I’ve never seen Jen laugh that hard in any of your videos before Holden’s AT&T rant. 😂
Loved it.
I mean some of these companies have real issues with questioning customers.
Actually not thinking before asking anything.
Timestamp?
I used to have AT&T. I had nothing but problems with them. And they would get angry whenever I called and blame my internal wiring and threaten to bill me for the service calls if they could not find the problem on their end. One day I saw their tech working on the box at the end of my street and stopped to talk to him. He told me, RATS would get into their box and build nests, urinate and chew on the wires and that was affecting EVERYONE on my street. I asked how long that had been going on and he said he had been out here to clean them out 4 times that year. I no longer have AT&T but I do get kick when one of their salespersons knocks on my door or calls. I tend to rant a bit like Holden.
@@k.delpino1124 so just bankrupt them lol
bad service and all millions of customers LEAVE to another ISP and they have to go out of business and then if they try to rebuild they will make a better job
Channeling some real John Mulaney energy when he was complaining about Delta Airlines.
It may be a minor thing to some people, but I appreciate that Ethan’s wife is still alive and on good terms with him despite the fact that they couldn’t stay together for her safety’s sake. No manufactured drama, no off-screen death, just rational decision making on their part. And they managed to turn a predictable trope into a decent little twist.
Originally, Ving Rhames was supposed to reprise his role in the film, but a pay dispute between him and the studio prevented this and he was written out. During filming, early footage was not coming back how the studio had hoped and they brought Christopher McQuarrie, who had worked on the Cruise's film "Valkyrie" and was writing/directing "Jack Reacher," come in to doctor the script. He was shocked to find that both Luther was never mentioned and Ethan's wife had died off screen, so he wrote in the ending to explain that Luther was away watching over his wife after her death was faked. He also fleshed out Jeremy Renner's role. The original concept was that Renner could have been a mole within IMF and after the success of "The Hurt Locker" and being a lead in the upcoming "Avengers" movie, Paramount was considering having Renner take over the M:I franchise and phasing out Cruise (thus why it was called "Ghost Protocol" rather than "M:I-4," if they were to use it as a soft reboot). The movie was a big hit and McQuarrie teamed up again with Cruise on "Edge of Tomorrow." He ended up directing and co-writing the 5th M:I film, then directed and wrote entirely the 6th film. Now he is finishing up the 7th and 8th film.
it started the great duo of McQ and Cruise, he even had a hand to play in Top Gun: Maverick
McQ really saved the whole franchise... safe to say the franchise would not be the same without him
I liked this video just because of Holden offering himself to AT&T in the beginning. That was hilarious! 😂
The AT&T rant had me dieing. It's also why I'll never stop buying films on disc.
Jen, You were RIGHT! The guy who puts the mask over Ethan's face IS the same guy from the first one. in the original, he was working for Vanessa Redgrave's character, Max. They tried to get her for Ghost Protocol, her schedule could not be worked out.
And won't be the last you see of him - or Max's... family.
that's what i thought!! i was expecting max to come back after
With the same ratty mask too
The AT&T rant is a masterclass on taking a bit from someone and improving it 😂 the delivery is *chef’s kiss*
Y'all really reminded me of my parents at the beginning of the video; Momma needing the noise of the tv to sleep and my Pops cursing about AT&T. Thanks for the good memories. 💜
For me Mission Impossible Ghost Protocol was more of a turning point in the franchise. It’s the first MI where it actually feels like a ensemble team movie rather than Tom Cruise + team. It’s also directed by Brad aBird who is an animation director originally, and as a result a great visual storyteller. Look at the sandstorm chase sequence for example, it’s such an amazing piece of cinematic storytelling using the visuals and zero dialogue, and so easy to follow. Just amazing work.
The action sequences in both Incredibles films are master classes in composition and framing. He has a phenomenal eye for such things. It was really fun to see him translate it to live action. He brought unique and emotional camera movements and angles to all of it.
