WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:05.120
Besides popcorn, because Tom Cruise loves
himself a big old bucket of popcorn.

2
00:00:05.719 --> 00:00:10.480
What are your favorite movie theater treats? So, dude, it's a great

3
00:00:10.560 --> 00:00:14.720
question, And honestly, these days
I used to diversify the profile much more

4
00:00:14.839 --> 00:00:17.679
way back when. Part of the
reason I don't anymore is because when we

5
00:00:17.760 --> 00:00:22.199
go to these screenings, you know, a little bit early, I feel

6
00:00:22.199 --> 00:00:25.800
like a real moron if I get
like two snacks and we're sitting there amongst

7
00:00:25.879 --> 00:00:30.199
the high folks in the high castle
there. So it's mainly just popcorn these

8
00:00:30.239 --> 00:00:33.200
days, if I do anything I
go on my own, I might get

9
00:00:33.399 --> 00:00:37.240
like a slurpy, icy type of
thing too, so that I think for

10
00:00:37.359 --> 00:00:42.000
sure, like in a mount rushmore
of theater going treats. And then I

11
00:00:42.079 --> 00:00:46.280
also like, I'm not really a
chocolate guy. I don't like melting chocolate

12
00:00:46.280 --> 00:00:48.520
in my hand, especially not during
a movie, so I don't really go

13
00:00:48.600 --> 00:00:53.479
any chocolate treats. I love Swedish
fish, so something like Swedish fish,

14
00:00:53.479 --> 00:00:56.359
maybe a sour patch kid as well, sort of in the same vein,

15
00:00:56.479 --> 00:01:00.039
something squishy to chew on through the
movie. Skills are also I'm favorite candy,

16
00:01:00.039 --> 00:01:03.159
and they kind of fit here too. But they can be noisy,

17
00:01:03.479 --> 00:01:06.560
you know, like a Mike and
Ike. They can be during a quiet

18
00:01:06.599 --> 00:01:10.640
place. Yeah, that that kills
it. Any any kind of thriller horror

19
00:01:10.680 --> 00:01:12.519
movie where there's a lot of silence, you can't really do that. But

20
00:01:12.760 --> 00:01:17.159
I think a little off the chart
here for the fourth one, so icy

21
00:01:17.439 --> 00:01:21.519
Swedish fish skittles. I like a
nice pretzel. Not every theater has a

22
00:01:21.519 --> 00:01:25.200
soft pretzel, a nice, soft, warm pretzel. And if you can

23
00:01:25.239 --> 00:01:27.319
get a nacho cheese to dip it
in on top of it, that's a

24
00:01:27.400 --> 00:01:30.840
delight, absolute delight. So this
has nothing to do with that. But

25
00:01:30.879 --> 00:01:33.799
when I used to work at the
snack shop at the skate rink, one

26
00:01:33.840 --> 00:01:38.239
of my favorite treats was a hot
dog with nacho cheese. Get me all

27
00:01:38.280 --> 00:01:42.560
the sodium. Just honestly, nacho
cheese can go with so many things and

28
00:01:42.640 --> 00:01:47.439
it improves so many things. So
first off, can I get a clarification

29
00:01:47.480 --> 00:01:51.359
on the rules that I have created? Does a burrito count? No,

30
00:01:51.439 --> 00:01:53.840
you're gonna buy it at the theater? Okay, So no burrito, no

31
00:01:53.920 --> 00:01:57.359
double burrito, No, no homemade
snacks, no, no outside paraphernalia here.

32
00:01:57.359 --> 00:02:00.359
So I like popables. I like
things like can pop into my mouth.

33
00:02:00.400 --> 00:02:06.079
I love eminem peanuts. Goobers are
essentially the exact same thing, except

34
00:02:06.079 --> 00:02:08.319
without the hard shell. I would
take both of those. No, I

35
00:02:08.400 --> 00:02:14.360
love goobers, don't you dare be? I would take peanut Eminem's over them,

36
00:02:14.400 --> 00:02:16.680
but not by a ton. Don't
say that they're worse. I think

37
00:02:16.719 --> 00:02:21.439
they're a tier below. I like
twizzlers. If I'm gonna have a snack,

38
00:02:21.599 --> 00:02:23.560
that is, you know, me
holding onto it. This is not

39
00:02:23.639 --> 00:02:28.159
gonna melt in my hands, and
it's still breakable, it's still pieces.

40
00:02:28.439 --> 00:02:30.120
I do like a twizzler, but
sometimes you're fighting with it like it's a

41
00:02:30.120 --> 00:02:32.280
piece of beef jerky, you know, trying to rip that thing off.

42
00:02:32.439 --> 00:02:35.840
I guess you make a great point
with the chocolate, And what I would

43
00:02:35.840 --> 00:02:38.800
say with the chocolate is you don't
want something that you have to hold and

44
00:02:38.840 --> 00:02:42.479
that could melt in either your hand
or your pocket. Indeed, yeah,

45
00:02:42.520 --> 00:02:45.400
true. And then icy is just
an easy one. That's a classic one.

46
00:02:45.439 --> 00:02:47.919
I don't often get it anymore,
but when I was younger, always

47
00:02:49.039 --> 00:02:53.400
always well, you run into the
possibility of a brain freeze too, which

48
00:02:53.439 --> 00:02:57.039
which would really, you know,
hurt the movie the theater going experience,

49
00:02:57.120 --> 00:02:59.560
So you don't want that. And
of course number one where you said you

50
00:02:59.560 --> 00:03:04.439
can't pick but movie theater popcorn is
just yeah, it's I mean by that's

51
00:03:04.520 --> 00:03:08.159
that's another thing that is just other
than movies. That's the only thing in

52
00:03:08.199 --> 00:03:12.000
the movie theater that might get you
go to the theater is but I guess

53
00:03:12.000 --> 00:03:23.280
maybe an icy two. But the
movie theater popcorn. Three? Yeah,

54
00:03:24.759 --> 00:03:38.039
just three. King of Queen and
Mill Street entertain Yeah, I'm Goo and

55
00:03:38.240 --> 00:03:43.800
dumb Man. We are the Mac
and Goo program. We bring you friendship.

56
00:03:44.080 --> 00:03:47.159
Yeah, today we're bringing you a
very action packed friendship because today we

57
00:03:47.199 --> 00:03:53.840
are disgusting the latest some may say
the greatest according to Ronny T's it's the

58
00:03:53.879 --> 00:03:59.599
greatest YEP and actually not Metacritic.
Uh. Mission Impossible Dead Reckoning Part one.

59
00:04:00.199 --> 00:04:04.479
This is the seventh installment in the
Mission Impossible franchise, and this is

60
00:04:04.879 --> 00:04:08.759
part one of two. There will
be a Dead Reckoning Part two that'll be

61
00:04:08.800 --> 00:04:13.280
the eighth and I'm assuming that'll be
sort of the end of this Ethan Hunt

62
00:04:14.639 --> 00:04:17.240
was going to be the end to
cruise being in the Mission Impossible movies.

63
00:04:17.279 --> 00:04:20.000
And of course, you know the
thing of the past was he'll pass it

64
00:04:20.000 --> 00:04:23.920
off to Jeremy Runner because that's what
we do with action movies. That does

65
00:04:23.920 --> 00:04:28.360
not seem to be the case anymore. But also while speaking about Indiana Jones,

66
00:04:28.399 --> 00:04:31.160
while speaking about Harrison Ford recently,
Cruz said that I want to do

67
00:04:31.199 --> 00:04:36.959
these and tell him eighty or until
it kills me. Yeah. That's gonna

68
00:04:36.959 --> 00:04:42.439
be an interesting thing, though,
because clearly this movie builds towards a conclusion

69
00:04:42.639 --> 00:04:47.199
where maybe Ethan Hunt dies, maybe
maybe he doesn't, but they're building towards

70
00:04:47.240 --> 00:04:53.399
something like that, some sort of
sacrificial type situation. So I don't know

71
00:04:53.439 --> 00:04:56.279
what they're gonna do after Dead Reckoning
Part two that's gonna get people to go

72
00:04:56.360 --> 00:05:00.959
back, But I digresso the mission
impossible. Dead Reckoning Part one came out

73
00:05:00.040 --> 00:05:03.040
July twelfth, a day ago,
two days ago. This was a Wednesday

74
00:05:03.079 --> 00:05:08.240
release. We missed the boat here. We should have released this episode on

75
00:05:08.319 --> 00:05:11.319
Goose Day. We weren't paying attention. Yeah, we didn't know this was

76
00:05:11.319 --> 00:05:14.240
a Wednesday release. We assumed it
was a Friday. So I thought.

77
00:05:14.279 --> 00:05:17.120
The reason why I didn't do any
research for this, my assumption is is

78
00:05:17.160 --> 00:05:24.240
because Nolan's Oppenheimer has the IMAX theaters
for three weeks exclusively. Cruise put this

79
00:05:24.319 --> 00:05:28.160
out two days early to get the
Imax theaters for a couple more days.

