    How do Disney executives not see how terrible their plan is when you are releasing 5+ movies a year that require you to break 500M box office on each just to stay afloat, and they would likely have to break a billion to actually be considered a successful production. When your whole business model requires you to get close to record breaking box offices multiple times per year, there’s a major flaw, especially now with how the economy is, it’s not realistic to bank on billion dollar box office numbers for every movie you make

      @@JeThoreau_ that’s true, I’m not someone that’s read a lot of comics, but just looking at the catalog there’s some really great stuff they could pull from. I think there’s definitely something that was lost with their insane success, the marvel we know today was born from a company that was at the edge of bankruptcy for the second time and had a small group of passionate people willing to risk it all to make something special. That something was Ironman and they didn’t let that success go to waste. Unfortunately that success also slowly warped the company and selling to Disney didn’t help in the long run. Now it’s run by people who don’t care and don’t have that experience of fighting for something they actually care about, to the higher ups it’s just a job that pays a lot, and that unfortunately makes a hostile environment for anyone that actually allow themselves feel something for what Disney just sees as another product to milk dry and discard.

    One thing that could have made a slight difference for the better - that opening sequence on board the submarine, shouldn't have shown that the entity is situated on board the sub. Should have been shown the commanders using keys but not clearly showing they are the two parts that everyone is looking for in the movie - The ship is blown up, sinks to the bottom, crew floats to the top, don't show the crew's keys in close up.
    Make it appear that the entity blew up the sub to stir potential war between different nations, then at the end, when Pom reveals to him that the entity is on board the sub, Ethan puts 2 and 2 together and realises that is why it happened - we have that end sequence where the camera goes to the sub and shows it on the bopttom, and we see the entity, and we see the lock that fits the key.
    Would have made for a much better reveal and cliffhanger to setup the point of part 2.

    Han's original line gets misquoted as being "I love you too" but the script was actually "Just remember that, ’cause I’ll be back."

    Mission Possible: Good Movie Makes Money

  • @fakecubed
    @fakecubed Před 10 měsíci +4

    I wonder how actresses feel working on these films where the script just won't let them actually act, because their character never gets scared, never feels any sort of relief at overcoming terrible odds, never goes through any journey at all emotionally and just instantly wins at everything because it's so easy for her. Did they become actresses because they wanted a paycheck and fame, or did they become actresses because they actually want to act? Somebody should start asking them that in interviews, and on the red carpet. If they ever stop striking, that is.

    • @sixcrowsilver
      @sixcrowsilver Před 10 měsíci +5

      Thing is, once upon a time you'd be 100% correct. Nowadays so many actresses are feminist activists, and the delusional image of them being perfect is more important than reality and actual acting.
      Of course it's not entirely their fault. Media, social media, and society in general puts them on a pedestal no matter how unimaginative or unimpressive their work is. So they think they're doing something special even when they obviously aren't.
      I will say, Emily Blunt did an interview in November where she practically parroted everything you said. Look up her name and 'strong female lead' and you should be able to find it. Was great to read.

    Regarding the wayward (not so favorable) MI 7 reviews: one thing you guys (who are all fantastic) are forgetting is that this is Part 1 of 2 and no Mission Impossible movie is without its “expectations will not be met while hopes will” theme.
    There’s no way these guys aren’t taking into account the AI’s ever-reaching-all-knowingness. Shouldn’t we assume Cruise blasting through that train window in a both ridiculous and highly comedic way is not just luck (of course it is), but also an opportunity to “outsmart”the omniscient AI?

Indy tried to protest so she aimed a machine gun at him, pointed to her eyes and said "look at me, look at me, I'm Indiana now" and then she put the dial in the hat and became the Retcon Girl, so she went to collect the Shankara Stone, The Arc of The Covenant, and The Holy Grail, but with all that power and awesomeness she became Miss Multiverse, and went to turn Lara Croft into a strong character while taking from her the Triangle of Light, El Gato from that movie with Stifler and The Rock, the mummies of Imhotep and the Dragon Emperor, and onto discover the cradle of life, and even King Solomon's Mines, and with the machine gun to embarrass every WW2 and WW1 and Napoleonic war male protagonist by taking down all the nazis in those movies before them...

    I wrote this on one of the clips from this episode, but there is evidence of the prequels taking place during the Clone Wars and being about Obi-Wan and Anakin going back to the 70s. Kurtz was probably only remembering part of the ideas Lucas had, which were constantly evolving. There is a list on yellow legal paper that comes from before TESB came out where the original movie is listed as "Episode 6" with Episode 1 being listed as a "Prelude" (possibly the "origin of the Jedi" idea Kurtz recalled), Episodes 2-4 being the "Clone Wars Trilogy," and Episode 5 being a "Prologue/Epilogue" before the original film. And there are plenty of interviews from back in the day where they talked about 1-3 being the story of Anakin and Obi-Wan. So these ideas of what the prequels were "really about originally" and that it was Lucas being stubborn and changing the "original idea" doesn't hold water.
    This explains why Lucas shifted from saying there were plans for possibly "12 films" to saying there were "9 films;" he just eliminated the loose idea of prologue/epilogue type films being necessary. And then he nixed the original Sequel trilogy ideas (mainly Luke finding and training a lost sister in a remote part of the galaxy and then teaming up to defeat the Emperor) while planning "Return of the Jedi" and just crammed them into the last film (this is a fact by the way) because he became exhausted with making Star Wars films, especially after his divorce.

    2:28:30 - 1995's "First Knight" with Sean Connery as King Arthur remains the only movie I ever walked out on! When Connery walks in on Guinevere and Lancelot, the entire audience in my theater just cracked up, laughing out loud, and you could tell, they hadn't intended the scene to be hilarious.
    What got me to walk was the interminable fight scene at the end where they repeatedly switched between showing the entire field of battle to showing Arthur or Mordred, sword raised toward his opponent, to a close-up of one of the armies charging toward the other, then back again, over and over and over and over, to the point where Dragonball Z fans were screaming, "GET ON WITH IT!!"

    In regards ot the scale of the threat increasing in the mission impossible series (as well as movies in general), I feel you can honestly mitigate that as long as the focus of the protagonist(s) stays very small scale and relatable. The "He's not there to save the world, just one person" aspect. And to do that, saving hte world is somewhat required but thats not the primary goal, thats just a added bonus.
    In that context, you can have big threats exist, but the story seems more personal and, as a consequence, relatable for audience members.
