That ending didn't need any clarifying whatsoever! It was plain and obvious for all who can think rationally. The spinning top slowed down and hesitated in its movement just moments before the screen turned black.

In the dreams it never did. It spinned around continuously. Therefore, he was in real life. Yay happy ending!

Isn't it obvious? If he was still dreaming he'd still be in that weird limbo level dream. As far as I understood the movie and the concept once you got to that level you either stayed there or you woke up, no moving to a happy/better dream middle ground.

You can form your own projections in limbo though. Speculation was Cobb made the reality where he goes back home and sees his kids, not escaping limbo...

I don't know. The way I understood limbo from the movie was that it wasn't like his other levels. It was more of a prison/sad level. The level where he dremt of his children was a higher level I thought. Maybe I just assumed that since limbo was portrayed so ugly and deteriorated in the movie.

Either way I assumed the top was going to fall :p

Well, look at Saito's limbo. He was massively rich, lived to old age and...owned an island, or something.

I'm not sure what was up with Fourth Level Limbo, though, with Mal and the collapsing buildings. Was that Cobb's limbo?

The 4th level was the one that Cobb & Mal created. Their own city constructed out of their imaginations. It is why they had their own childhood homes there.

Back from the dead, I'm afraid.
