Huh? I must have missed that completely. Coop's daughter is playing with model of the Lunar lander. It might be a toy you can still buy but its not like she was showing the brand of it to the camera. The model is also a key element in the film and the story. It is the first science of the "ghost", it reminds us that Coop is a pilot and believes science. It also reminds us that Murphy believes science too, which is what gets her into trouble at school.

I actually love this part because it suggests that since they teach in school that landing on the moon was faked and never happen, that the politicians behind denying science won, and they might have been the ones responsible for fucking up the planet. Subtle jab? You betcha.

Wow... !! Foxy, I urge you give Inception another watch and pay really close attention to it. The ending is one of the coolest most amazing endings I've ever seen. At the very last frame of the movie, the spinning top wobbles. If you blink, you missed it, and then poof, black screen. The top is his characters self-test to know if he is dreaming or not. You also never see the children faces until the last 30 seconds of the movie. This musical cues are also the Edith Plaif song, slowed down. Nolan is trying to tell you something very important here but he doesn't want to show you - he wants you to realize it, or at least think about it.

Cheers
