@BlindWave
I cannot wait for you guys to see Mission Impossible 3 and Rogue Nation! Those two movies have both of my personal favorite villains in them!
How about you react to Leah Reminy's documentary on scientology instead of funding this piece of shit?
Like... it's so fucking wild that you guys seem relatively progressive, but you will react to Tom Cruise's shit, who is the most famous representative of a fucking cult that brainwash its members and harass them for life if they even manage to leave.
Fucking hell guys.
They have to react to Leon The Professional with Jean Reno and Natalie Portman, great movie of the 90s.
Industrial Light and Magic is involved with the special effects of the franchise.
Except for part 2.
When this first came out, I was offended that Mr. Phelps is the bad guy. That was an assination of a great character from the TV show.
Its good to see Rick back at the table
It really is.
I was wondering where he was. What happened?
He had some stress issues@@RobTheWatcher
Was that Rick? Looked more like the Dude. (where’s the money Lebowski?!)
@@RobTheWatcher He was under stress few weeks ago
Can we just get like a compilation video with just out of context clips 🤣🤣
That would be amazing 🤣
If I'm allowed to, most definitely haha
Look up KOB, he has some Out of Context vids
@@John_Raiyder KOB works for BlindWave as well now
I'm The Flaaaaaaaa-
"Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to watch all the Mission Impossible movies until Dead Reckoning Part 2 comes. Should you or any of your watchers be captured or unsubscribe, the secretary will disavow any knowledge of their involvement. This comment will self-destruct in 5 seconds."
Only this first one and “Fallout” are must-see; but the audience kinda needs the rest to get from one to the other
Also, the two TV shows.
the self destruct failed, it's been 5 hours
@@hellfish2309 all of them are great except 2. just because those two are the best doesn't mean the others aren't worth watching
@@eighteen-naked-cowboys it’s just my opinion - it can’t hurt you
Eric: "he looks so young!"
Me: "he is in his mid-thirties here. this is ten years after top gun and fifteen years after taps."
I was in charge of back end profit participation reporting for the Mission Impossible series up until 2006, when I left Paramount. Cruise partnered with Paula Wagner early on to gain legitimacy as a producer. For MI:2 he took the SAG minimum salary of $56k in exchange for an even bigger role as producer, and a bigger cut of the back end, in order to free up cash in the budget to attract John Woo to direct. Woo was THE trendy director in Hollywood at the time. TC’s back end was about 50% of gross on MI:2. I cut him a check for $52M after the first two weeks of box office, the biggest check I ever held during my time in Hollywood.
Goddamn thanks for that bit of interesting trivia!
This is one of the extremely rare franchises that has (for the most part) continued to improve as it's gone on.
The explosive gum is low-key one of my favorite spy gadgets ever. Kinda hope it gets used again in later movies.
21:30
She’s still vacuuming because one of the agents, the woman, said to her in crispiest, native Russian “keep cleaning, grandma, keep cleaning”. Which is remarkable, because usually movies mess up Russian, and because we’re in Prague, and supposed to speak Czech.
OK I WAS VERY CONFUSED ABOUT THAT, because I also just watched this movie for the first time recently and they said something about being in Prague but I swear the subtitles also mentioned speaking Russian, I didn't know if I was meant to take something from that or not.
@@AlanGresov As Phelps alludes to in the movie, the wall only came down a few years before this movie came out so assuming that Russian might be understood by spy types makes sense to me. A lot of the IM guys were probably trained to work in or against Russia so more of them would have been trained to speak Russian than Czech, wouldn't they? Of course, the real world explanation is probably that someone decided nobody would know the difference and blew it off but I can rationalize just about anything given a minute. 😉
hahahaha LOVED the out of context start xD
And need to say. "I'M THE FLASH!" is just one of my favorite moments xD
Gasp! A wild Rick appeared! I suppose Calvin needs the whole crew w him for this one lol
This reaction was really fun, but don't let that distract you from the fact that Tom Cruise ate Calvin Grubb's dog.
Tom cruise ate this mans dog! Spread the word!
Out of context crew clips is my favorite addition to Blind Wave.
Please, for the love of god, do the entire series! This was such a fun reaction, and the future movies would also be really fun.
19:16
He is literally the first terrorist McClane kills, the brother of Karl, with glasses. Here, with long hair and aged 8 years, he looks more like Karl himself. He was also Necros in The Living Daylights. Legend. Andreas Wisniewski
He's also in M:I-4 Ghost Protocol.
watched the whole series for the first time last year. Effects honestly holds up, especially for a 28 year old film
Did you watch the original show?
