I'm halfway through Inception

Whoever on my FList said this movie is just a big budget VR.5, with a male hero instead of a female one?

It totally is.

*misses VR.5*

haha, that was me. and it totally is, right? except with more plot holes!! (i am watching vr.5 right now!!)

I'm part way through, basically not trying to make sense of the mythology so I don't really know about plot holes yet. I am finding a lack of characterization, though. Even though I do like Ariadne a lot.

VR.5!!! Oh, for Oliver/Sydney fic!

[octette]

yessssss oliver/sydney. i would also like sydney/janine fic, although i might just write that for myself!

[giandujakiss]

They were great. I love that actress to bits.

I have this problem with so many movies. I just finished watching Inception a couple of days ago, and have been dipping into the fic, but I have so little feeling for the characters that it isn't doing too much for me.

Having been watching how much fic people are writing, I was hoping the characters would be strongly developed. Movies, in general, are hard for me because it usually takes me a long time to grow a love for a character, but I have become obsessed occasionally. Sadly, not this time.

Yeah, I still haven't finished the movie (I'm watching in installments), but so far, I'm not feeling any urge to read fic. I do sometimes get absorbed in characters from movies, but this one isn't doing it for me so far.
