And it was produced by and stars 30 00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:43,320 Tom Cruise from a screenplay by David Kep. 31 00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:45,080 We'll talk about that in a short while. 32 00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:48,560 And it's a reboot, of course, of the 1966 television series of 33 00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:51,280 the same name. And it's an 88 sequel series. 34 00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:54,760 And it is the first instalment of the the Mission Impossible 35 00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:57,880 franchise, which of course now is a thundering behemoth made 36 00:01:57,880 --> 00:02:01,960 famous known for before it's incredible death defying stunts 37 00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:04,880 performed by Tom Cruise, the unbreakable man. 38 00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:08,720 And no, not less known, a little bit less, I suppose, for it's 39 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:12,440 it's tight plotting and it's sort of spy thriller 40 00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:14,200 credentials. And it's more just kind of like 41 00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:19,080 an excuse to have a big stunt. But this movie stars the 42 00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:22,400 aforementioned Tom Cruise, Jon Voight, Henry Cerny, Emmanuel 43 00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:25,840 Bart, our bet, Sean Renault, Bing Raines who would come back 44 00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:28,440 to be a series regular, Kristen Scott Thomas and Vanessa 45 00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:30,080 Redgrave. And in this film we are 46 00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:33,560 introduced to super spy Ethan Hunt as he seeks to uncover who 47 00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:36,360 framed him for the murders of most of his IMF and possible 48 00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:38,840 Missions Force team. And he becomes disavowed, which 49 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:41,040 happens to him in every single movie henceforth. 50 00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:44,720 But. The man's an HR nightmare it. 51 00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:48,080 Really is unhirable. Oh God. 52 00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:50,800 Oh, Jesus.

How did you find Mission 56 00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:58,400 Impossible 1966? What's your history of the 57 00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:00,320 movie? Oh God damn. 58 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:06,880 So I remember watching this film on on VHS literally decades ago. 59 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:12,080 And at the time I think maybe a lot of it was kind of lost on 60 00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:14,880 me. And I spent most of my rewatch 61 00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:17,440 over there night thinking, Oh my God, how good's this film? 62 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:20,920 How how how good is this film? Holy crap, dude. 63 00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:23,880 I was enraptured by it when I watched it. 64 00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:26,720 I was blown away by Can I say something? 65 00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:28,200 And no one's going to get all mad. 66 00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:31,200 Yeah, sure, this is safe space mate. 67 00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:35,880 This, this film is incredibly 1970s in a very, very cool way. 68 00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:39,040 It's got a massive, massive amount of shared DNA with 69 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:41,840 absolute bangers. Things like really is the 70 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:44,640 Condor, which we've obviously talked about in the pod before, 71 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:47,640 and I know what you're thinking because there's one particular 72 00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:51,320 line in a particular telephone box, which is absolutely a 73 00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:54,880 massive call back to it. The film is beautifully paced. 74 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:58,960 It's got extensive amounts of dialogue, which I love. 75 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:01,480 Some of the writing is absolute bars. 76 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:03,840 It really is. I mean, like at the risk of 77 00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:06,160 being a total wife guy and mentioned my wife Amber a lot, 78 00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:09,080 but she was a really good like kind of like Balala for films 79 00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:11,840 because there was some lanes and being like physically sit up in 80 00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:18,399 a nest and be like holy shit, bars and and yeah, yeah, she was 81 00:04:18,399 --> 00:04:23,920 a nest man and and like just some of the lanes. 82 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:27,680 I think something she said to me was on lines of what why why 83 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:30,880 isn't this line being quoted constantly today? 84 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:33,360 Because it's so good. When it come to the quotes, I'll 85 00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:37,080 be going able over it. The way it's shot is fantastic. 86 00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:41,280 Yakking's great. It's just well, then kind of 87 00:04:41,280 --> 00:04:43,600 like segment watching the second film and I was like very 88 00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:47,880 different film belly and see in front and just yeah, it's a real 89 00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:53,440 proper, intelligent, well written, twisty, turny spy 90 00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:55,800 thriller. It doesn't rely too much on any 91 00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:57,200 one thing. It doesn't rely too much on 92 00:04:57,200 --> 00:05:00,040 gadgets like some like the late 90s James Bond films did. 93 00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:02,680 It doesn't rely too much on someone being exceptionally good 94 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:05,640 at fighting and stuff like that. It's just spy craft and 95 00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:08,600 storytelling. It's meant a significant amount 96 00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:11,120 of reviews that like wrote big films like this anymore and they 97 00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:14,960 don't to to to to an extent a greater or less from standard. 98 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:18,280 It was amazing.

And then like Cruz was like, 146 00:07:57,840 --> 00:07:59,840 yeah, you do. We just made the we just made 147 00:07:59,840 --> 00:08:01,800 the firm and you made Fridy's the Condor. 148 00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:02,720 This is totally in your warehouse. 149 00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:04,320 What are you talking about? You could absolutely make this 150 00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:05,840 movie. Nonetheless, Pollack 151 00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:08,880 respectfully declined the opportunity to make this movie 152 00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:11,440 and steered him in the direction of Brian De Palma said, have I 153 00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:14,000 got a guy for you? Brian De Palma is a good as a 154 00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:15,680 good guy. And obviously Tom Cruise is a 155 00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:18,040 big film nerd. He already knew and he's in the 156 00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:19,800 industry. Obviously by this point he's, 157 00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:22,320 you know, he's made it. Big role, was respected, huge 158 00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:24,400 actor. Now this is 1995. 159 00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:27,880 We're talking about when the movie production's happening in 160 00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:31,960 93 when they're talking. So he's come off the back of a 161 00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:34,880 few good men and obviously is just wrapped on the firm when 162 00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:35,880 they're having these conversations. 163 00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:39,400 Gets him in touch with Brian De Palma, who he meets Brian De 164 00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:42,159 Palma the same year had just finished Carly. 165 00:08:42,159 --> 00:08:46,600 It was way and obviously had a a long story career doing stuff 166 00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:47,800 like blow out and that kind of thing. 167 00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:50,840 And yeah, he was up for it. So they worked on the the the 168 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:54,040 sort of the idea for a couple of years and then sort of put it 169 00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:56,360 together. They had some meetings about 170 00:08:56,360 --> 00:09:01,080 who's going to write it, and the first guy who had a crack at the 171 00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:03,320 screenplay was I think Stephen Zillaire, the guy who wrote 172 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:07,440 Schindler's List, incredibly so. He didn't actually write a 173 00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:09,600 screenplay, though. He had some meetings with Brian 174 00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:12,560 Zapalmer when he talked about it, kind of went through and 175 00:09:12,560 --> 00:09:14,960 kicked some story ideas together, and I've come up with 176 00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:16,400 a rough outline. I didn't commit it. 177 00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:18,560 There was a few of the goes at writing the screenplay. 178 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:21,240 The guy who finally finished it, though, that was David Kepp and 179 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:23,040 David Kepp. Let's just take a little canter 180 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:26,560 through David Kepp's filmography, starting with 991 181 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:28,760 Toy Soldiers.

Watch out for him. 227 00:11:40,560 --> 00:11:42,280 That takes part. Another thing we should talk 228 00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:45,560 about actually is that today we are recording this pod on the 229 00:11:45,560 --> 00:11:49,840 same day the teaser trailer for Alejandro in a Ritos new movie 230 00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:54,480 Digger has just dropped with Tom Cruise in a black comedy role 231 00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:57,920 and you don't even really see him in the trailer, which is 232 00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:00,960 kind of weird.