Same! I had a great time going through it and I can't wait for them to get to the later entries
TOM CRUISE = LEGEND
I remember when this first came out, my sister (who is very stubborn) kept saying "If they completed the mission, surely it isn't impossible?" -.-
😂😂😂 i mean she's correct, tho.
“Mission improbable” doesn’t quite have the same intensity
The “I want him in Alaska” scene isn’t a comp shot, it’s a split diopter.
It's great to see you back Rick! Hope you're doing well :)
I watch this movie every month. It's in my top ten favourite films of all time. Love it!
Given their love of *Bond* & *Mission Impossible* films, I think they would really enjoy 1998's *Ronin.* _Robert De Niro, Jean Reno, Sean Bean,_ and _Stellan Skarsgård._ Great espionage film.
5:31 might be one of my favorite gags ever. Bravo to the editor.
Thank you!!
Plot twist, Calvin actually loves Tom Cruise and these movies
Not only was Mission Impossible a Great TV show from the 60s, it actually sported an impressive number of famous Genre actors as full time cast and recurring characters including: Peter Graves, Martin Landau and Barbra Bain (both of Space 1999) and even Mr Spock Himself Leonard Nimoy. Even Bill Shatner appeared as a recurring character. The famous theme was composed by Argentine composer, Lalo Schifrin who based it off of the sound of the Morris Code for the Letters M and I (dot dot dash dash).
As something curious about the Mission Impossible theme, the hits are spelling M I in morse code. M is -- an I is .. .
So 2 long notes 2 short notes.
Man I can’t wait for the sheer John Woo-ness of the next movie
Fuckin doves and slow mo baby 🕊️🕊️🕊️
They should also watch the MTV parody with Ben Stiller along with it.
Worst movie in the franchise, but pretty fucking funny. Mostly unintentionally so.
@@shockzz1234 it sticks out like such a sore thumb in the series in almost every way that its not even funny
@@ThaRealOne436 What? You don't think that the bad guy lifting up the mask of a "dead Ethan Hunt" in slow motion only to find out it's actually his own henchman to dramatic opera and choir music, and then letting out an over the top scream that the Gods themselves could hear, ISN'T very "Mission Impossible"?! Shameful!
....although i will admit the transition from the over the top opera music to the rock version of the MI theme song they used does actually slap tbf.
@@ThaRealOne436 It really is the black sheep of the series so far and doesn't gel well at all with any of the other films.
19:16 - you're correct Aaron, that actor WAS in _Die Hard_ as one of Gruber's crew (the one who McClane leaves in the elevator with the _NOW I HAVE A MACHINE GUN HO HO HO_ message on his sweater). I believe he was also in the 1987 Bond film _The Living Daylights_ as well. Great reaction; can't wait to see you guys do the rest of this film series. 💗
Can't wait until we get to movies 4,5,6
3's the best one
They already did a review of the 6th movie after seeing it in the cinema
Luv the tv show as a kid. That theme song is a staple in entertainment history.
You know, technically, Tom Cruise is responsible for the recasting of Rachel Dawes between Batman Begins and The Dark Knight, and also almost singlehandedly responsible for the DCEU Mustachegate. I'm sure neither of those were intentional or even really on that dude's radar.
Also, he has an odd number of teeth, his top front tooth is directly in the center of his mouth.
ALSO -- Tom Cruise is the first celebrity freak out that I was like, 'Fuck yeah, dude!" while listening to. I don't know if you guys saw that one. I don't know if they were filming Top Gun Maverick or filming Mission Impossible 6 or 7, but it was during the pandemic and the production was only allowed to continue on the condition that everybody in the crew followed all of these strict guidelines and precautions, and then Tom saw somebody next to a camera not wearing a mask and flipped the fuck out on them because "I'M TOM FUCKING CRUISE, I'M FINE, BUT THEY'RE LOSING THEIR HOMES AND WE ARE THE REASON THESE CREWMEMBERS GET TO FEED THEIR KIDS" and I was like... YO!
Jim Phelps was the leader of the IMF team in the original TV show (and the brief 1980s revival) and was played by Peter Graves. Fans of the show hated making him a traitorous villain in this film. Peter Graves was offered the role but refused specifically because they made him the villain.
I love all of the mission movies. I know they are hit and miss for most people but I just think they are so fun.
