1
00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:18,560
Of. 
Power. 

2
00:00:18,560 --> 00:00:21,560
Hello and welcome back to Clear 
and Present Dudes, the podcast 

3
00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:24,680
that reminds you Humpty Dumpty 
sat on the wall. 

4
00:00:24,680 --> 00:00:28,440
I am Mike Zumbar. 
I'm joined by Roy James O'Toole 

5
00:00:28,440 --> 00:00:31,200
and Sonya Bioxan, good evening. 
Hello. 

6
00:00:31,200 --> 00:00:34,520
And tonight our mission, should 
we choose to accept it, is to 

7
00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:36,920
pop out and get some more ice 
for our engagement party. 

8
00:00:37,160 --> 00:00:41,560
And while we're out, discuss the
2006 franchise saving Mission 

9
00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:45,640
Impossible free episode should 
be reaching you on the 23rd of 

10
00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:47,960
March 26th. 
It might be sooner for technical

11
00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:51,720
reasons, but very happy birthday
to Michelle Monaghan and Kerry 

12
00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:54,360
Russell notwithstanding. 
OK, cool. 

13
00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:55,960
First of all, do a little call 
action, please. 

14
00:00:55,960 --> 00:00:58,240
I can subscribe to the podcast 
and do that on YouTube. 

15
00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:00,920
Do that Apple, do that on 
Spotify or wherever podcasts. 

16
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:02,600
Cool. 
Thanks very much, guys. 

17
00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:04,920
Right. 
Mission Impossible three. 

18
00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:07,880
I said it was a franchise saving
movie. 

19
00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:11,520
What do you think? 
Well, I for one have just 

20
00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:14,360
thought that I'm very glad that 
this movie has spared me from 

21
00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:18,560
one of the questions I've come 
to be most irritated by on this 

22
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:21,080
podcast, which is how would this
have gone down in Germany? 

23
00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:22,600
Because the film's already 
answered that. 

24
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:26,440
It does. 
It does good on in Berlin or an 

25
00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:28,040
area somewhere near Berlin I 
guess. 

26
00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:33,600
Yeah, cool, real tool. 
Franchise saving is right, while

27
00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:38,200
while I don't have an axe to 
grind against Mission Impossible

28
00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:41,400
2, it's it's definitely one of 
the films of of all time. 

29
00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:44,480
I couldn't have seen an entire 
this. 

30
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:47,320
This film got the got the 
franchise from what I can see, 

31
00:01:47,320 --> 00:01:49,360
because I haven't seen everyone,
but from what I can see, it did 

32
00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:51,720
get it back on track. 
It got it back towards the kind 

33
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:55,960
of thriller end of things rather
than the absolutely ape shit 

34
00:01:55,960 --> 00:02:01,280
John Woo gunfu kind of thing. 
Great film, first time I've seen

35
00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:04,120
it. 
Pleasantly surprised because I 

36
00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:06,960
did read some reviews that 
showed it to be quite 

37
00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:09,039
polarising. 
Like there were a lot of people 

38
00:02:09,039 --> 00:02:13,520
who really hated JJ Abrams 
mystery box kind of storytelling

39
00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:16,240
primarily and stuff like that. 
But I really enjoyed it. 

40
00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:22,360
It was it was emotionally 
heavier hitting than I expected.

41
00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:26,120
Yeah, absolutely. 
I'll tell you what, why don't we

42
00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:31,000
grab our Kodak disposable 
cameras and take a look at the 

43
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:33,640
trailer? 
Who are you? 

44
00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:40,280
You have a wife, girlfriend. 
Whoever she is, I'm going to 

45
00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:45,400
find her and then I'm going to 
kill you right in front of her. 

46
00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:23,720
Welcome back brother. 
Mission Impossible 3 or M Colon 

47
00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:31,480
I Colon I I I is a 2006 American
action spy film directed by JJ 

48
00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:35,160
Abrams in his feature film 
directorial debut Pushed and 

49
00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:38,920
starring Tom Cruise from a 
screenplay by Abrams and a 

50
00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:41,880
writing team of Alex Kurtzman 
and Roberto Orti. 

51
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:45,160
It is a standalone sequel to 
Mission Impossible 1996 and 

52
00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:48,520
Mission Impossible 2 from 2000 
and the third instalment in the 

53
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:50,480
Mission Impossible film series, 
which for the rest of this 

54
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:52,760
podcast will refer to simply as 
Mission. 

55
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:55,520
It also stars Philip Seymour 
Hoffman, Ving Rhames, Billy 

56
00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:58,360
Crudup, Michelle Monaghan, 
Jonathan Reese Myers. 

57
00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:00,400
Remember him from Gorman Ghast. 
Yeah, Keri. 

58
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:04,080
Keri Russell, Maggie Q. 
Laurence Fishburne is here as 

59
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:06,640
well. 
And yeah, cool this movie as in 

60
00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:09,200
let's put it nicely, development
hell for a while. 

61
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:14,120
Think I think they all watched 
Mission Impossible 2 John Woo of

62
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:17,959
face off fame and kind of went 
we need to have a bit of a reset

63
00:04:17,959 --> 00:04:19,680
here. 
Just to give you a better 

64
00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:24,000
background on the history David 
Fincher was initially slated to 

65
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:27,200
direct. 
David Fincher hasn't got a good 

66
00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:30,160
track record with with attacking
the third of a series. 

67
00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:34,920
Obviously his his first film, of
course, was Alien 3, which was 

68
00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:37,040
pretty much critically and 
commercially panned, wasn't it? 

69
00:04:39,280 --> 00:04:42,000
He dropped out for creative 
differences. 

70
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:44,560
I would agree that's finding its
feet. 

71
00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:51,240
I mean each film of Mission 
series so far has been kind of 

72
00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:53,280
wildly different. 
I mean the first one, you know, 

73
00:04:53,280 --> 00:04:55,560
like it's it's an auto LED 
piece. 

74
00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:58,720
As I said when we talked about 
it, it's got so much like DNA 

75
00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:00,400
from like the 1970s and checked 
it in. 

76
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:02,560
It would like it's got like the 
kind of three days, the Condor 

77
00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:06,320
vibe as well as that. 
The next one, it's like what 

78
00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:14,840
1999 or 2000, but it came out MI
2 when EV when everyone on the 

79
00:05:14,840 --> 00:05:17,360
face of the earth has turned up 
to 11. 

80
00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:20,480
Everyone's wearing those cool 
black shirts with the red flames

81
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:22,320
up on them. 
They've got like the backwards 

82
00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:24,680
red baseball caps. 
They're all listening Limp 

83
00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:27,400
Bizkit. 
And ironically, they're they're 

84
00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:29,040
wearing gigantic baggy jeans and
shit. 

85
00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:31,040
The world's a different time, 
but totally different time. 

86
00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:35,200
And that again, 2006 when when 
Mission 3 comes out, the world 

87
00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:37,400
has once again completely 
changed this these epochal 

88
00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:40,600
spaces essentially almost like a
generational DAP between these 

89
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:41,520
films. 
And when you look at the 

90
00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:47,680
contexts around them and what's 
good in in like the film world, 

91
00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:49,920
what's going to make money in 
films, what's going to get 

92
00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:52,760
people in the cinemas and what's
going to kind of transmit to 

93
00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:57,600
people. 
I think that I think that it was

94
00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:02,000
a series that like kind of it 
hadn't found its feet yet 

95
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:05,280
because I didn't know what I 
wanted to be or what was going 

96
00:06:05,280 --> 00:06:08,480
to be at this point. 
Yeah, I think you're right, man.

97
00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:12,480
I think I think it was very much
faltering on its on its babies 

98
00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:15,000
sort of steps. 
Also, there's quite a long time 

99
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:17,880
period between these films. 
So six years is quite a long 

100
00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:21,800
time in in in cinema between a 
sequel if you're trying to 

101
00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,040
maintain a currency and a 
franchise, unless that franchise

102
00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:26,800
has an extremely strong set 
identity. 

103
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:30,200
And this doesn't really all it's
hard is basically you slap the 

104
00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:32,320
theme sheet onto it and and Tom 
Cruise is there. 

105
00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:34,680
That's mission and anything else
goes. 

106
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:37,840
Pretty much if I was going to 
turn my mission head off and 

107
00:06:37,840 --> 00:06:41,160
just become like a film critic 
for a bit, this is probably 

108
00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:43,520
maybe one of the better ones of 
like how it hangs together. 

109
00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:45,960
Maybe the best one in terms of 
how it hangs together as a movie

110
00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:49,640
because it's not trying to do 
some kind of like big tentpole 

111
00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:51,080
stunt. 
But the rest of the movie is 

112
00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:53,680
sculpted around. 
This is this is a movie where 

113
00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:56,400
the story kind of came first. 
So once the Fincher dropped out,

114
00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:59,600
Drew Carnahan was slated to do 
it for a long time. 

115
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:01,720
And I think you will probably 
want to talk about Joe Carnahan 

116
00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:05,240
maybe a bit later on when we get
into like trivia and stuff. 

117
00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:09,200
There was a, there was a lot of 
casting stuff that went on in 

118
00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:10,920
the background there. 
Maybe we'll talk about that. 

119
00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:15,160
In casting people, you know, 
friends became enemies and 

120
00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:17,120
enemies became friends people. 
People joined the projects. 

121
00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:19,640
People left the project. 
It was stricken by numerous 

122
00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:21,200
delays. 
Lots of people dropped out. 

123
00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:24,600
Lots of changes from what they 
initially desired the movie to 

124
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:27,080
be. 
Long story short, Tom Cruise one

125
00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:29,960
night at the end of his rope 
maybe is scanning the channels 

126
00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:33,000
and at 2:00 AM somehow he 
stumbles upon the TV series 

127
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:35,920
Alias and his mind, his mind is 
blown. 

128
00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:39,960
Maybe he's just. 
Like me, he's just like me. 

129
00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:43,600
For real, for real, for real. 
He sees it. 

130
00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:47,760
He sees he sees Jennifer Garner 
doing her like her one appointed

131
00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:49,880
stunt per episode. 
And it's like, this is amazing. 

132
00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:53,240
This is this is peak television.
Who made this? 

133
00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:55,800
JJ Abrams. 
So he, he and he and Paula 

134
00:07:55,800 --> 00:08:00,080
Wagner basically invite him to 
his house and he arrives and 

135
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:01,040
they pretty much offer him the 
job. 

136
00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:02,800
Do you want to direct Mission 
Impossible? 

137
00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:03,840
You've never dropped to a movie 
before? 

138
00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:07,280
Do you want to direct a tent 
pool blockbuster? 

139
00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:11,880
Summer blockbuster? 
For me, Tom Cruise, I go wild, 

140
00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:14,720
but he does it. 
And they they delay the movie 

141
00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:18,120
for another couple of years 
because JJ has got alias and 

142
00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:19,880
lost commitments to, to to 
uphold. 

143
00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:23,200
But then once that's done, boom,
off to the off to the races and 

144
00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:25,320
they're making a movie. 
Yeah. 

145
00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:29,600
So JJ Abrams has got a few 
people he tends to work with and

146
00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:31,480
he's carried that forward. 
So some of that's in the casts 

147
00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:32,799
we'll talk about when we get to 
the cast. 

148
00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:38,039
Another one is Michael Giacchino
is the composer in this movie. 

149
00:08:38,039 --> 00:08:42,000
I don't know how well you guys 
know Michael Giacchino off as a 

150
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:44,320
video game composer. 
Or I should say, one of his 

151
00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:45,840
early big bits of work was Medal
of Honour. 

152
00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:51,440
And then he kind of forged a 
career doing a lot of TV work. 

153
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:53,840
So we did like Lost with JJ 
Abrams. 

154
00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:55,440
He did some brilliant music on 
that. 

155
00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:58,480
And then he kind of got famous 
for doing, he's done most of the

156
00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:02,720
Pixar movies, right? 
And then latterly he's done with

157
00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:05,880
his Rogue One. 
So he was the first composer of 

158
00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:08,880
a Star Wars feature film that 
wasn't John Williams? 

159
00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:11,560
Yeah. 
So big shoes to fill there and I

160
00:09:11,560 --> 00:09:13,400
think he did a really good job. 
There's a particular piece of 

161
00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:15,800
music on that soundtrack calls 
Your Father Would Be Proud, 

162
00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:18,720
which is phenomenal. 
Yeah, really good. 

163
00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:22,600
More than more than Stan Sooto. 
Lastly, he did the soundtrack 

164
00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:25,240
for The Batman as well with 
Robert Pattinson. 

165
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:28,360
So really cool. 
And then really lately he did 

166
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:32,000
well a couple of years ago now 
that Marvel one shot Werewolf by

167
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:34,280
Night. 
He directed that and did the 

168
00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:35,840
music for it, which is really 
cool. 

169
00:09:36,560 --> 00:09:37,920
Cool. 
So the other thing about Michael

170
00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:41,200
Giacchino, he's really famous 
for putting puns in the names of

171
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:43,800
the tracks on his soundtracks. 
So I'm just going to read you a 

172
00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:45,640
couple from from the Batman. 
Here we go. 

173
00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:47,560
So I'm really the Batman 
soundtrack we've got here what 

174
00:09:47,560 --> 00:09:50,040
we got. 
We've got escaped crusader good 

175
00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:53,320
and we've got highway to the 
anger zone. 

176
00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:59,400
We've got a meow and you and 
everyone we know or you a Kenzie

177
00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:01,240
or a can't see what else we got 
here. 

178
00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:04,000
This is so bad. 
And then finally, all's well 

179
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:05,720
that ends. 
Farewell. 

180
00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:07,960
Great. 
And then finally, a little 

181
00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:10,080
nipper tease. 
Michael Giacchino has a son, 

182
00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:13,880
Nick Giacchino, who is also a 
composer now, and his funny old 

183
00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:18,120
thing working on the spin off of
The Batman, the Penguin, and has

184
00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:22,400
also done a spin off of the Star
Wars movie skeleton crew as 

185
00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:24,320
well. 
So that's, well, cancer from 

186
00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:25,880
Michael Giacchino. 
Yeah, Sonia, go ahead. 

187
00:10:26,560 --> 00:10:29,080
I've got another little tidbit 
adding to this. 

188
00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:33,120
This isn't the only JJ Abrams 
Michael Giacchini crossover I've

189
00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:35,480
seen. 
The other one that comes to my 

190
00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:41,240
mind is the alternate timeline 
Star Trek miniseries, which 

191
00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:43,960
explains. 
I mean, that is mostly JJ Abrams

192
00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:48,600
things I think, I guess, but it 
would explain the tremendous 

193
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:51,520
amount of lens flare this film 
is giving us. 

194
00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:56,040
Yeah chasing was famous I think 
I don't know if he's calmed down

195
00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:59,080
since but a lot of lens flare 
lens flare in this lens for 

196
00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:02,960
insane as a lens flare in the 
Star Trek movies Super 8 big 

197
00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:06,520
lens flare yeah loves a lens 
flare and then I I've only 

198
00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:09,800
watched did he do Rise of 
Skywalker as well the last of 

199
00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:12,520
the. 
Yes, because he said, didn't he?

200
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:15,040
He did. 
He did The Force Awakens and 

201
00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:17,040
then Ryan. 
Johnson. 

202
00:11:17,560 --> 00:11:20,560
For the last. 
The Last Jedi and then The Rise 

203
00:11:20,560 --> 00:11:22,280
of Skywalker. 
But I've only watched that once 

204
00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:24,880
in the cinema with you, Rory. 
Yeah, in 2019. 

205
00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:27,400
And I haven't seen it since 
because I hated it. 

206
00:11:27,680 --> 00:11:30,280
But. 
But I seem to remember there'd 

207
00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:31,760
been quite a lot of lens flares 
doing that too. 

208
00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:36,320
Insane amounts of lens flare. 
Yeah, Unreal. 

209
00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:39,160
I was thinking today maybe I 
should reassess that and watch 

210
00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:41,560
it again, but I think I might 
just get mad again. 

211
00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:43,800
It's just a man. 
You put 50P in his. 

212
00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:47,720
Fucking hell, I would have. 
I would have of the sequels it 

213
00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:49,520
is by far away the fucking 
worst. 

214
00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:53,160
Not don't count anybody says it 
is so fucking bad and I know it.

215
00:11:54,560 --> 00:11:56,960
Fucks sake man. 
Somehow Palpatine returned. 

216
00:11:57,560 --> 00:12:00,720
Yeah, yeah, it's terrible that 
the chewy fake cow. 

217
00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:03,760
I liked the bit where she goes. 
I mean, it's not good, but it's 

218
00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:07,240
funny that she went to like, 
Intergalactic Burning Man. 

219
00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:09,640
I like that bit. 
The bit where she heals a worm 

220
00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:11,520
with the Force. 
What the fuck, man? 

221
00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:14,480
The bullshit bit at the end 
where she's like some old, 

222
00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:16,560
random old woman in the middle 
of the desert asks her what her 

223
00:12:16,560 --> 00:12:19,760
surname is so she can say so she
can look at a Force ghost and go

224
00:12:20,560 --> 00:12:23,840
Skywalker. 
OK, fucking all right, whatever.

225
00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:26,840
Something better if she like 
looked if, if if she just like 

226
00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:29,680
looked like right down the 
camera and went my name Jeff, 

227
00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:32,400
that would be actually something
that would fucking laugh about 

228
00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:35,760
down the line instead of cringe 
instead of cringe instead of 

229
00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:39,280
die. 
Right, so we need to. 

230
00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:41,720
Podcast to go cyber bully days 
riddling and. 

231
00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:43,960
No, leave Disney really alone. 
She's. 

232
00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:47,520
She's I, I feel bad. 
I was like, oh man, she didn't 

233
00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:49,040
do anything. 
That wasn't her fault. 

234
00:12:49,680 --> 00:12:52,240
Yeah, she's she's a splendid, 
perfect flower. 

235
00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:55,240
Leave her alone. 
But do come. 

236
00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:56,960
I don't know who the fuck to 
blame for this. 

237
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:03,840
I mean, it felt poor and it 
probably comes together with the

238
00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:08,640
Star Wars fandom probably being 
one of the most toxic online 

239
00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:11,640
communities around. 
Yeah, if you are listening to 

240
00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:13,760
this and you are one of the 
people who kicked off really, 

241
00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:17,080
really hard about The Last Jedi,
well then fuck you because 

242
00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:22,840
you'll why Palpatine came back, 
Right, Right. 

243
00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:23,880
That's all we're going to say 
about that. 

244
00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:25,040
Actually. 
I mean, I was thinking about it 

245
00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:26,520
earlier today. 
Maybe maybe because they killed 

246
00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:28,720
Snoke is why Paltine came back 
and they shouldn't have killed 

247
00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:30,120
Snoke. 
But that's like the one fair 

248
00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:32,120
criticism against The Last Jedi.
Like maybe you shouldn't kill 

249
00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:34,920
the big bad in movie two or 
three anyway. 

250
00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:36,240
OK, right. 
OK, fuck. 

251
00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:39,560
So I normally read the Wikipedia
summary. 

252
00:13:39,560 --> 00:13:41,800
The Wikipedia summary for this 
neglects to mention the cold 

253
00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:43,160
open. 
So fade in. 

254
00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:47,200
The first image we see is that 
of a man, extremely tight on his

255
00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:49,880
brutalised face, breathing 
heavy, bruises fresh. 

256
00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:53,440
The wounds, the grime and sweat 
speak of an exhausting disorient

257
00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:55,880
and tortured journey. 
These are weak Mama Spaghetti. 

258
00:13:56,120 --> 00:14:02,400
We're looking at the Huns, 
wildly alert, his eyes trained 

259
00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:05,560
off camera, he looks at all 
ones, terrified, blind with 

260
00:14:05,560 --> 00:14:08,120
rage, heartbroken. 
Then, finally, a voice. 

261
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:10,480
There's an explosive charge on 
your head. 

262
00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:13,120
Sound familiar? 
The man speaking to Ethan is an 

263
00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:16,080
imposing 37 year old sprog, A 
cold eyes. 

264
00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:19,680
He stands, doesn't feel away, 
pulling a pistol from a shoulder

265
00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:21,000
holster. 
He is Owen. 

266
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:23,040
Davian. 
He cocks the gun, standing 

267
00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:25,520
behind him as a second man. 
We'll simply call him Bronway, 

268
00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:28,320
bandage on his nose and we will 
forget about him and barely see 

269
00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:30,800
him again. 
Davian, the rabbit's foot, where

270
00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:32,600
is it? 
Ethan, we now realise, is bound 

271
00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:35,800
to a bolted down chair, a 
barber's chair, a beat. 

272
00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:39,160
I gave it to you, Ethan. 
Where's the rabbit's foot? 

273
00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:40,600
What are you saying? 
That that's not it? 

274
00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:42,360
What I gave you that that's not 
the rabbit's foot. 

275
00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:44,440
I'm going to count to 10. 
You tell me what the rabbit's 

276
00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:47,880
foot is or she dies. 
Ethan's eyes flick back to where

277
00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:50,160
they were before, and we Dolly 
to reveal that there's a fourth 

278
00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:53,520
person there, 30 years old, 
bound to a chair, a length of 

279
00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:55,960
duct tape plastered tightly 
across her mouth. 

280
00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:58,600
Under normal circumstances, 
you'd consider her confident, 

281
00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:01,120
intelligent, athletic and kind, 
a natural beauty. 

282
00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:02,960
These clearly, are not normal 
times. 

283
00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:06,680
Her name is Julia, and Davian 
holds the gun to her head, blind

284
00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:09,680
with fear. 
But not right now. 

285
00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:13,080
She's sweating, she's busted, 
just crying. 

286
00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:15,840
She's choked, crying and. 
Throwing. 

287
00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:19,920
Up, just come to shop or not 
throwing up on the verge of 

288
00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:21,680
madness. 
Ethan says with love and 

289
00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:22,960
strength. 
Jules, honey, it's going to be 

290
00:15:22,960 --> 00:15:24,240
OK. 
It's going to be OK to 

291
00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:26,080
understand. 
Holy shit, the clock has 

292
00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:28,200
started. 
Julian squeals quietly, muffled 

293
00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:30,800
from behind the tape. 
He begins relatively calmly. 

294
00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:32,800
Listen to me, I got exactly what
you asked for. 

295
00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:34,880
Did you want something else? 
There was a misunderstanding. 

296
00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:37,280
I will fix it for you. 
I can get whatever you want too.

297
00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:38,640
Hey man, and I'm just talking to
you. 

298
00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:40,520
Put the gun down. 
It's out of the rabbit's foot. 

299
00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:42,480
Did you want something else? 
Just listen to you talk man. 

300
00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:45,560
We can talk like gentlemen. 3 
Ethan suddenly struggles like 

301
00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:47,840
man to extricate himself from 
his bones, blah blah blah blah 

302
00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:49,880
blah. 
So we have this account up to 10

303
00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:57,600
where a gun is fired, bang. 
And then we start into the 

304
00:15:57,600 --> 00:16:00,480
Mission Impossible music. 
And this movie doesn't do what 

305
00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:02,480
some of the ones do, which is so
don't. 

306
00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:04,680
I just didn't clock it. 
It doesn't do the thing where it

307
00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:07,400
flash forwards loads to lose. 
The stunts are happening in the 

308
00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:08,160
movie. 
Is it or not? 

309
00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:10,440
It doesn't I don't think it does
no. 

310
00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:12,520
Of course we're all wondering 
who the fuck is that one? 

311
00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:16,400
Because that's not Tando in 
Newton, who was his his 

312
00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:17,560
girlfriend at the end of the 
last one. 

313
00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:19,400
So he's he's got himself a 
girlfriend now. 

314
00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:23,960
Another thing I like about this,
which is really cool, is that as

315
00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:27,240
you see on his batters smashed 
up face, he's got a tiny little 

316
00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:30,280
bit of blood dripping down 1 
nostril, which if you pick that 

317
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:32,720
up now and then you kind of 
notice it later on when they're 

318
00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:35,160
talking about Keri Russell. 
And then you kind of piece 

319
00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:37,120
together what's happened to him 
before it gets said. 

320
00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:38,360
I like that. 
I like when they give you a 

321
00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:39,920
little clue. 
And then obviously we see 

322
00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:42,600
Phillip Seymour Hoffman as the 
mysterious, we don't know his 

323
00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:44,480
name is yet, the mysterious 
gunman. 

324
00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:47,200
What did you think you what was 
your first impression of 

325
00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:49,680
Phillips? 
Sonia, have you seen this film 

326
00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:52,720
before? 
Yes, Actually, for once, I think

327
00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:55,440
I've seen all parts of a 
franchise we're talking about. 

328
00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:59,080
Wow. 
Thrilling Times is Rory. 

329
00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:02,880
Hasn't seen it and you have. 
That's going to be first. 

330
00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:05,240
I want a medal. 
Yeah, you can get a bell. 

331
00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:08,839
Yeah, yeah. 3 bars as well. 
What was what was your all 

332
00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:11,400
right? 
So who had who had seen the film

333
00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:12,440
before? 
Has everyone seen the film 

334
00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:14,480
before? 
I've not, this is my first time.

335
00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:17,240
Oh, really? 
We go right, Roy, What was your 

336
00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:18,400
first impression of Phillip 
Seymour? 

337
00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:20,720
Often. 
He's just incredibly sinister. 

338
00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:26,119
Like there's this, there's this 
measured delivery behind the way

339
00:17:26,119 --> 00:17:28,600
he speaks as general on screen 
presence. 

340
00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:31,640
It doesn't feel like your 
typical screech and kick it off 

341
00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:34,720
going a shit like the last slash
action move. 

342
00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:36,960
You guess more like action 
action moving nemesis. 

343
00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:41,960
He's he. 
He feels like disconcertingly 

344
00:17:41,960 --> 00:17:46,160
realistic and believable, very 
measured, very pissed off, but 

345
00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:49,720
also like it's it's a believable
kind of crazy, if you see what I

346
00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:51,600
mean. 
The kind of the brakes he puts 

347
00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:54,600
on his performance changes from 
someone who's screaming at you 

348
00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:57,960
on a screen to someone who you 
could actually imagine being in 

349
00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:00,000
a room. 
If you're intimidating you in in

350
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:02,440
such a fashion, that's actually 
held baby. 

351
00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:06,760
Yeah, so Philippine often is 
what was obviously gone far too 

352
00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:11,600
soon was one of those incredible
actors who unlike so some actors

353
00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:13,840
get like typecast and they and 
they do a certain role really 

354
00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:15,560
well and that's what they always
end up doing, right. 

355
00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:18,920
Philip Seymour Hoffman could 
turn his hands to to anything. 

356
00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:20,960
He could. 
He could be big and comedic. 

357
00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:24,040
He could be in like weird and 
sinister. 

358
00:18:24,120 --> 00:18:27,320
He could be like honestly, like 
off unhinged sinister. 

359
00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:32,680
You could be like an avuncular, 
you know, approachable older 

360
00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:34,120
guy. 
Hey, he was great. 

361
00:18:34,120 --> 00:18:37,520
Everything I remember the first 
time I kind of clocked him was 

362
00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:42,320
probably in the central woman 
from 1992 with opportunity plays

363
00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:44,280
like Charlie Sims, as an 
indicate. 

364
00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:45,760
Chris O'Donnell plays. 
Yeah. 

365
00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:47,840
He plays like his classmate. 
He's like the really, he's the 

366
00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:50,200
one who like is trying to get 
the cover up from and stuff. 

367
00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:51,520
He's the he's the bully, 
basically. 

368
00:18:52,120 --> 00:18:55,440
Yeah, it's called Shtar, you 
idiot, Doug Gastard. 

369
00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:59,240
He's a fucking asshole that but 
he's yeah, hateful. 

370
00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:01,840
Oh, the towns are Mr Ripley. 
He's wonderful in that as well. 

371
00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:04,760
Very different character. 
Yeah, great. 

372
00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:06,320
So yeah, he's great. 
Wonderful. 

373
00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:08,800
Just want to show a little 
tribute to Philip Seymour often 

374
00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:11,640
there, but we'll talk. 
We'll we'll we'll re encounter 

375
00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:14,400
him as the movie goes on, 
especially there's an amazing 

376
00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:16,080
bit of a vibe again we're going 
to have to talk about. 

377
00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:20,000
Right. 
Anyway, movie starts when we get

378
00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:22,000
a bit of a bit of a change of 
pace for mission. 

379
00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:25,720
IMF agent Ethan Hunt is retired 
from field work and has settled 

380
00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:29,920
down with his fiance, nurse 
Julia Mees, who was unaware of 

381
00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:32,520
his job training recruits. 
He believes that he that she 

382
00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:35,960
believes that he works for the 
transport agency or something. 

383
00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:37,600
Yeah, and the Department of 
Transport. 

384
00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:38,800
That's it. 
Yeah. 

385
00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:41,520
Yeah, it's a. 
Fucking really stupid cover for 

386
00:19:41,520 --> 00:19:45,200
someone who's involved with like
a top secret like intelligence 

387
00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:49,040
agency that does deniable 
kinetic operations worldwide. 

388
00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:52,240
Even even though he's retired 
from them, he's still quite part

389
00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:53,280
of them I think. 
Why? 

390
00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:57,880
Why can't he just be like a a 
private security contractor or 

391
00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:00,520
something? 
Why couldn't he just be like a 

392
00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:02,080
consultancy? 
Why can't he just pretend to be 

393
00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:03,960
a part of a consultancy that 
does that, deals with defence 

394
00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:05,760
contracts, and then he can all 
reasonably? 

395
00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:08,640
All there's all there's tonnes 
of other kind of agencies he 

396
00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:12,520
could work for which would still
give him the kind of peaceful 

397
00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:14,960
guy who just cares about like 
infrastructure. 

398
00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:19,400
I think he could have worked for
USAID because at this point from

399
00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:23,880
hadn't closed and gutted it. 
It could have worked for fucking

400
00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:28,200
UNICEF or something, you know? 
And I mean, like, I get the like

401
00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:32,280
they've got as cover as US like 
our State Department, but like, 

402
00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:34,800
yeah, for the USCID, you'd work 
for that kind of thing, but. 

403
00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:36,160
They're including my office or 
something? 

404
00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:38,760
Yeah, yeah. 
I mean, but they've got them 

405
00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:42,280
working for the Department of 
Transport, which is, it seems 

406
00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:44,320
like a disaster waiting to 
happen. 

407
00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:47,800
It seems like your cover is 
going to get blown eventually, 

408
00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:51,000
right? 
I'd say, oh, man, why you? 

409
00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:53,840
Why you, why you're so sad? 
Or just a few of my buddies at 

410
00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:56,480
work got like massive, got in a 
gunfight and then like, the US 

411
00:20:56,480 --> 00:21:02,160
government disavowed directions.
But hold on, was, was, was, was 

412
00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:04,720
this the same thing as a train 
being delayed last week? 

413
00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:09,520
I was really sad. 
About the train. 

414
00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:12,680
Yeah. 
Sick of these potholes? 

415
00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:15,320
So we meet, yeah. 
So we, so we meet them at the. 

416
00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:17,000
It's an engagement party they're
having, isn't it? 

417
00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:19,640
And loads of loads of people he 
doesn't know are there and loads

418
00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:21,440
of people he's very vaguely 
knows. 

419
00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:23,280
So he's meeting a lot of people 
for the first time. 

420
00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:24,920
So he's he's giving his cover a 
workout. 

421
00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:29,400
There's a couple of things that 
that kind of he kind of tips his

422
00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:31,960
high a little bit by accident. 
So there's a bit where Julie 

423
00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:33,920
Julia, played by Michelle 
Monaghan, is having a 

424
00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:35,280
conversation with a couple of 
her friends. 

425
00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:36,440
One of them is Iles from 
Rizzoli. 

426
00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:41,320
And Iles, by the way, Yeah, 
you're struck Mcbriffy's and. 

427
00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:45,760
Todd from NCIS as well. 
Yeah, right, Rod, Hot Rod for K 

428
00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:46,760
Todd. 
Hot Rod for K Todd. 

429
00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:50,320
And yeah, so she's she's talking
to those two. 

430
00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:53,240
And this is a funny little bit 
of trivia. 

431
00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:58,200
So when they when Tom Cruise was
filming The Last Samurai, some 

432
00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:00,240
of that stuff was filmed in New 
Zealand. 

433
00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:03,080
And one of the locations was 
this plague Lake Wanica. 

434
00:22:03,120 --> 00:22:08,080
And that is the reason why he 
and Julia in this film met in in

435
00:22:08,080 --> 00:22:10,000
Lake Monaca doing some kind of 
like a war sports. 

436
00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:14,320
So yeah, he's he's he overhears 
them as she's trying to remember

437
00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:16,600
the name of the place. 
And then he isn't over here. 

438
00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:17,920
I mean, he lips reads, which 
comes. 

439
00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:20,440
Yeah, which comes back later. 
But it's a good bit of 

440
00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:24,800
screenplay, foundational work. 
And then. 

441
00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:26,520
Yeah. 
So he we learned he can lip 

442
00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:29,280
read. 
And then then we see him have 

443
00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:30,760
like a few conversations with 
some fun people. 

444
00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:34,560
Fucking Aaron Paul. 
Yeah. 

445
00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:38,640
Isn't this movie? 
Todd Chavez jump scare. 

446
00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:41,880
Todd Chavez, Bojack Horseman 
mentioned again. 

