Lovable Cockney Spoils 'Inception'
"I don't mean to be a stickler here, but anything Michael Caine says about Christopher Nolan's intended meaning for Inception's ending technically qualifies as heresy.

Remind me why I give a fuck about Inception.
I didn't go see it, mostly because I don't want to have to work that hard to figure out what the hell is even going on.
Um, in the original quote it's supposed to be "hearsay" not "heresy" though that is a pretty awesome misquote.
