Day 31: A letter to Inception fandom.

It's been a year since I joined the fandom, and it's been an incredible experience, even from the fringes of rarepairing. Inception is such a compelling source, and the fandom is equally so. I think I've rewatched it like fifty times by now xD But there are always new things to discover about the movie, and I love that it can be a space to escape to when I need a break, just by scrolling through the tags and discord chats.

Also, Inceptiversary is such a wonderful time - the watch parties are legendary, and the events are so cool! I love seeing everyone's thoughts and art and headcanons about the movie. People are so talented, and I'm endlessly inspired.

To many more years ahead, and sweet dreams!

[a-forger-and-a-point-man]

before it all begins: shoutout to the inceptiversary organizers and the mods running the watch parties and chats and bingo and questionnaires and events and auctions and-

you hold it all down. you make it happen. you keep this fandom's juices flowing. we see you. we appreciate you. we respect you. we are grateful.

[inceptiontrick-or-treat]

We had a dream last night that we were planning a Halloween party

In a big warehouse

And there was music

and costumes

and candy

and alcohol

and hay rides

and a haunted house

and a cake walk

and all of you were there.

And then we realized…

… yeah, it’s probably time to start planning.

WE’RE BACK, BABY.

For the third year running, please join us for Inception Trick-Or-Treat. We’ll be making some changes this season, so watch this space for more news.

For now, keep enjoying Inceptiversary, and start thinking spooky thoughts!

oh my god. exactly!!! that is exactly THE BEST moment in the the entire soundtrack. that transition is so so good. its like that breath you take after holding it watching for the top to fall over and then theres these almost mysterious notes that prompt you to THINK over what just happened and all you can do is smile coz the experience of that movie was everything. hans zimmer did that really good!

Right? And you’re sitting there, waiting for the top to fall, because surely he’s made it back to reality, right? And you wait. And wait. And wait. And those last few piano notes from Time play.

The top wobbles.

Smash cut to black.

The Dream is Collapsing starts.

Directed by Christopher Nolan.

It’s hard to properly convey the feeling I get when I see that. Every damn time. I think I pointed it out rather gleefully at pretty much every Inception watch party on the discord this past Inceptiversary, lol. But I only bring it up because goddamn does it slap.