80
00:05:28.560 --> 00:05:30.839
Yeah, and we've also we also
watched this movie like two weeks ago,

81
00:05:30.920 --> 00:05:34.079
so time wasn't of the essence for
us, so that we kind of that

82
00:05:34.120 --> 00:05:39.040
kind of slipped through the cracks there. This is a PG thirteen action adventure

83
00:05:39.040 --> 00:05:42.199
and thriller with a runtime of one
hundred and sixty three minutes. That's two

84
00:05:42.240 --> 00:05:46.399
hours and forty three minutes. This
movie is long now, anything over two

85
00:05:46.439 --> 00:05:48.040
and a half, anything that approaches
two and a half is long. When

86
00:05:48.040 --> 00:05:53.399
you get closer to three, it's
very long. And I actually feel like

87
00:05:53.399 --> 00:05:57.160
this movie is too long. So
I will say this is that it was

88
00:05:57.240 --> 00:06:00.319
very very fun. Don't get me
wrong, a super fun movie. But

89
00:06:00.439 --> 00:06:03.879
there were parts where I was saying
to myself, let's get this going again,

90
00:06:04.240 --> 00:06:09.680
let's please move on. This is
really starting to drag. But whenever

91
00:06:09.720 --> 00:06:13.839
I would say that, they would
give me an amazing action scene right after.

92
00:06:14.079 --> 00:06:17.879
Agree with you. This is just
that classic movie that if they chopped

93
00:06:17.879 --> 00:06:21.560
fifteen to twenty minutes off of I
think it would have been because really substantially

94
00:06:21.600 --> 00:06:27.360
better. But definitively. It's anytime
they let the story breathe, that's when

95
00:06:27.360 --> 00:06:32.279
it got boring because the story not
great. Yeah, I agree there,

96
00:06:32.319 --> 00:06:35.279
but I also felt like there was
a couple of action sequences that went on

97
00:06:35.319 --> 00:06:40.000
too long as well, or like, yes, but they were great though,

98
00:06:40.040 --> 00:06:43.600
and they were shot perfectly, and
Cruz was in there for as long

99
00:06:43.639 --> 00:06:46.800
as he possibly could. Yeah,
that's true. Although I will say this

100
00:06:46.879 --> 00:06:50.759
is that and this is not really
spoilery or whatever, but the um,

101
00:06:51.639 --> 00:06:57.160
the big motorcycle jump that's the one
that's been teased for this movie might be

102
00:06:57.240 --> 00:07:00.000
the worst of the movie. It's
no, that doesn't stay out. No,

103
00:07:00.160 --> 00:07:03.800
it's it's like third or fourth in
the pecking order. I think to

104
00:07:03.800 --> 00:07:08.399
me, there's like five standouts that
might be third or fourth. Go on

105
00:07:08.600 --> 00:07:14.639
Rotten Tomatoes currently ninety six percent from
the critics that's actually second highest, and

106
00:07:14.839 --> 00:07:17.199
ninety four percent from the audience.
That is the highest of the mission.

107
00:07:17.560 --> 00:07:21.600
Because it's hard to dislike this movie. That is very true as well.

108
00:07:21.720 --> 00:07:27.519
Yep on Metacritic in eighty one,
which is fantastic, that is also second

109
00:07:27.560 --> 00:07:31.360
highest. And to give you some
context here, I actually have misspoke over

110
00:07:31.399 --> 00:07:35.560
the last couple of weeks. I
thought Christopher mcquarie was the writer on Mission

111
00:07:35.519 --> 00:07:40.720
Impossible Ghost Protocol. He was not
this that's the Brad Bird directed one.

112
00:07:40.879 --> 00:07:43.480
I thought he was also associated with
that movie, maybe as a producer or

113
00:07:43.480 --> 00:07:46.240
something. I misspoke. So mcquarie
has only been involved in the last three.

114
00:07:46.240 --> 00:07:49.560
But we'll still talk about these last
four. Ghost Protocol twenty eleven,

115
00:07:49.639 --> 00:07:57.160
Rogue Nation twenty fifteen, Fallout twenty
eighteen. These four movies all have they're

116
00:07:57.160 --> 00:08:01.439
obviously direct sequels, but they have
more in common with each other, similar

117
00:08:01.519 --> 00:08:03.680
stories, similar characters, than they
do with the first three. This is

118
00:08:03.680 --> 00:08:07.839
when they decided to make it a
franchise, a continuous story. Yes.

119
00:08:09.079 --> 00:08:13.199
Yeah, And so of those four
movies, I think this one might be

120
00:08:13.279 --> 00:08:18.759
my least favorite. Now I could
see that it's still in the same realm,

121
00:08:18.839 --> 00:08:22.519
right, It's not like a substantial
drop off from those other three movies.

122
00:08:22.879 --> 00:08:26.319
I just feel like this movie just
as a little worse than those three.

123
00:08:26.399 --> 00:08:30.920
Now. I feel like there might
be people coming away based on the

124
00:08:30.959 --> 00:08:33.759
audience reaction to this movie thinking it's
the best Mission Impossible movie. And I

125
00:08:33.759 --> 00:08:39.279
would like to hear their easy does
fun factor play into it? Because fun

126
00:08:39.360 --> 00:08:43.120
factor in this movie might be what
does it? Yep, although some of

127
00:08:43.120 --> 00:08:48.000
it at least you and I laughed
at the movie with the movie Tom Cruise

128
00:08:48.080 --> 00:08:52.720
running on top of the airport is
just funny. Come on. But for

129
00:08:52.799 --> 00:08:56.200
some context, these last four Mission
Impossible movies Ghost Protocol A seventy three on

130
00:08:56.360 --> 00:09:01.799
Metacritic, Rogue Nation of seventy five, Medical call Out in eighty six.

131
00:09:01.159 --> 00:09:05.559
So all four of these movies are
beloved by critics and audiences. So it's

132
00:09:05.600 --> 00:09:09.360
really, you know, a half
six and one hand half dozen in the

133
00:09:09.399 --> 00:09:13.960
other. If any of these four
are your favorite, I think that's you

134
00:09:13.000 --> 00:09:18.039
could argue that Mission Impossible right now
might be the best franchise going. The

135
00:09:18.240 --> 00:09:22.840
argument might be against it if you
add those first three movies in. If

136
00:09:22.840 --> 00:09:26.200
you're looking at just these four,
you might take it over at John Wick.

137
00:09:26.480 --> 00:09:31.120
If it's just if it's four v
four, this might be over Wick.

138
00:09:31.200 --> 00:09:33.120
If it's seven v four, I
go Wick over this. Yeah.

139
00:09:33.159 --> 00:09:37.879
And to remind you guys of the
all seven, the first one, I

140
00:09:37.919 --> 00:09:41.759
believe came out in ninety six,
and it was a pretty groundbreaking action movie,

141
00:09:41.799 --> 00:09:46.679
pretty unique action movie, further spy
espionage action that had that dropping scene.

142
00:09:46.720 --> 00:09:50.320
Of course, which is iconic.
And then two came out in two

143
00:09:50.360 --> 00:09:56.720
thousand, which starred Tandy Newton as
sort of the love interest. And what

144
00:09:56.840 --> 00:10:00.759
happened between ninety six and two thousand
was the popular larity. I mean it

145
00:10:00.799 --> 00:10:03.120
was going anyways, but the Pierce
Brosnen Bond movies I feel like had a

146
00:10:03.240 --> 00:10:07.960
huge effect on Mission Impossible too,
so that like they almost basically tried to

147
00:10:07.960 --> 00:10:13.480
make him James Bond and it just
really did. Yeah, that movie's not

148
00:10:13.639 --> 00:10:16.559
bad, it's just not the same
or up to snuff with the rest of

149
00:10:16.720 --> 00:10:20.840
and the other Billy d give me
a Tony Hopps photoshop. So Anthony Hopkins

150
00:10:20.960 --> 00:10:24.759
riding a skateboard, Yes, there
you go. We'll post that if you

151
00:10:24.840 --> 00:10:28.840
do make that. And then three
was with Philip Steymour Hoffman, which I

152
00:10:28.840 --> 00:10:31.639
think was two thousand and five two
thousand and six, which is pretty good.

153
00:10:31.200 --> 00:10:35.639
As always, he was a great
villain, and that really, you

154
00:10:35.679 --> 00:10:37.360
know, it gave you a ton
of you know, twists and turns,

155
00:10:37.639 --> 00:10:41.600
so that really got us back into
it. I really liked that movie just

156
00:10:41.639 --> 00:10:43.679
a little less than these four.
And then of course Ghost Protocol and Rogue

157
00:10:43.759 --> 00:10:48.000
Nation was the Jeremy Renner error where
they tried to basically move Tom Cruise out,

158
00:10:48.080 --> 00:10:50.360
but they're like, wait, people
love him and this and you get

159
00:10:50.399 --> 00:10:54.320
fall out with Henry Cavill and now
this. So I would say all seven

160
00:10:54.360 --> 00:10:58.159
movies are good. Even Mission Impossible
too, I think is a good movie.

