Also the finale between Cruise and Scott was a lot longer with more motorcycle action and fighting.

It would be so awesome to see Woo's original vision, but that will probably never happen.

Always feels half the movie is missing when watching it

I think the shootout in the laboratory is missing footage for sure, you can see it by the way it has been edited.

Dude, virtually every time someone gets shot it feels like half the action is missing because of they way that they edit around the (often multiple) squib hits.

It's a shame we probably won't ever see the intended version. I really wonder if it still excists somewhere in the vault.

I kept thinking that someone's toddler must must have been running wild in the editing room and instead of kicking them out they gave him final cut. So many weird things going on in MI:2.

If Stuart Baird can't save you film, no one can.

And yet, it's a great movie. Imagine if we got the intended end result.

At any rate, all hail to John Woo.

hopefully not a "stupid question" here, I recently completed my MI 4K set buy purchasing the first three movies. I now how all 5 and awaiting MI6 in theaters, gonna binge watch all 5 next couple weeks.

I already owned MI4 and MI5 on blu-ray so I currently hold there Digital Files in my iTunes collection. Was wondering now that I purchased all MI in 4K do the digital files that come with these UHD discs are they 4K downloads in iTunes? just wondering if they are redundant from my previous MI4 and MI5 iTunes files.

Any info appreciated.
Thanks

Guess the quick question/answer here is, me being new to the UHD scene, are all digital downloads that come with UHD discs going forward are in 4K for iTunes or Ultra Violet?

MI2 is a mess but it's also absolutely glorious.

itunes automatically upgrades the HD versions to UHD, so 4 and 5 should already be 4k in your collection

Yeah, it's crazy how you can mutilate a John Woo movie and it still ends up being the best one.

[levcore]

I just rewatched the first movie and I was much more impressed with the transfer this time around. It looked stunning.

It's not the best John Woo movie, it's not the best American John Woo movie, and it sure as shit ain't the best MI movie.

Oh you. With ya jokes. Shine on you crazy diamond!

Dude, we got other people up in here putting Speed 2 into their top 10 of all time, nothing much surprises me any more. Opinions is fine, but insanity? They got pills for that.
