So there I was in the movie theater, munching on popcorn and playing Brickbreaker on the Blackberry.  In only a few short minutes, I’d finally see Quentin Tarantino’s latest film…something I’ve obsessed about since reading the script last summer.  It was Avatar Day and Inglorious Basterds opening day, but I suddenly realized (again) that it was also the trailer release of the secret little film called Inception. When the Warner Bros. logo appeared, I squealed and clapped like a little girl catching a live glimpse of the Jonas Brothers. It was here…

The trailer has about 15 seconds of actual film footage, but it’s a teaser that will make you curse the release date (Summer 2010).  For those who saw The Dark Knight in IMAX, you are probably still haunted by the Hans Zimmer pounding, screeching score throughout the film.  It kept you on the edge of your seats as it boomed throughout.  Zimmer has teamed up with Christopher Nolan (TDK) again, so please turn up the volume when watching this teaser.  I feel that the full effect of this teaser will not be felt through your computer screen, but at least you’ll get an idea of how wacked out cool this film might be.

Inception boasts an impressive cast alongside a superstar director.  Leonardo DiCaprio, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Ellen Page, Marion Cotillard, Cillian Murphy, Michael Caine, Tom Berenger, Lukas Haas, and Ken Watanabe.

My initial reaction to the trailer went straight to thoughts of The Matrix.  But it’s a psychological thriller, NOT a CGI heavy tentpole event.  Enjoy and expect to hear lot’s o’ news on this one as it’s one of our 2010 Obsessions.
