Mission Impossible is one of the most popular movie franchises of all time. Especially the later sequels, having put some of the greatest stunts ever put to film. But we would not have these spellbinding movies, if it weren't for Mission Impossible 3. MI:3 completely changed the tone and landscape of what these movies could be, and introduced a new style of action that would carry through the rest of the franchise. Mission Impossible 3 absolutely saved the franchise.

What other movies SAVED their franchise?
Fast Five
I would say Revenge of the Sith. George really needed to come out with a bang, and not Jar Jar (I love Jar Jar though). ROTS saved Prequel trilogy and is, in my opinion, the best Star Wars movie ever. It's success unfortunately made a way for Sequel s..
Not really a movie, but I have the feeling that we wouldn't have a last season of The Clone Wars without Star Wars Rebels, also that Genndy Tartakovsky's Star Wars shorts is what kept interest in the prequels.
Cap America 2: Winter Soldier saved the MCU reputation after disasters like Ironman 3 and Thor 2 (even the Russo brothers were hired for the most important movies in the saga)
So whats going on ABOUT YOUR MOVIE OR YOUR LEAD ACTRESS....
MI:III is criminally underrated.
Thank you
Totally. Till this day it is still my favourite. I also remember the great trailer it had
MI:III is the best
It's my favourite entry
Nah ghost protocol and fallout are wayyy better. This is a good solid 7/10 though. A solid B plus as Stephanie McMahon once said to Daniel Bryan
The Mission Impossible franchise is what the Fast and Furious franchise wishes it was. I hope MI7 keeps the great movies going.
This is blatantly false. It's pretty obvious if you watch Fast 5 on that they know the series is ridiculous. The F&F producers are clearly self-aware. The MI series is taken seriously, insofar as you can with this type of film.
I think they're one in the same. M:I and F&F both focus of teamwork (or Family for that matter) and it's importance and dynamic. It's clichéd, corny and honestly redone to its breaking point, but it's earnest and it works because we understand what it feels to be like in one. It's the beating heart of a great/decent franchise, the same reason why the MCU remains successful, those small character moments to feel for them. Whereas Transformers, Pirates, and those Kaiju movies are faltering in the blockbuster landscape, the MCU, M:I and F&F strive and survive because of one thing: the dynamic of teamwork and humility.
@@AdamRelayson Not sure if Vin Diesel got the memo.
@@AdamRelayson Actually I had high hopes for F&F after part V(which is arguably 2nd best in the whole franchise) but then they just went completely nuts.
@@PlanetXerox Mission Impossible is the best, but Transformers is better than F&F.
I watched the third one as a child and got super scared just by Phillip Seymour Hoffman's performance...
What an incredible actor he was!
PSH was a terrific villain. They ditched the relatable, personable villain with sorta understandable motives and went with a "I'm going to kill your wife in front of you" opening scene. Some people like to be able to relate to the villain in some way but I prefer it when bad guys are just clearly very bad guys and you feel like the hero is legitimately in danger. PSH nailed the dangerous part.
PSH*
@@ballsrichter whooooopsie
Your point stands and I’m being nitpicky 😅
Plus, he really needed a handicap for the final fight. I wouldnt have bought that PSH could make tom cruise struggle, so they gave ethan the bomb thing to even things out and I love the movie a bit more for this
For those wondering what "PSH" stands for (due to the lazy writing style of @paskowitz) = Philip Seymour Hoffman
MI:III is where the producers finally realized that the premise of the original show was about a team, and they brought the team dynamic back into the stories.
Mission Impossible was always about a team. The two first movies are anomalies.
@@peterknutsen3070the first one is also about a team. And the closest thing to the actual TV show. The way they adapt the TV show in the movie is genius.
@@spacemann1425I respectfully disagree. The first one was about a group of mostly strangers running a heist and double-crossing each other. They lacked the trust, camaraderie, and chemistry found in the later movies. The only real team in the first film got murdered before the 15 minute mark.
@@byronheath8925 still a great film tho. The team is still there, the one that Ethan loses in the start, after which he finds Luther, who became like his only constant teammate. Even in the later movies if there's any "team" it's all of like just 3 or 4 people.