161
00:10:58.200 --> 00:11:03.080
It's just not it's more Bond than
anything. He starts talking British.

162
00:11:03.120 --> 00:11:09.000
This movie is written by chrispher mcquarie
who's also the director. Other credits here

163
00:11:09.080 --> 00:11:13.360
Eric Jendersen, whose only other real
notable thing you would know his Band of

164
00:11:13.399 --> 00:11:16.320
Brothers to television show. And then
Bruce Geller, who gets a credit for

165
00:11:16.360 --> 00:11:20.240
all of these movies because he's the
one he created the TV series. So

166
00:11:20.320 --> 00:11:26.120
it's the movie brother of Ross and
Monica created by and good. Christopher mcquarie

167
00:11:26.159 --> 00:11:30.000
has had a very interesting writing career
here. He wrote The Usual Suspects,

168
00:11:30.240 --> 00:11:33.000
fucking great movie. And there's a
common thing amongst these movies, as you'll

169
00:11:33.039 --> 00:11:39.320
see, it's like sort of espionage
thriller international type stuff. The Way of

170
00:11:39.360 --> 00:11:43.399
the Gun Valkyrie was was his first
team up with Tom Cruise. He wrote

171
00:11:43.399 --> 00:11:48.159
The Tourist, which was an Angelina
Jolie sort of thriller type of thing.

172
00:11:48.440 --> 00:11:52.039
Jack Reacher he did that Tom Cruise
movie, Edge of Tomorrow. He did

173
00:11:52.120 --> 00:11:56.759
that Tom Cruise. He also did
goo another Tom Cruise movie, The Mummy.

174
00:11:56.919 --> 00:12:01.480
Let's say this that was a swing
in him swinging a miss that was

175
00:12:01.480 --> 00:12:05.279
supposed to start the Dark Universe in
it unfortunately ended before it started. And

176
00:12:05.279 --> 00:12:09.080
then of course he did last year's
Top Gun Maverick. So him and tommy

177
00:12:09.240 --> 00:12:11.919
Ce have been working together for fifteen
years now, clearly fans of each other,

178
00:12:11.960 --> 00:12:16.480
friends with each other. And then
of course this is directed by mcquarie

179
00:12:16.519 --> 00:12:20.480
who his other four directing credits are
The Way of the Gun, Jack Reacher,

180
00:12:20.559 --> 00:12:24.399
Rogue Nation and Fallout, and the
only thing he's got upcoming on the

181
00:12:24.440 --> 00:12:31.440
slate is Dead Reckoning Part two.
Life his success has mostly been Tom Cruise,

182
00:12:31.519 --> 00:12:35.960
but also I would say that Tom
Cruise his recent success, his resurgence,

183
00:12:35.279 --> 00:12:41.759
the Tom Cruisanassans has a lot to
do with macquarie. You're absolutely right

184
00:12:41.799 --> 00:12:45.279
about that. It's it's a it's
a they have found a formula. It's

185
00:12:45.279 --> 00:12:48.759
a mutually beneficial relationship, that's for
sure. Gow synopsis of this movie.

186
00:12:50.039 --> 00:12:54.000
Ethan Hunt and his IMF team must
track down a dangerous weapon before it falls

187
00:12:54.039 --> 00:12:58.639
into the wrong hands. Yeah.
I would say my favorite part of the

188
00:12:58.720 --> 00:13:05.080
story is when they introduced his brother
Mike and they just kept saying his full

189
00:13:05.200 --> 00:13:07.759
name. It was really weird.
You can just say my first name.

190
00:13:07.279 --> 00:13:13.879
Mister Hunt is also fine, Yode. This movie stars Tom Cruise as Ethan

191
00:13:13.960 --> 00:13:18.240
Hunt for the seventh time, Hayley
atwell as a newcomer named Grace, who

192
00:13:18.360 --> 00:13:22.799
is fucking fantastic. Yeah. So
we talked earlier about like, hey,

193
00:13:22.840 --> 00:13:26.799
can you move Cruise out of there
and replace him with someone? I think

194
00:13:26.879 --> 00:13:30.639
that she would be great. This
character would be great. I don't know

195
00:13:30.679 --> 00:13:33.879
how well it does at the box
office though, Oh if it's if it's

196
00:13:33.919 --> 00:13:37.879
led by her, yes, yeah, I see, I see that because

197
00:13:37.919 --> 00:13:41.759
I really did like her in this
She was so good. Yeah. Returners

198
00:13:41.840 --> 00:13:46.480
Van Raimes as Luther Stickle, who's
been in all seven the first one or

199
00:13:46.559 --> 00:13:50.759
not. Simon Peg is Benji Dunn, who I think came in in three.

200
00:13:50.840 --> 00:13:54.600
I want to say he has this
character on Locke yep. Rebecca Ferguson

201
00:13:54.639 --> 00:14:00.759
as Elsa Faust, her third uh
at least her third Mister Possible movie.

202
00:14:00.879 --> 00:14:03.759
But Essa Kirby as the White Widow
who was introduced in Fallout, who is

203
00:14:03.799 --> 00:14:07.960
going to be our new suit storm, so I'm looking forward to that.

204
00:14:07.480 --> 00:14:13.039
And then Assai Morales is Gabriel,
who they sort of backdoor into the whole

205
00:14:13.360 --> 00:14:18.519
Tom Cruise ethan Hunt's story here.
And then Palm Clementeeth as Paris, who's

206
00:14:18.559 --> 00:14:24.120
a villain, yes, but she's
also like badassah because I would say that

207
00:14:24.240 --> 00:14:28.159
her character is the biggest mixed bag
in the movie, where like, yeah,

208
00:14:28.480 --> 00:14:31.480
there's points where you like her,
then you think that she's cartoonish,

209
00:14:31.519 --> 00:14:35.919
but then she wins you over by
the end. Yeah, I'd agree.

210
00:14:35.159 --> 00:14:41.720
I think that's an accurate assessment.
We've also got Henry Zernie as Rich Kittridge.

211
00:14:41.320 --> 00:14:45.600
He's the head of the IMF.
You have Shay Wigham as Briggs and

212
00:14:45.720 --> 00:14:50.039
Greg Tarzan Davis, which is an
all time great name is dagas they're the

213
00:14:50.039 --> 00:14:54.919
two IMF agents chasing Hunt the whole
time. You have Frederick Schmidt as Zola

214
00:14:54.039 --> 00:14:58.159
that's Kirby's right hand man there,
and then Carrie Elwez plays the President den

215
00:14:58.279 --> 00:15:03.240
Linger. Uh, he's fine,
He's always okay, do to me.

216
00:15:03.480 --> 00:15:09.360
This movie is oddly like the most
serious mission impossible movie we've gotten, but

217
00:15:09.559 --> 00:15:15.639
also kind of the funniest as well. It's it's a weird it's weird fact

218
00:15:15.639 --> 00:15:18.879
though that it's kind of corny,
right, it's corny, but they also

219
00:15:18.960 --> 00:15:20.720
went out of their way for a
couple of jokes, which they do in

220
00:15:20.759 --> 00:15:24.200
the past, but I don't it's
a weird mix. The script is weird,

221
00:15:24.279 --> 00:15:28.159
yeah, because written weird. So
I describe a lot of movies as

222
00:15:28.320 --> 00:15:31.679
cheesy. I wouldn't even call this
one cheesy. I look at it as

223
00:15:31.720 --> 00:15:33.720
being more corny. It's a little
and that's what I'm saying, like we're

224
00:15:33.799 --> 00:15:37.679
laughing with it at times, but
we also laughed at but also they know

225
00:15:37.720 --> 00:15:41.600
what they're doing though. They know
when to be corny, yes, and

226
00:15:41.240 --> 00:15:45.559
but sometimes they take it too far
as well. Once again, Tom Cruise

227
00:15:45.639 --> 00:15:48.080
running on top of an airport,
a couple of eye rolls and hair a

228
00:15:48.120 --> 00:15:50.919
few I rolls in this movie.
And then the plot of this movie Goo

229
00:15:52.279 --> 00:15:54.000
is also sort of an I roll. It's it. It would be the

230
00:15:54.039 --> 00:15:58.600
plot of a movie that came out
when the first one really generic, right,

231
00:15:58.000 --> 00:16:00.919
and they almost take it back to
the original mission impossible here, like

232
00:16:00.960 --> 00:16:04.720
this is a very very genetic you're
dealing with an AI first off, one

233
00:16:04.720 --> 00:16:07.399
that you can see. I hate
the fact that you can see the AI,

234
00:16:07.720 --> 00:16:11.720
like, just have it be in
the fucking internet, like, we

235
00:16:11.759 --> 00:16:15.759
don't know where it is. And
then also they're dealing with a key.

