I just saw the theatrical trailer looks very intruiging and liking the cast might I add.

But the whole time I was watchung I kept thinking PAPRIKA!!!!

Paprika is an anime masterpeice by visionary director Satoshi KOn

Anyone else agree?

I haven't a clue about anime.

But your talkings of Paprika got me to thinking about...

Yes, upon entering this thread, I thought you were comparing a movie to a food spice.

The two do seem relatively similar. Although, the Paprika soundtrack demolishes Inception.

Just finished watching. I can CLEARLY see where someone could draw Paprika into this, but, i think the guy behind this movie might've just thought of the concept on his own. ....Maybe. >_>

The trailer definitely seems to go into an awfully large amount of depth...

Paprika seemed kinda weird to me..Inception has really interested me tho. Maybe because the its by Chris Nolan :P. I dont think they should be compared though.

At least he wasn't comparing sex to food spice. Or maybe I have my definitions mixed up?

Now that you mention it, it does somewhat seem similar which really isn't a bad thing.

Why are they using the same cinematography as the dark knight?

Maybe because The Dark Knight's cinematography was great..

Paprika is an awesome anime. If Inception has the same basic concept like Paprika, then it'll probably going to be awesome.

Doesn't really remind me of Paprika. They're both about dreams, but that's about it.
