We're guessing you haven't thought about Donald Duck even once today. Sure, Disney's
cartoon
ducks are some of the most iconic characters around -- Uncle Scrooge, his nephews
Huey, Dewey
and Louie, and of course, their half-naked uncle with anger control issues, Donald. But
it's not like
they're relevant to your life at all.
Oh, you couldn't be more wrong. For the last 50 years, these ducks have been busy
changing the
goddamn world, and it continues right to this moment. Seriously.
#5. Scrooge McDuck Did Inception First
I
nception was the biggest film release in a long time, and audiences and critics alike gushed over how
original it was. It pioneered such innovative story mechanics as dream sharing, thought theft, psychological
limbo and escaping the subconscious through specific triggers, or "kicks." Those are, no doubt brilliant
devices. Devices that, to a one, can be traced back
to Scrooge McDuck.
In a 2002 comic book, eight years before
Christopher Nolan's little dream exploration film,
Scrooge got his mind hijacked by the Beagle Boys.
The Boys were trying out new careers as dream-
thieves and went into Scrooge's mind to steal the
secret combination of his vault. If this sounds
vaguely familiar, it's because that's exactly how
Inception opens up, except you have to replace
DiCaprio with talking dogs. Which, incidentally,
would probably improve every single one of his
movies.
