The Final Mission Begins in New ‘Mission: Impossible — The Final Reckoning’ Trailer

April 7, 2025April 7, 2025 Mike Manalo

The Mission: Impossible films have given us so much, and never asked for anything in return other than for our jaws to drop. And drop they have, just as fast and far as Tom Cruise does whenever he’s filming a big stunt. The films are a love letter to the magic of practical stunt work, and the power of fun, escapist popcorn cinema at its finest. Now the countdown begins for what is rumored to be Cruise’s final bow as the incomparable Ethan Hunt, with Mission: Impossible — The Final Reckoning!

NOC Review: ‘Mission: Impossible — Dead Reckoning Part One’ is a Non-Stop Thrill Ride

July 5, 2023August 9, 2023 Mike Manalo

Franchise resurrection. That’s a feat in Hollywood rarely ever achieved by most franchises, outside of, perhaps, Fast and Furious. Much like that movie series, there was a time when the Mission: Impossible faced the relative threat of extinction. But suddenly, it came skyrocketing back in 2010, with Ghost Protocol and the insane stunt work of its maestro, actor and star, Tom Cruise.

Choose to Accept the Latest Trailer for ‘Mission: Impossible — Dead Reckoning Part One’

May 17, 2023May 18, 2023 Mike Manalo

Tom Cruise is flying high off of Top Gun: Maverick; the movie that saved Hollywood’s box office… after Shang Chi, Venom 2, and Spider-Man: No Way Home also saved Hollywood’s box office! Nevertheless, the one thing we know about Cruise is he brings the quality, the excitement, and the commitment to all his projects. And because of this, the Mission: Impossible franchise has just gotten better and better with each installment. Now we have the latest trailer for this summer’s Mission: Impossible — Dead Reckoning Part One. And it looks as astonishing as ever!

Star Trek is a Television Program — Period

May 25, 2015May 27, 2015 Shawn Taylor

In the last few months, there has been plenty of talk about Star Trek. Whether it is the news that Simon Pegg (Star Trek reboot-verse Scotty) has been hired to make the franchise less “Star Trek-y” or Popular Mechanics’ wonderful “8 Things a New Star Trek TV Series Must Have,” or the legion of fan films, or Adam Savage’s construction of the Enterprise’s Captain’s chair, or the frequent talk about how Trek has influenced the real world — all this, but there is no Trek property. No show. No amusement park. No decent toys to speak of. Just speculation, scuttlebutt, and rumor. Yes, there is a new film coming sometime in the future, but do we really need it?
