Movie: Mission Impossible: Fallout (7-27-18)

^^ cruise is basically the co-director of the mcquarrie's.

[bodysnatcher]

at 18:00 when he's climbing into the helicopter, he doesn't even look strapped in (??)

[VinylGuy]

He jumped off a plane with James Corden and did it alone, and laughing his ass off the whole time. Tom must be Superman.

[evenslow]

If Superman was a witting participant in a cult that separates families, sure.

Whenever there's active promotion on the part of somebody else, whenever I see somebody all dolled up for a fancy photograph and someone's handing out flyers or whenever there's active promotion for something like that, as an imposition on my day, I hate all those people and I want them to fail. I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Based on all the insane praise everyone everywhere is heaping on this, I’m guessing I will think it is just okay at best. Sigh.

I just saw this. If you come out thinking it’s just okay, you don’t really know shit about movies. I had high expectations for this from the start, and it surpassed all of them. I place it between Raiders and T2 in my top 3 action movies of all time.

Raiders and T2 are overrated

Bold statement! Makes me look forward to seeing it this weekend!

[E.H. Ruddock]

Also, sorry daft, but if T2 and Raiders are your top action movies of all time, you are either doing it wrong or need to see more action movies

[bada]

Raiders is perfect.

[LoathedVermin72]

Raiders is a great movie, but severely flawed. Every time I revisit it, I come away a little shocked by its reputation, because it has MAJOR pacing problems. A lot of that mid section is just dead. Temple and Crusade are both vastly superior; they really had the “formula” down perfectly with those.

[Strat]

mostly i just love it when Daft Twat posts

Interesting. I feel the same way but about Crusade. I love it but I've always felt it was the weakest of the original three. At least we can agree Temple rocks!

Here’s a Raiders opinion nobody shares: I can’t stand Marion. I think she’s waaaaaay more annoying than Willie. I would have much rather seen Willie become Indy’s permanent love interest. It would have been cool to see her progress as a character.

Also, I am sad that Short Round never returned.

I agree

I agree

[bada]

I can't agree with Marion in Raiders though she was beyond horrible in Crystal Skull and their kid Mutt was a travesty. Short Round is the best though. We really should have gotten two more Indy movies in the 90s with Short Round as Indy's adopted son.

[VinylGuy]

Temple was always my favorite. And yes, i never cared much for Marion.