447
00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:46,520
Jack mentioned relentlessly. 
I have to say that what when, 

448
00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:49,160
when you look at that kind of 
thriller code thriller maxing 

449
00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:53,480
activities, Todd from Bojack 
actually pulls off some severe 

450
00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:56,280
fucking moves that like not even
some of the best thriller 

451
00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:58,720
protagonists could have done. 
And he does them accidentally. 

452
00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:02,320
That one episode when he ends up
fucking managing to join the 

453
00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:06,000
Latin Kings and the Aryan 
Brotherhood in the same episode 

454
00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:09,080
when he's incarcerated. 
You know, the episode when he 

455
00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:11,800
accidentally fucking 
impersonates the leader of a 

456
00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:16,760
Eastern European dictatorship. 
It's all very. 

457
00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:18,440
It's all very Ethan Hood coded, 
actually. 

458
00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:22,120
It actually is. 
I like when he writes a rock 

459
00:23:22,120 --> 00:23:27,080
opera as well. 
Yes, it sounds like that last, 

460
00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:31,360
like the last song for a place 
that is rich in loam. 

461
00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:33,480
He writes it on. 
Like a little casual. 

462
00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:36,160
Like a little casual, like toy 
organ. 

463
00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:38,000
Fantastic. 
Beautiful stuff. 

464
00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:42,880
So while all this is happening, 
he said, Oh, sorry, I've got to 

465
00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:45,680
mention the bit where Ethan's 
doing his cover and he's talking

466
00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:48,920
about traffic patterns to that 
dude who we see later in Star 

467
00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:50,840
Wars. 
Yeah, Greg Grunberg. 

468
00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:55,840
What a bit of netball buddy 
casting Gigi Abram's school 

469
00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:59,040
friend who we just like fucking 
gets into loads of his films. 

470
00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:02,040
Yeah. 
Greg Grunberg who will always 

471
00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:05,280
knows of some back Parkman from 
Heroes because he has such a 

472
00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:07,520
fucking cop face. 
Kevin's like the Department of 

473
00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:09,320
Transportation, and he feels 
like, yeah, I've been there for 

474
00:24:09,320 --> 00:24:10,800
almost 10 years now. 
Wow. 

475
00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:14,760
And Kevin's like, what is that? 
What do you do there, Ethan? 

476
00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:18,480
Study traffic patterns, flow, 
parking control strategy, 

477
00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:21,160
optimum speed limits. 
And we developed plans of attack

478
00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:23,200
to eliminate the blockage. 
When you hit the brakes for a 

479
00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:24,840
second, just tap them on the 
freeway. 

480
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:26,800
You can literally track the 
ripple effect of that action 

481
00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:28,400
across a 200 mile stretch of 
road. 

482
00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:32,160
And you know why do you know? 
Because traffic has memory. 

483
00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:34,720
It's amazing. 
It's like a living Organism. 

484
00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:36,560
Let me finish up that martini 
for you. 

485
00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:39,160
Wow. 
And then Keithan, like Ethan 

486
00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:40,880
walks off. 
Kevin does that look if like who

487
00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:42,840
the fuck is this guy? 
He like rolls his eyes and 

488
00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:45,040
pretends to be asleep as I go. 
So boring. 

489
00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:48,040
What do you do for a job, Kevin?
Yeah, that's so fucking 

490
00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:48,680
interesting. 
And. 

491
00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:51,320
Love like the immediate reaction
to the two women round. 

492
00:24:51,360 --> 00:24:53,040
I'd marry him. 
I'd marry him. 

493
00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:56,240
It's like I'm fucking ovulating 
right now, you know? 

494
00:24:56,640 --> 00:24:58,160
It's like they are like, yeah, 
yeah, that's cool. 

495
00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:02,400
So during the party, Ethan 
receives a phone call. 

496
00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:06,760
It's it's encoded, isn't it? 
It's they say it's a like a cold

497
00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:09,400
calling call from. 
Travel Agency. 

498
00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:11,440
So he hangs with the film, not 
saying anything, reaches down to

499
00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:14,240
the ice box, throws all the ice 
out and then tells Julia that 

500
00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:15,720
they've run out of ice. 
We asked him to the shop. 

501
00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:19,000
So he goes and does that. 
And in the still gas station, he

502
00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:23,040
bumps into the IMF director of 
operations, John Musgrave, 

503
00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:26,480
played by Billy Crudup. 
And he approaches him about a 

504
00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:30,760
special mission to rescue one of
Ethan's proteges, Lindsay Faris,

505
00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:33,840
who's played by Kerry Russell. 
Yeah, so. 

506
00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:35,560
Brilliant scene. 
Yeah, it's good. 

507
00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:37,800
So what are they doing? 
They're talking, but they're not

508
00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:40,800
looking at each other. 
Tom Cruise, Ethan is looking for

509
00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:43,640
like the the talk about slushies
and like what to eat, and he's 

510
00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:45,640
looking at chips and stuff. 
There's a whole thing in the 

511
00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:48,240
screenplay, which I think is cut
out, about how Ethan has been so

512
00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:50,360
busy planning this party that he
hasn't eaten and he's really 

513
00:25:50,360 --> 00:25:53,640
hungry, which they cut out. 
That is, he's just like me. 

514
00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:54,640
For real. 
For real. 

515
00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:57,880
Should have left that in. 
Ethan Hangry confirmed. 

516
00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:00,840
Ethan hungry? 
That sounds like they want to go

517
00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:02,800
hangry. 
Right what? 

518
00:26:02,920 --> 00:26:04,960
What was your impression of 
Billy Crook when you first saw 

519
00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:06,680
him? 
Did you catch on the vibes? 

520
00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:08,640
You're a little bit off of this 
guy straight away. 

521
00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:11,160
Fucking sinister. 
I've I've I've found the vibes 

522
00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:14,320
to be off in this. 
Says says something, there's the

523
00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:17,440
something he says that like gets
my back up almost straight away.

524
00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:19,160
Most grave. 
Hey, I know we joke about it, 

525
00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:21,040
but I'm always as close to 
begging you to quit training on 

526
00:26:21,040 --> 00:26:22,200
people who get your ass back in 
the field. 

527
00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:23,360
But it's not what you do 
anymore. 

528
00:26:23,360 --> 00:26:27,360
Respect your choice, except I 
know how you close, how close 

529
00:26:27,360 --> 00:26:29,120
you were with Lindsay, so I 
figured you might want to lead 

530
00:26:29,120 --> 00:26:31,280
the team. 
It gets a little bit too like 

531
00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:34,120
Tony on the heartstrings. 
Yeah, which gives me which gives

532
00:26:34,120 --> 00:26:39,560
me off vibes. 
Yeah, it's, it's unprofessional 

533
00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:43,880
for someone in that kind of 
childbirth, isn't it? 

534
00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:45,040
I mean. 
Come. 

535
00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:48,040
On, come on, come on. 
Do it for her buddy. 

536
00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:49,960
Do it for her buddy. 
Come on. 

537
00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:51,840
It's like. 
And it and it works. 

538
00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:55,120
It takes the, it takes that 
camera, goes home, sits in his 

539
00:26:55,120 --> 00:26:58,160
garage and watches the through 
the little Kodak thing, watches,

540
00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:00,360
watches the mission brief. 
As we're watching the mission 

541
00:27:00,360 --> 00:27:02,600
brief, we're hearing about this 
guy, Owen Davian. 

542
00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:06,880
And Owen Davian has taken 
Lindsay Faris captive in a big 

543
00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:10,960
warehouse in Berlin somewhere. 
And the team has already been 

544
00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:14,040
nominated for it, including 
Declan Gormley, played by John 

545
00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:17,520
for Reese Myers, Zen Lee, played
by Maggie Q and our old friend 

546
00:27:17,520 --> 00:27:18,760
Luther Stickle. 
Yeah. 

547
00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:23,080
Play, play, play by Bing, 
Rhames, Phineas, Freak himself. 

548
00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:26,520
And as we're getting that brief,
we're also getting like these 

549
00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:31,480
sort of like Super 8 flashbacks.
Yeah. 

550
00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:35,120
Of training montage with. 
Yeah, stick fighting. 

551
00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:38,000
Stick fighting. 
Yeah, crack, crack, crack the 

552
00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:40,520
stick fighting and like tripping
each other up and oh, you're 

553
00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:41,840
good, but you're not as good as 
me. 

554
00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:43,960
And then she trips him up and 
it's like, ah, you find me, 

555
00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:46,800
you've bested me kind of thing. 
And she's like, she's like 

556
00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:49,960
blindfold on rebuilding rifles 
and handguns and stuff and all 

557
00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:51,840
that kind of thing. 
But but it's like fun bounce 

558
00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:54,040
because that's what people that 
IMF do for fun. 

559
00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:55,560
So you get that. 
And then it's a bit like, you 

560
00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:56,880
can see it's like emotionally 
affected him. 

561
00:27:56,880 --> 00:27:59,360
And you know, with the decision 
he's made before he's made it, 

562
00:27:59,360 --> 00:28:01,280
he's going to go and lead up 
this mission. 

563
00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:06,520
So he does that. 
He explains to Julia that work 

564
00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:08,720
called. 
There's a public transport 

565
00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:12,400
conference that's dropped short 
notice I have to go to. 

566
00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:16,280
There's a transport emergency? 
What like has it been a train 

567
00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:19,240
crash? 
Has has has been a massive multi

568
00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:22,120
car pile up somewhere? 
Has a fucking bridge falling 

569
00:28:22,120 --> 00:28:25,080
onto a freeway? 
No, this is an urgent conference

570
00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:27,920
I've got to go to right before I
get married. 

571
00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:31,200
Moid behaviour. 
She is dumping this man. 

572
00:28:31,360 --> 00:28:33,200
She is going to be all over at 
it with this. 

573
00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:37,760
I think we need to discuss 
Julia's taste in men and her 

574
00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:40,400
inability to see a red flag. 
I think Sandy was going to say 

575
00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:42,360
something there. 
Yeah, I was going to say the 

576
00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:46,480
transport emergency is the 1615 
from Brighton coming through and

577
00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:49,560
it's being pulled by a red green
diesel today and he needs to put

578
00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:53,800
a 3D camera into his mouth and 
film himself on the bridge over 

579
00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:56,480
the track. 
Francois Bourgeois, that's what 

580
00:28:56,480 --> 00:28:58,440
he is. 
Can you imagine, like to keep 

581
00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:01,040
up, keep his cover? 
He's got a whole Instagram real 

582
00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:02,280
channel. 
I'm doing that. 

583
00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:04,960
This is the 1615. 
And is he got a tooth? 

584
00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:08,400
The horn for me? 
Yeah. 

585
00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:15,040
The horn for me, yeah. 
And then fucking flash forward 

586
00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:18,560
like 3 weeks and you're some 
terrorist in the middle of butt 

587
00:29:18,560 --> 00:29:22,160
fuck Noah and the last thing you
see is this guy who you laugh at

588
00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:26,920
on YouTube suddenly appearing in
your bedroom with trained M4 and

589
00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:31,240
just connecting you to God's 
Wi-Fi and it's like. 

590
00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:34,280
So we we get it, we get it here 
and we get it. 

591
00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:39,880
We get it after this Berlin 
sequence where like Julia like 

592
00:29:39,880 --> 00:29:42,560
is she's obviously knows he's 
hiding something. 

593
00:29:42,560 --> 00:29:46,640
She's not like a total idiot, 
but she but she's she's like 

594
00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:50,720
incredibly in curious about it. 
She's like, and it's not like a 

595
00:29:50,720 --> 00:29:53,920
deal breaker for it's all she's 
like, look, this, whatever it is

596
00:29:53,920 --> 00:29:56,440
you're hiding, you can tell me, 
you know, I know there's 

597
00:29:56,440 --> 00:29:59,280
something and like she doesn't 
know that's work related. 

598
00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:02,400
It could be, could be anything. 
You could be, you could be like 

599
00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:04,040
a criminal. 
You could be having like 10 

600
00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:06,320
affairs. 
You can have a whole secret 

601
00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:09,560
family somewhere. 
He could be trapping people in a

602
00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:11,920
basement somewhere. 
You know what? 

603
00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:17,120
I mean at all, at all tracks 
like a fair behaviour, doesn't 

604
00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:20,120
it? 
Because as cover story, it's so 

605
00:30:20,120 --> 00:30:24,280
mundane, yet he's having to go 
on these emergency conferences 

606
00:30:24,280 --> 00:30:25,200
and shit. 
It's like. 

607
00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:29,360
I need to take my other kid from
my other secret family to the 

608
00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:33,600
dentist. 
He just goes and puts on one of 

609
00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:37,880
his IMF masks that he keeps just
like being a like guy is like, 

610
00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:41,040
hi, it's me, it's your dad Frank
and like Papa Frank. 

611
00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:44,960
It's the old Doug Ray Scott one 
from the On the Other Guy. 

612
00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:47,320
Just like fucking hell yeah, 
man. 

613
00:30:47,680 --> 00:30:52,200
Like, I mean, she's, she's 
powering through all the red 

614
00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:54,240
flags and all our friends are as
well. 

615
00:30:54,440 --> 00:30:56,240
It's mad. 
It's like it'd be the fact. 

616
00:30:56,280 --> 00:31:00,160
I mean if I was doing this kind 
of behaviour and Emma's mates 

617
00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:03,640
would be like seriously, put a 
fucking air tag in his jeans. 

618
00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:06,840
But there's a version of this 
story where Like Julia Mees 

619
00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:11,240
wound up on Like Love Is Blind 
season 10, like well beyond like

620
00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:12,560
the one. 
Let's just add like people, 

621
00:31:12,560 --> 00:31:14,280
people have known for a long 
time what this show is. 

622
00:31:14,280 --> 00:31:16,080
People are trying to get on 
there, but she's still there 

623
00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:18,360
trying to find actual love, not 
to try and get famous for a 

624
00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:20,160
little bit. 
And she's just getting 

625
00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:21,600
attracted. 
She's just one year with like 

626
00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:25,080
the worst guys, just all the 
most terrible men you've ever 

627
00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:26,680
heard of. 
Like people who meet her then 

628
00:31:26,680 --> 00:31:28,800
go, oh, I thought you'd have 
bigger tits. 

629
00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:30,760
So I'm not attracted to you. 
So I may ask. 

630
00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:31,920
Fuck it. 
That's Michelle Marrahan, you 

631
00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:33,880
idiot. 
Yeah, like some guy, like, he 

632
00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:37,080
like, sits in front of her like 
he's bought like, like the 

633
00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:40,240
smallest glass of wine he he can
get because he's cheap and he's 

634
00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:43,560
not like a fucking big dope like
Doctor Papa, like, like me the 

635
00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:45,640
God drink. 
And he's like, actually, you've 

636
00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:48,280
got a low canful tilt and your 
elbows are sharp. 

637
00:31:48,360 --> 00:31:50,920
I'm sorry. 
And he's yeah, yeah, yeah. 

638
00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:51,800
It's. 
Over and. 

639
00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:54,600
He's, he's really got the list 
of qualities that she should 

640
00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:56,600
have, but like in a LinkedIn 
sort of way. 

641
00:31:56,600 --> 00:31:58,960
Oh. 
My God, it's like, like those, 

642
00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:01,480
like those, like those nightmare
dating profiles. 

643
00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:06,800
They say, ladies, you must be 18
to 22 years old, 5 foot 2 to 5 

644
00:32:06,800 --> 00:32:13,880
foot 4, Catholic trad, never 
married, no tattoos, support the

645
00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:16,520
troops. 
And then they got like 1520 

646
00:32:16,520 --> 00:32:20,240
different fucking like deal 
breaking prerequisites and that 

647
00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:23,520
it's a dude who just looks like 
he didn't finish cooking and 

648
00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:25,440
needs to go back in the womb for
a month. 

649
00:32:25,720 --> 00:32:27,800
Yeah, yeah. 
And, and, and these guys, like 

650
00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:29,880
she'll be dressed to the nines 
and he'll be, and they'll be 

651
00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:31,040
there like in a fancy 
restaurant. 

652
00:32:31,040 --> 00:32:32,880
He'll be there with like a pair 
of cargo shorts on. 

653
00:32:33,280 --> 00:32:35,560
Yeah. 
And like and like his in his in 

654
00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:39,480
his nice T-shirt. 
The good one, The good one, the 

655
00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:41,680
one with two stains on it. 
Yeah, yeah. 

656
00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:44,440
Only two stains on it. 
God, yeah, and he's got like a 

657
00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:48,360
broccoli haircut. 
My God, he's he's he's got the 

658
00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:51,080
whole I got half fucking. 
I see you got half your haircut 

659
00:32:51,080 --> 00:32:54,520
kind of thing. 
Oh my God is. 

660
00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:57,400
This already the most egregious 
oversaw of the military 

661
00:32:57,400 --> 00:33:01,520
industrial complex and getting 
away with being a walking red 

662
00:33:01,520 --> 00:33:05,600
flick despite being that short. 
Big time the fact that the fact 

663
00:33:05,600 --> 00:33:07,960
that the like we were skipping 
ahead a little bit, but the fact

664
00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:10,600
that you fucking he convinces 
them to get married in the 

665
00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:12,800
hospital Chapel. 
Holy shit. 

666
00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:15,280
Like without presumably they 
have a marriage licence already.

667
00:33:15,280 --> 00:33:16,920
I guess if they've they figured 
that out. 

668
00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:19,840
This is Marine Corps boot camp 
behaviour. 

669
00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:25,160
It is, it is this is, this is 
like wow, like an officer and 

670
00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:29,120
gentleman type stuff like like 
finishing phase one about to go 

671
00:33:29,120 --> 00:33:30,640
and do phase two on the other 
side of the country. 

672
00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:32,360
Got to lock him down to marriage
now. 

673
00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:34,080
I don't know, Okie from 
Muskogee. 

674
00:33:34,080 --> 00:33:36,880
I can get that right here. 
I want to be, I want to be an 

675
00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:38,560
officer's wife. 
I want to live in pets. 

676
00:33:38,560 --> 00:33:40,840
I want to yeah, we're in. 
Pets are cooler now, but I want 

677
00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:47,920
to live in Hawaii like. 
Do you, Johnny Boot Marine, take

678
00:33:48,160 --> 00:33:52,360
this girl who you only know by 
her dancing name, who you met at

679
00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:55,760
3:00 this morning to be your 
lawfully wedded wife On this 

680
00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:58,320
date, the same date at 5:00 in 
the morning? 

681
00:33:58,440 --> 00:34:01,480
Fucking alchemy bad from us. 
Like do you take what's your 

682
00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:03,520
real name? 
Because I know what's not really

683
00:34:03,520 --> 00:34:07,800
charisma. 1/3 it is Jesus 
Christ. 

684
00:34:07,800 --> 00:34:09,440
Welcome to the dance world. 
About to Make Love to some 

685
00:34:09,440 --> 00:34:11,040
Marines and get married. 
That's Christmas. 

686
00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:14,520
We, I'm just, I have right now. 
I was going to say, we're not 

687
00:34:14,520 --> 00:34:15,920
here on Christmas. 
Girls going to make a living. 

688
00:34:16,239 --> 00:34:17,560
Fucking right. 
Absolutely. 

689
00:34:17,560 --> 00:34:20,360
We, we, we, we support the 
troops and we support the 

690
00:34:20,360 --> 00:34:22,320
midnight ballerinas. 
You know, go get it. 

691
00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:26,120
I was going to say we, we have 
taken the peace out of traffic 

692
00:34:26,120 --> 00:34:29,159
transport emergency meeting for 
10 minutes now. 

693
00:34:29,159 --> 00:34:34,880
Rory, I think out of us three, 
your job is the only one that's 

694
00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:38,280
done drug tests recently. 
Yeah, and once again I missed 

695
00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:40,159
out on them. 
You make a very good point. 

696
00:34:40,159 --> 00:34:41,400
We've talked about this for a 
while. 

697
00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:44,440
So Berlin. 
So Berlin. 

698
00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:50,199
OK guys, so the rocket Berlin, 
this film I think right. 

699
00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:54,679
I, I like it a lot, but I think 
it suffers from not adequately 

700
00:34:54,679 --> 00:34:56,480
explaining the heists before 
they do them. 

701
00:34:56,600 --> 00:34:57,760
And this counts as one of them, 
I think. 

702
00:34:58,120 --> 00:35:00,240
And I know that this is very 
much still in the first sort of 

703
00:35:00,240 --> 00:35:01,640
15 pages of scripts kind of 
thing. 

704
00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:03,720
So less of an issue with this 
one. 

705
00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:06,880
But we could have the Vatican. 
I think it's a problem anyway. 

706
00:35:07,040 --> 00:35:10,480
So Kerry Russell is somewhere in
the middle of this building 

707
00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:14,320
having been tortured. 
She's she's barely conscious. 

708
00:35:14,320 --> 00:35:16,480
Standard setup. 
It's a it's a warehouse full of 

709
00:35:16,480 --> 00:35:25,440
goons and what they've done. 
Get your mind out of the gutter.

710
00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:29,000
Get. 
Your mind back into the goon 

711
00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:31,720
cave. 
It's a it's a, it's a warehouse 

712
00:35:31,720 --> 00:35:38,240
full of thugs and hench men and,
and that plan and I thought that

713
00:35:38,240 --> 00:35:40,680
plan would be right. 
So he's plans to exfiltrate her.

714
00:35:40,720 --> 00:35:43,440
And I thought, OK, right, cool. 
So this was like a stealth 

715
00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:45,800
action kind of game. 
You'd go in there, you'd try not

716
00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:47,560
get detected. 
And then it turns like an escort

717
00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:48,720
mission where you had to fight 
your way out. 

718
00:35:48,720 --> 00:35:51,360
Probably. 
It's not quite what happens 

719
00:35:51,360 --> 00:35:53,440
here. 
What happens here is they've got

720
00:35:53,440 --> 00:35:56,720
like a flatbed lorry, which 
they've turned into like an OPS 

721
00:35:56,720 --> 00:35:57,520
room. 
I love that. 

722
00:35:57,520 --> 00:36:01,400
By the way, classic option 
minivan tick Phineas freak has 

723
00:36:01,400 --> 00:36:07,800
set up for machine guns, links 
to laptops with like EO so they 

724
00:36:07,800 --> 00:36:09,480
can remotely operate them, which
is cool. 

725
00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:12,440
And he set them up to attack 
various parts of the building 

726
00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:16,440
based on and it's not made 
explicitly clear, but they have 

727
00:36:16,440 --> 00:36:19,320
some sort of X-ray capability 
where they can see through the 

728
00:36:19,320 --> 00:36:21,720
walls. 
It's not quite heat, it's 

729
00:36:21,720 --> 00:36:24,760
something else they can see 
through the walls, so the top of

730
00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:27,600
that van is presumably pumping 
quite a lot of rads towards that

731
00:36:27,600 --> 00:36:31,960
building to be able to do that. 
There's there's like fucking 

732
00:36:32,120 --> 00:36:35,000
there's like high degrees of 
male infertility reported in 

733
00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:39,520
like the next like few years 
after that drops that part in 

734
00:36:39,520 --> 00:36:41,280
Germany. 
Price, that little chip inside 

735
00:36:41,280 --> 00:36:43,640
of Kerry Russell's head hasn't 
been singed by that actually 

736
00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:46,840
already, but yeah, OK. 
But if you have been surveilled 

737
00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:49,600
by Ethan Hunt in the last 10 
years, you may be entitled to 

738
00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:52,680
compensation. 
So, so that's happening. 

739
00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:57,160
So the team we have Declan 
Gormley, who is sitting in a 

740
00:36:57,160 --> 00:37:00,840
Huey off site and is dripping 
about it like he's like he's 

741
00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:03,600
bored. 
All you have to fly about it. 

742
00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:05,160
Yeah, All I do is copy. 
Like me. 

743
00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:07,440
You've also also going to fly 
Huey. 

744
00:37:07,720 --> 00:37:10,640
That's cool. 
So that's that. 

745
00:37:11,120 --> 00:37:12,880
Zen Lee, Maggie Q. 
We're going to call him Maggie Q

746
00:37:12,880 --> 00:37:14,240
for the rest of the movie. 
Yeah. 

747
00:37:14,240 --> 00:37:16,200
Because no one else calls. 
No one else calls a my character

748
00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:19,360
name. 
So Mikey Q, her job is to go in 

749
00:37:19,440 --> 00:37:21,760
and steal evidence. 
So she's trying to get a couple 

750
00:37:21,760 --> 00:37:25,000
of laptops that are in there. 
So she's infiltrating and doing 

751
00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:28,920
that concurrently. 
Meanwhile, your boy Ethan Hunt 

752
00:37:28,920 --> 00:37:31,400
is in there trying to find Kerry
Russell. 

753
00:37:31,640 --> 00:37:34,560
So initially it seems pretty 
quiet. 

754
00:37:34,560 --> 00:37:36,840
They go in there, There's very 
little fighting. 

755
00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:40,640
Megan Q kills a guy in one 
office, which is the same office

756
00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:42,080
that all the laptops are in, and
she goes. 

757
00:37:42,080 --> 00:37:44,080
And then she starts, like, 
basically packing them up into a

758
00:37:44,080 --> 00:37:45,240
bag to steal. 
Yeah. 

759
00:37:45,960 --> 00:37:48,440
It very quickly turns into a bit
of a connect situation. 

760
00:37:48,520 --> 00:37:50,920
Yeah. 
Once they secured her and got 

761
00:37:50,920 --> 00:37:54,000
her like down on the ground and 
covered after he's injected it 

762
00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:56,680
with some like adrenaline or 
something, they basically like 

763
00:37:56,680 --> 00:38:00,920
duck down and then do like they 
just fire all those machine guns

764
00:38:00,920 --> 00:38:02,800
off for a laugh and they just 
basically start shooting the 

765
00:38:02,800 --> 00:38:05,640
building up seems unsafe and 
start a massive firefight. 

766
00:38:05,640 --> 00:38:09,280
And then there's a very cool bit
where like Ethan and and Carrie 

767
00:38:09,280 --> 00:38:11,160
are like back-to-back shooting 
people. 

768
00:38:11,560 --> 00:38:14,920
And they do a cool thing where 
like Ethan throws a pistol 

769
00:38:14,920 --> 00:38:18,320
towards her and it spins in the 
air, but she catches it and she 

770
00:38:18,320 --> 00:38:21,800
spins around a corner and kills 
a guy all in one slick movement,

771
00:38:22,080 --> 00:38:24,080
which is very cool and looks 
very good. 

772
00:38:24,360 --> 00:38:25,720
Yeah, I like the sequence. 
What? 

773
00:38:25,720 --> 00:38:29,600
What did you say about it? 
I like there's a lot of a real 

774
00:38:29,600 --> 00:38:31,280
life for assault. 
Quickly going back to the 

775
00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:36,240
helicopter thing, I love how the
IMF might be a very super secret

776
00:38:36,240 --> 00:38:39,920
sketchy outfit. 
The respectful enough of the 

777
00:38:39,920 --> 00:38:43,280
German government to have their 
otherwise unmarked black 

778
00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:47,640
helicopter have big ass German 
national registration numbers on

779
00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:50,520
it's on it's tail. 
Boom, very very visible. 

780
00:38:50,600 --> 00:38:54,160
That's a fake registration on 
that by the way. 

781
00:38:54,160 --> 00:38:55,040
It. 
Is indeed. 

782
00:38:55,040 --> 00:38:58,520
So the helicopter was a model 
built by Industrial Light in 

783
00:38:58,520 --> 00:39:02,560
Magic yeah, yeah, yeah. 
So I don't know if there's a 

784
00:39:02,560 --> 00:39:03,160
big. 
One then, yeah. 

785
00:39:03,640 --> 00:39:04,280
Exactly. 
Yeah. 

786
00:39:04,280 --> 00:39:06,760
So it's like 1 one third scale I
think. 

787
00:39:07,200 --> 00:39:10,920
Oh cool man. 
And yeah, so I like that they've

788
00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:13,320
they've got these like sketchy 
unmarked helicopters. 

789
00:39:13,320 --> 00:39:17,080
But apart from the big ass, big 
ass German national registration

790
00:39:17,080 --> 00:39:19,720
number there, I look like 
there's there's a great kind of 

791
00:39:19,720 --> 00:39:23,600
storytelling with with Tom 
Cruise and Kerry Russell just 

792
00:39:23,600 --> 00:39:24,960
through the way the move 
together, the way the fire 

793
00:39:24,960 --> 00:39:26,560
together. 
There's those scenes when I go 

794
00:39:26,560 --> 00:39:30,400
back-to-back. 
There's one shot in particular 

795
00:39:30,760 --> 00:39:35,480
that just the way the paused, 
the way the acting together hits

796
00:39:35,480 --> 00:39:38,520
in such way as you think she's 
going to be in the rest of the 

797
00:39:38,520 --> 00:39:41,640
film, that's awesome. 
Absolute dopamine. 

798
00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:44,120
It's a great storyteller. 
It is. 

799
00:39:44,120 --> 00:39:46,640
And if you think about, like, if
you think back to the original 

800
00:39:46,640 --> 00:39:49,480
Mission Impossible, yeah. 
And the number of women that are

801
00:39:49,480 --> 00:39:51,760
on the team there. 
But if you think, well, it's not

802
00:39:51,760 --> 00:39:53,800
the first time they've had a 
team that's dominated by women. 

803
00:39:54,000 --> 00:39:56,600
And also, that's also in that 
film, there's a little bit of 

804
00:39:56,600 --> 00:39:59,080
sexual tension between Tom 
Cruise and every woman. 

805
00:39:59,400 --> 00:40:02,200
Yeah. 
In that team so you know it's 

806
00:40:02,200 --> 00:40:05,080
like they could be going for a 
similar vibe in this movie and 

807
00:40:05,080 --> 00:40:07,640
they could be going for like a 
will they won't they between him

808
00:40:07,640 --> 00:40:09,760
and Kerry Russell because then 
it would be like someone he 

809
00:40:09,760 --> 00:40:12,320
loves from his IMF life versus 
someone he loves from his non 

810
00:40:12,320 --> 00:40:14,280
IMF life. 
And that could be like the plot 

811
00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:15,960
that goes forward. 
So you yeah, you could 

812
00:40:15,960 --> 00:40:18,080
definitely read that and go this
is where this movie is going. 

813
00:40:18,560 --> 00:40:20,480
Yeah. 
Yeah, that can ask to get that 

814
00:40:20,480 --> 00:40:22,240
kind of thing. 
But it ain't. 

815
00:40:22,760 --> 00:40:26,520
Exactly it is. 
So they do a very cool stunt 

816
00:40:26,520 --> 00:40:29,600
where they have to jump up the 
building after like deadening 

817
00:40:29,600 --> 00:40:34,080
and gas pipe, and they jump up 
the building and like kind of 

818
00:40:34,080 --> 00:40:37,560
rappel down at speed onto the 
top of the waiting van that 

819
00:40:37,560 --> 00:40:42,000
Mufa's driving to exfill them 
having with having already had 

820
00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:43,920
Maggie Q jump over a window to 
exfill as well. 

821
00:40:43,920 --> 00:40:46,600
Very cool. 
And then they drive away with 

822
00:40:46,600 --> 00:40:49,200
them on top of the van, midway 
to the helicopter. 

823
00:40:50,440 --> 00:40:52,960
At the same time as they're 
driving in the van, another 

824
00:40:52,960 --> 00:40:56,720
enemy helicopter flying 
extremely low altitudes to fit 

825
00:40:56,720 --> 00:40:58,000
into the shot. 
It's. 

826
00:40:58,040 --> 00:41:01,920
Such a fucking cool scene it. 
Is really good to the point 

827
00:41:01,920 --> 00:41:04,600
where, you know, if I was being 
like a funny Duddy, I'd be like 

828
00:41:04,920 --> 00:41:08,280
helicopter come from and like 
what I learned was was it was it

829
00:41:08,280 --> 00:41:09,080
real? 
Where here? 

830
00:41:09,120 --> 00:41:10,520
Like what's going on? 
Yeah. 

831
00:41:11,160 --> 00:41:13,000
But don't think about it, don't 
worry about it. 

832
00:41:13,040 --> 00:41:15,320
You don't need to know. 
Just go with the go with the 

833
00:41:15,320 --> 00:41:16,760
flow, right? 
Just to sure about getting the 

834
00:41:16,760 --> 00:41:19,160
Huey carrier. 
So I should say name Lindsey 

835
00:41:19,160 --> 00:41:22,360
Farris start suffering from 
extreme head pain and they just 

836
00:41:22,360 --> 00:41:25,000
happen to have a device that can
scan inside of her brain on 

837
00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:26,240
them. 
And they do. 

838
00:41:26,240 --> 00:41:29,920
And they discover that she has a
chip and the chip is gonna has 

839
00:41:29,920 --> 00:41:32,480
been activated and in 4 minutes 
time it'll deny it and it'll 

840
00:41:32,480 --> 00:41:34,400
blow up her brain and God knows 
what else. 

841
00:41:34,400 --> 00:41:36,600
But they put her in the back of 
the helicopter in the hope that 

842
00:41:36,600 --> 00:41:39,440
they can stop it by using a 
defibrillator to show out the 

843
00:41:39,440 --> 00:41:40,200
chip. 
Yeah. 

844
00:41:40,960 --> 00:41:42,760
Which should theoretically kill 
her, but then she can react to 

845
00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:44,520
life again. 
But it should make the the chip 

846
00:41:44,520 --> 00:41:46,400
render it in it. 
That's what they're trying to 

847
00:41:46,400 --> 00:41:48,160
do. 
Meanwhile, helicopter versus 

848
00:41:48,160 --> 00:41:50,880
helicopter dogfight in a wind 
farm. 