So, but yeah, if you've seen 241 00:12:25,680 --> 00:12:27,880 that yet, the the the. I've not know. 242 00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:30,760 I've been working like crazy today and I've had a bunch of 243 00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:33,080 crap to do. My life's insane. 244 00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:35,600 This few days and few next days. Fair 1. 245 00:12:35,680 --> 00:12:38,520 It's like about 25 seconds long. I don't have time. 246 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:42,560 For that time was fucking money that I've gotten on, you see. 247 00:12:42,560 --> 00:12:45,720 Like it's just like a shot pans up as I could put a bluesy riff 248 00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:49,280 plane and you see like a space or dunk on the ground and it's 249 00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:51,800 like digger and then that's amazing. 250 00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:54,440 And. Then you see like him, his legs 251 00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:56,640 come past and he's wearing like these long cowboy boots. 252 00:12:56,680 --> 00:12:59,200 But yeah, shorts, but with like short shorts. 253 00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:01,720 I just like dum dum. And then there's a whole bit 254 00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:04,440 where it cuts to him like on what appears to like appear, it 255 00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:07,360 looks like with like a bollard, like a handrail kind of thing. 256 00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:09,480 And he stands upon it and kind of like does like a some sort of 257 00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:11,840 dance with it, with the, with the digger with a spade. 258 00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:14,920 And it's like Tom Cruise is digger. 259 00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:18,360 That's all it says this is. And it's like, it's like we are 260 00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:19,320 so back. Yes. 261 00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:23,000 So back, Boys cruise, cruise boys cruises. 262 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:29,320 We are so back. Good morning, Mr Phelps. 263 00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:32,800 This is your mission, should you choose to accept it. 264 00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:37,880 Should you or any member of your IM force be caught or killed, 265 00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:41,120 the secretary will disavow all knowledge of your actions. 266 00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:45,600 Ethan Hunt will be your point man, as usual. 267 00:13:46,080 --> 00:14:00,280 Good luck, Jim. This series always. 268 00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:03,760 I miss the voice of the guy. Yeah. 269 00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:07,880 This is, this is like the it's cool, but it's like a, it's 270 00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:10,560 almost like a DVD kind of trailer. 271 00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:12,360 Yeah. Doesn't feel like a trailer 272 00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:14,560 you'd see in the movie there. Yeah. 273 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:18,600 Yeah, buddy, it's good. But it kind of does like what 274 00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:19,760 all the movies after this would do. 275 00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:21,000 In fact, I think the movie does it. 276 00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:25,760 So the opening credits for each Mission Impossible movie shows 277 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:27,760 you what's going to happen in the movie you're about to watch. 278 00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:28,760 You see that? Yeah. 279 00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:30,280 Yeah. That was that was crazy. 280 00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:32,520 I noticed that. And it's kind of like that. 281 00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:34,280 It's a little bit like that. It's like, well, here's like 282 00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:36,480 every big explosion. Here's like every cool scene. 283 00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:38,120 Just for a split second, there was. 284 00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:42,040 Definitely a point in the 90s when trailers were just, I mean, 285 00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:45,040 that's got pretty much every big set piece from the film, right? 286 00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:47,480 And there was a point I remember when trailers were just like, 287 00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:50,400 this just sucks, man. This is like this is all the 288 00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:54,560 good bits, the film, the movie. Oh I will say that today I read 289 00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:55,880 the screenplay for the movie as well. 290 00:14:56,760 --> 00:14:59,040 People may or may not know that the the Mission Impossible 291 00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:04,040 movies after this after I would say after the first 3, so from 4 292 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:07,440 onwards. So Ghost Protocol, Rogue Nation, 293 00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:12,160 Fallout and you know, the two dead reckonings or Dead 294 00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:14,920 Reckoning and Final Reckoning from then on they kind of each 295 00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:20,200 of them famously have like 1 humongous stunt that is like the 296 00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:21,680 big stunt that everyone knows about. 297 00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:23,640 It's part of the marketing beforehand. 298 00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:27,200 You, you wind up seeing like making of featurettes about how 299 00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:30,000 they do that stunt before even the movies come out, you know, 300 00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:35,520 and it was very openly discussed by, by by Cruz and Christian 301 00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:38,480 Macquarie, who became like the director of them after the last 302 00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:41,120 few that what they would do is they would get a room and they 303 00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:43,120 would talk like, what's the cool, what's the craziest stunt 304 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:44,880 we can come up with? Like what's the biggest thing we 305 00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:46,440 can do? And then we're going to do that. 306 00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:49,160 And then they kind of make a movie around it to the point 307 00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:51,720 where, and you'll notice this, if you watch like Dead Reckoning 308 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:54,680 and Final Reckoning, like they'll have them do all their 309 00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:56,920 dialogue scenes where they talk about like the plot moving 310 00:15:56,920 --> 00:16:01,160 forward and like small rooms like so at films in tight close 311 00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:02,960 up. So that if when they're making 312 00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:04,720 the movie, they decide they want to take it in a slightly 313 00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:06,840 different direction, they can just reshoot those pretty easily 314 00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:09,480 because they're not like on location, looking over a great 315 00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:11,600 Vista on a certain day with certain lighting outside, but 316 00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:13,640 the sun going down like they're in a small room that they can 317 00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:16,560 control the lighting off so they can do that kind of thing. 318 00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:20,400 It's really interesting. So it was kind of interesting to 319 00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:22,680 have a look at this movie, obviously being the first one 320 00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:27,400 and see the screenplay. And it's pretty much like what 321 00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:30,080 they shot, almost like there's there's very few. 322 00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:33,720 This is this is David Kepp's final shooting scripts, to be 323 00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:35,680 fair. So this is what the last, this 324 00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:37,960 is the one they would have taken to them to say, I couldn't get 325 00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:41,720 anything earlier. So this is almost pretty much 326 00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:44,560 exactly what they say. And it probably means that this 327 00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:47,600 is kind of why this story's plot I think holds together pretty 328 00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:50,120 well. Like you were saying earlier on, 329 00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:52,120 this is a pretty tightly plotted thriller. 330 00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:55,680 I I agree with that. I I also think that this movie 331 00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:58,360 is a lot goofier than I remember it being. 332 00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:00,720 I will think of this as being like the serious one at the 333 00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:02,800 start and then I watched it. Like some of this stuff is 334 00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:05,440 fucking dumb as fuck. Like, what the fuck? 335 00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:07,160 Yeah, I mean. It's yeah, some of it's pretty 336 00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:08,960 silly. It's not like, like it's not 337 00:17:09,079 --> 00:17:11,200 insane levels of grit and realism because it kind of 338 00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:13,359 wouldn't be fun. I mean, the the mission of the 339 00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:16,760 TV series itself was, it was, it was fun, you know, like, yeah, 340 00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:17,400 exactly. Yeah. 341 00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:20,240 It was Cold War. It was it disguises, you know, 342 00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:22,119 people clotting about gadgets and things. 343 00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:23,319 Yeah, absolutely. Yeah. 344 00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:25,960 And Tinker, Tailor, Soldier Spy. This this is not. 345 00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:31,000 So This movie starts with what would become a standard thing in 346 00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:32,880 the Mission Impossible movies. Not every single one of them 347 00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:34,040 does it. But if more than one of them 348 00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:40,080 does it, a scene where they have a ginormous fake out, and that's 349 00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:42,680 a guy being questioned because he's woken up. 350 00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:45,240 What he thinks is a hotel room with like a dead prostitute on 351 00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:47,800 the bed, covered in blood. And he's covered in blood and a 352 00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:50,280 Russian mobster's walked in. He's going to help him clean it 353 00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:51,920 all up. But he needs some information 354 00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:54,120 1st and he slaps it about a little bit. 355 00:17:54,120 --> 00:17:57,480 And then when he gets information he needs someone, a 356 00:17:57,480 --> 00:18:00,400 woman comes in, gives him a shot, and it knocks him out. 357 00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:03,440 And then they do the cool like, Mission Impossible thing where 358 00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:05,720 the Russian gangster pulls off his face mask. 359 00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:09,000 You know, it's Tom Cruise. And then some, some other guys 360 00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:11,200 just come in, like pull the walls apart and, oh, it was just 361 00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:13,680 a pretty fab room. And it's all set up to get the 362 00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:16,280 information they need. And Jack's meaningless of us 363 00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:18,280 sitting there with, like, a search engine open, ready to 364 00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:21,200 type in the name they get so they can get all the information 365 00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:22,560 about the guy. And it's really cool. 366 00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:23,360 Navigator. Awesome. 367 00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:26,640 It does actually make an appearance. 368 00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:28,920 Netscape Navigator does make an appearance in this film. 369 00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:31,840 And I was just I was watching. It's like the Leonardo DiCaprio 370 00:18:32,120 --> 00:18:33,720 meme, you know, like pointing at the TV. 371 00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:35,680 It's like my God, fucking Netscape Navigator. 372 00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:39,120 I remember using that thing. Shut up Sonya, you get a call me 373 00:18:39,120 --> 00:18:44,160 over again. But I loved, I thought it was 374 00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:45,400 really cool. So. 375 00:18:46,120 --> 00:18:48,560 There is. I'm going to get this wrong, I 376 00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:49,840 think. I think it's Mission Impossible. 377 00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:52,680 Fallout has a really similar scene at the beginning. 378 00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:54,600 There's. There's there's a fucking 379 00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:58,640 amazing episode of the lone gunman that starts out with this 380 00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:02,960 kind of like fake out room kind of thing, which which involves a 381 00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:06,960 character for a little older guy doing some just insane. 382 00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:10,360 Why a few shit like flyer on wires to and do martial arts. 383 00:19:10,360 --> 00:19:13,160 It's insane, that's for sure. We should consider at some point 384 00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:15,240 doing a special on because it's bonkers. 385 00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:18,240 It's just it's just silly thriller hastes. 386 00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:22,240 It's so funny. X-Files for people who don't 387 00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:25,400 know it's The X-Files spin off and the the three the three 388 00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:28,200 characters Alun Gunman who help out Mulder sometimes because 389 00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:32,400 they have like big conspiracy theorists vibes and the first 390 00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:34,920 episodes kind of predicted 911 by. 391 00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:38,160 Literally fucking six months. Messed up, very messed up. 392 00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:43,840 Episode 1 of the Lone Gun series involves a government plot to 393 00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:48,600 remotely hijack an airliner and flag it into the World Trade 394 00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:50,240 Centre. So it's not even like kind of 395 00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:53,760 how you could argue that argue that Tom Clancy sort of 396 00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:58,760 predicted with the end of that of an hour on the pilot, flies 397 00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:00,760 as 747 into the Capitol building. 398 00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:03,280 But then like 2 episodes later, there's this like episode that's 399 00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:09,080 like a ridiculous eel in comedy when when Frohicky has like go 400 00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:15,400 undercover as the lost son of a Nazi collaborator lady. 401 00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:18,440 And then I think an episode later there's a whole heist when 402 00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:21,280 they've got like break a monkey that's super intelligent out of 403 00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:23,760 a research facility. Such a fucking good Shorty. 404 00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:26,480 That's amazing, man. We should we should cover that 405 00:20:26,920 --> 00:20:29,040 you wouldn't need. To at this point now, we've kind 406 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:34,240 of foreshadowed it, yeah. OK, so we have our intro 407 00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:36,800 sequence and then we get their actual mission. 408 00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:40,400 So Jim Phelps is in a plane and the air of his desk comes up to 409 00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:43,280 him with a This is another classic bit of Mission 410 00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:47,280 Impossible stuff with a little video that plays the mission 411 00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:49,920 between term and His mission, should he choose to accept it, 412 00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:54,440 is to stop a rogue agent called Alexander Glitzen from stealing 413 00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:57,920 the CIA's knock non official cover, which reveals the 414 00:20:57,920 --> 00:20:59,960 identities of all the undercover agents in Europe. 415 00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:03,200 And then we. Got a cool little mission 416 00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:05,600 briefing scene where we meet the team and I like a good team 417 00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:07,280 meeting. What do you what do you think of 418 00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:08,600 this one? Remember like when we talked 419 00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:11,080 about the the Op Centre team and how we kind of introduced all 420 00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:13,760 those guys and it seemed really forced in a natural even. 421 00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:18,360 Now I'm just feeling the pain of of of that OP centre team 422 00:21:18,360 --> 00:21:19,880 introduction. I like them. 423 00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:22,360 I liked how it was kind of in the form of like, it's not like 424 00:21:22,360 --> 00:21:25,000 a meeting, like it's just kind of like it felt very natural, 425 00:21:25,120 --> 00:21:27,800 very naturalistic. Someone I thought was, and 426 00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:29,920 obviously because this is, this is a spoiler cast. 427 00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:32,680 So we know that the team's going to essentially be almost 428 00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:35,280 entirely wiped out in in like a few minutes. 429 00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:37,800 So I can say this that we are going to see a lot of them 430 00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:42,560 because they're going to die. But it's it seems a bit ahead of 431 00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:47,040 its time and outside of the 90s that there's more than one woman 432 00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:49,480 on the team. And the one woman on the team 433 00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:51,720 isn't just a really hot infiltrator who was like 434 00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:53,160 technical bondage gear or whatever. 435 00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:55,480 Because I mean, you know, there was there was a lot of kind of 436 00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:58,400 shit, right? And of like women in through 437 00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:00,920 that kind of woman. There still is a bit of a bit. 438 00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:03,800 It was nice to say that there's a team when the chicks outnumber 439 00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:06,800 the dudes, you know, pretty much because I mean like the people 440 00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:08,760 who are doing active stuff and boots on the ground. 441 00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:12,240 There's what there's three women, two dudes, so interesting 442 00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:14,680 to say that there's the unbalance imbalance there. 443 00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:17,040 It's pretty cool. It's interesting to say like the 444 00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:19,880 banter between them, but gives a good it gives a good impression 445 00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:21,440 that they've worked well together in the past. 446 00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:26,440 Some some of the dialogue as well as just what was the one 447 00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:28,920 about my wife's coffee that made me laugh? 448 00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:31,640 Take it easy on my wife's coffee. 449 00:22:31,640 --> 00:22:35,800 Or, or as I said out loud as I watched the film, take it easy 450 00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:38,520 on my concerningly young wife's coffee. 451 00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:42,520 Yeah, yeah, Yeah, I do think. That's a bit kind of thinking. 452 00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:46,600 John Voight's like, if I sign on for this film, but I have a 453 00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:49,200 young wife, I don't need to do a section with her. 454 00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:50,560 I don't need to do anything with her. 455 00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:55,240 I just want to look like I'm still really fucking virile. 456 00:22:55,280 --> 00:22:59,840 You know, I've got a Jon Voight reputation to maintain here. 457 00:22:59,840 --> 00:23:02,560 It's going to be a hot young wife and a good fucking go. 458 00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:03,520 Yeah. Like I say, from that bit of a 459 00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:05,400 go up on this and stuff, I think it's pretty cool. 460 00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:09,760 Like, say team that's like more balanced between the sexes. 461 00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:13,160 It's pretty cool and just, yeah, it's like the the scene, but get 462 00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:14,440 on well with each other and a SEC. 463 00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:18,440 I like these guys already, you know, the writing makes them 464 00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:20,200 interesting. There's no one particularly 465 00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:22,960 annoying in the team because it's it's it's easy. 466 00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:26,320 Not like I'm right up, but I think it's probably an easy 467 00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:30,560 cheesy move to make someone in in the team just be really 468 00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:33,480 fucking irritating. I was like, hey, it's the crazy 469 00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:35,280 guy. It's a guy does the funny, wacky 470 00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:37,600 stuff and it's like they're all, they're all, they're all 471 00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:40,120 professionals, you know? Yeah, they could have done it 472 00:23:40,120 --> 00:23:43,400 with Emilio Estevez, his character, but they kind of pull 473 00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:44,880 themselves back at the last minute, didn't they? 474 00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:46,760 Yeah. He's almost. 475 00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:49,440 Going there. Lasagna don't get any on you. 476 00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:53,880 He has some silly sort of 1 liners and stuff like that, but 477 00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:57,440 he, he's not like Waka Waka, I'm the funny guy, you know, So it's 478 00:23:57,440 --> 00:23:58,840 cool. He's trying to get with 479 00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:00,280 Christian Scott Thomas as well. Yeah. 480 00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:02,040 Yeah. He's not middle wood. 481 00:24:02,120 --> 00:24:04,000 Come on. Yeah, It's interesting. 482 00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:06,680 So that scene, right, is one of the only bits that's different 483 00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:09,880 in the screenplay, right. So there's two bits. 484 00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:13,760 So the the initial bit in Kiev with the the fake room, you 485 00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:16,840 remember that Emmanuel Burt, who plays Claire, she gets 486 00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:19,560 tranquillized. She's drugs so that she can 487 00:24:19,560 --> 00:24:21,720 like, be like a plausibly dead hooker. 488 00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:24,560 Yeah. And then she's been under for a 489 00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:26,640 little bit too long and they wake her up and it's a bit like, 490 00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:29,520 man, this is the last time we do this because that Ethan's like, 491 00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:30,440 this is the last time we do this. 492 00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:31,520 Because I was, I was really worried. 493 00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:34,800 That kind of thing in the screenplay that's a little bit 494 00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:37,800 more seriously, like this is the last time you do that on my 495 00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:39,680 watch kind of thing. And he's like properly like 496 00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:43,120 worked up about it. There's an awkward scene pretty 497 00:24:43,120 --> 00:24:47,600 much straight away between Jim Phelps, Jon Voight and Ethan 498 00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:52,040 Hunt. Straight away, where John Boy is 499 00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:54,720 already kind of accusing Ethan of getting a little bit too 500 00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:57,120 close to his hot young French wife Claire, who's at the 501 00:24:57,120 --> 00:24:59,600 computer behind them, somehow seems to be the reference point 502 00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:03,240 in the following exchange. This is it, Ethan. 503 00:25:03,360 --> 00:25:05,960 How is Chicago Phelps? Wonderful. 504 00:25:06,120 --> 00:25:08,760 Run into a convention of oil dealers at the Drake Hotel. 505 00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:10,800 You hear the one about the astronaut who comes back from 506 00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:12,880 the first manned flight to Mars after two years. 507 00:25:13,120 --> 00:25:15,520 His wife's got a year old kid. So he says, all right. 508 00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:17,240 Who was it? My friend Harry. 509 00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:19,040 She says no. Was it my friend Sammy? 510 00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:21,720 She says it wasn't Sammy. I suppose it was my other friend 511 00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:23,080 Lou. No. 512 00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:24,560 What's the matter? Don't you think I have friends 513 00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:28,080 of my own? That is insanely boomer. 514 00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:32,200 That's like wife bad father. I cannot click the boop. 515 00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:37,240 Yeah, yeah. So straight away they're like 516 00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:38,560 not getting on. Yeah. 517 00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:39,920 And that's just taken and they take. 518 00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:42,160 And I think that I'd been weird if I'd been in the movie because 519 00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:44,480 then like it kind of puts you on this weird on edge thing. 520 00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:45,560 There's a little bit still, right. 521 00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:47,520 Full spoiler cast. We obviously know Jim Phelps 522 00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:50,280 quite controversially turns out to be the bad guy in the movie. 523 00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:52,960 And it's like pretty obvious, like straight away, if you if 524 00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:54,840 you're paying attention to it, like that initial heist at the 525 00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:56,840 beginning, it's really obvious that he's like the one 526 00:25:56,840 --> 00:25:59,640 controlling the lift and stuff. The mission brief is they're 527 00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:02,520 going to intercept this guy Alexander Goetzkin, who's got 528 00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:06,760 the Goetzkin who's got the knock list on a floppy disc at this 529 00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:10,520 embassy party thing in Prague. And they're going to have to go 530 00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:13,480 in there, infiltrate the place, try and swap out the the list 531 00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:15,880 and grab it and be gone. I guess we're into it. 532 00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:18,360 It's the big heist, right? So everyone's got a job. 533 00:26:18,360 --> 00:26:20,000 We're probably should count it through the team quickly so 534 00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:22,160 everyone knows who they are. Not that really matters too much 535 00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:24,440 because we're all going to die. But we've got Ethan Hunt, Tom 536 00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:26,280 Cruise, who's played by played by Tom Cruise. 537 00:26:26,520 --> 00:26:28,520 He's he's your point man on this operation. 538 00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:34,040 We've got Kristen Scott Thomas who plays Sarah, who is like, I 539 00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:36,440 guess his number 2 also on point. 540 00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:38,720 And she's the kind of the one who's already in there is in the 541 00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:40,200 cover mall kind of prepping the guy. 542 00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:43,840 We've got Emmanuel Barr who's who's Claire, who's outside. 543 00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:46,320 She's she's handling transport. She only got that job because 544 00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:47,320 she's married to John Voigt, I think. 