@aakashgupta When can we look forward to a post about how much India’s film industry has ripped off from the rest of the world?

Inception came out in 2006 for $4 million. Christopher Nolan's $160 million version arrived four years later. The original director died five weeks after Nolan's opened. His name was Satoshi Kon. The film was called Paprika. Same dream-sharing technology premise. Same Japanese businessman hiring the team. Same physics-defying hallways. Same elevator descending through layers of subconscious. Same dream architect character. Kon's entire production budget was less than what Warner Bros spent on Inception trailers. The marketing campaign alone was $100 million, 25x Paprika's full production cost. Paprika opened in two US theaters. Total overseas gross outside Japan: $944,915. Inception grossed $839 million worldwide and won four Oscars. International box office gap: roughly 890 to 1. Kon's crew of 50 at Madhouse worked from his hand-drawn storyboards. The dream parade, the warping corridor, the character who becomes the media they consumed too much of. 30 months from planning to completion with fewer people than a modern Pixar lighting department. The part nobody talks about: Kon was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in May 2010. Inception opened July 16. He died August 24. He was 46. He made four completed features in his entire career. Perfect Blue. Millennium Actress. Tokyo Godfathers. Paprika. His follow-up Dreaming Machine was shut down permanently because his team said no one else could finish it. Darren Aronofsky bought rights to Perfect Blue to recreate the bathtub scream shot in Requiem for a Dream. The bone structure of every serious dream-logic film made since 2000 traces back to four movies Kon finished in Tokyo on budgets Hollywood rounds off. The industry found the storyboards. They just never paid the storyboard artist.

"Eu sei por que vocês estão aqui. Eu acordei hoje de manhã em um hotel aqui perto, e tinha um cara sarado, sem camisa, e ele estava do lado de fora do meu quarto gritando: “JUSTIN BIEBEEEEER!” Eu estou aqui pelo Bieber também, honestamente. Eles nem me pagaram; disseram que eu podia ficar do lado do palco e eu falei: 'ok, fechado'. Estou brincando, eles nunca me deixariam ficar do lado do palco, eu tenho certeza." — Julian Casablancas conversando com a plateia do #STROKESCHELLA sobre o Justin Bieber.

BREAKING: Taco Bell says its new "Bordito Crunch Quadruple Cheese & Quintuple Beef Supreme" is too dangerous for public release. A number of partners have tried the product in preview mode. Each got explosive diarrhea that requires 10x standard Imodium dose. More testing to come.
