You mean people who don’t turn a blind eye to spokesmen for fraud and the destruction of families? They can hang out with me anytime.

You just offended 1.2 billion Catholics.

Well, this thread was fun while it lasted....

Theology : Impossible.

In fairness, I loved the original and MI3. As long as he never ever portrays Jack Reacher again, I’m content.

They should milk this franchise as fast as possible. Cruise will be 60 years old in 2022.

That's what I like to see... actual action set pieces and stunt scenes, especially the kind that you have only one take to get right. Disney would've just used a CGI train and it would've been horrible. I think that this is one of the reasons why I've grown to appreciate the M:I franchise. It's resisted the trend toward CGIing everything that most other franchises have embraced (which is ironic because it started out as a franchise that embraced CGI for its impressive unmasking scenes).

I'm assuming it will be extra footage not used in the first five (six? seven?) or whatever and just spliced together.

There is almost a 100% chance they will either:

a) recast Ethan Hunt like they do with James Bond
b) introduce another character to takeover for Hunt in Cruise's last MI movie

More likely b).

There's a decent chance Cruise will stay involved as producer beyond his starring roles in the movies, and also a decent chance he plays some "supervisor" character at some point.

Interesting twitter thread and article about the filming issues and cost overruns on these films



Filming was supposed to start the same time restrictions were going in place in Italy, with their initial shoot planned for Venice.

What exactly would be sequel?

Aliens were defeated at end ,, To bring on more aliens in another invasion would be potentially terrible movie ala Independence Day 2

ID4-2 was terrible, but that doesn't mean an Edge of Tomorrow sequel would be.

edit - oops, didn't realize this was a 2 year old post haha.

Trailer for Mission Impossible Dead Reckoning Part One leaked on social media, looks incredible!

 

[S E P H]

Holy smokes, I totally forgot about this series. 'Til this very day, I still remember how absolutely brutal and awful MI: 2 was lol. Whereas, I thought MI: 3 is still the most underrated.

Nice. Last time there was a short trailer to upcoming full trailer.

Take my money, Tom Cruise.

 

[CokenoPepsi]

Damn delays really hurt this.

Was thinking it would be fall or Christmas this year

 

[EXTRAS]

Good trailer

Love the Esai Morales casting as the villain. He was awesome as Deathstroke in DC Titans.

Yeah I was hoping to see him do more after Titans, good for him.

Although I think these last two films are it for Cruise in traditional A-list action roles- even with all the work he's had done you can see the age really starting to creep in. Nothing saying he can't transition into more of the kind of films that Neeson does, but the days of him dyeing everything and playing 20 years younger are over.

 

[Brodeur]

I marked out when I heard Kittridge's voice. Crazy to think I was in still in high school when MI1 was released. If you had told me that the franchise would have still been going after MI2, I would have been shocked.

Really hope Jeremy Renner's 'William Brandt' comes back for this one or the final one, even if it's just a cameo. Need that Ghost Protocol & Rogue Nation team back.

I know they wanted him to come back for a cameo that would've involved him sacrificing himself for the team on Fallout but he declined cause he didn't want his character to die yet or something. Wasn't able to join them cause his schedule was full with Marvel stuff.

Anyways, the teaser looks awesome, so excited for these movies ever since Ghost Protocol.

What's the general opinion on Mission Impossible vs James Bond films recently? Not sure if it's a controversial one, but my opinion -- MI is better if you're comparing it against the Craig era of Bond films. Just a more entertaining and fun movie experience.

I'm not a fan of the Craig era of Bond films. He has no charisma and the films are exhaustingly serious. The MI films, at least from the last decade, have been more enjoyable and fun like Bond films should be, IMO.