545 00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:51,560 John Voy's. Obviously the commander in 546 00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:54,480 charge, Jim Phelps, He's he's obviously rear actual 547 00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:56,280 motherfucker. And and then you've got Hannah, 548 00:26:56,280 --> 00:27:00,040 played by Ingeboro Dappu Kanata, who is the surveillance one 549 00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:02,360 who's got the cool glasses on. Yeah, that was. 550 00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:04,960 Meant that was so cool. Yeah, yeah, yeah. 551 00:27:05,360 --> 00:27:07,600 And then, of course, we've got Emilio Estevez's Jack, who's 552 00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:10,000 inside the building. Yeah. 553 00:27:10,120 --> 00:27:12,600 Hacking into the terminals, moving doors and stuff. 554 00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:14,360 And to do this, he has to sit on top of a lift. 555 00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:19,200 Which is just incredibly cool. Something I love about this film 556 00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:24,160 is that it exists in a time, both its setting and the time it 557 00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:28,880 was written and filmed, when the idea of hacking is still kind of 558 00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:31,440 in its infancy. And there's this, there's this 559 00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:34,120 kind of crossover between physically having to be 560 00:27:34,120 --> 00:27:36,320 somewhere to do it and doing things remotely. 561 00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:39,040 And that's just so frigging cool, man. 562 00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:41,920 Like it's digital and analogue at the same time is 563 00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:43,560 electronically hacking things and stuff. 564 00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:45,200 But it's got a deal about sitting on top of a lift. 565 00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:49,200 It's mint. It's awesome when you when you 566 00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:53,880 kind of compare it with just the hacking scenes in the second 567 00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:56,760 film. But it's all very much done like 568 00:27:57,040 --> 00:27:59,320 like remotely in like Wi-Fi kind of thing. 569 00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:04,360 And after just four years, it takes out fair amount of the of 570 00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:08,760 of the tension. The best kind of like electronic 571 00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:11,240 hacking and freaking kind of scenes or ones when there's like 572 00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:14,200 a ticking clock and a sort of dumb plays over the person who's 573 00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:16,200 actually doing the hacking with a lot of properties. 574 00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:21,520 You can't really do it in like kind of how can I put this 575 00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:23,200 right? I'm going to go down weird 576 00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:26,680 fucking rabbit hole here with cyberpunk properties like things 577 00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:28,240 like Shadow Run and stuff like that. 578 00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:30,880 You can have these like plot lines which have these great 579 00:28:30,880 --> 00:28:33,640 concepts of like hacking in from like 20 miles away because 580 00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:35,920 you've got things like dump shock and yeah, you're 581 00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:39,160 physically plugged into the net. And if you're and if the ice 582 00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:42,240 gets yeah, yeah, yeah, you get dub shock and your brain gets 583 00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:45,040 fried. But when you've got a kind of 584 00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:48,160 more modern kind of setup, when you're, well, I'm just going to 585 00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:51,520 hack something from my laptop at a distance, the stakes don't 586 00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:54,960 feel as high as merely W affairs sitting on top of the lift up, 587 00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:58,280 crushed himself against the wall the first time the lift goes 588 00:28:58,280 --> 00:29:00,040 down. I think it's incredibly cool. 589 00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:01,360 You know, it is really. Cool. 590 00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:07,920 And that whole concept is like how the main heist of the movie 591 00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:09,640 kind of works. Yeah. 592 00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:11,520 The whole the whole big deal is it doesn't matter what kind of 593 00:29:11,520 --> 00:29:13,200 crypto you've got, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. 594 00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:16,000 But here's the worst part. You have to be plugged into the 595 00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:17,720 terminal because it's completely air gapped. 596 00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:19,800 OK, cool. So this this heist kind of 597 00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:20,840 happens. It's pretty cool. 598 00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:22,560 I think it's pretty, pretty slickly done. 599 00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:24,600 Yeah. In terms of in terms of like a 600 00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:26,640 carriage along with it, You don't feel like you're kind of 601 00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:30,680 stagnated anywhere. It flows kind of nicely in my 602 00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:31,920 opinion. Everyone gets their cool little 603 00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:34,080 bit. So, you know, Christmas, Scott 604 00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:36,360 Thomas, like Marks the guy with her little perfume bottle. 605 00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:41,120 You see, you see Hannah like adjusted or very focal lens type 606 00:29:41,120 --> 00:29:42,760 thing. So she can see that, see the 607 00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:47,080 marking on it like tune into the frequency of the the agent kind 608 00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:48,960 of she just goes. Into predator vision, doesn't 609 00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:50,000 she? Yeah. 610 00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:53,880 That's really cool and then you get you. 611 00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:56,040 Obviously we're following the guy. 612 00:29:56,040 --> 00:29:58,560 We got the whole thing where the lift doesn't work as planned and 613 00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:02,400 like Ethan Hunt in his in his big like fix of and drawl is 614 00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:04,440 like talking shit about Jack. He's like within the air shot. 615 00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:08,120 So it all seems to be going really, really well. 616 00:30:08,120 --> 00:30:11,120 The guy gets an oculist because he's got a habit so we can take 617 00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:14,000 off it kind of thing. So he gets an oculist and he's 618 00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:17,000 about to leave the building and then suddenly it all goes to 619 00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:19,240 shit. Like I say, like watching I get 620 00:30:19,280 --> 00:30:21,240 I mean, I've seen this film like, I don't know, like 10 621 00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:24,680 times. So it's pretty obvious that what 622 00:30:24,680 --> 00:30:27,520 what we're seeing on the on the laptop like Jim Phelps has got 623 00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:31,520 is that he's like he's been able to like open doors and stuff, 624 00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:32,800 which has happened in the movie already. 625 00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:35,120 So there's already a bit where Tom's like, I can't get this 626 00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:37,400 door open, open this door so I can get underneath the lift and 627 00:30:37,400 --> 00:30:39,760 he opens the door remotely. So if Jim can open the doors 628 00:30:39,760 --> 00:30:43,120 remotely and Jack is there on site to be opening stuff, that 629 00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:44,280 doesn't make sense immediately, does it? 630 00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:46,800 It's a bit like, well, if Jim can do it, why is Jack even 631 00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:51,240 there Anyway, So we see Jim like basically what he does is he 632 00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:54,360 sets the lift going up with Jack on it and then he clearly just 633 00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:56,960 logs himself out and he's like, and then you have like the 634 00:30:56,960 --> 00:30:59,000 system failure thing pops up, but it's only because he's 635 00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:03,080 logged out, right? So then he's like, I can't stop 636 00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:04,880 at Jack. Jack, you got to cut the power. 637 00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:07,200 Jack cut the power and he's growing up and he's growing up 638 00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:09,360 and he's like got his own knife and he's cutting the wires. 639 00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:12,440 And then, yeah, he's the has a horrible scene. 640 00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:14,160 The horrible. It's pretty brilliant. 641 00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:17,920 The films are PG as well. I was like, fuck yeah. 642 00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:22,080 I mean I'm is like he kind of screams and it goes in his mouth 643 00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:25,880 just for a split second that it's like that would be a 12A if 644 00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:27,920 it came out today. Yeah. 645 00:31:27,920 --> 00:31:29,520 What is it like two or three frames Max? 646 00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:30,840 And it's just like, yeah, that's enough. 647 00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:31,880 Yeah, that is. Enough. 648 00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:35,040 That's like. In the screenplay, he he just 649 00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:37,560 gets crushed by the roof. I guess you can't. 650 00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:39,120 But I suppose when they got to the point where they were 651 00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:40,920 filming that, it's like, well, how do you show that? 652 00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:44,040 Like, where's the camera? Like, if that's just that, you 653 00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:46,000 know, how how do you well, how's that make sense? 654 00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:47,840 So that's probably why I had those things jutting down. 655 00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:49,920 Yeah. So it's like, oh, listen, we can 656 00:31:49,920 --> 00:31:52,640 see him get smooshed by before we hit the has to cut just doing 657 00:31:52,640 --> 00:31:54,120 before that. Then the rest of them are pretty 658 00:31:54,120 --> 00:31:55,960 brutal. Kristen Scott Thomas gets done 659 00:31:55,960 --> 00:31:58,080 day. Yeah, really bad. 660 00:31:58,080 --> 00:31:59,240 And then they all get killed, don't they? 661 00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:01,960 Hannah gets gets gets killed in a car bomb. 662 00:32:01,960 --> 00:32:05,920 Yeah. Jim appears to die and falls off 663 00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:08,920 a bridge. And then finally, Claire also 664 00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:10,720 appears to die in what looks like a car bomb. 665 00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:16,520 Yeah. So Ethan freaking out on the run 666 00:32:16,520 --> 00:32:20,800 from the Czech police in Prague gets onto a into a phone box. 667 00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:23,640 And we have a little homage to three Days of the Condor. 668 00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:25,080 Are you? Intact. 669 00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:28,520 Yeah. Yeah, instead. 670 00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:32,960 Of all you damage, then it's like, damn, that's cinema, baby. 671 00:32:32,960 --> 00:32:35,080 Yeah, that's good. And it's the whole thing, you 672 00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:36,600 get you guys to dial in. He has to give like an 673 00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:38,280 authentication curve when he calls in. 674 00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:41,600 And he obviously doesn't go like, I don't remember a Condor, 675 00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:44,720 but he's like, what? Like BE11, something like that. 676 00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:48,680 Yeah, yeah, yeah. And then, yeah, that whole 677 00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:52,080 thing, they're dead. They're all dead. 678 00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:53,200 They're dead. They're all dead. 679 00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:55,640 And that's that's again, that's another like thread. 680 00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:57,840 As the Condor, yeah, it's Condor pilled so. 681 00:32:58,520 --> 00:33:00,960 Yeah, that's really cool. And obviously like Cruz is a big 682 00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:03,280 fan of that movie because he worked with Sydney Pollack, so 683 00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:06,440 he's obviously he's Condor pilled as well at this time. 684 00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:08,280 It's really awesome. But he was interested to meet up 685 00:33:08,280 --> 00:33:13,040 with Kitteridge, played by Henry Henry Cherney from Canada. 686 00:33:14,840 --> 00:33:18,440 We obviously big fans of Jack Ren as we are, we obviously know 687 00:33:18,440 --> 00:33:21,080 this guy as being the the terrible, horrible guy from 688 00:33:21,080 --> 00:33:24,400 Clear and Present Danger, the guy who's behind operational 689 00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:26,560 reciprocity. Robert Ritter is his name in 690 00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:30,280 that. He's good at going scumbag mode. 691 00:33:31,240 --> 00:33:32,960 Yeah, he really is. He really is. 692 00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:35,560 And he's described in the screenplay as being a guy who 693 00:33:35,560 --> 00:33:37,680 looks like he's still living with the Nixon administration. 694 00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:40,960 So when you talk about this movie being like 70s pills as 695 00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:43,720 well, like his, his costuming and his kind of general vibe. 696 00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:46,040 Yeah. The costume especially, it's 697 00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:47,720 like. The. 698 00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:51,760 The trench coat that him and his Mara wear when they're on the 699 00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:55,920 train in in the train sequence on the TJV, it's like that's 700 00:33:55,920 --> 00:33:59,600 just skating close to like anachronistic for the 90s, but 701 00:33:59,600 --> 00:34:01,080 it pulls. But the pull it off and the pull 702 00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:05,800 off through Shia aura alone, through Shia swag alone. 703 00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:10,880 So then we have like the iconic meeting with Kittredge in the 704 00:34:11,360 --> 00:34:14,080 Aquarium restaurant, which is really, really cool. 705 00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:15,960 Some of the. Some of the greatest lines of 706 00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:18,000 the film that I'll probably get into when we get in the quotes 707 00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:19,639 section. But in general that seems 708 00:34:19,719 --> 00:34:21,120 incredible. It's amazing. 709 00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:25,320 Just the camera work when Ethan hunts like kind of recognise and 710 00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:29,040 you know, oh, there's, there's another IMF team here and, and 711 00:34:29,040 --> 00:34:31,000 he's kind of pointing them out, you know, and like you seen the 712 00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:34,000 cameras going between them. Oh, the, the drunk Russian and 713 00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:35,960 all that and so good. So, yeah, yeah. 714 00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:39,040 Yeah, the way. It's shot the angles to shoot 715 00:34:39,040 --> 00:34:41,440 Kit Ridge at as well. Like it. 716 00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:45,719 It's like the way it sets up Kit Ridge to be assumed to be the 717 00:34:45,719 --> 00:34:49,199 absolute villain and existential threat, which he is, but he's 718 00:34:49,199 --> 00:34:51,159 not the absolute, absolute villain, you know. 719 00:34:51,239 --> 00:34:55,120 But the the way it sets him up to be absolutely devilish in 720 00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:57,600 this film is excellent. Just the cinema work. 721 00:34:57,600 --> 00:35:01,640 It's like love these. Movies for bringing so they 722 00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:06,720 bring Kittridge back for for the latitude, which is great. 723 00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:10,320 And I like that because first of all, I love like this movie 724 00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:12,520 series. Nobody asked it to, but it has 725 00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:13,880 like a trend. It's not a respect for his own 726 00:35:13,880 --> 00:35:15,080 history. Like it didn't have it didn't 727 00:35:15,080 --> 00:35:16,520 have to do that. It didn't have to go that hard 728 00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:18,080 and bring all these characters back and stuff. 729 00:35:18,080 --> 00:35:20,640 Like no one was no one. No one was keeping track, but 730 00:35:21,120 --> 00:35:23,240 but they did it anyway. And I and I respect him and love 731 00:35:23,240 --> 00:35:25,640 him for that. And it's great because Henry 732 00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:27,240 Journey gets more work and I think he's great. 733 00:35:27,240 --> 00:35:30,000 So and he deserves it because he's he's brilliant in this. 734 00:35:30,120 --> 00:35:32,400 And I like what they do here with the, just as you describe 735 00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:34,040 it, the Dutch. The Dutch angles looking up at 736 00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:37,320 him slightly off kilter, like a certain Vanity Fair photo shoot 737 00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:41,120 this week. Incredibly typical and 738 00:35:41,120 --> 00:35:44,600 incredibly spot on. To yeah, to indicate some sort 739 00:35:44,600 --> 00:35:46,560 of slight deviousness and just show that everything's got off 740 00:35:46,560 --> 00:35:47,600 kilter. So you've got the same thing 741 00:35:47,600 --> 00:35:52,000 shooting back at Ethan as well, because he's he's because he's 742 00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:53,800 getting stressed out and he's a little bit off kilter and 743 00:35:53,800 --> 00:35:56,240 everything's a little bit tensioned and heightened. 744 00:35:57,120 --> 00:36:02,480 That just the language of the images, like shows you like the 745 00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:05,920 relationship and that Kittridge is like becoming an antagonist. 746 00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:07,680 You could watch this movie with the sound off and understand 747 00:36:07,680 --> 00:36:11,920 that the guy he's talking to is is an antagonistic force just 748 00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:14,320 through the storytelling images, which I think is really cool. 749 00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:19,640 We get the payoff for the Chekhovs plastic explosive. 750 00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:23,440 Yes, well, it's the. 1st, I suppose it's the demonstration 751 00:36:23,440 --> 00:36:26,560 of the of the capability of the of of Chekhov's plastic 752 00:36:26,560 --> 00:36:28,840 explosive. The hassle is on you don't get 753 00:36:28,840 --> 00:36:31,800 on you throws at the the aquarium wall. 754 00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:35,640 The aquarium wall explodes and about in the script it says 100 755 00:36:35,640 --> 00:36:38,560 gallons of water. But I think like, I don't know, 756 00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:41,520 like, forget, 100 cubes of water come flying out of the front of 757 00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:44,560 this restaurant like a zillion fish. 758 00:36:44,920 --> 00:36:46,280 And it's pretty, it's pretty mega. 759 00:36:48,160 --> 00:36:51,760 I didn't realise this, but Sonya alerted me earlier in the group 760 00:36:51,760 --> 00:36:54,920 chat to a real life fish tank that this happens to. 761 00:36:55,040 --> 00:36:59,280 Holy crap. I don't think there was an IMF 762 00:36:59,280 --> 00:37:03,840 agent involved, but yeah, a. Hotel in Berlin there used to be 763 00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:11,040 a very large aquarium full of tropical exotic fish and 764 00:37:11,040 --> 00:37:16,040 whatnot, with a whopping height of 25 metres and in Wow, 765 00:37:16,040 --> 00:37:19,680 actually on the steam of December 22. 766 00:37:19,680 --> 00:37:25,760 So three years and two days ago, exactly that randomly collapsed 767 00:37:25,760 --> 00:37:30,320 and suddenly the entire hotel was full of fish. 768 00:37:31,600 --> 00:37:39,080 Mega Darts. 1 1/2 thousand fish. Jesus 100. 769 00:37:39,080 --> 00:37:46,160 Different in in excess of 100 species and a total volume of 770 00:37:46,160 --> 00:37:51,120 980 cubic metres of water. See how? 771 00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:53,480 That's. Yes. 772 00:37:53,480 --> 00:37:56,560 So let me just imagine if you. Like the security guard on duty? 773 00:37:57,080 --> 00:37:58,960 Actually, if you. Were the Latino on duty mayor? 774 00:37:59,880 --> 00:38:02,280 Yeah, yeah. So they. 775 00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:07,520 They got like a civil rescue involved with like cleaning it 776 00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:09,920 up. It says here the majority of the 777 00:38:09,920 --> 00:38:15,280 1500 fish were killed, unsurprisingly I suppose, and 778 00:38:15,280 --> 00:38:17,800 two people were hospitalised with injuries. 779 00:38:17,800 --> 00:38:21,080 Officials noted that the collapse could easily have taken 780 00:38:21,080 --> 00:38:24,520 several lives had it taken place during the hotel's busier 781 00:38:24,520 --> 00:38:27,680 operational hours. Detected by local seismographs, 782 00:38:27,680 --> 00:38:30,720 the collapse sent the water out of the hotel lobby and into 783 00:38:30,720 --> 00:38:36,160 nearby storm drains, but not before damaging several nearby 784 00:38:36,160 --> 00:38:39,920 businesses, including a neighbouring Lynn Chocolate Shop 785 00:38:40,560 --> 00:38:45,280 no and the basement of the adjacent DDR Museum, the letter 786 00:38:45,280 --> 00:38:47,720 of which reopened 3 1/2 months later. 787 00:38:47,720 --> 00:38:50,600 Much of you have been. Parked outside and my kids yeah 788 00:38:50,600 --> 00:38:53,120 8 cars imagine you're. Just just getting out of your 789 00:38:53,120 --> 00:38:58,000 car to check into the the hotel and you're his by an indoors 790 00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:00,800 tsunami and all of Nemo's friends. 791 00:39:02,360 --> 00:39:06,240 You just, you just like take it out by like some incredibly rare 792 00:39:06,240 --> 00:39:14,440 fish that just bombard you just. Pulling up to the hotel, does 793 00:39:14,440 --> 00:39:17,200 this place smell a bit fishy and then you're just hit by a wall 794 00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:19,560 of water? I. 795 00:39:19,560 --> 00:39:24,800 Love that the majority of them died, which means I'm going to 796 00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:28,080 hate that, but I like the fact that some of them therefore must 797 00:39:28,080 --> 00:39:29,880 have survived. I am. 798 00:39:29,880 --> 00:39:32,320 Picturing someone resuscitating a goldfish. 799 00:39:34,080 --> 00:39:38,560 Basically holding it under the, slapping it around. 800 00:39:40,120 --> 00:39:42,360 I can imagine some like Intrepid weight. 801 00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:45,040 I was just opening all like the taps and filling paint glasses, 802 00:39:45,040 --> 00:39:47,040 the water. Just Chuck it fish and they go. 803 00:39:47,280 --> 00:39:48,560 Come on. God damn it. 804 00:39:49,040 --> 00:39:51,560 Yeah, I'm on Intrepid the block. That's saving lives, dude. 805 00:39:52,160 --> 00:39:54,880 The the other, the other one, of course, is that like the fish 806 00:39:54,880 --> 00:39:57,320 may have got the storm drains and then create like kind of 807 00:39:57,320 --> 00:40:03,240 like feral fish population for the city, a feral exotic fish 808 00:40:03,240 --> 00:40:05,600 population. Just these puffer fish, these 809 00:40:05,600 --> 00:40:08,040 fugu and all that. Just like bobbing at the surface 810 00:40:08,040 --> 00:40:11,400 occasionally more valuable than 90% of the people walking round 811 00:40:11,400 --> 00:40:13,320 pound for pound. You know how rare they are. 812 00:40:13,320 --> 00:40:16,320 But I like that. Could you imagine being one of 813 00:40:16,320 --> 00:40:18,360 those fish? The stories. 814 00:40:18,360 --> 00:40:21,240 To tell emits exactly. Yeah, you survived this 815 00:40:21,240 --> 00:40:23,600 ginormous cadastry. Then you, like, find yourself in 816 00:40:23,600 --> 00:40:27,200 like some normal tank in someone's house and you're like, 817 00:40:27,200 --> 00:40:28,920 in the corner, like smoking a cigarette. 818 00:40:29,360 --> 00:40:32,240 And like a new fish comes in and all the other fish are like, 819 00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:34,600 don't talk to him. Don't talk to him, man. 820 00:40:34,600 --> 00:40:37,560 He's got he'll, if he starts, he won't stop. 821 00:40:37,760 --> 00:40:40,720 And it's like, oh, who are you? It's like, oh buddy, did I ever 822 00:40:40,720 --> 00:40:46,800 tell you about the hotel? The Great Dome implosion of 22. 823 00:40:47,040 --> 00:40:49,120 I was there, son. Big, big. 824 00:40:49,120 --> 00:40:52,960 Drag like he's got. Like A5 metres of. 825 00:40:52,960 --> 00:40:56,800 Water 1500 of my buddies dead. Could you imagine that many 826 00:40:56,800 --> 00:40:58,240 fish? Have you ever seen that many 827 00:40:58,240 --> 00:41:01,560 fish, Youngblood? He's and he's and he's got like 828 00:41:01,560 --> 00:41:05,240 and he's got like a snake Pliskin style eye packed like 829 00:41:05,240 --> 00:41:07,320 he's like, like he's like, you know, it is. 830 00:41:07,320 --> 00:41:13,320 He's called Snake, Fishkin, or perhaps even you think you. 831 00:41:13,320 --> 00:41:15,960 Know aquariums? You know nothing, son. 832 00:41:18,520 --> 00:41:20,600 That's so good. Snake fishkin with no. 833 00:41:20,600 --> 00:41:23,520 Suspicion of foul play and prior to formal investigation, 834 00:41:23,520 --> 00:41:25,960 suspected causes included Ethan Hunt. 835 00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:29,520 They they they've played it safe. 836 00:41:29,520 --> 00:41:36,080 By the way, the hotel has reopened this February and they 837 00:41:36,080 --> 00:41:41,880 have replaced the aquarium with a 24 metre vertical garden 838 00:41:42,280 --> 00:41:46,880 consisting of about 2000 plants of two. 839 00:41:46,880 --> 00:41:48,680 My garden has. The potential to do the funniest 840 00:41:48,680 --> 00:41:50,280 thing. I. 841 00:41:50,360 --> 00:41:55,320 I I was going to say it was like holder gets hit by 2000 842 00:41:55,320 --> 00:42:03,240 different branches and one. Like 500 plant pots 4 sadly. 843 00:42:03,240 --> 00:42:09,040 Most of the shrubs died, so essentially afterwards they said 844 00:42:09,040 --> 00:42:14,400 bring me a shrubbery. So we have It's not the first, 845 00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:18,440 but it's an early example of Tom Cruise running as well as he 846 00:42:18,440 --> 00:42:22,480 escapes the restaurant and dashes across the courtyard, 847 00:42:22,480 --> 00:42:25,400 being chased by a wave of water and a load of, I hope, a dead 848 00:42:25,400 --> 00:42:27,560 fish. What happened though was in that 849 00:42:27,560 --> 00:42:33,000 meeting Kittredge, the CIA Director of the IMF, so CIA 850 00:42:33,000 --> 00:42:35,520 based IMF director. So IMF is subordinate to the CIA 851 00:42:35,520 --> 00:42:37,640 in this movie, it would appear. Which means. 852 00:42:37,640 --> 00:42:40,120 We're going to ask a big fucking question at the end of the show 853 00:42:40,120 --> 00:42:44,120 and actually have a not ambivalent answer at this point 854 00:42:44,120 --> 00:42:45,400 and. It does indeed. 855 00:42:45,640 --> 00:42:50,200 Kittridge tells Hunt that they are suspecting a mole in the 856 00:42:50,200 --> 00:42:51,640 IMF. And I think this is legit. 857 00:42:51,640 --> 00:42:53,760 I think they are legitimately expecting, looking for a mole in 858 00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:59,320 the IMF, but they all think that it's Hunt because they're all, 859 00:42:59,520 --> 00:43:01,240 as far as they're concerned, everything's adding up. 860 00:43:01,240 --> 00:43:05,040 There's a Hunt's family's farm is a receivership. 861 00:43:05,280 --> 00:43:07,280 Yeah. This is the one and only time 862 00:43:07,280 --> 00:43:10,040 we'll ever talk about Ethan Hunt's personal life outside of, 863 00:43:10,040 --> 00:43:12,000 like, Rebecca Ferguson in all these movies. 864 00:43:12,080 --> 00:43:13,000 Yeah. And. 865 00:43:13,040 --> 00:43:14,080 And Michelle Monaghan. Sorry. 866 00:43:14,160 --> 00:43:17,880 Yeah. And they think that Hunt is the 867 00:43:17,880 --> 00:43:19,560 mole. He wants to sell the knock list 868 00:43:19,560 --> 00:43:21,960 to get a lot of money so he can buy back his family's farm for 869 00:43:21,960 --> 00:43:23,320 the Muslim like that. That's what they kind of 870 00:43:23,320 --> 00:43:25,240 assumed. And then they tell them that the 871 00:43:25,240 --> 00:43:28,640 knock list at this embassy in this mission was a fake, so it 872 00:43:28,640 --> 00:43:31,680 would have been useless, but also that the person they're 873 00:43:31,680 --> 00:43:36,400 trying to sell it to is this arms dealer Mac Max as part of 874 00:43:36,400 --> 00:43:42,280 Job 314. So under that information, I'm 875 00:43:42,280 --> 00:43:44,120 saying all this because it leads to what happens next. 876 00:43:44,320 --> 00:43:46,520 So Ethan Hunt says right, I'm going to try and back trace who 877 00:43:46,520 --> 00:43:51,560 the mole is by posing as the mole and talking to his Max 878 00:43:51,560 --> 00:43:53,680 instead of going to meet so that I can find out from Max who the 879 00:43:53,680 --> 00:43:55,600 molars. And then it leads us to me to 880 00:43:55,600 --> 00:43:58,760 one of my favourite scenes in the movie, the extended sequence 881 00:43:58,760 --> 00:44:01,080 where we get to watch Ethan Hunt use a laptop. 882 00:44:01,080 --> 00:44:03,840 He is. All of us in this film, he is a 883 00:44:03,840 --> 00:44:07,080 man who was very tired in front of a laptop. 884 00:44:07,880 --> 00:44:10,240 It's extremely sleepy. He's a sleepy boy from that 885 00:44:10,240 --> 00:44:13,560 laptop. He is actually that so top of 886 00:44:13,560 --> 00:44:18,240 films predicting various things. This film generally predicted 887 00:44:19,040 --> 00:44:20,680 the state. A lot of our lives in the year 888 00:44:20,680 --> 00:44:25,160 2025 when we're just tie up in front of a computer, man, we're 889 00:44:25,160 --> 00:44:27,920 just tired in front of a computer, just typing away 890 00:44:28,080 --> 00:44:30,840 tired. He'd be beaten down. 891 00:44:30,840 --> 00:44:35,080 Tell you what, I like this. About this movie is when he 892 00:44:35,080 --> 00:44:38,640 receives an e-mail, the laptop makes the most horrendous sound 893 00:44:38,960 --> 00:44:43,200 to alert him to the e-mail. It's like to say that he has an 894 00:44:43,240 --> 00:44:47,400 e-mail, whilst laptops don't literally make that noise when 895 00:44:47,400 --> 00:44:51,800 you receive an e-mail. To me, in my heart they are 896 00:44:51,800 --> 00:44:53,600 doing that. When I see the other emails 897 00:44:53,600 --> 00:44:55,960 coming in, it is very much like the laptop is going. 898 00:44:57,400 --> 00:44:59,840 Is it is it, man? Hey, Mike. 899 00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:02,400 Hey, Mike, here's a lot of shitstorm for you. 900 00:45:02,400 --> 00:45:05,000 It's ever a good e-mail.

