Echoing @Boldfinger's sentiments. Hope you have a great birthday, @Risico007
Wait there's going to be Macgyver movie? What's the rumour?
While 'Rogue Nation' wasn't as great as 'Ghost Protocol' was, I still really enjoyed it and am looking forward to owning that glorious steelbook and giving it several rewatches. McQuarrie is a wonderful director (really enjoyed 'Jack Reacher,' as well), so I'm positive about his return.
thanks everyone for birthday wishes...
not to get TOO off topic but to answer Dragonsky's questions.
Back in October we had heard much like numerous other television show pitches a Revamped Macgyver focusing on the Secret Agent working for a clandestine organization (Original source was Varaity but here is EW'as which is how I first found out about it http://www.ew.com/article/2015/10/02/macgyver-reboot-cbs) was potentially going to happen produced by James Wan (with the pilot being directed by him as well) as well as original show Producer Henry winkler and written by Scott Grimmel (who wrote for NCIS New Orleans)
the rumor is Pierson Fode might be the new macgyver (http://www.realtytoday.com/articles/54268/20151121/the-bold-and-the-beautiful-cast-spoilers-pierson-fode-leaving-bb-to-join-macgyver-reboot.htm) while I like rumors I don't like who is being rumored especially considering after the Player being cancled I have found the perfect Macgyver Phillip Winchester ( perhaps for a belated birthday present one of the brilliant fan artists here like Jwestbrook will do a fan poster of the New macgyver Tv show with Phillip Winchester as Macgyver.)
I did try to create a few Macgyver thread here that seemed to vanish in the wind but Yeah for me in terms of Spy Franchises Macgyver Should be up there with bond bourne and Hunt who knows maybe next fall it will be.
Here are some random thoughts in no particular order. I will stick spoiler tags around them just in case. Well, I hadn't seen the movie until today.
The "behind the scenes at the opera" stuff did give me a lot of Quantum of Solace deja vu. But I really enjoy liked how they threaded the Nessun Dorma music into the movie to become a sort of Ilsa theme. Which makes me like the music in this a lot more than the dire music in Spectre. And I did like Rebecca Ferguson as Ilsa.
Was the "charity auction" location the same location from Spectre, where Bond infiltrated the Spectre "board room" meeting?
The scene in the "water cooled computer room" was a bit bonkers but stil was suitably tense.
Car/bike chase was very well done and I liked how they didn't use music for the first part of it. Not too much crappy CGI, except for the car flip bit.
Interesting that they had such a London based climax. Set at night. That was another reminder of Spectre for me.
And I did like the background of the Syndicate. It reminded me of "Division" in Nikita among other things, but there was something about the way it was done, it was actually very believable.
I totally agree. "Mission: Impossible 5 - Rogue Nation" is the most serious M:I-film. Slightly darker too.
By the way, I got a huge "Skyfall"-vibe when I watched the film. This article summarizes it:

And it´s about time that the 17th arrives and I can get the br.
My remote will be perfectly intact, except for the pause button being mashed in and no longer in working use. ;)
Hey, the writers kicked poor Lea out the window (literally) in GP, so as far as I'm concerned, they didn't want her and EON were within their rights to scoop her up. ;)
I actually find it funny how she was largely mute in that movie, a cold killer going after the heroes, and in SP she's the hero type being chased after by Hinx, who is that film's cold and mute killer. Whatta world.
@DaltonCraig007, I probably would do that, if only I knew which one them was the pause button. Too many years of watching Eva Green have scratched the graphics off the fast-forward, rewind, pause and play buttons, while also making the analog sticks of my PS3 and PS4 controllers very wonky from constant use whenever I use them as remotes. It's a tough life, but one I walk willingly into as I continue to build up a film collection of every movie Ms. Green has shown so much as a bare shoulder in. :D

While the words "determined", "leaner", and "less heavily reliant on plot" are the sweetest music to my ears, I´m not sure how serious I´m supposed to take the above statement as a whole. I find it really hard to believe that the motorcycle sequence was originally supposed to be so much bigger and longer. I find it pretty massive as it is. Spectacular, and fantastic, but it seems totally unbelievable that there were supposed to have been plans for a "much bigger" chase. Sounds like a bit of bs to me. What does "less heavily reliant on plot" mean, if not spectacular action or iconic imagery?
I can see them playing the 'let's leave this life behind' angle that Ilsa pitched to Hunt in Rogue Nation, only this time she means it.
Now I want to see the original motorcycle scene..