@@spacemann1425 Yeah, the first movie was groundbreaking, but works better now as a setup to the larger world they created. At the end of that movie, Ethan was a lone agent. But viewing the series as a whole, I like how he slowly earned his core teammates through trials.
3 is basically (pretty much) the first film of the franchise... 1 was a pretty cool experiment and 2.... YEAH, 2 happened 😳😆
Agree with this
@R that song was literally the only good thing about that movie... the instrumentals... the lyrics are ridiculous and make no sense 😆
...that's why they never used the lyrics in the movie 😆
1 was a good detective story though. 2 was a James Bond wannabe
Honestly......thats not even a lie lmfaoo I love mission impossible 1 but like they don't even acknowledge that film. And 2 is just....a movie that exists
@R And Metallica's I dissappear, which was played everywhere ad nauseaum.
This franchise does not deserve to be as good as it is. They just keep getting better and better. That said, 5 (Rogue Nation) will always be my personal favorite.
Yeah. And interestingly, Bond is quite the opposite. Given the long history and huge fanbase one would assume that the Bond movies are at least unmitigated action movies. But every singe one I've seen so far feels kind of lacking in one way or the other to me. Maybe it comes down to emotion again, as Nolan demonstrated impressively with Tenet, the perfect Bond movie.
@@lonestarr1490 Agreed! I will say Casino Royale and Skyfall were good and definitely worth a rewatch, none of the newer Bond films had me giddy excited in the theater like the Mission Impossible movies
@@lonestarr1490 Tenet is one of the Worst Movies ever made! I'd Take QOS over that turd any day!
Agreed. Absolutely 💯.
Rogue nation and Mission Impossible 3 are the best mission impossible movies.
I've always thought that MI3 was an underrated entry in the series. Whenever I recommend the series to someone who hasn't seen it yet I always recommend that they start with 3 because it really is just a lot cleaner than the first two (though don't get me wrong I still love the first one and i think everyone should go back and watch it later even if they start with 3)
M:I1 is great. But it doesn't hold up because of the tech (the e-mailing + floppy disk). It does introduce the concept of hyper-"believable" masks, 'disavowed', and the self-destructing mission brief.
@@tjslam26 if you base a film holding up on the technology of the era it was made then that’s an awful lot of legendary films that don’t hold up
Yeah I love the series, although I haven't seen a new entry since Rogue Nation which was awesome and yeah I love the first Mission Impossible and despite it dated in some ways it still holds up with it being a Gritty Take on the classic Spy Series from the 60's, the sequel threw out all the Grit for some Hollywood ish Action BS that although enjoyable for how stupid it is, it betrayed the tone that was set up in the first film and part 3 is what got the series back on track with it's return to a more grounded tale with some emotion thrown in for good measure, honestly I do feel like the reason why MI3 failed to sell well in the box office is likely due to what MI2 left in Viewers Mouths.
I think PSH is basically epic in almost any role he played cause he was just that good of an actor (pours some liquor) but I’ll have to rewatch 3 cause I honestly think Ghost Protocol saved the franchise.
@@tjslam26 Those come from the tv show the franchise is adapted from .
There are 3 villains I remember from the series, but I can’t remember any of their names
The OG from the first movie
The blond guy form the third movie
And The guy who reloads his fists
The third guy also magically grows his beard while relaoding his fists.
I always remembered the dude from 2, because of the Australian accent... and cutting off the dudes fingertip with the cigar cutter
Which one is the OG from the first movie? Jon Voight? Jean Reno? Vanessa Redgrave? Anyways, 3 pretty great actors who played their parts well.
Sean Ambrose was a memorable villain tbf.
@@tjslam26 Jon Voight bro. Master tactician, but he had a soft spot for Ethan and he got too arrogant
This is the first movie that made me love Philip Seymour Hoffman as an actor. I never would've thought of him as a villain for a blockbuster before. He was amazing
OMG!!! And I thought I was the crazy one. I've always stood by Mission Impossible 3 as being one of the best Mission Impossible movies until Fallout released and tied it for me. I'm so happy to see someone else saw the brilliance of MI3 as well.