@@mycroft16 same for the sequence where the two meetings are happening at the hotel in dubai a floor apart - the camerawork really establishes the location of the two meets in relation to each other and the audience can easily follow where everything is
Finally, its here, the reaction to my favorite Mission Impossible Movie by far and before I watch I just want to say that I am glad you guys are enjoying the Mission Impossible Franchise and I hope you guys enjoy this one, also one cool fact before I watch the video, while filming this movie, Tom Cruise himself actually got to do the skyscraper scene to be shot IRL, no green screen or anything and with critical planning and perfect execution, you get one of best scenes in all of Mission Impossible.
I find it hard to believe that they didn't use green screen doing that sequence with the building because that would be extremely dangerous
@@cavaughngrace1488 Well, Tom Cruise is known for his own stunts in the Mission Impossible Movies and almost all of them are very dangerous because another example was the final fight scene in Mission Impossible 2 the knife that headed straight to Ethan Hunt's eye, that was a real knife directly near Tom Cruise's eye and that scene was carefully shot together to capture the intense moment where you think Tom Cruise would get stabbed in the eye. And honestly I am still impressed that after how many Mission Impossible Movies, he still does his own dangerous stunts.
@@redbolt1234 Oh I know Tom Cruise does his own stunts but that particular stunt with the tallest building in the world seems way too extreme for them to do it in real life without green screen cuz he would have died. I don't think they would have risked that.
@@cavaughngrace1488 You see him doing that in the making-of. Check it you then you will believe 👍
Honestly, Brad Bird needs to do more big action films. He's an extremely talented director for action.
19:52 Jen, that IS the guy from the first one. Playing the same character. That's why Ethan was all like 'just like old times huh?"
Came out near Christmas 2011.
Major upgrade for the franchise.
One of my favorite sequels.
Saw it in IMAX.
The first live-action feature by animation legend, Brad Bird (The Incredibles, Ratoutoulle and The Iron Giant).
From part 3 onward, these sequels stay fully connected (thanks to J.J. Abrams as producer).
From part 4 onward, they utilize IMAX technology for core visual scenes.
This one definitely proved that Cruise is one of the best actors to ever do action period.
The cast (IMF, villains) was great.
Jeremy Renner was super busy between MI-4, the MCU and the Bourne franchise.
Not too many 4th installments are this good.
This was Brad Bird's first live action movie he has directed, which is surprising as he directed The Iron Giant, The Incredibles, Ratatouille, Tomorrowland, The Incredibles 2, and the upcoming Ray Gunn.
22:35
If you mean Anil Kapoor, he was a major character in 24 S8 if you saw that.
Also, the Burj Khalifa sequence is probably my favorite stunt sequence in the entire franchise to date. I still get queasy every time Hunt is dangling on the side of the building. I also gasp when he hits his head on the window when he lets go of his cable.
Holden's reaction to AT&T and the internet going out, is the same I make when Comcast goes out. 😂🤣😂
8:04/8:22 FUN FACT: During this part when Tom and Simon first walk inside the Kremlin the Main Villain is actually waiting around and walks in with them from behind in the background. I believe he's the guy literally to the side at 8:22 and Tom and Simon literally walk right past him.
Brad Bird is a genius.
Watch Tomorrowland and revise that opinion.
@@DaviniaHill Watched and still agree. One of the only filmmakers since Spielberg to have that kinetic popcorn magic imo
Even geniuses miss sometimes.
He was originally in consideration to write and direct Star Wars Episode VII, and I cannot begin to describe how much I wish we lived in that universe
@@christianwise637 He's been attached to dozens of projects ever since Tomorrowland that have never come to fruition, which sucks because all of them have sounded incredible. SHOCKING though that he wasn't the first call for Indy 5 because he's the only director I can think of who's as visually witty and playful.
Hey got my comment read!! Just glad you guys are doing the M:I movies. Been fun and can’t wait for this one!
