we keep living anyway

ethan hunt is actually a perfect protagonist because he’s a huge bitch, distractingly pretty, and divorced—all of which are essential—but also he kind of wants to die but god won’t let him, is in a situationship with his best friend who definitely would, is a rebecca ferguson simp, can never decide if he likes his hair long or short so he’s constantly growing it out and cutting it again, has more trauma packed into his tight little short king frame than should be possible, and is obsessed with always wearing a cute little jacket

Tom Cruise as Ethan Hunt MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE - DEAD RECKONING dir. Christopher McQuarrie

Rewatching Dead Reckoning and Ilsa potentially being alive or at least SOMETHING more going on there feels more and more obvious the more I watch Dead Reckoning the whole scene right before they go to the Doge’s Palace is like. Begging you to Get It.

Cruise/McQ, shaking us by the shoulders: DON’T TRUST YOUR EYES! THE ENTITY IS CHANGING REALITY! NOTHING OUTSIDE OF THIS CONVERSATION CAN BE TRUSTED! THEY KNOW THAT THE ENTITY KNOWS HOW TO GET TO ETHAN!

Everyone On Al Gore’s Internet: Yeah I’ll just take what happens next at face value thanks

“I’m the reason she’s dead.”

“No, she’s the reason you’re alive, and that’s the truth.”

Is literally the only acknowledgment of Ilsa’s death from the IMF gang and it isn’t even an acknowledgment that she’s dead it’s an acknowledgment of a sacrifice made to keep Grace alive.

Gabriel says very clearly that all he has to do to guarantee he gets off that train with both halves of the key is kill either Ilsa or Grace. Despite Ilsa’s apparent death, he fails to get off the train with either halves of the key.
