I mean I guess they could get another streaming service to pick them up but it seems like less of a guarantee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Human Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 Knowing I am a big Last Ronin fan my boss asked me how excited I was for the recently announced movie adaptation. I told him I cannot be excited until there is a trailer. With all the uncertainties at Paramount it can easily be dropped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudalb Posted May 30 Share Posted May 30 And the flood of news stories that the costs for the next Missiion Impossible film have gone out of contorl is the last ining Paramount needed in it's attempt to attract new investors to keep it' s independence. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filmlover Posted June 3 Share Posted June 3 Actually a bit happy that it's not Sony that will be getting them tbh. Paramount and Skydance have been collaborators for quite some time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if Sony had taken over no way they would scrub MI8 given all the money they have spent on it. irony is hte more is spent on a movie, the less likely it is to have the plug pullesd.. Too much invested,, you have no choice but to pay to finisht the film and roll the die. Some people here really have no idea of the way the film industry works. But I supsect Skydance management will take a damn good look at why MI 8 went so wildly over budget. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Human Posted June 4 Share Posted June 4 Wait, is the 400M budget for MI8 confirmed? Last I heard that was just a rumor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WittyUsername Posted June 4 Share Posted June 4 Whatever the budget for MI8 might be, I imagine that the “official” figure they’ll eventually provide will be noticeably smaller than that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