849
00:41:51,480 --> 00:41:53,920
Very cool. 
Incredibly cool. 

850
00:41:53,920 --> 00:41:57,160
Holy crap, one of those. 
That's one of those. 

851
00:41:58,640 --> 00:42:01,800
It's one of those scenes that 
like kind of makes you a dummy 

852
00:42:02,440 --> 00:42:03,880
because you watch it. 
Oh shit, are they going to 

853
00:42:03,880 --> 00:42:05,200
crash? 
Oh my God, it makes you forget 

854
00:42:05,200 --> 00:42:07,960
that, you know, no, they're not 
going to die in a fiery 

855
00:42:07,960 --> 00:42:11,320
conflagration because there's 
like another two hours this film

856
00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:13,800
left. 
But it takes into the story. 

857
00:42:13,800 --> 00:42:16,640
It's brilliant. 
It's just, it's really, really 

858
00:42:16,880 --> 00:42:19,280
contrast this enough. 
Fucking cool. 

859
00:42:19,640 --> 00:42:22,680
What what mission is really good
for is that because of the 

860
00:42:22,680 --> 00:42:25,800
entire team getting wiped out 
with the sort of mission 1 where

861
00:42:25,800 --> 00:42:27,320
always it's a bit like Game of 
Thrones. 

862
00:42:27,480 --> 00:42:30,280
Anyone could die in any moment. 
So when Monkey Cue, for 

863
00:42:30,280 --> 00:42:32,400
instance, tumbles up the side of
their cops and it's hanging on 

864
00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:34,400
for dear life because she's 
holding onto some kind of 

865
00:42:34,400 --> 00:42:36,040
briefcase or something, have to 
pull her back in again. 

866
00:42:36,120 --> 00:42:38,400
There's a there's a version of 
that where she just gets dropped

867
00:42:39,160 --> 00:42:41,320
and dies. 
Another thing I like about this 

868
00:42:41,320 --> 00:42:43,600
sequence is the attention to 
detail. 

869
00:42:43,600 --> 00:42:49,960
There's a bit where a part of a 
wind farm falls off prompts into

870
00:42:49,960 --> 00:42:52,040
the ground and a lesser film 
maker would have had it just 

871
00:42:52,040 --> 00:42:54,840
happen into the field, boom and 
make the noise and you know, 

872
00:42:54,880 --> 00:42:57,840
stick to the ground here to give
it a bit of extra kineticism and

873
00:42:57,840 --> 00:42:59,680
just to have a bit bit more 
vibes. 

874
00:42:59,920 --> 00:43:02,400
It happened to land amongst some
sheep and the sheep go back and 

875
00:43:02,400 --> 00:43:04,920
run away. 
I like that. 

876
00:43:04,920 --> 00:43:06,880
Just didn't need to be there. 
It was fun, yeah. 

877
00:43:07,080 --> 00:43:09,800
You see, you see that pissed off
a lot of people from like 

878
00:43:09,800 --> 00:43:11,520
reviews and stuff I've seen 
people are mad at that. 

879
00:43:11,520 --> 00:43:14,040
Fuck off. 
I say what the fuck man and say 

880
00:43:14,200 --> 00:43:16,640
you what? 
What a fucking opinion to have. 

881
00:43:16,920 --> 00:43:20,120
I'm mad because of the sheep. 
Like there aren't sheep in 

882
00:43:20,120 --> 00:43:21,920
Germany, like there aren't sheep
in Berlin. 

883
00:43:22,520 --> 00:43:24,960
You need to get on this movies 
level and this movies level is 

884
00:43:24,960 --> 00:43:27,200
is fun. 
Yeah, basically. 

885
00:43:27,560 --> 00:43:30,800
Somehow using that that old 
Huey, some excellent Pilot and 

886
00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:34,520
Declan languages to avoid one of
the heat seeking missiles by 

887
00:43:34,520 --> 00:43:36,560
firing into the side of a wind 
farm. 

888
00:43:36,760 --> 00:43:40,920
And then they managed to evade 
the the helicopter by flying 

889
00:43:40,920 --> 00:43:43,440
through the blades of a of one 
of the towers. 

890
00:43:43,440 --> 00:43:46,560
And instead of just like pulling
away the pursuing helicopter 

891
00:43:46,760 --> 00:43:49,600
like just follows them into it 
and gets twatted by by a by a 

892
00:43:49,600 --> 00:43:51,720
blade. 
The helicopter forgets it's a 

893
00:43:51,720 --> 00:43:54,640
helicopter and forgets that they
can just stop and go backwards 

894
00:43:54,640 --> 00:43:57,360
and it's like bought the 
tickets, take the ride. 

895
00:43:57,400 --> 00:43:59,680
As they get away, they are 
waiting to charge up a 

896
00:43:59,680 --> 00:44:02,320
defibrillator, which is taking 
like 30 seconds, but they make 

897
00:44:02,400 --> 00:44:04,000
you wait those painful 30 
seconds. 

898
00:44:04,040 --> 00:44:07,200
As this is happening, like the 
charge on the head is clearly 

899
00:44:07,200 --> 00:44:08,200
getting worse and worse and 
worse. 

900
00:44:08,360 --> 00:44:11,320
And as they have 6 seconds left 
before they can use the panels 

901
00:44:11,320 --> 00:44:14,600
on it, it donates. 
And we are given a horrible shot

902
00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:17,440
of like one eye kind of ruined, 
looking straight ahead. 

903
00:44:17,680 --> 00:44:20,560
And the other eye for the force 
of the blast is looking away. 

904
00:44:20,880 --> 00:44:23,920
And we see it like fucking five 
times and it's horrible. 

905
00:44:25,400 --> 00:44:27,400
Yeah, it's a really good effect 
though, really. 

906
00:44:27,400 --> 00:44:30,720
Like because it gets gets by the
the sensor because it's not 

907
00:44:30,720 --> 00:44:33,880
gory, but it is unnatural and 
horrible. 

908
00:44:34,000 --> 00:44:40,720
Yeah, audible, audible gasp from
Emma when when we're watching 

909
00:44:40,720 --> 00:44:44,080
it, it doesn't shy away from it.
I think that's really cool. 

910
00:44:45,280 --> 00:44:48,440
It's just, I mean, she goes, 
I'll even thank you or whatever.

911
00:44:48,440 --> 00:44:51,040
And then like a second later the
thing pops in our brain and 

912
00:44:51,320 --> 00:44:54,240
you've got the countdowns like 5
seconds or something left and 

913
00:44:54,240 --> 00:44:58,560
it's like, man, that's a. 
Project would become a series 

914
00:44:58,560 --> 00:45:03,080
where like Ethan can't let 
anybody die and they let him get

915
00:45:03,080 --> 00:45:05,040
away with that for ages. 
Like they they give everyone 

916
00:45:05,040 --> 00:45:07,680
plot armour around him so that 
that that works and he is like 

917
00:45:07,680 --> 00:45:10,520
this unstoppable force. 
But here he is the same kind of 

918
00:45:10,520 --> 00:45:11,800
powerless he was in the first 
film. 

919
00:45:11,840 --> 00:45:14,000
And you seem like he acts it 
pretty well, I think. 

920
00:45:14,000 --> 00:45:18,160
I think really goodness, this is
like peak Tom being a crazy guy 

921
00:45:18,360 --> 00:45:20,440
era as well. 
This is like a year after the 

922
00:45:20,440 --> 00:45:23,200
the couch jumping on Oprah. 
He's married to Katie Holmes. 

923
00:45:23,240 --> 00:45:25,720
I'm saying that he's a good 
performer and he hasn't changed,

924
00:45:25,800 --> 00:45:27,320
right. 
Then he goes back to his home. 

925
00:45:27,320 --> 00:45:29,920
You see that he's visibly shaken
up and he can't tell Julie about

926
00:45:29,920 --> 00:45:31,480
it because Julie doesn't know 
about his life. 

927
00:45:31,960 --> 00:45:33,840
So he just shrugs off as he's 
tired. 

928
00:45:34,520 --> 00:45:36,320
And then we have the whole 
business which there was just. 

929
00:45:36,320 --> 00:45:38,480
Too much traffic at work today, 
honey, I'm sorry. 

930
00:45:38,920 --> 00:45:40,560
Yeah, the cars, they wouldn't 
stop. 

931
00:45:40,720 --> 00:45:43,960
Someone someone hit the brake 
for for two seconds on the 

932
00:45:43,960 --> 00:45:47,440
Interstate and the ripple 
effects were terrible, but it's.

933
00:45:47,440 --> 00:45:49,840
Wild. 
He's like, he's like broken. 

934
00:45:49,840 --> 00:45:51,840
He's a visibly broken man. 
She's like, what's what's wrong,

935
00:45:51,840 --> 00:45:54,240
honey? 
And he's like park and ride. 

936
00:45:56,840 --> 00:46:00,280
If I could, if I could come so 
one of his arms is broken. 

937
00:46:00,400 --> 00:46:03,280
He's covered in burn box. 
He's he's, he's lost like 

938
00:46:03,280 --> 00:46:06,200
tutorials in a testicle and 
she's like honey. 

939
00:46:06,360 --> 00:46:09,800
And he's like, there was a big 
fight at work today. 

940
00:46:09,800 --> 00:46:12,440
Somebody said that commute 
aliens were a good idea. 

941
00:46:12,800 --> 00:46:16,440
OK, so Ethan later learns that 
Lindsay mailed him a postcard 

942
00:46:16,720 --> 00:46:20,080
before her capture and discovers
a magnetic microdot under the 

943
00:46:20,080 --> 00:46:23,000
stamp. 
IMF technician Benji Dunn, 

944
00:46:23,080 --> 00:46:27,200
played by Simon Pegg, who who 
wants when he's asked about 

945
00:46:27,200 --> 00:46:29,080
having a career in Hollywood, 
says what is not. 

946
00:46:29,080 --> 00:46:31,160
I'm going to end up being in 
Mission Impossible 3, is it? 

947
00:46:31,800 --> 00:46:33,680
And here he is. 
But by the way, does he have 

948
00:46:33,680 --> 00:46:35,800
like terminal nerd face or 
something? 

949
00:46:37,440 --> 00:46:41,400
Because it always gets like, I 
mean, Star Trek again. 

950
00:46:41,960 --> 00:46:43,920
I thought you were like 
referring to this time in his 

951
00:46:43,920 --> 00:46:45,840
career because it's like like 
this is what someone Peg was 

952
00:46:45,840 --> 00:46:47,520
like at the beginning. 
This is what we this is how we 

953
00:46:47,520 --> 00:46:50,640
knew him. 
Like he's all thin and like an 

954
00:46:50,640 --> 00:46:53,200
action movie star now. 
But like for most of us, like 

955
00:46:53,200 --> 00:46:58,040
watching Spaced Big Train and 
like his small bit parts. 

956
00:46:58,040 --> 00:47:02,200
And I'm Alan Partridge. 
And then the day-to-day. 

957
00:47:02,240 --> 00:47:04,280
No, sorry, Brassai. 
Brassai. 

958
00:47:04,840 --> 00:47:06,840
Yeah. 
Like, this is what it was like. 

959
00:47:07,120 --> 00:47:09,560
Yeah. 
Benji done recovers enough data 

960
00:47:09,560 --> 00:47:12,480
from the laptops to determine 
that Davian will be in Vatican 

961
00:47:12,480 --> 00:47:15,520
City to obtain a mysterious. 
It says here Biological hazard 

962
00:47:15,800 --> 00:47:18,640
could name the rabbit's foot. 
That's retconned, by the way, 

963
00:47:18,640 --> 00:47:20,720
later in the series. 
What they do in this sequence, 

964
00:47:20,720 --> 00:47:24,680
though, is, is they just use, 
like, utter garbage words to try

965
00:47:24,680 --> 00:47:26,560
and explain away that what the 
rabbit's foot is. 

966
00:47:27,000 --> 00:47:30,720
Basically say that it's the Mac 
Guffin and that's all you need 

967
00:47:30,720 --> 00:47:32,560
to know. 
Person watching movie, you don't

968
00:47:32,560 --> 00:47:34,720
actually need to know what it is
or what it does. 

969
00:47:34,760 --> 00:47:38,040
OK, well interesting. 
I had a professor at Oxford, Dr 

970
00:47:38,040 --> 00:47:41,720
Wickham, hugely fast, enormous 
man, taught biomedicular 

971
00:47:41,720 --> 00:47:45,200
kinetics and cellular dynamics 
and he used to try and scare us 

972
00:47:45,240 --> 00:47:47,760
underclassmen by saying that the
world was undoubtedly going to 

973
00:47:47,760 --> 00:47:50,440
be eviscerated by technology, 
that it was inevitable that a 

974
00:47:50,440 --> 00:47:53,440
compound be created that he 
calls the anti God, an 

975
00:47:53,440 --> 00:47:56,080
accelerated mutator, an 
unstoppable, horrific destroyer 

976
00:47:56,080 --> 00:47:58,400
of everything. 
Parks and houses, restaurants, 

977
00:47:58,520 --> 00:48:01,320
beaches, ice cream parlours. 
So whatever a rogue organised 

978
00:48:01,520 --> 00:48:03,400
organisation is willing to spend
this kind of money on a piece of

979
00:48:03,400 --> 00:48:05,880
mystery tech, I always assume 
it's the anti God end of the 

980
00:48:05,880 --> 00:48:08,720
world, that sort of thing. 
Not that I have any idea though,

981
00:48:08,800 --> 00:48:11,320
that's just speculation. 
I expect you not to worry about 

982
00:48:11,320 --> 00:48:12,440
it either. 
Audience at home. 

983
00:48:12,520 --> 00:48:15,080
Yeah, Big Basil Expedition 
energy. 

984
00:48:15,240 --> 00:48:17,080
So yeah, they do the whole, they
do the whole thing now. 

985
00:48:17,080 --> 00:48:19,080
They explain what it is, except 
they don't explain what it is, 

986
00:48:19,080 --> 00:48:20,240
and they never explain what it 
is. 

987
00:48:21,400 --> 00:48:23,680
ChatGPT that's. 
What the bad guy is in the last 

988
00:48:24,360 --> 00:48:26,960
two movies? 
Rory. 

989
00:48:26,960 --> 00:48:28,520
That's not a joke. 
That's pretty much it. 

990
00:48:29,160 --> 00:48:33,200
No, fuck sake. 
It's a large language model 

991
00:48:33,200 --> 00:48:36,120
called the entity. 
Called the fucking hell. 

992
00:48:36,120 --> 00:48:39,280
God damn. 
And it glows in Necron green 

993
00:48:39,280 --> 00:48:40,960
when you put it in the USB 
drive. 

994
00:48:41,360 --> 00:48:44,400
This is just the mad kind of 
escalation to get the franchises

995
00:48:44,400 --> 00:48:46,040
though, isn't it? 
Because like, I mean, like I 

996
00:48:46,040 --> 00:48:48,520
said, the first Fast and Furious
film was like, hey, so the 

997
00:48:48,520 --> 00:48:50,960
street racers and the steel and 
DVD players, and now it's like, 

998
00:48:51,200 --> 00:48:53,680
guys, you got to take those cars
into space to stop the 

999
00:48:53,680 --> 00:48:55,960
terrorists. 
Yeah. 

1000
00:48:56,880 --> 00:49:01,280
I am drifting a tank across an 
Acula submarine on polar ice. 

1001
00:49:02,360 --> 00:49:05,000
Why? 
Because family. 

1002
00:49:05,440 --> 00:49:08,040
Ethan visits Julia at work, 
which was in a spontaneous 

1003
00:49:08,040 --> 00:49:11,520
marriage, which is wild. 
I get married by a HOTA, a 

1004
00:49:11,760 --> 00:49:13,440
hospital chaplain, at their 
wedding rings. 

1005
00:49:13,440 --> 00:49:16,000
By the way, he's wearing a 
little panda on a wedding ring 

1006
00:49:16,000 --> 00:49:18,720
and she's got a little like 
Daisy or something for hers. 

1007
00:49:20,040 --> 00:49:22,040
Very nice. 
Ethan plans an unofficial 

1008
00:49:22,040 --> 00:49:25,680
mission to capture Davian and it
says here the team successfully 

1009
00:49:25,680 --> 00:49:27,320
infiltrates the Vatican and 
captures Davian. 

1010
00:49:28,080 --> 00:49:29,360
Obviously lots, lots have 
happened. 

1011
00:49:29,360 --> 00:49:31,920
So let's get into it. 
Fun little plan. 

1012
00:49:31,960 --> 00:49:33,040
This is what I was saying 
earlier on. 

1013
00:49:33,040 --> 00:49:36,120
Like they don't explain how the 
heist is going to going to go 

1014
00:49:36,120 --> 00:49:37,400
down. 
Like one of the things I really 

1015
00:49:37,400 --> 00:49:39,840
enjoyed about the first Mission 
Impossible and you see again in 

1016
00:49:39,840 --> 00:49:42,920
later ones, I think, I think 
Ghost Protocol does one where 

1017
00:49:42,920 --> 00:49:46,080
they explain how the heist 
should go down and you see them 

1018
00:49:46,080 --> 00:49:48,280
going through all the steps so 
that when the heist doesn't go 

1019
00:49:48,280 --> 00:49:51,400
to plan and they're floundering 
and having to like think on 

1020
00:49:51,400 --> 00:49:53,800
their feet and do incredible 
stunts to to make it work. 

1021
00:49:54,440 --> 00:49:57,080
We know how that deviated from 
what was was going to happen. 

1022
00:49:57,960 --> 00:50:00,200
I think the reason why this we 
don't get one of these on this 

1023
00:50:00,360 --> 00:50:02,680
on is because the heist pretty 
much goes to plan. 

1024
00:50:04,040 --> 00:50:06,360
So it's pretty good. 
I guess that's the reason why. 

1025
00:50:06,360 --> 00:50:07,960
But they don't explain what 
they're going to do either. 

1026
00:50:07,960 --> 00:50:10,000
They just kind of go we're going
to go to the Vatican and there's

1027
00:50:10,000 --> 00:50:13,600
loads of cameras and stuff. 
But what I do like about this 

1028
00:50:13,600 --> 00:50:16,520
sequence is, again, attention to
detail. 

1029
00:50:16,520 --> 00:50:19,280
They do lots of little things 
that they didn't need to do. 

1030
00:50:19,280 --> 00:50:21,760
So like we see it later in the 
movie and we see it here as 

1031
00:50:21,760 --> 00:50:24,120
well. 
You see Ethan on the scene like 

1032
00:50:24,120 --> 00:50:25,640
measuring the height of the 
walls. 

1033
00:50:25,640 --> 00:50:29,440
But we get, so I'll explain it. 
So Ethan and Declan are in a 

1034
00:50:29,520 --> 00:50:32,880
like that's not UPS, it's GGL or
something like Korea Courier 

1035
00:50:32,880 --> 00:50:34,920
van. 
And they pretend that the van 

1036
00:50:34,920 --> 00:50:36,800
breaks down, blocking a 
thoroughfare. 

1037
00:50:38,040 --> 00:50:40,480
So they have a little smoke 
machine in the bonnet that emits

1038
00:50:40,480 --> 00:50:42,640
smoke. 
And we got a funny sequence 

1039
00:50:42,640 --> 00:50:44,320
where. 
Just a big louder Italian 

1040
00:50:44,400 --> 00:50:46,320
argument. 
Yeah, Jonathan Rhys Myers and 

1041
00:50:46,320 --> 00:50:48,480
Tom Cruise are doing a big 
louder Italian argument with 

1042
00:50:48,480 --> 00:50:51,200
the, with the disticulations and
the vocal tambour and 

1043
00:50:51,200 --> 00:50:57,520
everything. 
And it's like, OK, like all that

1044
00:50:57,520 --> 00:51:00,760
stuff, Bully. 
It's just like, OK, cool. 

1045
00:51:01,160 --> 00:51:02,760
Yeah, that's fine. 
Yeah, OK, because you're doing 

1046
00:51:02,760 --> 00:51:03,960
it in the language. 
I guess that's all right. 

1047
00:51:04,800 --> 00:51:06,600
And everyone's like, and all the
cars are stopped behind them. 

1048
00:51:06,600 --> 00:51:12,360
They're all doing the same thing
like doing that fuck you like OK

1049
00:51:12,440 --> 00:51:15,400
and very fun. 
I'm I'm probably bad for doing 

1050
00:51:15,400 --> 00:51:20,320
that. 
So it buys enough time for for 

1051
00:51:20,320 --> 00:51:23,400
Tom Cruise. 
To we're going to send you to a 

1052
00:51:23,400 --> 00:51:26,480
cultural awareness training now.
It's being Italian, a protected 

1053
00:51:26,480 --> 00:51:28,880
category. 
OK, Yeah, it probably is. 

1054
00:51:28,880 --> 00:51:33,480
Ethan Hunt scales the wall, the 
exterior wall of the compound 

1055
00:51:33,480 --> 00:51:35,360
that is the Vatican. 
It's quite cool how they did 

1056
00:51:35,360 --> 00:51:36,520
this. 
So when they were filming it, 

1057
00:51:36,520 --> 00:51:39,200
they basically built a big wall.
On one side of it is the big 

1058
00:51:39,200 --> 00:51:41,680
stately home that's meant to be 
like filling in for the Vatican.

1059
00:51:42,160 --> 00:51:44,920
On the other side of it, they 
kind of redressed to be like an 

1060
00:51:44,920 --> 00:51:48,440
Italian St in Rome. 
And basically what they do is 

1061
00:51:48,440 --> 00:51:50,200
they kind of redress the same 
bit of wall going up and up and 

1062
00:51:50,200 --> 00:51:51,640
down. 
So it looks different each time 

1063
00:51:51,640 --> 00:51:53,600
they do it. 
So when he gets down on the wall

1064
00:51:53,600 --> 00:51:55,960
on the other side, it's the it's
the side he actually went up on 

1065
00:51:55,960 --> 00:51:57,880
the first side redressed. 
Very, very cool. 

1066
00:51:58,080 --> 00:52:01,240
Anyway, he gets this wall by 
firing like some kind of 

1067
00:52:01,240 --> 00:52:02,680
grappling hoop thing a bit and 
runs up it. 

1068
00:52:02,720 --> 00:52:05,880
And then for no reason 
whatsoever, he lies flat on the 

1069
00:52:05,880 --> 00:52:09,360
wall, turns to the camera as a 
zooming crashes me into him, and

1070
00:52:09,360 --> 00:52:12,240
goes Humpty Dumpty 7 the wall, 
which is just one of the 

1071
00:52:12,240 --> 00:52:14,160
greatest lines of any movie 
ever. 

1072
00:52:15,280 --> 00:52:17,120
Like the music built do do do do
do. 

1073
00:52:17,640 --> 00:52:21,120
Humpty Dumpty sat in the wall. 
So it's fucking amazing. 

1074
00:52:21,920 --> 00:52:25,360
In the period of about 10 
minutes, we've gone from his 

1075
00:52:25,360 --> 00:52:29,440
beloved prodigy dying right in 
front of him to him running up 

1076
00:52:29,440 --> 00:52:33,320
the wall of the Vatican, looking
bang into the camera and then 

1077
00:52:33,320 --> 00:52:36,320
doing a verbal stem. 
My only disappointment is that 

1078
00:52:36,560 --> 00:52:38,520
when they got out of the van, 
like neither of them had like 

1079
00:52:38,520 --> 00:52:41,080
big comedy moustaches. 
Like I really wanted them both 

1080
00:52:41,080 --> 00:52:44,960
to like, like Mario and Luigi. 
Like that would have been so 

1081
00:52:44,960 --> 00:52:47,200
much better. 
And like, the camera just like 

1082
00:52:47,200 --> 00:52:50,440
pads around to say the like, cab
of the vans full of like, empty 

1083
00:52:50,440 --> 00:52:54,240
fucking pizza boxes. 
And this was like, no one's like

1084
00:52:54,480 --> 00:52:57,480
Catholic, like Agon's and rosary
beads hanging from the fucking 

1085
00:52:58,320 --> 00:53:00,280
rearview. 
America's It's Italy, baby. 

1086
00:53:00,600 --> 00:53:02,560
So I'm just imagine getting 
really annoyed at some like 

1087
00:53:02,560 --> 00:53:04,560
snapping pasta as they put it 
into the pan. 

1088
00:53:04,720 --> 00:53:07,080
We're doing this thing again 
when we make up a guy then got 

1089
00:53:07,080 --> 00:53:09,560
mad about him. 
So Tom, Tom's on top of the 

1090
00:53:09,560 --> 00:53:10,960
wall, Humpty Dumpty's on top of 
the wall. 

1091
00:53:11,800 --> 00:53:12,840
He does a really cool thing 
here. 

1092
00:53:12,840 --> 00:53:15,680
So, So what he does is he has 
to, there's a, there's a camera 

1093
00:53:15,680 --> 00:53:19,800
nearby which he has to obscure 
so he can walk into the path of 

1094
00:53:19,800 --> 00:53:20,840
it. 
So he does. 

1095
00:53:20,960 --> 00:53:23,160
So he gets his little Game Boy 
camera out. 

1096
00:53:23,760 --> 00:53:26,480
That's so fucking cool. 
And takes a picture from the 

1097
00:53:26,480 --> 00:53:29,000
angle of the of the camera. 
Prints it off on his little Game

1098
00:53:29,000 --> 00:53:32,920
Boy camera printer and then and 
then puts it in front of the 

1099
00:53:32,920 --> 00:53:34,160
camera and then rewires the 
camera up. 

1100
00:53:34,160 --> 00:53:36,360
So it was like out for 30 
seconds and the guy's like, oh, 

1101
00:53:36,360 --> 00:53:39,360
the camera's broken and then it 
comes back on again and it's 

1102
00:53:39,360 --> 00:53:40,800
doing the whole thing where it's
looking at a still image. 

1103
00:53:40,960 --> 00:53:43,120
Very cool. 
On top of that, he's uses a 

1104
00:53:43,120 --> 00:53:46,760
little laser range Finder and 
like dangles it over the side of

1105
00:53:46,760 --> 00:53:49,160
the wall so you can see exactly 
how high the wall is. 

1106
00:53:49,440 --> 00:53:52,600
So then he can set up in advance
his little repelling line so 

1107
00:53:52,600 --> 00:53:54,400
that it stops before he hits the
the bottom. 

1108
00:53:54,400 --> 00:53:55,480
So he can just fall off the 
wall. 

1109
00:53:56,120 --> 00:53:57,920
And we didn't need that that a 
little bit where he gets the 

1110
00:53:57,920 --> 00:53:59,480
laser and goes and then measures
it. 

1111
00:53:59,480 --> 00:54:01,440
And then you see the measurement
like you could have. 

1112
00:54:01,600 --> 00:54:04,160
We could have assumed they did 
that in pre planning, but we 

1113
00:54:04,160 --> 00:54:05,800
didn't have to. 
But we but we seemed to it and 

1114
00:54:05,800 --> 00:54:06,760
it's cool. 
Yeah. 

1115
00:54:07,240 --> 00:54:09,600
So he falls off the side of the 
wall, does a little homage to 

1116
00:54:09,600 --> 00:54:13,160
the Langley heist where he kind 
of like does the fall down and 

1117
00:54:13,160 --> 00:54:15,920
does the thing where he's like a
waves around over the ground and

1118
00:54:15,920 --> 00:54:17,400
doesn't hit the ground. 
Very cool. 

1119
00:54:17,400 --> 00:54:20,480
Fun fact, they did a few takes 
of it and the rappelling wire 

1120
00:54:20,480 --> 00:54:22,920
went down a bit too slow. 
So they tried to gradually speed

1121
00:54:22,920 --> 00:54:25,040
it up and they did one take 
where it went really, really 

1122
00:54:25,040 --> 00:54:27,760
fast by accident. 
And Tom Cruise made contact with

1123
00:54:27,760 --> 00:54:29,960
the ground and like his Dick off
the ground. 

1124
00:54:30,160 --> 00:54:33,480
And then and everyone was like, 
Oh my God, Tom Cruise hit his 

1125
00:54:33,480 --> 00:54:34,440
Dick on the ground. 
Oh my God. 

1126
00:54:34,520 --> 00:54:36,280
And then Tom was like really, 
really happy about like, oh, 

1127
00:54:36,400 --> 00:54:37,720
that was so much fun. 
That was so cool. 

1128
00:54:37,720 --> 00:54:41,440
I'm going to do it again. 
It's the fastest anyone's ever 

1129
00:54:41,440 --> 00:54:42,640
fucked the ground before and 
lived. 

1130
00:54:46,240 --> 00:54:48,360
Oh my God. 
Then he then he sends his little

1131
00:54:48,360 --> 00:54:49,560
clothes back up the repel line 
again. 

1132
00:54:49,560 --> 00:54:51,800
All of that takes his, takes his
overalls off and sends the 

1133
00:54:51,800 --> 00:54:53,400
overalls up on the line again. 
Yeah. 

1134
00:54:53,440 --> 00:54:55,640
And then the next thing we see 
is him like, dressed like a 

1135
00:54:55,640 --> 00:54:58,680
cassock and everything, like an 
old, like, like a priest need a 

1136
00:54:58,680 --> 00:55:00,760
little hat and everything on. 
It's like you're the least 

1137
00:55:00,760 --> 00:55:02,360
convincing priest I've ever 
seen. 

1138
00:55:02,360 --> 00:55:04,840
Yeah, that's, and that's what he
wanted to do with his life. 

1139
00:55:04,840 --> 00:55:07,000
He was a seminary student when 
he was a young lad. 

1140
00:55:07,000 --> 00:55:09,120
He was headed, he was. 
He was headed for holy orders 

1141
00:55:09,120 --> 00:55:12,840
before he decided Actor Max. 
It's wild, isn't it? 

1142
00:55:13,120 --> 00:55:14,800
Yeah. 
God, imagine the world we would 

1143
00:55:14,800 --> 00:55:16,840
have had. 
Imagine taking confession or 

1144
00:55:16,840 --> 00:55:18,520
giving confession to to Tom 
Cruise. 

1145
00:55:18,920 --> 00:55:21,000
You'd just be so enthusiastic 
about us. 

1146
00:55:21,400 --> 00:55:25,120
You'd love me. 
It's like forgive your Father 

1147
00:55:25,120 --> 00:55:27,520
for our sin, and I love that 
about you, you know? 

1148
00:55:28,560 --> 00:55:31,920
You sinned, you know. 
I've done that as well. 

1149
00:55:31,920 --> 00:55:33,160
Cool, cool, cool, cool, cool. 
Yes. 

1150
00:55:33,160 --> 00:55:37,360
So he's smuggling into the the 
area I guess now having done a 

1151
00:55:37,360 --> 00:55:40,000
costume change. 
Meanwhile, Declan drives the van

1152
00:55:40,000 --> 00:55:43,360
to like a public part of the 
Vatican and parks it randomly 

1153
00:55:44,120 --> 00:55:45,760
somewhere that you definitely 
can't park a van. 

1154
00:55:46,080 --> 00:55:50,600
He does a costume change into 
CVS to be like a journalist or 

1155
00:55:50,720 --> 00:55:52,440
tourists with a camera. 
Something like that. 

1156
00:55:52,440 --> 00:55:54,240
Yeah, Yeah, I'm. 
Trying to remember what, like 

1157
00:55:54,240 --> 00:55:56,760
Declan's function is. 
So I was thinking about this. 

1158
00:55:56,960 --> 00:55:59,080
Imagine that you could make, 
like a short film about a heist 

1159
00:55:59,080 --> 00:56:01,600
going on, but it only follows 
the point of view of, like, one 

1160
00:56:01,600 --> 00:56:03,080
person. 
And that one person has such, 

1161
00:56:03,080 --> 00:56:05,880
like, a nugatory job in it that 
they're they're sat there having

1162
00:56:05,880 --> 00:56:07,360
a conversation about completely 
different stuff. 

1163
00:56:07,360 --> 00:56:09,120
And then they do that one little
bit and they go back to having a

1164
00:56:09,120 --> 00:56:09,760
conversation. 
Yeah. 

1165
00:56:10,440 --> 00:56:12,600
That's why that's why I imagined
because there's a whole bit 

1166
00:56:12,600 --> 00:56:13,680
here. 
We'll get into it. 

1167
00:56:13,680 --> 00:56:15,880
But like, there's a whole bit 
where Declan's on his own in the

1168
00:56:15,880 --> 00:56:19,040
Vatican, just like, yeah, 
lowering a body down like a 

1169
00:56:19,040 --> 00:56:21,760
tower. 
Like there's a huge amount of 

1170
00:56:21,760 --> 00:56:24,360
slapstick potential there that 
that was not was not plumped. 

1171
00:56:24,560 --> 00:56:28,760
Luther is also hacking his way 
into into the the Vatican 

1172
00:56:29,040 --> 00:56:30,320
underwater. 
Isn't he? 

1173
00:56:30,720 --> 00:56:33,280
Yeah, he's yeah. 
He's in a school bag here and 

1174
00:56:33,280 --> 00:56:35,240
he's swimming through the 
Vatican sewers. 

1175
00:56:35,800 --> 00:56:37,800
Yeah. 
I love this. 