You've earned a loyal subscriber my friend.
Mi3 was my personal favorite for a bit until fallout came out. Mi3 just has this raw, emotional, fresh energy that I love. And of course, tom cruise gets to show just how well he can act for the first time in the franchise, like you said. I don’t know why so many people hate on the film…
MI:3 was really scary for me. I feel so scared for Ethan in almost every scene after he failed to save that agent. Everything after that seemed 'possible' for poor Ethan and that he could really lose anyone any time.
Yeah, that blonde woman dying early on really set the tone.
I disagree on the missions not mattering in MI1, yes the emotional richness of the characters begins in 3 but mission impossible one is such a tightly woven story that everything introduced in its opening minutes pay off in some manner from the second half of the film onwards, moreover what went wrong on the first mission informs the film's entire structure, so yeah De Palma style is blatantly present but it serves the tone of the film rather than it being used for excess
Yeah one is pretty memorable overall. 2 and 3 are mostly forgettable.
First movie is the best one.
Ghost Protocol is a perfect action movie, and my favourite from the series.
I revisited that one recently and couldn't believe how great it is.
Easily the most rewatchable one for me
That's because it manages to be the one with the most sense of a team effort in it. The stakes are interesting with them basically ghost and having to work with minimal equipment to stop a threat like global-nuclear war. Keeps you on your toes with everyone, not just Tom mainly. Still love the later two, as they were real powerhouses in action, but they were mostly Ethan-centric than team centric.
Rogue nation for me
@@motherplayer - Actually, I found it to be the opposite. The team in Ghost Protocol worked too well, that in essence, they were just extensions of Ethan. Each move they make is always under his orders. The backstories for Carter and Brandt only exist to spicen up their characters, but otherwise inconsequential.
On the contrary, in Rogue Nation, the characters were fleshed out more organically; Faust had her own mission and wasn't following Hunt's command and Brandt's allegiance is blurred. This helps preserving the tension between the characters, keeping them on our toes without the need for unnecessary backstories.
My favorite franchise of all time, the third movie definitely gave the franchise a new tone that it stuck with through out movies 4-6.
I think 4-6 is the best action trilogy of all time. Name one that is better…
Rogue Nation for me.
I doubt that. They changed the tone pretty much with every movie. The first one had a complex and intelligent plot, it was a classic spy thriller and a brilliant adaptation but the action was minimal. The 2nd one was your generic save the world bs with Ethan Hunt being James Bond more than Ethan Hunt. The third one is where the stunts, tension and the smart villains come in. Average amount of action. The 4th one ramped up the stunts and action to eleven but sacrificed on the plot(and the intelligence and acting) of the film big time. The 5th and 6th ones are the ones where we finally strike a balance in all these aspects.
@@spacemann1425 I agree with pretty much everything you said, except on the fact that MI5 felt more like the fourth movie instead of Fallout. I think the sixth one was far greater than any other before, being the best in the franchise.
@@anubusxagreed
Growing up with MI3 let's you understand the movies better. It is by far the best movie in the series, just by considering the risks and inspirations they learned from.
Love it. Let us know what you think of the video
@@Nerdstalgic Or course you love it, it’s the same opinion as in the video.
What was the inspirations?
Fact I’ve said before even if someone likes another one more than 3 MI3 imo is the best example of what MI is all about and definitely set the blueprints for the rest of the series
I couldnt agree more!!! It was the film that came out at the right time for me too !!
I love this entire series, yet my wife had seen only the first two films and gave up on it. I reintroduced her to the series using MI3 and she started loving it. We watched each one until Fallout and she thought it got so much better.
All the MI movies has been positively received by the wider audience but mostly, faves has always been MI 4, 5 and 6. My Favorite one is MI 6 (Fallout)
we early peeps. didn't know 3 saved the franchise though after 2, that does make sense.
Early! I love it
MI3 almost killed the franchise, don't listen to to this nerd
@@tynao2029 WHAT?
