I'm still amazed we are on the 8th one. I can remember seeing the first one and being impressed.

Holy shit, I just realized the first one came out in '96.

tom's really leaning into that running meme isn't he

Just once they should cut his head off. No CGI.

That strange little running man just wants to give you enjoyable action cinema. He's a gift and I'll keep accepting that until he's unable to do it. Fucking bi-planes where he's hanging off and a god damn submarine. Are you kidding me?

And 100% guarantee he did the stunt himself.  No cgi, no chute.  Maybe no wires because he’s loco.

Just saw the preview on the TV, dayum, looks like action out the ass.

Only superhero movies I still give a fuck about watching.

[Post Oak 20191]

These are the American James Bond movies and I absolutely love them.  I agree with what Mdmost said. That weirdo makes fun movies.  

The previous one was one of the best action movies I've ever seen.  

Cant fucking wait.

Does he still have the cinematic rights to reacher?  I wouldn’t mind if he produced  these two franchises well into the future, with actors taking turns, as broccoli did with bond.

was gonna say, this is really the franchise james bond aspires to be. such consistency, really since mi3 (mi2 was the only real dud of a movie).

even with sam mendes, the bond movies were very hit and miss. we're gonna miss tom cruise when he's gone. nobody can do what he does.

Way in. Dead Reckoning was a great action movie. 

[Scary Stranger 1713]

OK.  Stop asking.  I'll go see it.

The bunny? I think you're thinking of Con Air.

Lol no. I had to look it up. It was 3 with the rabbit’s foot. I saw it in theaters, there was no alcohol involved and I was attentive, but i couldn’t tell you what was going on when I walked out.

One of my college buddies is from Johnstown, PA where All The Right Moves was filmed (and Slapshot). We got drunk one night in Johnstown and took turns reenacting the scene where Cruise calls out  his coach. /csb.

No Rebecca Ferguson…

…but they did add Hannah Waddingham

[OneOfTheOutOfFocusGuys 2059]

1 was a good 90s movie, which is the highest compliment a movie can get. 
2 was embarrassing. 
3 would have been meh if anyone other than PSH was in it.  We remember it fondly because we all love him. 
It wasn't until 4 that it really transformed into the no doubt winner that the series has become. 

[Buzzrock 14883]

2 really is so bad. It unfortunately came along during the five minutes that Hollywood thought it could make good John Woo movies.