1176
00:56:37,880 --> 00:56:40,760
Like yeah, because they've all 
just picked 1 normal way to get 

1177
00:56:40,760 --> 00:56:42,760
in, but yeah, fine. 
So. 

1178
00:56:42,960 --> 00:56:47,280
So he's underground and he's 
like setting up explosives to 

1179
00:56:47,360 --> 00:56:51,560
like get away from the sewer 
into the main Vatican building, 

1180
00:56:51,560 --> 00:56:54,480
I guess that they're going into.
Is it like Saint Peters Basilica

1181
00:56:54,480 --> 00:56:57,080
or something mental like that? 
Saint Peters Yeah, yeah, I'm 

1182
00:56:57,120 --> 00:57:00,440
really glad that the Irish guy 
isn't the demolitions guy in 

1183
00:57:00,440 --> 00:57:02,120
this. 
He's not the explosive guy. 

1184
00:57:02,120 --> 00:57:05,160
Because it boils my piss, It 
really does. 

1185
00:57:05,840 --> 00:57:08,560
I mean going back to fucking 
Sheamus who a car bomb in the 

1186
00:57:08,560 --> 00:57:13,720
fucking Harry Potter films would
say you're a story arc is to be 

1187
00:57:13,720 --> 00:57:17,120
Irish a bit dumb accidentally 
blow shit upset things on fire 

1188
00:57:17,280 --> 00:57:21,040
and the big final final her all 
the film blow a bridge up 

1189
00:57:21,080 --> 00:57:24,400
positive positive representation
for the sons of Ireland. 

1190
00:57:24,920 --> 00:57:27,360
JK roller man, do you remember 
when she was asked on Twitter if

1191
00:57:27,360 --> 00:57:31,080
there were any Jewish Wizards 
and she just like responded? 

1192
00:57:31,080 --> 00:57:32,800
But it shouldn't even say like 
hi, thanks for asking. 

1193
00:57:32,800 --> 00:57:33,720
Oh, that's an interesting 
question. 

1194
00:57:33,720 --> 00:57:36,480
She just went like fucking 
something Goldstein Jewish was 

1195
00:57:36,720 --> 00:57:40,200
that was it? 
And it's like, what the fuck? 

1196
00:57:40,560 --> 00:57:44,680
What the fuck, man? 
So I'm just Maggie Q, right. 

1197
00:57:44,680 --> 00:57:46,840
So, Maggie. 
Rules up in the Lambo baby. 

1198
00:57:46,840 --> 00:57:51,280
Yeah, Maggie Q, Rules of the 
Lambo and I'll put I'll put the 

1199
00:57:51,280 --> 00:57:53,120
video into the video in the pod 
here. 

1200
00:57:53,320 --> 00:57:58,000
So Maggie Q couldn't drive and I
don't know what her agent told 

1201
00:57:58,000 --> 00:58:02,400
Paula Wagner when she was cast 
because she says she couldn't 

1202
00:58:02,400 --> 00:58:03,840
drive. 
And I went from not driving last

1203
00:58:03,840 --> 00:58:05,960
week to this week driving a 
Lambo on the making of. 

1204
00:58:06,520 --> 00:58:09,680
And what happened was she said 
that she was wearing, and I 

1205
00:58:09,680 --> 00:58:12,800
don't know why she had to do 
this, but she was wearing like 

1206
00:58:13,000 --> 00:58:16,320
high heels obviously for like 
her scenes, but they've got her 

1207
00:58:16,320 --> 00:58:18,360
in the high heels, which is 
driving the car as well. 

1208
00:58:19,120 --> 00:58:20,920
And she says. 
That the because there was a 

1209
00:58:20,920 --> 00:58:22,640
script passed by Quentin 
Tarantino. 

1210
00:58:22,640 --> 00:58:25,080
Oh. 
God, don't talk to me. 

1211
00:58:25,080 --> 00:58:26,920
I watched that fucking scene 
from Crimson Tide the other day 

1212
00:58:27,400 --> 00:58:29,480
where they talk about the silver
surf and I got angry all over 

1213
00:58:29,480 --> 00:58:32,520
again. 
So, yeah, Maggie Q, she was 

1214
00:58:32,520 --> 00:58:36,200
driving, she's parking up this 
land though in in her high heels

1215
00:58:36,200 --> 00:58:39,240
that the the high heel itself 
got stuck on the accelerator and

1216
00:58:39,240 --> 00:58:40,920
she couldn't, she got like her 
foot got stuck and she couldn't 

1217
00:58:40,920 --> 00:58:42,680
move it. 
So she's driving this like 

1218
00:58:42,720 --> 00:58:46,920
$350,000 car and just like bumps
it into a bunch of other cars on

1219
00:58:46,920 --> 00:58:49,720
her first day on set of like her
first day filming. 

1220
00:58:49,760 --> 00:58:50,800
Incredible. 
Yeah. 

1221
00:58:50,920 --> 00:58:53,720
Brilliant. 
I love everything about that. 

1222
00:58:53,720 --> 00:58:55,200
Story love. 
I love that story. 

1223
00:58:55,520 --> 00:58:56,480
Anyway, good. 
Good enough. 

1224
00:58:56,760 --> 00:58:59,320
Left gassing at Monkey Q, right.
Bosh, Maxon. 

1225
00:58:59,760 --> 00:59:00,720
Bosh, Maxon. 
Right. 

1226
00:59:00,720 --> 00:59:02,160
OK, cool. 
So she's there. 

1227
00:59:02,160 --> 00:59:03,960
She's in this knockout dress, 
head turning. 

1228
00:59:03,960 --> 00:59:05,400
And it does. 
It turns people's heads. 

1229
00:59:05,520 --> 00:59:07,880
Yeah, did you notice that one 
extra checking her out? 

1230
00:59:08,240 --> 00:59:10,640
Yeah, he's like. 
Tom Edwards. 

1231
00:59:10,680 --> 00:59:11,640
His eyes aren't painted. 
On. 

1232
00:59:13,000 --> 00:59:17,800
Her role in this is Owen Davian 
has come to meet a buyer and she

1233
00:59:17,800 --> 00:59:21,280
does the classic spy movie thing
of like walk up to them and 

1234
00:59:21,280 --> 00:59:26,000
spilling a drink all over him. 
Classic hitman stuff as to to 

1235
00:59:26,000 --> 00:59:27,720
get him to go to a bathroom. 
Perfect. 

1236
00:59:27,880 --> 00:59:29,480
Love it. 
It works like a treat. 

1237
00:59:30,560 --> 00:59:35,160
And what is happening 
concurrently is your boy, your 

1238
00:59:35,160 --> 00:59:36,640
boy. 
Ethan Hunt has met up with 

1239
00:59:36,640 --> 00:59:38,760
Luther. 
Luther's brought his 3D printer 

1240
00:59:38,760 --> 00:59:39,640
along. 
Yeah. 

1241
00:59:40,120 --> 00:59:43,800
And has 3D printed a perfect 
Philip Seymour Hoffman mask. 

1242
00:59:44,360 --> 00:59:46,120
Yeah, because. 
The because the photos that 

1243
00:59:46,160 --> 00:59:48,680
Maggie Q's been grabbing. 
That's right, yeah. 

1244
00:59:48,680 --> 00:59:51,120
And so they make this, this 
Philip Seymour Hoffman disguise 

1245
00:59:51,160 --> 00:59:53,760
for for Ethan Hunt to wear. 
He's completely changed into it.

1246
00:59:53,880 --> 00:59:55,560
The only thing that he hasn't 
got squared away yet is the 

1247
00:59:55,560 --> 00:59:57,360
voice. 
There's a little AI voice 

1248
00:59:57,360 --> 01:00:01,520
modular thing that has to hear. 
The the the the person's voice 

1249
01:00:01,520 --> 01:00:05,240
say a specific set of phrases 
that presumably capture every 

1250
01:00:05,240 --> 01:00:08,080
vocal intonation required. 
Yeah, it's like a specific poem 

1251
01:00:08,080 --> 01:00:10,360
that captures all the different,
like phonemes and stuff like 

1252
01:00:10,440 --> 01:00:11,360
that. 
Exactly. 

1253
01:00:11,360 --> 01:00:12,720
Yeah. 
So that's the only thing they're

1254
01:00:12,720 --> 01:00:14,840
waiting on. 
But Owen Davian goes to the 

1255
01:00:14,840 --> 01:00:18,600
bathroom in on his own, and 
lurking behind a little grate on

1256
01:00:18,600 --> 01:00:22,760
the floor, which was not caught 
by his security, is a a perfect 

1257
01:00:22,920 --> 01:00:25,040
Owen Davian clone in the form of
Ethan Hunt. 

1258
01:00:25,560 --> 01:00:28,720
Hunts knocks out. 
Did we get some of the ground? 

1259
01:00:29,400 --> 01:00:32,720
And then he forces them to read 
that little, that little script 

1260
01:00:33,040 --> 01:00:37,560
for the voice modulator to take.
Meanwhile, the security is 

1261
01:00:37,560 --> 01:00:39,560
coming very shortly. 
So they need to get rid of the 

1262
01:00:39,560 --> 01:00:41,040
body. 
And there's a whole thing where 

1263
01:00:41,040 --> 01:00:43,560
I think it's. 
A deck was holding the door kind

1264
01:00:43,560 --> 01:00:46,440
of kind of no downs behind the 
door. 

1265
01:00:46,440 --> 01:00:51,200
Security guards got a door open 
and because the AI systems still

1266
01:00:51,200 --> 01:00:55,360
trying like kind of work out how
he speaks like he's been told in

1267
01:00:55,360 --> 01:00:58,960
in in Asia stickle they're like,
oh, you've got another 10 

1268
01:00:58,960 --> 01:01:01,560
seconds, 20 seconds, whatever. 
So rather than Tom Cruise trying

1269
01:01:01,560 --> 01:01:08,720
to speak, he's just it's. 
Tough ages. 

1270
01:01:08,720 --> 01:01:09,000
Yeah. 
Yeah. 

1271
01:01:09,280 --> 01:01:11,200
And then eventually he's like, 
what do you want? 

1272
01:01:11,200 --> 01:01:13,360
Go away. 
Yeah, leave me alone. 

1273
01:01:14,280 --> 01:01:16,720
Then like, he's out, isn't he? 
Like he's out of the bathroom 

1274
01:01:16,720 --> 01:01:19,880
and yeah, he goes up to him and 
she's like, oh man, I'm sorry, I

1275
01:01:19,880 --> 01:01:21,880
got why on your shirt. 
Want to fuck about it? 

1276
01:01:22,360 --> 01:01:24,240
Yeah, exactly. 
So he's So what, what, what what

1277
01:01:24,240 --> 01:01:27,920
they've done is they've stolen 
Owen Davian's briefcase, which 

1278
01:01:27,920 --> 01:01:29,520
which was unattended in the 
bathroom. 

1279
01:01:30,320 --> 01:01:32,480
So he's taken that and he's 
posing as Owen Davian. 

1280
01:01:33,200 --> 01:01:37,040
He leaves the bathroom is 
propositioned by by Mikey Q He 

1281
01:01:37,040 --> 01:01:38,880
says through security, I'll go 
off with her. 

1282
01:01:38,880 --> 01:01:41,600
You follow in the car. 
So he gets in the Lambo. 

1283
01:01:41,600 --> 01:01:45,400
Lambo drives away, parks over a 
sewer grate. 

1284
01:01:46,000 --> 01:01:49,160
They open the bottom of the car 
and escape through the sewer 

1285
01:01:49,160 --> 01:01:52,040
grate, having handed off like 
the briefcase to to stickle and 

1286
01:01:52,040 --> 01:01:54,240
all that. 
And then once they're 

1287
01:01:54,240 --> 01:01:56,680
underground, they deny at the 
car, blowing up the car and 

1288
01:01:56,680 --> 01:01:58,840
everyone thinks that Owen 
Davian's dead and killed by car 

1289
01:01:58,840 --> 01:02:00,360
bomb. 
And then we got a really cool 

1290
01:02:00,360 --> 01:02:03,240
like, just like smash cut to 
them, like rounding a corner on 

1291
01:02:03,240 --> 01:02:06,360
a speedboat, like flinging, 
flinging, flinging up the up the

1292
01:02:06,360 --> 01:02:08,400
tiger, just like looking cool as
fuck. 

1293
01:02:09,080 --> 01:02:12,680
I just wanted like a mission 
complete like overlaid on that 

1294
01:02:12,680 --> 01:02:14,360
point and like like a score 
count. 

1295
01:02:14,360 --> 01:02:18,240
I just like just it goes up like
10,000 or something and it's 

1296
01:02:18,240 --> 01:02:20,160
like. 
SS rank. 

1297
01:02:21,280 --> 01:02:25,240
SS rank perfect run and all like
the twitch comments. 

1298
01:02:25,240 --> 01:02:30,880
Go like WW suit. 
Only Silent Assassin car 

1299
01:02:30,880 --> 01:02:33,480
deloaded mill. 
Cameras detected Mill. 

1300
01:02:33,560 --> 01:02:37,880
Yeah, walls sat on one. 
One Humpty Dumpty's one. 

1301
01:02:38,080 --> 01:02:39,960
Yeah. 
You've unlocked the rubber duck.

1302
01:02:40,800 --> 01:02:44,320
Explosive rubber duck, Yeah. 
You've unlocked the Humpty 

1303
01:02:44,320 --> 01:02:47,480
Dumpty skin. 
You've unlocked the the egg 

1304
01:02:47,480 --> 01:02:50,400
decoy. 
You just, you just fucking. 

1305
01:02:50,520 --> 01:02:53,600
It's fucking hit manning around 
in the background dressed like 

1306
01:02:53,600 --> 01:02:56,160
Humpty Dumpty. 
That would be that was right. 

1307
01:02:56,160 --> 01:02:58,960
OK, If this was a little, that 
would be like the costume that 

1308
01:02:58,960 --> 01:03:01,960
you can find that makes the 
level stupidly hard because each

1309
01:03:02,040 --> 01:03:04,120
ship, each ship my level has a 
bone costume you can find that 

1310
01:03:04,120 --> 01:03:06,360
makes it super hard. 
Like there's the fucking like a 

1311
01:03:06,360 --> 01:03:07,680
man. 
There's like the suit of armour 

1312
01:03:07,800 --> 01:03:10,480
in Sapienza. 
The plate, It's a plague Dr 

1313
01:03:10,480 --> 01:03:13,480
Sorry, there's a plague Dr one 
and there's so many. 

1314
01:03:13,480 --> 01:03:15,440
Yeah, there's like a samurai one
in Hokkaido. 

1315
01:03:15,560 --> 01:03:18,040
Yeah, OK, yeah, cool. 
That would be the giant big egg 

1316
01:03:18,040 --> 01:03:20,320
Man 1 would be the one for this,
the vacuum. 

1317
01:03:20,560 --> 01:03:22,480
So cool. 
Oh, by the way, before we leave 

1318
01:03:22,480 --> 01:03:25,000
the Vatican, has anyone played 
Engineer Jones? 

1319
01:03:25,000 --> 01:03:28,360
And the Great Circle is 
basically a Vatican infiltration

1320
01:03:28,360 --> 01:03:30,200
simulator. 
The whole the whole first field 

1321
01:03:30,200 --> 01:03:32,400
of the game, as you like in the 
Vatican, dressed as a priest, 

1322
01:03:32,400 --> 01:03:35,000
finding relics and bombing 
around and punching, punching 

1323
01:03:35,000 --> 01:03:36,280
Nazis. 
It's great. 

1324
01:03:37,280 --> 01:03:41,040
I love, I love like Maggie Q's 
recalcitrance to blow up such an

1325
01:03:41,040 --> 01:03:43,880
attractive car as well. 
I would have been kind of in the

1326
01:03:43,880 --> 01:03:45,920
same boat at that point. 
It's like they should have 

1327
01:03:45,920 --> 01:03:48,960
infiltrated in a beat ass Fiat 
500. 

1328
01:03:50,000 --> 01:03:51,520
I can just say there's a lot in 
this movie. 

1329
01:03:51,520 --> 01:03:55,120
There's a lot of there's a lot 
of very quick and loose handling

1330
01:03:55,120 --> 01:03:56,120
of explosives. 
They are. 

1331
01:03:56,560 --> 01:03:58,120
Because that's because they 
haven't got an Irish guy 

1332
01:03:58,120 --> 01:04:00,200
running, that's why. 
They are very good. 

1333
01:04:00,720 --> 01:04:02,560
They are lobbing those things 
all over the place. 

1334
01:04:02,560 --> 01:04:05,400
They are just, yeah. 
Yeah. 

1335
01:04:06,200 --> 01:04:08,960
Anyway, cool. 
So after landing, Ethan learns 

1336
01:04:08,960 --> 01:04:12,720
that Lindsay's microdot is a 
warning about Davian and IMF 

1337
01:04:12,720 --> 01:04:15,520
Director Theodore Brussel, which
is Laurence Fishburne. 

1338
01:04:16,320 --> 01:04:19,120
They are in a convoy taking them
across the Chesapeake Bay 

1339
01:04:19,120 --> 01:04:20,800
Bridge. 
So they're back in, I think, 

1340
01:04:20,800 --> 01:04:22,160
Virginia. 
I get the impression that the 

1341
01:04:22,160 --> 01:04:24,280
IMF headquarters is in Langley, 
Virginia, but they just don't 

1342
01:04:24,280 --> 01:04:28,320
say it. 
And the convoy, which has 

1343
01:04:28,320 --> 01:04:32,280
obviously the captured Davian in
it, is ambushed by mercenaries 

1344
01:04:32,320 --> 01:04:35,080
who extract Davian. 
This is a mental sequence. 

1345
01:04:35,080 --> 01:04:37,760
So when they were filming it, 
they, they built a section of 

1346
01:04:37,760 --> 01:04:40,560
bridge in like California and 
shot it there. 

1347
01:04:41,680 --> 01:04:45,240
And they only used like a few 
location shots to go establish 

1348
01:04:45,240 --> 01:04:48,240
the the water and everything, 
but the rest of it is all from 

1349
01:04:48,240 --> 01:04:51,640
the flat. 
So yeah, a helicopter comes and 

1350
01:04:51,840 --> 01:04:54,840
there's also a Reaper drone or 
put a drone or some kind of cool

1351
01:04:54,840 --> 01:05:00,480
drone flying around firing 
missiles at them. 22,000 and six

1352
01:05:00,480 --> 01:05:03,280
So early on the on the drone 
boom. 

1353
01:05:03,760 --> 01:05:08,560
Yeah, I mean it's got a CGI then
afterburner, so like that. 

1354
01:05:08,560 --> 01:05:11,360
So they're not quite sure how 
drones work at this point 

1355
01:05:11,360 --> 01:05:13,760
because those ones are cause 
propeller driven, but. 

1356
01:05:15,760 --> 01:05:18,360
But yeah, the one big stunt from
this movie that people talk 

1357
01:05:18,360 --> 01:05:23,440
about is the rocket that that 
chases Ethan and blows up a car.

1358
01:05:23,680 --> 01:05:28,000
And then the blast from the the 
car knocks Ethan into the air 

1359
01:05:28,080 --> 01:05:31,960
sideways, smashing into a car. 
That's that's the cool, that's 

1360
01:05:31,960 --> 01:05:33,840
the cool shot. 
And it was like the big the big 

1361
01:05:33,840 --> 01:05:35,280
stunt they talked about at the 
time for this one. 

1362
01:05:35,600 --> 01:05:39,680
Looking back, compared to the 
other Mission movies, this seems

1363
01:05:39,680 --> 01:05:41,720
kind of quaint. 
Yeah, but it's. 

1364
01:05:41,720 --> 01:05:44,040
But it's still a perfectly 
really good stunt, I think. 

1365
01:05:44,040 --> 01:05:47,000
I think a stunt that any 
stuntman would be happy to have 

1366
01:05:47,000 --> 01:05:50,920
on the resume, yeah, is a really
cool looking stunt and he sells 

1367
01:05:50,920 --> 01:05:52,800
it really well. 
Yeah, like I mean the thought I 

1368
01:05:52,800 --> 01:05:56,520
had was, yeah, this is this is 
quite mild as opposed to the to 

1369
01:05:56,520 --> 01:05:57,880
the stunts you see in later 
films. 

1370
01:05:57,880 --> 01:06:01,000
I mean, the fact that the fact 
that we're using sort of behind 

1371
01:06:01,000 --> 01:06:04,280
the scenes work for one of the 
big stunts for I think the 

1372
01:06:04,280 --> 01:06:08,400
second or third last film as a 
trailer, just like behind the 

1373
01:06:08,400 --> 01:06:10,840
scenes footage of that was being
shown before films at the 

1374
01:06:10,840 --> 01:06:12,800
cinema. 
Oh, are you talking about the 

1375
01:06:13,360 --> 01:06:16,080
dead reckoning bike? 
Jump off the off the Cliff. 

1376
01:06:16,080 --> 01:06:17,440
Yes, I am. 
I am. 

1377
01:06:17,440 --> 01:06:19,600
Yeah, yeah. 
And like when you say how like 

1378
01:06:19,640 --> 01:06:23,400
outlandish and how crazy and. 
And there was, there was one 

1379
01:06:23,400 --> 01:06:25,920
with the Burj Al Khalifa at one 
point in one of the films, I 

1380
01:06:25,920 --> 01:06:26,560
think. 
And that's. 

1381
01:06:26,560 --> 01:06:28,000
That's the next one after this 
goes. 

1382
01:06:28,040 --> 01:06:29,560
Right, right. 
So that's when it goes. 

1383
01:06:29,880 --> 01:06:33,920
Yeah, since this one does look 
like looks a bit mild compared 

1384
01:06:33,920 --> 01:06:36,480
to what we're doing now, but a 
really cool scene. 

1385
01:06:36,640 --> 01:06:39,000
Really excited. 
Really, this is this is one of 

1386
01:06:39,000 --> 01:06:44,360
the runniest films he's done. 
I think he probably runs more 

1387
01:06:44,360 --> 01:06:45,960
than he walks in this film. 
Right. 

1388
01:06:45,960 --> 01:06:48,960
So on the subject of stunts, 
then we'll, we'll, I mean, we're

1389
01:06:48,960 --> 01:06:51,960
going to come back to this. 
So in every movie since there's 

1390
01:06:51,960 --> 01:06:54,920
a, there's a tentpole stunt that
is like talked about in the 

1391
01:06:54,920 --> 01:06:57,560
press up to the beginning of it.
The next one is the Burj 

1392
01:06:57,560 --> 01:06:59,880
Khalifa. 
And after that is the clinging 

1393
01:06:59,880 --> 01:07:02,800
to the side of the A400 as it 
takes off. 

1394
01:07:03,360 --> 01:07:05,320
The next one to that is the 
bike. 

1395
01:07:05,520 --> 01:07:08,040
No, sorry, it's Fallout. 
So it's it's bungee jumping off 

1396
01:07:08,040 --> 01:07:10,480
a helicopter. 
And the one after that is the 

1397
01:07:10,480 --> 01:07:12,080
bicycle jump that you talked 
about just then. 

1398
01:07:12,840 --> 01:07:15,040
And then what we got for the 
final one. 

1399
01:07:15,240 --> 01:07:17,560
It's a combination of the 
submarine thing that happens, 

1400
01:07:17,560 --> 01:07:21,080
which is really cool, and then 
the big, the big biplane chase 

1401
01:07:21,080 --> 01:07:23,040
that happens. 
The reason I list all those is 

1402
01:07:23,040 --> 01:07:26,600
because in each one of those 
movies, it gets progressively to

1403
01:07:26,600 --> 01:07:28,520
the point where the stunt 
overtakes the film. 

1404
01:07:29,040 --> 01:07:31,200
Yeah. 
In the Burj Khalifa sequence, it

1405
01:07:31,200 --> 01:07:32,360
makes sense for what they're 
doing. 

1406
01:07:32,360 --> 01:07:35,400
It's part of the heist and it's 
good character stuff happens and

1407
01:07:35,400 --> 01:07:37,840
plots of not plot stuff, but 
like stuff that makes this stuff

1408
01:07:37,840 --> 01:07:41,200
interesting happens and it's 
it's really good and it's in the

1409
01:07:41,200 --> 01:07:43,040
middle of the movie and it's not
the big climax. 

1410
01:07:43,240 --> 01:07:45,200
And then they crack on with 
other shit after it. 

1411
01:07:45,280 --> 01:07:46,920
And there's also over a good 
stunts in the movie. 

1412
01:07:47,920 --> 01:07:50,400
Each of these films has a good 
stunts in them. 

1413
01:07:50,440 --> 01:07:53,120
The A400 and the next one 
happens in the cold open. 

1414
01:07:53,160 --> 01:07:56,320
Then the Fallout 1 happens at 
the climax and then after that 

1415
01:07:56,360 --> 01:08:00,240
they become like parts of the 
climax and then they go on for 

1416
01:08:00,240 --> 01:08:02,560
ages. 
And then the focus drifts away 

1417
01:08:02,560 --> 01:08:06,800
from the storytelling of the 
action and turns into look at 

1418
01:08:06,800 --> 01:08:08,680
the stunt we're doing. 
Can you believe we're really 

1419
01:08:08,680 --> 01:08:10,760
doing this? 
And it kind of becomes a bit 

1420
01:08:10,760 --> 01:08:15,000
distracting to A to a certain 
extent, to the point where what 

1421
01:08:15,000 --> 01:08:17,319
you sign up for when you kind of
come to a movie theatre to watch

1422
01:08:17,319 --> 01:08:20,000
a film is to be taken away and 
right along with a story. 

1423
01:08:20,240 --> 01:08:22,279
And then what ends up happening 
and this is that you end up kind

1424
01:08:22,279 --> 01:08:24,160
of going, well, it's half of 
that. 

1425
01:08:24,399 --> 01:08:29,760
And it's and it's half like me 
now watching like just like a 

1426
01:08:29,760 --> 01:08:32,760
stunt like you would on TV, like
like watching Evel Knievel jump 

1427
01:08:32,760 --> 01:08:34,520
a bunch of buses. 
It's like it's not part of the 

1428
01:08:34,520 --> 01:08:35,960
story. 
This is separate to the story. 

1429
01:08:36,240 --> 01:08:39,040
It's a bit like, but when they 
did the Bond movies and like in 

1430
01:08:39,040 --> 01:08:42,600
living that die, they do the the
the jump over the river as the 

1431
01:08:42,600 --> 01:08:45,399
car somersaults and it's like, 
yeah, OK, I get it. 

1432
01:08:45,399 --> 01:08:47,080
But that's not really part of 
the movie anymore. 

1433
01:08:47,080 --> 01:08:48,399
This isn't part of the chase 
scene. 

1434
01:08:48,399 --> 01:08:50,160
It's just like a stunt he's done
in the middle of the chase 

1435
01:08:50,160 --> 01:08:52,319
scene. 
It's overdone, it's over worked,

1436
01:08:52,319 --> 01:08:55,840
it's over Ross. 
And while it's cool, it also 

1437
01:08:55,840 --> 01:08:58,840
kind of makes you feel a little 
bit cheated, I guess, because 

1438
01:08:58,840 --> 01:09:03,120
like, the films built around 
this rather than built around 

1439
01:09:03,120 --> 01:09:05,880
the film, you know? 
Yeah, that definitely was an 

1440
01:09:05,880 --> 01:09:08,560
issue as we get to the ends 
where the plotting of the films 

1441
01:09:08,560 --> 01:09:10,880
becomes very much like a 
secondary to like, how can we 

1442
01:09:10,880 --> 01:09:13,479
get from distance sequence to 
distance sequence to distance? 

1443
01:09:13,920 --> 01:09:16,600
And that wouldn't be so bad if 
it wasn't in this genre of film 

1444
01:09:16,760 --> 01:09:19,399
where plot is actually really 
important for to keep the wheels

1445
01:09:19,399 --> 01:09:22,200
on. 
Yeah, like a spy from that 

1446
01:09:22,200 --> 01:09:26,120
hasn't got a problem that makes 
sense or is like interesting and

1447
01:09:26,120 --> 01:09:28,760
it's just nugatory. 
Like, yeah, it's bad. 

1448
01:09:28,760 --> 01:09:31,240
I talked about on the first one 
we did Mission Impossible one. 

1449
01:09:31,240 --> 01:09:35,279
But like in from this point on, 
you're going to get increasingly

1450
01:09:35,399 --> 01:09:38,720
films where all the plotters 
live to you like small simply 

1451
01:09:38,720 --> 01:09:42,160
lit rooms so they can change as 
they need it to work around the 

1452
01:09:42,160 --> 01:09:44,520
stun sequences. 
Long story short, Owen David is 

1453
01:09:44,520 --> 01:09:47,359
recaptured by his mercenaries 
and all the. 

1454
01:09:47,640 --> 01:09:49,040
We've missed our really cool 
bit. 

1455
01:09:49,160 --> 01:09:51,040
We missed our really cool. 
Bit on the flight home. 

1456
01:09:51,160 --> 01:09:54,000
On the flight home, fuck me, 
right? 

1457
01:09:54,240 --> 01:09:56,480
Take it away. 
So the so they're interrogating 

1458
01:09:56,480 --> 01:09:59,200
them and this is when this is 
when you start to really see 

1459
01:10:00,640 --> 01:10:05,640
just the quality in Philip 
Seymour Hoffman's acting, the 

1460
01:10:05,680 --> 01:10:07,840
menace that you abused this 
character. 

1461
01:10:08,800 --> 01:10:11,960
The crux of it being in the 
whole the whole thing is 

1462
01:10:12,040 --> 01:10:15,280
obviously he's not going to get 
he's not going to get Ethan to 

1463
01:10:15,480 --> 01:10:19,840
identify himself to him. 
So he gets him so fucking pissed

1464
01:10:19,840 --> 01:10:24,400
off that he almost arbitrarily 
executes him by dropping him out

1465
01:10:24,400 --> 01:10:28,440
of a plane just so he can hear 
Luther shout his name to stop 

1466
01:10:28,440 --> 01:10:31,600
him. 
And that's genius, he is. 

1467
01:10:31,600 --> 01:10:34,920
He is a great foil for Ethan 
Hunt. 

1468
01:10:35,040 --> 01:10:38,200
Because which of these guys is 
more fearless? 

1469
01:10:38,200 --> 01:10:42,280
And in the end, Ethan shows the 
most fear for his wife, right? 

1470
01:10:42,480 --> 01:10:43,480
This is a classic thing, isn't 
it? 

1471
01:10:43,600 --> 01:10:46,040
Like what's. 
Yeah, he's he shows no concern 

1472
01:10:46,040 --> 01:10:48,000
for his own physical well-being 
and throws himself into all 

1473
01:10:48,000 --> 01:10:50,160
these situations. 
But yeah, ultimately the the 

1474
01:10:50,160 --> 01:10:52,360
ultimate bit of leverage is that
you have a wife and family. 

1475
01:10:52,720 --> 01:10:53,720
Exactly. 
Yeah. 

1476
01:10:53,720 --> 01:10:58,160
And it's just fucking really 
cool just seeing them being held

1477
01:10:58,160 --> 01:11:02,040
on just by like cable ties. 
That's zip ties to our American 

1478
01:11:02,040 --> 01:11:04,280
cousins. 
It's like he better have not got

1479
01:11:04,280 --> 01:11:07,400
those from B&M bargains, because
I do not trust those things. 

1480
01:11:09,080 --> 01:11:14,240
But no, yeah, it was incredible.
And just seeing him getting 

1481
01:11:14,240 --> 01:11:18,800
mentally outmanoeuvred because 
Ethan Hunt is a good guy who 

1482
01:11:18,800 --> 01:11:21,440
gets a lot of things right a lot
of the time. 

1483
01:11:22,080 --> 01:11:27,240
And to see him get pulled out of
his as the moral construct by 

1484
01:11:27,240 --> 01:11:31,000
which he lives his life and his 
hand forced into doing something

1485
01:11:31,040 --> 01:11:34,560
arguably evil. 
That's not even arguably evil. 

1486
01:11:34,560 --> 01:11:37,640
It's like the fucking it's like 
the fucking arbitrary execution 

1487
01:11:37,640 --> 01:11:39,640
of a guy just because he's 
threatening people around you, 

1488
01:11:39,680 --> 01:11:43,000
you know, I mean, he's been 
picked up by guys from a three 

1489
01:11:43,000 --> 01:11:45,400
letter agency who got this 
evolved of the fuck up. 

1490
01:11:45,400 --> 01:11:47,360
He's been thrown onto a plane 
and then he's been taken back 

1491
01:11:47,360 --> 01:11:49,400
America. 
So it absolutely is rendition, 

1492
01:11:49,480 --> 01:11:52,520
right? 
So this guy bumps into her in 

1493
01:11:52,520 --> 01:11:55,160
the in the hallway and says, 
like, you know, can you find, 

1494
01:11:55,280 --> 01:11:56,800
find this patient? 
And she's like, absolutely not, 

1495
01:11:56,800 --> 01:11:58,400
but we're going to go anyway. 
What's her name? 

1496
01:11:58,600 --> 01:11:59,760
And he sticks a little sticker 
on her. 

1497
01:12:00,000 --> 01:12:02,120
And the sticker knocks her out. 
It's, it's some kind of 

1498
01:12:02,120 --> 01:12:04,680
sedative. 
He puts in a body bag and tries 

1499
01:12:04,680 --> 01:12:06,720
to take her to the hospital. 
As Ethan is rushing around 

1500
01:12:06,720 --> 01:12:10,320
looking for her, he literally 
walks past her and the guy and 

1501
01:12:10,320 --> 01:12:12,840
doesn't spot it, which is a 
brilliant bit of visual drive, 

1502
01:12:12,840 --> 01:12:13,120
really. 
Yeah. 

