Your mission, should you choose to accept it: join Jackie and Danielle for a wild ride through Mission Impossible (1996) and Mission Impossible II (2000). From exploding gum and dangling-from-the-ceiling heists to John Woo slow-mo doves, the No More Late Fees gals are cracking open the first two Ethan Hunt adventures with plenty of nostalgia, laughs, and hot takes.
In this episode, we:
Revisit the iconic Langley break-in and the chaotic box office success of the original Mission Impossible.
Break down John Woo’s action-packed sequel, complete with motorcycles, sunglasses, and maximum melodrama.
Spill behind-the-scenes trivia, including casting shakeups, production drama, and the lost “Wolverine that could have been.”
Debate Roger Ebert’s surprising reviews, questionable plot twists, and whether Ethan Hunt is really just Tom Cruise’s ultimate vanity project.
Celebrate the nostalgia of Blockbuster nights, DVD special features, and our own Y2K-era movie memories.
If you love 90s and 2000s movies, fandom hot takes, and a mix of trivia and comedy, this double feature episode is for you. Don’t forget to rate, review, and subscribe to No More Late Fees wherever you listen, and share your favorite Mission Impossible moment with us—we might just feature it on a future episode!
