Somebody, somewhere once said that the human mind is like a maze. That saying became a cliche over time; and that maze theme has been used in various art forms an infinite number of times- and the latest to join the list, in the feature films category, would be "Inception".

Eagerly anticipated by fans of Christopher Nolan, who has earlier directed such overwhelming films like Batman Begins and The Dark Knight, "Inception" brings together a cast of Oscar-winning actor Leonardo diCaprio, Marion Cotillard, Ellen Page, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Tom Hardy, Ken Wantabe, Michael Caine and others. The film releases in IMAX and regular theaters on July 16th, 2010.

Warner Brothers released the first official poster on December 16th 2009. It was apparently nothing but an aerial view of a maze of buildings that formed the word "Inception" in all caps. The second poster, which shows bears an uncanny resemblance to one of the posters of "The Dark Knight" showed Leonardo diCaprio with his back to the camera, dressed in a formal suit and standing in knee-high water with some sort of a weapon in his right hand. It was revealed on December 22nd. The third poster came out as recently as April 29th. It shows some of the most important characters standing on what looks like just another wide avenue framed on both sides by buildings- except that this particular avenue stretches on in the background, and not horizontally, but vertically. Plus, the characters carry sophisticated weapons.

Other promotional activities undertaken by Warner Brothers included the screening of the official first, second, and third trailers for the film before screenings of Inglorious Basterds (August '09), Sherlock Holmes (December '09) and Iron Man 2 respectively.

Christopher Nolan has personally written the plot of the movie and adapted it into a screenplay. Throughout the making of the film, and even in its promos, an unprecedented amount of secrecy was employed, and all that was known about the plot was that it was
a "contemporary sci-fi actioner set within the architecture of the mind".