1503
01:12:13,120 --> 01:12:14,280
Yeah. 
Yeah, that was great. 

1504
01:12:15,480 --> 01:12:17,120
Very good. 
And then he gets the phone call 

1505
01:12:17,120 --> 01:12:21,080
in the parking lot that Julie 
has been taken and he has 40 

1506
01:12:21,080 --> 01:12:23,800
hours to find the rabbits foot. 
And just as that happens, a 

1507
01:12:23,800 --> 01:12:26,080
bunch of blacks and hands circle
around him. 

1508
01:12:26,320 --> 01:12:29,920
And out of it steps a bunch of 
IMF agents led by on Timothy 

1509
01:12:30,040 --> 01:12:33,440
Omundson, who plays Detective 
Lassie. 

1510
01:12:33,440 --> 01:12:36,320
And it's like, and he's like, 
we've got to take you in, man. 

1511
01:12:37,880 --> 01:12:40,120
And he tries to get away, but 
they, they shouldn't. 

1512
01:12:40,120 --> 01:12:43,920
They tease him and they and they
bring him back to IMFHQ where he

1513
01:12:43,920 --> 01:12:49,160
gets grilled at the minute. 
He thinks that that Brussel is 

1514
01:12:49,160 --> 01:12:52,600
the crooked Mai who he he and 
Brussel are loggerheads and he's

1515
01:12:54,400 --> 01:12:57,640
what's he restrains to a Gurney 
and yeah, like and muzzled. 

1516
01:12:58,320 --> 01:13:00,600
The restraint would go and 
either put a gooning mask on him

1517
01:13:00,600 --> 01:13:03,960
and then they had like the drag 
of it, like the good cave to it 

1518
01:13:03,960 --> 01:13:06,240
there. 
And it's like as as I said to 

1519
01:13:06,240 --> 01:13:09,720
Emma, and this upset her against
everything after the seed is 

1520
01:13:09,720 --> 01:13:13,000
just his hallucinations as he 
goods himself to a brainless 

1521
01:13:13,000 --> 01:13:19,720
degree, like like like fucking 
what's his name Brussels, like 

1522
01:13:20,840 --> 01:13:22,680
you're going to pull that shit 
smooth off. 

1523
01:13:22,760 --> 01:13:24,520
You're going to goon until 
you're brainless. 

1524
01:13:24,520 --> 01:13:25,840
This is how we're going to break
you. 

1525
01:13:25,840 --> 01:13:27,520
It's. 
Going to be like a blind couple 

1526
01:13:27,520 --> 01:13:29,800
of thumb. 
You're going to good so bad you 

1527
01:13:29,800 --> 01:13:32,760
won't know one ways up one ways 
down, right? 

1528
01:13:32,920 --> 01:13:35,120
Wrong. 
You'll only know the goon. 

1529
01:13:35,960 --> 01:13:38,560
That's awful. 
That's awful. 1 Fishman 1 

1530
01:13:38,600 --> 01:13:40,840
Fishman When you're here, going 
to try not to come. 

1531
01:13:43,880 --> 01:13:46,840
Lawrence Lawrence Fishman's like
Good boys don't bust. 

1532
01:13:47,000 --> 01:13:51,120
Good boys don't bust. 
Man. 

1533
01:13:51,640 --> 01:13:53,040
That's a little. 
Point for us. 

1534
01:13:57,920 --> 01:14:00,560
I'm so sorry. 
So Billy Crud appears, who was 

1535
01:14:00,600 --> 01:14:03,000
of course become Doctor 
Manhattan in Watchmen. 

1536
01:14:03,280 --> 01:14:05,360
And he says Ethan, try not to 
come. 

1537
01:14:05,360 --> 01:14:10,360
No, Ethan. 
Ethan, do you want to see how 

1538
01:14:10,400 --> 01:14:13,320
deep the rabbit hole goes? 
I'm so disappointed in you, 

1539
01:14:13,320 --> 01:14:14,640
Ethan. 
I'm so disappointed that you 

1540
01:14:14,640 --> 01:14:16,240
could do this. 
You've, you've been a traitor. 

1541
01:14:16,240 --> 01:14:20,280
That he does some lip, mouths 
some words to Ethan and gives 

1542
01:14:20,280 --> 01:14:24,240
him a tool for which to free 
himself and. 

1543
01:14:24,800 --> 01:14:27,040
To go to win Shanghai. 
That's right. 

1544
01:14:27,040 --> 01:14:29,040
And they're like, take him away.
Take. 

1545
01:14:29,040 --> 01:14:32,840
Him away, boys. 
Take him from me and they and 

1546
01:14:32,840 --> 01:14:37,000
then we have a cool, cool 
elevator fight, which is very 

1547
01:14:37,000 --> 01:14:39,360
good. 
Yeah, boy, Tom Cruise gets free 

1548
01:14:39,360 --> 01:14:43,520
and he has a unsanctioned 
mission that he takes as a 

1549
01:14:43,520 --> 01:14:47,400
Shanghai with with the gang to 
recover the rabbit's foot. 

1550
01:14:47,400 --> 01:14:50,640
So there's a very cool sequence 
here where this is another cool 

1551
01:14:50,640 --> 01:14:55,680
stunt which they don't do for 
real, for real, but it's it's 

1552
01:14:55,680 --> 01:14:58,160
good enough. 
So it's what I'm talking about 

1553
01:14:58,160 --> 01:15:01,760
is the how they're going to 
infiltrate the skyscraper at 

1554
01:15:01,760 --> 01:15:04,200
which the rabbit's foot is held.
And the way they tend to do it 

1555
01:15:04,200 --> 01:15:05,560
is from a neighbouring 
skyscraper. 

1556
01:15:05,720 --> 01:15:09,800
They're going to use a fulcrum 
to swing and and land on top of 

1557
01:15:09,800 --> 01:15:12,840
the other skyscraper and then 
try not to fall off it because 

1558
01:15:12,960 --> 01:15:16,000
the roof of it is a big slant. 
Meanwhile, they're going to 

1559
01:15:16,000 --> 01:15:17,600
distract the guards. 
This bit doesn't really work for

1560
01:15:17,600 --> 01:15:18,560
me. 
They're going to distract the 

1561
01:15:18,560 --> 01:15:22,400
guards enough so that when he 
does do that mission that that 

1562
01:15:22,400 --> 01:15:26,200
fall onto the you can kill them 
easier. 

1563
01:15:26,520 --> 01:15:28,560
I don't know. 
And it's like, this is wild to 

1564
01:15:28,560 --> 01:15:33,640
me because they decide to 
distract them using a baseball 

1565
01:15:33,640 --> 01:15:35,920
pitching machine. 
Where do they get that from? 

1566
01:15:35,920 --> 01:15:37,800
Do they know they're going to do
that before they got there? 

1567
01:15:38,640 --> 01:15:41,520
Like if he if he stood in the 
building looking at it and going

1568
01:15:41,840 --> 01:15:44,040
I know I'm going to do and so 
it's drawing on the window. 

1569
01:15:44,320 --> 01:15:46,840
I'm going to do a fulcrum doing 
the measurements and stuff. 

1570
01:15:47,200 --> 01:15:51,040
Then surely he knew what's the 
did he plan all that on the fly 

1571
01:15:51,040 --> 01:15:52,600
when he got there? 
Do they have no idea what 

1572
01:15:52,600 --> 01:15:53,920
they're going to do when he 
arrives? 

1573
01:15:54,160 --> 01:15:55,320
They're just going to scoop it 
out. 

1574
01:15:55,400 --> 01:15:57,040
Are they scooping it out and 
then an hour's time they're 

1575
01:15:57,040 --> 01:15:59,200
going to go back and do it. 
Is are they finding the all like

1576
01:15:59,200 --> 01:16:01,240
baseball pitching machine shop 
to do this from? 

1577
01:16:01,720 --> 01:16:04,000
Is there is there a Sports 
Direct in the fucking bottom 

1578
01:16:04,000 --> 01:16:07,200
floor of the one they're in? 
Out out of all the things on the

1579
01:16:07,200 --> 01:16:09,040
go. 
Keep one in in the boot of my 

1580
01:16:09,040 --> 01:16:11,000
car at all times. 
Actually, you don't. 

1581
01:16:11,120 --> 01:16:14,240
I will now. 
Because whenever I get tailgated

1582
01:16:14,240 --> 01:16:16,600
I just swing open the rear. 
Don't go fuck you. 

1583
01:16:16,600 --> 01:16:18,080
Oh. 
Man, I want that. 

1584
01:16:18,080 --> 01:16:20,920
I want a fucking tail gun I'm on
when someone's like Bootlin is 

1585
01:16:20,920 --> 01:16:24,800
on the a 19, I want to just like
press a button, actually open. 

1586
01:16:24,800 --> 01:16:27,840
So just like a little guy with 
like a fucking baseball pitching

1587
01:16:27,840 --> 01:16:29,760
machine just gives him six and 
out. 

1588
01:16:29,880 --> 01:16:32,640
That'd be fantastic. 
But it's like, yeah, where one 

1589
01:16:32,760 --> 01:16:36,040
where the hell of the finding it
2 they make a big thing. 

1590
01:16:36,240 --> 01:16:39,520
All these armed guards, the Rex,
the Rex People's Liberation 

1591
01:16:39,520 --> 01:16:41,880
Army. 
So yeah, yeah, for these guys 

1592
01:16:41,880 --> 01:16:44,760
are going to escalate the lethal
force straight away when 

1593
01:16:44,760 --> 01:16:47,600
something gets thrown at them, 
be it a fucking baseball or 

1594
01:16:47,600 --> 01:16:51,200
whatever, you know, this is this
is fucking Shanghai, man. 

1595
01:16:51,240 --> 01:16:52,560
They aren't going to mess 
around. 

1596
01:16:52,560 --> 01:16:55,760
That's all they they didn't know
that was a baseball, but it was 

1597
01:16:55,760 --> 01:16:57,080
flinging its way across towards 
them. 

1598
01:16:57,640 --> 01:16:59,160
It could be anything. 
Yeah. 

1599
01:16:59,520 --> 01:17:02,480
Oh, hang around to find out. 
So you just the jump, just the 

1600
01:17:02,480 --> 01:17:05,160
big swinging fulcrum thing, 
which looks really good. 

1601
01:17:05,600 --> 01:17:06,880
It looks it looks really good on
the thumb. 

1602
01:17:06,880 --> 01:17:09,800
And what they did in real life 
is they have a really they had a

1603
01:17:09,800 --> 01:17:14,240
really high platform in a sound 
stage and green screened all 

1604
01:17:14,240 --> 01:17:16,960
around it. 
So you really did like run like 

1605
01:17:16,960 --> 01:17:21,080
30 feet and like jump and fall 
quite a long way on on on a 

1606
01:17:21,080 --> 01:17:23,440
line. 
They just CGI did in Shanghai 

1607
01:17:23,640 --> 01:17:25,200
after. 
But yeah, it looks really, 

1608
01:17:25,200 --> 01:17:27,400
really good. 
So he does that very cool. 

1609
01:17:27,720 --> 01:17:29,320
And you have like Luther, like 
he made it. 

1610
01:17:29,640 --> 01:17:32,080
I knew we'd make it very fun. 
And then you have the whole 

1611
01:17:32,080 --> 01:17:35,640
bollocks of him, like infiltrate
in the building. 

1612
01:17:35,680 --> 01:17:37,400
We don't see it. 
We see like everyone else 

1613
01:17:37,400 --> 01:17:39,200
reacting to it. 
And then he just says overcomes,

1614
01:17:39,320 --> 01:17:41,200
I've got the rabbits fun. 
Like, what the fuck? 

1615
01:17:41,240 --> 01:17:42,960
There's definitely a sequence 
that we should have seen. 

1616
01:17:43,120 --> 01:17:44,680
I was like, hang on, did I miss 
something there? 

1617
01:17:44,680 --> 01:17:46,560
And I went back and was like, I 
don't think it is. 

1618
01:17:46,760 --> 01:17:48,840
Yeah, I thought it was just to 
go, we had cut of it or 

1619
01:17:48,840 --> 01:17:51,120
something, but no. 
It's yeah, but no. 

1620
01:17:51,120 --> 01:17:52,520
So he just said. 
He just says he's got it. 

1621
01:17:52,640 --> 01:17:55,600
I guess him getting it from the 
skyscraper would have looked an 

1622
01:17:55,600 --> 01:17:57,760
awful lot like getting the 
Mergafen from the end of Mission

1623
01:17:57,760 --> 01:17:59,880
Impossible 2. 
That was my thing and yeah. 

1624
01:18:00,200 --> 01:18:02,240
I've conflated them. 
Yeah, but he just has it. 

1625
01:18:02,320 --> 01:18:03,680
Yeah. 
There's a whole phone bit where 

1626
01:18:03,680 --> 01:18:06,120
he has to escape, though, and 
he's too low for the base jump. 

1627
01:18:06,120 --> 01:18:08,960
And he's parachute opens and he 
gets flung back into a building.

1628
01:18:08,960 --> 01:18:10,920
And there's a very funny 
sequence where like a guy, 

1629
01:18:10,920 --> 01:18:14,160
security guard comes in and sees
him and then he gets pulled out 

1630
01:18:14,160 --> 01:18:17,880
by the building and by the 
billowing parachute at the exact

1631
01:18:17,880 --> 01:18:19,560
same moment. 
A bit of paper like hits and 

1632
01:18:19,560 --> 01:18:22,400
square in the face as well. 
That's a very, very funny, very,

1633
01:18:22,440 --> 01:18:25,600
very good shot. 
Well, he ends up on the ground 

1634
01:18:25,600 --> 01:18:29,000
by falling into the Rose and 
then the parachute getting 

1635
01:18:29,000 --> 01:18:30,680
caught on a street light or 
something. 

1636
01:18:31,040 --> 01:18:32,880
So he's dangling. 
He's dangling above traffic. 

1637
01:18:32,880 --> 01:18:35,600
Yeah, which is cool. 
And then he falls on the ground 

1638
01:18:36,320 --> 01:18:38,840
and he gets separated from the 
the rabbit's foot. 

1639
01:18:39,280 --> 01:18:42,600
And we finally see it as well. 
It's like a biohazard container,

1640
01:18:42,920 --> 01:18:45,920
which if anything, makes it make
less sense to me. 

1641
01:18:46,360 --> 01:18:49,000
Like, what was it? 
Is it a virus? 

1642
01:18:49,480 --> 01:18:51,760
Is it a fucking? 
We had a virus in the last one. 

1643
01:18:51,840 --> 01:18:53,120
It can't be a virus again, 
surely. 

1644
01:18:53,400 --> 01:18:54,480
What is it? 
Who knows? 

1645
01:18:54,560 --> 01:18:59,640
So yeah, that happens and 
there's a bit of a bit of a car 

1646
01:18:59,640 --> 01:19:01,640
chasing kind of thing. 
And then eventually they they 

1647
01:19:01,640 --> 01:19:03,000
get away and they have the 
rabbit's foot and. 

1648
01:19:03,000 --> 01:19:05,560
Then Land Rover involved, right?
There's a Land Rover on that car

1649
01:19:05,560 --> 01:19:08,040
chase, am I right? 
I think so, yeah. 

1650
01:19:08,040 --> 01:19:10,480
I think there's building 
security when A1 aren't they? 

1651
01:19:10,480 --> 01:19:13,120
Yeah, Sonya, is that a Land 
Rover? 

1652
01:19:14,480 --> 01:19:16,960
Hang on, how did I not club 
that? 

1653
01:19:18,800 --> 01:19:21,480
It's not like in green and white
slunge of the colours though. 

1654
01:19:21,480 --> 01:19:24,440
Yeah, it's not good old school. 
He's looking nice defender. 

1655
01:19:24,440 --> 01:19:28,360
Yeah, so Ethan, this is what it 
says in the summary. 

1656
01:19:28,360 --> 01:19:31,200
Ethan obtains the rabbit foot 
and delivers it to Davian, who 

1657
01:19:31,200 --> 01:19:34,680
tranquillizes him and implants a
micro explosive similar to the 

1658
01:19:34,680 --> 01:19:36,360
one that killed Lindsay in his 
head. 

1659
01:19:36,480 --> 01:19:38,160
So we've kind of caught up with 
the start of the film. 

1660
01:19:38,160 --> 01:19:40,240
So he wakes up, he's in, he's 
bolted to the chair. 

1661
01:19:40,320 --> 01:19:42,400
Davian is not happy about the 
rabbit's foot. 

1662
01:19:43,160 --> 01:19:45,920
I don't understand this because 
I think that is Roberts foot. 

1663
01:19:45,920 --> 01:19:48,400
I think he's just fucking with 
him which is weird. 

1664
01:19:48,440 --> 01:19:49,800
This. 
Is one of the thing. 

1665
01:19:50,480 --> 01:19:52,640
This is one of the things a lot 
of people really pissed off 

1666
01:19:52,640 --> 01:19:56,440
about JJ Abrams quote unquote 
mystery box storytelling 

1667
01:19:56,440 --> 01:19:59,760
techniques and stuff. 
That's like I didn't piss me off

1668
01:19:59,760 --> 01:20:01,160
pregnancy. 
Why people might have found it a

1669
01:20:01,160 --> 01:20:03,880
little bit infuriating. 
The whole what is rabbit's foot 

1670
01:20:03,880 --> 01:20:05,760
kind of thing that's saying what
is this not it? 

1671
01:20:06,000 --> 01:20:09,080
I wonder if there was some 
drastic cuts done between this 

1672
01:20:09,080 --> 01:20:12,720
whole anti guard thing and I was
asked to biohus and it's like I 

1673
01:20:12,720 --> 01:20:14,720
wonder if there was more 
exposition than that that was 

1674
01:20:14,720 --> 01:20:18,360
cut out to make things more kind
of like teasing and make things 

1675
01:20:18,360 --> 01:20:22,280
more engaging I guess I mean. 
Owen Davian shoots who Ethan 

1676
01:20:22,280 --> 01:20:24,760
believes to be Julia, but it's 
not. 

1677
01:20:24,840 --> 01:20:27,960
And this is something that 
pisses me off actually, is that 

1678
01:20:27,960 --> 01:20:30,720
somehow Owen Davian also has the
mass technology. 

1679
01:20:30,720 --> 01:20:34,240
It has made a mask of Michelle 
Monaghan and put it onto his 

1680
01:20:34,240 --> 01:20:36,360
former head of security, who 
he's just doomed. 

1681
01:20:36,360 --> 01:20:39,640
The former head of security been
the translator from the Vatican.

1682
01:20:39,640 --> 01:20:43,160
Sequence allowed. 
Yeah, he let him down. 

1683
01:20:43,160 --> 01:20:44,760
Exactly. 
I mean, the movie was great. 

1684
01:20:44,840 --> 01:20:48,160
This, this, this all works 
really well for me as a action 

1685
01:20:48,160 --> 01:20:50,560
sequence. 
It doesn't make any sense to me 

1686
01:20:50,560 --> 01:20:52,360
as to what Owen Davian's doing 
and why. 

1687
01:20:53,880 --> 01:20:56,240
Like he's got the rabbit's foot.
Should just go on his merry way,

1688
01:20:56,240 --> 01:20:58,480
right? 
Yeah, but I guess he's 

1689
01:20:58,480 --> 01:21:01,040
vindictive over the whole 
playing thing, but he's. 

1690
01:21:01,040 --> 01:21:02,960
But he doesn't want to say it. 
He just wants to confound him. 

1691
01:21:03,120 --> 01:21:04,720
Give me the rabbit's foot. 
I've given you the rabbit's 

1692
01:21:04,720 --> 01:21:05,600
foot. 
Give me the rabbit's foot. 

1693
01:21:05,600 --> 01:21:07,280
I'll kill this woman. 
He's got the rabbit's foot. 

1694
01:21:07,280 --> 01:21:09,440
I'm going to kill her then to 
make any sense. 

1695
01:21:09,520 --> 01:21:13,120
Anyway, Ethan has a big long 
chat with I think it's Benji to 

1696
01:21:13,120 --> 01:21:17,320
find out where where Julie is. 
And it turns out they're like 

1697
01:21:17,680 --> 01:21:20,640
mile away from each other and he
has to just run across Shanghai 

1698
01:21:20,640 --> 01:21:23,240
to find her. 
Then it's just the great kind of

1699
01:21:23,280 --> 01:21:26,000
him, him directing him as he 
runs kind of scene. 

1700
01:21:26,680 --> 01:21:29,040
Yeah, classic. 
And you'll hang a lampshade on 

1701
01:21:29,040 --> 01:21:31,800
this kind of thing later on that
the same scene again kind of 

1702
01:21:31,800 --> 01:21:36,360
thing in Dead Reckoning. 
But because the entity has taken

1703
01:21:36,360 --> 01:21:39,560
over the comms, it's it's like 
it's like a bad sat NAV. 

1704
01:21:39,560 --> 01:21:41,840
It's like turn left, turn right.
No, Ethan, you gotta go left. 

1705
01:21:41,960 --> 01:21:43,680
If no, hang on. 
You gotta go, turn around, go 

1706
01:21:43,680 --> 01:21:44,920
behind you. 
And it's like the voice is 

1707
01:21:44,920 --> 01:21:46,080
taking over. 
It's just leading on a merry 

1708
01:21:46,080 --> 01:21:47,240
chase. 
Very, very funny. 

1709
01:21:47,320 --> 01:21:48,160
Yes. 
So we have that. 

1710
01:21:48,400 --> 01:21:51,160
So we have him running and we 
see like, what are the great 

1711
01:21:51,160 --> 01:21:53,160
sequences of Tom Cruise 
sprinting? 

1712
01:21:53,640 --> 01:21:55,840
Yeah, it's the final, final day 
of shooting the movie. 

1713
01:21:55,840 --> 01:21:58,400
So the final scene that that 
that Tom Cruise shot for this 

1714
01:21:58,400 --> 01:22:01,040
film is that really long run 
that he does along the 

1715
01:22:01,040 --> 01:22:03,560
Riverside. 
Yeah, and all those extras, 

1716
01:22:03,600 --> 01:22:05,200
they're not real extras. 
They're just people who happen 

1717
01:22:05,200 --> 01:22:07,000
to live in that village. 
So they were getting like I 

1718
01:22:07,000 --> 01:22:08,960
herded like cats by the 
production. 

1719
01:22:09,200 --> 01:22:13,240
So they had like a Chinese 
speaking assistant director for 

1720
01:22:13,240 --> 01:22:15,280
for the Shanghai sequences. 
It was a Scottish guy for the 

1721
01:22:15,280 --> 01:22:17,200
rest of the movie. 
But for the Chinese stuff, 

1722
01:22:17,200 --> 01:22:19,440
they've got a Chinese local 
there and she's just talking to 

1723
01:22:19,440 --> 01:22:21,440
the normal people saying like, 
don't look anything, don't look 

1724
01:22:21,440 --> 01:22:22,320
at them, Just don't look at 
them. 

1725
01:22:22,320 --> 01:22:24,120
I like just go out your day. 
Like, no, you normally would. 

1726
01:22:24,120 --> 01:22:26,840
I think this is where some of 
the stories have come up online 

1727
01:22:26,840 --> 01:22:29,360
of like of like Tom Cruise is 
like no one's had to look at Tom

1728
01:22:29,360 --> 01:22:31,280
Cruise on set. 
And it's like what they are. 

1729
01:22:31,280 --> 01:22:33,080
It's just like if you're an 
extra scene, you should be 

1730
01:22:33,080 --> 01:22:36,120
looking at the fucking spy who's
there because it's really 

1731
01:22:36,120 --> 01:22:38,560
obvious if it was, if everyone, 
if everyone at the park is 

1732
01:22:38,560 --> 01:22:41,600
looking at Tom Cruise, you know.
But anyway, yes, we have that, 

1733
01:22:41,600 --> 01:22:44,040
which is really, really cool. 
There's a fantastic video online

1734
01:22:44,040 --> 01:22:46,840
that that analysis. 
Tom Cruise is running the form 

1735
01:22:47,080 --> 01:22:49,920
and he has really good form and 
he's really nimble getting over 

1736
01:22:49,920 --> 01:22:51,840
these rooftops and stuff and 
getting down to St level and 

1737
01:22:51,840 --> 01:22:53,520
then running across this way. 
And you've got to remember he's 

1738
01:22:53,520 --> 01:22:55,320
like wearing dress shoots when 
he does it as well. 

1739
01:22:56,360 --> 01:22:59,120
So as a sprinter, he has 
generally really good form and 

1740
01:22:59,120 --> 01:23:00,880
you'll see like his posture is 
really good. 

1741
01:23:02,440 --> 01:23:05,920
Yeah, sorry. 
So yeah, I got, I got really 

1742
01:23:05,920 --> 01:23:08,080
into this when I got really into
running like 3 years ago. 

1743
01:23:08,400 --> 01:23:11,120
And I, and I watched this video 
and I'm going to, I'm going to 

1744
01:23:11,120 --> 01:23:13,200
link to it in the show. 
It's fascinating video about how

1745
01:23:13,200 --> 01:23:15,160
good Tom Cruise's running form 
is, anyway. 

1746
01:23:15,760 --> 01:23:18,960
We do put a lot of special 
interests into this podcast. 

1747
01:23:18,960 --> 01:23:20,840
Don't. 
We we finally get the reveal 

1748
01:23:20,840 --> 01:23:24,440
that Musgrave, IE Billy Crudup, 
is actually the bad guy. 

1749
01:23:24,440 --> 01:23:26,920
He's the one who I think peels 
off the mask of the the head of 

1750
01:23:26,920 --> 01:23:28,600
security and everything. 
Yeah. 

1751
01:23:28,640 --> 01:23:31,120
He's like, Julia's alive even 
because of me. 

1752
01:23:31,120 --> 01:23:33,480
Julia's still alive. 
Davian want to kill you both, 

1753
01:23:33,480 --> 01:23:35,760
but I convinced him otherwise. 
Julie hasn't seen me. 

1754
01:23:35,760 --> 01:23:38,040
She doesn't know anything. 
She's clean and she'll get to go

1755
01:23:38,040 --> 01:23:40,240
on with her life as long as you 
tell me about Lindsay's message.

1756
01:23:40,320 --> 01:23:42,720
That's why I'm here. 
Did Lindsay know about me and 

1757
01:23:42,720 --> 01:23:44,520
Davian? 
Is that why she sent the message

1758
01:23:44,520 --> 01:23:45,680
to you? 
Did she read it? 

1759
01:23:45,880 --> 01:23:48,520
Did anyone else see it? 
And all that kind of stuff goes 

1760
01:23:48,560 --> 01:23:50,320
off goes off for one. 
So he's he's a shit. 

1761
01:23:50,320 --> 01:23:52,400
And there's a fun bit where he 
like goes into this building as 

1762
01:23:52,400 --> 01:23:54,560
a bunch of old fellas all like 
played more Hong or something. 

1763
01:23:54,560 --> 01:23:57,080
And they kind of just like 
points like go through that 

1764
01:23:57,080 --> 01:23:58,000
door. 
Yeah. 

1765
01:23:58,400 --> 01:23:59,760
We don't. 
We don't want any troubles. 

1766
01:23:59,840 --> 01:24:01,640
And so he does, and he finds 
her. 

1767
01:24:01,680 --> 01:24:05,800
And just just as he finds her, 
Owen and Davian appears. 

1768
01:24:05,800 --> 01:24:08,520
And as that happens, he gets 
like a obviously a blinding 

1769
01:24:08,520 --> 01:24:09,960
headache. 
And Davian's like, I've 

1770
01:24:09,960 --> 01:24:11,840
activated the chip in your head.
I love. 

1771
01:24:11,840 --> 01:24:14,480
The way you love us, that 
lineman just like the. 

1772
01:24:15,120 --> 01:24:18,520
The chip in your head. 
It's it's like the delivery is 

1773
01:24:18,520 --> 01:24:20,760
incredible. 
It's like it's, it's a matter of

1774
01:24:20,760 --> 01:24:22,720
fact, Yeah. 
It's still brimming with 

1775
01:24:22,840 --> 01:24:26,560
absolute menace. 
Yeah, that's what it is. 

1776
01:24:26,600 --> 01:24:28,040
I've activated the charger in 
the head. 

1777
01:24:28,200 --> 01:24:29,600
He tosses the triggers to the 
ground. 

1778
01:24:29,720 --> 01:24:33,000
You have maybe 4 minutes left. 
Ethan is an excruciating pain. 

1779
01:24:33,120 --> 01:24:35,680
Julia breathing heavily, 
terrified, perplexed as Davian 

1780
01:24:35,680 --> 01:24:37,480
circles Ethan and kicks him in 
the face. 

1781
01:24:37,960 --> 01:24:40,960
I told you she'd call your name 
and she's and Julia's like, stop

1782
01:24:40,960 --> 01:24:44,920
it, don't Ethan. 
And then have a fight. 

1783
01:24:44,920 --> 01:24:46,600
It's a good fight. 
It's a really good fight. 

1784
01:24:46,640 --> 01:24:48,920
It's a punchy. 
It's really, it's weighty. 

1785
01:24:49,720 --> 01:24:52,840
Tom Cruise is really good at 
doing fight scenes and punching 

1786
01:24:52,840 --> 01:24:55,160
and stuff when he's in a 
compromised state, and we saw 

1787
01:24:55,200 --> 01:24:59,000
that in Minority Report when 
he's like fumbling around blind 

1788
01:24:59,000 --> 01:25:00,640
and stuff, and he's really good 
at here. 

1789
01:25:00,760 --> 01:25:03,440
One move in the fight 
choreography makes me laugh 

1790
01:25:03,440 --> 01:25:05,480
every time I see it though. 
Which is when he's because he's 

1791
01:25:05,480 --> 01:25:07,840
keeps driving his temples 
because his head hurts and he 

1792
01:25:07,840 --> 01:25:10,480
hits Damien twice by twatting 
with each of his elbow. 

1793
01:25:10,600 --> 01:25:12,400
Strikes was so silly, I loved 
it. 

1794
01:25:12,800 --> 01:25:15,920
So silly but very fun. 
Very good. 

1795
01:25:16,120 --> 01:25:20,320
Also, the way he dispatches 
Damien Davian is just 

1796
01:25:20,320 --> 01:25:22,320
ridiculous. 
So they tumbled into the street,

1797
01:25:22,440 --> 01:25:25,680
and it just so happens that, 
like, a friendly assassin truck 

1798
01:25:25,840 --> 01:25:29,000
happens to be flying around. 
So he holds him up and he gets 

1799
01:25:29,000 --> 01:25:30,600
his, like, head smashed by a 
truck. 

1800
01:25:30,600 --> 01:25:33,040
Yeah, just like. 
Fucking how convenient. 

1801
01:25:33,600 --> 01:25:35,760
You know what I mean? 
You don't even see the body 

1802
01:25:35,760 --> 01:25:38,200
because you know, that's big. 
Be like blow and smooth off, 

1803
01:25:38,200 --> 01:25:39,600
right? 
I mean, yeah. 

1804
01:25:39,640 --> 01:25:41,800
I mean, yeah. 
It's amazing there's not more 

1805
01:25:41,800 --> 01:25:46,040
blood on Ethan Wild. 
Yeah, it's pretty bad. 

1806
01:25:46,560 --> 01:25:50,720
Bit of an actually climax, I 
think for for this, like for 

1807
01:25:50,720 --> 01:25:53,800
this brilliant villain. 
We've had a tremendous villain, 

1808
01:25:53,880 --> 01:25:55,640
really, really good. 
And then he just kind of gets 

1809
01:25:55,640 --> 01:25:58,760
like taken up by like a fucking 
on the other hand, kind of nice,

1810
01:25:58,760 --> 01:26:00,520
kind of poetic. 
You know, you can be the most 

1811
01:26:00,520 --> 01:26:04,440
powerful guy in the world, but 
there's no account thing for a 

1812
01:26:04,440 --> 01:26:07,680
driver in Shanghai. 
Yeah, I mean, he's gotten taken 

1813
01:26:07,680 --> 01:26:10,160
up with traffic. 
As well erotic because talk is 

1814
01:26:10,160 --> 01:26:12,120
cover stories, being a traffic 
guy. 

1815
01:26:12,200 --> 01:26:13,720
Exactly. 
Yeah, bang. 

1816
01:26:14,440 --> 01:26:17,800
You loaded the traffic and has 
killed his opponent. 

1817
01:26:18,200 --> 01:26:20,200
I love it, I love it. 
Department for Transport for the

1818
01:26:20,200 --> 01:26:21,880
Wind. 
We've dug in something really 

1819
01:26:21,880 --> 01:26:24,440
deep here guys. 
I wonder if any other podcasts 

1820
01:26:25,040 --> 01:26:27,920
have mentioned this. 
You know, that's the ripple 

1821
01:26:27,920 --> 01:26:29,560
effect, the traffic taking them 
out. 

1822
01:26:29,560 --> 01:26:31,400
Smooth off man. 
That's it. 

1823
01:26:31,600 --> 01:26:34,880
Two hours ago, somewhere halfway
like 3 miles up the road, 

1824
01:26:35,040 --> 01:26:37,440
someone pumped on their brakes 
for two seconds. 

