Sci-Fi Edge of Tomorrow - Part 1

I particularly loved the ending of this movie with how Cruise looks at Blunt and then the credits song just starts
 
This movie had aged like fine wine. Sure makes me miss Bill Paxton.
 
If the mimics have the same power to reset time and the day...how can they even lose?

Also, why would Brigham assign Cage, a public affairs officer with no combat experience, into a war on the frontlines with real experienced soldiers? That seems massively stupid. In the book and comic, Keiji was already a recruit for the SDF and they didn't have this contrived and convoluted setup to put him on the battlefield.
 
I don't get why you would make a sequel to this. The first movie didn't really do a great job of explaining its ending. Quit while you are ahead. Not everything needs a sequel.

Is the first movie an entertaining action film? Yes it is. But so is Oblivion. What do you even do with a sequel? The movie came out 10 years ago. It didn't even make that much money.
 
The first movie is awesome so if the same creative team came back I would be more than down for a sequel.
 
They've been discussing this movie for over a decade now.
 
 
How do you make a sequel work and actually make sense? The ending for the first movie doesn't make any sense as it is.
 
How the **** has Emily Blunt not been a superhero yet! :fst:

I like ScarJo as Natasha and all, but I still wonder what it would have been like if Blunt had played her as was originally intended. Of course the monkey's paw of that means that we probably wouldn't have seen her in Edge of Tomorrow and a few other movies along the way because she'd be be busy fulfilling her MCU contract.

She was also my first choice for Carol Danvers and Sue Storm but at this point if she does any superhero movie I think it might just be a one-and-done thing.
 
I don't think they can crack it because the ending of the original never made any sense.

Except it does make sense. Not that it matters. Some of the greatest films of all time, don't "make sense". Didn't stop them from being awesome.

This is one of the most famous and beloved scenes in cinema. It literally doesn't "make sense". How often you hear people complain about it ruining the film?

If it's anything like the first one, I'm in. Not sure what a sequel would be about, though.
