Filmdogs Video | “Star Wars Inception Edition”
Star Wars Inception Edition
As far as I’m concerned Christopher Nolan’s Inception is the movie of the year. It’s a rare breathtaking piece of summer action entertainment that treats it’s audience with respect, is filled with awe inspiring thrills, and packs an emotional punch. It’s no wonder the internet can’t stop taking about the movie. (It’s still a trending topic on twitter after nearly a month in release) It’s also inspired those with a lot of free time, like myself to create graphics, videos, and write theories about the film. So, we at here at Filmdogs have tried to bring you the best Inception goodies possible, even a ringtone of the musical kick in the picture.
However, it’s the phenomenon of the many video mashups that has really caught my attention. What do you get when you cross the now famous Inception trailer featuring Zach Hemsey’s famous “bruhmmm” notes with other movies like Bill and Ted or Toy Story 3?
Well, after seeing those attempts I thought, why not try to create an Inception mashup my myself? What film would I chose? The answer is easy for those that know anything about my geeky nature. Star Wars. And if you have half as good of a time watching the mashup as I did creating it, I’ll be over the moon…or space station. Read the rest of this entry »
Can’t get enough Inception? I have the cure.
For those that still have the Inception itch and are starting to feel the pains of withdrawal, fear not! There have been a lot of Inception related goodies floating around the web lately, and I’m happy to share them with all who aren’t afraid to dream a little bigger. Plus, I’ve created a special Inception related present for all you iPhone owners out there.
First up, we have a few images or “infographics” that explain the various dream levels of the film’s climax. Whether or not you think they are needed to explain things doesn’t effect their coolness factor. Here’s the first image from Last exit to Nowhere.

The Dream Team | Review of “Inception”
Over the past ten years director Christopher Nolan has delivered more enthralling motion pictures to audiences than any other film director. His tomatometer proves it, each of his six films this past decade have scored a 75% or higher rating. From Memento to The Prestige to the Batman films he knows how to both entertain the masses, and tell intelligent stories. So, it’s no surprise that his latest film, the much anticipated “mind heist” picture Inception, is the culmination of all his cinematic talents. Believe the hype. Inception is a masterpiece that puts every penny of it’s 200 million dollar budget on screen, and delivers a powerful emotional punch.

I Walk Through the Valley of the Shadow of Death | Rental Review of “The Book of Eli”
After an eight year absence from directing, Allen and Albert Hughes return with the Denzel Washington starring vehicle The Book of Eli. I am a fan of both Denzel Washington and The Hughes Brothers, so I was on board with this project from the beginning. I thought at the very least I would be marveling at how well crafted everything is on screen. From the burnt to a crisp landscape to Washington’s action hero cool. However, I did not expect a film that would offer me food for thought. The Book of Eli is something that has been missing from theaters of late. An action film with brains and a heart.

Across the Pond | United Kingdom’s “Bronson”
Bronson is the true life tale of England’s most violent prisoner, Michael Peterson “aka” Charles Bronson. He took the name of the famous American movie star because it added a little theatricality to what was otherwise a dull persona. Growing up in 1970s England was tough for a middle class man like himself. Jobs and the celebrity Bronson craved were hard to come by, that was until a petty crime landed him a seven year jail sentence. Bronson had found his stage and the rest was history.
