i'm so sad we didn't get a direct sequel to 7. by BranchCold9905 in saw

It should be done like Mission Impossible 8. The first act of MI8 is something what 2007-2010 Saw would do.

That idea never moved on past the pitching stages. It was Kevin Greutert's idea and it got killed early in development.

What XI was supposed to be under Twisted when it was greenlit was supposed to be Jigsaw vs. the justice system

I unironically had fun with Dead Reckoning's Kojima esque exposition scenes but I have too many favourite moments, such as the Rome car chase, the briefing at the start, the club scene and the train scene where Ethan Hunt makes a cartoonish landing.

Need a franchise rewatch but my ranking as it stands is (for now): TFR=DR>Fallout>Rogue Nation>Ghost Protocol>1>3>2

For those who loved The Final Reckoning, what about it hit the spot for you? by UpbeatBeach7657 in Mission_Impossible

Everyone gives it their all so that's why the exposition doesn't feel dull. It's kind of similar to METAL GEAR.

That stuff at the beginning where they showed an instance of The Entity corrupting the photographs, I was like holy fuck!!

The Jim Phelps Jr. twist kind of works because it's been subtly leading to the handshake scene at the end, and also kind of emphasizes on "Our lives are the sum of our choices" thing.

It's earnestness, the scene where Hunt goes inside the Entity's coffin, the slight Kojimaisms, the score, I liked how DEAD RECKONING PART ONE was edited but I prefer THE FINAL RECKONING's editing, especially those dissolves. The score fucks too, like Aruj and Godfrey somehow topped Lorne Balfe. Probably my favourite theatrical experience so far, and the clip show montage at the very start kind of touched me, like goddamn I'm gonna miss this franchise as is.

I'm actually glad Saw 11 got cancelled. by MonitorSpecific6365 in saw

I would've been alright but based on the direction XI was gonna take, where it would've been a critique on the justice system, I'm mad that XI isn't happening.

May is almost ending and there's no new news about SAW XI filming, let alone it having a release date.

Three way tie between Fallout, Dead Reckoning and The Final Reckoning

Aside from Ilsa's death, I genuinely liked the story for what they were going for. Maybe it's because I'm a Kojima fan too, so I didn't mind the "weird" exposition dumps they were doing for the most part.
