Antti Näyhä Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 Trailer. For the 1080p version, hover on the ">HD" button below the video and click "1080p". At least some of the IMAX shots are immediately recognizable – look at the skyscraper bits near the end. Apparently the rest of the film is anamorphic 35mm. Unfortunately it looks like it's been graded for the still-trendy-but-getting-really-boring "teal and orange" look. Except in this case they've concentrated mostly on the teal. Oh well.

Brian Hulnick Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 I thought he had fallen out with Paramount and was fired? Who did the kissing up Cruise or the Mount? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat Murray Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 Yet another shameless piece of Self Marketing by Mr Cruise. Self-Marketing for what? He's an actor. Actor's act. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markshaw Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 Self-Marketing for what? He's an actor. Actor's act. I'm not denying that. But if you watch his latest movies they seem just to be a showcase for how good Cruise is at doing stunts. Look at me I'm clinging to the windscreen of an SUV, look at me I'm dangling off a perilous cliff face, look at me I'm free falling of this high rise apartment.

K Borowski Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 Umm, well, it is a Mission: Impossible movie. What do you want him doing, jockeying a desk? I'm pretty sure that Mr. Cruise did NOT do his own stunts off of a building either, unless it involved a less-than ten foot fall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Matti Poutanen Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 And saying his latest movies are only about him going through some dangerous stuff is a bit false. On Knight and Day that was true, but the three movies before that: Valkyrie, Tropic Thunder and Lions for Lambs not. And one should never forget Collateral and Magnolia when talking about Tom Cruise acting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Hulnick Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 I like Tom Cruise, however I have to admit that he is a bit of a camera whore and has a huge ego. That's Hollywood tho man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Antti Näyhä Posted December 9, 2011 Author Share Posted December 9, 2011 (edited) No 3D. 25 or 27 minutes of 15/65mm footage, the exact amount depending on who you ask. Opening next week on 200 IMAX screens a week before the ”regular” premiere – those will be both 15/70mm and digital, so be careful! It looks like the 15/70mm preview screenings will all include the Dark Knight Rises preview, too. (The link only mentions USA and UK, but it will also be playing at the Kiwi IMAX, so I guess that means all 15/70mm screens globally then.

Antti Näyhä Posted December 9, 2011 Author Share Posted December 9, 2011 Does anybody know about the post process? Somehow I doubt that they went the Nolan route, but I hope that they at least didn’t ruin their 15/65mm footage with a puny 4K DI (like they did in Transformers 2).

Premium Member Adrian Sierkowski Posted December 9, 2011 Premium Member Share Posted December 9, 2011 I believe Kodak InCamera mentioned a 6K DI for the IMAX footage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antti Näyhä Posted December 9, 2011 Author Share Posted December 9, 2011 At least this article reveals no DI details – only the fact that 6K HMI’s were used. ;) So it seems they also shot some 8/70 mm, and even some Super 35 for the 1.40:1 sequences… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ravi Kiran Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 Besides being a fun film, I thought the IMAX sequences were really well done, particularly the Dubai skyscraper scene. Is it just me or did some of the IMAX shots have sharpening applied to them? I was surprised to see edge halos on them. What is the general cost comparison between shooting 65mm and 35mm anamorphic? It is probably a pipe dream to expect an entire feature to be shot in IMAX, but if the non-IMAX scenes were shot on 65mm, there would be less of a a quality difference between IMAX and non-IMAX scenes.

georg lamshöft Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 (edited) What is the general cost comparison between shooting 65mm and 35mm anamorphic? Barely any, according to an 70mm-event at the Berlinale 2 years ago, ARRI has a special deal: rent 65mm-equipment but pay 35mm and a agreement with Kodak: same cost for film and processing per foot!

John Holland Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 Kodak dont process any film ! Is the deal that Arri process the 65mm at their lab. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Hulnick Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 The Dubai shots were so sharp that when Mr. Cruise looked out of the tower window and the camera panned down I actually got vertigo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