Great spotlight into a fun entry of the series. I agree that Philip Seymour Hoffman is the most memorable of the villains. RIP to one of the greatest.
MI:2 is a guilty favorite of mine. Action is so over the top, I love it. I feel it’s a misunderstood movie.
Is Mission: Impossible considered a guilty pleasure if the movies are actually really good? (Besides 2)
The later ones tend to be considered genuineily great
2 is great.
@@The3Virus Id say 3 is great honestly
@@weirdofromhalo If you really think about it, 2 is essentially the same movie as 2fast 2furious
This very question drives me crazy: I wouldn't come close to a Fast & Furious movie or a 007 movie with a 10 foot pole, M:I feels about in the middle of those two, yet I have seen Ghost Protocol like 500 times
2 is one of my most favorite movies of all time.
all jokes aside, i actually love MI:2 aswell. the bike chase was absolutly stellar at the end.
I think M:I 3 has such a different feel also because of the way it is shot. There were so many more close-ups used throughout. Probably because of JJ's TV background at the time. Not as many wide angle "cinematic" shots that the series is full of. But I think it fits the tone and feel of the movie since we are becoming closer and more intimate with the characters in this installment.
It’s also written by Alex Kurtzman that I have heard that is currently ruining Star Trek
This film had a great story, great characters, had the best villain in the franchise, filled with action and suspense. And one of the greatest movie openings of all time
Describe a personality trait of characters besides Ethan and Luther.
I have a soft spot for the first film but, goodness me, the series from 3 is stellar. It does not get enough love
I always did say to myself that JJ Abrams knows how to revive a franchise (for the most part). Just look at Star Trek, Star Wars The Force Awakens, and this movie.
^This!
Star Wars? 😂😂😂
I'm talking about The Force Awakens, not The Rise of Skywalker. Notice how I said for the most part.
@@johngoodman8954
Let’s face it, even The Force Awakens has its naysayers. I love it though, and I agree it brought ‘Star Wars’ back into the mainstream.
The Rise of Skywalker stalled things at best, but luckily we got The Mandalorian to keep things afloat.
In addition with Alex Kurtzman that wrote Mission Impossible 3
My brother and I were in the rabbit hole of Alias when we went to see MI: 3 ... and from the beginning we agreed: It seemed like an extended episode of the series. We liked it a lot and I have always thought it was because we were very fans of the series. For me it is still my favorite movie of the saga.
"[3:35] For the first time, they are also about Ethan helping his friends and family, people he feels a responsibility towards, which makes it all more painful when we see Lindsey die in a particularly gruesome way" - That's basically an explanation of how fridging works.
I would’ve liked to see a lot more of Lindsey. They could’ve fridged her two movies later where it would have had a huge impact on the audience and not just Ethan. Having his protege joining him on dangerous missions is very fertile ground for good storytelling. I love Ilsa but to see Ethan working with a woman he cares about and ISN’T romantically invested in would have been awesome.
I would say this movie is comparable to Fast Five.
Where both movies changed and set the tones for the franchise to follow suit afterwards.
More like Fast and Furious 2009 because it didn't do as well as it's follow ups box office wise
@@vgjunkie8386 I thought five did the best in the box office
@@user-ju4ew6hn1i not with MI III, it made 400 million while Ghost Protocol and any follow sequel made from 700 mil above.
Davian: What's your name?
Do have a family?.. A wife?
I'm gonna hurt her.. I'm gonna hurt her really bad..
Unpopular opinion:
Mission Impossible is a better series than James Bond
Undoubtedly, James Bond was merely early plus they tend are more bland compared to MI (post -2) series
That's an unpopular opinion?
Naah.
Bond has class.
@Aum 9403 are you kidding me. Mission Impossible is realistic?! ARE YOU KIDDING ME ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND!
I love both.
Contribution of MI2 to the franchise:
1) Establishing Ethan as an acrobatic superspy, We didn't know anything about Ethan's hand to hand & gun fight skills in M:I
2) Voice changing sticker
3) Start of bike chase sequences
4) Awesome background scores
THANK YOU JOHN WOO!
