Mission Impossible 5: Rogue Nation 07/31/15 Trailer PG1

i guess renner turned down the appearance so he is open to return in the future sequels...
Very smart decision.

**** on him as Hawkeye but I've been warming to him overall as an actor.

Smart move to pass up dying to get a possibly better role in the next movie. Like might be a long shot but dude could be the next secretary for the IMF or temporary sec running the squad.

Said it before but I also want Maggie Q and Paula Patton back.

Never been a super clear scope of the IMF. Like how many agents they got. It was cool to see the homey Sawyer in GP which opened the door to clearly the IMF being more than Ethan Hunt. Like during Ghost Protocol when the IMF got shut down I wonder how many othsr agents were left un the wind and how many were brought it in.

Plus I have been thinking of the future of these MI movies. Tom can't do it forever and I know he'll try even when he's 70 but at some point it'll have to change hands to keep the franchise alive.

Good move by Renner here...After I finished watching Fallout I had a gut feeling that we’d see him in the next movie as the head of IMF...Afterall he was gravitating towards the political side of things in Rogue Nation...Who knows, maybe that’s why they decided to off Alec Baldwin...

This...
 
The one issue I had with the movie in the beginning was the fact that they brought both Benji and Luther in as part of the team...Usually each team member has a specific function...A function which is their specialty...Both Benji and Luther are tech specialists of course, so I was sitting there scratching my head as to what the use was for two of the same speacialists...

Then fast forward to the end of the film...Two bombs, both need the steady hand of a tech specialist to successfully disarm...It’s a testament to how tightly this films plot was written...
 
His character was confirmed to die in this film?

Actually after reading what they intended for Renner's character he may have been the only IMF member to be killed in Fallout.

Its a common thing they do even to famous actors of big franchises especially when Tom is the integral part to it. Almost everybody else is expendable. On a side note, the day they kill Luther is the day Tom and the writers have ran out of stakes. The day they fake kill Luther though I might not forgive them :lol:

Like I was not even phased when dude had the gun on Luther to start. Had no faith he would die. Even if he got shot :lol:

Benji better watch out though :nerd:

Yeah McQuarrie basically says in that Collider article up there...Luther is safe...:lol:

I think, at this point, once Renner passed on the death scene cameo they flipped him with Alec...They wrote this movie with the idea that a main character would be killed off to add some weight...It worked the way they did it though...
 
Yeah, a random lackey killing/blowing up Renner doesnt compare to Alec getting some hits in on WalkerLark just for him to shank him during a firefight.
 
Watching Fallout again now.

This nuclear specialist laugh during that con :rofl: Wheez laugh :lol:

Angela Basset is so damn sexy :evil: Her intro, that walk.

Sean Harris is so great as Solomon Lane. His mannerisms are the best. From back when Ethan trapped him in the box and he started shooting and then tried to cope with the knockout gas to how he prepped to down as the armored truck sank. Just entertaining how he immerses himself and gets the viewer to ride along with.

Harris is bringing some real intensity to this. I only knew him previously from the Borgias where he was great with the same intensity but while the quiet reserved type did speak more.


EDIT

I actually do have some nitpicks after watching again despsite still loving the movie:
  • Ethan had more than enough time to put the case of plutonium in the trunk of the car that Benji drove right in front of him before the countdown for killing Luther finished. Especially enough time to shoot Luther in his vest.
  • Yo why did nobody put Lane in the truck of the car in Paris? :lol No random cop sees anything wrong, no way Ilsa gets any shots at him. Why have Lane ride shotgun? :lol With a damn bag over his head to be like yeah he's the escaoed prisoner? I find this so funny cuz by the end of the movie when Sloane and Hunt deliver Lane to the British via trunk and the British are smart enough to put him in their trunk as well :lol
  • I noticed this the first time I saw it but Angela's character, the head if the CIA or w/e, Erica Sloane, sure did change her tune out of the blue. No real personal confrontation to prove her feelings changed. She was so salty Walker was Lark and the Secretary and IMF figured it out shes like I can't trust Imma take yall all in. That blows up in her face cuz the CIA has been infiltrated. Then after the IMF saves a third of the world she gives this voice over thank you speech about the world needs tue IMF and ppl like Ethan. Where the **** did that come from? :lol

7.5 / 8

- Tom and team did a stellar job showing the scope of the settings / environments. The shots were A++ and the variety in action scenes too. Everything felt larger than life yet grounded.
- Tom riding the bike through Paris makes me want a damn bike.
- I now understand why Cavill chose the mustache > JL, but I never felt the Lark character was on Hunt's level in the movie. He didn't seem threatening at all beyond what they said about him.
- They killed off Ethan/Julia to make way for Ethan/Ilsa?
- Shoutout to them showing Solomon had the hands and wasn't just a frailboy ex-agent.
- Rhames really nailed that heart-to-heart with Ferguson. You really understand Ethan's character as the guy who's loyal and engenders that loyalty from his team. It sounded like he was speaking from his heart (he had tears in his eyes no?). :frown:
 
ethan hunt>usain bolt

renner not wanting to be killed off even for a big payday. probably banking on a couple more MI checks in the future
didn't ving get a pretty nice check for his couple minutes at the end of ghost protocol
 
MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE - FALLOUT Is Now The Highest Grossing Film In The Franchise As It Roars Past $725 Million

Following an exceptional start last week, Paramount's Mission: Impossible - Fallout continued to dominate the Chinese box office in its second frame, taking the top spot with approximately $37 million and bringing its 10-day total to an outstanding $137.7 million.

Combined with a solid $3.8 million take domestically in its seventh week, the critically-acclaimed action blockbuster has earned over $726.6 million worldwide ($212.1M domestic; $514.5M foreign) and is now officially the highest grossing film in the entire franchise. It's also expected to top Mission: Impossible II ($215.4M) domestically by the end of the week, if not sooner, to become the highest-grossing Mission stateside.

Fallout is now also the highest-grossing film in Tom Cruise's storied career, which is quite an achievement for the legendary actor who's been a box office powerhouse for nearly four decades

That's crazy cuz Tom just seems to be breaking records with all his recent flicks.
 
Good for him! Loved this movie.

Probably my favorite movie to release this year
 
Didn't know more we're already planned. If these end up being great, Mission Impossible may be up there as one of the GOAT film franchises
 
Not sure how I feel about two movies shot back to back but I’m jus excited they have somethin in the works already
 
Made the right choice holding on to the mustache over shaving it for JL. Too bad he's dead though.
 
it would have been funny if sometime in the final fight, somewhere in the crash he caught on fire and his mustache burnt off :lol