236
00:16:15.960 --> 00:16:18.240
We have to find this key.
The key is the mcguffin. This is

237
00:16:18.320 --> 00:16:25.799
Transformers once again. Well the immediate
comparison or love Child though made when this

238
00:16:25.840 --> 00:16:29.759
movie finished. As I said,
this is essentially a Lord of the Rings

239
00:16:29.759 --> 00:16:33.559
movie meets Skynet. That's what it
feels like. Elements of both, but

240
00:16:33.639 --> 00:16:37.639
it's worse than both of those things. What if we found it at the

241
00:16:37.799 --> 00:16:41.279
end that Tom Cruise, you know, gets the key or gets whatever it

242
00:16:41.360 --> 00:16:44.960
is, and he goes to put
it with another key and it turns out

243
00:16:45.000 --> 00:16:48.600
that Optimus Prime has it. And
by the way, we're spoiler free here,

244
00:16:48.600 --> 00:16:52.000
but there's really not much to spoil
in this movie. Oh and by

245
00:16:52.000 --> 00:16:55.559
the way, by the way,
the key is called the Entity, which

246
00:16:56.000 --> 00:17:00.600
that pissed me off the entire movie. That sounded like something first stuff,

247
00:17:00.600 --> 00:17:04.759
that's jargon that's been used for so
long, and it's something that I feel

248
00:17:04.759 --> 00:17:08.279
like they wrote in the script and
said that's a placeholder, we'll fix that

249
00:17:08.359 --> 00:17:11.440
up later, and they just never
did again, that's sort of to my

250
00:17:11.519 --> 00:17:15.559
point, it would have made more
sense of this movie with that type of

251
00:17:15.759 --> 00:17:19.599
plot and plot device came out in
ninety six. Because the plot of this

252
00:17:19.680 --> 00:17:23.720
movie, to what we're speaking about, is that there's a global AI system

253
00:17:25.000 --> 00:17:29.000
that has become self aware. So
we've seen this in numerous movies, and

254
00:17:29.079 --> 00:17:33.720
it has begun systematically picking apart the
world's like strongest countries and whatnot. It's

255
00:17:33.720 --> 00:17:38.799
hacking satellites all this ship submarines,
yeah, getting into the nation's highest of

256
00:17:38.839 --> 00:17:42.279
security type things. And the only
way that they can shut this down,

257
00:17:42.359 --> 00:17:48.759
they assume, is to find it's
like original hardware where it was originally put

258
00:17:48.799 --> 00:17:53.240
online, and that happens to be
in a sunken Russian submarine. And in

259
00:17:53.359 --> 00:17:57.799
order to access that hardware you need
a key. But the key has two

260
00:17:57.839 --> 00:18:02.519
parts to it. Yes, you're
like that whole thing. The whole plot

261
00:18:02.559 --> 00:18:04.880
is sort of an eye roll.
Really it's not great, but you say

262
00:18:04.920 --> 00:18:10.319
that the weak plot, and they
pull it off. They do because of

263
00:18:10.359 --> 00:18:14.480
the fun and the action. Yeah, they pull it off to a good

264
00:18:14.559 --> 00:18:17.559
enough degree. They don't crush it. It's not a forty dog movie.

265
00:18:17.799 --> 00:18:19.880
No, no, no, they
make it work. Oh, by the

266
00:18:19.880 --> 00:18:22.720
way, so you're speaking about AI. This has nothing to do with the

267
00:18:22.759 --> 00:18:27.039
movie. But did you see that
zookeepers are telling people that are attending the

268
00:18:27.119 --> 00:18:33.720
zoo not to show the monkeys YouTube
videos because the monkeys are becoming self aware

269
00:18:33.799 --> 00:18:37.839
that there's things outside of the zoo. Oh, we don't need listen.

270
00:18:37.119 --> 00:18:45.200
Primates are very smart animals. The
last thing we need is monkeys becoming self

271
00:18:45.240 --> 00:18:48.680
aware, because I feel like monkeys
really could escape if they wanted. Yea

272
00:18:48.799 --> 00:18:51.559
right. I feel like if they
if they put their minds to it,

273
00:18:51.599 --> 00:18:56.119
they could. The last thing we
need them to do is to team up

274
00:18:56.119 --> 00:19:00.599
with like Orcas and do a land
and sea assault and we figured out how

275
00:19:00.640 --> 00:19:06.480
we die. That's I think that's
the ticket. If those two team up,

276
00:19:06.559 --> 00:19:11.960
we are fucked, absolutely fucked.
The Orcas have already become aware of

277
00:19:11.000 --> 00:19:15.359
what SeaWorld is and what we've done
to them. Yeah, we don't need

278
00:19:15.400 --> 00:19:18.440
that. The last thing. Yeah, we don't need monkeys breaking in the

279
00:19:18.480 --> 00:19:21.680
SeaWorld and breaking out the Orcas.
That that'll be the end of us.

280
00:19:21.759 --> 00:19:25.319
We'll be absolutely fuck then, ud
you want to get into the Gauntlet.

281
00:19:25.480 --> 00:19:30.359
Yes, the Gauntlet, the big
old fun stuff that we do for movies.

282
00:19:30.720 --> 00:19:33.240
Hey, Mac, how about the
fun factor? And like I already

283
00:19:33.279 --> 00:19:37.960
said earlier, this movie is maybe
the funnest of the franchise. Yeah,

284
00:19:37.000 --> 00:19:41.480
I think it of the seven movies, this is probably the most fun had.

285
00:19:41.920 --> 00:19:47.279
But with a caveat that, yeah, some of it is corny as

286
00:19:47.319 --> 00:19:52.119
fuck. Satisfactor, How satisfying is
this movie? And of course you know,

287
00:19:52.160 --> 00:19:55.240
with it being part one, it
does a good enough job of getting

288
00:19:55.319 --> 00:19:57.799
us to that second movie. But
like we've said, with the plot,

289
00:19:59.160 --> 00:20:03.000
you know, you need to have
this much fun in the second movie to

290
00:20:03.079 --> 00:20:07.640
pull off the sequel because the plot
is not great. Yeah, and to

291
00:20:07.240 --> 00:20:11.839
my points at the top here,
obviously there are some satisfying things in this

292
00:20:11.880 --> 00:20:17.039
movie. There's always satisfying things in
every action movie, but the bar set

293
00:20:17.079 --> 00:20:21.640
by the three prior movies, I
don't know if this movie quite hit there.

294
00:20:22.079 --> 00:20:26.480
So in that respect, a little
dissatisfying, but overall not a dissatisfying

295
00:20:26.480 --> 00:20:30.640
experience. Borometer, How boring was
this movie? And like I said earlier,

296
00:20:32.000 --> 00:20:36.720
you know, as they deal with
stuff that has to do with looking

297
00:20:36.720 --> 00:20:40.039
for the key or getting the key
or not. Even when they plan stuff

298
00:20:40.039 --> 00:20:44.400
focus I like them planning out their
missions that's fun. But as you look

299
00:20:44.440 --> 00:20:48.920
at the storyline and you know,
just the beats between the action kind of

300
00:20:48.920 --> 00:20:52.640
boring. I got bored. There
are times where there was just a little

301
00:20:52.640 --> 00:20:56.160
bit too much in both respects,
a little too much or too far in

302
00:20:56.200 --> 00:21:00.920
the action sequences or a little bit
too much of the well in between,

303
00:21:00.319 --> 00:21:06.519
and in both instances I felt bored. Equator Is this better than twenty seventeen's

304
00:21:06.559 --> 00:21:11.559
Aquaman? So clearly above, But
now I have an interesting equator for the

305
00:21:11.599 --> 00:21:15.519
Mission Impossible franchise. I think this
might be smack dab in the middle.

306
00:21:15.759 --> 00:21:19.039
I think this might be the fourth
best movie, and therefore ipso facto do

307
00:21:19.440 --> 00:21:26.519
it becomes the equator of the Mission
Impossible franchise, the imposse equator. Even

308
00:21:26.519 --> 00:21:33.279
the Mission Impossible three is good,
So maybe that's the equator Halloween. Will

309
00:21:33.319 --> 00:21:37.599
this movie wane over a time?
Yeah? Sure will. Yeah, it's

310
00:21:37.599 --> 00:21:41.799
almost destined to wayne right. It's
a part one of a part two series.