About the voice changer, you're not wrong (if I remember, Hunt had to impersonate some US congressman or something w/o a voice change)
Thank you so much for showing how much to appreciate about this specific installment. MI:3 has always been my favourite too do to exactly being more than "just" action.
The most interesting thing to me is that JJ always gets flak for how much he emphasizes the style of filmmaking. But it works here because it’s done in tandem with the emotional core of the story.
MI3 was the first I got to see and I remember it best! PSH RIP
MI:2 is actually my favorite. Was the first one I saw at a young age and have a soft spot for it.
The MI-3 to MI-6 movies are very well made. Some of my favorite action movies in the last decade.
I definitely agree, Philip Seymour Hoffman is the best villain in the series. I’m sure it helped that he was arguably the best actor of his generation.
It surprises me that MI III is as underrated as it is. I’ve always thought it was a super solid action film. I think it often gets overlooked because the series continually got better from there and that was the starting point
It has a kickass opening scene, a very charismatic and menacing villain but the action scenes are not as goodly shot as the other ones. Too much overediting and shaky cam.
Ok yes, it's fun to find a video explaining the importance of MI:III to the franchise in perfect detail (and way better than I ever have), but it's way MORE fun to find a video that says everything you've ever wanted to explain about a movie in an easy to share format. Great stuff, thanks!
When they capture the bad dude , Hoffman rip, and are leaving on a boat away from the Vatican is one of my favorite shots of all time , in HD its a beautiful shot !
I was about 10 when the 1st MI came out, and I thought the CIA wire scene and the helicopter blast scene were the greatest things I had seen on screen, so the nostalgia alone makes this movie faultless. MI2 would seamlessly fit into the late 90s explosion/slow motion/action era of Bruckheimer, Nicolas Cage and evidently John Woo, I loved it.......ofcourse until I saw MI3, I was older and it was hinted around this time that Tom wanted to make this not only a trilogy, but a series of movies so this made it the movie I rooted for the most which as you would call it...Save the franchise :) The rest is history. I watch the whole series of movies every time a new one is about to be released, i've learned to appreciate all of them in their unique way, but I must say Fallout is just about as perfect an action movie as it gets.
"Brian de Palma...got to stretch his flair for 'split-screen editing'" played over footage of what is clearly a shot filmed on a split diopter lens, that in no way features any split-screen editing/post-production. I don't think M:I1 contains any split-screen editing whatsoever, but I admit I haven't seen it in a while though I know it pretty well. A diopter lens does not even produce an "optical effect" it's literally raw optics (beyond the aesthetic effect obviously), but an aesthetic impact does not an optical effect make.
Thank you for uploading this. I still very much enjoy this franchise and for sure waiting for the new movie
PLEASE do not let Producer Kathleen Kennedy anywhere close to this movie franchise.
And it still IS MY FAVOURITE! for all the reasons you just mentioned: emotion, deep personal interest from Ethan for the missions, an excellent villain like P.Saymour and stil...crazy and lots of fun action!
This is my favorite in the series. It was so different and unpredictable when it came out compared to the first 2.
People love to shit on Cruise, somewhat deservedly, but these movies are just so freaking good. Can't wait to see the next one.
MI 2 is so underrated. Just binged the whole series and that one was so fun
Just watched it the other day for the first time since it came out. Felt so grounded but so high energy and exciting. Loved it
To be fair to the first one, the intent was "out with the old (Phelps), and in with the new (Hunt)." Supposedly, they tried to get Peter Graves, the original Phelps, to reprise his role for the movie but he turned it down because they wrote Phelps as the bad guy. Ultimately, even though it wasn't nearly as action-packed as any of those after it, it still accomplished what it set out to do: transition Mission: Impossible from "classic TV series mostly remembered for its music" to "contemporary movie series with high production values and even higher stakes stories."
Very rarely is there a movie where you can tell there's gonna be a sequel in the *middle* of the movie instead of at the end. The first Tom Cruise Mission: Impossible movie was one such film.
MI3 will always be my favourite. The villan was so good, suspense was amazing. And action was insanity.
MI2 was like a big budget 80s B-action movie. It was GREAT!!!