Hope you guys are doing great (and getting sleep)! Love that you are entering the films featuring Cruise’s more massive stunts- Burj Khalifa’s climb, holding breath for seven minutes, HALO jump, stuck to side of airplane, falling off helicopter, etc
Edit: Holden’s ATT segment absolutely killed me so true
I'm glad you guys started this franchise.
Gets better and better from here. Just remember to pay attention to the wider story and don't just watch the action like I initially did, haha.
Holden probably sitting there thinking the climbing gloves are AT&T products
It's not a Holden video, if he's not raging at AT&T
I'm so freaking glad you made it this far. This is, for me at least, right where the franchise took the next step. 'Rogue Nation' has a wider story arc and adds some extremely interesting characters. Plus there's just more of...everything...from this point on. Gadgets, stunts, action, suspense, missions, etc. Christopher McQuarrie is the best thing to happen to these movies behind the camera. He really fleshes out the characters more instead of following with some lazy writing. Goodness I'm so excited for the next movie because Rogue Nation is the one that made me go from really liking these movies into really loving these movies.
The AT&T rant is just pure magic.
This movie is amazing. I hope you both you both enjoyed it.
As someone who gets literal electric shocks in the legs whenever I’m peering over a high balcony or cliff or any other place overlooking a deep void, the scene of climbing the glass wall was pure torture!!
You do know that this isn't a natural reaction and you can train this away with the help of a psychologist?
Lol I have that too u described it perfectly 😊
Holden Vs AT&T is hands down one of the biggest rivalries of this century!
They really did well using the Burj Khalifa stunt climb as a selling point. Everybody went insane when they released those set photos, especially that one rehearsal climb where Cruise sat at the very top of the tower for a photo op. Every other film since then has had a big stunt, but this one stood above the rest just for being the prime sign of Cruise's team's dedication to the franchise. Everything else that followed, while being equally impressive, was "just" a fulfillment of that initial promise.
Brad Bird really is an underrated director I’ve always thought he’d be picked to direct an avengers film since his style is so fluid with any action genre. I’d be just as happy to see him make even more films not MCU related.
"We all have secrets" Avengers theme starts playing..😂😂
13:44 I can testify to that statement because I saw this in an IMAX theater, and as someone who has a fear of heights; to watch the scenes where he’s climbing the building was very terrifying. It wasn’t until a few days later I saw a behind-the-scenes feature on the film, and it showed TC climbing the building but with wires holding him up; they were matted out through CGI.
For the longest time, this was my favorite movie in the series. But then 5 and 6 came out, and somehow managed to improve on it even more. You'll see soon enough. Also, fun fact: much of the movie was filmed in Prague, such as the railway station, the courtyard and interior of the Kremlin, and the streets outside the hospital than Ethan escapes from. I went to Prague in 2017, and recognized the places from the film. It's a beautiful place, though I had to cut my visit short due to a medical emergency. I'll go back there someday...
Main bad guy-Michael Nyqvist. Was the russian boss in John Wick. Died 2017, having reached Hollywood after years of doing Swedish blockbusters. He was the protagonist in the original The girl with the dragon tattoo. Awesome actor.
Mythbusters also did a show on how being shot underwater is bs. The bullet loses its velocity after 3ft, so if you're 4ft and under, you're good. They even tried with a .50 cal Barret sniper rifle pointed at an angle right next to the pool. Same results
The rant at the beginning of the video made me subscribe. You guys are amazing keep up the great work.
This is definitely my favorite MI film, amazing stunts and amazing locations to film at
Hilarity immediately ensued with this video. Brilliant commentary by Holden on his eternal struggle with AT&T
This is my favorite one. Though I think Fallout is the best one. Rogue Nation has the best story though.
I can't wait for possibly Jason Bourne after this series 😁🤗😁
14:40 Glad to see Jenna healthy and laughing 😂😂
Just gonna see her splat. Opportunity missed indeed. I always thought that they should have done that. Jen is right. That is the guy from the first one.
Damn Holden, I FELT that At&t rant in my bones 😂
These damn isp's can bring anyone to the brink of madness.