It's like a. 903 00:45:11,720 --> 00:45:14,920 Hey, you found another?

He gets an e-mail back 963 00:48:19,480 --> 00:48:22,520 suggesting a meet and he gets very detailed instructions about 964 00:48:22,520 --> 00:48:24,560 what to do. Some funky little spy craft 965 00:48:24,560 --> 00:48:26,200 bullshit happens and then he does it. 966 00:48:26,200 --> 00:48:29,320 He approaches a man on a bench whilst holding a packet of 967 00:48:29,320 --> 00:48:31,960 cigarettes and asks for a match and gets builded into a sedan 968 00:48:32,000 --> 00:48:36,640 and is taken to meet the elusive Max who is veteran of stage and 969 00:48:36,640 --> 00:48:39,920 screen vetting. Vanessa Redgrave giving extreme 970 00:48:39,920 --> 00:48:43,080 sultry energy as as our arms dealer. 971 00:48:44,120 --> 00:48:47,120 It's an incredibly horny performance from She Is Like it 972 00:48:47,120 --> 00:48:48,720 is indeed. Hey, Ethan. 973 00:48:48,880 --> 00:48:51,680 Really. Really enjoy that they kind of 974 00:48:51,680 --> 00:48:56,840 bring her back via having Vanessa Kirby play like her, 975 00:48:56,840 --> 00:49:00,280 like granddaughter or something and the later movies she's meant 976 00:49:00,280 --> 00:49:01,560 to be related. I had no. 977 00:49:01,560 --> 00:49:03,640 Idea. The only ones I've seen are the 978 00:49:03,640 --> 00:49:09,000 first one, the second one, and I think some of ghost protocol at 979 00:49:09,000 --> 00:49:12,440 Emma's grandma's house when we were all drinking quite heavily. 980 00:49:13,960 --> 00:49:17,400 Oh, man, my clear and present. Dude, you need to watch Rogue 981 00:49:17,400 --> 00:49:18,960 Nation. I mean, the rest of the world, 982 00:49:18,960 --> 00:49:20,320 right? The Rogue Nation is fun. 983 00:49:20,320 --> 00:49:22,480 It's the one that starts with the A400 thing. 984 00:49:22,600 --> 00:49:23,240 Yeah, cool. Right. 985 00:49:23,240 --> 00:49:26,240 So it meets Max. She he convinces Max that the 986 00:49:26,240 --> 00:49:28,560 knock list he's got that she already has is a fake, and 987 00:49:28,920 --> 00:49:31,320 that's sort of tracking device in it as she puts into a disc 988 00:49:31,320 --> 00:49:34,360 Dr. I like that the floppy disc that she has the knock list on 989 00:49:34,360 --> 00:49:37,200 is like still got like dry blood and stuff on it from being 990 00:49:37,200 --> 00:49:41,480 inside the guy's pocket. He convinces Max that you can 991 00:49:41,480 --> 00:49:43,960 get out of the real 1 is she gives him like a cash advance so 992 00:49:43,960 --> 00:49:45,360 you can like buy the tools he needs. 993 00:49:45,400 --> 00:49:48,040 And then we get like the best, coolest bit of the movie, which 994 00:49:48,040 --> 00:49:52,080 is the the heist to get into Langley and get the real knock 995 00:49:52,080 --> 00:49:53,040 list. I love this. 996 00:49:53,560 --> 00:49:56,440 It's pretty much exactly as it appears in the screenplay. 997 00:49:56,760 --> 00:50:01,600 But before that happens, Ethan meets up again with well, he's 998 00:50:01,600 --> 00:50:05,320 met with Claire already in the Prague safe house and they have 999 00:50:05,320 --> 00:50:08,440 to hire a couple of extra bods to make a team for a heist. 1000 00:50:08,960 --> 00:50:13,320 And they hire Sean Renault and Ving Rhames as Krieger and 1001 00:50:13,320 --> 00:50:15,640 Luther Stickle have respectively. 1002 00:50:16,520 --> 00:50:18,160 And Luther becomes like a series regular. 1003 00:50:18,160 --> 00:50:20,240 He's like at every movie after this, which is great. 1004 00:50:20,240 --> 00:50:23,680 And I love the meeting with Luther Phineas Freak is his name 1005 00:50:23,680 --> 00:50:27,520 is. There's a cool story about about 1006 00:50:27,520 --> 00:50:30,560 Ving Rhames here. So Ving Rhames, his character in 1007 00:50:30,560 --> 00:50:32,760 the original screenplay before got reworked into the shooting 1008 00:50:32,760 --> 00:50:34,960 scripts, was meant to get killed off. 1009 00:50:34,960 --> 00:50:37,080 And Ving Rhames asked the question of Tom Cruise. 1010 00:50:37,080 --> 00:50:39,880 She was like, why, Why does the black guy die? 1011 00:50:39,920 --> 00:50:43,480 And he's like, very good point. And he's like, well, you know, 1012 00:50:43,480 --> 00:50:45,800 like lots of people die in the movie, you know, this one 1013 00:50:45,800 --> 00:50:47,360 happens to be black. But like, you know, lots of 1014 00:50:47,360 --> 00:50:49,520 people die. He's like, yeah, but like, why 1015 00:50:49,520 --> 00:50:52,760 is the black guy always going to die in movies? 1016 00:50:53,640 --> 00:50:57,680 And he's like, good point. And then so from there on, like 1017 00:50:57,680 --> 00:51:01,120 Luther survived and he made it for like another 7 movies, which 1018 00:51:01,120 --> 00:51:03,240 was fantastic. Got myself, got myself a good 1019 00:51:03,240 --> 00:51:05,720 job for life. You know, he's been getting and 1020 00:51:05,720 --> 00:51:08,000 that Mission Impossible for the last 30 years of that. 1021 00:51:08,000 --> 00:51:10,240 So good for him. Incredible. 1022 00:51:10,840 --> 00:51:14,400 My bands getting out squeaky. Wheel gets the grease indeed. 1023 00:51:14,480 --> 00:51:17,840 Cool, right? So this becomes a thing and all 1024 00:51:17,840 --> 00:51:19,360 the Mission Impossible is going forward. 1025 00:51:19,360 --> 00:51:22,440 There's always like 1 cool big heist and they're always 1026 00:51:22,440 --> 00:51:25,440 explained the way they are here. Well, they're kind of odd. 1027 00:51:25,440 --> 00:51:27,040 This is this is the first one and it's the kind of the 1028 00:51:27,040 --> 00:51:28,760 prototype. So what they do here is they 1029 00:51:28,760 --> 00:51:31,520 talk about how difficult it's going to be by describing in 1030 00:51:31,520 --> 00:51:35,200 detail the rules of, of, of the security of the place they're 1031 00:51:35,200 --> 00:51:38,240 trying to infiltrate. So on this one, they're trying 1032 00:51:38,240 --> 00:51:40,920 to access a computer that's in a secure room. 1033 00:51:40,920 --> 00:51:43,960 Secure room can only be accessed by one guy who asked to get 1034 00:51:43,960 --> 00:51:47,240 through like a door. There's an airlock room, another 1035 00:51:47,240 --> 00:51:48,960 door and it's into the room itself. 1036 00:51:48,960 --> 00:51:51,120 And the room itself has got a whole bunch of security features 1037 00:51:51,120 --> 00:51:54,000 inside as well. So he has to get past like a 1038 00:51:54,000 --> 00:51:56,040 code room. It's like it was like a door 1039 00:51:56,040 --> 00:51:58,160 code. He has two key cards that have 1040 00:51:58,160 --> 00:52:01,120 to be used in tandem. He gets into another door. 1041 00:52:01,320 --> 00:52:04,200 He has to get through like an Irish scanner as well. 1042 00:52:04,440 --> 00:52:07,960 Once he's into the actual room itself, the room itself is when 1043 00:52:07,960 --> 00:52:12,600 it's not being accessed by him. So when it's like armed, there's 1044 00:52:12,600 --> 00:52:16,240 pressure plates on the on the deck, There's an alarm links to 1045 00:52:16,240 --> 00:52:21,120 like a like decibel microphone. So it goes over a certain amount 1046 00:52:21,120 --> 00:52:24,920 of decibels alarms. It has a heat sensitive alarm. 1047 00:52:24,920 --> 00:52:29,480 So if the body temperature of somebody is in the room, it will 1048 00:52:29,920 --> 00:52:32,560 trigger as well. So it must be cool when they go 1049 00:52:32,560 --> 00:52:36,960 in there cool and there's only one vent where the air con comes 1050 00:52:36,960 --> 00:52:39,360 in from above and there's like a laser grid over the top of that. 1051 00:52:39,760 --> 00:52:43,040 OK, so this room is like, it's impenetrable unless you happen 1052 00:52:43,040 --> 00:52:45,680 to be this one guy. Mr Donlow is his name. 1053 00:52:45,760 --> 00:52:48,800 He's basically. It's basically several figures 1054 00:52:48,800 --> 00:52:51,960 Smasher, isn't he? I mean, like even Eve. 1055 00:52:51,960 --> 00:52:53,880 I mean, yeah. I mean, you see, I don't even 1056 00:52:53,880 --> 00:52:55,840 have to say work with me. He actually know exactly where 1057 00:52:55,840 --> 00:52:57,160 I'm going. I mean, even like the voice 1058 00:52:57,160 --> 00:52:58,680 recognition at the start, it's like I'm watching. 1059 00:52:58,680 --> 00:53:02,200 It's like Cyril Figures, you know, like he's like, he's like 1060 00:53:04,080 --> 00:53:06,800 he is in. I mean, hindsight. 1061 00:53:06,800 --> 00:53:10,400 Cyril Figures is totally based on this guy yeah, I also like 1062 00:53:10,400 --> 00:53:13,640 how he's inexplicably like fucking dope sick or something 1063 00:53:13,640 --> 00:53:16,640 like keeps throwing up. Did I did I did I did I miss 1064 00:53:16,640 --> 00:53:18,720 something in which the poison that they still doing the yes, 1065 00:53:18,720 --> 00:53:22,520 that's right, just Claire Claire's disguise. 1066 00:53:22,520 --> 00:53:26,320 Claire is pretending to be a secretary of some kind. 1067 00:53:26,320 --> 00:53:29,360 And I fucking jumped out my seat at this because that's real T 1068 00:53:29,360 --> 00:53:32,520 Lane shorthand on a notepad. And I was like, fucking T Lane 1069 00:53:32,520 --> 00:53:35,360 shorthand mentioned. I, I, I swear to God, in most 1070 00:53:35,360 --> 00:53:37,640 episodes I mentioned a different job I've had, but I used to be a 1071 00:53:37,640 --> 00:53:39,720 journalist. I've got a green journalism from 1072 00:53:39,960 --> 00:53:42,800 Sunderland University. I used to work for the Sunday 1073 00:53:42,800 --> 00:53:44,600 Sun in Newcastle. It's not related to the London 1074 00:53:44,600 --> 00:53:48,680 Sun about bailings in the Chronicle and the Journal and 1075 00:53:48,680 --> 00:53:51,880 the Sunderland Echo as well. And so I was like, holy shit, 1076 00:53:51,880 --> 00:53:53,520 that's a real fucking tail line shorthand. 1077 00:53:53,520 --> 00:53:59,640 I was really excited. I couldn't fully comprehend it. 1078 00:53:59,880 --> 00:54:04,080 I was like, I think that's in at the start and and and and that's 1079 00:54:04,080 --> 00:54:06,040 maybe like a really long M later on. 1080 00:54:06,040 --> 00:54:08,720 But yeah, I was, I was buzzing to see it was real tailing 1081 00:54:08,720 --> 00:54:10,000 shorthand. That was class. 1082 00:54:11,960 --> 00:54:12,960 That was cool. Good insight. 1083 00:54:13,920 --> 00:54:17,040 What the rest of the movies do is they show the rules of the 1084 00:54:17,040 --> 00:54:20,240 heist that's going to happen. This is a bit like oceans as 1085 00:54:20,240 --> 00:54:22,080 well. They show the rules of that 1086 00:54:22,080 --> 00:54:24,440 that's going to happen. And then what they what the rest 1087 00:54:24,440 --> 00:54:28,680 of the movies do after this is they show like what successfully 1088 00:54:28,680 --> 00:54:30,160 beating it would look like as well. 1089 00:54:32,200 --> 00:54:35,280 You know, they would show not only how the original guy gets 1090 00:54:35,280 --> 00:54:37,720 into the room, it's also like what they're going to do to beat 1091 00:54:37,720 --> 00:54:39,400 it and assume it works, you know. 1092 00:54:39,480 --> 00:54:42,400 So like you have like the plan that was not going to survive 1093 00:54:42,400 --> 00:54:44,880 first contact with the enemy, but you see how the see how the 1094 00:54:44,880 --> 00:54:47,080 plan if everything worked would play out as well. 1095 00:54:47,120 --> 00:54:49,000 You don't get out on this one. That's fine because it's still 1096 00:54:49,000 --> 00:54:52,480 awesome. So, but like real life on this, 1097 00:54:52,480 --> 00:54:54,880 on this occasion, no plans about first contact the enemy and it 1098 00:54:54,880 --> 00:54:57,280 all starts to go a bit awry. It goes mostly OK. 1099 00:54:57,560 --> 00:55:01,200 So in order to get initial access into Langley, they call 1100 00:55:01,200 --> 00:55:04,080 in a fire. So they rock up, It's a fire 1101 00:55:04,080 --> 00:55:07,080 brigade. They hack into the fire alarms 1102 00:55:07,640 --> 00:55:11,160 in the building to make a sensor trip to allow them access into 1103 00:55:11,160 --> 00:55:13,040 the building as the fire fire department. 1104 00:55:13,280 --> 00:55:15,880 They go in there and obviously they're all dressed in there the 1105 00:55:15,880 --> 00:55:18,400 firefighting rig so no one can sneak up the faces and stuff. 1106 00:55:18,760 --> 00:55:21,480 And it's Luther who has to be wide into a terminal. 1107 00:55:21,520 --> 00:55:24,680 And you've got Ethan Hunt and Krieger are going to go into the 1108 00:55:24,680 --> 00:55:27,720 actual vault itself. And then you've got Claire is 1109 00:55:28,400 --> 00:55:30,480 gets takes the 500 off, is dressed as a secretary. 1110 00:55:30,720 --> 00:55:33,440 And then she just walks out and just blends in with the rest of 1111 00:55:33,440 --> 00:55:37,240 the workforce. She goes into a, like, breakout 1112 00:55:37,240 --> 00:55:40,600 room, which Mr Donlow is in as well, and he gets out his big 1113 00:55:40,600 --> 00:55:43,280 Washington Post and is just sitting there reading. 1114 00:55:43,400 --> 00:55:46,000 She says I'm comfortably close to him and then squirts a bit of 1115 00:55:46,000 --> 00:55:48,880 poison, like an emetic poison, at the end of her pen where she 1116 00:55:48,880 --> 00:55:51,120 drinks into his coffee. And that's what makes him start. 1117 00:55:51,120 --> 00:55:53,200 Yeah, yeah. I think I was just like, so 1118 00:55:53,200 --> 00:55:55,520 blown away by the fact that I saw a real last tail line short 1119 00:55:55,520 --> 00:55:57,240 on that. I was like, I can't even say. 1120 00:55:57,240 --> 00:55:59,800 Skip to the fact that she a drug involved just now, but yeah. 1121 00:56:00,720 --> 00:56:03,600 But to a seasoned hitman world assassination player that I am, 1122 00:56:03,880 --> 00:56:05,640 I saw the emetic poison straight away. 1123 00:56:05,640 --> 00:56:06,800 I was like, I know where he's going. 1124 00:56:07,600 --> 00:56:09,920 So he gets back to his desk immediately chucked into a bin, 1125 00:56:09,920 --> 00:56:12,360 takes a bin into the heads, starts washing out a little bit 1126 00:56:12,360 --> 00:56:15,280 of comedy value of him being sick and sick and sick and sick. 1127 00:56:15,480 --> 00:56:17,560 And that's what buys them time to to break into the vault. 1128 00:56:17,680 --> 00:56:20,160 So yeah, they have this funky little gadget that gets past the 1129 00:56:20,200 --> 00:56:23,400 the wire net thing, the laser net over the top of the the 1130 00:56:23,400 --> 00:56:24,760 vault. They go in from above a creeping 1131 00:56:24,760 --> 00:56:28,080 through the vents. One guy comes to check out where 1132 00:56:28,080 --> 00:56:29,080 they are. There's like there's two of you 1133 00:56:29,080 --> 00:56:30,160 in here. Where's the third guy? 1134 00:56:30,160 --> 00:56:31,960 And like Ethan just kicks him and knocks him out straight 1135 00:56:31,960 --> 00:56:34,680 away. It's like, look, look, Krieger's 1136 00:56:34,680 --> 00:56:37,200 about to kill him with a knife and he's like no body counts. 1137 00:56:37,560 --> 00:56:40,600 Because obviously, you know, Krieger wants to do a high chaos 1138 00:56:40,600 --> 00:56:42,280 run. Hunt wants to do a lower chaos 1139 00:56:42,280 --> 00:56:47,440 run. I like how Jean Reynolds playing 1140 00:56:47,920 --> 00:56:51,360 suspiciously violent Frenchman with a German name clearly used 1141 00:56:51,360 --> 00:56:55,560 to set it from some very sketchy French foreign legionnaire who 1142 00:56:55,560 --> 00:56:58,640 joined in the 90s and was very good with an MG40 to some 1143 00:56:58,720 --> 00:57:01,840 reason. It runs since a family don't 1144 00:57:01,960 --> 00:57:09,200 ask. And then we have the an iconic 1145 00:57:09,640 --> 00:57:12,520 scene of them lowering Heath Hunt down into the vault. 1146 00:57:12,800 --> 00:57:14,760 And then there's the he's obviously meant to get lowered 1147 00:57:14,760 --> 00:57:16,520 down. He's just some typi typi has to 1148 00:57:16,520 --> 00:57:17,840 get pulled back up again of the rush. 1149 00:57:17,880 --> 00:57:21,800 And then the MVP of the movie, a cute little rat comes along and 1150 00:57:21,800 --> 00:57:24,000 bothers John Renault and Ethan Hunt gets dropped. 1151 00:57:24,000 --> 00:57:27,160 And there's that whole iconic bit rate falls and just it's 1152 00:57:27,160 --> 00:57:29,040 just caught before we get to the top of the floor and he's like 1153 00:57:29,360 --> 00:57:32,080 wobbling around for ages. Partly when they were shooting 1154 00:57:32,080 --> 00:57:35,000 that home crews get hit in his head off the floor. 1155 00:57:36,160 --> 00:57:38,960 So to stop him doing that he started putting loads of coins 1156 00:57:38,960 --> 00:57:42,080 in the in his shoes to like change the the print of his 1157 00:57:42,080 --> 00:57:44,880 body. Can I just say something tells 1158 00:57:44,880 --> 00:57:46,680 me is a very short man in Hollywood? 1159 00:57:47,320 --> 00:57:49,160 He is. This is not the first time he's 1160 00:57:49,160 --> 00:57:51,720 put things in his shoes for the benefit of his film career. 1161 00:57:52,320 --> 00:57:53,960 Yeah. Or every occasion where he had 1162 00:57:53,960 --> 00:57:55,240 to stand next to his wife, Nicole Cuban. 1163 00:57:55,360 --> 00:57:56,280 But yeah, Awesome. Yeah. 1164 00:57:57,400 --> 00:57:59,160 So you got all that. What I love about this movie and 1165 00:57:59,160 --> 00:58:02,600 in the sequence in particular, is it does everything it does to 1166 00:58:02,600 --> 00:58:05,560 make it tense. So you get so you get the 1167 00:58:05,560 --> 00:58:08,240 example of like the floor pressure plate sensor going off 1168 00:58:08,240 --> 00:58:11,080 on a single drop of water from the guy's ice tea drops on it 1169 00:58:11,080 --> 00:58:13,120 during the briefing and you see that happening. 1170 00:58:13,160 --> 00:58:16,760 What goes red like it like the anti Billie Jean floor and then 1171 00:58:16,760 --> 00:58:21,320 the goes off really bad. And then for like maximum 1172 00:58:21,320 --> 00:58:24,480 cinematic like look, you have like an insane thing. 1173 00:58:24,560 --> 00:58:27,080 Bear with me here. Even Hunt is wearing spectacles 1174 00:58:27,080 --> 00:58:28,880 during this. He doesn't wear spectacles 1175 00:58:29,320 --> 00:58:31,640 practically for the rest of the movie, but for some reason these 1176 00:58:31,640 --> 00:58:35,200 spectacles during the sequence. OK, I don't know why. 1177 00:58:35,360 --> 00:58:36,440 Maybe there's a reason, not sure. 1178 00:58:36,800 --> 00:58:41,040 And then a bead of sweat comes from his head onto the outside 1179 00:58:41,040 --> 00:58:44,240 of the of the frame, Like the lens of the of the of the 1180 00:58:44,240 --> 00:58:48,280 glasses drips across the lens and then is about to drip off 1181 00:58:48,280 --> 00:58:51,440 the frame of the glasses. And it looks cinematic as hell. 1182 00:58:51,440 --> 00:58:53,320 But nobody sweats outside their glasses. 1183 00:58:53,440 --> 00:58:56,600 Yeah, you know what I mean. I think like the glasses thing 1184 00:58:56,600 --> 00:58:59,240 is because that's like where they've got their kind of like 1185 00:58:59,280 --> 00:59:01,120 cameras, right? Like the like the kind of 1186 00:59:01,120 --> 00:59:03,160 glasses comes and like track like it's probably. 1187 00:59:03,400 --> 00:59:04,840 Probably probably isn't it going you? 1188 00:59:04,840 --> 00:59:09,080 Know like yeah, yeah, but that's a massive sell of the MIC. 1189 00:59:09,320 --> 00:59:12,080 That's a massive over sell of the middle industrial complex at 1190 00:59:12,080 --> 00:59:14,320 that point. Haven't kind of cameras so 1191 00:59:14,320 --> 00:59:17,520 miniaturising when normal ass glasses with them and like you 1192 00:59:17,520 --> 00:59:19,480 know, it's it's just totally invisible. 1193 00:59:20,280 --> 00:59:24,680 They get the list from the computer Despite that that that 1194 00:59:24,680 --> 00:59:26,880 rat. Oh, I like the bit when they're 1195 00:59:26,880 --> 00:59:29,680 testing the microphone of the room by saying the word toast 1196 00:59:29,760 --> 00:59:30,400 over. Yeah. 1197 00:59:30,600 --> 00:59:34,360 I really like that toast. Toast, toast, toast. 