I know! I thought the Fischers were fascinating and I really wanted to see more about them.
Oh, also, question-- Did you think the ending was a joke? Someone else just commented and thought the ending was saying that he was in a dream-- I thought that the whole point of that last shot was that Nolan cut the shot before you could tell if the top was going to fall-- it looked and sounded like it was about to spin down-- and from the way the audience cracked the hell up at it, I assumed everyone thought the same thing, that he deliberately left it up in the air as a sort of "booyah! You all thought I was going to do this thing but I am not!" joke. Which I thought was fucking hilarious, but apparently not everyone read it that way.
