Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation
I didn't see a thread for it, and it opens Friday.
I really enjoyed 4. I thought they did a nice job of retooling things to keep it entertaining with some good laughs and a pretty good plot that had very good set action pieces. Anyway, I just saw this. You'll see in the trailer a part where Cruise is holding onto the side of a plane taking off. You figure it is just a green screen effect done in post production. Nope. I'll hand it to Cruise on this one. It takes balls to hang onto the side of an airplane taking off as it climbs and is going 185+ mph. https://youtu.be/gOW_azQbOjw https://youtu.be/F-qBD17wwrQ http://www.cnn.com/2015/07/25/entert...ise/index.html

Hah. I know, I know. I'm just a Cruise hater for whatever reason. I think it was that Oprah interview. The guy is a ****ing weirdo.
I did love Jack Reacher and Edge of Tomorrow, though. |

The Dubai scenes in MI4 were pretty legit. It was just a really damn well made movie. I liked MI3, 2 was a bit meh, 1 was legit.
**** for me it'd be MI=Bourne=Bond and **** you guys for trying to make me pick. |

It's a tough call because they are all the best in different environments.

Lets try to rank all of the movies that have come out since MI: 1) Skyfall 2) MI4 4) Bourne Identity 5) Casino Royale 6) MI 7) MI3 We've now left 'really good movie' territory. The next 6 range from pretty good all the way to merely solid movies to have on in the background when you're doing something else. 8) Bourne Supremacy 9) Quantum of Solace 10) MI2 11) Bourne Ultimatum 12) Bourne Legacy 13) Tomorrow Never Dies We've now left 'watchable' territory. These movies...aren't. 14) Die Another Day 15) The World.....jesus, I can't even finish typing the name. It's as though saying it out loud brings it to life. What an awful piece of shit movie this was.

On an unrelated note except for it involving Cruise.
Since Tony Scott's suicide, Cruise has been heading up the Top Gun sequel project. Another vote of confidence for his preference of live action stunts has come out. He's said there will be absolutely no CG in the Top Gun sequel. Nice to see some balance returning. CG became the overused new toy for everything when introduced.

I can't stand Fallon and I think these lip sync battles are about the dumbest thing ever.
That said, Cruise, as ever, just goes balls to the walls: That's what makes Cruise such a boss. The guy has never half-assed a thing in his life.

Jumped off a bridge about a year ago, IIRC.