Loved watching the TV show as a kid and I was surprised how much I loved this movie. Definitely my favorite of the franchise.
movie has aged crazy well. still gets my blood pumping
I watched it a bunch of times in 96/97 on HBO, never watched the 2nd one, then watched the 3rd one in the theaters and ive been a fan ever since, great movies that actually seem to get better with each sequel
This first film in the series is a great combination of modern noir and action. Brian De Palma did a great job directing this. The later films are great and the stunts, just stupendous but the overall feel is very slick. This film has a an almost leak film grain about it.
Please, Please watch the rest of the Mission Impossible movies!! It's one of my favorite action/spy series! Each movie gets better and better!
"That looked like a Saw trap" has got to be one of my most favorite parts of this movie.
But the MI-Franchise is WAY better than the Saw franchise.
Tom Cruise alone has a worldwide box office of $12.1 billion, the Saw franchise just made $1 billion.
Good to see you, Rick. Hope you're doing well, bud.
It's so weird that Tom Cruise is older now than Jon Voight was in this movie. And yes, this is the first movie with Tom Cruise as the producer. This was his baby.
Seth Green was in the remake of The Italian Job, which is also a heist movie much like the Mission: Impossible movies.
As a young Czech boy watching this in the 90's, it was so enjoyable recognizing all the places in Prague and also many famous Czech actors are extras, or have like a several seconds roles :D
I was in Prague for 2 days and couldn't see Charles Bridge the first day because they were filming XXX with Vin Diesel and Sam Jackson. Lovely city, that clocktower is stunning.
@@pablom-f8762 Yeah Prague is awesome, XXX is funny, because in that movie they drive out of Prague and right into Austrian Alps, which is like 4 hour drive, so the whole Czech movie theatre was laughing :D
The best script of all IM movies. And the best photography, if you pay attention.
Neat trick bringing up 2 points of focus in the video and only then do you notice the reaction screen is split in two and WAS THE ENTIRE TIME
Oh I DEFINITELY did that on purpose 👀 (thanks for the new headcanon, -editor)
I only noticed because Calvin's elbow disappeared 😂
The reel rejects did not get copyrighted because they hummed the theme.
They sang Tom Cruise's name as the lyrics. 😂
Tom Tom Tom Cruise
Tom Tom Tom Cruise etc.
The fab four...Good to see you all back together..bless you Rick keep on keeping on..
One of the best movie franchises. I look forward to further reactions, it only gets better.
This was his first produced movie. He talks about how he made all the mistakes. How this was his first stunt.
Would love to see them do the full series of these movies ❤❤
Aaron’s memory of a movie with Seth Green and a man who works with ducks may be Enemy of the State.
I can only imagine it is WEIRD for the OG Mission Inpossible fans to see this.
For those who dont know, when I said "OG", I mean REALLY old.
The franchise was originally a TV series. The main character of that show....was the surprise villain of this movie.
That twist was the main reason why the OG actor did not reprise his role.
I imagine it would be heartbreaking for the OG fans for their hero to be killed and witness the killer/protagonist to star in even more MI movies.
MI 3 it's the best one for me. Then Ghost Protocol they found a new style and BOOM... endless sequels at the same level.
Can't wait for the crew to watch the newer ones!
Please do the whole franchise! You won't regret it!
What up.
Late comment.
M:I is based on one of several tv series, created by Bruce Gellar.
Among many to hit television of the 1960s Spy craze.
My introduction to M:I was the second series from the late 1980s that
featured characters of the original series with newer characters.
Tom Cruise in the mid-1990s officially became a producer by
forming a company with Paula Wagner.
Both were given the greenlight for the rights to make M:I as an movie.
This was 1 of 2 films for Cruise in 1996 (the other was Jerry Maguire).
This first film matches the tv series at almost perfect beat.
Thanks to this franchise, Cruise becomes a even bigger movie star and
the consummate stunt performer we know today.
The legendary theme by Lalo Scrifrin is so timeless with Intrigue and excitement.
Adam Clayton & Larry Mullen from the group, U2 did the new version for the 1st movie.
As reruns of the tv series resurged during the movie's success, Cruise definitely had a franchise.
Also there was tie-in media, the video game by Ocean and the M:I comic book series aka The Ethan Hunt Chronicles from Marvel.
I couldn't wait for more missions as an fan, coming soon and I chose to accept them all.
20:51 Not a floppy, its a Magneto-Optical Disk or MO Disc, 230 MB, cutting edge at the time.
The best one of the series by far.