1825
01:26:37,440 --> 01:26:40,200
Yeah, and now when Davian's been
decapitated. 

1826
01:26:40,240 --> 01:26:43,320
Yeah, you see man. 
Ethan gets back into the 

1827
01:26:43,320 --> 01:26:44,640
building. 
No one follows him, by the way. 

1828
01:26:44,640 --> 01:26:47,200
No one wants to know why he was 
fighting with that man who just 

1829
01:26:47,200 --> 01:26:48,320
died, which is really funny. 
I. 

1830
01:26:48,600 --> 01:26:50,200
Just want to quickly circle back
for a second. 

1831
01:26:50,600 --> 01:26:54,320
If I was a random Chinese guy in
a Chinese town going about my 

1832
01:26:54,320 --> 01:26:57,680
business and two random white 
dudes I haven't seen before have

1833
01:26:57,680 --> 01:27:00,720
a fucking Barney in the street, 
then one of them gets killed by 

1834
01:27:00,720 --> 01:27:04,200
a truck, I too am going about my
business and not asking too many

1835
01:27:04,200 --> 01:27:05,480
questions. 
Right, cool. 

1836
01:27:05,560 --> 01:27:07,720
Then he basically gets himself 
onto the deck, doesn't he? 

1837
01:27:07,760 --> 01:27:10,560
Fills his mouth with tongue 
presses, tells Julia that he 

1838
01:27:10,560 --> 01:27:13,880
loves her, and then to flip the 
switch, very short, down, off 

1839
01:27:13,920 --> 01:27:16,440
on, and then back off again. 
Very, very important for the 

1840
01:27:16,440 --> 01:27:19,520
off, which knocks him out and 
obviously puts him into cardiac 

1841
01:27:19,520 --> 01:27:22,280
arrest. 
And then what we have is Julia 

1842
01:27:22,280 --> 01:27:23,840
flips the switch. 
A hot stopping current 

1843
01:27:23,840 --> 01:27:25,120
electricity courses through 
Ethan. 

1844
01:27:25,200 --> 01:27:27,560
His whole body tenses. 
Julia flips the switch off. 

1845
01:27:27,600 --> 01:27:30,440
Ethan falls dead to the ground. 
Suddenly bullets ricochet all 

1846
01:27:30,440 --> 01:27:32,280
around Julia. 
The pursuing guards have found 

1847
01:27:32,280 --> 01:27:36,400
them in the clinic. 
She does a very cool thing where

1848
01:27:37,200 --> 01:27:39,800
she one guy comes in, starts 
clattering her out. 

1849
01:27:39,800 --> 01:27:44,000
The place she hides behind the 
wall sees his reflection in like

1850
01:27:44,000 --> 01:27:46,600
a refrigerator or something and 
then shoots him. 

1851
01:27:47,120 --> 01:27:50,320
And then as she turns around, 
Musgrave has entered the room 

1852
01:27:50,560 --> 01:27:54,160
and she puts like 9 rounds. 
She puts, she uses all 15 in 

1853
01:27:54,160 --> 01:27:57,080
killing the first guy, changes 
the mag and then she uses like 9

1854
01:27:57,080 --> 01:27:58,920
rounds on the next guy who's 
Musgrave. 

1855
01:27:59,400 --> 01:28:06,480
And then just and then she like 
uses CPR on Ethan, who he wakes 

1856
01:28:06,480 --> 01:28:10,400
up, bolts upright, picks up the 
gun and points it at the the 

1857
01:28:10,400 --> 01:28:12,760
dead body of Musgrave. 
And it's like you do you do 

1858
01:28:12,760 --> 01:28:14,720
this. 
It was you cool. 

1859
01:28:15,440 --> 01:28:16,640
It was you. 
It was you. 

1860
01:28:18,080 --> 01:28:23,360
And then it has them walking 
outside like nothing's wrong at 

1861
01:28:23,360 --> 01:28:25,320
all. 
And Ethan's there, Robert's foot

1862
01:28:25,320 --> 01:28:28,360
in one hand, the girl in the 
other, strolling down the down 

1863
01:28:28,360 --> 01:28:30,320
the road. 
And she was like, I was just 

1864
01:28:30,320 --> 01:28:33,120
thinking, maybe you might want 
to tell me why we're in China. 

1865
01:28:34,840 --> 01:28:38,320
And he's like, I know. 
And she's like, I work for an 

1866
01:28:38,320 --> 01:28:41,760
agency called IMF and she's 
like, what does that stand for? 

1867
01:28:41,760 --> 01:28:43,760
And he goes impossible mission 
force. 

1868
01:28:44,000 --> 01:28:47,280
And she's like, shut up, fuck 
off. 

1869
01:28:47,280 --> 01:28:52,320
Fuck off mud the lies lengths 
men will go to to get a woman. 

1870
01:28:52,320 --> 01:28:57,320
Men would rather join the IMF 
and go to therapy. 

1871
01:28:57,880 --> 01:29:00,120
Yeah. 
And then we get the final scene,

1872
01:29:00,120 --> 01:29:03,120
which is like, everything's all 
toasty and warm. 

1873
01:29:03,120 --> 01:29:05,720
They they're back at the IMF in 
Langley. 

1874
01:29:06,960 --> 01:29:10,040
Was fish bones like, hey, aren't
you glad I'm not the bad guy? 

1875
01:29:10,440 --> 01:29:12,880
The White House has been calling
about a job they want you to do.

1876
01:29:12,880 --> 01:29:14,160
And he's like, do you want to 
know about it? 

1877
01:29:14,160 --> 01:29:15,800
And he's like, I want to go on 
my honeymoon. 

1878
01:29:16,120 --> 01:29:18,280
He's like, OK, off you go, you 
crazy kids. 

1879
01:29:18,440 --> 01:29:21,840
Meanwhile, Judy is like talking 
to all his friends like Benji 

1880
01:29:21,840 --> 01:29:24,120
and and Luther. 
And they're probably saying like

1881
01:29:24,120 --> 01:29:29,440
the most heinous shit about 
Ethan and she's laughing like 

1882
01:29:29,440 --> 01:29:30,800
that. 
This is this is very military 

1883
01:29:30,800 --> 01:29:35,480
coded like probably they're 
probably like telling her like 

1884
01:29:35,480 --> 01:29:37,800
the most horrific stories, but 
the things he's done while they 

1885
01:29:37,800 --> 01:29:40,480
been on OPS and all these 
various European destinations. 

1886
01:29:40,520 --> 01:29:42,080
The time when they went to four 
floors with them. 

1887
01:29:42,240 --> 01:29:46,040
Yeah, yeah, Gets gets pretty 
lonely in those OPS room vans. 

1888
01:29:48,560 --> 01:29:50,520
I once watched. 
I once watched Ethan take a shit

1889
01:29:50,520 --> 01:29:52,440
into a bucket because he didn't 
want to break his cover. 

1890
01:29:52,720 --> 01:29:53,840
Like, there's that kind of shit,
isn't it? 

1891
01:29:54,360 --> 01:29:56,680
And then finally, oh, there's an
extra scene that we didn't see. 

1892
01:29:56,680 --> 01:29:59,120
So in the in the movie, it ends 
with them walking towards the 

1893
01:29:59,120 --> 01:30:03,160
camera down the corridor in slow
in slow motion, music taking 

1894
01:30:03,160 --> 01:30:04,840
over. 
And then it fades to black and 

1895
01:30:04,840 --> 01:30:06,720
it's the end of the film. 
Luther, they're going on their 

1896
01:30:06,720 --> 01:30:10,120
honeymoon. 
IMF erupts into applause in 

1897
01:30:10,120 --> 01:30:12,160
cheers. 
We watch from a distance. 

1898
01:30:12,360 --> 01:30:16,040
Ethan and Julia walk off. 
We fade to white, white as blank

1899
01:30:16,040 --> 01:30:19,360
as a page. 
The quiet sound of wind, then 3 

1900
01:30:19,360 --> 01:30:23,280
or 4 shushing and then two tiny 
specks appear, slowly dropping 

1901
01:30:23,280 --> 01:30:26,040
from top of frame and you 
realise this is a massive long 

1902
01:30:26,040 --> 01:30:29,720
shot of pristine snow, a steep 
mountain and those specks of 

1903
01:30:29,720 --> 01:30:32,360
figures. 
We are exterior Mountain Day. 

1904
01:30:32,480 --> 01:30:34,600
It's Ethan and Julia Heli 
boarding. 

1905
01:30:34,760 --> 01:30:37,840
Long lens shots catch them as 
they cut through the snow like 

1906
01:30:37,840 --> 01:30:40,640
they're flying. 
An exhilarating ride, just the 

1907
01:30:40,640 --> 01:30:43,080
two of them against the 
mountain, against the world's 

1908
01:30:43,200 --> 01:30:45,400
husband and wife. 
No more secrets. 

1909
01:30:45,560 --> 01:30:49,120
And our final song begins, 
Driving pounds, lifting our 

1910
01:30:49,120 --> 01:30:51,960
spirits, and it soars as we the 
end. 

1911
01:30:52,440 --> 01:30:55,640
Everybody on the bus stands up 
and claps. 

1912
01:30:56,120 --> 01:30:58,640
Claps. 
Wow, that's amazing. 

1913
01:30:58,760 --> 01:31:00,960
Fucking God. 
We've seen enough, we don't need

1914
01:31:00,960 --> 01:31:03,600
to see the heli boarding. 
Wow, such a frillway line about 

1915
01:31:03,600 --> 01:31:05,400
heli boarding at the very 
beginning of the film as well. 

1916
01:31:05,400 --> 01:31:07,360
You're not going to remember 
that he's watching? 

1917
01:31:07,360 --> 01:31:08,440
Like what the fuck are you 
doing? 

1918
01:31:09,960 --> 01:31:11,640
He likes his holiday as though, 
doesn't he? 

1919
01:31:12,200 --> 01:31:14,680
Like he? 
Yeah, he gets a lot of annual 

1920
01:31:14,680 --> 01:31:17,880
leave for this job, you know. 
Oh yeah, he's he's not hanging 

1921
01:31:17,880 --> 01:31:21,560
out for to use his Ala. 
He's yeah, he's he's all over 

1922
01:31:21,560 --> 01:31:23,360
the place. 
The start of Mission 2, he's 

1923
01:31:23,360 --> 01:31:25,400
like just free climbing up a 
mountain. 

1924
01:31:25,400 --> 01:31:28,600
It's like, dude, when you like, 
well, the amount of excitement 

1925
01:31:28,600 --> 01:31:31,040
you get in your day-to-day job 
when you want to just like, I 

1926
01:31:31,080 --> 01:31:33,360
don't know, get like a fucking 
canal boat or something. 

1927
01:31:33,560 --> 01:31:36,840
Yeah, if I was doing, I was 
doing this kind of shit, I would

1928
01:31:36,920 --> 01:31:39,960
not be doing anything in the 
slightest exciting for my 

1929
01:31:39,960 --> 01:31:41,880
holiday. 
I would disappear somewhere very

1930
01:31:41,880 --> 01:31:45,160
quiet and and just not. 
Go to the Winchester and wait 

1931
01:31:45,160 --> 01:31:47,400
for all this to blow over. 
Exactly. 

1932
01:32:41,800 --> 01:32:47,800
Is the last thing you should be 
concerned about, Ethan. 

1933
01:32:49,360 --> 01:32:52,640
So we're back now for some 
categories about this most 

1934
01:32:52,640 --> 01:32:56,040
excellent films, starting off as
we've done before casting. 

1935
01:32:56,120 --> 01:32:59,200
You can't really kind of fuck 
with Tom Cruise's career if we 

1936
01:32:59,200 --> 01:33:00,800
want to talk about films and 
stuff. 

1937
01:33:01,360 --> 01:33:05,760
But I do find it interesting to 
the reason Jeremy Renner was 

1938
01:33:05,760 --> 01:33:09,280
cast in the next film is because
some people were sort of trying 

1939
01:33:09,280 --> 01:33:12,200
to soft prepare for him to take 
over, weren't they? 

1940
01:33:12,200 --> 01:33:15,960
They were kind of soft preparing
for that, I think so. 

1941
01:33:15,960 --> 01:33:17,840
I've heard discourse about it, 
yeah. 

1942
01:33:18,600 --> 01:33:21,440
Trying to make him the newborn 
particulars, they tried to make 

1943
01:33:21,440 --> 01:33:24,600
him the new mission thing. 
Everyone tried to make Jeremy 

1944
01:33:24,600 --> 01:33:27,720
Renner a thing for a while. 
Yeah, stop trying to make Jeremy

1945
01:33:27,720 --> 01:33:29,240
Runner happen. 
It's not going to happen. 

1946
01:33:29,280 --> 01:33:31,000
He was really good in Hawkeye, 
he was good. 

1947
01:33:31,440 --> 01:33:34,000
Yeah, yeah. 
But yeah, like the the really 

1948
01:33:34,000 --> 01:33:38,520
gave it a go because he was in 
the Born Legacy, Bourne Legacy, 

1949
01:33:38,560 --> 01:33:40,000
Bourne Legacy. 
That's right. 

1950
01:33:40,000 --> 01:33:41,560
Tony Gilroy is The Bourne 
Legacy. 

1951
01:33:41,640 --> 01:33:44,240
Hey, yeah, excellent. 
It would have been interesting 

1952
01:33:44,240 --> 01:33:48,320
to see how how the franchise had
gone if you had taken over. 

1953
01:33:48,320 --> 01:33:51,480
I don't think would have had the
same like insane level of stunts

1954
01:33:51,480 --> 01:33:54,640
and stuff because because he's 
not like nobody's as 

1955
01:33:54,640 --> 01:33:56,240
indestructible as Tom Cruise, 
right? 

1956
01:33:56,280 --> 01:33:59,160
The films would have gone a very
different direction, I think, 

1957
01:34:00,000 --> 01:34:02,800
much, much like a different 
direction that probably would 

1958
01:34:02,800 --> 01:34:05,640
have gone if our friend from 
Smoking Aces. 

1959
01:34:06,200 --> 01:34:10,840
I've got the director's job. 
Yeah, so was smoking a business.

1960
01:34:10,840 --> 01:34:13,800
Probably wouldn't have happened.
Yeah, like smoking. 

1961
01:34:13,800 --> 01:34:15,240
This has not already come out by
that point. 

1962
01:34:15,240 --> 01:34:18,200
No come it comes. 
Well, it came out in 2006. 

1963
01:34:18,200 --> 01:34:20,800
It came out instead of. 
It's the project he worked on. 

1964
01:34:20,960 --> 01:34:23,600
That's right, yeah. 
Because he, he spent like 15 

1965
01:34:23,600 --> 01:34:24,960
months developing this, didn't 
he? 

1966
01:34:25,920 --> 01:34:30,800
And then obviously that didn't 
happen. 

1967
01:34:30,800 --> 01:34:34,640
I heard it was going to be like 
darker, grittier and more like 

1968
01:34:34,640 --> 01:34:38,320
Shades of Grey and a bit more 
kind of harsher on the US 

1969
01:34:38,320 --> 01:34:41,400
government kind of thing, ah. 
This is a good point to talk 

1970
01:34:41,400 --> 01:34:42,800
about this, actually. 
Yeah, there's a whole bunch of 

1971
01:34:42,800 --> 01:34:44,720
different characters. 
So basically a completely 

1972
01:34:44,720 --> 01:34:47,920
different story on this. 
So Sandoval Newton was 

1973
01:34:47,920 --> 01:34:51,880
approached to to reprise her 
character from MI 2 and she she 

1974
01:34:51,880 --> 01:34:54,080
declined, which I think was 
probably why she was spent time 

1975
01:34:54,080 --> 01:34:55,320
with her family. 
She had a young family. 

1976
01:34:55,320 --> 01:34:57,520
They introduced some new 
characters. 

1977
01:34:57,520 --> 01:35:00,040
One was going to be played by 
Carrie Anne Moss, as we would 

1978
01:35:00,040 --> 01:35:02,680
have had we've had Morpheus and 
Trinity in this movie. 

1979
01:35:02,680 --> 01:35:05,840
That'd been cool. 
But she she pulled out as as 

1980
01:35:05,840 --> 01:35:08,400
part of the delays. 
Scarlett Johansson was going to 

1981
01:35:08,400 --> 01:35:11,960
be in this film as well, but 
couldn't, couldn't commit to it.

1982
01:35:12,640 --> 01:35:17,320
And instead of Philip Seymour 
Hoffman as Owen Davian, it was 

1983
01:35:17,320 --> 01:35:21,480
initially cast as a Kenneth 
Branner, which would have been a

1984
01:35:21,480 --> 01:35:23,640
very different vibe, I think for
the character. 

1985
01:35:24,600 --> 01:35:27,320
Maybe still good, but I think 
we've, I think we've seen what 

1986
01:35:27,320 --> 01:35:29,680
he would have done. 
We're going to talk about it 

1987
01:35:29,680 --> 01:35:32,360
very soon, actually, in Shutter 
Recruit. 

1988
01:35:32,720 --> 01:35:35,120
Yeah, I think that's probably 
where we're going to find the 

1989
01:35:35,120 --> 01:35:37,520
kind of Brunner villain that 
would have been most like the 

1990
01:35:37,520 --> 01:35:38,960
one he would have done here. 
Yeah. 

1991
01:35:39,200 --> 01:35:41,760
Or, or Tenets. 
Did you watch Tenet? 

1992
01:35:41,760 --> 01:35:44,920
I never did, but I'm aware both 
of them have him using a silly 

1993
01:35:44,920 --> 01:35:48,280
Russian accent. 
So indeed, the Joe Carnahan 

1994
01:35:48,280 --> 01:35:51,680
version of Mission Impossible 
would have been mental, I think.

1995
01:35:52,520 --> 01:35:55,360
Yeah, I, I don't, I don't think 
Tom Cruise would have vibe with 

1996
01:35:55,360 --> 01:35:56,920
it. 
In fact, obviously creative 

1997
01:35:56,920 --> 01:35:58,760
differences indicate that he 
didn't vibe with it. 

1998
01:35:58,920 --> 01:36:01,440
Yeah. 
So yeah, I mean. 

1999
01:36:01,440 --> 01:36:03,920
You know me, man. 
I'll, I'll fight in the street 

2000
01:36:03,920 --> 01:36:07,400
with my shirt off for smoking 
aces and, and probably will do 

2001
01:36:07,400 --> 01:36:09,640
one day. 
But I think Joe Conahan would 

2002
01:36:09,640 --> 01:36:12,920
have kind of killed the 
franchise if he'd if he'd if 

2003
01:36:12,920 --> 01:36:16,040
he'd worked on it. 
If it had been like his dialogue

2004
01:36:16,040 --> 01:36:18,640
and stuff as well that you put 
into it, I just don't see that 

2005
01:36:18,640 --> 01:36:21,800
working. 
All those all the all that 

2006
01:36:21,800 --> 01:36:25,160
constant joking and banter and 
in the Can you imagine a scene 

2007
01:36:25,160 --> 01:36:28,200
where like Ethan Hunt is 
manipulating the draw of a dead 

2008
01:36:28,200 --> 01:36:29,440
henchman and making him talk to 
him? 

2009
01:36:29,440 --> 01:36:34,120
Okay, going on from casting to 
trivia, the bunch of a trivia 

2010
01:36:34,120 --> 01:36:36,440
that I had down here. 
We touched on the whole thing 

2011
01:36:36,440 --> 01:36:39,840
with a Comedy Central South Park
the the trapped in the closet 

2012
01:36:39,840 --> 01:36:43,400
episode when Tom Cruise 
threatened to cancel allegedly 

2013
01:36:43,400 --> 01:36:46,120
allegedly were doing a lot of 
heavy lifting for everyone's 

2014
01:36:46,120 --> 01:36:49,520
protection here allegedly 
threatened to cancel publicity 

2015
01:36:49,520 --> 01:36:52,000
if the film of comedy Cent were 
rebroadcasted. 

2016
01:36:52,000 --> 01:36:55,360
That trapped in the closet 
episode, the one that mocked him

2017
01:36:55,480 --> 01:36:59,800
for his Scientology and really 
gave him the business and indeed

2018
01:36:59,800 --> 01:37:02,400
it was. 
It was actually taken off the 

2019
01:37:02,400 --> 01:37:04,360
air. 
Here's a thing on the subject of

2020
01:37:04,360 --> 01:37:08,640
traps in the closet. 
Have you, Sonia, seen Trapped in

2021
01:37:08,640 --> 01:37:10,840
the Closet, the R Kelly R&B 
opera? 

2022
01:37:11,960 --> 01:37:15,440
No. 
So it's not, it's real and it's 

2023
01:37:15,440 --> 01:37:17,960
very, very long. 
And I was watching a clip of it 

2024
01:37:17,960 --> 01:37:20,080
the other day. 
She said, don't ask me how. 

2025
01:37:20,320 --> 01:37:21,840
So yeah. 
So I was watching a clip of the 

2026
01:37:21,840 --> 01:37:25,120
day and Michael K Williams is in
it and I completely brain dumped

2027
01:37:25,120 --> 01:37:26,600
that. 
So that's that's Omar in The 

2028
01:37:26,600 --> 01:37:29,480
Wire. 
It is an unhinged film, yeah. 

2029
01:37:29,480 --> 01:37:31,800
And that's the same year as the 
Wire came out. 

2030
01:37:32,040 --> 01:37:33,640
It's mental, right? 
It's nuts. 

2031
01:37:34,280 --> 01:37:34,680
Yeah. 
Crazy. 

2032
01:37:34,680 --> 01:37:36,840
Imagine, imagine being in that 
film. 

2033
01:37:37,680 --> 01:37:44,240
God, man, man, just when in this
a very short small gentleman and

2034
01:37:44,240 --> 01:37:46,880
R Kelly's egg. 
It's a man, but the man is a 

2035
01:37:46,880 --> 01:37:50,440
Midget. 
And and and like and and and 

2036
01:37:50,440 --> 01:37:52,400
like. 
Why they call you big man? 

2037
01:37:52,400 --> 01:37:55,560
Because I'm blessed. 
It's like, what the fuck even is

2038
01:37:55,560 --> 01:37:59,560
this film? 
Jesus, that's my point, Sonia, 

2039
01:37:59,560 --> 01:38:02,400
that it's the same track of 
music over and over again. 

2040
01:38:02,480 --> 01:38:04,520
It doesn't change. 
It's the same backing for the 

2041
01:38:04,520 --> 01:38:07,360
whole thing and the film, the 
films like an hour plus at least

2042
01:38:07,360 --> 01:38:11,000
like 20 parts, 20 parts. 
It's it's insane and it's like a

2043
01:38:11,000 --> 01:38:13,040
super plot. 
And then the end of it was 

2044
01:38:13,040 --> 01:38:17,040
everyone's got aids and what? 
It's insane. 

2045
01:38:17,040 --> 01:38:20,280
And every single episode ends 
with R Kelly repeating the last 

2046
01:38:20,280 --> 01:38:23,880
line he sang as he kind of like 
dissolves into like favour and 

2047
01:38:23,880 --> 01:38:25,560
favour out of frame. 
It's really weird. 

2048
01:38:25,960 --> 01:38:28,280
Bad. 
The one you will, the 1 you will

2049
01:38:28,280 --> 01:38:31,080
see all the time, if you look at
like the world still does the 

2050
01:38:31,080 --> 01:38:34,080
rounds on like Instagram reels 
and stuff is the scene where a 

2051
01:38:34,080 --> 01:38:37,600
guy played by Michael K Williams
is finding his wife's lover that

2052
01:38:37,600 --> 01:38:41,200
she's taken. 
And as R Kelly reveals, the man 

2053
01:38:41,200 --> 01:38:44,640
turns out to be a little person 
who's hiding under the sink. 

2054
01:38:45,080 --> 01:38:46,880
And it's like a reveal. 
Like they open the sink and 

2055
01:38:46,880 --> 01:38:48,840
there's a man there and he's a 
little man. 

2056
01:38:49,000 --> 01:38:51,800
And then R Kelly's just stood 
there going, but the man was a 

2057
01:38:51,800 --> 01:38:56,880
Midget, Midget, Midget, Midget. 
And then and then that fades 

2058
01:38:56,880 --> 01:38:59,320
out. 
And then because it's like the 

2059
01:38:59,320 --> 01:39:01,720
middle of the story, it just 
fades back in again. 

2060
01:39:01,720 --> 01:39:04,040
It just starts the next bit. 
It's absolutely nuts. 

2061
01:39:04,040 --> 01:39:06,200
I think it was released like, 
was it really such a web series 

2062
01:39:06,200 --> 01:39:07,440
or something? 
It was mental. 

2063
01:39:07,880 --> 01:39:10,400
Really. 
Summer Redstone of Paramount at 

2064
01:39:10,400 --> 01:39:12,640
the side not to renew the 
distribution rights after this 

2065
01:39:12,640 --> 01:39:14,800
film. 
And a lot of that was due to Tom

2066
01:39:14,800 --> 01:39:17,920
Cruise's couch jumping on on the
Oprah Winfrey Show. 

2067
01:39:17,960 --> 01:39:21,280
Yeah, she was disgusted by his 
antics. 

2068
01:39:21,280 --> 01:39:25,200
Apparently, Jen said mind cannot
comprehend how weird the Tom 

2069
01:39:25,200 --> 01:39:27,200
Cruise jumping on the couch 
thing was when it happened. 

2070
01:39:27,200 --> 01:39:29,360
The Chan said mind cannot 
comprehend that. 

2071
01:39:29,360 --> 01:39:33,040
Sorry Sonia, but but it's like, 
it was so weird. 

2072
01:39:33,720 --> 01:39:36,800
It's just. 
Was it not giving love to much 

2073
01:39:36,840 --> 01:39:41,360
latter? 
You you've lives in under the 

2074
01:39:41,360 --> 01:39:45,760
shadow of of the post, the post 
Trump world for too long. 

2075
01:39:46,080 --> 01:39:48,800
Like like that was really that 
was really weird when that 

2076
01:39:48,800 --> 01:39:50,200
happened. 
Like it was just like he the 

2077
01:39:50,200 --> 01:39:52,960
waves overreacting the way he 
got married to like, Katie 

2078
01:39:52,960 --> 01:39:55,640
Holmes from Dawson's Creek. 
Katie Holmes. 

2079
01:39:55,720 --> 01:39:59,880
I'm with Katie Holmes in in 
current year, nobody's pay our 

2080
01:39:59,880 --> 01:40:02,400
hands. 
From the allegations. 

2081
01:40:02,920 --> 01:40:06,760
The Overton window has moved far
too far for that to look weird 

2082
01:40:06,760 --> 01:40:08,480
anymore. 
Like, like we've seen, we've 

2083
01:40:08,480 --> 01:40:10,560
seen too much weird stuff. 
You know, in a world where 

2084
01:40:10,560 --> 01:40:13,280
Dakota Johnson called Ellen for 
not inviting her to a party that

2085
01:40:13,280 --> 01:40:14,760
doesn't. 
Yeah. 

2086
01:40:15,840 --> 01:40:17,720
This pales like embarrassing 
now, but. 

2087
01:40:17,840 --> 01:40:19,840
Yeah, it's like the whole thing 
with like army hammer on 

2088
01:40:19,840 --> 01:40:21,760
cannibalism and stuff and it's 
like. 

2089
01:40:22,360 --> 01:40:24,640
Yeah, that's, that's shifted 
things too far, isn't it? 

2090
01:40:24,960 --> 01:40:26,400
Like now it's still going back 
from that. 

2091
01:40:26,400 --> 01:40:28,360
I mean, he's he's not going 
back, is he? 

2092
01:40:28,480 --> 01:40:30,600
It's really a maritime before 
he's a Ben Shapiro film, isn't. 

2093
01:40:31,200 --> 01:40:34,680
It. 
Like Jonathan Majors, Joseph 

2094
01:40:34,720 --> 01:40:36,720
Major is making his own right 
wing version of Sinners, 

2095
01:40:36,720 --> 01:40:39,560
apparently. 
Oh my God, bloody hell, the 

2096
01:40:39,560 --> 01:40:42,400
David Fincher version of this 
would have been wild. 

2097
01:40:42,400 --> 01:40:45,560
The basic storyline of it was 
going to deal with black market 

2098
01:40:45,560 --> 01:40:49,360
trade of body parts in Africa. 
Now that's cool as fuck. 

2099
01:40:49,360 --> 01:40:51,800
That's incredibly, incredibly 
David Fincher. 

2100
01:40:53,040 --> 01:40:56,760
No, it's, I mean, organ lagging 
is not Mission Impossible. 

2101
01:40:57,240 --> 01:41:00,760
It's I'm so pleased to God use 
the word organ lagging. 

2102
01:41:00,800 --> 01:41:03,520
He would just be literal about 
the rabbits. 

2103
01:41:03,960 --> 01:41:06,640
Parts yeah, but it's like for 
the rabbit's foot. 

2104
01:41:06,840 --> 01:41:10,120
I got the humans first. 
I got the humans ass everything 

2105
01:41:10,120 --> 01:41:12,000
you need. 
There's so many fantastic what 

2106
01:41:12,000 --> 01:41:14,000
might have been with this film 
and what are those as you 

2107
01:41:14,000 --> 01:41:18,280
correct David David Fincher 
applying his Zodiac and seven 

2108
01:41:18,280 --> 01:41:21,840
and literally Mindhunter esque 
chops to this film. 

2109
01:41:21,840 --> 01:41:24,040
I will. 
I will say that Zodiac is aged 

2110
01:41:24,080 --> 01:41:26,320
better than this film has in 
terms of it's just a real luck. 

2111
01:41:26,360 --> 01:41:27,920
Like the vibe of it. 
Yeah. 

2112
01:41:27,920 --> 01:41:30,160
Like, this is a bit. 
This is dated into the early 

2113
01:41:30,160 --> 01:41:33,600
naughties in a way that that 
Zodiac and the films he did, he 

2114
01:41:33,760 --> 01:41:37,720
had a really good run from 
probably Zodiac up to before 

2115
01:41:37,720 --> 01:41:40,880
Monk. 
So Zodiac, social network, gone 

2116
01:41:40,880 --> 01:41:42,280
Girl, girl with the Dragon 
Tattoo. 

2117
01:41:42,440 --> 01:41:45,600
Those four look pristine. 
And then he kind of went a bit 

2118
01:41:45,600 --> 01:41:48,760
mad with Monk and then the 
killer is a bit, I don't know, 

2119
01:41:48,920 --> 01:41:52,920
maybe here nor there wasn't sold
on it, but those four are what a

2120
01:41:52,920 --> 01:41:55,040
run. 
Along with David Fincher and 

2121
01:41:55,040 --> 01:41:58,520
when he was attached, Sylvester 
Stallone was being courted the 

2122
01:41:58,520 --> 01:42:01,240
main villain, which would have 
been really fucking bad. 

2123
01:42:01,240 --> 01:42:03,000
Stop. 
Making it have happened. 

2124
01:42:03,000 --> 01:42:06,200
Stop trying to make that happen.
It's like, so David was in 

2125
01:42:06,200 --> 01:42:07,280
Randall this year. 
Yeah. 

2126
01:42:07,400 --> 01:42:09,280
Yeah. 
So David Fincher. 

2127
01:42:09,400 --> 01:42:11,160
Cool, awesome. 
Love it. 

2128
01:42:11,240 --> 01:42:15,200
We had organ lagging plot in 
Africa. 

2129
01:42:15,200 --> 01:42:18,400
OK, kind of cool. 
Kind of it was, it's not going 

2130
01:42:18,400 --> 01:42:20,640
to feel like Mission Impossible,
but it's going to be kind of fun

2131
01:42:20,640 --> 01:42:23,240
and interesting, right? 
It's going to be grimy David 

2132
01:42:23,240 --> 01:42:25,560
Fincher and who? 
Who's this walking into the room

2133
01:42:25,840 --> 01:42:31,240
fucking the guy who's going to 
be full of blood Morgans. 

2134
01:42:31,240 --> 01:42:33,200
What the fuck? 
It wouldn't have worked in the 

2135
01:42:33,200 --> 01:42:36,440
slightest. 
There is a thriller called The 

2136
01:42:36,440 --> 01:42:40,920
Humpty Dumpty Man and it's like.
Is he an egg? 

2137
01:42:41,400 --> 01:42:44,560
He's not an egg. 
He is not an egg. 

2138
01:42:44,600 --> 01:42:46,800
I'm devastated. 
He's a, he's an Australian, 

2139
01:42:46,800 --> 01:42:48,960
which is maybe kind of like an 
egg, I don't know. 

2140
01:42:49,560 --> 01:42:51,240
He's not an egg, but he is 
Australian. 

2141
01:42:52,160 --> 01:42:59,560
Yep, it is a Australian 
television movie from 1986, a 

2142
01:42:59,560 --> 01:43:04,360
drama slash thriller. 
It's based on the ALP politician

2143
01:43:04,360 --> 01:43:06,160
David Combe affair. 
I'm sorry. 

2144
01:43:06,160 --> 01:43:09,840
Shadow is a trade consultant who
accepts the Soviet trade 

2145
01:43:09,840 --> 01:43:12,760
contract and is accused of 
international espionage. 

2146
01:43:13,200 --> 01:43:15,840
The movie was not released 
theatrically. 

