Back to the real world, the world of technology is also already exists a tool to read people’s minds, through an MRI scanner that takes images of the brain activity of someone. The study also stated there is a possibility that one day will find tools that can record a person dreams. As for the drug that makes one other person accessing the bed seemed indeed impossible, but there are several types of medicines that can make people sleep so soundly.

In Inception, this team of dream thieves has the skills to control the victim’s dreams. They design the events and settings. But in the real world is it possible we can control the dream?

Script writer / producer of this film, Jeff Warren has written his investigation about dreams. “Without sensory input, consciousness emerged in ways that can not be predicted. The laws of the informal conclusions can be drawn in, for example, the ‘law of self-fulfilling Expectations of (what you expect to happen will happen), law of Narrative momentum (for too long live in a place and a dream world so chaotic),”
