We believe that Nolan's latest movie takes us into the mind, and lets us step inside a person's dreams. This video below, which was taken from the sidelines on the Inception shoot, shows a freight train barreling down the middle of the street — something possible only in your dreams. The whole thing is delightfully off-putting and... well, dream-like. Which is probably exactly what Nolan wants, and we're excited to see more. The next two clips show what seem to be a firefight, and a driving sequence.

Okay so clearly we just had some fun with Nic Cage and Superman toys, but why stop with the Tim Burton movie? What if he was Cyborg Superman, or Zombie Superman... and so on. And while we're at it, what about these guys for the big red-and-blue blur? Just throwing it out there: Jon Hamm as Superman seems like a good idea:

But in all seriousness we want to know what you think about the original image, which we ran the other day. Real, or bad Photoshop job?

The official synopsis is as vague as the trailer...

A CEO-type becomes involved in a blackmailing scandal.

But we do know that Leo is the CEO and his villain is Ken Watanabe, who is pretty fantastic in just about everything, but not as great as that spinning top! What the heck does it all mean? And please let these hallway fights stay clear from Matrix territory.

Eating Class points out that water seems to be a pretty pivotal part of this film as it's in just about every scene, even the one with the top. Also in the fight scenes with Joseph Gordon-Levitt prancing about, "people are subject to their environments, not the other way around." Check out the site for a full breakdown.

Also, the film now has an official website: InceptionMovie.

We spoke to Scott last year, and he confirmed that he was planning to film Brave New World, but with a screenwriter in place and more meetings happening, it sounds as though the project is being moved onto the fast track.

The Hollywood Reporter's Risky Business blog says Scott and DiCaprio will produce the film through Universal Studios, and "Scott will produce with an eye to direct." And DiCaprio is still on board to star in the project, since he doesn't have anything lined up after he finishes filming Christopher Nolan's Inception. And a writer has been announced: Farhad Safinia, writer of Apocalypto.

THR thinks DiCaprio would play Bernard, who starts to question the decadent, destructive values of the false utopia he lives in. And the Guardian's Ben Child is already raising some worries that this choice will water down the film's dynamic:

I'm aware that this is going to solicit a torrent of posts berating me for suggesting that the film has to be exactly like the book, but in Huxley's tale, Bernard faces the scorn of society because, despite being a member of the elite Alpha Plus class, he is short, like the mindless Epsilons (and also because he adopts an individualist attitude and spurns Soma). The tall, handsome DiCaprio seems uniquely unsuited to play him - an actor such as Philip Seymour Hoffman or Paul Giamatti springs to mind - though it should be remembered that the actor has done a fine job playing troubled outsiders before, notably in Martin Scorsese's The Departed (not so much in The Beach, where his golden boy good looks completely destroyed the book's dynamic).

Since DiCaprio's production company, Appian Way, owns the movie rights to the novel, there's probably no way to keep him out of it in any case.

But it's still tremendous cause for excitement that Scott — a mere couple years after suggesting that science fiction was dead — is now being linked to three projects: the Alien prequel, Brave New World, and The Forever War. Let's hope we see one of those in the next few years. [THR]

McFarlane tells MTV News that he'd like to cast DiCaprio in his remake-that's-not-a-remake. Not that DiCaprio would play the undead antihero. "The main character isn't Spawn, per se, it's the guy chasing Spawn," McFarlane told MTV News. That is, DiCaprio would play a detective — but a new character, not fan faves Sam or Twitch. McFarlane said the film would play as a Godfather-like crime drama in which DiCaprio's character would come to discover that something supernatural and diabolical is going on beyond the usual cops-and-robbers stuff.

Why DiCaprio, who McFarlane says was always in the back of his mind for the role? "It's a big wish, but his dad was a big fan of underground comic books and he came from that," McFarlane told MTV. "It's not a big special-effects movie, it's a character movie, so I could shoot it in 40-50 days and you don't have to budget that much time."

No word, of course, on whether DiCaprio is actually interested or available, or whether comic book readers might not prefer to see someone a little more, um, rugged hunting down Spawn. Still, given the shift in focus, we won't be the first to holler, "YARM!" Your mileage, however, may vary.

All we know about Nolan's next work is that it's a "contemporary sci-fi actioner set within the architecture of the mind." So that could mean a vast number of things from tinkering with one character's cerebral cortex to mind-wiping an entire planet. (Or it could be another Matrix-style virtual world adventure.)

Either way, I'm happy to see Leo take such an interest in science fiction. Let's not forget, he's paired up with Ridley Scott for their Brave New World film, if Scott can ever find the time to make before or after his Forever War adaption.

Why did you decide to adapt Brave New World into a movie, why do you want to make this story?

I didn't choose to do it, someone came to me with it. In fact it was Leo's [Leonardo DiCaprio's] production company that came to me with that. And it's a big challenge, in fact. Because when you look at the two players or visionaries in the field, at that moment [it] would be Huxley and it would be Orwell and that was 60 or 75 years ago. They were predictions in a way, they weren't aware at the time, but they were predictions. One could argue that Orwell kind of got there first and Orwell was closer to the notion of "big brother," [with the] Cold War. But I don't think that's it, I think that big brother may be the internet. I don't know but I think that's the way it's going to go. And so the Aldous Huxley's [novel] literally what is called Brave New World that's a very hard adaptation. So we're still dancing with that one, but it's a challenge.

Have you finished the script or are you close?

No, no no we're still struggling with that one. I have 40 things on the go at once. But that's a very important one. And sometimes, some surface faster than the others. It's partly luck of the draw. Even with a good writer, he'll do it and screw up. So then you go back to the table and start all over again, it's hard. The hardest single thing is getting it on paper.

I'm very excited about Leo's involvement.

Oh yeah, he is perfect for it.

So while we wait for what will undoubtedly be an amazing look into a classic story, and find out what kind of new spins Ridley will throw in (will there still the year of "our Ford"?) Scott's new movie Body of Lies is out October 10th.

The plot is right out of a Pearl Jam song, or the headlines of a newspaper. When two bullies at school start knocking Ben around for his milk money, the lines between game and real life become blurred. Epect some angsty teen ass-kicking and emo music. Flemish director Nic Balthazar is working on the U.S. version of the film, and he is searching for "The new Leonardo DiCaprio" to star.