Oh man I just got back from work, This is the first videoI click and I am already in a good mood. Holden I hear ya man!! I hope it gets sorted out. And Jen hope you're doing well and feeling good. Love that you guys are doing the Mission Impossible series. You're gonna love The Next 2 for sure.
all the MI movies after this one are all directed by Christopher McQuarrie. I'm interested to see how you'll feel about them now sticking to a single director going forward
And they still keep getting better and the stunts get more insane!
This reaction is proudly sponsored by AT&T. "Where you expect great service, but you get AT&T"
MI: GP is my peak MI movie, followed closely by MI3. The suspense of "everything that can go wrong, has gone wrong" was greatly delivered by Brad Bird, making this my favorite MI movie so far...
The hate for AT&T is palpable and I didn't know I needed to see that. Come for ghost protocol and giggle at the hate for his internet service provider.
I love finally getting to see all the super duper spy tech fail and break.
Director : Let's use CGI
Tom : I am CGI ( Cruise Going Insane)
The moment Holden said " Your Wifi is Offline" my wifi went out. We don't have AT&T, we have Spectrum but I thought that was hilarious😂😂😂
"I guess in the end it turns out all along it was your wife that went... Ghost Protocol."
Puts on shades.
Cut to title credits!
YEEAAH!
😂😂😂
The Tom cruise running gets me hype every time
This is my favourite one. I absolutely love the Burj climb scene - amazing. I liked Paula Patton in this. Jeremy Renner was a good addition to the team. Simon Pegg's humour is refreshing to break up the serious stuff.
One thing the movies do get right (usually) is that bullets slow down so much in water that it's hard to get serious wounded unless someone if shooting you at point blank range.
So this video wasn't sponsored bt AT&T if I had to guess.
I’m not willing to argue which movie in this franchise is the best, but this is my favorite. Paula Patton, Jeremy Renner, Burj Kalifa! This movie is dope. For this series its the “Fast5” equivalent.
Also the bad guy in this movie is also the bad guy in the first John Wick. That’s why he seems familiar.
Ghost Protocol is the first Mission Impossible movie I saw in the theatres and is probably my favourite Mission Impossible movie.
“She was never yours to protect”, Niiice Zorro pull, an fitting as Anthony Hopkins was in MI-2 😂
Tom Cruise was actually firmly secured by multiple cables while doing the Burj Khalifa stunt, that had to be removed digitally in editing. Even so, the stunt was so dangerous that the insurance company refused to allow it, so they fired the insurance company and found another.
Jen wins again!!!!
I LOVE all these films, they are all excellent! But there is something so gritty and heartfelt, subversive and respectful about the first one. To this day, watching that movie all the way through to that last, glorious scene, with Luther and Ethan sitting in a European patio to the sounds of The Cranberries, fills me with joy.
This movie was used as a surround sound system demo when I worked at Bose years ago. Particularly the scene with Ethan running into the sandstorm for the chase. Old Tom helped me sell a few 5.1 surround sound systems and make slightly above minimum wage. But 3 is my favorite though for some reason.
...btw, that "skinnier version of that guy from the first one", that is him. Tom has always wanted 'Max' to come back into the series, she sez no. But then they were filming some scenes, they found 'that guy' was in the same city, they did some digging, and he was available for that scene.
Ghost Protocol in IMAX was insane. These movies just keep getting better.
This was a great reaction and must give it to Holden for all the comic relief, your AT&T stuff is hilarious and just made the reaction that much better to watch, thoroughly enjoyed! You really should react to the movie Fall, the perspectives you see in the movie will definitely bring on that vertigo, Stephen King himself loved it and wished he had thought of it!
19:35 best avenger’s reference ever.
"Tom Cruise Crazy" is a deep cut, that's for sure. Always nice to hear some JoCo.
Holden's AT&T rant is priceless! Maybe you should do a new "My Wife Watches" series - "Holden vs. AT&T"
Holdens AT&T rant though hahaha😂
23:54
Holden: “What would the military be doing in this situation?”