1198 00:59:34,840 --> 00:59:37,360 I thought you're going kind of fancy some toast does it? 1199 00:59:37,480 --> 00:59:39,200 Does it? Does anyone have any insight as 1200 00:59:39,200 --> 00:59:40,760 to why? They're using the word toast, by 1201 00:59:40,760 --> 00:59:43,600 the way. I don't got any insight. 1202 00:59:43,600 --> 00:59:45,120 If I was going to guess, I would say this. 1203 00:59:46,160 --> 00:59:47,880 The sibilance of the words of the teeth, yeah. 1204 00:59:48,560 --> 00:59:51,360 Yeah, it starts like a plosive at the start and the end, the 1205 00:59:51,360 --> 00:59:53,280 toast and then the toast. Yeah. 1206 00:59:53,280 --> 00:59:56,400 So it's like a close, close, close and sibilance. 1207 00:59:56,400 --> 00:59:57,640 Yeah. Welcome to clear and present. 1208 00:59:57,640 --> 01:00:01,000 Dudes. When we deeply, deeply dissect 1209 01:00:01,160 --> 01:00:05,760 why they used the word toast in this film, there is a high 1210 01:00:05,760 --> 01:00:09,360 possibility that all of us in our childhood arranged toy cars 1211 01:00:09,360 --> 01:00:10,840 in a sequence. My God, what? 1212 01:00:11,360 --> 01:00:12,720 Are we doing with our lives, Gordon? 1213 01:00:12,720 --> 01:00:14,120 Now for something. Completely different. 1214 01:00:15,280 --> 01:00:17,760 Yeah, and that thing is close up magic. 1215 01:00:17,920 --> 01:00:24,480 So Tom Cruise gives the Nautilus to Krieger and then he goes back 1216 01:00:24,480 --> 01:00:27,880 to his hobby of typing into a laptop, trying to something be 1217 01:00:28,080 --> 01:00:29,320 seen. It's like he's forgotten which 1218 01:00:29,680 --> 01:00:32,000 e-mail address he's going into because he's he's concentrating 1219 01:00:32,000 --> 01:00:34,640 way too hard trying to remember the typing it all in and looking 1220 01:00:34,640 --> 01:00:38,520 at the Bible and stuff. Krieger's trying to get his 1221 01:00:38,520 --> 01:00:41,120 attention. He's like, you've done, I'm 1222 01:00:41,120 --> 01:00:44,000 sorry, Mr. Hunt, and he's just getting chinned off and chinned 1223 01:00:44,000 --> 01:00:46,200 off and chinned off. Eventually throws the Bible on 1224 01:00:46,200 --> 01:00:48,800 the floor and he's like, you're not going to take any meetings 1225 01:00:48,800 --> 01:00:50,480 without me because I've got this. 1226 01:00:50,480 --> 01:00:53,920 And then Tom Cruise does this incredible close up magic 1227 01:00:53,920 --> 01:00:57,240 sequence where he has another disc and he's like doing all 1228 01:00:57,240 --> 01:00:59,480 these little things, making it disappear and picking out 1229 01:00:59,640 --> 01:01:02,920 Claire's coves and whipping out of his sleeve and throwing it 1230 01:01:02,920 --> 01:01:05,000 around. And he convinces Krieger that 1231 01:01:05,000 --> 01:01:07,600 Krieger's has got the real list. He's like, do you really think 1232 01:01:07,600 --> 01:01:11,560 I'd give you the actual list? So Cricket froze it in the bin 1233 01:01:11,600 --> 01:01:15,720 and walks out and then even picked about the bin because it 1234 01:01:15,720 --> 01:01:16,800 was the real list. I love that. 1235 01:01:16,840 --> 01:01:18,120 That's so good. It's just. 1236 01:01:18,120 --> 01:01:21,160 Smart writing at Spycraft. It's fun. 1237 01:01:21,200 --> 01:01:24,640 It's it's, I think I may have said this in previous films that 1238 01:01:24,640 --> 01:01:27,640 we've talked about. It's just smart people doing 1239 01:01:27,640 --> 01:01:31,840 smart things in a smart script, and it's just really cool. 1240 01:01:34,560 --> 01:01:36,600 I like this. So this scene they cut straight 1241 01:01:36,600 --> 01:01:38,760 from Langley to, like, London during the safe house in London. 1242 01:01:39,640 --> 01:01:41,360 Well, I say this movie is goofy. This is the kind of thing. 1243 01:01:41,360 --> 01:01:45,000 I mean, there's no explanation about how they've got a safe 1244 01:01:45,000 --> 01:01:47,440 house in London. It's just assumed that they're 1245 01:01:47,440 --> 01:01:49,960 in a safe house, and I guess they've got one, even though 1246 01:01:49,960 --> 01:01:51,320 they're completely disavowed from the rest of the 1247 01:01:51,320 --> 01:01:52,600 organisation. So how could they use its 1248 01:01:52,600 --> 01:01:53,920 resources? Don't know. 1249 01:01:54,480 --> 01:01:55,800 Yeah. He's obviously never had to fill 1250 01:01:55,800 --> 01:01:58,080 in a budget control form and talk to the travel cell. 1251 01:01:58,200 --> 01:02:01,200 That's fine. I am doing that right now and I 1252 01:02:01,200 --> 01:02:04,800 want to die. So having all the all the front 1253 01:02:04,800 --> 01:02:07,400 of the feather, I like the scene because it gives a good 1254 01:02:07,760 --> 01:02:11,040 humanising moment for Luther and sets him up, I think for the 1255 01:02:11,040 --> 01:02:13,640 kind of implies sequel bait that you get at the end of the movie 1256 01:02:13,640 --> 01:02:16,320 as well that that Luther's going to be coming and joining the 1257 01:02:16,320 --> 01:02:21,760 team because he's like he gives because he gives an Oculus to 1258 01:02:21,760 --> 01:02:23,360 Luther and says I'm going to trust you with it. 1259 01:02:23,960 --> 01:02:25,560 You know what this means. He's like, I won't let it get 1260 01:02:25,560 --> 01:02:27,080 out. So he's like, this guy is like a 1261 01:02:27,080 --> 01:02:30,680 annoying hacker, but he's got a heart of gold and a conscience. 1262 01:02:30,680 --> 01:02:36,680 Ethan calls up Kittridge to kind of clue out that he's in 1263 01:02:36,680 --> 01:02:38,560 England. So he has him on the phone just 1264 01:02:38,560 --> 01:02:40,600 long enough that they can trace that he's in England, but not 1265 01:02:40,600 --> 01:02:42,520 nothing more. And then one of my favourite 1266 01:02:42,520 --> 01:02:45,440 scenes is happens. So Phelps just kind of appears 1267 01:02:45,440 --> 01:02:48,440 next to him at the phone box. And we have the the the Ethan 1268 01:02:48,440 --> 01:02:52,000 Hunt, Jim Phelps reunion. And. 1269 01:02:52,000 --> 01:02:55,960 I love this because Jim Phelps starts telling him his side of 1270 01:02:55,960 --> 01:02:59,400 the story about what happened during the botched mission in 1271 01:02:59,400 --> 01:03:02,800 Prague, and he's blaming on Kittridge and saying Kittridge 1272 01:03:02,800 --> 01:03:06,880 is like, set this whole thing up and Hunt is going, yeah, no, I 1273 01:03:06,880 --> 01:03:09,000 totally understand. Yeah, it must have been that. 1274 01:03:09,240 --> 01:03:11,120 But then we're seeing what Hunt is thinking. 1275 01:03:11,600 --> 01:03:13,520 And he's already said and he's already stressed it out that 1276 01:03:13,520 --> 01:03:17,240 it's all Phelps. And there's even one bit where 1277 01:03:17,240 --> 01:03:19,320 he's thinking class off that car bomb. 1278 01:03:19,840 --> 01:03:22,120 He's like, no, hang on. No, it was it was. 1279 01:03:22,120 --> 01:03:23,520 It was Phelps. You have like class. 1280 01:03:23,720 --> 01:03:26,040 You have like that bit where it looks like the disaster girl 1281 01:03:26,040 --> 01:03:27,600 meme where like the house is on fire and the. 1282 01:03:27,600 --> 01:03:28,880 Girl's looking easily at the camera. 1283 01:03:29,080 --> 01:03:31,160 Yeah. And she's like, yeah, you have 1284 01:03:31,160 --> 01:03:32,680 the same. Thing so she says suffer car 1285 01:03:32,680 --> 01:03:34,000 bomb. Then she turns the camera and 1286 01:03:34,000 --> 01:03:34,920 looks really evil. Yeah. 1287 01:03:34,920 --> 01:03:36,160 And then he's like, oh, it could have been. 1288 01:03:36,160 --> 01:03:37,920 Actually, no, it could have been Phelps, you see? 1289 01:03:37,920 --> 01:03:40,240 Phelps like, get out together. He cheques his watch and he's 1290 01:03:40,240 --> 01:03:42,240 like, ah, it's explosion time, time. 1291 01:03:42,400 --> 01:03:45,040 Bang Yeah. So I love that because, again, 1292 01:03:45,040 --> 01:03:47,160 it doesn't treat the audience like they're stupid. 1293 01:03:47,440 --> 01:03:49,400 Like we could have figured out that Phelps was behind at the 1294 01:03:49,400 --> 01:03:51,400 beginning. You see just enough of it to put 1295 01:03:51,400 --> 01:03:54,080 that together, and then now it doesn't try to string you along 1296 01:03:54,080 --> 01:03:55,360 that Phelps is like the good guy. 1297 01:03:55,600 --> 01:03:58,720 Like we know Phelps is a shit because we're seeing like Ethan 1298 01:03:58,720 --> 01:04:03,480 figure it out there and then and the the sort of the driving 1299 01:04:03,720 --> 01:04:07,640 force from there is actually like, how's how's Hunt going to 1300 01:04:07,640 --> 01:04:09,520 get out of this now? Because he's kind of playing 1301 01:04:09,520 --> 01:04:10,880 into it. He's going to start playing 1302 01:04:10,880 --> 01:04:12,360 along with Phelps and be part of Phelps plan. 1303 01:04:12,360 --> 01:04:15,600 So how's he going to outsmart Phelps and Kitteridge and get 1304 01:04:15,600 --> 01:04:18,360 out of this? It's kind of like what's what's 1305 01:04:18,400 --> 01:04:20,080 left? I don't think the movie like 1306 01:04:20,080 --> 01:04:22,480 100% nails it, but it gets pretty close, I think. 1307 01:04:22,560 --> 01:04:23,560 What are your? What are your thoughts? 1308 01:04:23,920 --> 01:04:25,600 The whole. Station scene is incredible to 1309 01:04:25,600 --> 01:04:27,000 me. I think I said out loud a few 1310 01:04:27,000 --> 01:04:28,680 times like this is so fucking cool. 1311 01:04:28,720 --> 01:04:31,800 Just again, the way it's shot. It's like the whole like 1312 01:04:31,800 --> 01:04:34,880 blocking in the scenes where people are even down mechanic, 1313 01:04:34,880 --> 01:04:37,040 the coloured reading stuff as like a film from a different 1314 01:04:37,040 --> 01:04:40,960 time. It's there's a big theme of 1315 01:04:41,000 --> 01:04:43,600 like, I don't know if I've you know, I've this is a theme that 1316 01:04:43,600 --> 01:04:45,320 probably is going to appear or not these films out here. 1317 01:04:45,320 --> 01:04:48,840 But the cold wars ended. There's your garden, the second 1318 01:04:48,840 --> 01:04:51,120 new garden. There's like leg the crossover 1319 01:04:51,120 --> 01:04:54,720 between them, like in like in the state how a few opening 1320 01:04:54,720 --> 01:04:57,440 beats of any to see it or like a thriller from like the 70s. 1321 01:04:57,440 --> 01:05:02,200 Then it goes in like it's like super kinetic late 90s mood. 1322 01:05:02,400 --> 01:05:05,760 But in this it's it's shot in a very sedate kind of way. 1323 01:05:05,760 --> 01:05:08,680 That is from another time. And you've got this conversation 1324 01:05:08,680 --> 01:05:12,480 between an old cold warrior and his young protege and it's just 1325 01:05:12,480 --> 01:05:16,560 like you're watching the terminus of two worlds at a 1326 01:05:16,560 --> 01:05:19,160 literal terminus at A at a station. 1327 01:05:19,160 --> 01:05:23,960 I think that's incredibly cool. It's, it's liminal stage really 1328 01:05:23,960 --> 01:05:29,960 in both their relationship in, in like the world's political 1329 01:05:29,960 --> 01:05:33,720 situation and in the future of espionage and what people are 1330 01:05:33,720 --> 01:05:35,440 going to do and how and stuff, you know. 1331 01:05:36,400 --> 01:05:39,040 It's a theme that we're going to see in a lot of these movies, 1332 01:05:39,040 --> 01:05:43,320 which is intelligence agencies suddenly no longer having the 1333 01:05:43,320 --> 01:05:46,360 influence they had on central government that they used to, 1334 01:05:46,640 --> 01:05:49,360 and then certain members of those agencies whipping up stuff 1335 01:05:49,480 --> 01:05:51,360 so that they can reclaim a bit of triangle. 1336 01:05:52,200 --> 01:05:53,760 Land. Grabbing again for their their 1337 01:05:53,760 --> 01:05:57,360 respective agencies and there's. There's that fantastic line for, 1338 01:05:57,360 --> 01:05:59,720 you know, the president of the United States is running the 1339 01:05:59,720 --> 01:06:01,600 country without your permission. How dare he? 1340 01:06:01,640 --> 01:06:04,080 And it's like, yeah, how dare he? 1341 01:06:04,760 --> 01:06:05,760 Yeah. Exactly. 1342 01:06:05,760 --> 01:06:08,560 That isn't it? It's and it reflects something 1343 01:06:08,560 --> 01:06:12,800 that that kind of happened in real life, which is Cold War 1344 01:06:13,320 --> 01:06:16,400 drew to a close and then there was a moment where everyone was 1345 01:06:16,400 --> 01:06:19,680 like, great, thank fuck. This is an opportunity for us 1346 01:06:19,680 --> 01:06:22,600 all now to reduce our defence spending so our countries have a 1347 01:06:22,600 --> 01:06:25,840 fucking fighting chance of making it through the 1348 01:06:26,120 --> 01:06:31,280 economically shitstorm of the 1980s after the after the 1349 01:06:31,280 --> 01:06:33,080 previous economic shitstorm of the 1970s. 1350 01:06:33,480 --> 01:06:36,480 You know, so I think everybody willed into existence a little 1351 01:06:36,480 --> 01:06:39,160 bit, didn't they? And then people in the military, 1352 01:06:39,160 --> 01:06:42,040 people in the intelligence community were all still very 1353 01:06:42,040 --> 01:06:43,560 much saying like, yeah, yeah, I get it. 1354 01:06:43,560 --> 01:06:44,880 The focus is shifting away from Russia. 1355 01:06:44,880 --> 01:06:47,160 I get it. But the threat hasn't really 1356 01:06:47,440 --> 01:06:49,160 gone away. It's just kind of developing and 1357 01:06:49,160 --> 01:06:50,800 changing. And now we're in a situation 1358 01:06:50,800 --> 01:06:54,640 where weirdly and almost nostalgically, we are back very 1359 01:06:54,640 --> 01:06:56,520 much on the front foot looking, looking towards. 1360 01:06:56,520 --> 01:07:00,160 Russia is our primary adversary. And China obviously is a big 1361 01:07:00,160 --> 01:07:02,760 concern for the United Kingdom. China is probably America's 1362 01:07:02,760 --> 01:07:05,720 primary adversary at the minute, and their relationship brochure 1363 01:07:05,720 --> 01:07:08,960 is deeply contested, contentious and deeply. 1364 01:07:09,080 --> 01:07:12,920 Sterning as well. Indeed, this movie happens in a 1365 01:07:12,920 --> 01:07:15,080 moment where. And we talked about this with 1366 01:07:15,160 --> 01:07:17,880 Enemy of the State and we talked about it with OP Centre as well. 1367 01:07:17,880 --> 01:07:21,800 Yeah. Where the adversary wasn't as 1368 01:07:21,800 --> 01:07:22,960 pleased to find. Yeah. 1369 01:07:23,320 --> 01:07:26,080 And what would happen a couple years after this was that 1370 01:07:26,080 --> 01:07:29,360 everything would become vaguely Middle Eastern, which would get 1371 01:07:29,360 --> 01:07:31,600 hammered to him after 911, and then it would become the Middle 1372 01:07:31,600 --> 01:07:34,880 East as the big bad. And then it become any 1373 01:07:34,880 --> 01:07:38,600 insurgency and then any terrorist organisation after a 1374 01:07:38,600 --> 01:07:40,960 while. And now we're back to a good old 1375 01:07:40,960 --> 01:07:42,040 peer conflict. Yeah. 1376 01:07:42,040 --> 01:07:43,920 So I think. Like before, but before 1377 01:07:43,920 --> 01:07:46,000 everything like swung like vehicle in Middle East and the 1378 01:07:46,000 --> 01:07:50,280 Electra properties, the focus was kind of on like, Oh well, 1379 01:07:50,280 --> 01:07:52,520 Eastern Eastern Europe. Now it's been like days. 1380 01:07:52,520 --> 01:07:55,120 So of your eyes, there's going to be this like powder keg and. 1381 01:07:56,800 --> 01:08:00,240 You have all these uniformed countries are still massively 1382 01:08:00,240 --> 01:08:01,880 under the influence of the old garden. 1383 01:08:02,080 --> 01:08:04,240 I remember all. These, like, breathless 1384 01:08:04,240 --> 01:08:08,400 newspaper articles talking about the proliferation of these like, 1385 01:08:08,400 --> 01:08:12,440 surmised Soviet briefcase nukes. The newspapers like the 1386 01:08:12,440 --> 01:08:14,480 Telegraph and stuff forgetting themselves and tried to be 1387 01:08:14,480 --> 01:08:15,920 lubricated about. Yeah, yeah. 1388 01:08:16,160 --> 01:08:17,439 Yeah. Crazy times. 1389 01:08:18,000 --> 01:08:19,279 Yeah, right. Indeed. 1390 01:08:20,319 --> 01:08:22,520 Well, we're actually kind of near the end of the movie now. 1391 01:08:23,120 --> 01:08:26,680 This movie bounces along by the way it is, it is swift and I 1392 01:08:26,680 --> 01:08:31,120 think, I think as they go on, I think they all get progressed a 1393 01:08:31,120 --> 01:08:33,880 little bit longer, don't they? There's a lot of blokes you 1394 01:08:33,880 --> 01:08:36,399 haven't seen Dead Reckoning and Final Reckon yet, but mate, 1395 01:08:36,399 --> 01:08:39,640 those films are at least twice as long as they need to be. 1396 01:08:39,640 --> 01:08:42,840 Yeah, each, I think. Mission Impossible Two could 1397 01:08:42,840 --> 01:08:45,720 have had 20 minutes cut out of it, yeah. 1398 01:08:45,760 --> 01:08:47,200 Or an hour in 20 minutes kind of it. 1399 01:08:49,880 --> 01:08:52,000 It could have been a. Metallica music video. 1400 01:08:52,080 --> 01:08:54,680 Basically, they could have what I'm. 1401 01:08:54,680 --> 01:08:58,080 Sorry I was just just trying to not cut in but the the whole 1402 01:08:58,080 --> 01:09:02,960 Liverpool Street scene sort of us giving me noir vibes. 1403 01:09:03,840 --> 01:09:10,600 Just importantly colour ish. I guess I was mostly irritated 1404 01:09:10,600 --> 01:09:13,160 by just the absolute downpour of rain. 1405 01:09:13,160 --> 01:09:17,359 Now it's just like like rainy London at that extent. 1406 01:09:17,359 --> 01:09:20,160 It's just such a detective novel. 1407 01:09:20,160 --> 01:09:22,600 Cliche. But every time I've been in 1408 01:09:22,600 --> 01:09:25,000 London, no matter the time of year, I've just absolutely been 1409 01:09:25,000 --> 01:09:27,319 scorched. There's been no rain whatsoever. 1410 01:09:27,640 --> 01:09:31,279 But yeah. It's a foggy London town or 1411 01:09:31,279 --> 01:09:33,600 rainy London town, and it's like. 1412 01:09:34,200 --> 01:09:37,200 Yeah, there's a scene towards the end where I had cops and 1413 01:09:37,200 --> 01:09:39,720 lands on a helipad opposite Tower Bridge where it's like, 1414 01:09:39,720 --> 01:09:42,200 still a nice day, but you're right. 1415 01:09:42,200 --> 01:09:46,960 Like that is the trip, isn't it? It's like we dug up Conan Doyle 1416 01:09:46,960 --> 01:09:49,399 and put him in front of the camera and and he did a thing 1417 01:09:49,399 --> 01:09:52,920 and, and now it's it's raining. Yeah, but all you. 1418 01:09:52,920 --> 01:09:55,120 Hit really good point about like that being like quite in war 1419 01:09:55,120 --> 01:09:57,640 scene and you're totally right. I think a lot of it as well 1420 01:09:57,640 --> 01:10:00,880 comes like obviously the camera fan environment. 1421 01:10:01,040 --> 01:10:03,840 Yeah, upstairs. Room as well, yeah. 1422 01:10:04,400 --> 01:10:06,400 And like, of course, with noir, like I mean, it's something like 1423 01:10:06,400 --> 01:10:08,960 the Lords, Rory Ganders bullshit, like the city is the 1424 01:10:08,960 --> 01:10:12,440 star of the of the film war, you know, and like the architecture 1425 01:10:12,440 --> 01:10:14,320 that you say and stuff. And that's very worse. 1426 01:10:14,680 --> 01:10:16,640 There's not a very war scene later on that will get there 1427 01:10:16,640 --> 01:10:19,520 when probably a few minutes because this film does that run 1428 01:10:19,520 --> 01:10:22,880 at quite appears later on in the train in in the kind of like and 1429 01:10:22,880 --> 01:10:27,120 like cargo part of the train where the lighting is just 1430 01:10:27,120 --> 01:10:29,520 incredibly noir. Yeah, big time. 1431 01:10:29,520 --> 01:10:31,560 I'll queue it up a little bit. Some pretend to be Phelps and 1432 01:10:31,560 --> 01:10:35,040 arranges to exchange the list, the actual knock list with Max 1433 01:10:35,040 --> 01:10:38,320 on board the the IT says TGV, but it's like you're a star, 1434 01:10:38,320 --> 01:10:40,160 isn't it? Yeah, Paris. 1435 01:10:40,800 --> 01:10:44,040 So. You know the the trains 1436 01:10:44,040 --> 01:10:47,160 mentioned. Transports it is really into. 1437 01:10:47,160 --> 01:10:54,640 Transportation.

