A third episode like this? Yes please!
Agreed
Yes, please!
Maybe of this series too, en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mission:_Impossible_(1988_TV_series)
We make fun of the people who criticize minutia in the comments, but it's fun to watch a video criticizing the minutia in a TV show.
Your mission if you choose to accept it is to make a third episode 🔥
The cheesy skits are great, I wish we would get more of your "bad acting" in your videos.
Needs more muppets :)
@@squidcaps4308 Yes. Always leave the fans wanting more quality material, rather than giving them all the mediocre "footage" in the world.
I need a Muppet disguised as Martin Landau.
Or as TV Tropes calls it, "bad 'bad acting.'" ;-)
Hey where's his IMDb page XD This much acting deserves a mention there
It's not the longest time between sequels, but part 3 is finally with us 😂
That's a couple of month indeed. And for me just a couple of minutes as I didn't see the others :p
@@tsht I love it when a plan comes together 😄
Ha! "Do you like gladiator movies?" as the spy question was a brilliant choice. Peter Graves played that character so well in Airplane!
I think a good reply would be: "I'm gladiator too".
I would offer this and Part 1 up for an Academy Award for "Best Dramatic Work in a Documentary"!!!
Brilliant! That intro is the best thing currently on the Internet! Can't wait for MI:3 ;)
The acting is amazing. Loved the "bike guy" performance.
I'm quite sure it'll end off in one of those Techmoan vs 8-bit Guy CZcams Poops.
Awesome "movies about gladiators" reference
Ep.3 maybe with a guest actor ~~~
LMAO! Brilliant, my first thought exactly!
"This tape will self destruct if not stored correctly"
You’re the only CZcamsr that can make videos this long on tape recorders and still keep it interesting.
I bet Techmoan Could make something dull as your common toaster interesting
@@rricci well i mean technology connections did that and it was a huge hit

Pt. 3 please, very interesting. I never knew one tape recorder/player could have such a Hollywood background 😎
Regrettable acting lives on, despite the demise of The Ben Heck Show.
Speaking of Ben Heck - in case you didn't know he has his own channel where he puts up videos of projects he works on. No regrettable acting though.
The channel name is "Ben Heck Hacks". I discovered it by accident.
Where are my dragons?
"I want to live in a world with star wars again" fast forward to today and after seeing solo "I wanna live in a world with less star wars again"
I love the intro. "I see the acting classes aren't going well..." ooh self burn!
Owned a reel to reel many years before I owned a cassette recorder. The major advantage of the reel to reel is that I never lost a valuable recording to the machine “eating” it. Enjoyed the video. Many thanks!
I would echo what is being said, Part 3 is very much looked forward to
I vote "part three" sir. Take as much time as you need to make it cause I dig the hell outta these last two.
I hope you enjoyed Part 3.
@@JamesTobiasStewart I honestly forgot about this comment. I very much enjoyed Mat making a third Mission Impossible tape video.
FYI: Leonardo DiCaprio uses one of the Craig recorders several times in "Once Upon A Time In Hollywood"
Found this video while trying to figure out where I'd seen that triangular joystick.
Aye, we need a part 3, these are so very interesting.
Please do a part 3, I find these honestly fascinating. Please.
'Do you like gladiator movies?' Spoken by Peter Graves in "Airplane!".
I came here to see if someone had said this, and I'm not disappointed.
I'm reflecting on my age now. I received this model tape recorder on Christmas ~1966-67. That started my obsession of consumer electronic gadgets and HI-Fi. i remember how everyone in the neighborhood was so impressed with the sound quality and simple operation. i was surprised to see it on one of my favorite TV shows. Great memories!
0:16 - "Have you ever been in a Turkish prison?" - "Have you ever seen a grown man naked?" - "Did you ever hang around the gymnasium?" lol
Yeah, let’s have a part 3!
Yes, we want a part 3! :-)
7:37 “The sale of the package without this sticker is forbidden”, according to Google Translate.
When I was a kid in the 70s I had more fun with my Craig 212 than anything else. Doing sound effects, changing the record & playback speeds, running the tape backwards. I even got another one and rigged it so the tape ran from one player to the other so I could goofy effects.
I did some of the same things with mine. 🤓
"Joey, have you ever seen a grown man naked?"
"You'll find what you want in the tank"
The tank is in a Turkish prison!
Love the Airplane! reference :)
You eve seen a grown man naked?
