“Inception Explained” – HTML5 site explains Inception plot in just a few mouse scrolls

The Next Web staff writers are smart cookies, so not only did we totally understand the movie Inception, we could have even made it better if we put our minds to it.

That said, there may be a handful of people on this planet that didn’t quite grasp the plot of the 2010 flick. OK, a lot of people. OK, pretty much everyone other than us.

Alright, alright, it was freaking confusing to us as well, damnit!

Anyways, for the poor souls who were a bit thrown off by the movie’s complex plot, Web user interface and experience designer Matt Dempsey (who briefly interned at Facebook as a product designer) has created and launched Inception Explained, an interactive animated infographic meant to clear up the confusion digitally.