311
00:21:41.880 --> 00:21:47.079
Yea. And like the fact that
it's two hundred or what two hours

312
00:21:47.079 --> 00:21:49.640
and forty three minutes, Like that's
just too long. Any movie that long

313
00:21:49.720 --> 00:21:53.359
is gonna wan because like, what
if you want to compare it to you

314
00:21:53.400 --> 00:21:57.440
know his recent success of Top Gun
two. That movie has not waned at

315
00:21:57.440 --> 00:22:02.079
all. If not, I have
more respect for it. So like,

316
00:22:02.359 --> 00:22:04.759
I don't think it's going to have
that effect on me. That movie is

317
00:22:04.880 --> 00:22:07.960
much more crisp than this one.
Yeah, for sure, Pants, Tan

318
00:22:08.119 --> 00:22:11.920
City, Excite, Mike Mania.
What got you going? And I'll tell

319
00:22:11.920 --> 00:22:17.799
you this right now. The third
act action scene was dope. There again,

320
00:22:17.799 --> 00:22:18.880
we'll get to this, I guess
in spoilers, but there are four

321
00:22:18.920 --> 00:22:22.680
or five action sequences in here that
are fucking awesome. But the true pant

322
00:22:22.720 --> 00:22:27.079
step for me, I think is
the sequence with Cruise and Atwell in the

323
00:22:27.119 --> 00:22:30.759
train cars and that whole thing.
I thought that was fucking incredible. Yeah,

324
00:22:30.759 --> 00:22:34.519
I thought it was really really cool
because leading up to it, it's

325
00:22:34.559 --> 00:22:38.680
something we've seen a million times before. But I thought the way that they

326
00:22:38.759 --> 00:22:42.240
got out of that was something incredibly
new and incredibly awesome. Yeah, because

327
00:22:42.319 --> 00:22:45.359
leading up to that, I was
saying to myself, this is really where

328
00:22:45.400 --> 00:22:48.279
I want to get off. I've
had enough, you know, let's go

329
00:22:48.319 --> 00:22:52.880
ahead and just bookmark this and we'll
just jump into it for part two.

330
00:22:52.359 --> 00:22:56.079
But then they said let's get off
the top of the train, which I

331
00:22:56.960 --> 00:22:59.319
just don't like. I think that's
stupid. Now, yeah, I agree,

332
00:22:59.319 --> 00:23:03.119
And it said let's run through these
train cars and that's awesome, that's

333
00:23:03.119 --> 00:23:04.000
great. It was really cool.
Yeah, it's great. It was fun.

334
00:23:04.359 --> 00:23:07.240
Max credit Union, Who are you
giving credit to? So I said

335
00:23:07.279 --> 00:23:11.599
it. When we're introducing the cast
here, Haley Atwell legit goes toe to

336
00:23:11.640 --> 00:23:15.240
toe with Tom Cruise in this movie. She's every bit as good as he

337
00:23:15.319 --> 00:23:19.960
is, if not better, and
um like as good as Rebecca Ferguson has

338
00:23:21.000 --> 00:23:25.119
been in these movies. I don't
know if I truly believe her as sort

339
00:23:25.119 --> 00:23:27.920
of a lead in one of these
missions, but Haley Atwell pulls that off,

340
00:23:27.960 --> 00:23:33.039
pulls it off better than Becky fergus
has. At least I thought I

341
00:23:33.079 --> 00:23:34.559
would also go with her. She
was great. And then you know Cruz

342
00:23:34.640 --> 00:23:41.119
is just like he's the he's the
continent. He's constantly yes, always hot

343
00:23:41.160 --> 00:23:49.599
dogs, hot dogs, hot dogs
hot What was remember? Was it like

344
00:23:49.640 --> 00:23:53.880
the the music a rama? Remember
when they would have all the like the

345
00:23:55.000 --> 00:23:57.920
high school, middle school and elementary
school bands go to the high school and

346
00:23:59.039 --> 00:24:03.599
play music forever everybody? What was
that the bandarrama? I think it was

347
00:24:03.640 --> 00:24:10.799
the bandarrama and I didn't. Yes, so every year one class would always

348
00:24:10.799 --> 00:24:17.680
play Mission Impossible. It's an incredibly
satisfied Yeah, it's all right for those

349
00:24:17.720 --> 00:24:19.720
of you tardy to the Mac and
Goop party. We rade everything on a

350
00:24:19.759 --> 00:24:25.400
forty hot dog rating system. Mac
and I believe that this is a pretty

351
00:24:25.480 --> 00:24:27.880
great movie. Am I saying a
film? No, but we don't really

352
00:24:27.920 --> 00:24:33.039
care about that. Yeah. Awesome
action scenes, especially how they sprinkle them.

353
00:24:33.079 --> 00:24:37.400
They spaced them out pretty well,
like you start out pretty good,

354
00:24:37.720 --> 00:24:40.680
then at the end of the first
act, second act, then they topped

355
00:24:40.680 --> 00:24:44.839
them each act, so credit there
as well. Tom Cruise always good,

356
00:24:44.880 --> 00:24:48.200
but might be one of the weaker
characters in this movie, because Carter and

357
00:24:48.240 --> 00:24:52.839
Furgy are great. Kirby's Dreamland also
very good, one step below the other

358
00:24:52.839 --> 00:24:56.599
two. And then I would say
that Palm won me over by the end.

359
00:24:56.640 --> 00:25:00.279
But you know, kind of cartoonish
as we went a long, very

360
00:25:00.319 --> 00:25:04.119
good bad guy. A little bit
of his face is George Clooney, like

361
00:25:04.680 --> 00:25:08.440
not like, is he more handsome
than George Clooney. No, he's not

362
00:25:08.480 --> 00:25:11.119
more handsome, but he isn't a
handsome fella for sure. He's a different

363
00:25:11.200 --> 00:25:15.359
kind of handsome he's not as classically
handsome. No, he's a he's a

364
00:25:15.480 --> 00:25:19.599
he's a darker and more menacing bad
guy look. But also I'm not a

365
00:25:19.640 --> 00:25:22.720
fan of the visible AI. There's
no need to see like the lights and

366
00:25:22.720 --> 00:25:26.359
stuff moving around, like, oh, it's watching you. We can just

367
00:25:26.400 --> 00:25:29.960
assume that it's watching us, much
like in real life the AI is watching

368
00:25:30.039 --> 00:25:33.079
us right now. I think that
was a little bit of a much as

369
00:25:33.079 --> 00:25:37.240
we saw a spider Man far from
home to like a billion drones or like,

370
00:25:37.279 --> 00:25:40.039
all right, we get it.
We don't need all these. Look,

371
00:25:40.079 --> 00:25:44.279
the story is very simple and also
kind of dumb, even possibly.

372
00:25:44.319 --> 00:25:48.200
I'm not saying that it's stupid,
but some parts do feel kind of lazy

373
00:25:48.319 --> 00:25:51.920
right now. What is the difference
between stupid and dumb? I don't know,

374
00:25:52.119 --> 00:25:56.920
Man, Am I stupid? Am
I dumb? I think stupid is

375
00:25:56.000 --> 00:26:00.039
more constant. Dumb is more of
an instant one type thing, Like I

376
00:26:00.079 --> 00:26:03.839
hate the entity thing. Just call
it something else. Also, maybe find

377
00:26:03.839 --> 00:26:08.240
a different mcguffin. I don't know, it's up to you, but there

378
00:26:08.279 --> 00:26:12.440
are just whenever I started to get
bored, they pulled me right back in.

379
00:26:12.960 --> 00:26:18.279
So credit there and although corny on
occasion, I really did think it

380
00:26:18.359 --> 00:26:22.720
was fun and they leaned into it, and I'm going thirty five hot dogs.

381
00:26:22.119 --> 00:26:26.359
Oh all right, yeah, strong
score, and I totally understand that

382
00:26:27.079 --> 00:26:32.039
good. Like I said, there
are multiple times in this movie where I

383
00:26:32.079 --> 00:26:34.000
was laughing at it and not with
it, so that obviously has to take

384
00:26:34.039 --> 00:26:37.519
away from it. I just don't
feel like that's true. But the prior

385
00:26:37.640 --> 00:26:41.839
three, which is also why I
have this maybe a notchdown from those three.

386
00:26:41.359 --> 00:26:45.680
They certainly go out of their way
for some action here, and I

387
00:26:45.720 --> 00:26:49.960
also feel like sometimes that was a
detriment to the movie. And in most

388
00:26:51.039 --> 00:26:56.359
cases in these movies, the action
sequences are fucking ridiculous and insane. I

389
00:26:56.400 --> 00:26:59.920
just feel like this one went a
little too far at times. The real

390
00:27:00.119 --> 00:27:04.119
core of this franchise has been that
action espionage balance, and although there's a

391
00:27:04.119 --> 00:27:07.480
ton of twists and turns and a
ton of action, I did feel like

392
00:27:07.519 --> 00:27:11.440
they did a little too much in
both right, A little bit was like

393
00:27:11.519 --> 00:27:14.519
beyond what they needed to do.
I want as many twists as possible.