2147
01:43:16,040 --> 01:43:21,160
That's it's entire summary here 
in in in the Wikipedia man after

2148
01:43:21,160 --> 01:43:24,280
like the info box. 
So Humpty Dumpty Man's 1986

01:43:32,200 --> 01:43:33,880
Is that Crocodile Dundee? 
Yes. 

2153
01:43:34,800 --> 01:43:37,600

wedding. 
Peter Pan Confessions were 

2159
01:43:49,240 --> 01:43:52,720
shopaholic. 
He is not the Paul Hogan. 

2160
01:43:53,240 --> 01:43:55,120
Oh, he's not Paul Hogan. 
Oh, you're going to be so 

2161
01:43:55,120 --> 01:43:56,040
excited. 
Yeah. 

2162
01:43:56,080 --> 01:43:58,640
No, he is. 
He is not the Paul Hogan 

2163
01:43:59,160 --> 01:44:01,760
everybody. 
Wrote yours wedding, he wrote my

2164
01:44:01,760 --> 01:44:03,680
best friend's wedding. 
Watched that. 

2165
01:44:03,800 --> 01:44:05,960
Yeah, last week. 
Yeah, he directed murals. 

2166
01:44:05,960 --> 01:44:07,800
Didn't like it? 
Really shit. 

2167
01:44:07,880 --> 01:44:09,760
I didn't wish. 
It should write this from the 

2168
01:44:09,760 --> 01:44:13,080
list and Kazak, you also wrote 
Confessions of a shopaholic 

2169
01:44:13,120 --> 01:44:16,240
filmography of this guy. 
The The first film he wrote was 

2170
01:44:16,240 --> 01:44:20,120
a short film called Getting Wet 
in 1984, followed up with The 

2171
01:44:20,120 --> 01:44:23,760
Humpty Dumpty Man, written and 
directed of. 

2172
01:44:24,680 --> 01:44:26,480
Shapiro Films. 
My God. 

2173
01:44:26,480 --> 01:44:28,760
Holy shit, I thought half. 
Yeah. 

2174
01:44:29,040 --> 01:44:32,200
Dune, the movie about Pat 
Shapiro's wife. 

2175
01:44:32,200 --> 01:44:34,200
Brutal. 
But yeah. 

2176
01:44:34,200 --> 01:44:35,040
So. 
Yeah. 

2177
01:44:35,040 --> 01:44:37,240
So. 
Bedroom like I must cultivate 

2178
01:44:37,240 --> 01:44:41,920
desert power. 
Umm so the Humpty Dumpty Man was

2179
01:44:41,920 --> 01:44:45,560
not released theatrically, but I
think we should track it down to

2180
01:44:45,560 --> 01:44:50,000
make 3 thrillers we've looked at
related to Humpty Dumpty is. 

2181
01:44:50,120 --> 01:44:54,400
There is, he wrote, a Peter Pan 
adaptation with Jason Isaacs as 

2182
01:44:54,400 --> 01:44:54,920
captain. 
Who? 

2183
01:44:54,920 --> 01:44:58,000
Right the Jason Isaacs, Peter. 
Richard's Richard Richie Briars 

2184
01:44:58,000 --> 01:45:01,560
as Smee Jeffrey Palmer Is it it 
Jesus Christ? 

2185
01:45:02,320 --> 01:45:05,000
Yeah, man, I think, I think. 
Very young George McKay I. 

2186
01:45:05,000 --> 01:45:06,960
Think that was the apex of his 
career as well. 

2187
01:45:06,960 --> 01:45:09,720
I mean, the fucking Humpty 
Dumpty bad certainly wasn't. 

2188
01:45:10,440 --> 01:45:11,400
Wow. 
OK. 

2189
01:45:11,400 --> 01:45:14,400
So yeah, that was great. 
Thank you very much for them to 

2190
01:45:14,400 --> 01:45:15,760
me and Rory, that's enriched my 
life. 

2191
01:45:16,120 --> 01:45:19,720
This is the last non superhero 
film as of 2015. 

2192
01:45:19,720 --> 01:45:21,840
This really very old, very old 
trivia. 

2193
01:45:22,040 --> 01:45:25,560
This is very old trivia. 
The last non superhero film 

2194
01:45:25,560 --> 01:45:29,080
would be the summer movie season
starter, released on the first 

2195
01:45:29,080 --> 01:45:31,640
weekend of May. 
With superhero movies scheduled 

2196
01:45:31,640 --> 01:45:35,040
to start the summer through 
2029, that will mean 13 

2197
01:45:35,040 --> 01:45:37,960
consecutive years of start of 
the summer with a superhero 

2198
01:45:37,960 --> 01:45:40,480
movie. 
That's an interesting point. 

2199
01:45:41,280 --> 01:45:43,840
Because this is, yeah, I mean 
2029. 

2200
01:45:43,840 --> 01:45:46,680
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 
I'm just thinking what, what was

2201
01:45:46,680 --> 01:45:49,560
the starting lineup in 2023? 
The the Barbenheimer year? 

2202
01:45:50,280 --> 01:45:53,480
That was like mid. 
That was like sort of June, 

2203
01:45:53,480 --> 01:45:54,680
wasn't it? 
So what was before that? 

2204
01:45:54,840 --> 01:45:58,200
I thought it was Black Adam, but
that's 2022. 20. 

2205
01:45:58,600 --> 01:46:00,800
When was when was? 
When was Wakanda forever? 

2206
01:46:01,320 --> 01:46:03,280
I was. 20 That was 20, that was 
22 as well. 

2207
01:46:03,640 --> 01:46:05,360
Which? 
Which year was Bob and Heimer? 

2208
01:46:05,360 --> 01:46:06,760
2023, right? 
Yes, it was. 

2209
01:46:06,760 --> 01:46:07,720
Yeah, Yeah, that's right. 
Yeah. 

2210
01:46:07,840 --> 01:46:10,360
Officially kicked off the early 
May with Guardians of the Galaxy

2211
01:46:10,360 --> 01:46:13,000
Volume 3. 
I forgot about that. 

2212
01:46:13,800 --> 01:46:15,760
There you go. 
Yeah, man. 

2213
01:46:16,120 --> 01:46:17,640
The animal cruelty one, I didn't
watch it. 

2214
01:46:18,840 --> 01:46:22,520
In early May 2024 was reported 
that Tom Cruise and his role as 

2215
01:46:22,520 --> 01:46:25,680
a producer requested of the 
German government that filming 

2216
01:46:25,680 --> 01:46:28,880
be allowed in the 40 metre glass
Dome of the German parliament 

2217
01:46:28,880 --> 01:46:32,040
building, the Reichstag. 
You know, I visited the Foster 

2218
01:46:32,040 --> 01:46:34,600
and part of design building and 
had been very impressed. 

2219
01:46:34,920 --> 01:46:37,560
His request was denied, however,
by Parliament President 

2220
01:46:37,560 --> 01:46:40,480
Volfgantius. 
The building is not available as

2221
01:46:40,480 --> 01:46:46,000
a film location and we refuse 
point blank every request to use

2222
01:46:46,000 --> 01:46:49,960
it as such, a spokesman said. 
I love that it's like. 

2223
01:46:50,400 --> 01:46:55,480
And Martin Landau was offered a 
cameo but declined. 

2224
01:46:56,480 --> 01:46:58,800
He's already pretty pissed off 
about Mission 1 where like all 

2225
01:46:58,800 --> 01:47:01,120
the characters were killed and 
John Voigt was the bad guy and 

2226
01:47:01,120 --> 01:47:02,360
all that stuff, so he was pretty
pissed. 

2227
01:47:02,360 --> 01:47:03,640
He's pretty pissed off from that
still. 

2228
01:47:03,760 --> 01:47:05,400
Yeah, I mean, so. 
Yeah. 

2229
01:47:05,400 --> 01:47:07,800
And you know he'd already done 
enough in Meteor. 

2230
01:47:08,640 --> 01:47:11,320
Yeah, go back to this centre 
anyway, right. 

2231
01:47:11,520 --> 01:47:14,040
So you want to move on to 
weapons? 

2232
01:47:14,280 --> 01:47:16,440
Absolutely. 
This is almost really cool. 

2233
01:47:16,440 --> 01:47:17,800
Guns in it. 
Obviously it's going to. 

2234
01:47:17,800 --> 01:47:20,320
It's a Mission Impossible film. 
That AG 36. 

2235
01:47:20,560 --> 01:47:23,360
Yeah. 
What do you mean and? 

2236
01:47:23,600 --> 01:47:28,560
I like how the refer to the G 
get the G36 out of the truck. 

2237
01:47:28,560 --> 01:47:31,400
It's like not get the rifle the 
truck get the G36 on the truck. 

2238
01:47:31,400 --> 01:47:33,480
It's like you know like someone 
from hacker and cock is like 

2239
01:47:33,480 --> 01:47:39,160
fucking hey Tom there's €1000. 
Just make sure someone says the 

2240
01:47:39,200 --> 01:47:42,120
actual unit name of this rifle. 
Piss us off how he has to 

2241
01:47:42,120 --> 01:47:44,320
assemble it. 
I literally said it loud. 

2242
01:47:44,320 --> 01:47:47,920
Just keep it in a bag. 
I know it adds tension the scene

2243
01:47:47,920 --> 01:47:50,320
and it was that reason, but it's
really fucking silly. 

2244
01:47:51,360 --> 01:47:55,840
It's not as egregious as he's 
seen as these films on some this

2245
01:47:55,840 --> 01:47:59,200
is going to piss people off 
films on some super badass 

2246
01:47:59,200 --> 01:48:03,160
assassin spends ages assembling 
a sniper rifle from its tiniest 

2247
01:48:03,160 --> 01:48:05,720
component pieces and then like 
just like snapping the 

2248
01:48:05,720 --> 01:48:08,960
telescopic sight on and then 
it's going to be completely in 

2249
01:48:08,960 --> 01:48:12,080
need of being zeroed, right. 
But he makes the perfect fucking

2250
01:48:12,080 --> 01:48:15,760
shots that that boils my piss. 
But very, very silly. 

2251
01:48:15,800 --> 01:48:18,240
Has to assemble. 
It gets a few shots off. 

2252
01:48:18,240 --> 01:48:22,800
It's AJ 36. 
It makes Sonia angry because 

2253
01:48:22,800 --> 01:48:24,920
it's the gun of people who are 
cuts. 

2254
01:48:26,000 --> 01:48:28,760
No actual rare exception from 
the rule. 

2255
01:48:29,160 --> 01:48:33,640
Because it's not a con. 
The current for once and also 

2256
01:48:33,840 --> 01:48:38,360
for once which is very rare just
being used in the standard 

2257
01:48:38,360 --> 01:48:40,240
configuration used by the German
army. 

2258
01:48:40,560 --> 01:48:44,040
Also pleased to know that he 
actually used the red dot 

2259
01:48:44,160 --> 01:48:48,240
correctly because that has has 
two different settings because 

2260
01:48:48,240 --> 01:48:52,160
it can be battery powered which 
is why it has a little selector 

2261
01:48:52,160 --> 01:48:55,120
wheel on the side. 
Or you can slide the top cover 

2262
01:48:55,120 --> 01:48:58,440
open and use daylight Cool man 
to power. 

2263
01:48:58,440 --> 01:49:01,880
It did a bit of research and I 
was right in my initial 

2264
01:49:01,880 --> 01:49:03,320
assessment that it is a repair 
drone. 

2265
01:49:03,320 --> 01:49:07,040
It's a Generosomics MQ TAC9 
repair drone that attacks them 

2266
01:49:07,040 --> 01:49:09,280
with a CGI added afterburner as 
you said earlier. 

2267
01:49:09,480 --> 01:49:13,240
I like the the the kind of 
suppressing fire the laid down 

2268
01:49:13,240 --> 01:49:16,880
on the building in Germanys from
big fuck off Barrett M82 sniper 

2269
01:49:16,880 --> 01:49:19,920
rifles on remote control weapons
stations with those big fuck off

2270
01:49:19,920 --> 01:49:21,720
drum magazines. 
It's ridiculous. 

2271
01:49:21,800 --> 01:49:25,080
It's a brutal about of overkill.
I love it things kind of cool 

2272
01:49:25,080 --> 01:49:29,640
how the tranquillizer pistol 
that he uses on Davian is cast 

2273
01:49:29,640 --> 01:49:33,120
rubber Glock 26 with with with a
bit of modifications on it. 

2274
01:49:33,360 --> 01:49:36,080
That's really cool the the film,
but it's like less than lethal 

2275
01:49:36,080 --> 01:49:38,560
weapons doesn't like lean into 
any kind of actual real 

2276
01:49:38,600 --> 01:49:41,000
commercial tears has rented from
the pistols that are firing the 

2277
01:49:41,000 --> 01:49:45,160
tears as Ethan Hunt as he's 
leaving the even the hospital 

2278
01:49:45,160 --> 01:49:48,640
will escape in the hospital. 
It's Ruga Ruga standard little 

2279
01:49:48,760 --> 01:49:51,600
semi automatics. 
The IMFDB says it's the mark 

2280
01:49:51,600 --> 01:49:54,240
one, but I think it's the mark 2
with the size of the barrel. 

2281
01:49:55,000 --> 01:49:56,720
Can you believe there's a wife 
upstairs? 

2282
01:49:57,520 --> 01:50:00,720
All of that the IMF DB, the 
possible Missions Force 

2283
01:50:00,720 --> 01:50:03,320
database. 
The grappling hook that they use

2284
01:50:03,360 --> 01:50:07,080
is a modified Desert Eagle, 
which I think this first can be 

2285
01:50:07,080 --> 01:50:09,280
cool because it's like, it looks
like it's just like, grab us a 

2286
01:50:09,280 --> 01:50:11,840
bag of things to make and the 
other things. 

2287
01:50:11,840 --> 01:50:14,320
And I like that. 
I like that kind of like, like 

2288
01:50:14,320 --> 01:50:16,880
kind of armouring and kind of 
costuming of the scenes with 

2289
01:50:17,400 --> 01:50:18,440
bullshit. 
Yeah. 

2290
01:50:18,440 --> 01:50:20,760
It's Kit bashed off quotes from 
this film. 

2291
01:50:20,760 --> 01:50:23,680
This film's got some bars, some 
absolute bars. 

2292
01:50:23,760 --> 01:50:27,720
Most of them are coming from the
man himself, Morpheus. 

2293
01:50:27,720 --> 01:50:29,440
It's. 
Got like 5 minutes of screen 

2294
01:50:29,440 --> 01:50:32,520
time as well. 
It's amazing, it's mental, I'm 

2295
01:50:32,520 --> 01:50:33,840
fine. 
Some of my favourites here. 

2296
01:50:33,960 --> 01:50:36,440
Mr Musgrave, please don't 
interrupt me when I'm asking. 

2297
01:50:36,440 --> 01:50:39,320
Rhetorical questions, yes. 
So good, man. 

2298
01:50:39,360 --> 01:50:41,440
It's not acceptable that 
chocolate makes you fat, but 

2299
01:50:41,440 --> 01:50:43,280
I've eaten my share and guess 
what? 

2300
01:50:43,960 --> 01:50:45,200
Amazing. 
So good. 

2301
01:50:45,520 --> 01:50:47,840
It is so. 
Good, you can look at me with 

2302
01:50:47,840 --> 01:50:49,920
those judgmental eyes all you 
want, but I built. 

2303
01:50:49,960 --> 01:50:53,000
But I bullshit you not I will 
bleed on the American flag to 

2304
01:50:53,000 --> 01:50:55,800
make sure those stripes say red.
Such a big fuck. 

2305
01:50:55,800 --> 01:50:57,920
That's something fucking eggs, F
would say. 

2306
01:50:58,720 --> 01:50:59,640
Yet. 
Somehow. 

2307
01:50:59,720 --> 01:51:02,000
Yet somehow it's cool, man. 
Brussels says it. 

2308
01:51:02,440 --> 01:51:04,320
Yeah, that's because that's 
because Lawrence Fishman is a 

2309
01:51:04,320 --> 01:51:06,520
hell of actor. 
Yeah, and Lawrence Fishman. 

2310
01:51:06,640 --> 01:51:08,480
Coolest Fucking Pete Hanks. 
That sucks. 

2311
01:51:08,960 --> 01:51:10,600
Sucks. 
Yeah, you. 

2312
01:51:11,240 --> 01:51:12,680
Suck. 
Deaf sucks. 

2313
01:51:12,680 --> 01:51:14,200
We've dropped the people 
discovering with. 

2314
01:51:14,400 --> 01:51:19,240
Ethan Hunt after claiming a wall
as a signal, Humpty Dumpty sat 

2315
01:51:19,240 --> 01:51:21,480
in the wall. 
I just think that was a signal. 

2316
01:51:21,480 --> 01:51:22,920
I don't think that's a signal he
sounded out. 

2317
01:51:22,920 --> 01:51:26,360
I think it's a vocal. 
Stem to himself, yeah, it's just

2318
01:51:26,440 --> 01:51:28,480
to himself, isn't? 
He I'm getting sat in the wall, 

2319
01:51:29,080 --> 01:51:30,240
you know? 
I'm Humpty Dumpty. 

2320
01:51:30,440 --> 01:51:33,800
Yeah. 
Always wanted to say this. 

2321
01:51:33,840 --> 01:51:36,880
Boy, oh boy, oh boy. 
Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy. 

2322
01:51:38,000 --> 01:51:39,720
Get a little silly with it 
sometimes. 

2323
01:51:39,720 --> 01:51:44,240
Yeah, OK, one of the weird ones 
is. 

2324
01:51:44,240 --> 01:51:46,560
And you never slept with your 
little sister, right? 

2325
01:51:47,280 --> 01:51:49,400
Yeah, that's, yeah, that's 
creepy. 

2326
01:51:49,400 --> 01:51:52,040
That's that's Luther being a bit
being a bit blue. 

2327
01:51:52,280 --> 01:51:53,960
Yeah. 
And you never slip in your 

2328
01:51:53,960 --> 01:51:55,400
little sister, right? 
Yeah. 

2329
01:51:55,400 --> 01:51:57,480
OK. 
Humpty Dumpty sad in the wall. 

2330
01:51:57,840 --> 01:52:00,000
I love that. 
What other ones can even hunt do

2331
01:52:00,720 --> 01:52:01,840
and the couch under for the 
moon. 

2332
01:52:01,880 --> 01:52:03,760
Like he's a little The kid had a
fiddle. 

2333
01:52:10,400 --> 01:52:14,440
He's all the nursery rhymes. 
He's about to get busted by like

2334
01:52:14,440 --> 01:52:17,760
corrupt British cops and he's 
like all the King's horses, not 

2335
01:52:17,760 --> 01:52:19,640
all the King's man. 
Kingsman all that bit. 

2336
01:52:19,640 --> 01:52:22,560
There's a bit of a rogue nation 
where he like, jumps into the 

2337
01:52:22,560 --> 01:52:25,120
underwater facility where all 
the hard drives are stored. 

2338
01:52:25,280 --> 01:52:27,640
He's under there for ages. 
Just there bubbling out his 

2339
01:52:27,640 --> 01:52:30,960
mouth is like would she Spider 
I? 

2340
01:52:32,320 --> 01:52:35,000
Love that shit. 
That's incredible man. 

2341
01:52:35,080 --> 01:52:37,160
Fucking I really like the line 
from there. 

2342
01:52:37,160 --> 01:52:38,960
Brussel. 
I don't care if your daddy plays

2343
01:52:38,960 --> 01:52:41,080
golf with the president, this is
intelligence. 

2344
01:52:41,080 --> 01:52:45,040
So far I haven't seen any. 
I love that. 

2345
01:52:45,040 --> 01:52:47,360
That's really good as well, 
keeping that my back pocket for 

2346
01:52:47,360 --> 01:52:48,920
a particularly zesty Teams 
meeting. 

2347
01:52:49,200 --> 01:52:50,800
Nice. 
I don't know if this actually 

2348
01:52:50,920 --> 01:52:55,880
shows shows up in the in the 
quotes section on here, but I 

2349
01:52:55,880 --> 01:53:01,240
love the line when Brussel is is
giving Billy crud up the 

2350
01:53:01,240 --> 01:53:04,640
business about running in 
unsanctioned up and Billy clubs 

2351
01:53:04,760 --> 01:53:07,320
like, Oh, well, I've got 
evidence for some guy with a 

2352
01:53:07,320 --> 01:53:10,560
totally made-up sounding Arabic 
name that's going to be in some 

2353
01:53:10,560 --> 01:53:13,720
place and he's like, huh, I'd 
like to see that intelligence. 

2354
01:53:13,760 --> 01:53:16,040
I don't like to think of is 
what's kind of running joke. 

2355
01:53:16,040 --> 01:53:20,920
It's you're Omar Bakshi, leader 
of Hezbollah, and it's like, 

2356
01:53:20,920 --> 01:53:24,120
yeah, I'd like to see that 
evidence that it's like, I want 

2357
01:53:24,120 --> 01:53:26,680
you, you piece of shit. 
Yeah, just like I said, a 

2358
01:53:26,680 --> 01:53:29,600
significant. 
Yeah, it's, it's it's we've 

2359
01:53:29,600 --> 01:53:32,880
received Intel that Haddam Salim
Baha was on route to Shanghai. 

2360
01:53:33,440 --> 01:53:36,360
He's like Hadeem Salim Baha. 
That's right. 

2361
01:53:36,720 --> 01:53:38,720
You know what I'd love? 
I'd love to see that Intel. 

2362
01:53:38,880 --> 01:53:41,840
I'll be in my office. 
It's like, yes, we've got, we've

2363
01:53:41,840 --> 01:53:44,800
got, we've got, we've got 
evidence that John made-up name 

2364
01:53:44,800 --> 01:53:47,840
is going to be in in this place 
again. 

2365
01:53:47,840 --> 01:53:51,280
Just a great Brussel, Musgrave 
smackdown. 

2366
01:53:51,280 --> 01:53:52,960
Brussel to Ethan. 
Who was drawing these 

2367
01:53:52,960 --> 01:53:55,040
conclusions? 
Is it you, John Musgrave? 

2368
01:53:55,080 --> 01:53:58,480
I am, Sir, based upon Brussel. 
I'm not on you yet. 

2369
01:53:59,280 --> 01:54:01,560
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 
I've been in this kind of 

2370
01:54:01,560 --> 01:54:05,800
meetings before. 
Yeah, yeah, fucking incredible 

2371
01:54:05,960 --> 01:54:08,680
scenes. 
How would you think a Brussel 

2372
01:54:08,680 --> 01:54:10,520
would be as a leader? 
Would you guys like having 

2373
01:54:10,520 --> 01:54:12,000
Brussel as your leg? 
I've. 

2374
01:54:12,000 --> 01:54:14,320
Had people I've had, I've had 
people like Brussel be my boss 

2375
01:54:14,320 --> 01:54:18,040
before. 
I shouldn't talk about on here. 

2376
01:54:19,280 --> 01:54:24,760
We have talked, obviously about 
how this film was almost 

2377
01:54:24,920 --> 01:54:28,840
directed by the fella who did 
Smoke Anesis. 

2378
01:54:29,840 --> 01:54:32,120
I've got a little game we're 
going to play called Wheel of 

2379
01:54:32,120 --> 01:54:34,800
Directors. 
When I've listed some directors 

2380
01:54:35,000 --> 01:54:39,280
of previous films clear and 
present dudes I've done, I'm 

2381
01:54:39,280 --> 01:54:43,160
going to spin this wheel and 
we're going to have a chat and 

2382
01:54:43,160 --> 01:54:47,040
see what this film would have 
looked like if this director had

2383
01:54:47,040 --> 01:54:49,400
worked on it. 
Oh, little wheel. 

2384
01:54:49,600 --> 01:54:51,880
Little wheel. 
And the wheel's spinning, and 

2385
01:54:51,880 --> 01:54:55,640
the wheel is coming to its rest 
and it says Denny Villeneuve. 

2386
01:54:56,240 --> 01:54:58,280
Dennis Villeneuve. 
Denny Villeneuve, Yes. 

2387
01:54:58,600 --> 01:54:59,880
Yes. 
Right. 

2388
01:55:01,040 --> 01:55:03,760
How would Denny Villeneuve have 
pulled this bad one off, do you 

2389
01:55:03,760 --> 01:55:05,320
think? 
Has been interesting? 

2390
01:55:05,320 --> 01:55:08,640
Wouldn't it would have had like 
he would have imbued a lot more 

2391
01:55:08,640 --> 01:55:10,440
distrust of the government into 
it? 

2392
01:55:10,480 --> 01:55:14,320
Yeah, this film is, it's not as 
fun with Denny Villeneuve. 

2393
01:55:14,320 --> 01:55:16,680
I don't think Denny Villeneuve's
got in him to make like a fun 

2394
01:55:16,680 --> 01:55:20,720
blockbuster that isn't like, you
know, touching at something, 

2395
01:55:20,920 --> 01:55:23,360
quote unquote elevated, quote, 
unquote prestige, you know what 

2396
01:55:23,360 --> 01:55:25,920
I mean? 
Like if you look at his his back

2397
01:55:25,920 --> 01:55:27,960
catalogue, everything he's done 
has been pretty serious. 

2398
01:55:28,240 --> 01:55:30,400
I don't I don't put a Denny 
Villeneuve film on to have a fun

2399
01:55:30,400 --> 01:55:33,280
time. 
Closest, closest he's done to 

2400
01:55:33,280 --> 01:55:34,720
that is probably June Part 2, 
right? 

2401
01:55:34,960 --> 01:55:37,920
Jesus Christ played on a 2049. 
What a you know, I love that 

2402
01:55:37,920 --> 01:55:39,320
film very much. 
But if he's trying to do a 

2403
01:55:39,320 --> 01:55:40,720
mission, it'd be a bit of a 
snooze fest I think. 

2404
01:55:41,480 --> 01:55:43,520
Philip Seymour Hoffman working 
on though Philip. 

2405
01:55:43,560 --> 01:55:46,280
Seymour Hoffman No lens flare, 
less colours. 

2406
01:55:46,480 --> 01:55:48,280
No lens flare, less colours. 
I like it. 

2407
01:55:48,760 --> 01:55:53,080
More depression, longer and more
lingering shots of the the poor 

2408
01:55:53,080 --> 01:55:57,640
girl with the exploded brain. 
God, yes, Absolutely, Fucking 

2409
01:55:57,640 --> 01:55:59,560
absolutely. 
Fucking hated that scene the 

2410
01:55:59,560 --> 01:56:02,720
entire time anyway. 
He'd be like cutting a lot of 

2411
01:56:02,720 --> 01:56:05,120
people's dialogue down, like 
hardly anything. 

2412
01:56:05,200 --> 01:56:08,520
Philip, Philip, Philip Seymour 
Hoffman's dialogue would just be

2413
01:56:08,520 --> 01:56:11,320
cut down to I've activated the 
charge inside your head. 

2414
01:56:11,600 --> 01:56:14,480
My rabbit, my foot, give it to 
me. 

2415
01:56:14,720 --> 01:56:17,360
We, we will. 
We will cultivate running power.

2416
01:56:18,960 --> 01:56:21,120
I'm going to give it one more 
fucking spin. 

2417
01:56:21,960 --> 01:56:26,600
Something on blue and it's 
coming up with Roger Donaldson. 

2418
01:56:26,800 --> 01:56:30,960
No way out. 
Yes, incredibly 80s and 

2419
01:56:30,960 --> 01:56:33,880
incredibly horny. 
Tom Cruise would have had full 

2420
01:56:33,880 --> 01:56:36,960
full sex several times in the 
film. 

2421
01:56:36,960 --> 01:56:39,560
Absolutely. 
Oh man, I mean, right. 

2422
01:56:39,560 --> 01:56:42,720
I don't I I have a theory that 
that Tom Cruise has never had 

2423
01:56:42,720 --> 01:56:45,480
sexual chemistry with any person
on film ever, and the closest he

2424
01:56:45,480 --> 01:56:47,720
gets to it is Ebony Blunt. 
That's because Emmy Blunt 

2425
01:56:47,720 --> 01:56:50,800
fucking rules other films. 
But Roger Thomas on the other 

2426
01:56:50,800 --> 01:56:55,280
hand, the man who did Species, 
The man who did no way else. 

2427
01:56:55,440 --> 01:56:57,600
Yeah. 
Jesus Christ, let's have a look.

2428
01:56:57,600 --> 01:56:59,440
Who else he's gone. 
He's he's Uber. 

2429
01:56:59,640 --> 01:57:00,880
We must refresh ourselves on 
this one. 

2430
01:57:00,880 --> 01:57:04,040
So cocktail. 
So he's worked with him before, 

2431
01:57:04,040 --> 01:57:05,240
actually. 
He has, He has. 

2432
01:57:05,440 --> 01:57:06,720
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 
Cocktail. 

2433
01:57:06,840 --> 01:57:08,160
Wow. 
So actually they probably bit 

2434
01:57:08,160 --> 01:57:10,960
for Rapport already. 
The recruit in 2003 is 100 and 

2435
01:57:10,960 --> 01:57:12,280
something. 
That's a brilliant film. 

2436
01:57:12,480 --> 01:57:14,600
That's on the list. 
Oh yeah. 

2437
01:57:14,600 --> 01:57:16,840
OK, this would rule actually. 
So that's probably. 

2438
01:57:17,160 --> 01:57:19,360
Good, yeah. 
So that's the closest XP to 

2439
01:57:19,360 --> 01:57:21,760
this, actually. 
And and, you know, same sort of 

2440
01:57:21,760 --> 01:57:24,440
thing, say, guys doing spy 
stuff. 

2441
01:57:24,440 --> 01:57:27,640
It'd probably have more spy 
stuff in it than action stuff. 

2442
01:57:27,760 --> 01:57:29,000
Yeah, But I think it'd be 
really, really good. 

2443
01:57:29,040 --> 01:57:30,200
Oh, we should do that film, by 
the way. 

2444
01:57:30,200 --> 01:57:31,080
The recruits. 
Yeah. 

2445
01:57:31,080 --> 01:57:33,480
And on the cookie jar. 
Oh, brilliant. 

2446
01:57:33,480 --> 01:57:35,360
Definitely. 
Definitely good, I would have 

2447
01:57:35,360 --> 01:57:39,040
maybe felt more like the first 
Mission impartial film the the 1

2448
01:57:39,040 --> 01:57:42,360
from 1996. 
Like I'm actually really fucking

2449
01:57:42,360 --> 01:57:44,640
cool. 
I would be pretty damn horny as 

2450
01:57:44,640 --> 01:57:47,160
well. 
Yeah, we focus a lot more on his

2451
01:57:47,160 --> 01:57:49,880
relationship with Julie, and for
some reason there'd be a sex 

2452
01:57:49,880 --> 01:57:51,600
scene just to kind of buy in 
there. 

2453
01:57:51,880 --> 01:57:53,800
Would you say that he has a 
penis like a baboon? 

2454
01:57:53,800 --> 01:57:56,840
I don't know. 
The the the hospital sex scene 

2455
01:57:57,000 --> 01:58:00,120
would have been more graphic. 
I'm going to give this thing one

2456
01:58:00,120 --> 01:58:02,200
more spin because this is 
because this is good. 

2457
01:58:02,200 --> 01:58:05,640
You just wanted to land on Neil 
Breen, Julie, just junior breed.

2458
01:58:05,960 --> 01:58:08,960
No, no, it's because I'm good, 
because I'm going to make this a

2459
01:58:08,960 --> 01:58:12,920
fucking recurring thing, Sonia, 
So I'm so I'm not just going to 

2460
01:58:13,240 --> 01:58:15,560
put my finger on it and make it 
land on Neil Breen. 

2461
01:58:15,560 --> 01:58:16,440
OK? 
This is. 

2462
01:58:16,480 --> 01:58:19,200
Going to add to the mix now. 
OK, here we go. 

2463
01:58:19,320 --> 01:58:23,680
So it's a different colour. 
It's in yellow now and it is 

2464
01:58:23,680 --> 01:58:29,040
coming up with Neil Breen. 
I can't believe you spun the 

2465
01:58:29,040 --> 01:58:31,320
wheel. 
I cannot believe you spun the 

2466
01:58:31,320 --> 01:58:34,520
wheel. 
And you can't keep getting away 

2467
01:58:34,520 --> 01:58:36,240
with it. 
Mate. 

2468
01:58:36,240 --> 01:58:39,960
All right, OK, here we go. 
So this film's special effects 

2469
01:58:39,960 --> 01:58:41,160
would be significantly 
different. 

2470
01:58:44,000 --> 01:58:46,240
The. 
Same amount of green screen, 

2471
01:58:46,240 --> 01:58:48,840
just not employed anywhere near 
as well the. 

2472
01:58:48,840 --> 01:58:51,240
Bridge attack scene would have 
been absolutely horrid. 

2473
01:58:53,840 --> 01:58:57,720
It would be on the same level as
those those African action 

2474
01:58:57,800 --> 01:58:59,880
things. 
Spider man or whatever. 

2475
01:59:00,560 --> 01:59:03,320
And then someone that's like 
cropped in a Tiger attack 

2476
01:59:03,320 --> 01:59:06,160
helicopter really badly. 
Who killed Captain Alex, 

2477
01:59:06,160 --> 01:59:08,000
basically. 
Yeah, yeah. 

2478
01:59:08,200 --> 01:59:10,440
Same sound effects for explosion
over and over again. 