Unsurprisingly Matt decided not to use "Ever seen a grown man naked?" :)
Neil Oakley somethings are best left in the past!
@@rumbalala Or... "Have you ever been to a Turkish bath?"😁
Shirley not?
I'm watching all the old MI episodes and noticed an interesting recording device I used to have. It's seen in Season 1 episode 18. It's a Soundscriber, a dictating machine that records on small acetate disks at 33 rpm. These can be played on an ordinary phonograph. I bought mine years ago at a used electronics store, and was actually able to buy more blank disks at an office supply store. My brother was able to record on disks he cut from acetate sheets. Might be a fun device to show on your channel if you can find one.
One year on, I am still hoping for a part three.
2 years now :/
3 years now
5 years on, PART THREE HAS ARRIVED!
Wow, your analysis of the the word footage really blew my mind. And the Tim and Eric clip made me laugh out loud.
I'm sure you mean the footage of Tim and Eric
@@DirtyHairy1 yes, the footage. You'd have to clip it out though, with a pair of scissors.
Most Utubers still refer to shooting raw "footage" as "filming" or maybe "taping", though photographic film or videotape (magnetic film) are no longer involved. Long ago, I started to try to gently point that out, but quickly figured out that was a useless crusade.
I would love to see a part 3.
Thank you for the great vids.
When I was a kid, my friend Bill had one of those Craig recorders. His older brother gave it to him after upgrading to cassette. There's definitely extra fun factor with reel to reel. We had so much fun taping silly nonsense on that thing. We thought we were Cheech & Chong.
It was my favourite Christmas present ever. I opened it up and got it working again a few weeks ago. We made scary radio plays with it, taped my Dad snoring, the usual stuff...
Admittedly, I saw something like "MI tape recorders", thought it was episode one, which I'd already avidly watched. Assuming yt was erroneously dropping it back into my feed, I swiped it away... THE HORROR.
Part 3 please!
THE FOOTAGE EXPRESSION EXPLAINED... I'M SHOOK
I used to love going to car boot sales and secondhand shops in the late 80s early 90s and buying these little Japanese reel to reel recorders as a kid for £1 or 50p. So many different makes and types used to turn up, but most were all rim drive. What a difference a capstan makes! Glad im not the only one who was also fascinated by these little recorders..
@@edgeeffectlol my best buy was a Grundig TK5 for 20p!
Funny you should say that... as around that time, I bought my first "serious" open-reel machine: An Ampex 2176. Got it for less than $20 at a resale shop, and found it needed belts. When I took it to reputable repair shop, they quoted a $200+ repair estimate! Sadly, books and parts were impossible for me to come by, so it sat for better than 20-years... until I found another--in working condition--on eBay for a reasonable price.
The footage explanation alone deserves a like.
It looks to me like this machine was also used in 'Once upon a time in Hollywood', when Rick Dalton is rehearsing his lines.
"youre rick fucking dalton, and don't you forget that" haha
You definitely need to do a part 3! Even if not the majority likes this, I'm definitely one of the few that do.
I only missed the muppets at the end commenting on your dramatic acting! ;)
"Do you like gladiator movies" priceless!
Part three! Part three! Part three!
Tremendous effort you're putting into these videos. Very enjoyable to watch. Thanks!!
In the vein of footage, It’s rumored that the phrase “the whole nine yards” came from certain machine gun belts in the First World War being about nine yards long.
Nine yard long belt? This doesn't sound probable if we're talking about WW1 machine guns. Nice theory though.
A bit of a goof! The Norita camera seen @21:01 is a mediumformat camera, not a 35mm camera so the focal lengths they're talking about doesn't make sense. Also, the camera system in question doesn't have a 85mm lens (the normal lens is a 80mm) and a portrait lens would be something more like 150-180mm.
The nonsensical focal lengths just help ensure the code words aren't accidentally triggered by a random camera buff passerby :)
yep he used a standart Noritar 80/2.
That's interesting, I thought 135mm sounded like a bit of a long lens for portraits. I used a 135 last night to shoot the lunar eclipse.
I wonder who on the production just said to buy the cheapest camera that looks serious.
It was alll part of the code ^^
More of these intro´s please, these are just golden!
from IMDB: When the reel-to-reel tape recorder was playing the mission's instructions, it was actually in a "rewind" mode rather than a "play" mode. This was done because the tape moved too slowly to be believed when it was "playing"
I watched the first one quite recently, liked it, and am happy that a Part 2's been made. 👍
fun video to watch, looking forward for part 3
If dankpods has taught me anything, old mate Craig “makes” good stuff
its the name of an old mate, an old mate you can take with you.
