Inception Viral with Christopher Nolan Scott Caldwell, April 23, 2010June 12, 2010 If the film Inception doesn’t throw your head in twenty different directions while watching the trailer, then it’s about to get a few more places. In the video that follows, we see what seems to start out as a film clip of the director Christopher Nolan interviewing specialists in the field of sleep and dreams. But something happens during the video. Things are said that could give you a better glimpse into the film itself. Take a look after the jump. The following video starts off looking like Nolan is trying to get some information to make his film as real as possible, but keep watching the video. The lady in the glasses seems to know a little extra info that peaks Nolan’s attention. Take a look. One doctor in the video refers to the military’s involvement as “Project Somnacin”, which if you remember, was a viral clue in the second stage on the mind-crime site, also know as the “dream machine”. Is the military forcing people to sleep in order to get more control? Possibly use it to create soldiers? Maybe DiCaprio is the one to spoil the fun? Hell, maybe we should just keep an eye out for a new viral site! What do YOU think? As if the film wasn’t trippy enough, they have to throw this in. Does it make it a little easier to follow now? The July 16th release date is coming up quick, and we still have two more stages to go through. Source: Arrow In The Head and video from NolanFans Viral Marketing Christopher NolanInception