"i guess if you're an elevator manufacturer, you dont want anyone alive to sue you"
Good one, Eric lol
Also yaaay Rick. Yo Love to see it
Honestly this is maybe the best one in the series
You guys really need to watch some Brian De Palma movies. I think you'd really dig Blow Out : )
Oh look, it's Brian DePalma's signature split lens...
"STAAAHHP!!" -Eric
went through this film series last year. Really enjoyed them and excited to see what you all think of them. 4 is definitely my favorite of them.
What a great review guys. Awesome movie. And you guys just be bopping around to the music from the movie makes me laugh so hard. I grew up with the original Mission Impossible and reruns. So I know the feeling thanks guys keep it up
These reactions are gonna be fun if you guys haven't seen many of the movies recently. :)
This first "Mission: Impossible" movie was in development for a HELL of a long time. The original plan for the team that got killed was to have people from the TV show come back and play those parts but the actors were fairly hale and hearty at the time and they were all, "I'm sorry, but fuck you," so they went with a starrier, less nostalgic bunch of people for the death team. Probably a good call, actually, as it might have looked like Tom Cruise was working with his grandparents or something.
The original pitch for the TV show had Jim Phelps (or Dan Briggs, to be strictly accurate, but never mind) recruiting dangerous, fringe, criminal types to carry out these missions - terrorists (that meant something very different in the '60s) and international bad guys they could make a deal with in some cases. They were going to have a percentage of them be psychologically damaged, or maybe thrill-seeker types with no government connections at all. The creatives were very excited by this idea but unfortunately the network killed it deader than dead. The network's objection was that the very idea that the U.S. government would willingly hire or collaborate with criminals or dodgy people for any reason was ludicrous and unpatriotic and stuff. The early '60s were a very innocent time. LOL!
I'm not sure if it was by accident or by design, but that original concept gets an airing in the second film. Tom Cruise ends up performing all kinds of insane stunts in the later films but in the second film Ethan Hunt and other characters are portrayed as getting a charge out of the danger, which is a very interesting dynamic that they really don't have the time to explore properly what with all the slow motion doves and stuff. Everyone gives the second film a lot of stick, but there's some fun stuff in it.
The original plan for the movie series was to bring in a different superstar director for each one and let them go nuts expressing their own style in their respective entries in the series. Brian De Palma was a great guy to start with, John Woo was at his height at the time and would have seemed like a good idea as well. Tom was trying to talk Oliver Stone into doing one - his brand of paranoia would have been fun to see in a "Mission: Impossible" movie but Oliver probably didn't want to do a sequel to another guy's movie at that point in his career, which is fair enough. I would give my eye teeth to see a Paul Verhoeven or a John McTiernan "Mission: Impossible" movie, but I've no idea how far that strategy was followed. From the third film on the "Mission: Impossible" movies start to seem like part of a series, for better or worse. I kind of wish the last few hadn't been done by the same guy but they are a hell of a lot of fun to watch, aren't they? 😃
Welcome back Rick! I hope you're well!
Awesome. We startet the rewatch last week 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Here for the ride...
I know a lot of time has gone by so it's not that big a deal anymore (ish), but as someone that grew up with the reruns of the show, I can not BEGIN to tell you how much "Good morning Mr Phelps" had goosebumps-inducing cache. So when the movie came out it got a lot of flak from fans of the show for them to ruin the reputation of the main character that had done so much good for all those seasons on air. They even wanted the original actor (Peter Graves (the main (white haired) pilot in Airplane) to reprise their role, but was turned down when he found out what they had planned.
It was the early years of Sequels and franchises so maybe they didn't think the audience would understand it, but I think they coulda made Tom the Mr Phelps character... so the movies would have played out like a prequel to the show, where he was the main head, each week picking out his team to go out and 'do good'.
Oh well, this flick still holds a special place for me because I saw it in Prague when it came out. The cinema was more like the bar from The Shining; small tables and wonderful drinks. I got to laugh along with the 'locals' at all the geographic acrobatics within the city 😂
Calvin's "I promise it's me!" when talking about being locked out of a computer, yup...been there.
Hell yeah! I just watched all the movies and one of the tv shows for the first time. Excited! :D
Had no idea you guys were so out of touch with MI! Makes sense since Calvin isn't a Cruise fan (I am a fan, but I totally get it). I don't necessarily like Tom Cruise the person, but Tom Cruise the actor has contributed a LOT of time, energy, and dedication to the film industry, and I can respect that. Particularly with this film series. If you've ever seen some of his interviews for these films, you can tell he's immensely proud of them.
mission impossible was a tv show
and fans at the time where pissed at how the film treated the main charcter of the show
To me that made it that much better, because you'd NEVER suspect Jim Phelps as the mole.
