Spinning top from Inception movie:

The controversial ending of the Inception movie with a new iconic movie prop resulted in more discussion. The main story is about the personal totem that can tell quickly that a person is experiencing a dream, or he/she is living in reality. Cobb, the central role of Inception, also wanted to check the truth behind this matter. Therefore, he started to spin the top. If the top spun indefinitely, then he might be stuck in someone’s dream. But if it gets toppled, he will be present in the real world. When he started to spin the top, the screen went to black color, and people couldn’t get the outcome. It created a lot of confusion in the fan’s mind.

Scott Maginnis was the designer of all props used in the Inception movie. Although there were numerous props used in the film, no one could beat the class of Cobb’s spinning top. Because of its story, it became the most popular and iconic prop, but it was also a source of great debate, and frustration for diehard fans who were expecting a clear-cut outcome at the end.
