    Could be good...as long as Cruise didn't have any say in anything.

    Those Burj Dubai scenes are going to be great, but my god the way modern trailers are edited drives me nuts. This doesn't look as good as MI3 to me, but I'll still watch it.

    You don't like show-everything-yet-tell-almost-nothing strobe-light style trailers?

    It would be much better if they cut out the 50mins of Tom running. Then they could put in an actual plot.

    it's funny you bring that up. didn't he make the statement that he ran like 50mph or some ridiculous speed in the last one?

    But but, Tom loves showing off his running skills. I think he has a running scene in just about every one of his movies.

    As much as I dislike him as an actor and most likely as a person, dude looks like he can wheel.

    I think the best part of being a Tom Cruise would be the sheer amount of isht you would be capable of just from being trained in so many things by so many professionals. Hate him or not, I bet you Tom Cruise really could wheelie a motorcycle through a glass store front, spin kick you in the face then do handsprings out.

    Also, the best part of Tom Cruise movies is, even if they suck, you know they spend the GDP of a small nation to make it, so at least it will be entertaining.

    Exactly. I couldn't care less about his scientology voodoo or whatever he does off-screen. On-screen the dude is a massively successful actor who puts on a good performance. I don't go see one of his movies and think about scientology **** the entire time. I don't even think about it for a fraction of a second.

    Looks like fun! What is the car they get out of outside the hotel? Looks like the Saab Phoenix concept. Hard to tell, but that'd be awesome.

    Preview looks really good, but I really hope that song with Eminem isn't in the movie at all.

    Definitely a lot of fun. There's a lot of humor in it, and the gadgets they used are cool... big use of apple products (probably because Brad Bird directed, who directed Pixar's The Incredibles/Ratatouille, which used to be owned by Apple former CEO Steve Jobs, etc, etc).
