Listen "Mission Impossible VII & VIII: or, How We Learnt to Start Reckoning with the Super Seriousness of Mr. Scientology #153"
Episode Synopsis
Hello, Hello, Hello,This is -- arguably -- the only sane discussion we have had on the "MI" franchise, courtesy -- the presence of Adithiyan and the special appearance of Mr. (Raj) Aryan -- but most of all the absence of "MI: I, 2 & III" moderator, Varun Bhakay.Dhruv, Cris & a surprisingly sober, sensible (and somewhat salty) Hemant are also there -- dueling it out about why, for some of them, "Dead Reckoning" works much more than "Final Reckoning" and why -- according to Hemant -- we all are wrong about "Rogue Nation."Spoilers, of course, for all the MIs. And a lot of shade (and some praise) thrown at "MI5" and "MI8."TIMECODESIntroduction - [00:00 – 05:05]MI1 to MI6 Recap - [05:05 – 34:58]Counter-Programming (MI's Legacy) - [34:58 – 51:57]"MI7: Dead Reckoning" - [51:57 – 01:38:23]"MI8: The Final Reckoning" - [01:38:23 – 02:31:51]Outro - [02:31:51 - 02:37:03]Congratulations to Jafar Panahi! - [02:37:03 - 02:39:40]Do hit 'Follow' on Spotify if you haven't already to help the podcast reach more people!Follow our Instagram page:https://instagram.com/queenisdead.filmpodcastREADINGS ON THE "MI" FRANCHISE (suggested by Adithiyan)1.
