Scrooge McDuck comic book plot anticipated the movie Inception by 8 years
Some striking similarities there. (And it's a darn good comic book, to boot!)
I read the comic book over my lunch break. It really is like Inception- with beaks!

(even though Nolan's idea for Inception pre-dates the comic)

Ok, is this spoilers then? I read the comic too and haven't seen the movies yet! Still gonna see it.

Ha, I was just reading this when I came here (the pages are slow to load so I've been surfing in between). Some pretty good similarities (i.e. falling always wakes you up) though I think a lot of that can be marked down to these coming from peoples actual experiences with dreaming)

dabitch: I wouldn't say you've spoiled (spoilered?) yourself by reading the comic. The similarities are kind of fun if you've seen the movie, but the stories are apples and oranges.

On the inspiration for Betty Boop ... || Car repair = $1000 less than I thought it would be.
