Chapter 177 Did the gyroscope finally stop?

The story continues, and new settings are constantly being thrown out.

Arthur is brought up by two people, and the woman played by Bellucci points a gun at his head.

Cobb said, Mel, it's useless to threaten others in a dream.

Mel said it depends on how you threaten him, killing him would just wake him up, but hitting him hard...

As he was saying this, a gunshot suddenly hit Arthur in the leg, causing him to scream in pain.

The audience also understood that the scene here was really a dream.

If you are killed in a dream, you will wake up.

And suffering from all kinds of painful critical hits is really painful.

Cobb couldn't bear to see his brother suffer, so he threw himself on the table and slid forward, shooting him in the head. Arthur also woke up in the shabby room.

The whole process was done in one go and was extremely smooth.

Arthur seemed to have just woken up from a dream and was still dazed. He was stunned for a few seconds before he suddenly stood up and began to pack up his equipment.

The people who stayed in the old house said, you woke up too early...

"The dream has begun to collapse!"

In dreams, gunfights, shaking houses, falling statues, and bricks are not uncommon, but in order to wake Cobb up, he was pushed into the bathtub.

When it is transmitted to the lower dream state, the first shocking surreal shot of the film is produced, in which the entire Japanese palace is flooded.

The audience in the venue were all shocked as they watched the big screen switching back and forth between "falling into the bathtub" and "flooding the Golden Mountain".

Several directors were thinking about how to shoot this set of shots from a professional perspective.

In fact, this set of shots was shot in a studio. The special effects team built a huge scene inside the palace, and then stored a total of more than 20,000 liters of water in more than 20 water tanks carefully arranged at the windows of the scene.

These water tanks are opened one after another in sequence driven by a mechanism, and the effect of "flooding Jinshan Mountain" is produced.

On the big screen, Cobb and others fought and subdued the gun-wielding Saito, and continued to interrogate him.

Because Saito was on guard, he deliberately omitted the most crucial information.

On the streets, the rioting crowds were still smashing, burning and looting.

Those who stayed behind looked at the scene outside the window from time to time, looking very guilty.

The camera switched again and he appeared on the train, with Arthur and others sleeping on the seats nearby.

The audience in the venue all exclaimed in low voices. For example, Da Tiantian wondered why these people appeared on the train again!

Those who reacted quickly realized that the people in the old house were still in a dream.

Saito in the film also discovered this, because the people who stayed behind on the train saw that the time was up, so they put headphones on several of their accomplices and played music.

The people in the dream knew that the time was up. Cobb pretended to be furious and pushed Saito to the ground, who actually laughed.

"It's obviously a wool blanket, but it's made of polyester. This is not my private nest, Cobb. You really live up to your reputation. I'm still in the dream you designed!"

Now, the audience understood what was going on. It turned out to be a dream within a dream.

I have to say, the plot design of this section is really full of twists and turns, so clever!

Da Tiantian was very excited after understanding what was going on, and wanted to talk to someone, but unfortunately she didn't know the people around her very well.

Liu Yifei, Tang Yan, Yang Mi and others were all in the row behind her. If they had known earlier, they would not have sat so close to the front.

In the film, Cobb's operation failed and he got off the train early at Kyoto Station.

At night, he used a gyroscope in his room to make sure he was in reality, then answered a call from his daughter, saying that he couldn't go back yet.

Later, Arthur arrives and the two prepare to escape together. They go to the rooftop to board the helicopter, only to find that Saito has taken control of the situation. Instead of dealing with Cobb and Arthur, Saito wants Cobb to implant an idea in his competitor's mind to dissolve the company.

Cobb said it was difficult, and Saito used helping him return to the United States as a bargaining chip.

Cobb was still moved and went to Paris to meet his teacher (father-in-law) in search of a new "dream maker".

After some persuasion, Cobb met his teacher's favorite student, Ally Radney, played by Megan Fox.

To be honest, Megan Fox is so beautiful on the screen and doesn't look like a top student.

But men just like it and don’t care about those things.

After that, there are long sections of settings and explanations, such as how to set up the dream space, etc.

The audience can still roughly understand what is going on, but what interests them more are the shocking special effects shots.

Like the explosion on the streets of Paris, the male and female protagonists sat calmly in a roadside cafe, watching everything on the street explode and collapse.

The slow-motion presentation, coupled with opera arias, has a strong sense of ritual.

He turned the entire city upside down and folded it with his mind, shocking all the audience in the venue beyond words.

In their impression, Jiang Heng had already pushed special effects to the extreme, but they didn't expect that he could exceed everyone's imagination and shoot such a shocking shot.

The following shots surprised the audience even more. Jiang Heng actually took a lot of shots of looking directly into the mirror.

Because if you look directly into the mirror you will see the photographer, which will naturally expose your mistake.

Although I don’t know how Jiang Heng removed the bloopers, this set of shots is still extremely shocking.

The entire movie "Inception" is more than two hours and twenty minutes long. Although it is long, it does not seem bloated.

The main reason is that the film has many settings and a rich plot, coupled with shocking special effects shots and smooth fighting, after watching the whole movie, people feel a little unsatisfied.

But what the audience is most curious about is whether Cobb finally returns to the real world.

During the interview, a reporter directly raised this question.

Jiang Heng smiled and said, "The male protagonist must have returned to the real world!" Then he asked another person.

The reporter asked, "Why didn't the spinning top stop?"

Jiang Heng did not answer, saying that this question had already been answered and asked everyone to ask something else.

Originally in history, the gyroscope issue at the end of "Inception" caused quite a bit of controversy and has been talked about by movie fans for many years.

Some said that the last son and daughter the hero saw were still wearing the clothes he remembered, and their heights and backs had not changed, so it was obvious that he was still in a dream. After all, children grow very fast.

Some also say that at the end of the shot, the gyroscope is clearly about to fall down, which is in reality.

Some viewers even said that for the male protagonist, reality and dreams are no longer important, what is important is to be with the person he loves the most.

Afterwards, the event ended.

The guests followed the crew to the hotel banquet hall, and the reporters received their travel expenses and left.

We also interviewed the audience and asked them how they felt after watching the movie.

The vast majority of viewers said that the film has a novel setting, stunning visual effects, and a compact and smooth plot, making it another excellent work.

As for the previous rumors that the film was difficult to understand and incomprehensible, audiences said that the film was not as difficult to understand as rumored and was relatively easy to understand.

Of course, there are also some people who just watch the fun and don’t pay much attention to the plot. Even though they don’t understand what they see, they certainly can’t say they don’t understand when they are interviewed!
Director Tian Zhuangzhuang, who did not attend the dinner and left among the audience, was surrounded by several sharp-eyed reporters who asked him about his experience of the movie.

Tian Zhuangzhuang said that the plot is quite simple and there is nothing difficult to understand. It is a good commercial blockbuster!

The subtext is that this is just a popcorn movie and has nothing to do with art at all!