2479
01:59:10,560 --> 01:59:13,640
The exact same sound effects. 
There's a bit where Tom Cruise 

2480
01:59:13,640 --> 01:59:16,440
turns on the camera and goes, we
need to make this an even fight 

2481
01:59:16,440 --> 01:59:19,480
and then only isn't Tom Cruise 
because Tom Cruise gets sacked 

2482
01:59:19,480 --> 01:59:21,840
from production by Neil Breen, 
who somehow has taken over. 

2483
01:59:22,120 --> 01:59:26,720
Yeah. 
Extraterrestrial beating from 

2484
01:59:26,720 --> 01:59:30,840
outer space who can read minds, 
levitate and have superpowers. 

2485
01:59:32,200 --> 01:59:34,360
Yeah, Ethan Hunt really is the 
force of *** He really is 

2486
01:59:34,360 --> 01:59:35,200
manifest. 
Destiny. 

2487
01:59:35,240 --> 01:59:37,880
But you have given you the 
rabbit's foot. 

2488
01:59:38,280 --> 01:59:40,920
I have already given you the 
rabbit's foot. 

2489
01:59:41,240 --> 01:59:43,720
There's a scene, right? 
And understand what you want 

2490
01:59:43,720 --> 01:59:47,040
from me. 
It's like Julia I. 

2491
01:59:47,040 --> 01:59:48,960
Can't help you out of this one 
and. 

2492
01:59:49,040 --> 01:59:51,760
It's going to be like, listen, 
listen, it's typing away the 

2493
01:59:51,760 --> 01:59:53,120
laptop. 
And he goes, I'm going to 

2494
01:59:53,120 --> 01:59:56,000
continue hacking into these 
these government systems to see 

2495
01:59:56,000 --> 01:59:59,160
what I can find out about all 
this national and international 

2496
01:59:59,160 --> 02:00:02,600
conversion I know is going on. 
I'm going to uncover the 

2497
02:00:02,600 --> 02:00:05,840
Vatican's secrets. 
Stop, stop. 

2498
02:00:05,840 --> 02:00:07,920
I could already get so excited 
about the film. 

2499
02:00:08,200 --> 02:00:10,320
It's actually a shot for shot 
remake of Fit for findings. 

2500
02:00:10,640 --> 02:00:12,840
You could literally knockout 
quotes and then he'll reinvoice.

2501
02:00:13,480 --> 02:00:18,080
I study traffic patterns. 
You hit the brakes for a second,

2502
02:00:18,320 --> 02:00:22,440
just tap them on the freeway. 
You can literally track the 

2503
02:00:22,440 --> 02:00:26,080
ripple effect. 
Hey man, I'm talking to you. 

2504
02:00:26,520 --> 02:00:29,480
Put the gun down. 
Was that not the rabbit's foot? 

2505
02:00:29,680 --> 02:00:32,120
Did you want something else? 
Just listen. 

2506
02:00:32,120 --> 02:00:35,320
Talk to me. 
We can talk like gentlemen. 

2507
02:00:35,320 --> 02:00:37,320
But that actually fucking. 
That actually is the amount of 

2508
02:00:37,320 --> 02:00:38,400
repetition there. 
Holy. 

2509
02:00:38,800 --> 02:00:41,960
Shit, yeah. 
I work for the impossible 

2510
02:00:41,960 --> 02:00:45,960
missions. 
The rabbit's foot is in Paris. 

2511
02:00:45,960 --> 02:00:48,720
You want to know where in Paris?
Then let her go, because you 

2512
02:00:48,720 --> 02:00:51,000
will never find it without me. 
It is in Paris. 

2513
02:00:51,200 --> 02:00:58,320
It's not in Paris 5. 
This is this is right up there 

2514
02:00:58,320 --> 02:01:02,680
with that hole. 
Take a film, replace every 

2515
02:01:02,680 --> 02:01:05,840
member of the cast but one with 
Muppets, the VHS and the mess 

2516
02:01:05,840 --> 02:01:07,920
test. 
Would this film do well in 

2517
02:01:07,920 --> 02:01:11,960
constant rotation on a VHS, DVD 
or Blu-ray player in the mess, 

2518
02:01:11,960 --> 02:01:16,040
wardroom or barracks of a 
military vessel or base? 

2519
02:01:16,160 --> 02:01:18,400
Big dime, big dime. 
It's got all. 

2520
02:01:18,400 --> 02:01:21,240
It's all the ingredients. 
It's slap the base button. 

2521
02:01:21,320 --> 02:01:24,280
It's got all the ingredients, 
it's part of a franchise, it's 

2522
02:01:24,280 --> 02:01:27,160
got stance, It's vaguely 
military related but isn't 

2523
02:01:27,160 --> 02:01:29,640
really military related. 
It came out at a period when all

2524
02:01:29,640 --> 02:01:33,440
we were young, so it's nostalgic
as well as did we a good movie. 

2525
02:01:33,640 --> 02:01:34,880
Strong. 
Nostalgic. 

2526
02:01:34,960 --> 02:01:36,840
Strong. 
Tom-tom Cruise is still making 

2527
02:01:36,840 --> 02:01:39,000
these movies, so it's still a 
current franchise. 

2528
02:01:39,000 --> 02:01:40,320
It's current. 
You can, you can. 

2529
02:01:40,520 --> 02:01:42,680
You can have a marathon of them 
starting from #1. 

2530
02:01:42,680 --> 02:01:45,360
We can do a marathon, Yeah. 
A very important ingredient for 

2531
02:01:45,360 --> 02:01:47,200
deployment is the ability to 
have a marathon of the films as 

2532
02:01:47,200 --> 02:01:48,560
well. 
Yeah, excellent. 

2533
02:01:48,720 --> 02:01:51,360
There we go. 
What is the most egregious 

2534
02:01:51,400 --> 02:01:55,000
oversaw of the military 
industrial complex in this film?

2535
02:01:55,920 --> 02:01:57,520
Holy fucking shit, where do you 
start? 

2536
02:01:58,400 --> 02:02:00,440
The wall scanning thing, What 
the Which one? 

2537
02:02:01,360 --> 02:02:04,360
The the eye can see through 
walls without giving everyone 

2538
02:02:04,360 --> 02:02:06,520
massive cancer. 
Oh yeah, that's pretty bad, 

2539
02:02:06,600 --> 02:02:07,160
yeah. 
Yeah. 

2540
02:02:07,160 --> 02:02:09,200
In fairness though, they don't 
know. 

2541
02:02:09,520 --> 02:02:12,600
We we don't know that it's not 
given the massive cancer. 

2542
02:02:13,960 --> 02:02:16,960
That's right. 
There isn't there isn't like a 

2543
02:02:16,960 --> 02:02:19,680
post credit sequence were like a
loaded German guy who's just 

2544
02:02:19,680 --> 02:02:23,400
like just like fucking walking 
out of of of like an oncologist 

2545
02:02:23,400 --> 02:02:25,360
office looking really sad. 
What else? 

2546
02:02:26,040 --> 02:02:28,040
Oh, the All right, I say what I 
do like about this film, 

2547
02:02:28,040 --> 02:02:29,360
actually, Hodge. 
Deagle. 

2548
02:02:30,000 --> 02:02:32,600
I got I got a bit grumpy. 
I got a bit grumpy that Owen 

2549
02:02:32,600 --> 02:02:35,280
Davian had the mask tech because
it was a bit like, well, hang 

2550
02:02:35,280 --> 02:02:36,320
on. 
Yeah, I never got it. 

2551
02:02:36,320 --> 02:02:39,240
How how how they got it is it is
it's just masks, the thing that 

2552
02:02:39,240 --> 02:02:41,280
anyone can do now that was 
annoying. 

2553
02:02:41,720 --> 02:02:45,040
But but I do like that we're 
still in the stage of Mission 

2554
02:02:45,040 --> 02:02:47,240
Impossible where the masks are 
like fun to do and this is the 

2555
02:02:47,240 --> 02:02:49,560
first time we see them get made.
There's a lot of stuff we see 

2556
02:02:49,560 --> 02:02:52,720
happen in this draw, like, but 
yeah, I think I agree with 

2557
02:02:52,720 --> 02:02:54,960
Sonya. 
I think the I've got one, I've 

2558
02:02:54,960 --> 02:02:57,240
got one. 
So the exact same thing. 

2559
02:02:57,240 --> 02:03:00,440
It's the same thing, but there's
a bit where they identify Kerry 

2560
02:03:00,440 --> 02:03:03,920
Russell's character and it comes
up with a screen vascular match 

2561
02:03:04,880 --> 02:03:08,360
and they've got, they've got a 
scan of her blood vessel, like 

2562
02:03:08,360 --> 02:03:11,440
her, her circulatory system, and
that's like her fingerprint. 

2563
02:03:11,440 --> 02:03:14,400
And they scan that through the 
wall and match it to her and 

2564
02:03:14,400 --> 02:03:16,680
have an ID match and it happens 
in a split second. 

2565
02:03:16,680 --> 02:03:20,240
Yeah, that's, that's how I was 
going to say that. 

2566
02:03:20,240 --> 02:03:23,680
It's the fact that the that the 
that the IMF can put the hands 

2567
02:03:23,680 --> 02:03:29,680
on a man portable fucking easily
deployed baseball pitching 

2568
02:03:29,680 --> 02:03:34,240
machine at at fucking Zero Dark 
hundreds, half a world away. 

2569
02:03:34,320 --> 02:03:36,960
They can somehow get their hands
on one and make it work. 

2570
02:03:37,160 --> 02:03:40,480
But the biggest sofa Sally 
right, is fucking identifying 

2571
02:03:40,480 --> 02:03:43,680
someone through the vascular 
system, through a wall. 

2572
02:03:43,680 --> 02:03:45,800
That is it. 
What's the biggest missed 

2573
02:03:45,800 --> 02:03:49,160
opportunity in the film? 
The Ding Chavez Memorial Missed 

2574
02:03:49,160 --> 02:03:52,200
Opportunity Award. 
Shit, yeah, forgot about this. 

2575
02:03:53,080 --> 02:03:57,160
I mean, they deal with this 
later in subsequent films, but 

2576
02:03:57,480 --> 02:04:00,800
this is Benji's introduction to 
the franchise. 

2577
02:04:01,240 --> 02:04:03,520
Some of his character he would 
become on, he comes on to become

2578
02:04:03,520 --> 02:04:06,760
like a major character to the 
point where he's like joining 

2579
02:04:06,760 --> 02:04:08,960
them on the missions. 
He's a field agent and all that 

2580
02:04:08,960 --> 02:04:12,600
kind of stuff. 
I don't I don't think they 

2581
02:04:12,600 --> 02:04:15,280
indicate that he wants to do 
that in this film or at any 

2582
02:04:15,280 --> 02:04:17,760
point. 
And then the, I think a cool 

2583
02:04:17,760 --> 02:04:19,920
thing, if they knew the, if they
knew where the franchise was 

2584
02:04:19,920 --> 02:04:23,160
going after, after this, which 
they didn't, they they could 

2585
02:04:23,160 --> 02:04:24,400
have indicated that a little 
bit. 

2586
02:04:24,400 --> 02:04:25,560
I guess that's the only thing I 
can think of. 

2587
02:04:25,640 --> 02:04:28,400
Like a real subtle thing of 
like, oh man, I really want to 

2588
02:04:28,400 --> 02:04:30,360
join you on these missions one 
day kind of thing. 

2589
02:04:30,400 --> 02:04:33,120
And then the next one is like, I
passed the field as an exam. 

2590
02:04:33,120 --> 02:04:33,960
Yeah. 
You know. 

2591
02:04:34,000 --> 02:04:35,720
Yeah, kind of thing. 
Be cool, man. 

2592
02:04:35,800 --> 02:04:38,680
I would like to see a hospital 
chaplain's honest reaction to 

2593
02:04:38,680 --> 02:04:43,040
being told by by this lady that 
please do an emergency fucking 

2594
02:04:43,200 --> 02:04:44,240
wedding. 
Please. 

2595
02:04:44,240 --> 02:04:46,880
An emergency marriage for me and
my boyfriend. 

2596
02:04:46,880 --> 02:04:49,960
Not because he's about to die. 
Not because it's like an 

2597
02:04:50,200 --> 02:04:52,600
articular mortar situation. 
Because. 

2598
02:04:52,680 --> 02:04:54,760
Because he's about to go away 
for work. 

2599
02:04:55,120 --> 02:04:56,760
Yeah, and he's like. 
My interest? 

2600
02:04:56,760 --> 02:04:59,280
No, it's a conference. 
Just a conference, you know, My 

2601
02:04:59,280 --> 02:05:01,680
job is normally telling people 
like is helping people out when 

2602
02:05:01,680 --> 02:05:03,280
they've been diagnosed with 
cancer and stuff. 

2603
02:05:03,480 --> 02:05:05,680
Yeah, this. 
Is really my job. 

2604
02:05:06,320 --> 02:05:09,400
Yeah, it's like, it's like, OK, 
so I've seen, like I, I have 

2605
02:05:09,400 --> 02:05:11,960
seen the light go out of 
multiple people's eyes today. 

2606
02:05:12,080 --> 02:05:14,240
I've given the last rights to 
three people. 

2607
02:05:14,640 --> 02:05:18,360
I've, I've, I've carried out 
fucking like just today I 

2608
02:05:18,360 --> 02:05:22,240
married a cancer patient to his 
wife 5 minutes before he died. 

2609
02:05:22,440 --> 02:05:26,400
And then and now you want me to 
marry you and this guy? 

2610
02:05:26,840 --> 02:05:28,280
Is he a patient? 
No. 

2611
02:05:28,560 --> 02:05:29,200
Is he dying? 
He's. 

2612
02:05:29,200 --> 02:05:31,480
Sort of. 
This isn't, this isn't like 

2613
02:05:31,480 --> 02:05:33,360
while you were sleeping. 
This is like Dermot Mulroney. 

2614
02:05:33,360 --> 02:05:35,160
He's just woken up from a cover.
Yeah. 

2615
02:05:35,640 --> 02:05:38,400
This is like, this is like, will
you see? 

2616
02:05:38,520 --> 02:05:40,880
We've got to get married because
it's going to be really cute. 

2617
02:05:41,480 --> 02:05:42,680
Sorry, I need to make a 
correction. 

2618
02:05:42,680 --> 02:05:45,080
It's Peter Gallagher who wakes 
up from there, wakes up from the

2619
02:05:45,080 --> 02:05:46,040
camera. 
I'm sorry. 

2620
02:05:46,960 --> 02:05:48,640
Got married, it's going to be 
really cutesy. 

2621
02:05:48,640 --> 02:05:51,440
It's going to stop him fucking 
around on his conference that 

2622
02:05:51,440 --> 02:05:53,120
he's at. 
What about you saying you got 

2623
02:05:53,120 --> 02:05:56,320
any messed up? 
Parking rides, parking rides. 

2624
02:05:58,120 --> 02:06:00,520
Bring it quickly, boys. 
Bring it, bring. 

2625
02:06:00,520 --> 02:06:02,760
Yeah, I've got to bring it home 
with some notes from the peanut 

2626
02:06:02,760 --> 02:06:04,840
gallery, if that's quite all 
right with you guys. 

2627
02:06:04,840 --> 02:06:08,440
Let's see what the good people 
of Letterboxed dot com think 

2628
02:06:08,440 --> 02:06:12,640
about this film. 1/2 a star from
someone whose name I won't even 

2629
02:06:12,640 --> 02:06:14,360
use because Mike will probably 
try and kill him. 

2630
02:06:14,520 --> 02:06:17,440
Was Philip Seymour Hoffman ever 
in anything good? 

2631
02:06:17,440 --> 02:06:19,800
Just asking. 
What the fuck, man? 

2632
02:06:21,120 --> 02:06:23,800
It's like he's never even seen 
Magnolia or. 

2633
02:06:24,440 --> 02:06:27,760
Or the master in. 
New York or the Master, or along

2634
02:06:27,760 --> 02:06:29,200
came Polly. 
Half a star. 

2635
02:06:29,360 --> 02:06:32,720
The Asian character wore a 
chopstick in her hair. 

2636
02:06:32,800 --> 02:06:36,680
I just want to talk from someone
called extremely judgy. 

2637
02:06:36,840 --> 02:06:41,640
Fair enough, half a star stinks.
As this franchise keeps going 

2638
02:06:41,640 --> 02:06:43,200
they put more and more money 
into it. 

2639
02:06:43,440 --> 02:06:45,760
This is the third one of the 
plots getting no better. 

2640
02:06:45,960 --> 02:06:47,760
Tom Cruise gets no better 
either. 

2641
02:06:48,000 --> 02:06:50,920
Totally repulsive individual. 
What is so attractive? 

2642
02:06:50,920 --> 02:06:54,080
The movie producers to invest in
films that are remakes of TV 

2643
02:06:54,080 --> 02:06:55,960
shows. 
So lame. 

2644
02:06:57,120 --> 02:07:00,920
Got another Savage 1 here. 
All capitals garbage ass Looney 

2645
02:07:00,920 --> 02:07:07,680
tunes for 35 year old men. 
There's two stars coming out 

2646
02:07:07,680 --> 02:07:09,440
here. 
They needed let Philip Seymour 

2647
02:07:09,440 --> 02:07:12,800
Hoffman cook a whole lot more. 
He should be on screen the whole

2648
02:07:12,800 --> 02:07:15,240
time. 
Picture in picture down in the 

2649
02:07:15,240 --> 02:07:16,720
corner. 
Whatever. 

2650
02:07:16,720 --> 02:07:18,400
Philip Seymour. 
Whatever Philip Seymour Hoffman 

2651
02:07:18,400 --> 02:07:20,440
is on the screen, people should 
be asking where's Philip Seymour

2652
02:07:20,440 --> 02:07:22,240
Hoffman? 
See, there's some freaky essay 

2653
02:07:22,240 --> 02:07:25,240
in the biggest in series, so I'm
going to continue reading that 

2654
02:07:25,240 --> 02:07:27,040
because the wrong. 
One star. 

2655
02:07:27,040 --> 02:07:29,600
I wish this would have been 
directed by Neil Breen. 

2656
02:07:30,720 --> 02:07:32,080
Two stars we're. 
Not going to find that in here. 

2657
02:07:32,360 --> 02:07:34,440
Star Review. 
What if there was a wife? 

2658
02:07:35,600 --> 02:07:39,600
That's pretty much it. 
Two star alias and add spin off 

2659
02:07:39,600 --> 02:07:43,160
pilot our movie. 
Only JJ fucking Abrams can make 

2660
02:07:43,160 --> 02:07:46,200
Mission Impossible boring. 
This is an exercise in what 

2661
02:07:46,200 --> 02:07:49,040
happens when you get the most 
unimaginative director possible.

2662
02:07:49,040 --> 02:07:51,360
The director franchise. 
It's literally known for being 

2663
02:07:51,360 --> 02:07:52,600
imaginative. 
Ouch. 

2664
02:07:53,880 --> 02:07:56,200
Would disagree as well. 
There are worse directors. 

2665
02:07:56,840 --> 02:07:59,360
There are worse directors. 
I can't I see where they're 

2666
02:07:59,360 --> 02:08:01,880
coming from because the heists 
that they do with this movie 

2667
02:08:01,880 --> 02:08:05,200
aren't like some of the crazier 
ones that we get later in the 

2668
02:08:05,200 --> 02:08:06,800
series. 
Like I I already mentioned the 

2669
02:08:06,800 --> 02:08:09,120
underwater vault 1 to you like 
that. 

2670
02:08:09,120 --> 02:08:12,080
That one's, that one's mega and 
nothing, nothing that happens 

2671
02:08:12,080 --> 02:08:14,800
here is it puts them in the same
kind of peril during the heist. 

2672
02:08:16,000 --> 02:08:18,320
Yeah, I'm on theft. 
Also, maybe they just didn't 

2673
02:08:18,320 --> 02:08:21,960
like lens flare. 
Yeah, maybe they were like an 

2674
02:08:22,200 --> 02:08:26,040
enemy of lens flare. 3 stars 
breaking loops and trampling 

2675
02:08:26,040 --> 02:08:28,720
shits. 
Burning heart emoji, breaking 

2676
02:08:28,720 --> 02:08:33,320
loops, and trampling shits. 
That's all that means. 4 1/2 

2677
02:08:33,320 --> 02:08:38,240
star review Gold Dam someone 
says yeah, she's the wife of 

2678
02:08:38,240 --> 02:08:39,560
cinema. 
I'm the wife. 

2679
02:08:39,720 --> 02:08:42,000
Here's a question if you haven't
touched upon. 

2680
02:08:42,000 --> 02:08:43,560
I just saw a review that 
mentions it. 

2681
02:08:44,720 --> 02:08:49,200
Tom Cruise, Ethan Hunt hair 
watch Yes, so so this is the 

2682
02:08:49,200 --> 02:08:52,280
third movie, third hairstyle. 
It's slightly different from the

2683
02:08:52,280 --> 02:08:55,080
first film where he has like a 
short buzz on the sides. 

2684
02:08:55,400 --> 02:08:57,520
Second film. 
Long, resplendent, improbable 

2685
02:08:57,520 --> 02:09:02,120
hair. 
Yeah, he does not have the hair 

2686
02:09:02,120 --> 02:09:04,560
of the military guy. 
Probably the best cover he could

2687
02:09:04,560 --> 02:09:05,720
have hadn't been to be that 
hair. 

2688
02:09:05,840 --> 02:09:08,720
And then this one has standard 
short backing size with a little

2689
02:09:08,720 --> 02:09:12,160
flick on the front, doesn't he? 
Which looks weird from the side,

2690
02:09:12,280 --> 02:09:14,160
but that was very much of its of
its time, doesn't it? 

2691
02:09:14,200 --> 02:09:15,280
It was. 
Very golf time. 

2692
02:09:15,720 --> 02:09:17,240
Golf, dad hair, that's what he's
got. 

2693
02:09:18,120 --> 02:09:20,240
Yeah, we'll see the next one 
that gets along again. 

2694
02:09:20,440 --> 02:09:24,520
Yeah, it does make him 
believable in his kind of Amir. 

2695
02:09:24,520 --> 02:09:28,440
Just boring admin kind of guy 
cover, I guess, because like, 

2696
02:09:28,480 --> 02:09:31,560
right, if you had like this kind
of like like military kind of 

2697
02:09:31,560 --> 02:09:36,200
haircut in the first one, I said
right, see a very physical first

2698
02:09:36,320 --> 02:09:38,600
go and we had all these ships 
you to work for the fucking 

2699
02:09:38,600 --> 02:09:41,680
Department of Transportation. 
You're killing people out 

2700
02:09:41,720 --> 02:09:43,240
somewhere. 
You work for Blackwater or 

2701
02:09:43,240 --> 02:09:44,960
something, don't you? 
Yeah, yeah. 

2702
02:09:44,960 --> 02:09:47,920
Whereas now he's like, got the 
kind of look and that car, he's 

2703
02:09:47,920 --> 02:09:49,920
got that always, like, big. 
I don't know what they call it, 

2704
02:09:50,800 --> 02:09:52,840
but he's got, like a big family 
car. 

2705
02:09:52,960 --> 02:09:55,840
Yeah. 
He's got a dog, which in the 

2706
02:09:55,840 --> 02:09:58,120
screenplay is called Buster. 
He's got hair. 

2707
02:09:58,320 --> 02:10:00,680
You can imagine him and Jules 
going for a drive and they're 

2708
02:10:00,680 --> 02:10:02,960
listening to Coldplay is a rush 
of blood to the head. 

2709
02:10:03,400 --> 02:10:05,400
Oh my. 
God. 

2710
02:10:07,320 --> 02:10:11,800
Actually, do we think that is a 
believable cover for someone who

2711
02:10:11,800 --> 02:10:17,320
is ridiculously fit in an 
America pre the excessive gym? 

2712
02:10:17,320 --> 02:10:19,120
Culture. 
We have the manosphere. 

2713
02:10:19,840 --> 02:10:23,040
Shouldn't you be a little 
chubbier with that job? 

2714
02:10:23,040 --> 02:10:25,920
Can you imagine like Ethan 
County has to do like tactical 

2715
02:10:25,920 --> 02:10:28,000
weight gain? 
Possibly it would be more 

2716
02:10:28,000 --> 02:10:33,240
believably if he told his wife 
that he was working like for an 

2717
02:10:33,360 --> 02:10:35,640
oil company or something like 
that. 

2718
02:10:35,640 --> 02:10:37,600
Yeah. 
This is the need get away with 

2719
02:10:37,800 --> 02:10:41,800
with being medically fit enough 
to piss off to an oil rig every 

2720
02:10:41,800 --> 02:10:43,960
now and then. 
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 

2721
02:10:44,360 --> 02:10:47,480
And it would also explain him 
just being unavailable for for 

2722
02:10:47,480 --> 02:10:49,720
weeks at a time. 
And she's impervious to red 

2723
02:10:49,720 --> 02:10:51,280
flags so she wouldn't even 
notice. 

2724
02:10:51,440 --> 02:10:55,360
Yeah, but but like, I mean, oh, 
I, I, I work for the Department 

2725
02:10:55,360 --> 02:10:57,960
of Transportation. 
What are you the traffic? 

2726
02:10:58,920 --> 02:11:02,120
That reminds me so when he's 
escaping from from Langley. 

2727
02:11:02,400 --> 02:11:04,240
Work is the train I'm going 
around you what? 

2728
02:11:04,600 --> 02:11:07,200
So when he's escaping from 
Langley and he's like getting 

2729
02:11:07,200 --> 02:11:09,720
all the agents to go all over 
the building and he's like 

2730
02:11:10,160 --> 02:11:13,440
jammed the transmitter onto 
plates sing like we are fair 

2731
02:11:13,440 --> 02:11:15,560
movies. 
There's there's, there's a bit 

2732
02:11:15,560 --> 02:11:18,000
where he like tumbles through an
office and out for like a 

2733
02:11:18,000 --> 02:11:20,640
doctor, something like that. 
He knocks over a box and 

2734
02:11:20,640 --> 02:11:23,400
out-of-the-box fills tonnes and 
tonnes of leaflets and all the 

2735
02:11:23,400 --> 02:11:26,920
leaflets say on the, on the 
front cover like primer for the 

2736
02:11:26,920 --> 02:11:29,800
Department of Transport. 
So it's like, it's like where 

2737
02:11:29,800 --> 02:11:31,320
they get their covers from. 
Like they're all in the 

2738
02:11:31,320 --> 02:11:34,600
Department of Transport. 
Every person who works for the 

2739
02:11:34,600 --> 02:11:36,800
IMF, there is no Department of 
Transport because they all work 

2740
02:11:36,800 --> 02:11:39,120
for the IMF. 
Like, like, and it's just like, 

2741
02:11:39,360 --> 02:11:42,880
Oh yes, transport. 
Violation citizen and it's just 

2742
02:11:42,880 --> 02:11:44,440
even on showing up to shoot you 
in the head. 

2743
02:11:45,440 --> 02:11:50,720
Just hires all these jacked, 
very capable people like fucking

2744
02:11:50,920 --> 02:11:54,320
fucking Luther Stickles coming 
round to just check out check 

2745
02:11:54,320 --> 02:11:57,360
out some issues regarding that 
fly over that someone said had 

2746
02:11:57,360 --> 02:12:00,600
some cracks in its base. 
And you know, just just paying 

2747
02:12:00,600 --> 02:12:04,640
no attention to his incredibly 
capable and intimidating 

2748
02:12:04,640 --> 02:12:07,240
demeanour. 
I swear to God, he's just like 

2749
02:12:07,280 --> 02:12:11,280
like a higher level admin guy. 
That's why fuck, like I said, 

2750
02:12:11,280 --> 02:12:15,000
yeah, Sonia, really good point. 
I mean, if if this film was out 

2751
02:12:15,000 --> 02:12:20,080
like he come nine years later, 
he could have explained his 

2752
02:12:20,080 --> 02:12:22,280
massive level of physical 
fitness by saying always a 

2753
02:12:22,280 --> 02:12:26,880
CrossFit brew as as well as 
being like an admin nerd for for

2754
02:12:26,880 --> 02:12:28,600
the DOT. 
But it's like, yeah, like, 

2755
02:12:28,600 --> 02:12:33,160
nothing about his cover makes 
sense at all. 

2756
02:12:33,800 --> 02:12:35,800
Like, I don't know. 
We are, we are litigating deep 

2757
02:12:35,800 --> 02:12:38,440
into this. 
But I think we all all are aware

2758
02:12:38,520 --> 02:12:42,160
that if we told the women in our
life this bullshit that we've 

2759
02:12:42,160 --> 02:12:44,760
just got to go away for a 
traffic conference, they're 

2760
02:12:44,760 --> 02:12:47,840
like, no, no, this is a lie. 
Just the last one we should be 

2761
02:12:47,840 --> 02:12:51,120
asking is, would this film be 
better with Peter Falk in it? 

2762
02:12:51,520 --> 02:12:56,120
Wouldn't get Columbo on it. 
Scrungly, crungly Peter Falk in 

2763
02:12:56,120 --> 02:12:59,560
his dirty old coat. 
Being witty, being smooth, being

2764
02:12:59,560 --> 02:13:01,960
cool. 
Well, the wittiest character of 

2765
02:13:01,960 --> 02:13:04,320
this film is Brussel, isn't it? 
Yeah. 

2766
02:13:05,000 --> 02:13:09,680
So I think, I think I think PF 
Four could be a good Brussel, be

2767
02:13:09,680 --> 02:13:13,280
a good boss of the IMF, and that
would be closer to like, what? 

2768
02:13:13,600 --> 02:13:15,800
So the second one is Anthony 
Hopkins, who's the boss. 

2769
02:13:16,440 --> 02:13:17,640
Yeah, yeah. 
And they? 

2770
02:13:17,960 --> 02:13:19,120
Never explained what happened to
him. 

2771
02:13:19,160 --> 02:13:20,920
They just replace him. 
Maybe you're. 

2772
02:13:20,920 --> 02:13:23,840
Arrested for murder? 
Yeah, obviously. 

2773
02:13:24,680 --> 02:13:28,920
They, they fired him because 
because he had this stupid idea 

2774
02:13:28,920 --> 02:13:31,440
to give them all this fucking 
Department of Transportation 

2775
02:13:31,440 --> 02:13:34,040
cover story, right? 
So most grave It's come to my 

2776
02:13:34,040 --> 02:13:36,000
attention that yesterday 
afternoon you sent A-Team to the

2777
02:13:36,000 --> 02:13:38,040
Far East. 
Oh, we received until that Haram

2778
02:13:38,040 --> 02:13:42,280
Salim Baha was on route to 
Shanghai, Haram Salim Bahar. 

2779
02:13:42,960 --> 02:13:46,120
But one more thing. 
Isn't Haram Salim Bahar already 

2780
02:13:46,120 --> 02:13:52,640
in custody in Guantanamo Bay? 
My wife, she she, she has a 

2781
02:13:52,640 --> 02:13:55,160
lucky rabbit's foot in her 
purse, but that's not the 

2782
02:13:55,160 --> 02:13:56,600
rabbit's foot we're talking 
about. 

2783
02:13:57,680 --> 02:14:00,400
Nice, I love it. 
Amazing, amazing man. 

2784
02:14:00,520 --> 02:14:03,000
And here's the question on 
everyone's minds. 

2785
02:14:03,000 --> 02:14:06,520
Is this film pro or anti the 
Department of Transport? 

2786
02:14:06,520 --> 02:14:08,320
I'm sorry, the CIA? 
Yeah. 

2787
02:14:08,320 --> 02:14:10,680
Is this film pro around I the 
CIA? 

2788
02:14:11,040 --> 02:14:14,920
So I think at this stage in the 
history of the IMF, in the 

2789
02:14:14,920 --> 02:14:17,760
Mission Impossible franchise, 
and the IMF is still part of the

2790
02:14:17,760 --> 02:14:20,240
CIA. 
And it's only a thing that comes

2791
02:14:20,240 --> 02:14:23,200
in the later films where the 
funding streams, the CIA and IMF

2792
02:14:23,200 --> 02:14:26,560
become separate and separate to 
and subject to congressional 

2793
02:14:26,560 --> 02:14:29,600
oversight hearings, which is all
I've been watching on Fred's for

2794
02:14:29,600 --> 02:14:34,360
the past fucking three months. 
Apparently the part is one of 

2795
02:14:34,360 --> 02:14:36,320
them. 
Every fucking day now and they 

2796
02:14:36,320 --> 02:14:37,880
lead nowhere and nothing 
matters. 

2797
02:14:38,200 --> 02:14:40,880
Jesus Christ. 
Anyway, I think this film is pro

2798
02:14:40,880 --> 02:14:43,000
say, I think I think later ones 
we're going to have a more 

2799
02:14:43,000 --> 02:14:45,240
interesting conversation when we
get to like 4:00 and 5:00. 

2800
02:14:46,120 --> 02:14:49,440
Definitely, definitely. 
Just waiting for the the 

2801
02:14:49,440 --> 02:14:52,400
Congressional oversight hearing 
on the Clean Print Dudes 

2802
02:14:52,400 --> 02:14:54,280
podcast. 
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. 

2803
02:14:54,680 --> 02:14:56,760
I'm reclaiming my time. 
If you want to answer my 

2804
02:14:56,760 --> 02:14:59,040
question, I will ask another. 
Have you been tonight? 

2805
02:14:59,560 --> 02:15:03,160
We. 
Who have we been tonight? 

2806
02:15:03,800 --> 02:15:09,840
We have been clear dudes nice.