It's not the Eurostar, which is 1440 01:11:00,160 --> 01:11:03,160 a totally different trains. The TJV doesn't leave France 1441 01:11:03,280 --> 01:11:06,080 and. And yes, they're about to go for 1442 01:11:06,080 --> 01:11:08,880 the channel, Yeah. I mean I I'm maybe wrong. 1443 01:11:08,880 --> 01:11:11,400 I'm sure the TJV doesn't actually leave. 1444 01:11:11,400 --> 01:11:13,320 No, I think you're right. The. 1445 01:11:13,320 --> 01:11:15,720 Eurostars Europe.

This right, this is where the 1466 01:12:12,120 --> 01:12:18,240 podcast shifts to a really bad sitcom, a sit pod, a sit pod com 1467 01:12:18,680 --> 01:12:21,160 sit pod. We have, we have we have just 1468 01:12:21,160 --> 01:12:25,000 willed the horror that is a sit pod into being. 1469 01:12:25,000 --> 01:12:29,040 By the way, that's an awful idea and hope no one ever does this. 1470 01:12:32,880 --> 01:12:36,160 The next day, Max and Ethan arranged to meet on board the 1471 01:12:36,440 --> 01:12:41,360 TJV on board on route to Paris, with Claire and Luther on board 1472 01:12:41,680 --> 01:12:43,880 to provide backup. Kitteridge is also on board, 1473 01:12:44,000 --> 01:12:46,200 having recently arrived in London and received tickets to 1474 01:12:46,200 --> 01:12:48,840 the TJV and a video watch from Hunts. 1475 01:12:50,320 --> 01:12:54,240 And in the train, Ethan delivers the supposed knocklist to Max 1476 01:12:54,440 --> 01:12:55,680 remotely. He gives her a call and she's 1477 01:12:55,680 --> 01:12:57,520 got it. Like, it's like, it's like being 1478 01:12:57,520 --> 01:12:59,200 on Oprah. It's like, oh, if you look under 1479 01:12:59,200 --> 01:13:02,200 your chair, everybody gets an knocklist. 1480 01:13:02,200 --> 01:13:04,360 You get an knocklist. And she's like, oh great. 1481 01:13:04,360 --> 01:13:07,640 Oh God, I hope this doesn't preclude an in person meeting 1482 01:13:07,800 --> 01:13:09,080 because she's like super horny for him. 1483 01:13:10,000 --> 01:13:12,360 Wonderful. And then her and a little dweeb 1484 01:13:12,640 --> 01:13:16,320 and nerd guy. A little it, really. 1485 01:13:16,320 --> 01:13:20,000 Wasn't a great time for like a dweebie sidekick, wasn't it? 1486 01:13:20,600 --> 01:13:22,080 Yeah, and he's. Like I can't seem to log on. 1487 01:13:23,480 --> 01:13:26,600 Yeah, I've not connected to the. Mode she's like struggling to 1488 01:13:26,600 --> 01:13:29,560 because she has to like upload it somewhere to verify I think 1489 01:13:29,560 --> 01:13:33,400 is the purpose of that and Lisa's there with some kind of 1490 01:13:33,400 --> 01:13:37,840 like like short range Jana which he like has on his like table 1491 01:13:37,840 --> 01:13:41,000 which is like just along from hers and he tries to like leave 1492 01:13:41,000 --> 01:13:43,400 it on the table yeah and get up and walk away but it's. 1493 01:13:43,400 --> 01:13:46,960 Inexplicably fucking flashing and shaped like a mobile phone 1494 01:13:46,960 --> 01:13:49,080 as well. So a train attendant just picks 1495 01:13:49,080 --> 01:13:51,320 it up and gives him. It's like, yeah. 1496 01:13:51,400 --> 01:13:53,320 That's it. You left this behind him, Sir. 1497 01:13:53,320 --> 01:13:53,640 It's. Like. 1498 01:13:54,200 --> 01:13:56,720 You could have. Built it into like any shape, 1499 01:13:56,720 --> 01:13:58,400 right? You could have built it in like 1500 01:13:58,440 --> 01:14:01,680 anything you know, have trained, probably smoked on trains back 1501 01:14:01,680 --> 01:14:02,880 then. It's France to probably still 1502 01:14:02,880 --> 01:14:07,120 do, you know, I don't, I don't. Understand why he he doesn't 1503 01:14:07,120 --> 01:14:10,680 like obviously you've got like a train has a little Symphony has 1504 01:14:10,680 --> 01:14:12,560 a little tray table. I think he had an actual table. 1505 01:14:12,560 --> 01:14:15,240 I'm not sure but like is there not like a little pouch You 1506 01:14:15,240 --> 01:14:18,000 could have like hit it in on the chair in front or something like 1507 01:14:18,000 --> 01:14:19,000 an aeroplanes. I mean I. 1508 01:14:19,000 --> 01:14:21,040 Mean, you literally just said show in the upholstery, couldn't 1509 01:14:21,040 --> 01:14:22,360 you? Just like you could have. 1510 01:14:22,360 --> 01:14:24,000 Yeah. Or like put it like in the 1511 01:14:24,040 --> 01:14:26,200 little move ahead baggage compartment. 1512 01:14:26,200 --> 01:14:28,040 Yeah. So it's also incredibly obvious. 1513 01:14:28,040 --> 01:14:28,680 Yeah. I mean like, it's not. 1514 01:14:28,680 --> 01:14:32,320 Like a metro train when you've got like the Titan we are metro 1515 01:14:32,320 --> 01:14:34,760 train when you've got like the the upholstery, then like some 1516 01:14:34,760 --> 01:14:36,600 metal so you can't push anything under it. 1517 01:14:36,600 --> 01:14:38,960 Like when when the pure checkies come on or. 1518 01:14:42,680 --> 01:14:44,200 Flash of. Yellow. 1519 01:14:46,280 --> 01:14:48,120 It's our. Read just just. 1520 01:14:48,720 --> 01:14:53,920 On the subject of trains, I've just checked on and technically 1521 01:14:53,920 --> 01:14:58,640 they are the same train. So Eurostar and the French 1522 01:14:58,640 --> 01:15:02,120 National Rail line used the same stock. 1523 01:15:02,760 --> 01:15:04,840 The same. Stock right they used. 1524 01:15:04,840 --> 01:15:11,040 The same engines and it used to be initially the same TGV models 1525 01:15:11,040 --> 01:15:13,240 running through the channel from that will go. 1526 01:15:13,240 --> 01:15:15,560 Yeah, because as you can see, it's in, it's in tasty delivery. 1527 01:15:15,560 --> 01:15:17,960 Yeah, but. Eurostar was founded together 1528 01:15:17,960 --> 01:15:21,600 with the opening of the Channel, so while technically 1529 01:15:22,120 --> 01:15:26,640 mechanically ATGV, you probably wouldn't have found one with a 1530 01:15:27,840 --> 01:15:31,640 French National Rail service TGV livery on it. 1531 01:15:31,640 --> 01:15:33,880 Yeah, does. This mean that we're all right, 1532 01:15:34,120 --> 01:15:36,760 that we're all correct. No, it means I'm wrong. 1533 01:15:36,960 --> 01:15:38,560 I'm happy to kick me out, Goodwin said. 1534 01:15:38,560 --> 01:15:41,120 Well, yes. And no, you are correct in that 1535 01:15:41,120 --> 01:15:47,080 the the TGV livery seems to be a SNCF thing applied only 1536 01:15:47,080 --> 01:15:49,640 nationally, but it is still the same train. 1537 01:15:50,080 --> 01:15:53,360 Yeah. You realise did. 1538 01:15:53,840 --> 01:15:56,520 Did you just? See, Noah, but there or a yes. 1539 01:15:56,520 --> 01:16:00,480 And because I think you did, I think it did this. 1540 01:16:00,480 --> 01:16:01,960 Is. The moment that the podcast 1541 01:16:01,960 --> 01:16:03,560 started arguing among because itself. 1542 01:16:04,960 --> 01:16:08,560 Yes, we will never. Never become an improv podcast, 1543 01:16:08,560 --> 01:16:10,080 by the way, I'm going to write you down the barrel of the 1544 01:16:10,080 --> 01:16:12,160 camera at this, just in case anyone thinks This Is Us trying 1545 01:16:12,160 --> 01:16:15,360 to foreshadow anything for some second fucking season when we 1546 01:16:15,360 --> 01:16:18,200 start like just we're all standing together on some poorly 1547 01:16:18,200 --> 01:16:22,360 lit stage and someone's like, oh, Barber shopping Byzantium. 1548 01:16:22,400 --> 01:16:24,080 Oh, so was it Barber shopping Byzantium? 1549 01:16:24,080 --> 01:16:27,200 OK, cool. And, and, and, and I'm a, I'm a 1550 01:16:27,280 --> 01:16:30,920 oh, professional shit farmer. Awesome. 1551 01:16:31,040 --> 01:16:35,960 Yes, and. Took the last can of wax Claire 1552 01:16:35,960 --> 01:16:37,760 observing. Kit Rich's presence on board the 1553 01:16:37,760 --> 01:16:41,960 train, it's her seat and to meet with Phelps in the luggage car, 1554 01:16:41,960 --> 01:16:44,680 confirming her part in the conspiracy is silent. 1555 01:16:44,680 --> 01:16:48,440 Phelps slowly peels away his mask, revealing himself as Ethan 1556 01:16:48,680 --> 01:16:50,800 the betrayal Claire was in on it. 1557 01:16:50,920 --> 01:16:53,600 And then Phelps appears. I right. 1558 01:16:53,600 --> 01:16:55,320 This is when I this is when you know, I was saying earlier on 1559 01:16:55,320 --> 01:16:56,360 like this movie is goofy as fuck. 1560 01:16:57,200 --> 01:17:00,880 This is this is what I mean. So where does Ethan get that of 1561 01:17:00,880 --> 01:17:04,360 a mask of Phelps from to be sat there as Phelps? 1562 01:17:04,360 --> 01:17:06,520 And how long was he sat in that car as Phelps? 1563 01:17:06,600 --> 01:17:10,240 Whilst Phelps is also concealed in the same car it it's. 1564 01:17:10,280 --> 01:17:12,080 It's wild to me they should have given. 1565 01:17:12,080 --> 01:17:15,400 Phelps a Ethan Hunt mask. Yeah. 1566 01:17:15,400 --> 01:17:17,680 Oh, this is what I said. I said, right. 1567 01:17:17,800 --> 01:17:20,800 I was watching it with Fisher earlier and I said Ethan had the 1568 01:17:20,800 --> 01:17:22,880 Phelps mask. Claire should have had an Ethan 1569 01:17:22,880 --> 01:17:26,000 mask, and then Phelps should have had a Claire mask. 1570 01:17:26,880 --> 01:17:29,680 They all should have like, like it was who? 1571 01:17:29,680 --> 01:17:32,480 I don't know. Who was it the? 1572 01:17:32,480 --> 01:17:36,240 Only explanation that makes sense and it barely makes sense 1573 01:17:36,960 --> 01:17:39,920 is that the mask is reversible and has an Ethan Hunt face on 1574 01:17:39,920 --> 01:17:43,520 the inside. So Ethan just walks walks around 1575 01:17:44,000 --> 01:17:48,400 with with his face on his face. And that's. 1576 01:17:48,400 --> 01:17:51,240 The only way it can be, you know. 1577 01:17:51,520 --> 01:17:53,360 You know what would have been even better? 1578 01:17:53,360 --> 01:17:59,080 Phelps with a Hunt mask. With a Phelps mask over it, he 1579 01:17:59,080 --> 01:18:01,920 could have revealed himself as Ethan Hunt. 1580 01:18:03,160 --> 01:18:07,760 Yes, to do a. Loyalty test on his wife, yes, 1581 01:18:07,760 --> 01:18:11,760 and then gone. Fuck you, it was me. 1582 01:18:11,880 --> 01:18:13,680 It was me. All in double blade. 1583 01:18:14,320 --> 01:18:16,880 Double bask bitch. He absolutely. 1584 01:18:16,880 --> 01:18:21,520 Seems that kind of guy who would like do do loyalty tests on his 1585 01:18:21,520 --> 01:18:23,200 suspiciously young wife, wouldn't he? 1586 01:18:23,640 --> 01:18:27,480 Like you'd like, you'd like kind of kind of like get like younger 1587 01:18:27,480 --> 01:18:29,800 guys, you know, like send out texts and stuff. 1588 01:18:29,840 --> 01:18:32,640 And then it's like, I see you continue to pass your lightly 1589 01:18:32,640 --> 01:18:33,560 tests. Well done. 1590 01:18:33,600 --> 01:18:35,520 They don't see that. I don't know what the show is. 1591 01:18:35,520 --> 01:18:38,800 It's like Gordon Ramsay had a show where he was like, put on 1592 01:18:38,800 --> 01:18:42,320 these really elaborate disguises and then go out in the world and 1593 01:18:42,320 --> 01:18:46,120 like one of them is where you. It's like 1 video clip where 1594 01:18:46,120 --> 01:18:48,720 it's got like horrible horrible mask that. 1595 01:18:48,880 --> 01:18:51,080 Giant mask. He's like a giant head. 1596 01:18:51,080 --> 01:18:53,440 He's like an airline pilot with a giant head. 1597 01:18:55,840 --> 01:18:57,800 Like they should do. They should have had like, 1598 01:18:57,800 --> 01:18:59,280 that's what the masks look like in the movie. 1599 01:18:59,280 --> 01:19:01,240 They should have been like that, ridiculous like. 1600 01:19:03,360 --> 01:19:05,560 But then like have. Like the felt spask just do it 1601 01:19:05,560 --> 01:19:09,000 was giant ridiculous ones like if you got if you got bloaty 1602 01:19:09,000 --> 01:19:11,280 head disease from theme hospital. 1603 01:19:12,920 --> 01:19:15,800 It just turns up look like something from fucking Roblox. 1604 01:19:15,800 --> 01:19:18,240 Something like that I guess. What we haven't seen in the 1605 01:19:18,240 --> 01:19:21,360 background is that Ethan has figured out a little part of 1606 01:19:21,360 --> 01:19:23,240 attack with Kittridge. So they've become like, secret 1607 01:19:23,240 --> 01:19:25,680 allies because then he puts on his glasses so you can see 1608 01:19:25,680 --> 01:19:27,280 Phelps is alive and well. Yeah. 1609 01:19:27,280 --> 01:19:29,160 And then he's, like, saying to Kittridge, like, it's not me, 1610 01:19:29,240 --> 01:19:30,200 just fucking guy. Yeah. 1611 01:19:30,200 --> 01:19:31,280 This guy who faked his own death. 1612 01:19:31,440 --> 01:19:32,560 Pretty suspicious. Yeah. 1613 01:19:32,760 --> 01:19:40,080 And that is that says to Ethan the whole thing about Al shot 1614 01:19:40,080 --> 01:19:45,120 Boss covered my neighbour's wife, which is foreshadowed a 1615 01:19:45,120 --> 01:19:46,840 little bit. So I talked about the deleted 1616 01:19:47,680 --> 01:19:49,920 bit from the screenplay. There is another scene where, 1617 01:19:51,200 --> 01:19:54,000 and it's in the safe house in London, Claire goes up to Ethan 1618 01:19:54,640 --> 01:19:56,160 and gives him like a Peck on the cheek. 1619 01:19:56,520 --> 01:19:59,160 And then Ethan kind of does this thing where he holds it with his 1620 01:19:59,160 --> 01:20:01,040 finger for a second and he kind of doesn't. 1621 01:20:01,040 --> 01:20:02,200 Then he kind of doesn't know what to think. 1622 01:20:02,200 --> 01:20:03,600 And then he kind of walks away for a second. 1623 01:20:03,600 --> 01:20:05,520 Then he goes and speaks to Luther, and there's a bit like 1624 01:20:05,720 --> 01:20:06,920 he doesn't really know how to feel about that. 1625 01:20:08,040 --> 01:20:09,480 Like, oh, what? Well, I love Claire, but I 1626 01:20:09,480 --> 01:20:10,600 don't. I shouldn't have Claire. 1627 01:20:10,600 --> 01:20:11,440 It's bad. Yeah. 1628 01:20:11,920 --> 01:20:15,000 Well, I mean, when when she, when she comes to the safe house 1629 01:20:15,000 --> 01:20:17,280 in Prague, like, obviously there's the scene when they're 1630 01:20:17,600 --> 01:20:20,400 kind of all yeah, yeah, yeah, absolutely. 1631 01:20:21,200 --> 01:20:23,840 Something boils my piss about that scene, actually. 1632 01:20:24,040 --> 01:20:26,720 When he draws his gun on her and obviously he thinks she's a 1633 01:20:26,720 --> 01:20:29,400 threat and then immediately turns his back on her to see if 1634 01:20:29,400 --> 01:20:30,720 there's any other threats in the room. 1635 01:20:30,720 --> 01:20:32,600 It's like, fucking come on, dude. 1636 01:20:33,240 --> 01:20:38,760 Come on man. What do you mean sexually 1637 01:20:38,760 --> 01:20:41,200 charged? Do you not randomly put your 1638 01:20:41,200 --> 01:20:44,240 hands into your Co workers faces while talking to them? 1639 01:20:45,480 --> 01:20:48,080 Yeah, I know, right? No, I don't know. 1640 01:20:48,080 --> 01:20:53,760 We have rules about that shoots Claire, which I thought was so 1641 01:20:53,760 --> 01:20:56,600 uncalled for, but I guess it just made sense for she's and 1642 01:20:56,600 --> 01:20:59,000 and presumably she dies because we don't see her again. 1643 01:21:00,360 --> 01:21:02,320 So that's pretty brutal. And that's just hear out the 1644 01:21:02,320 --> 01:21:05,560 movie now. And then we have the on top of 1645 01:21:05,560 --> 01:21:08,000 the train fight sequence. So this is interesting. 1646 01:21:08,000 --> 01:21:11,680 So we also, we talked about, you know, touchables and how that 1647 01:21:11,680 --> 01:21:16,320 had a train fight sequence cut from the movie because for 1648 01:21:16,320 --> 01:21:21,040 budget and stuff, this is this is I guess a train fight 1649 01:21:21,040 --> 01:21:24,080 sequence that we never got. It's pretty good. 1650 01:21:24,080 --> 01:21:27,080 It's a combination of miniature, but a green screen. 1651 01:21:27,440 --> 01:21:30,640 Yeah. I liked it better when it was a 1652 01:21:30,640 --> 01:21:32,480 fight on top of a train between two guys. 1653 01:21:32,760 --> 01:21:36,240 As ridiculous as that is, it's a it's a pretty well trodden 1654 01:21:36,240 --> 01:21:37,520 troop. People get on top of trains and 1655 01:21:37,520 --> 01:21:38,440 having fights. That's. 1656 01:21:38,880 --> 01:21:40,200 One of the. Bond films, right? 1657 01:21:41,160 --> 01:21:43,560 Yeah, it's in that new Indiana Jones movie as well. 1658 01:21:43,680 --> 01:21:47,080 Captain America, Captain America, it's also in it's in 1659 01:21:47,200 --> 01:21:51,320 another Mission Impossible movie as well, so. 1660 01:21:51,560 --> 01:21:55,240 And like in in the Bond film, another vehicle is involved. 1661 01:21:56,640 --> 01:21:58,680 Yeah, yeah, yeah. So this is a bit right. 1662 01:21:58,680 --> 01:21:59,880 This is what it's going to come onto. 1663 01:21:59,880 --> 01:22:03,240 So I this might be controversial, but I am not a 1664 01:22:03,240 --> 01:22:06,400 big fan of Krieger flying the helicopter. 1665 01:22:06,560 --> 01:22:08,200 You mentioned that you can fly a helicopter earlier on. 1666 01:22:08,200 --> 01:22:09,640 I get it. That's that's not the thing that 1667 01:22:09,640 --> 01:22:11,800 annoys me. I'm just annoys about the 1668 01:22:11,800 --> 01:22:14,440 helicopter sequence in general. Like the whole like planned 1669 01:22:14,440 --> 01:22:18,520 exhale via helicopter. Yeah, that's a bit over the top 1670 01:22:19,040 --> 01:22:20,480 and. Then it going into the the 1671 01:22:20,480 --> 01:22:23,200 tunnel and I'm just thinking like I don't think the 1672 01:22:23,200 --> 01:22:25,240 helicopter would have been able to fly I. 1673 01:22:25,360 --> 01:22:29,360 Think it would have? I am having the the strong 1674 01:22:29,360 --> 01:22:32,280 suspicion that this is being. This is a small commercial 1675 01:22:32,280 --> 01:22:34,960 helicopter. I don't think it could go as 1676 01:22:34,960 --> 01:22:39,320 fast as the train, even without being attached to it. 1677 01:22:39,600 --> 01:22:43,000 I think it just snap its rotor blades the the second it starts 1678 01:22:43,000 --> 01:22:45,720 being pulled around. Yeah, I think. 1679 01:22:45,720 --> 01:22:49,360 Would simply not be able to I imagine. 1680 01:22:49,360 --> 01:22:53,840 Not a pilot, not an aeronautical engineer, just a guy who got 1681 01:22:53,840 --> 01:22:56,360 really upset when he was the kid that the colours on the spot. 1682 01:22:56,360 --> 01:22:58,560 The dogs beach ball with the wrong order at the end of the 1683 01:22:58,560 --> 01:23:00,680 book. But but I wonder if like. 1684 01:23:01,960 --> 01:23:04,160 Due to. Due like the essentially jet 1685 01:23:04,160 --> 01:23:07,280 wash from from from like the train, the kind of turbulence 1686 01:23:07,280 --> 01:23:09,560 that I've generated maybe as well what a helicopter be able 1687 01:23:09,560 --> 01:23:12,760 to even like sustain lift. And I was going to say. 1688 01:23:12,760 --> 01:23:16,560 I don't, I don't think I don't get to sustain lift because 1689 01:23:16,560 --> 01:23:20,240 obviously it's reliant on downwash, pushing up kind of 1690 01:23:20,240 --> 01:23:22,280 thing, the force created by you pushing it down. 1691 01:23:22,280 --> 01:23:25,320 And if that force is then being disappeared around in a circle 1692 01:23:25,320 --> 01:23:28,480 around the helicopter, then surely it just becomes a 1693 01:23:28,480 --> 01:23:30,960 turbulent fuck about and it immediately loses control. 1694 01:23:31,320 --> 01:23:33,360 Another thing that annoyed me about that is so they have the 1695 01:23:33,360 --> 01:23:35,480 fight, they kind of fight their way along the back of the train. 1696 01:23:35,640 --> 01:23:38,320 You get to the point where the very end of the train, the 1697 01:23:38,320 --> 01:23:42,280 helicopters here Phelps has jumped onto like the bonding 1698 01:23:42,320 --> 01:23:46,160 skid bits of the helicopter and Krieger like goes. 1699 01:23:46,320 --> 01:23:48,560 Oh, I know. It would be really fun if while 1700 01:23:48,560 --> 01:23:51,520 I'm flying this helicopter through the Channel Tunnel, 1701 01:23:51,560 --> 01:23:53,840 which incidentally means you're flying this helicopter in a 1702 01:23:53,840 --> 01:23:56,200 tunnel for miles and miles and miles now. 1703 01:23:56,520 --> 01:23:58,960 Yeah, whilst attached to the back of a train. 1704 01:23:59,480 --> 01:24:00,880 Insane. I know what I'll do. 1705 01:24:01,040 --> 01:24:04,040 I'll also decapitate Ethan Hunt with the rotor blades because 1706 01:24:04,320 --> 01:24:06,640 obviously these rotor blades getting the slightest bit 1707 01:24:06,640 --> 01:24:08,400 resistance is now exactly what I need. 1708 01:24:08,560 --> 01:24:10,160 Yeah. Like. 1709 01:24:10,560 --> 01:24:12,400 Like this isn't going to make us all die. 1710 01:24:12,400 --> 01:24:14,240 You are all. Going to die, Sir? 1711 01:24:14,400 --> 01:24:17,440 Yeah, yeah. So that was pretty fucking 1712 01:24:17,440 --> 01:24:20,280 goofy. Also, there's a bit of a cameo 1713 01:24:20,280 --> 01:24:24,160 here by David Schneider. Yeah, who at this point in time 1714 01:24:24,160 --> 01:24:27,280 I think was just in the Friday Night Armistice and other bits 1715 01:24:27,280 --> 01:24:28,960 of Armando Nichi, but who wasn't in. 1716 01:24:28,960 --> 01:24:30,520 He would have been in the original Island Partridge I 1717 01:24:30,520 --> 01:24:33,000 series as well by this point. I'm sure he. 1718 01:24:33,000 --> 01:24:37,920 Had some appearances in the day-to-day, the day-to-day jam, 1719 01:24:37,920 --> 01:24:40,040 which wasn't out at that point. Yeah. 1720 01:24:41,040 --> 01:24:42,920 And then I'm. Alan Partridge after this, which 1721 01:24:42,920 --> 01:24:46,640 he was in as Tony has the commissioning editor of the BBC 1722 01:24:46,960 --> 01:24:48,960 and. Of course, a couple a couple of 1723 01:24:48,960 --> 01:24:52,600 years later in me, more a couple years later in 28 days later as 1724 01:24:52,600 --> 01:24:55,680 he it's pure rage guy at the the lab. 1725 01:24:56,600 --> 01:24:58,600 Yeah, that. Guy gets his face eating. 1726 01:24:58,600 --> 01:25:02,280 Straight away, yeah buddy, yeah. So yeah, I thought it was good 1727 01:25:02,280 --> 01:25:04,760 for you as fuck. One of the things that you would 1728 01:25:04,760 --> 01:25:07,760 see in the 90s movie, but I don't you'd see now is like, 1729 01:25:09,280 --> 01:25:11,560 maybe you'd get in a Bond movie, but it wouldn't be as on the 1730 01:25:11,560 --> 01:25:13,360 nose as this. The whole bit where he stands up 1731 01:25:13,360 --> 01:25:15,560 and then faints again. It's like Jesus Christ, I've 1732 01:25:15,560 --> 01:25:16,520 got. Another issue. 1733 01:25:16,520 --> 01:25:20,680 So even the first model of Eurostar train was electrified. 1734 01:25:22,840 --> 01:25:26,120 So how do you fly a helicopter through that? 1735 01:25:27,320 --> 01:25:30,720 Where's this thing getting its power up from? 1736 01:25:31,680 --> 01:25:33,800 What's going on there? Yeah. 1737 01:25:35,640 --> 01:25:39,200 Do you mean like, are we are we talking like a hot rail or we're 1738 01:25:39,200 --> 01:25:43,560 talking like power, power supply in the ceiling and we're. 1739 01:25:43,560 --> 01:25:46,160 Talking overhead wiring Overhead wiring. 1740 01:25:46,520 --> 01:25:48,760 Shit, Yeah, yeah. Yeah, so I. 1741 01:25:48,760 --> 01:25:51,080 Think, I think basically it is for the whole movie in the bin, 1742 01:25:51,160 --> 01:25:53,720 Yeah, yeah. So the train guys say no, it's 1743 01:25:53,720 --> 01:25:57,880 bullshit waste. Time bucked it. 1744 01:25:58,320 --> 01:26:01,520 Yeah, I had to. Have one job, man So much. 1745 01:26:01,520 --> 01:26:02,960 Potential could have been a good movie as well. 1746 01:26:02,960 --> 01:26:04,680 That's a real shame. Fuck bullshit. 1747 01:26:05,480 --> 01:26:06,600 All right, cool. Well, good night. 1748 01:26:06,600 --> 01:26:07,640 We've been with clear presentations. 1749 01:26:07,640 --> 01:26:08,880 That's your spike. Just take it easy. 1750 01:26:09,760 --> 01:26:13,400 Yeah, yeah. Of course. 1751 01:26:13,400 --> 01:26:15,720 That's not where it ends, yeah. So. 1752 01:26:16,400 --> 01:26:18,560 Yeah, man. So pretty much where it ends, 1753 01:26:18,560 --> 01:26:22,600 so, so inevitably, like helicopter crashes, spins and 1754 01:26:22,600 --> 01:26:24,680 spins and spins. You got a really comical little 1755 01:26:24,680 --> 01:26:28,000 bit where the Ethan Hunt's lying back on the remaining bit of the 1756 01:26:28,000 --> 01:26:31,840 train cab, which is stopping and the blades like slowly, slowly 1757 01:26:31,840 --> 01:26:34,080 rest on their final resting place, which is really sharp 1758 01:26:34,680 --> 01:26:36,600 knackered ruler blades putting directly these throat. 1759 01:26:36,600 --> 01:26:38,080 It was pretty cool. That was cool. 1760 01:26:39,280 --> 01:26:41,120 And then we get probably the least believable scene in the 1761 01:26:41,120 --> 01:26:44,240 movie, which is the bit at the very end wrapping it up, where 1762 01:26:44,400 --> 01:26:46,160 Tom Cruise appears to be at the end of a pint. 1763 01:26:46,440 --> 01:26:48,880 Yeah. That was I was really impressed 1764 01:26:48,880 --> 01:26:51,160 at how unbelievable that was. Fact. 1765 01:26:51,160 --> 01:26:54,960 No, he's no, that's just unbelievable that he could have, 1766 01:26:54,960 --> 01:26:59,320 you know, drunk in general. Even when you see him like drink 1767 01:26:59,320 --> 01:27:02,800 it like it's like, you know, that fluid is not touching his 1768 01:27:02,800 --> 01:27:05,240 fucking mouth. I know what I like about it is, 1769 01:27:05,240 --> 01:27:07,560 and I obviously it's impossible to confirm what beer it was. 1770 01:27:07,600 --> 01:27:09,880 It looks a bit like maybe Boddington's or something, which 1771 01:27:09,880 --> 01:27:12,200 is one of those beers that's like a mild in Britain but is 1772 01:27:12,200 --> 01:27:13,960 weirdly popular in America. Yeah. 1773 01:27:14,120 --> 01:27:15,680 Or like London Pride or something like that. 1774 01:27:16,560 --> 01:27:18,160 Yeah. I don't know if this follows. 1775 01:27:18,160 --> 01:27:20,520 Did the fullest supremacy exists in 1996? 1776 01:27:20,520 --> 01:27:21,360 Maybe. Yeah. 1777 01:27:21,360 --> 01:27:24,880 Follows, follows was, still was was a player at that point, I'm 1778 01:27:24,880 --> 01:27:27,640 sure. What I like about this is this 1779 01:27:27,640 --> 01:27:31,120 is culturally around the same moment as, but probably precedes 1780 01:27:31,120 --> 01:27:34,080 the moment of lager. Just like obliterating the beer 1781 01:27:34,080 --> 01:27:36,080 market, yeah. So it's nice seeing them 1782 01:27:36,080 --> 01:27:40,880 drinking like real, you know, Martin Clunes hasn't won that in 1783 01:27:40,880 --> 01:27:43,520 from that sort of men behaving badly with two pints of Colin in 1784 01:27:43,520 --> 01:27:45,440 his hand and just ruined the whole thing. 1785 01:27:45,440 --> 01:27:49,560 Just fucking biffed it. No, yeah, no, it's it is it is a 1786 01:27:49,560 --> 01:27:52,680 good scene and it's nice to see American characters drinking 1787 01:27:52,680 --> 01:27:55,280 that. You you got the warm British 1788 01:27:55,280 --> 01:27:57,880 Beer there, son. Sit my down, man. 1789 01:27:59,360 --> 01:28:01,960 Everybody be cool. It takes all sorts a lot. 1790 01:28:03,040 --> 01:28:06,000 Yeah, it's very cool. Yeah, we have that final bit, so 1791 01:28:06,000 --> 01:28:09,640 I didn't even mention it. So the helicopters exploded by 1792 01:28:10,040 --> 01:28:13,200 the final use of the gum. So Chekhov's cool, cool plastic 1793 01:28:13,200 --> 01:28:17,720 gum is used to do that. Axe is caught up with by 1794 01:28:18,040 --> 01:28:20,960 Kitteridge. Yeah, he's about to threaten. 1795 01:28:20,960 --> 01:28:23,680 And she's like, oh, my lawyers will have a field day with this 1796 01:28:23,960 --> 01:28:26,880 jurisdictional overreach and entrapment. 1797 01:28:26,880 --> 01:28:29,640 And she's like, hang on a minute, Let's let's try and keep 1798 01:28:29,640 --> 01:28:31,640 the lawyers out of this. It's like, I must have something 1799 01:28:31,640 --> 01:28:32,920 you want. And it's like corruption. 1800 01:28:32,920 --> 01:28:35,280 Ha ha. We have the final scene in the 1801 01:28:35,280 --> 01:28:39,360 pub where Luther is kind of like expunged of all his crimes. 1802 01:28:39,360 --> 01:28:41,360 He's a free man. What's he going to do with his 1803 01:28:41,360 --> 01:28:43,000 life? Obviously join the IMF. 1804 01:28:43,920 --> 01:28:46,520 So it's kind of like a, a prototype for like getting the 1805 01:28:46,520 --> 01:28:48,840 choice kind of scene that will happen in the later movies. 1806 01:28:50,000 --> 01:28:55,680 And then final scene is some perfect sequel bait where Tom 1807 01:28:55,680 --> 01:28:57,320 Cruise is on a a British Airways flight. 1808 01:28:57,760 --> 01:29:00,040 I wonder if they were good back in the 90s. 1809 01:29:02,480 --> 01:29:06,840 They aren't now, but I have. But yeah, agreed. 1810 01:29:07,920 --> 01:29:12,000 And then we got like a kind of a, a, a re reprise of the of the 1811 01:29:12,000 --> 01:29:14,720 Jim Phelps introduction sequence. 1812 01:29:15,880 --> 01:29:16,680 What? Attendance. 1813 01:29:16,680 --> 01:29:18,840 What the movie? Would you like to watch this? 1814 01:29:19,240 --> 01:29:21,120 And she's like, he's like, I don't know. 1815 01:29:21,120 --> 01:29:26,000 I was like perhaps the cinema of the Caribbean, Aruba perhaps. 1816 01:29:27,000 --> 01:29:29,360 So that kind of takes us to the end of the movie. 1817 01:29:30,280 --> 01:29:32,760 I only had a couple of things I want to point out before we 1818 01:29:32,760 --> 01:29:39,320 break for categories, which is music by Danny Elfman, mostly. 1819 01:29:39,320 --> 01:29:42,760 OK, the scores. To fucking wild it is. 1820 01:29:42,760 --> 01:29:44,800 It is mostly OK. Like it hits a few, it hits a 1821 01:29:44,800 --> 01:29:47,480 few, like kind of not so perfect bits. 1822 01:29:47,480 --> 01:29:52,000 But I think, I think I commented at the time, it's nice to see a 1823 01:29:52,000 --> 01:29:55,480 film with a fucking score with a real last score by a real last 1824 01:29:55,480 --> 01:29:59,160 composer. Melodic and yeah, so it isn't 1825 01:29:59,160 --> 01:30:01,840 just like a bunch of noises or a load of bad music, yeah. 1826 01:30:02,080 --> 01:30:05,720 Yeah, because that's what yeah, shit composers like me do. 1827 01:30:05,800 --> 01:30:08,280 No, but it became. Like a an easy thing for Action 1828 01:30:08,280 --> 01:30:10,600 Cinema to do is just like, well, we'll just bang a little drums 1829 01:30:10,600 --> 01:30:11,920 on it and nothing else. Well, yeah. 1830 01:30:11,920 --> 01:30:16,800 Yeah, like so just like for these scenes like like lively 1831 01:30:16,800 --> 01:30:19,240 woodwinds and strings interacting with them and stuff 1832 01:30:19,240 --> 01:30:22,400 and it's and it's like a camera and it's and it's real hour. 1833 01:30:22,400 --> 01:30:25,960 It doesn't doesn't need to have that in it, yet it does and. 1834 01:30:27,160 --> 01:30:29,240 I like it. It pays homage, I think, to Lola 1835 01:30:29,240 --> 01:30:31,920 Shifrin's original iconic theme tune. 1836 01:30:32,400 --> 01:30:34,200 Obviously the theme tune's reprised because it has to be. 1837 01:30:34,880 --> 01:30:37,160 But the rest of the school, I mean, kind of is in that similar 1838 01:30:37,160 --> 01:30:39,000 sort of vein. You know, you got the bongos and 1839 01:30:39,000 --> 01:30:40,200 the. Yeah. 1840 01:30:40,240 --> 01:30:40,920 Flutes and all. Kind of. 1841 01:30:40,920 --> 01:30:43,600 Stuff going crazy, yeah. I like that. 1842 01:30:44,040 --> 01:30:45,720 There's something called this where it kind of fell a bit flat 1843 01:30:45,720 --> 01:30:49,320 for me, which is there's a really weird triumphant bit when 1844 01:30:49,320 --> 01:30:51,400 Ethan makes the jump from the back of the train onto the 1845 01:30:51,400 --> 01:30:52,600 helicopter. Yeah, that. 1846 01:30:52,720 --> 01:30:55,480 That wasn't. And it was like that was weirdly 1847 01:30:55,480 --> 01:30:58,240 kind of like, it was like triumphant and very major and 1848 01:30:58,240 --> 01:31:01,160 kind of like, yeah, in your face and well. 1849 01:31:01,160 --> 01:31:02,760 I mean, the scores, Danny Elfman isn't it? 1850 01:31:02,840 --> 01:31:04,640 And I think, yeah. His. 1851 01:31:04,640 --> 01:31:07,400 Wheelhouse is doing things a bit kind of weird and a bit off kill 1852 01:31:07,400 --> 01:31:10,120 and so if you want him so if you want to get and Danny Elfman to 1853 01:31:10,120 --> 01:31:16,720 do something like hero gets like perfectly, you know, so Danny. 1854 01:31:16,720 --> 01:31:19,280 Elfman is obviously very famous for working with Tim Bird and 1855 01:31:19,280 --> 01:31:21,600 shit and it's probably his best work. 1856 01:31:22,040 --> 01:31:26,240 My personal opinion is when he was working on the Batman movies 1857 01:31:26,280 --> 01:31:27,560 Right. If I'm if I'm home to ensure 1858 01:31:27,560 --> 01:31:29,160 that is definitely him. I think it is, but Batman. 1859 01:31:29,160 --> 01:31:31,720 Batman returns the. Simpsons theme tune as well. 1860 01:31:32,760 --> 01:31:36,720 Yeah, yeah. So that was interesting editing 1861 01:31:36,880 --> 01:31:40,880 was the same editor who did the Untouchable, a lot of the same 1862 01:31:40,920 --> 01:31:43,120 cat, the crew that from from the Untouchables that Brent Palmer 1863 01:31:43,120 --> 01:31:45,560 brought with him. So it's Paul Hirsch who did the 1864 01:31:45,560 --> 01:31:48,400 editing. Same same as Untouchables. 1865 01:31:48,640 --> 01:31:53,400 Stephen Burum is is DP also same as untouchables. 1866 01:31:53,560 --> 01:31:55,960 Obviously the big difference is is the producers. 1867 01:31:55,960 --> 01:31:58,760 So obviously Cruz and and Paula Wagner did the did the 1868 01:31:58,760 --> 01:32:03,960 production. I did like the cool extra credit 1869 01:32:03,960 --> 01:32:07,320 for special makeup effects, which is pretty good by Rob 1870 01:32:07,320 --> 01:32:10,520 Botton special makeup effects. Obviously his his background is 1871 01:32:10,520 --> 01:32:13,280 in special effects before that, before he did this movie, his 1872 01:32:13,280 --> 01:32:17,560 kind of big career hits or makeup effects for Rubio cop and 1873 01:32:17,600 --> 01:32:19,360 total recall that explains. A lot. 1874 01:32:20,160 --> 01:32:22,720 And and the thing as well that really. 1875 01:32:22,720 --> 01:32:25,040 Explains a lot actually. Was like the general yeah these 1876 01:32:25,040 --> 01:32:27,960 bringing that yeah holy shit. Yeah, exactly. 1877 01:32:28,680 --> 01:32:31,880 Yeah. So an incredible, incredible 1878 01:32:31,880 --> 01:32:34,040 crew on this movie as well. That's that's all kind of what I 1879 01:32:34,040 --> 01:32:35,840 talk about really. Just just kind of highlight some 1880 01:32:35,840 --> 01:32:38,480 some of the some of the awesome kind of pedigree of the crew. 1881 01:32:38,600 --> 01:32:39,920 Yeah, yeah. No, definitely. 1882 01:32:41,000 --> 01:32:41,720 Cool. Welcome back. 1883 01:32:41,880 --> 01:32:44,040 We're just going to go through the categories now as we always 1884 01:32:44,040 --> 01:32:47,240 do, starting with casting. Kristian Scott Thomas has a very 1885 01:32:47,240 --> 01:32:49,600 small role to start this movie, but she's obviously like a 1886 01:32:49,920 --> 01:32:52,920 tremendous actress, very well known, I think, but worth worth 1887 01:32:52,920 --> 01:32:55,200 highlighting anyway, around this sort of time. 1888 01:32:55,200 --> 01:32:57,960 She's just done. I think her big break might just 1889 01:32:57,960 --> 01:33:01,040 come from 4 Weddings and a funeral couple of years before 1890 01:33:01,040 --> 01:33:02,960 this. So that was pretty cool. 1891 01:33:02,960 --> 01:33:05,800 And then she'd go on to do The English Patient after this I 1892 01:33:05,800 --> 01:33:08,960 think the next year. So that's obviously a big moment 1893 01:33:08,960 --> 01:33:11,160 for her. Of course, now she's she's 1894 01:33:11,160 --> 01:33:15,080 currently in Slow Horses as second desk Diana Tavana at MI 1895 01:33:15,080 --> 01:33:17,720 5. So she's stuck with a spy game, 1896 01:33:18,400 --> 01:33:20,040 but cool. The main one I want to bring up 1897 01:33:20,040 --> 01:33:22,600 is he's easy to miss if you're not looking out for him. 1898 01:33:22,640 --> 01:33:27,120 Dale Dye is the guy who plays Kittridges like #2 like his sort 1899 01:33:27,120 --> 01:33:29,080 of guy he's always bitching off orders to. 1900 01:33:29,480 --> 01:33:32,000 Yeah. And Dale, Dale Die is like a 1901 01:33:32,000 --> 01:33:34,720 great character actor. I mentioned it earlier on, but 1902 01:33:34,720 --> 01:33:36,600 I'll go through his career properly. 1903 01:33:36,600 --> 01:33:40,160 So he is plays Frank Barnes in this movie, but he's, he's 1904 01:33:40,160 --> 01:33:42,920 known. He's in Platoon, he's in Spy 1905 01:33:42,920 --> 01:33:44,520 game. He's also in, it's going to 1906 01:33:44,520 --> 01:33:45,720 scale all the way back to the beginning. 1907 01:33:45,800 --> 01:33:48,800 So some context. He does an absolute tonne of 1908 01:33:48,800 --> 01:33:51,400 military consultancy work. So he's, he's got a special 1909 01:33:51,400 --> 01:33:53,120 thanks and loads of stuff. So. 1910 01:33:53,800 --> 01:33:57,000 And filled us from Mars. Technical advisor Platoon 1911 01:33:57,040 --> 01:34:00,600 Technical advisor, Casualties of war gone on the 4th of July. 1912 01:34:02,080 --> 01:34:04,520 So you can see that's maybe how like Tom Cruise met him and gone 1913 01:34:04,520 --> 01:34:07,880 the job. Jacob's ladder stockade 1914 01:34:07,880 --> 01:34:11,360 dogfight, JFK technical advisor again, last number Higgins, 1915 01:34:11,360 --> 01:34:15,360 technical advisor, Forrest Gump, Natural Born Killers absolute 1916 01:34:15,360 --> 01:34:20,280 turn and then his actual credits as an AXA also just as just as 1917 01:34:20,280 --> 01:34:22,840 many as lose. So again, he's an infantry 1918 01:34:22,840 --> 01:34:24,200 Colonel and born on the 4th of July. 1919 01:34:24,840 --> 01:34:30,080 He's in the fourth war. He's in again, he's JFK like I 1920 01:34:30,080 --> 01:34:32,600 mentioned, under siege, he's in as well. 1921 01:34:33,240 --> 01:34:35,760 He's also in bought a band of brothers. 1922 01:34:36,880 --> 01:34:42,240 He is Colonel Robert F Sync. He's in seven episodes of that. 1923 01:34:42,240 --> 01:34:46,320 So he also come I think he also comes out to visit them in 1924 01:34:46,320 --> 01:34:47,720 during the Battle of the Bulls sequence. 1925 01:34:47,720 --> 01:34:49,160 Do you remember that?