Stony McStoneFace: “That’s classified information, civvie.”
I’ve noticed that you have been wearing a speed racer, T-shirt, and a little bit of a lot lately in the past few videos. I wanted to know if you guys would ever react to the live action speed racer movie. Personally, I’ve always liked cars since I was a kid and also loved speed racer. The character in his car ever since I was a child . it just sits different with me very nostalgic.
The scene where Ethan Hunt climbing the tallest building in the world was insane! I'm surprised he didn't get s slight case of vertigo!
22:32 “He Was The Bad Guy In Something Else We Watched” John Wick
Jens reaction to Holden at the start makes my day
13:10 similar scenes in age of ultron where Jeremy renner is trying to say something but doesn't say anything when vision lifts thors hammer and everyone is shock
MI - 7.5/10 (memorable moments and great directing)
MI2 - 5/10 (so over the top and stupid)
MI3 - 8/10 (it had better plot, characters and was full of emotions overall)
MI4 - 9/10 (the most impossible mission)
28:38
For movies kinda hard to do that level of intensity.
It's IMPOSSIBLE
*mission Impossible theme starts playing
One thing about Ethan Hunt Character is, he's a Agent and not a assassin's own by agency.. What ever mission he got, he analyze every single route.. If the agency wants someone death or catch, he's not gonna directly 100% follow the orders, he's gonna investigate if the person really guilty or somebody in the agency/government used their power/rank to manipulate/fullfil their own agenda..
Mission impossible is the rare franchise that actually improves as it goes forward. I really like all of them
“Sir this is a 5. You had three beers”
I was rolling…😂
God damn it Holden I had a pretty good laugh with your rant 😂😂😂
This is the one I started with! I still need to go back and watch movies 2 and 3 before the new one comes out
As the fan that commented said, this is when Mission Impossible takes off (By the way, as far as the 1st one, I agree about the 1st one, it was special).
This movie was fun, but now my two favorites are about to come, can't wait to see you reacting to those two.
Holden is a proud Spokesman for AT&T and everything in Between LOL
Idk if you guys will get the reference, but I saw a meme of the scene where Ethan is running from the sandstorm, comparing it to when you’re playing a battle royale game and the circle is closing 😂
Hard to start a franchise off at a 10, would love to see you guys breakdown the entire run and see most memorable moments ranked.
Idea for helping get to sleep - audiobooks.
I have trouble getting to sleep, too. I've found that playing audiobooks does the job better than TV. Although, it has to be one that I've already listened to. Otherwise, I don't want to miss the story and stay awake to listen to it. I listen to audiobooks instead of the radio, so there's always another one added to my finished list to choose from. A favourite of mine that I like to use is The Martian, by Andy Weir.
That intro of the rant got me cracking up 😂
Been waiting for this one!!
Hey Guys, luv the channel! Luv these movies, great reactions..for me the best MI movie is Number 5..Rogue Nation then this one Ghost Protocal and then the first one as i saw it when i was 7 when we went to Toronto Canada on family holiday to see relatives, the furthest i had ever been and it was cool to see over there...Much luv from Ireland..hope ur pregnancy is goin well and everything Jen, my brother and Sister In Law are also pregnant with their first...happy time☘️💚
Lol I remember the old videos of Holden always trying to find ways to film without internet xD ah, fun times
That AT&T segment reminds of South Parks interpretation of Cable TV😂
Your onnpoint with the fanbase people seem to love them from 3 onwards, 5 is my personal fav so looking forward to that reaction
Holden’s AT&T rant had me rolling. 😂😂
This is where the fun begins.
That WAS Sawyer, Jen.
I think the 3rd is my favorite.. this is my second favorite.
4:31 yes, Bad Robot (jj abrams) is still involved in these movies up until now
The AT&T rant at the beginning made this an automatic like.
It was the guy from the first one. He was also in die-hard. ( first terrorist killed) and he was the main henchmen in a bond movie. ( the living daylights) 80s
