    Make the MI series just like James Bond - have it go on indefinitely
     
  2. Mission impossible has had a stronger run than bond over the last four movies for each

    the most recent is better but that’s foolish
     
  4. Casino is great, Skyfall is good, quantum is bad, spectre is bad

    Fallout is great, all the others are good to great

    fallout is the best of the eight but every bond movie of the four outside of spectre is better than the next best MI movie

    As much as I love Casino Royale and Skyfall, I’d probably rather watch M:I 4-6 over either of them most days.

    Ethan Hunt is a spy

    he started as a spy. it’s like how dominic torretto started off as a drag race driver. that’s not what those movies are anymore. he hasn’t been a spy for some time.

    Disagree. He exclusively does spy things. The man is a spy

    If wearing a mask of somebody else’s face to infiltrate a government building to steal secrets isn’t spying, then I don’t know what is.

    bond is too busy trying to fuck. That dudes on vacation while Ethan is doing the real work

    the first movie barely has any action. the extent of what he does is the wire scene trying not to trip off any alarms. he literally hangs off of helicopters and scales buildings now. these are action movies. he’s an action hero. it’s not really the same thing.

    He also does spy things like being sneaky and using fancy technology and creating fake personas/impersonating people and such. The Craig Bond movies have tons of action too, even though they’re obviously nowhere near as impressive (few movies are). They aren’t mutually exclusive

    sure. it’s not, like, comparing tinker tailor soldier spy to whatever new guy ritchie movie comes out. i realize it’s splitting hairs a bit. but the MI movies have moved quite a bit from where they started to focusing much much more on huge set pieces. even the daniel craig set pieces are pretty restrained to car chases, comparatively, though it looks like no time to die might change that.
