Pic from last months Empire, I think






I've always liked it and the motorbike chase sequence at the end is still one of my favourite action sequences ever.
Nice Pic.
As for the motorbike chase, I have always loved it, too.
Signature John Woo.
 
New international Mission: Impossible – Fallout poster has Ethan Hunt in action

The peak that you see Ethan attempting to climb is a steep cliff called Priekestolen In Norway.
Also known as Preacher's Rock or Pulpit Rock.
 
even tho I do not care for imagine dragons I DO like that song that is used in the trailer but only that version, I heard the song by itself and without the MI theme bits in there I do not care for it as much.

The version of Friction that I heard at the Imagine Dragons website had The M.I. bits in them.
Maybe the song was made for the film.
 
the only song of theirs I like was the Warrior song that was used in one of the last WW trailers I know it was an older song before that but I never heard of it till the WW trailer
 
Turns Out that the WW song is called Rise of the Warrior.
There is a song called Warrior by Demi Lovato, though.
 
Oh can anyone repost the trailer with the Imagine Dragons music in it?
 
Does everybody have a wishlist for this film?
Stunts?
Plot points?
What happens to the characters?
 
Okay, I am going to predict that the next railer for this film will drop on the week of May 18.
That Friday, Paramount will be premiering Book Club, their new comedy .

It's a little over two months before Fallout.
Perfect timing.

Lorne Balfe has confirmed that he's scoring Fallout.

Personally, this news is a major disappointment. Joe Kraemer's score for Rogue Nation is one of my favorite action scores of the last decade, so for him to be replaced by a journeyman like Balfe is incredibly underwhelming. I used to be a big fan of Balfe's a few years ago (his work on Beyond: Two Souls and Blackwood was excellent), but he's been in a significant slump lately, as it appears he's chosen to go for quantity rather than quality. I mean honestly, the amount of scores he's able to do every year is ridiculous.

It doesn't help that his blockbuster scores (Terminator Genisys, Geostorm, Pacific Rim Uprising) themselves have been horribly generic. I'm sure Balfe will do a solid job and provide McQuarrie with what he wants, but I doubt it'll be half as interesting as what Kraemer came up with. If the filmmakers were deadset on getting someone trendy they should've at least gone for Brian Tyler. Again, not one of my favorite composers but I would've preferred something in the vein of The Mummy or Bangkok Dangerous to the droning synth that Balfe will most probably provide.

This is just another reason for me to skip this movie. I didn't care for Rogue Nation (or any of the Bad Robot M:I films) and the trailer left me cold. Unless this gets a higher critic score than the last one I'll probably skip it.
 
The last one had an RT score of 93%. This one could very well be higher, but if you hated that one despite the fact that it was universally praised, I highly doubt you’re going to care for this one if it’s received slightly better by critics.

What a step down from Elfman, Zimmer, Giacchino, and Kraemer. If the studio wanted a protege of Zimmer's they should've hired Daniel Pemberton or Benjamin Wallfisch. Both are more skillful than Balfe. Sure he collaborated with Zimmer on both of Guy Ritchie's Sherlock Holmes movies and Megamind, but other than that he hasn't really impressed me. Now I'm least excited about the score, but am still looking forward to the movie regardless.

Rogue Nation has a metacritic score of 75. With Fallout I'll wait for the reviews and see what the overall feel for the film is before deciding, what areas it excels and fails in. I'll also probably give the score a listen and see if I'm up to hearing it for two hours in the theater.

can anyone recommend a score from Lorne Balfe that they liked?

Like I said in my post I really enjoyed his work on Beyond: Two Souls and Blackwood; The Last Man on the Moon, Pantani and Genius are also pretty good (though the latter is pretty derivative).

I listened to the Last Man On The Moon score, sounded pretty good.
 
At this point what can they really do with the Mission Impossible franchise? It just seems like they have exhausted this franchise out and the best thing they can do at this point anyway would be to either end the franchise as a whole or reboot it altogether not a hard reboot more like a soft reboot similar to what they did with the Bond franchise

As long as they make the action look spectacular and Tom does the big stuff himself, audiences will return.
I think that a seventh film is likely.
An eighth film is possible or they could use that film to reboot it.
We shall see.
For all we know, at the end of this movie, Ethan either officially retires or fakes his death so that he can be with his wife.
Anythings possible.
 
If Ethan retires you can center the franchise around a new lead a new IMF agent and center it around him or her...I mean what else is there left for Ethan at this point? I mean he is already married and for all we know Julia could be pregnant and if she is then you would think Ethan would want to settle down once and for all
