    I work in grocery. I have not gotten sick. My fellow employees have not gotten sick. If the virus were even remotely as contagious as its being presented as, why haven’t entire store staffs who come into contact with hundreds of people per day, thousands per week, all falling ill in mass nationwide?

    Saw this whole show yesterday. The Graham Norton show is endlessly entertaining.

    Looks fuckin' rad.

    Apparently, Tom Cruise jumped out of a plane 106 times for a sky drive shot. Dude is crazy.

    Previous trailer had plenty of footage already, not watching this one.

    There's a strange semi-Uncanny Valley effect going on where my brain is fighting with itself trying to suss out the shots where it's really the Super-Committed Tom Cruise doing this or that and shots in which CGI has been used to sweeten the effect (by a little or a lot). It's almost disorienting at times and, I think, not entirely successful, but it's getting way better.

    Otherwise, I'm excited for another MI entry. These have been pretty great since III, like almost uniformly.

    In addition to having the same director for the first time, this entry continues to be an unusual installment by seeming to utilize same plot points and characters of previous ones. Hmmm.

    1:36, 2:09, 2:20, 2:22, and the last few shots with him inside the downed helicopter while other one is barreling toward him. There's just something of a slight sheen to these shots--although that could just be Tom Cruise's face.

    I definitely see it at 1:36 but not in the other areas. Definitely a distraction.

    I mean, these movies never disappoint, so I'm there opening weekend. (And before you ask, when I was a kid M:I-2 was insanely cool to me, and no I do not want to revisit it to see it definitely isn't as good as young-me thought.)

    Also this tweet admittedly got me a little more pumped than even the trailer:
    Last 11 things I really enjoyed:

    Speed Racer (Wachowski/Wachowski, 2008)
    Safe (Haynes, 1995)
    South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut (Parker, 1999)
    Beastie Boys Story (Jonze, 2020)
    Bad Trip (Sakurai, 2020)
    What's Up Doc? (Bogdanovich, 1972)
    Diva (Beineix, 1981)
    Delicatessen (Caro/Jeunet, 1991)
    The Hunger (Scott, 1983)
    Pineapple Express (Green, 2008)
    Chungking Express (Wong, 1994)
