I loved that trailer and the best part about it is that Crusie is really hanging on to a plane
I think EoN and Mendes are very well aware of China's profitability as a market and China's partiality to action, in which it was well documented SF was underwhelmingly received over there. Judging by what SP has in store and from what we've seen, I think SP are going to kill it over in China...time will tell if MI or SP will make more but SP will definitely do so much better than what SF did.
Even with a harness, Tom Cruise is a nutter!
They have to kill it there! No matter how much I'm looking forward to "Rogue Nation", I will be rooting for James Bond 007! I love Tom Cruise doing very well in it, but I want "SPECTRE" to do better. I want next Friday's trailer to stun us more than "Mission: Impossible". Let the battle of the spies begen HERE!! >:) X(
I agree that SP is likely going to do much better in China than SF (it can't do much worse) but I'm not sure if the Chinese public is necessarily all that taken with DC for one (compared to Cruise who is an old hand at giving that market action fun), and secondly I'm not sure if they necessarily in general get as much out of the characterizations and depth that someone like Mendes brings (which will be a key positive differentiator between SP & MI5 in favour of the former).
It could be a language thing, but I think straight action flicks like MI or even the Brozz Bonds are more their cup of tea.
I hope you're right of course because I'd like SP to kick some rear in China.
Boy oh boy did I enjoy that full trailer!
He´s quite an adrenalin junkie, that Tom...
This. And then some. It´s ok if Mendes has fans, but he´s no genius either.
But who cares which film will fare better? Both look like they´re shaping up well, and we the audience have a good chance of getting two treats this year instead of one.
What makes you think Renner will take over? I thought that idea was put to rest after Ghost Protokoll?
It will be difficult to replace Tom Cruise - we have had him around for so long we sort of take him for granted, but he surely is a one of a kind superstar.
You may not be so far off @DaltonCraig007.
Or Aaron Taylor-Johnson
Hollywood is pretty predictable. The minute these guys have one flop, Hollywood moves on.
But off course. Tom Cruise, while portraying Ethan Hunt, is also at the same time the "Cubby Broccoli" of the M:I-franchise. That will stay. I reckon Cruise will do one final movie after RN. But then the question is IF Tom Cruise wants another actor to portray Ethan Hunt (which is the Bond-esque way to do) OR if he simply wants a new team, in which Jeremy Renner slowly becomes the leading IMF-spy.
In any case, "Mission: Impossible" is now indeed the biggest spy franchise after James Bond. I actually wonder if Barbara Broccoli and Tom Cruise have met in the recent past to exchange their experiences.
LOL. Or perhaps George Lazenby's 2nd life as an older IMF-agent.
To be fair, that's the Vienna U-Bahn.
Another Underground scene ;-). Like in "Skyfall". And, a package being delivered to Benji. Like the package Silva got from his henchmen.
Really grasping at straws for similarities here, aren't we? What's next? "Hunt wears a suit in this scene that looks just like one Bond wore during that one scene."
Oowh come onnn ;-). It's only Mission: Impossible.
It is not like the makers of Die Hard did not do a better and more spectacular underground scene in Die Hard 3 and that one actually made sense in the story, so the makers of SF did not pay attention. ;)
For me the only similarity the MI franchise has that they picked up the flag when it comes to sensational stunts and great locations and actually using them to great effect. They seem to do that a lot better in the last two movies (and now 3 movies).

If it as good as MI4 I am really looking forward to the next two installments. Ans lets face it with Bourne and Jason Hunt the EON franchise has finally some quality competition which can only be good for any franchise concerned.
However, I wouldn't say that the Bourne franchise is true competition for James Bond anymore. 'The Bourne Legacy' was a stinker and there hasn't been much concrete word on a sequel as of late.
I liked the Bourne legacy and found the direction daring and am a fan of Renner and of course Mrs Current Bond. And with the possibilty of Damon, Green & Renner involved in the next Bourne movie I am a happy person.
