All the MI films past the second one blur together for me. They had their shine stolen by the Furious Franchise.

Space Balls is hilarious
Do you just not count the rest of the films in the franchise?
Most old people get their film information the same way they always have: throigh listings and reviews in the newspaper.
If by pretentious art film you mean pretending to be art, then yeah. Old people love middlebrow nothing movies that seem dignified and respectable while being as inoffensive as possible.

Mission Impossible 2 is worth it for the Metal Gear Solid 2 kicks.

Maybe one day we'll get to see the 3.5 hour cut.

I think it can go over that.
Question is how WB builds that buzz through the marketing, and if they can convert/amplify any organic buzz that builds on its own
I pretty much love all of them
except 3.
You love 1 but not 3?
3's the best one in the series though...

All of the non-blockbusters/artsy screenings I've been to have been dominated by old people. Makes me sad.
This is a fuckin tragedy brehs. All the excellent posters for this movie and they chose that as the cover.
$50+ OW would be awesome.

The shame is the inside of the steelbook case would've been a great cover.

Holy jesus. She is NOT spiderwoman. She doesn't swing from the lasso.
This is just awful. Holy shit!
I have five of the original movie posters, and ANY of them would have been leaps and bounds above this.
WHO MADE THIS TERRIBLE DECISION?

That shot from the inside of the steelbook is part of the PS4 theme that you get for preordering the movie on PSN.

Isn't there some article behind the science of why most DVD covers are trash? Something to do with average shoppers connecting with an actor's face more than some flashy art or something.
That would have been fine. I was hoping for either of the two in the middle here but any of them would have worked.

Seems like they want to force people to buy the blu
yes, sure seems that way!
if the 3D disc comes with a non-3D version, I'll get that one.

Every Mission Impossible is special and I'll fight anyone who says otherwise.
Why do the motorcycles explode?
Asking the wrong question. Why shouldn't all things explode because it's awesome?
I don't see the problem?This is a fuckin tragedy brehs. All the excellent posters for this movie and they chose that as the cover.
Finally saw a Hot Topic today. When Suicide Squad 2 comes out I will be able to sensibly chuckle to all of your jokes now.
Also, when did stores start charging over $100 for used N64s? In the mid 00s, I bought a crate of 6 N64 units without cords for $8 off of ebay. I also won another auction for 8-10 N64 power supplies for like $5. It was cheaper to go that route and the remaining parts than it was to spend $30 on a single system.

Whatever store is selling used N64s for $100 is bilking the shit out of its customers.
The last time I was in a Goodwill I saw three of those things stacked (badly) on top of each other for $20 each.

Supersonic, idiotic, disconnecting, not respecting, who would really ever wanna go and top that
It really is. Rebecca Ferguson is a pretty dope addition to the franchise, so I give Rogue Nation some points there.

Because it's awesome. John Woo will not stand for your "reality".
I will burn you to the goddamn ground.
Ever Mission Impossible is great, especially given the fact that Cruise has sold us the same basic plot 5 times in a row. How many times will Ethan Hunt have to go rogue?

Okay, sanity (such as it is) is being restored. We're good.
The main demographic walking into a Hot Topic to buy Suicide Squad or DBZ stuff is the person who would say "Yooooooo is that N64???? OMG I used to have that I loved playing Mario Kart on that!!!!!! And remember GOLDENEYE!?"

Rogue Nation is REALLY good
I liked Ghost Protocol too, I like the later ones more because Tom Cruise has an inexplicable deathwish for some reason
So Toa TAK then

For the record the film was mostly shot on soft grainy Super 35 film and mastered to a 2K digital intermediate. Don't have high expectations for 4K HDR.
Damn, the shade of it all

I love Rogue Nation because they talk about Ethan Hunt like the goddamn boogeyman he is.
Random Human
They were trying to grab your prize. They work for the mercenary. The masked man.
The thing I can never get over with Ghost Protocol is that it feels so clearly like it was written for Sawyer from Lost to be the bad guy, but instead the real bad guy is totally forgettable. Other than that it's super fun.

Sounds like NYC prices.
After Arrival he works best as a supporting role to women.
Lol damn why you got to do him dirty like that

Can we add him to the list?
It's like a mantra: Jai Courtney, Taylor Kitsch, Luke Evans, Sam Worthington, Colin Farrell, Alex Pettyfer, Scott Eastwood, Joel Kinnaman...