394
00:27:14.960 --> 00:27:18.720
I just feel like this movie almost
indulged too much, right, And maybe

395
00:27:18.920 --> 00:27:22.400
for some people that that'll never be
the case. It's not possible, but

396
00:27:22.519 --> 00:27:23.920
for me, that's how I come
away feeling. But what I did like

397
00:27:25.000 --> 00:27:27.400
those that they didn't yell a ton
about people going rogue, like it's just

398
00:27:27.440 --> 00:27:34.079
assumed. Now, Yeah, the
score in this movie, Goya is so

399
00:27:34.160 --> 00:27:38.279
intense and so constant that I also
think that took away from the movie a

400
00:27:38.319 --> 00:27:42.720
little bit again, a little too
much. That's what that's my common takeaway

401
00:27:44.079 --> 00:27:48.279
from the movie here. And because
it's also very long, that's another doc

402
00:27:48.400 --> 00:27:52.440
here. So it's just there's and
these are little things. And again I'm

403
00:27:52.440 --> 00:27:56.759
weighing these up against three other fantastic
movies, three of the best movies of

404
00:27:56.759 --> 00:28:00.400
the last fifteen years, I would
say, anyway, So I gotta be

405
00:28:00.400 --> 00:28:04.079
a little critical here. That said, the chick characters were great, as

406
00:28:04.079 --> 00:28:10.400
you as you mentioned, great job, Hailey att Well, Clein Palm and

407
00:28:10.440 --> 00:28:15.839
teeth. All right, pomp Clem, palm and teeth is a great name.

408
00:28:15.440 --> 00:28:32.680
We did a Hailey Hatwell, Kanessa
Verby, Vanessa Kirby was very good.

409
00:28:32.960 --> 00:28:34.480
Zacky Bergason, but all right,
let's let's move past. Yeah,

410
00:28:34.519 --> 00:28:40.200
and then uh mole man here the
guy that plays Gabriel the villain, I

411
00:28:40.200 --> 00:28:44.200
already forget his name. I couldn't
help but think of the whole time.

412
00:28:44.240 --> 00:28:48.240
But he was good, quiet,
menacing villain. I enjoyed him and give

413
00:28:48.599 --> 00:28:51.839
again. As I mentioned in the
tease a few days ago, this movie

414
00:28:51.880 --> 00:28:55.759
has probably my two, maybe even
three favorite action sequences on the year,

415
00:28:56.000 --> 00:28:59.400
so that's a big plus as well. It's a very well made movie on

416
00:28:59.519 --> 00:29:03.119
every single level, even though the
story is lacking quite a bit compared to

417
00:29:03.160 --> 00:29:07.599
the last three. I just feel
like it's it's a notch below. So

418
00:29:07.759 --> 00:29:11.079
for that reason, I've got this
at thirty four. Hot dougs. I

419
00:29:11.200 --> 00:29:14.119
like that I think a little less
than you, but I think I probably

420
00:29:14.160 --> 00:29:18.039
had an higher expectation than you as
well, So maybe that's why it's either

421
00:29:18.079 --> 00:29:21.279
the fourth or fifth best movie for
me on the year. So again,

422
00:29:21.400 --> 00:29:26.319
still rating very well year, just
ahead of it or no, definitively ahead

423
00:29:26.319 --> 00:29:29.480
of it. The three or four
maybe above it here are across the Spider

424
00:29:29.559 --> 00:29:33.480
Verse, Air and Guardians Volume three. I also might have go this is

425
00:29:33.480 --> 00:29:37.079
a new addition. I just watched
US the other day, Missing, which

426
00:29:37.119 --> 00:29:40.000
came out earlier this year. It's
on Netflix right now. Great thriller,

427
00:29:40.359 --> 00:29:45.079
Great thriller. I'm having a hard
time valuing that movie up against this and

428
00:29:45.119 --> 00:29:48.039
then this movie is just ahead of
the Flash and Quantum Media for me.

429
00:29:48.160 --> 00:29:52.119
So so it's obviously a very good
movie. I would have the same three

430
00:29:52.279 --> 00:29:56.640
ahead between Guardians Air and Spider Verse, and I would also have Wick four

431
00:29:56.759 --> 00:30:00.000
ahead of this. Okay, yeah, so you have it as the fifth

432
00:30:00.079 --> 00:30:03.400
or sixth best movie, right,
Yeah. But I would also say that

433
00:30:03.440 --> 00:30:07.119
it's closer to being a soft thirty
five than a rock hard thirty five.

434
00:30:07.319 --> 00:30:10.240
Okay, yeah, I was.
I was writing that range too, and

435
00:30:10.319 --> 00:30:12.880
have been going back and forth between
those two number scores. And really it

436
00:30:12.960 --> 00:30:17.799
was the train scene at the end
that won me over. And shall we

437
00:30:17.839 --> 00:30:23.359
start spoiling spoilers? Um, there
is a part where he jumps out of

438
00:30:23.400 --> 00:30:29.319
the train at the end and he's
on like a parasailing squirrel thing or something.

439
00:30:29.519 --> 00:30:33.519
No, it's it's one of those
like fast flying parashutes and you like

440
00:30:33.680 --> 00:30:37.759
zoomed down mountains basically, um.
And all I could think of was him

441
00:30:37.880 --> 00:30:44.240
kicking his feet and going, this
is why I am make movie. I

442
00:30:44.359 --> 00:30:47.799
do remember you laughing at that for
like more than you should have. You

443
00:30:47.880 --> 00:30:53.720
just were laughing like at that little
Tom cruise kicking his feet. So goose,

444
00:30:53.759 --> 00:30:57.599
speaking of those five standout action scenes. My favorite went on the air,

445
00:30:57.599 --> 00:31:00.279
as I mentioned, was this train
scene. So at one point in

446
00:31:00.440 --> 00:31:04.640
this movie, close to the very
end of it, there's a dumb fight

447
00:31:04.720 --> 00:31:08.279
on top of the train, which
then ends up being inside of the train,

448
00:31:08.599 --> 00:31:14.319
and then they have this old timey
train bridge explosion where the train's gonna

449
00:31:14.359 --> 00:31:15.960
fall off, and they do that
and you're like, all right, whatever,

450
00:31:17.200 --> 00:31:22.960
but the execution yea and cruising atwell
gets stuck at the bottom train and

451
00:31:22.000 --> 00:31:26.240
they have to parkour their way up
through these train cars. It's fucking awesome.

452
00:31:26.240 --> 00:31:30.319
It's exhilarating, it's so fun to
watch. So that was I think

453
00:31:30.559 --> 00:31:33.880
the a one standout scene of the
movie. And then you also had an

454
00:31:33.920 --> 00:31:38.519
awesome scene here where every character was
in play, and this is when they

455
00:31:38.559 --> 00:31:42.039
flee that outdoor party in the middle
of the city. All the characters get

456
00:31:42.079 --> 00:31:48.200
separated, you get a few fights, and it culminates in Ilsa fighting Gabriel

457
00:31:48.240 --> 00:31:52.039
on the bridge there, which was
a great scene and ultimately culminates in Becky

458
00:31:52.119 --> 00:31:55.720
Fergus dying. So I like that
there were some stakes here. A character

459
00:31:55.839 --> 00:31:59.279
that Ethan Hunt knew in love died, a character that's been here for a

460
00:31:59.279 --> 00:32:01.759
few movies that I thought that was
pretty cool. And then Goo You also

461
00:32:01.799 --> 00:32:07.079
had the great reintroduction to ilsa um, like fifteen minutes into the movie with

462
00:32:07.160 --> 00:32:13.119
that desert scene with the battle.
That was pretty fucking cool. Obviously,

463
00:32:13.480 --> 00:32:16.880
the one that has been teased the
whole time here is that motorbike mountain jump.

464
00:32:17.200 --> 00:32:21.799
It's cool, that's fine. For
eight months, it was good.

465
00:32:21.960 --> 00:32:28.000
The Fiat with the cross handed drive
through that was amazing. So that one

466
00:32:28.200 --> 00:32:32.680
also that second or third best you
Tom Cruise took six months to learn how

467
00:32:32.720 --> 00:32:37.440
to drift to shoot that scene.
That's pretty cool that that card shapes and

468
00:32:37.119 --> 00:32:42.599
the visuals of the Fiat and the
Hummer going through the city was fucking awesome.

469
00:32:42.640 --> 00:32:46.079
That was great too. Um let
me um so for how good Tom

470
00:32:46.160 --> 00:32:52.279
Cruise is at running on film,
like he's the best Everett running on film.

471
00:32:52.720 --> 00:32:55.680
Yeah, I think he is that
bad at throwing a punch on film.

472
00:32:57.039 --> 00:32:59.720
He's a little man, that's why. So he's a little man.

