So I'm thinking I was understanding everything up until the last 5 seconds of the movie, when his spinning thing kept spinning. So was this whole movie about Cobb being in limbo?

There is no answer. It's meant to be ambiguous, and Nolan won't say whether it's real or not. I don't think he even knows.

The ending was/wasn't real because *insert misc. theory here.*

I took it as none of it was real. I also thought that maybe his dad was trying to " inception " him.

I dunno. Pretty good movie tho

It was real. The top started to wobble at the end. If he was in limbo it would spin flawlessly forever.

Didn't even know what it was and saw it and loved it, then went to see it again to get "really into" all the possible theories and shit and got ripped beforehand and absolutely hated it. So I don't know how I feel about it. It seems pretty clear that the top is wobbling at the end meaning it was real though

Wanted to die every time they started that "waiting for a train" nonsense