The amount of research and work you put into your episodes is amazing!
This series is great! Especially because it gives some insight into the usage of props.
Like seeing them drilling more and more holes for the smoke effect etc. :)
would love to see part 3
Moderately unpopular youtube videos are often the most interesting. Many of us watching truly appreciate your dedication to the niche!
I saw that Craig in Tarantino's new film and got really excited that I knew what it was. After the movie I told my friends it was the same tape recorder used in Mission Impossible and they of course couldn't care less.
Another successful mission from Techmoan
I really admire the amount of work you put in your videos. But seeing the end result - it obviously pays of.
Can't wait to see Part 3! Love all the trivia. You're doing a great job Mat.
That opening is Amazing! Great job
Definitely want a part 3! Was wondering when a part 2 would come along, and here it is! Love the Mission Impossible skit too
you get thumbs up for the opening scene! :)
Yes, please do an episode 3! I love these deep dives into the technology behind these memorable TV props!
Very enjoyable. I think that these will be cornerstones of your channel. Vote for Part 3.
Would love another episode of this
Love your acting skills 😁
But all in all great video
I loved that show!!!!! WOW you have done a TON of work researching all the old MI shows and the different tape recorders that were used, or more like how only a couple were used and just "rebranded" to look different. Alot of creativity went into the shows as I remember, and CGI wasn't around. That is what makes them so good1
Thanks for all your work!
Brilliant! Really enjoying these episodes. Looking forward to the next one if and when it comes.
Do a part 3.
Please and thank you
Great video, I'm looking forward to a part 3.
Yes! Part 3 please. Love the research and backstory. thank you for all your efforts. Just wonderful!!
Really enjoying these. I just rewatched all seasons of Mission: Impossible so this is a great followup study. Thanks!
I love some early morning Techmoan
Part 3! Part 3! Part 3!
Beautiful! 10/10! Totally looking forward part 3!
This tape player was featured in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, and thanks to this video, I recognised it.
Thanks, Mat
Here’s my vote for part 3, more bad acting, and more puppets! Oh, and more videos of any kind of RTR decks!
I'd like to see a part three. Excellent work on both videos.
I really like these episodes, some of the best work you have done.
I cannot in see why this should not be liked.
Lots of great information, like the footage.. And the acting as part of the video, love it!
So yes please a episode 3 and continue the well researched and well produced work.
Yes, Mat! More, please!
These videos are great!
I love these episodes. We need more! Great work.
yes please do a part 3. i'm really enjoying the info. as always epic videos! thanks for making them.
Cool series, keep up the good work :)
Fantastic intro!
Fantastic video ,mate.. Love your work.
Matt. Definitely interested in a part III. And thanks for all the effort. All that intercutting from various episodes is pretty time consuming. But your channel is definitely the best out there, bar none. Always witty. Always fascinating. Cheers Matt.
I WANT PART 3! I don't care how many months, years, even decades it will take. I would wait a LIFETIME! 🍄
Haha loving the humour! Thumbs up, always :D
Yes please produce a part 3. Love your work!! Always look forward to your videos.
Wow, this was one of the best videos I have seen! I am very impressed in your ability to spot all the continuity issues.
Your old mate C R A I G
-Dankpods
Epizode 3 please!
Love it! I've been looking forward to Part 2. The Craig 212 was my first tape recorder.
Fantastic Job! This is an excellent collection of goofs and production-history on one of the best TV shows ever. Second only to the acting of Techmoan, which was very entertaining too! I relaly hope for further M:I episodes on this channel!!!
that's about as geeky as it gets. respect.
how about a tape based echo pedal guitar effects?
whelkshuffler Oh yeah, remember those.
They're measured in inchage.
That was fun :)
Thank you for making these videos. I would never read this information on a website, but having you explain it makes it very entertaining.
imagine how far we've come within some 40 or more or less years : backthen all mechanical and now all you need is to tap on the screen of a phone to record things and play em back... nice video and nice memories about my dad thnx a lot techmoan
Part 3 yes
Wow that *is* a nice bike you've got there
Indeed!
The attention to detail regarding the drill holes. Amazing.
Love this one. I really like seeing tape machines in films and on TV, this was a great look at one of the most iconic use of one. Thank you!