473
00:33:00.359 --> 00:33:04.799
I'm not a brawler. I'm not
really a fighter myself. But he gets

474
00:33:04.839 --> 00:33:08.880
down low and he like it looks
like he cocks his hand back right like,

475
00:33:09.160 --> 00:33:12.599
well you got you gotta get the
power from the hip scoo from the

476
00:33:12.599 --> 00:33:15.519
lower half. The issue is because
he's probably shorter than most, he's got

477
00:33:15.519 --> 00:33:22.160
to coil himself up right a viper. The issue is just it's always coming

478
00:33:22.240 --> 00:33:24.759
up. Yeah. So, speaking
of the running, there is one scene

479
00:33:24.759 --> 00:33:30.119
in this pretty good airport scene where
they're on the run from being you know,

480
00:33:30.160 --> 00:33:31.440
they're being chased and they're trying to
get Haley at well, they're trying

481
00:33:31.480 --> 00:33:36.680
to get the entity and um.
At the end, she gets on a

482
00:33:36.759 --> 00:33:42.720
flight to Rome and we have like
an over the shoulder shot of the guys

483
00:33:42.759 --> 00:33:45.720
looking for Ethan Hunt and we see
Ethan Hunt running on the top of the

484
00:33:45.799 --> 00:33:51.480
airport, and then the exact next
scene he is in Rome. My question

485
00:33:52.359 --> 00:33:58.240
does he run to Rome? So
in my mind I like to believe that

486
00:33:58.319 --> 00:34:04.720
he ran to Rome. Yeah,
that's like no wasted effort either, the

487
00:34:04.799 --> 00:34:08.159
running scenes because they do it so
much. Now that's a little bit of

488
00:34:08.159 --> 00:34:13.960
the other the scene that you were
talking about where everyone's in play. There

489
00:34:14.119 --> 00:34:16.119
is a bit too much of cruise
running in that scene too. There's a

490
00:34:16.119 --> 00:34:19.960
lot of running in that. But
I did like the little alley fight scene

491
00:34:20.000 --> 00:34:23.039
between him and Clem, Him Clem
and the other person. So that was

492
00:34:23.559 --> 00:34:29.920
that. I listen, there's so
many good action scenes in here that I

493
00:34:29.639 --> 00:34:32.679
don't I feel like this movie automatically
everyone's gonna like but if it should have

494
00:34:32.719 --> 00:34:36.920
been better? Yeah, but the
but the plot and the plot device of

495
00:34:36.960 --> 00:34:40.440
the entity is dumb. Yeah,
it's just dumb. And this movie's really

496
00:34:40.599 --> 00:34:45.280
long. Like Tom Cruise ran so
much in this movie that at one point

497
00:34:45.400 --> 00:34:51.599
Simon Peg said, Hey, are
you at Haunted Mansion right now? Your

498
00:34:51.599 --> 00:34:58.400
heart's going crazy? He's sixty one
guys. Also, so I really did

499
00:34:58.519 --> 00:35:02.159
like Hayley atwell, there is one
point so she is like she's a career

500
00:35:02.239 --> 00:35:06.920
con artist, she's a thief.
And then when she joins up with the

501
00:35:06.960 --> 00:35:10.360
boys and the Bucket and they're doing
kind of a heist a little bit,

502
00:35:10.400 --> 00:35:15.280
they're trying to get the entity.
Um, she is very timid, she's

503
00:35:15.320 --> 00:35:20.280
afraid. I don't know, that
seemed kind of out of character, but

504
00:35:20.400 --> 00:35:23.119
maybe it's just something that she's never
done before. Yeah, it's like higher

505
00:35:23.159 --> 00:35:27.719
stakes for her that she's never really
but she's also dealt with things like that

506
00:35:27.719 --> 00:35:30.960
though life in death situation. I
don't know if she has really until that

507
00:35:31.119 --> 00:35:36.320
instance. What do you think she's
been working street corners flipping cards. Yeah,

508
00:35:36.440 --> 00:35:39.119
that's it. Yeah, but yeah, this is a great movie.

509
00:35:39.559 --> 00:35:44.800
That's I see. I hesitate calling
it great. I think that's a different

510
00:35:45.239 --> 00:35:47.039
This is okay, here we go. This is a great theater movie.

511
00:35:47.320 --> 00:35:52.039
I actually that's actually I think thirty
five thirty six is right where you can

512
00:35:52.079 --> 00:35:54.239
call it great and I'm just a
tick below it. That's all I'm gonna

513
00:35:54.239 --> 00:35:57.840
say. Great theater movie, though, I'm not even gonna say so.

514
00:35:58.079 --> 00:36:00.119
This is not something that I want
to watch at home. But this is

515
00:36:00.159 --> 00:36:05.199
something that is absolutely worth your time
in the theaters and it's a great,

516
00:36:05.679 --> 00:36:08.960
great time. Yeah. I mean
again, it's got ninety four from the

517
00:36:09.000 --> 00:36:13.119
audience, so obviously most people were
liking this. I'd like to see what

518
00:36:13.159 --> 00:36:15.840
the bottom end of that is.
I think the bottom ends only like thirty

519
00:36:15.880 --> 00:36:19.239
thirty two, So it's it's got
to meet a lot of what people are

520
00:36:19.280 --> 00:36:22.039
looking for in a Mission Impossible movie. I just feel like I expected a

521
00:36:22.079 --> 00:36:25.440
little bit more, especially from the
story. I would also love it if

522
00:36:25.440 --> 00:36:29.679
in the next one they start calling
the entity something else and they're like,

523
00:36:30.000 --> 00:36:35.199
oh, we've always called it this. I hated it. I hated that

524
00:36:35.239 --> 00:36:37.760
so much. Yeah, and they
said the lot. They said it the

525
00:36:37.800 --> 00:36:39.559
lot is a dumb versus stupid.
I don't know, it's definitely dumb.

526
00:36:43.159 --> 00:36:52.079
Yeah, MAXA could be anything.
It could be a boat. And right

527
00:36:52.119 --> 00:36:55.880
now, let's tease what's coming up
for Mac and Gue because it's the summertime

528
00:36:55.920 --> 00:37:02.719
and we've got some scheduling issues.
Must I would share McK and I having

529
00:37:02.719 --> 00:37:07.639
this discussion from before the podcast,
but I feel like we were both yelling

530
00:37:07.679 --> 00:37:09.840
at each other saying the same thing. Yeah, we agreed on ninety eight

531
00:37:09.840 --> 00:37:15.239
percent of the same schedule, so
essentially Good and I both have a vacation

532
00:37:15.280 --> 00:37:17.760
coming up that's unavoidable. It happens
to be on the fucking weekend that's Barbie

533
00:37:17.840 --> 00:37:22.440
versus Oppenheimer, the weekend that we've
been talking maybe the biggest movie weekend in

534
00:37:22.519 --> 00:37:25.519
twenty years. It's just really bad
timing, and we've been absolutely fucked by

535
00:37:25.519 --> 00:37:30.119
the screeners here. You're we're seeing
different movies on the same night. Yeah,

536
00:37:30.199 --> 00:37:35.719
fucking so I am going to an
influencer screening of Barbie. We're all

537
00:37:35.760 --> 00:37:39.079
wearing pink and white, but all
going to drink Cosmos. I just don't

538
00:37:39.159 --> 00:37:43.440
understand because these movies have been hyped
for so long, we should have screeners

539
00:37:43.440 --> 00:37:45.119
for these weeks in advance. Really, I honestly thought that we were going

540
00:37:45.159 --> 00:37:47.920
to watch the Barbie movie on the
Barbie Cruise, and then my wife's like,

541
00:37:47.920 --> 00:37:50.880
that doesn't make any sense, and
I said, oh, wait a

542
00:37:50.920 --> 00:37:53.880
second, it doesn't so good.
And I will be seeing Barbie and Oppenheimer

543
00:37:53.920 --> 00:37:59.360
separately Barbenheimer, which means we'll both
have to see the other movie in what

544
00:37:59.480 --> 00:38:02.000
we talk of about it. However, we have vacations that upcoming weekend,

545
00:38:02.320 --> 00:38:06.679
so we don't have an exact date
for when we'll be talking about those two

546
00:38:07.119 --> 00:38:10.039
depth. Yes, in depth,
we'll seeze them next week, maybe five

547
00:38:10.079 --> 00:38:15.639
minutes on each movie next week.
And in lieu of the those those full

548
00:38:15.119 --> 00:38:19.079
review releases, well for sure have
a dump at the beginning next week.