But that one's, that one's one 1972 01:37:11,000 --> 01:37:12,200 of the best of them. Definitely. 1973 01:37:13,080 --> 01:37:17,320 Yeah. And the one about the just just 1974 01:37:17,320 --> 01:37:22,000 just Jim Phelps's cold bit. Will you think about anything 1975 01:37:22,000 --> 01:37:24,600 that was inevitable? No more Cold War, no more 1976 01:37:24,600 --> 01:37:27,560 secrets to keep from yourself and set a new one but yourself? 1977 01:37:27,560 --> 01:37:30,280 Then you wake up 1 morning and find out the president is 1978 01:37:30,280 --> 01:37:31,880 running the country without your permission. 1979 01:37:31,880 --> 01:37:35,080 The son of a bitch, How dare he. Then you realise so far you're 1980 01:37:35,080 --> 01:37:37,800 an obsolete piece of hardware and not worth upgrading. 1981 01:37:37,920 --> 01:37:40,960 You got a lousy marriage and 62 grand a year. 1982 01:37:40,960 --> 01:37:43,800 Counterpoint though, is his marriage that lousy? 1983 01:37:44,200 --> 01:37:48,240 I mean, he's, he's really punching with his wife, you 1984 01:37:48,240 --> 01:37:50,080 know, He's, he's.

Adjusted for inflation as well, 1989 01:38:03,400 --> 01:38:05,480 that's 60 grand a year is probably significantly more now, 1990 01:38:06,040 --> 01:38:07,880 yeah. And and like, you could 1991 01:38:08,040 --> 01:38:11,200 literally just set yourself up doing any kind of like private 1992 01:38:11,200 --> 01:38:14,840 security consultant work, you know, which will be easier and 1993 01:38:14,840 --> 01:38:16,920 lower stakes than IMF stuff as well. 1994 01:38:16,920 --> 01:38:19,560 You know, you could kind of just say chill and like run, run like 1995 01:38:19,560 --> 01:38:21,840 security for like Pricewaterhouse Coopus or 1996 01:38:21,840 --> 01:38:24,440 something for the rest of your career and then and then retire 1997 01:38:24,440 --> 01:38:26,320 with your, you know, suspiciously young wife. 1998 01:38:26,320 --> 01:38:28,640 It's fine.

Come on buddy, I love. 2000 01:38:32,880 --> 01:38:34,240 I I mentioned it earlier, I like. 2001 01:38:34,240 --> 01:38:38,520 I like when even hunts giving Jack shit during the during the 2002 01:38:38,520 --> 01:38:41,400 heist at the beginning, yes. When he's when he's got the he's 2003 01:38:41,400 --> 01:38:44,400 got the big Foghorn Leghorn voice on Go and go like Jack. 2004 01:38:45,000 --> 01:38:48,480 I believe we did have a Jack, an unreliable fellow as I recall, 2005 01:38:48,640 --> 01:38:51,680 constantly behind in his work. I was forced to tie him behind 2006 01:38:51,680 --> 01:38:54,160 one of my best aliens and drag him around my barn for a few 2007 01:38:54,160 --> 01:38:59,240 days because I love I. Was for a few days like and 2008 01:38:59,240 --> 01:39:03,240 quickly pivots from a bit of a lock to the destruction of a 2009 01:39:03,240 --> 01:39:05,720 human. Yeah, yeah, All right. 2010 01:39:05,760 --> 01:39:08,560 I mean it's. A driver for for a few days. 2011 01:39:09,240 --> 01:39:11,480 The body was The body was fed to the pigs. 2012 01:39:11,560 --> 01:39:15,760 Sorry, go on hassle. Lasagna so I'm good any any 2013 01:39:16,160 --> 01:39:18,920 anymore coats you never even Kittridge you've never seen me 2014 01:39:18,920 --> 01:39:20,240 very upset. I really like. 2015 01:39:20,240 --> 01:39:23,360 That my mom was a little confused how the DEA can mistake 2016 01:39:23,360 --> 01:39:26,320 her Uncle Donald for a couple of dope smugglers in the Florida 2017 01:39:26,320 --> 01:39:28,560 case. Because not only is it a quite 2018 01:39:28,560 --> 01:39:32,040 funny line that things about the live out, but also neatly ties 2019 01:39:32,040 --> 01:39:36,240 up how the kind of got the family out of this like, ah, you 2020 01:39:36,240 --> 01:39:38,720 see those this little mistake, you know, and it's like, and 2021 01:39:38,720 --> 01:39:41,400 it's like a neat little sentence that kind of chaos up plot 2022 01:39:41,400 --> 01:39:42,960 holes. And I like that. 2023 01:39:42,960 --> 01:39:45,360 I like that both as a quote, which is funny and well 2024 01:39:45,360 --> 01:39:49,040 delivered, and his writing which which clears plot holes up in a 2025 01:39:49,040 --> 01:39:51,600 really unobtrusive kind of fun way. 2026 01:39:52,520 --> 01:39:55,720 It's a weird bit of plot motivation for Ethan Hunt. 2027 01:39:55,720 --> 01:39:59,720 I don't know if we needed it. Yeah, I think him just being on 2028 01:39:59,720 --> 01:40:02,600 the run because he's assumed guilty and he's a clear his name 2029 01:40:02,600 --> 01:40:06,200 is probably enough We don't need to have because we don't see the 2030 01:40:06,200 --> 01:40:07,840 family apart from in one news report I. 2031 01:40:09,120 --> 01:40:13,920 Want dying slowly? Dying slowly in America, after 2032 01:40:13,920 --> 01:40:16,680 all, can be a very expensive proposition. 2033 01:40:17,600 --> 01:40:20,120 Yeah, get rich. Yeah, that's a, that's a good 2034 01:40:20,160 --> 01:40:23,480 one. Shit cold ass lanes man 2035 01:40:23,480 --> 01:40:28,560 Incredibly cold, poor, relevant. His writing. 2036 01:40:28,560 --> 01:40:31,480 Is this fire cool? Right, needle drops. 2037 01:40:31,480 --> 01:40:33,720 There's only one needle drop for me in this movie. 2038 01:40:33,720 --> 01:40:35,720 I don't know if you spot anymore, it's in the pub at the 2039 01:40:35,720 --> 01:40:37,400 very end. Dreams by you have. 2040 01:40:37,400 --> 01:40:40,640 Cranberries, yeah, yes. Awesome. 2041 01:40:40,760 --> 01:40:43,200 Quite. A few that a boxed reviews 2042 01:40:43,200 --> 01:40:46,400 reference that song and and that's to you, Evergreen. 2043 01:40:46,840 --> 01:40:48,920 Absolutely, absolutely fantastic. 2044 01:40:48,920 --> 01:40:51,000 Total tune. Absolutely Bob. 2045 01:40:51,000 --> 01:40:53,200 And that's not just because the Miller Little and me talking 2046 01:40:53,400 --> 01:40:55,440 trivia. OK, I've been peppering a little 2047 01:40:55,440 --> 01:40:59,480 bit of trivia throughout the movie, but there's there's some 2048 01:40:59,480 --> 01:41:04,120 good ones here from IM Duba. So not only is this the only 2049 01:41:04,120 --> 01:41:06,600 film in the franchise where Ethan Hunt doesn't fire a gun, 2050 01:41:07,240 --> 01:41:10,320 it is the only one not to have any shootouts or gunfights at 2051 01:41:10,320 --> 01:41:13,040 all. Right, that's a very. 2052 01:41:13,040 --> 01:41:14,440 Good point. I mean, yeah. 2053 01:41:15,400 --> 01:41:18,440 Yeah, all the all the combat is hand to hand and there's not 2054 01:41:18,440 --> 01:41:20,960 much of it, actually. Tom Cruise deferred his 20 2055 01:41:20,960 --> 01:41:23,680 million fee for a percentage of the box office takings instead 2056 01:41:24,000 --> 01:41:26,960 and ended up ended up earning 70 million. 2057 01:41:27,000 --> 01:41:29,160 So yeah, incredibly wise, indeed. 2058 01:41:29,280 --> 01:41:31,120 This is weird. And racially charged. 2059 01:41:31,120 --> 01:41:35,640 The producers, IE Tom Cruise and Paula Wagner, cast V Rhames as 2060 01:41:35,640 --> 01:41:38,080 Luther because they felt he was the opposite of what a hacker 2061 01:41:38,080 --> 01:41:40,800 normally looks like. I suppose if you were to say 2062 01:41:40,800 --> 01:41:42,600 what does a hacker normally look like if you're looking at 2063 01:41:42,600 --> 01:41:44,360 cinema, you'd have to say Matthew Lillard. 2064 01:41:45,080 --> 01:41:47,520 Yeah. Or what's his name from Element 2065 01:41:47,600 --> 01:41:48,720 Elementary. Yeah. 2066 01:41:49,320 --> 01:41:52,040 Jesus tip my tongue and shallow grave John Lee Miller. 2067 01:41:53,200 --> 01:42:00,280 Yeah, when did? Hackers come out 95 so so so I 2068 01:42:00,280 --> 01:42:07,880 guess I mean I am pretty sure that yeah, there were the there 2069 01:42:07,880 --> 01:42:12,080 were there were non white people in the team in hackers. 2070 01:42:12,880 --> 01:42:14,720 I love that also. If you're going to look at that 2071 01:42:14,720 --> 01:42:17,680 right, another move that came out 995 that had hackers in was 2072 01:42:17,720 --> 01:42:19,600 the net. Yeah, sorry. 2073 01:42:19,760 --> 01:42:22,480 Sandra Bullock, I suppose. I suppose Ving Rhames is the 2074 01:42:22,480 --> 01:42:30,280 opposite of Sandra Bullock. What does that even mean? 2075 01:42:30,280 --> 01:42:31,920 How do we even? How? 2076 01:42:32,000 --> 01:42:36,440 How do we even come to these, to these, to these like decisions? 2077 01:42:36,840 --> 01:42:39,480 The platonic opposite of her is Ving. 2078 01:42:39,640 --> 01:42:42,240 How I'm actually wearing this is weird. 2079 01:42:43,320 --> 01:42:46,480 I'm actually wearing AT shirt that celebrates the film 2080 01:42:46,480 --> 01:42:50,840 Practical Magic and Nicole Kidman. 2081 01:42:51,200 --> 01:42:53,440 It's incredible. I've got Charling down. 2082 01:42:53,440 --> 01:42:59,920 We yeah, we still fiction. Yeah, yeah, I've just hold up 2083 01:42:59,920 --> 01:43:04,560 some trivia of my own. I've just found a transcription 2084 01:43:04,560 --> 01:43:09,360 of the tailing shorthand from the cafeteria scene, it reads. 2085 01:43:09,360 --> 01:43:12,600 Remember to telephone Mr. Smith to clear all security files. 2086 01:43:12,600 --> 01:43:16,840 Combinations lock in slash 4 filing cabinet make lunch 2087 01:43:16,840 --> 01:43:20,240 arrangements with William Pugh for next Tuesday check through 2088 01:43:20,240 --> 01:43:24,120 dot dot dot make dot dot dot for next you see someone says yeah 2089 01:43:24,120 --> 01:43:26,520 well done from using real shorthand Pittman's instead of 2090 01:43:26,520 --> 01:43:29,560 some props department scribble this looked like T Lane to me 2091 01:43:30,000 --> 01:43:33,360 this is this really looked like T Lane to me while you're while 2092 01:43:33,360 --> 01:43:34,360 you're. Talking about that the our 2093 01:43:35,040 --> 01:43:36,480 company didn't touch on this and casting. 2094 01:43:36,480 --> 01:43:39,800 I didn't realise this, but Emilio Estevez isn't accredited 2095 01:43:40,440 --> 01:43:41,480 in this film. Yeah. 2096 01:43:42,000 --> 01:43:44,320 So that whole thing is 1 big uncredited cameo. 2097 01:43:44,320 --> 01:43:46,440 Yeah. And I don't have we talked about 2098 01:43:46,440 --> 01:43:49,440 this already before, but Tom Cruise does lots of cameos in 2099 01:43:49,440 --> 01:43:51,160 the Midwestern films. Yeah. 2100 01:43:51,320 --> 01:43:53,520 I'm sure you mentioned it at some point, maybe, maybe not on 2101 01:43:53,520 --> 01:43:57,200 the part, but maybe in like our our group chat possibly. 2102 01:43:57,200 --> 01:44:00,480 Yeah, so there's a sequence in Young Guns where Tom Cruise is 2103 01:44:00,480 --> 01:44:02,960 in the background in Young Guns during like a shootout scene and 2104 01:44:02,960 --> 01:44:05,680 stuff for like a while. This is quite cool. 2105 01:44:05,680 --> 01:44:09,720 According to Emilio Estevez, the scene of the IMF team gathered 2106 01:44:09,720 --> 01:44:12,960 around discussing the mission that opens the movie was added 2107 01:44:12,960 --> 01:44:14,480 at the suggestion of George Lucas. 2108 01:44:14,480 --> 01:44:17,160 So I said it was different from the screenplay out of the 2109 01:44:17,160 --> 01:44:19,160 suggestion of George Lucas, who said the movie needed a 2110 01:44:19,200 --> 01:44:21,920 spaghetti scene, a scene where they are all sitting around 2111 01:44:21,920 --> 01:44:24,440 discussing what's next. The cast was brought back during 2112 01:44:24,440 --> 01:44:26,520 reshoots to film the scene Right. 2113 01:44:27,360 --> 01:44:29,320 And I agree. With that, I think they do need 2114 01:44:29,320 --> 01:44:31,080 a little bit at the beginning where there's no tension on, so 2115 01:44:31,080 --> 01:44:32,880 you understand who the people are, the dynamics. 2116 01:44:33,440 --> 01:44:35,440 Use PALS before they're straight into work mode. 2117 01:44:35,800 --> 01:44:36,680 Yeah. Mix. 2118 01:44:36,680 --> 01:44:39,000 It makes you more vested when most of them get horribly 2119 01:44:39,000 --> 01:44:41,920 mercked in the next like 15 minutes too, so you know. 2120 01:44:42,600 --> 01:44:44,120 Exactly. Yeah, totally. 2121 01:44:44,240 --> 01:44:46,560 Jim Phelps is the only character from the original TV series in 2122 01:44:46,560 --> 01:44:48,360 here in this movie. Apparently there's quite a 2123 01:44:48,360 --> 01:44:51,320 blowback from fans of the TV show when they kind of took, 2124 01:44:51,320 --> 01:44:53,560 like, the beloved main character of the TV series and turn them 2125 01:44:53,560 --> 01:44:57,080 into like, a bad guy who gets who gets mercked at the time. 2126 01:44:57,080 --> 01:44:58,520 I cannot kind of understand that. 2127 01:44:58,560 --> 01:45:02,680 Quite a ballsy move by yeah, let's face it, Tom Cruise to 2128 01:45:02,680 --> 01:45:04,280 make that happen. Let's do. 2129 01:45:04,280 --> 01:45:07,320 The oversaw oversaw of them in industrial complex haven't there 2130 01:45:07,320 --> 01:45:10,680 in a while, but this one and this one really fits our we're 2131 01:45:11,280 --> 01:45:12,600 bringing it back from the dead guys. 2132 01:45:12,600 --> 01:45:15,280 They're bringing it back the most egregious oversaw of the 2133 01:45:15,280 --> 01:45:18,840 military industrial complex with this film that really does put a 2134 01:45:18,840 --> 01:45:20,520 large amount of Mustang on the MIC. 2135 01:45:20,720 --> 01:45:21,760 Oh yeah. Big time. 2136 01:45:23,120 --> 01:45:27,360 This is like, it's probably more it's a fantasy movie, isn't it? 2137 01:45:27,400 --> 01:45:29,360 It's even more egregious than like enemy of the state. 2138 01:45:29,520 --> 01:45:31,400 But any of this mistake was meant to make you believe it was 2139 01:45:31,400 --> 01:45:33,760 kind of vaguely realistic. But this is like, this is 2140 01:45:33,760 --> 01:45:37,760 ridiculous fidelity of the cameras, this tiny little pin 2141 01:45:37,760 --> 01:45:40,440 button, all cameras, they've got the interfaces and all the 2142 01:45:40,440 --> 01:45:43,440 tracking software they've got for the little tracking devices. 2143 01:45:43,440 --> 01:45:45,840 It's like it's. Wild because the chewing. 2144 01:45:45,840 --> 01:45:48,400 Gum. Yeah, the gum the. 2145 01:45:48,560 --> 01:45:53,000 The only gum my government gives me is to to do the opposite of 2146 01:45:53,000 --> 01:45:58,000 Constipation after a field week. The net exclusive fantasy of 2147 01:45:58,000 --> 01:46:01,480 that gum, technically. Probably counts as an explosive. 2148 01:46:02,360 --> 01:46:04,480 An interesting thing, but this film and it's a kind of 2149 01:46:04,680 --> 01:46:08,120 relationship with technology is that it both acknowledges the 2150 01:46:08,120 --> 01:46:12,760 fact that things like use Nets and Netscape Navigator because 2151 01:46:12,760 --> 01:46:14,760 you do see Netscape Navigate being used exist. 2152 01:46:14,840 --> 01:46:19,120 But also you've got it's a drum I've beaten earlier tonight. 2153 01:46:19,120 --> 01:46:22,840 But these these glasses that have miniaturised cameras in 2154 01:46:22,840 --> 01:46:25,960 them so small that they're completely unobtrusive and and 2155 01:46:25,960 --> 01:46:29,640 can't be seen at all in the slightest and have these picture 2156 01:46:29,640 --> 01:46:32,080 perfect images. I mean, you, you would struggle 2157 01:46:32,080 --> 01:46:36,280 to do that like today, like like like right now, like tiny little 2158 01:46:36,280 --> 01:46:40,680 fuck ass 1990s wireframe glasses, essentially incredibly 2159 01:46:40,680 --> 01:46:45,600 dad coded with just like there's just an invisible camera that 2160 01:46:45,600 --> 01:46:48,560 gets perfect quality shots. That's definitely one of the 2161 01:46:48,960 --> 01:46:55,480 biggest, biggest of our cells. Yeah, I'm not quite sure how the 2162 01:46:55,480 --> 01:46:59,080 polarised lenses of the sunglasses worked either, Swami. 2163 01:46:59,560 --> 01:47:02,000 With. The spray agent that showed up 2164 01:47:02,000 --> 01:47:03,800 on them, yeah, yeah. So it's like, what? 2165 01:47:03,920 --> 01:47:05,600 I can't tell. Yeah, go on. 2166 01:47:06,280 --> 01:47:08,080 I was going to say. Yes, it's some kind of like, is 2167 01:47:08,080 --> 01:47:09,760 it some sort of radiation I'll expect? 2168 01:47:09,760 --> 01:47:13,800 From it arrow something it's like because I'm I know it's 2169 01:47:13,800 --> 01:47:16,680 that kind of just predator vision, isn't it really? 2170 01:47:16,680 --> 01:47:22,520 But it's like but yeah, like, I mean the idea of like the kind 2171 01:47:22,520 --> 01:47:24,960 of perfume kind of chemical spray Mark and someone's really 2172 01:47:24,960 --> 01:47:28,040 cool, obviously, but they're like, you've got these like just 2173 01:47:28,040 --> 01:47:32,160 really normal ass kind of glasses that just show show this 2174 01:47:32,160 --> 01:47:34,920 like non visible height spectrum, I guess. 2175 01:47:34,920 --> 01:47:41,360 Or, or or consider stop trying to assess this film. 2176 01:47:41,360 --> 01:47:43,600 Rory, shut up, shut up. Go for Hollywood. 2177 01:47:44,240 --> 01:47:48,120 But it's like, yeah, the vaults. That they have for specifically 2178 01:47:48,120 --> 01:47:51,440 for the one terminal that that still stores the knock list on, 2179 01:47:51,720 --> 01:47:55,960 Yeah, that's over the top, yeah. It's obviously. 2180 01:47:56,000 --> 01:47:57,720 And it's great for like, the heist of the movie. 2181 01:47:57,720 --> 01:47:59,640 And I get it. And like, and you know, we have 2182 01:47:59,640 --> 01:48:04,040 to have a bit of context here. Pardon me like has to exist in 2183 01:48:04,040 --> 01:48:07,680 order for a lot of the film will work, but it's yeah, it's also a 2184 01:48:08,200 --> 01:48:11,520 big role oversell sort of a. Donkey dunk I have. 2185 01:48:11,520 --> 01:48:14,000 Two of these rooms and I use them to store my cheese. 2186 01:48:14,680 --> 01:48:17,920 The. I think the biggest 1, and I 2187 01:48:17,920 --> 01:48:20,600 hate to say it, but it's the masks, man, isn't it? 2188 01:48:20,760 --> 01:48:24,080 The masks are too good. Yeah, but that's like that's 2189 01:48:24,080 --> 01:48:25,480 that's a classic Mission Impossible thing. 2190 01:48:25,480 --> 01:48:27,920 We're going to see it through like nearly all the other 2191 01:48:27,920 --> 01:48:28,560 movies. Yeah. 2192 01:48:28,880 --> 01:48:32,160 So, yeah, no good good Calgary, though, because yeah, there's a 2193 01:48:32,160 --> 01:48:34,440 big, big oversell. But you know, it's like it's 2194 01:48:34,440 --> 01:48:36,800 like oversell of the military just so complex in Lord of the 2195 01:48:36,800 --> 01:48:40,600 Rings, isn't it? Like you might as well be like 2196 01:48:40,880 --> 01:48:44,000 grand who's got who's got the money for a grand right as. 2197 01:48:44,000 --> 01:48:49,240 Saruman's head ORC clearly noted we do not have the Smith output 2198 01:48:49,280 --> 01:48:51,920 to generate the roots. To generate. 2199 01:48:51,920 --> 01:48:55,800 Armour and handheld weaponry. So how are we going to 2200 01:48:55,800 --> 01:49:02,880 manufacture such a several multi million complex projects such as 2201 01:49:03,000 --> 01:49:07,440 grand think? I think the introduction of the 2202 01:49:07,440 --> 01:49:10,320 Grand Strike Group has overstretched the capacity of 2203 01:49:10,320 --> 01:49:12,960 the Royal Navy to the breaking point and I, I. 2204 01:49:12,960 --> 01:49:18,040 I think, I think I, I, I think Sauron's procurement of a grand 2205 01:49:18,040 --> 01:49:22,720 is a great what's the word look for metaphor for military 2206 01:49:22,720 --> 01:49:25,120 procurement, Like, right, OK, what do we need? 2207 01:49:25,320 --> 01:49:28,880 We need a battering ram. Yes, but but but. 2208 01:49:28,880 --> 01:49:31,360 I think it should be in the shape of a giant wolf that 2209 01:49:31,360 --> 01:49:33,880 breathes fire. It's clearly a. 2210 01:49:33,880 --> 01:49:37,240 Symptom of something larger. After the breaching of Helms 2211 01:49:37,240 --> 01:49:40,440 Deep, we have seen discussion after discussion whether the 2212 01:49:40,440 --> 01:49:44,200 battering ram has become obsolete with the introduction 2213 01:49:44,200 --> 01:49:49,120 of explosive powder. Yet even the Dark Lord himself 2214 01:49:49,440 --> 01:49:52,520 clearly thinks that the battering ram still has value. 2215 01:49:52,520 --> 01:49:54,440 Problem is right. Is that a lot of a lot of 2216 01:49:54,440 --> 01:49:57,880 Mordor's economy is based on the battering ram building business. 2217 01:49:57,880 --> 01:50:00,520 So and the and the and the problem is not bigger battering 2218 01:50:00,520 --> 01:50:02,280 Rams or smaller battering Rams, it's mass. 2219 01:50:02,280 --> 01:50:05,240 We need more battering Rams, OK? And that's the only way to we're 2220 01:50:05,240 --> 01:50:07,160 going to be able to stop all these refugees coming into 2221 01:50:07,160 --> 01:50:11,760 Mordor, OK? So, and that's maybe you, maybe 2222 01:50:11,760 --> 01:50:15,320 if we take this, this is just another authoritarian regime 2223 01:50:15,320 --> 01:50:18,440 desperately trying to create jobs. 2224 01:50:19,520 --> 01:50:21,400 I think that's what it is, yeah. Yeah. 2225 01:50:21,400 --> 01:50:25,320 There's obviously not enough jobs going for the native there. 2226 01:50:25,400 --> 01:50:29,440 Apparently is a vast need for for large amount of jobs that 2227 01:50:29,440 --> 01:50:33,760 are unskilled labour. And clearly, swinging a giant 2228 01:50:33,760 --> 01:50:36,280 battering ram is not an academic job. 2229 01:50:37,080 --> 01:50:40,040 You know what? And and do you know what's that 2230 01:50:40,280 --> 01:50:41,960 that swinging that that big growing power. 2231 01:50:41,960 --> 01:50:43,640 And it wasn't just the giant trolls guys. 2232 01:50:43,640 --> 01:50:45,880 It was some of the ordinary orcs because they had to prove that 2233 01:50:45,880 --> 01:50:51,000 the troll guys went like a DI here higher you. 2234 01:50:51,360 --> 01:50:54,600 Got involved for that one like the orc union got involved and 2235 01:50:54,600 --> 01:50:57,720 they're like listen, but think we'll see what you're doing 2236 01:50:57,720 --> 01:50:58,760 here. So we're going to, you know, 2237 01:50:58,760 --> 01:51:00,960 going to make sure that, you know, you can get, you're taking 2238 01:51:00,960 --> 01:51:04,960 quarters on of our guys as well, you know, but it's like, I mean, 2239 01:51:04,960 --> 01:51:06,280 yeah, you totally write like the idea. 2240 01:51:06,280 --> 01:51:08,440 It's like they've got like the whole like flame throwing aspect 2241 01:51:08,440 --> 01:51:11,960 of Bron means like, you know, the like the because of because, 2242 01:51:11,960 --> 01:51:14,520 because like I said, it's it's that's a battering round plus 2243 01:51:14,520 --> 01:51:17,000 shit burns, right. And it's like the because 2244 01:51:17,000 --> 01:51:20,520 they've got like just bring in as many contractors on it as the 2245 01:51:20,520 --> 01:51:22,680 can. I mean, the design process took 2246 01:51:22,680 --> 01:51:24,240 ages. They brought in loads different 2247 01:51:24,240 --> 01:51:27,280 like teams, various shamans, Wizards and freaks. 2248 01:51:27,480 --> 01:51:28,920 There's coming to odd things on it. 2249 01:51:28,920 --> 01:51:32,200 You know, there was like 6 Yeah, like when there was there was 2250 01:51:32,200 --> 01:51:34,440 there was I was out of the time. There was a whole or six months 2251 01:51:34,600 --> 01:51:37,360 when they were fighting over the size of various ridges and like 2252 01:51:37,360 --> 01:51:38,800 nodules and knobs on it and stuff. 2253 01:51:38,800 --> 01:51:41,960 So, you know, but like I said, it's all about just maintaining 2254 01:51:41,960 --> 01:51:45,320 the economy at this point. Do you want all these orcs and 2255 01:51:45,320 --> 01:51:47,680 and whatever unemployed? No, because at this point 2256 01:51:47,680 --> 01:51:50,040 they're going to start listening to that fucking Hobbit music, 2257 01:51:50,400 --> 01:51:51,920 right? They're going to start smoking 2258 01:51:51,920 --> 01:51:54,400 the Hobbit's pipe weed. It's going to warp the mains and 2259 01:51:54,400 --> 01:51:57,960 all of a sudden great Ban Orc orcs rise up against you and 2260 01:51:57,960 --> 01:52:00,240 you're hanging from a lamp post. Nobody wants to. 2261 01:52:00,240 --> 01:52:03,200 Nobody wants to fight anymore. But he was looking ahead. 2262 01:52:03,200 --> 01:52:06,440 He's like, like once, once the White City is gone, what am I 2263 01:52:06,440 --> 01:52:08,320 going to have my guys do? Yeah, but. 2264 01:52:08,400 --> 01:52:10,920 Once again, this is an ongoing problem. 2265 01:52:11,160 --> 01:52:14,240 Clearly the Dark Lord does not even want to pay for orcs, 2266 01:52:14,240 --> 01:52:17,440 because why else what do you have needs to involve men from 2267 01:52:17,440 --> 01:52:20,120 the east. Apparently he has to get the 2268 01:52:20,160 --> 01:52:23,680 perundrum involved because they're just cheaper unpaid 2269 01:52:23,680 --> 01:52:25,440 foreign labour. It's like than that it's. 2270 01:52:25,640 --> 01:52:29,000 It's pirates as well, actually. Honest to go to pirates, you 2271 01:52:29,000 --> 01:52:31,520 know, unscrupulous. Stealing. 2272 01:52:31,800 --> 01:52:36,920 Stealing mortar Orcs jobs. Shocking. 2273 01:52:37,160 --> 01:52:39,440 Shocking the state of a man take. 2274 01:52:39,440 --> 01:52:43,320 Mortal Grid Again, would this movie have been better with 2275 01:52:43,480 --> 01:52:46,360 Doctor Jack Ryan, Doctor Richard Kimble, or President James 2276 01:52:46,360 --> 01:52:48,000 Marshall? Well, I think the answer is 2277 01:52:48,000 --> 01:52:50,320 pretty obvious. It's Doctor Jack Ryan. 2278 01:52:51,040 --> 01:52:53,200 Who else is going to face off against Kittridge again? 2279 01:52:53,240 --> 01:52:54,880 Or in this case, Rissa? Yeah. 2280 01:52:54,880 --> 01:52:56,760 And actually Jack Ryan. Absolutely. 2281 01:52:56,760 --> 01:52:58,200 Fair one. Yeah, I can. 2282 01:52:58,200 --> 01:53:02,320 Hear Harrison Ford's going.