As were the actors who'd appeared in the original. Peter Graves, who'd originally played the part, allegedly turned down the chance to reprise the role in the movie upon learning that the character was to be the villain, and other actors from the show walked out of the premiere of the movie in disgust.
@@jeffreynunya4716 Because having Jim Phelps be the mole is stupid, bad writing all the way. Might as well give Mr. Rogers a heel turn, it wouldn't be dumber.
It’s finally time. I’m excited to see where we go!
I would love to see the crew react to the other movies, even if they seen it, I think it will be very fun
You've got to love portrayals of the Internet in movies from a time when not everyone had it and most of the audience wouldn't know any better, so they could just do whatever was most convenient for the story about how it worked.
Max is the mother of Vanessa Kirby’s character from MI:Fallout.😊
Wow wild. I just watched Mission Impossible for the first time a few days ago... neat.
Finally M:I series!! God I waited for this😂
55:40 that's awfully familiar to the people who made "Executive Decision" casting Steven Seagal only to kill him off in the first ten minutes of the movie.
Yeah, me too. What gives with that?
0:22 I have OCD, so for me the lineup should be Rick, Eric, Aaron and Calvin. to form the word REAC(t).
just kidding.
love you, guys!
Eric is deaf in his right ear, so he has to sit on the far right or else he won't hear the person to the right of him.
Mann I can't wait for them to watch 2 it's going to be hilarious also Rick is back cool
I still really love this first MI film and remember seeing it with my mum in 96. Kristen Scott Thomas was pretty well known in the uk at that point for Four Weddings & aFuneral, so when Sarah gets killed off early that was a shocker. Obviously I think some are stronger 8n this franchise than others but overall it’s really solid series of movies. Looking forward to your reactions to them.
TGV means Train à Grande Vitesse in french (or High-Speed Train in english). Based on the livery, the train could hit 300kph.
The TGV had the land speed world record already in 1981 before the Germans took it in 1989. In 1990, the TGV established a new record then went on for a second try and beat its own speed record for track trains with 515.3kph. It lasted 17 years.
Found more info about the train sequence in a french article:
The whole sequence was a mix of special effects, miniature model of the train, the helicopter and the landscape (1/8 scale) and real size practical elements filmed with a blue screen.
The skydiving fan Eric is talking about was able to blow at 225kph.
PS: This movie released the year I was born and still holds up to this day.
Austin Powers in Mass Effect is such a brilliantly made video on youtube!
Can't wait for the AP reactions.
Finally! My favourite film series. I can't wait for you to watch the best ones!
Great review. Keep the franchise coming.
These movies are SO fun and these reactions to these are sure to be just as good! Looking forward to the next one especially, since it’s kind of the black sheep of the franchise. It’s sure to make for some great moments with the crew.
For anyone wondering, the Eurostar train has a top speed of 300 kilometres per hour , 186 mph. Not sure what it’s average travelling speed is but it slows down to 160 kilometres 100 mph when going through the channel tunnel.
John Knoll knows how to do good lens flares.
Look, I don’t like Tom Cruise much either, but he makes some FANTASTIC movies! LOVE the Mission Impossible movies (alll except 2), and Edge of Tomorrow is awesome!
Seriously can’t wait for the to get to MI4 because from then on it becomes the best action movie franchise
3 is probably my favorite of the series.
My man Aaron over here completely stumped trying to remember the "Mighty" Ducks. But that's okay, because it's not nearly as embarrassing as the time I had that entire MIghty Ducks conversation before watching Ant-Man with my ex-wife, because I thought it was Michael Douglas in Mighty Ducks, not Emilio Estevez.
Great spy movie,that train sequence alone is amazing :)
Can’t wait to see reactions to the rest of the franchise!! Even the lesser installments are entertaining.
4:40 the rhythm of the main riff is actually the letters "M I" in morse code
The Missions started to get really good when Simon Pegg joined the team. And of course Ving is great in all of them. But the writing and action gets better and better as they go
Fans associate Tom Cruise with the practical stunts in this franchise, but Peter Graves was the first to perform a significant and dangerous stunt himself for Mission: Impossible.
Finally, my favorite movie theme song ever created