549
00:38:19.119 --> 00:38:22.360
We've already got a chock full dump
ready to rock. That'll be it's filled

550
00:38:22.360 --> 00:38:29.079
with corn peanuts. And then probably
a week after that, the next Monday

551
00:38:29.159 --> 00:38:35.000
or Tuesday, I'll either have a
secret invasion prep for episode six. If

552
00:38:35.000 --> 00:38:38.239
there's a good cliffhanger on five,
I'll talk with someone about that, or

553
00:38:38.280 --> 00:38:42.960
I'll have another dump ready to rock. So that's the play and then after

554
00:38:43.000 --> 00:38:47.599
that we will have the next three
episodes no specific order. It'll be Barbie

555
00:38:47.599 --> 00:38:53.519
Oppenheimer Secret Invasion yep. So they'll
some heavy hitters to go. And for

556
00:38:53.559 --> 00:38:58.679
those of you that haven't been watching
Secret Invasion, episode four just came out

557
00:38:58.719 --> 00:39:02.800
that I actually have to get to. This show has been good. I

558
00:39:02.840 --> 00:39:07.039
don't know if it's been very good, but it's been good enough where I've

559
00:39:07.159 --> 00:39:10.079
enjoyed each episode. The acting has
been great. I don't know if the

560
00:39:10.119 --> 00:39:15.000
payoffs gonna be worth it all.
That's that remains to be seen, but

561
00:39:15.239 --> 00:39:20.480
it's at least after either it's doing
this, it's it's making me google stuff,

562
00:39:20.800 --> 00:39:23.480
watch new rock star videos. So
it's been interesting enough for me to

563
00:39:23.480 --> 00:39:28.599
at least do that. But it's
gonna have to pay this off. I

564
00:39:29.119 --> 00:39:32.360
not in spectacular fashion, but I
want there to be meaning going forward from

565
00:39:32.360 --> 00:39:36.679
the show, and I worry it'll
be more of a one and done such.

566
00:39:36.800 --> 00:39:39.400
The show right now is the front
runner for the Sleepy Joe Award for

567
00:39:39.480 --> 00:39:44.039
me. I have fallen asleep twice
while watching it. Wow, but also

568
00:39:44.320 --> 00:39:46.840
I haven't. I'm a sleepy boy. You are sleepy peep. Yeah,

569
00:39:46.880 --> 00:39:50.800
but also I have over the last
couple of weeks not to get too much

570
00:39:50.800 --> 00:39:53.599
into my life. I have I
have said goodbye to the gudio. I

571
00:39:53.599 --> 00:39:58.920
have given the bigger room to my
son, and I have made the move

572
00:39:58.960 --> 00:40:02.519
into the smaller clawset like room that
was his. So a lot of my

573
00:40:02.599 --> 00:40:07.159
free time has been that. You're
gonna need to put on a TikTok montage

574
00:40:07.199 --> 00:40:12.239
to Vitamin C's graduation of all the
old pictures from Gudio past. Oh,

575
00:40:12.320 --> 00:40:15.119
can everyone please send me what we
should call the new Gudio. I was

576
00:40:15.159 --> 00:40:22.960
thinking either Nudio Tudio or Gudio part
Tudio is pretty good. I like Gudio

577
00:40:23.000 --> 00:40:25.639
two point zero. That's pretty good. When you moved there, it was

578
00:40:25.760 --> 00:40:30.599
established as the gudio before that was
Studio one four one two. Studio one

579
00:40:30.800 --> 00:40:35.559
forty two was our first one,
and then I'm sorry, Nicky Diamond's basement

580
00:40:35.639 --> 00:40:37.199
was our first one. That's true. Where you were in a closet,

581
00:40:37.239 --> 00:40:39.880
so now you're just in a bigger
closet. I'm in a bigger closet now.

582
00:40:40.360 --> 00:40:45.239
I was sitting on a footson that
was not particularly clean. You were

583
00:40:45.239 --> 00:40:47.159
in a closet that was not particularly
clean. And then our guests I don't

584
00:40:47.159 --> 00:40:51.119
even remember where the guests sat.
They sat on the other part of the

585
00:40:51.119 --> 00:40:53.679
futon. And what's fun about it
actually is and this is we're not painting

586
00:40:53.679 --> 00:40:57.239
a very good picture. This is
a very very messy basis. Early days,

587
00:40:57.840 --> 00:41:00.599
Mac was on a futon that was
facing a all over here who was

588
00:41:00.639 --> 00:41:05.480
in a closet that had no eye
contact with Mac none. I was just

589
00:41:05.559 --> 00:41:08.360
staring at another wall. And then
Diamonds was so high that like four times

590
00:41:08.360 --> 00:41:12.679
you forgot to press record on our
episodes. But having said that, in

591
00:41:12.719 --> 00:41:15.719
the eight hundred ish episodes that we've
done since, I have forgot to hit

592
00:41:15.760 --> 00:41:21.639
record twice. So I'm not gonna
percentage though, is the percentage is not

593
00:41:21.760 --> 00:41:24.559
as bad. But it has happened. It has happened also because you were

594
00:41:24.599 --> 00:41:28.880
so high. I'm always high though, That's why I'm always falling asleep.

595
00:41:29.079 --> 00:41:32.159
You're you're like that girl Tall Bachman
was saying about I always say to my

596
00:41:32.239 --> 00:41:35.480
wife, and you know, she's
always like, stop saying this, But

597
00:41:35.599 --> 00:41:39.440

four to twenty somewhere. You're always saying

598

Don't ask for too many, or
I'm not going to send you any.

615
00:42:39.559 --> 00:42:43.719
I have already sent out the first
order of pens. For those of

616
00:42:43.719 --> 00:42:45.960
you who have told me where you
are. The person at the front desk

617
00:42:46.000 --> 00:42:49.519
when I was sending them out,
I was like, I was slatting the

618
00:42:49.519 --> 00:42:52.000
pens in the bags, and then
one person said, can I get a

619
00:42:52.000 --> 00:42:53.639
pen and a half? So while
I was slatting the pens, I took

620
00:42:53.639 --> 00:42:55.559
a pen and I broke it in
half and I put in the bag and

621
00:42:55.559 --> 00:42:59.599
they're like, what are you doing? Don't tell me the INC went in

622
00:42:59.639 --> 00:43:01.760
there broken though, No, So
what I did. I snapped the plastic

623
00:43:01.800 --> 00:43:06.000
on the outside. I gave them
half the plastic and then I did give

624
00:43:06.039 --> 00:43:08.079
him the ink, the full inc. Okay, but they didn't get the

625
00:43:08.119 --> 00:43:13.679
top half, the clickie part.
No, No, they got the clickie

626
00:43:13.719 --> 00:43:15.760
part. But the clickie part is
pointless without the top half, because then

627
00:43:15.760 --> 00:43:19.760
you're just pushing it into nothing.
We have different top halfs of a pen.

628
00:43:19.880 --> 00:43:22.519
Then the top half to me is
the point. But yeah, the

629
00:43:22.559 --> 00:43:24.840
top half is the point. I
gave him the bottom half with the logo

630
00:43:24.840 --> 00:43:29.920
half click part. No, the
bottom half is the clickie but it also

631
00:43:29.960 --> 00:43:34.519
has the logo. I think you
misspoke, then that's I think you misheard.

632
00:43:35.280 --> 00:43:37.719
Yeah, that's definitely what it was, all right, Also tepublic dot

633
00:43:37.760 --> 00:43:45.280
com, so we explained our huge, very confusing schedule that's coming up for

634
00:43:45.320 --> 00:43:47.760
the next couple of weeks. Now
everyone's writing it down. Just guys,

635
00:43:47.880 --> 00:43:52.559
check Apple podcast and all the other
things it's gonna pop up. Yeah,

636
00:43:52.719 --> 00:43:57.280
fine, so Tuesdays or Goose Days, I abuse kangaroos. Now it's time

637
00:43:57.360 --> 00:44:06.840
for girls jumping on trampolines. Please
flip the cassette over to side B to

638
00:44:06.920 --> 00:44:09.079
continue the adventure before we stop.
I do want to take credit. You

639
00:44:09.079 --> 00:44:14.639
know that yet dunkin Donuts commercial right
now where they're swirling the ice coffee around

640
00:44:14.679 --> 00:44:16.679
and they're making the ice coffee noise. I have not seen it. Okay,

641
00:44:16.679 --> 00:44:19.639
so that is a commercial right now, and they're like, this is

642
00:44:19.639 --> 00:44:24.440
the sound of summer right. No, No, I was just gonna say

643
00:44:24.559 --> 00:44:29.119
you coined it. It is actually
in that little Goodbye there. It is

644
00:44:29.199 --> 00:44:34.320
you swirling your coffee around just now. Yeah, you have terrible ears.

645
00:44:34.719 --> 00:44:37.400
Oh you put it in the in
the sounder. I didn't do it on

646
00:44:37.440 --> 00:44:45.360
purpose. I did it by accident. Uh yeah, usually the morning records.

647
00:44:45.360 --> 00:44:46.880
I have a coffee, but it's
so warm these days that there's no

648
00:44:46.960 --> 00:44:51.400
ice left. Usually Macnus also says, no ice. I want my ice

649
00:44:51.400 --> 00:44:55.039
coffee warm. Sometimes I get it
with half ice because they put too much.

650
00:44:55.400 --> 00:44:58.199
Well, all right, so I
just wanted to, you know,

651
00:44:58.280 --> 00:45:00.119
before you guys left, tell you
that fine