But he's fantastic. 2370 01:57:09,600 --> 01:57:11,640 Just absolutely just comes in bosses the scenes walks out 2371 01:57:11,640 --> 01:57:12,720 again. Brilliant. 2372 01:57:13,560 --> 01:57:15,600 I love the guy. All right, the question that 2373 01:57:15,600 --> 01:57:18,800 we've all been waiting to ask is this movie Prue or Auntie? 2374 01:57:18,800 --> 01:57:22,760 The Central Agency? I'm finished. 2375 01:57:22,760 --> 01:57:25,640 This isn't the end. Samuel Jackson. 2376 01:57:26,200 --> 01:57:27,200 Oh, you. Want to talk? 2377 01:57:27,200 --> 01:57:29,720 Commander U.S. Navy, the Lieutenant. 2378 01:57:29,720 --> 01:57:32,880 Commander Samuel Jackson, U.S. Navy work in this movie. 2379 01:57:32,880 --> 01:57:36,280 What do you think we could? We possibly replace cartridge 2380 01:57:36,280 --> 01:57:38,600 with him. I can see him telling telling a 2381 01:57:38,600 --> 01:57:42,240 hunt to go to hell. I'll tell you what you would 2382 01:57:42,800 --> 01:57:46,880 have to have if you were going to have Samuel Jackson do a heel 2383 01:57:46,880 --> 01:57:50,600 face turn in this movie. He would demand he had a scene 2384 01:57:51,520 --> 01:57:57,960 with Hunt at the end of the movie where they like, resolved 2385 01:57:57,960 --> 01:58:00,840 their differences and like, shook hands so that Samuel 2386 01:58:00,840 --> 01:58:03,040 Jackson got to walk away a hero at the end of the movie. 2387 01:58:03,400 --> 01:58:05,560 That's not that's not a slide against Samuel Jackson. 2388 01:58:05,720 --> 01:58:08,320 That's just the kind of role I think you'd want to have in the 2389 01:58:08,320 --> 01:58:10,240 movie. Yeah, well, it would make it a 2390 01:58:10,240 --> 01:58:12,240 very different film, but it wouldn't be a deal breaker. 2391 01:58:13,200 --> 01:58:15,440 It wouldn't be a film room now, I could definitely say at work, 2392 01:58:15,440 --> 01:58:18,280 and it'll be a different film. They could fit him in easier 2393 01:58:18,280 --> 01:58:20,040 into the sequels, I think. Yeah. 2394 01:58:20,240 --> 01:58:22,800 Well, as Kitteridge still or is it or like a different rule? 2395 01:58:23,560 --> 01:58:25,120 Different rule I think. Different rule, I think. 2396 01:58:25,120 --> 01:58:27,840 Yeah, yeah. That's a very good question. 2397 01:58:27,840 --> 01:58:28,960 That's a really. Fucking good one. 2398 01:58:28,960 --> 01:58:30,880 Christ, that's absolutely. Eyes. 2399 01:58:30,880 --> 01:58:32,280 Yeah, I didn't thought about that. 2400 01:58:33,120 --> 01:58:34,400 Yeah. Where else could he be? 2401 01:58:36,000 --> 01:58:38,240 Because at this time was this 1996? 2402 01:58:38,240 --> 01:58:39,640 So this is like post Pulp Fiction. 2403 01:58:40,240 --> 01:58:41,600 Yeah. So he's. 2404 01:58:43,680 --> 01:58:44,560 Yeah. So what? 2405 01:58:44,560 --> 01:58:49,480 We're near deep blue sea. OK, I could have been. 2406 01:58:49,480 --> 01:58:51,400 Hey, I'll tell you what he could have been Phelps. 2407 01:58:51,880 --> 01:58:53,280 He could have been. Phelps, that would have been a. 2408 01:58:53,280 --> 01:58:54,640 Slightly different vibe, but yeah. 2409 01:58:54,640 --> 01:58:57,080 I'll tell you what though, it would have been a bit awkward 2410 01:58:57,080 --> 01:59:00,640 when Tom Cruise pulled off the Phelps mask because I was like, 2411 01:59:00,960 --> 01:59:07,560 it was like, it was like, shit.

No. 2415 01:59:12,040 --> 01:59:14,280 That's probably not right. No, we can't do that. 2416 01:59:14,280 --> 01:59:15,440 Yeah. What if he does? 2417 01:59:15,440 --> 01:59:18,840 Luther well and losing. Rhames well, exchange Marcellus 2418 01:59:18,840 --> 01:59:22,760 Wallace for whoever the Timur Jackson's name wasn't. 2419 01:59:22,760 --> 01:59:25,600 Perfection does my. Laptop look like a bitch. 2420 01:59:26,320 --> 01:59:28,880 Instead of Job 314, it's Ezekiel. 2421 01:59:29,880 --> 01:59:32,040 He could. I mean, he could play Kriga. 2422 01:59:32,120 --> 01:59:33,520 He could play Kriga. Yeah, that'd be cool. 2423 01:59:33,520 --> 01:59:35,640 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

It's anti. 2463 02:01:37,080 --> 02:01:39,760 I think they were all in a way anti because they pitched the 2464 02:01:39,760 --> 02:01:43,600 IMF at odds with the CIA. And they're constantly, I don't 2465 02:01:43,600 --> 02:01:45,640 know how many more of these movies you've seen, Roy, but 2466 02:01:45,640 --> 02:01:48,440 like they are, there's always like congressional hearings 2467 02:01:48,960 --> 02:01:51,800 where they're having to defend themselves to like an oversight 2468 02:01:51,800 --> 02:01:53,720 committee for their funding and everything. 2469 02:01:54,320 --> 02:01:56,160 A bit like how they do at the end, like all the Bourne movies. 2470 02:01:56,560 --> 02:02:00,280 Yeah, and there's a really like there's a brilliant like running 2471 02:02:00,280 --> 02:02:04,280 gag of like of Alec Baldwin is always there like justifying 2472 02:02:04,280 --> 02:02:06,000 like. So I think one of them he starts 2473 02:02:06,000 --> 02:02:07,880 by saying like the IMF is needs to be cut away. 2474 02:02:07,880 --> 02:02:09,840 It's ridiculous. It's like in the in the age of 2475 02:02:10,080 --> 02:02:13,400 modern intelligence gathering in and singing etcetera, we don't 2476 02:02:13,400 --> 02:02:16,720 need human sources with like these ridiculous gadgets and 2477 02:02:16,720 --> 02:02:17,920 stuff to be doing crazy emissions. 2478 02:02:17,920 --> 02:02:20,320 And then at the end of the movie he's like, and that's why I 2479 02:02:20,320 --> 02:02:24,040 think the investor of the IMF is critical to this safety of this 2480 02:02:24,040 --> 02:02:25,640 nation, why we need it. And it's like you've just done 2481 02:02:25,640 --> 02:02:27,800 like a 180 from the yeah, it's brilliant. 2482 02:02:28,280 --> 02:02:32,440 Anyway, yeah, it's anti CIA which makes it seven to three 2483 02:02:32,440 --> 02:02:34,240 against I think 7:00 to 3:00. Against. 2484 02:02:35,720 --> 02:02:37,920 Cool, right? Ding Chavez Award for missed 2485 02:02:37,920 --> 02:02:40,120 opportunity of this movie.

Hey Royal, so final thing before 2521 02:04:31,840 --> 02:04:34,320 we wrap this bad boy up, have you got any notes from the 2522 02:04:34,320 --> 02:04:36,000 peanut gallery? It's taking my. 2523 02:04:36,000 --> 02:04:39,360 Glasses off so that the IMF can't see me look at the phone. 2524 02:04:39,480 --> 02:04:43,600 So there's some excellent reviews of this film on our 2525 02:04:43,920 --> 02:04:46,400 friend of the podcast. Not quite sponsored, but it 2526 02:04:46,400 --> 02:04:48,800 makes my life a lot easier finding funny things. 2527 02:04:48,800 --> 02:04:52,760 That is a letter boxed. Some great ones and lots of 2528 02:04:52,760 --> 02:04:54,600 great ones and ones don't make too much sense. 2529 02:04:54,600 --> 02:04:56,520 And some ones do make a fair amount of sense. 2530 02:04:56,560 --> 02:04:57,640 Four stars. No Sir. 2531 02:04:57,680 --> 02:04:59,000 Three stars. Fake news. 2532 02:05:00,240 --> 02:05:03,040 This was like not good in my opinion. 2533 02:05:03,120 --> 02:05:05,760 It's I made justice like action movies though brackets. 2534 02:05:05,760 --> 02:05:08,520 But it was entertaining and explodes in the high campy vibes 2535 02:05:08,520 --> 02:05:10,920 of that helicopter scene. There were single snippets of 2536 02:05:10,920 --> 02:05:13,400 this that were hilarious and ways I don't know were intended 2537 02:05:13,400 --> 02:05:16,280 to be like what Ethan is in disguise, but it's not a mask at 2538 02:05:16,280 --> 02:05:18,320 all. And then he'll whip his face off 2539 02:05:18,320 --> 02:05:20,760 like magic and it's him. And I like the part where the 2540 02:05:20,760 --> 02:05:24,040 government were descending on a hotel room or whatever it was to 2541 02:05:24,040 --> 02:05:27,360 capture Max and Ethan and there was a little old lady vacuuming 2542 02:05:27,360 --> 02:05:30,040 outside and they threatened her with a gun and she just kept 2543 02:05:30,040 --> 02:05:32,960 vacuuming. I will not be watching war 2544 02:05:32,960 --> 02:05:35,520 Mission Impossible movies unless I made to. 2545 02:05:36,080 --> 02:05:39,240 Also, I hope Tom Cruise dies for real. 2546 02:05:40,600 --> 02:05:43,960 Damn right. Yeah, 2 1/2 stars. 2547 02:05:43,960 --> 02:05:46,840 Sometimes I felt like I was watching a bunch of people speak 2548 02:05:46,880 --> 02:05:49,600 gibberish in tones that insinuated they must be talking 2549 02:05:49,600 --> 02:05:52,200 about important stuff like an hour and a half straight. 2550 02:05:52,400 --> 02:05:57,040 But also I had fun. 4 1/2 stars by Ophelia. 2551 02:05:58,200 --> 02:06:01,320 I pitched this by going Tom Cruise is so hot in this he 2552 02:06:01,320 --> 02:06:04,240 looks like a child. Which wasn't. 2553 02:06:04,240 --> 02:06:06,040 The greatest choice of words in my life. 2554 02:06:06,040 --> 02:06:08,840 But we did end up watching it and enjoying it, so I'm counting 2555 02:06:08,840 --> 02:06:09,840 it. Yes, yes. 2556 02:06:09,840 --> 02:06:12,840 Officer, this letter. You right there. 2557 02:06:13,600 --> 02:06:16,280 Absolutely. I can't believe I finally 2558 02:06:16,280 --> 02:06:18,920 watched this. Midterms have eaten me the fuck 2559 02:06:18,920 --> 02:06:21,000 alive. Jesus, it's been a week since I 2560 02:06:21,000 --> 02:06:23,160 watched a film.

I love how 90s it is. 2565 02:06:35,680 --> 02:06:37,560 I'm not bombarded with background music. 2566 02:06:37,560 --> 02:06:40,880 The silence, slowness, dullness, and daily life sounds as opposed 2567 02:06:40,880 --> 02:06:43,040 to a music score in a music score. 2568 02:06:43,040 --> 02:06:44,880 Insert one right after the other. 2569 02:06:45,120 --> 02:06:46,840 They don't make movies like this anymore. 2570 02:06:46,840 --> 02:06:50,040 It's jarring watching this after the Ministry of Ungentlemanly 2571 02:06:50,040 --> 02:06:55,560 Warfare and someone just puts 4 1/2 stars. 2572 02:06:55,560 --> 02:06:59,240 Love Tom Cruise, Devastating.

Suspenseful, conniving and small 2579 02:07:18,560 --> 02:07:20,960 not saving the world in the best way. 2580 02:07:21,040 --> 02:07:23,440 Everything is a little off kilt are the acting is a bit more 2581 02:07:23,440 --> 02:07:26,040 unrestricted. People scream things not just 2582 02:07:26,040 --> 02:07:29,000 drop cliche lines. These weird close-ups from below 2583 02:07:29,000 --> 02:07:31,160 when Hunt and Kitteridge are reacting to things. 2584 02:07:31,160 --> 02:07:34,640 It just fucking works. Side note, I never noticed my 2585 02:07:34,680 --> 02:07:36,760 3,000,000 watches. There's a sequence where Ethan 2586 02:07:36,760 --> 02:07:39,600 spends the whole night sending little emails and seems more 2587 02:07:39,800 --> 02:07:43,440 spent from doing this than any other physical task, and I don't 2588 02:07:43,440 --> 02:07:44,840 know how it hasn't become a meme. 2589 02:07:45,000 --> 02:07:47,280 Cool on it me.

My wife left me, she took the 2593 02:07:54,880 --> 02:07:56,760 kids. I couldn't give up Brian de 2594 02:07:56,760 --> 02:08:00,600 Palma split diopter shots.

I cannot imagine anything better 2600 02:08:18,480 --> 02:08:22,920 on God's green earth than that. 3 1/2 stars. 2601 02:08:22,920 --> 02:08:25,040 Tom Cruise has so many good films. 2602 02:08:25,040 --> 02:08:28,040 It's a shame he's such a weirdo, says Haley. 2603 02:08:28,920 --> 02:08:32,240 And I think that's a lot of people's opinion on On Time. 2604 02:08:32,240 --> 02:08:35,840 You see the other time you say not Tom Clancy, but in fact Tom 2605 02:08:35,840 --> 02:08:43,000 Cruise, There you go, top cat.
