This movie was (and still is) phenomenal in 3D. Maybe it'll get a re-release.

Additionally, the light novel (All You Need is Kill) was also very good. That book is the story the movie used as inspiration.

Ah yes being disgusted by the idea of having perfectly healthy teeth ground down into nubs so that porcelain veneers can be mounted over them means I must have England-mouth. Am I at least allowed to dislike gold/platinum grills or would that make me British too?

Fucking retard.

I started finding finding Blunt repulsive after I saw some stalkery vid on YT that laid out more or less precisely when she had veneers installed. I'm sure as shit not saying she's ugly but the idea of getting your teeth ground down to get that impossibly white Hollywood smile just disgusts me.
In guessing because she's a smoker.

American inventors are thoroughly awesome. Try again, beans on toast.
Wait, I thought they did cheese on toast, like some sort of retarded open-faced grilled cheese sandwich. They do the beans with the full English breakfast, which is fine. I'm not a big fan of black pudding though.

"we got black pudding"

Their cuisine never got over WWII. It's a joke but its also serious. Those Youtube Brit's (Fake Edit: JOLLY who have 5m subs now, sweet mother) who came to America trying American Food™, mostly in the South, then brought that back to the UK for other Brits to try never get old. Also, they have been trying to make this sequel for the entirety of the 10 years since the first came out but everyone's schedules, Cruise's, Blunt's and Limon's have been too busy.

Now that everything in Hollywood is struggling, mostly losing its ass at the box office, and Cruise is one of the few people to be successful in post COVID (Top Gun: Maverick when the whole industry needed it, I don't know that MI whatever was hugely successful), I haven't read this anywhere but I would surmise he has carte blanche to make things he wants, and this was on his list.

Real Edit: Their McD's though have the Big Arch, and ours don't. I guess they don't have Whataburger, either, though.

The tomatoes are there to add a bit of acidity or brightness to what is a pretty rich meal. The only tomatoes I ever typically buy are cherry tomatoes or camparis when they're in season.

If I make big breakfast for the wife and I on the weekend, and say I'm doing fried eggs, bacon, hash browns, etc. , I'll have some tomatoes and char them in whatever pan and that I got going. Not a lot but just enough to have a little bite here and there between whatever the hell you're eating, and it works.

I've not ever done the whole bean thing though, and I would imagine that's probably just for cheap protein and the sweetness, but I think British baked beans are different than what we have over here. I've not ever had a can of the Heinz British whatever beans.

You can fuck off with the black pudding oatmeal BS though.

Nothing wrong with a Sunday roast though. Meat and taters is tried and true. I don't really care for a Yorkshire pudding, but some green vegetables and a big piece of roasted beef, crispy potatoes, a good gravy, that's pretty hard to beat.

Well, until the Blockbuster Era started with Jaws, almost every sequel was a cash-grab remake of the original. Sequels weren't bigger and better, they were diminishing returns on the originals. You didn't get many Godfather 1&2s or Star Wars OT, you mostly got Friday the 13th 1-9, Herby Goes Bananas, Herby Goes to Panama, Herby Goes to France, etc. We just got WAAAY more original content, because movies were far cheaper and content far less available. If it wasn't in the theater or on the Big Three TV, it wasn't being made, with very few exceptions.

Hollywood has always been a soulless, IP mining machine. They previously were shrewd businessmen, though, who knew how to make money. Now they are either ideologues, who only care about The Message™ or are some arm of a Tech Giant, or both.

Edit: Your statement It's a great and noble dream, that we just let some stories run their course and end. That will require auteurs/IP owners like George Lucas who can A) create good stories again B) have the courage to write a definitive ending for them. I can only think of JK Rowling who has resisted the siren call of money and pressure to not do an "Grown up Harry Potter" series. Helps that she is rich as Canada and fantastically opinionated in the most polarizing ways, somehow.

We call that ketchup over on this side of the pond.
That's not the same by any stretch of the imagination.

I don't ever really use ketchup other than if I'm making cocktail sauce if I'm doing boiled shrimp or fried fish or something. And that normally is a lot of horseradish and hot sauce, Crystal preferably.

Mayonnaise is the superior condiment, and I will die on this hill. It goes on hamburgers, sandwiches, tartar sauce for fish and chips, it's just so versatile. I was watching a cooking video last night about Peruvian chicken which I haven't made in a while but I got a bird sitting in the freezer. The green chili ahi sauce has mayonnaise and it's delicious.

Hell, Caesar dressing is basically a mayonnaise, and it's one of the greatest salad dressings ever concocted. Who the hell puts God damn ketchup in their fucking salad dressings.