MI:2 will always be the coolest MI out there... the latest one (MI:6) comes a close second...
Nothing beats the original...
People give JJ Abrams way too little credit. Even if people don’t love every one of his movies, he’s got a large catalog of impressive films, shows, and franchises like he’s either directed or produced.
I like MI2. It's unironically one of my favourite movies. And I've always liked it more than MI1.
Yo I feel like you have been CRANKING out a ton of great content lately and I've been enjoying all of it. Keep it up. ✌️
Btw, love MI3. It was actually the first MI movie that I saw when I was a teenager and was obviously the perfect introduction to what the franchise would become. Certainly underrated in my opinion and I'm glad you're giving it some love!
One of my favorite action movies of all time. The opening scene gave me goosebumps the first time I saw it
Having only seen all the movies once each, I found 3 to be the most memorable honestly. Also, this movie introduces Benji so it’s automatically the best.
I think MI3 might be my favorite in the series, not because it's the best, but because, like you said, it set up the tone for the rest of the franchise. I'll never forget the power of that opening scene. In fact I remade it in college for a student project. Definitely don't think any other villain in the franchise can match PSH. RIP.
Gotta say, your M:I investigations are unmatched. HUGE fan of 'em. Looking way frwrd to more as the series continues. Good luck @ it
This could be the best and most underrated part 3 of a movie series !
I don’t care what they think about Mission: Impossible 2…..Mission: Impossible 2 is hella fun and John Woo is an action Maestro…….
As far as the scene in fallout being "impossible" without the foundation of this move, Fallout is the only MI movie I've seen and I thought it worked pretty well with zero background. 4:43
So on point! When I saw it I immediately thought it was the best for me, and it was noticeably a turning point for the franchise, seeing all the staples being followed now (for good and bad)
I remember when I went to the cinema with my brother to see this when it released and that intro man, wow. That really indeed set the tone for the movie. And Philip really is awesome here.
Here before the obligatory title change that happens with every single Nerstalgic video....
I just finished watching MI Fallout and I get recommended this... The RUclips Gods are among us.
I got into this series for Dead Reckoning Part 1 and I’ve had a blast watching the movies, nice to see this film save the franchise and give us a great streak of entertaining fun action movies.
3 was always my favorite. The most intense and the stakes were super high. It also had an emotional impact
What is interesting about MI movies is that first movie feels like completely different from from the rest and second one feels completely different from the rest . You could say first mission impossible is better James Bond movie ( even the James Bond rule to sleep with not single woman happens ) and for some reason Ethan can't fight for shit even though he is very good at fighting in the other movies. Second one is an straight up action movie though beginning is kind of meh . And rest of them is pretty consistent but third one does feel darker than the rest . And if you start from third one you don't have in the back of your mind that Ethan banged his best friends wife in the first movie.
Hot Take: I think MI 2 is better than MI 3, im sorry but MI 2 is fricking insane, like the stop mumbling scene was intense and is one of the best scenes of the entire franchise, or even when sean harris impersonates ethan and talks to his GF, that was insane, MI 2 has some of the best scenes but it doesn’t mean its all good, but MI 2 made me feel alive. Its bullshit, but the fun kind of bullshit, MI 3 is good but i honestly can’t remember much, there’s not really a standout moment or anything, aside from the opening, i do love the newer ones, but idk man i feel like the first 2 focused more on the mystery and spy stuff rather than action, like in MI 6 when benji is impersonating soloman lane i saw that coming, but the crazy shit of MI 2 i didn’t see any of that coming, 5 is my favorite don’t get me wrong, but MI 2 is much better than most people might say.
EDIT: Oh man, im honestly shocked at how many people actually seem to like MI 2, i never would’ve thought anyone really did like it, most people see it as oh yeah that dumb one with motorbikes and shit, but judging by how many likes this got, its not the case, MI 2 is absolutely amazing, and alot of people don’t give it enough credit.
finally someone defends MI-2…
love that movie… along with MI-4 my favourite.
