Ep 243: “Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning part 1”

August 01, 2023

We wreck Tom Cruise’s “Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning part 1” and discuss:

  • Action, consequential chases;
  • and other such stuff and things and stuff.

Sequels are generally done in a rush. They’re done with a sense of urgency. The first time, you spend a long time developing to get it over the line. The second time, you don’t. Your expectations are different, and your motivations are different. – Alex Garland
