I read somewhere that it took him eight years to complete the script, so you may be right.

You need to read Gary Westfahl's review, it's just as trippy as the movie.

This is a copy and paste from the other thread as it was much easier than typing it all again:
Absolutely brilliant movie that kept me going throughout the whole experience. Brilliantly acted and directed. Complex but not so much that you can't follow what's going on and will provide further rewards on repeated viewings.
Makes The Matrix look like a kids story and completely shats all over the sequels. Intelligent, action packed, funny in small parts, and thought provoking.
It was nice to see that Ellen Page and Marion Cotillard weren't just cast as token females and actually played major parts in the overall story.
The fight scenes were incredible especially knowing that Nolan used as little CGI as possible and instead went for revolving rooms.
As for what the film was about and how it played out then that's something I'm not ready to commit to yet. Obviously the broad message is live in reality not in dreams but there was so much more to it. I have a couple of decent theories and some other ideas floating around in my brainpan but I only saw it a few hours ago and it hasn't had time to settle yet.
This is probably gonna be my film of the year as I can't think of anything being released later this year that could beat it. A rare breed amongst the dredge of pointless remakes, dumb comedies, kiddie-fied action and non-scary horror movies.