I loved 2 too
yeh Mi3 is just JJ Abrams being JJ Abrams, a lot of frantic crap you can't remember anymore. Like Lost.
MI3 is my favourite but I do think MI2 and MI3 are generally the most underrated.
Great video, well observed and nicely compiled, well done and thank you.
I loved all of them .. I think one and two were awesome and plain fun to watch ..,they were just the beginning .. kinda setting up Nathan and Luther’s bond … then continued to grow legs and an amazing team .. and kept going and going .. the action and scenes kept getting bigger and better … I think all of the films held something for everyone to enjoy and everyone’s got their favorite .. 🤔 I just love Tom Cruise’s
movies 🍿 🎥.. He put the M in Movie Magic … Borrowing from the lyrics from one of the 007 movies ..”Nobody Does it Better.” 💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽
I remember Ethan taking about traffic and its ebb and flows
First! Also, I get so excited every time I see a new nerdstalgic vid
Thanks for being a true fan
MI:III is easily my favorite in the franchise. Because of all the reasons you mentioned. We learn that Ethan is human, with flaws, with emotions, & sometimes he does fail. But his fails have dire consequences, & we as the audience get to see those consequences & we connect with him.
Philip Seymour is really something else in this movie. Loved his character.
I totally Agree with this. This is the one that got me invested in the Franchise. Batman Begins saved the Batman franchise and brought it back to life.
The only thing keeping the fast and furious franchise alive... is family.
Ooh ooh ooh it’s another great Nerdstalgic day!!!
Another absolute BANGER of a video! Keep up the good work👌!
Appreciate it!!
Best Mission Impossible by far...
This is why I can't enjoy fully the Latest Star Trek movies. The original movies worked because we, as the fans, had a history with the characters that made things like Spock's death feel real and dramatic. The newer Star Trek films seem to want us to have these same connections to the characters, which explains the switch where Kirk dies fixing the core and Spock goes on an Ape-shit berserker chase in 'Into Darkness'. The problem is we haven't had the real buddie picture to cement this character bond that would lead Spock to the emotional breaking point. Now Spock has to be the one to do the chase because he is the only one strong enough to face off with Kahn, but the emotional instance that sets him off doesn't fit with his relationship with Kirk up to this point. If it had been Uhura that died that would be another thing we already see the deeply felt connection between the two characters. And that's the real problem when remakes try to use fan based knowledge as the emotional motivation to the new movies.
Very good video!! MI3 is also my favorite movie!
This movie has always been my favorite of the franchise. Besides having a great villain and story, I really enjoyed that they made it more personal and emotional. I thought the relationship Ethan has with his wife had depth. The way Ethan was brought to tears during the interrogation scene is brilliant and showed how emotional and vulnerable his character was.
I haven’t seen this one, only the 1st, 4th, 5th, 6th
You're missing out
I saw only the first 2... But I have to be honest I don't remember what happened in those movies, because not every action franchise can be Dragon Ball.
Every time this guy talks it feels like his about to burp
Amazing video! Can't help but agree with everything you said!
Not even 1 minute into the video and I’m hyped. MI:3 has always been my favorite.
I rewatched Transformers a while back. It isn't that bad. It falls apart near the third act, but overall it's decent.
Written by the same people who wrote this movie.
@@BirdsElopeWithTheSun09 oh yeah! Didn't think about that. When they were a duo, they wrote some great episodes of Alias.
MI:3 is quite easily my favorite (after De Palma's MI:1). I was actually shocked to learn that it was the least grossing. I think they found out that stunts brought in more money than substance when the very mediocre MI:4 made way more money.
3 is my personal favorite, it's my goto when I miss these movies
Another great Video. Thank You!
Emotions make a good movie… you are Right.
Nailed it! I was saying to myself, Kittridge is coming back, I remember him, now I want to see MI7!
MI2 was flashy but since MI3, we started getting a consistent universe!
I disagree on MI3 being the least memorable. I think Philip Seymour Hoffman made this one of the most memorable ones. The pacing and action is also great
That drone scene on the bridge was epic
Weird enough, this was the first MI movie I ever saw so this was my most favorite mission impossible movie until the later movies
