The Impossibly Hot Paula Patton Joins The Impossible Mission Force!!
I am – Hercules!!
The insanely hot Paula Patton (“Hitch,” “Swing Vote,” “Precious”), who in real life generates steam in hailstorms, is the female lead in the fourth Mission: Impossible movie, according to Deadline Hollywood.
Excerpt:
I'm told that Patton will play a young operative who works with Tom Cruise's Ethan Hunt character.
Jeremy Renner (“The Hurt Locker,” “The Avengers”) also joins the cast of the movie, produced by “MI:3” producer-director J.J. Abrams.
Brad Bird (“The Incredibles”) makes his live-action directorial debut from a screenplay from TV writers Applebaum and Nemec, the fellows behind “She Spies,” “Fastlane,” “October Road,” “Happy Town,” the crappy American version of “Life on Mars” and (most importantly) some horrible latter-day episodes of “Alias.”

Interesting choice. I still think the third one is a damn fine action movie. They could do worse than Bird, that's for sure.
-
She was awesome in that... though I admit, I spent the movie swearing that was Alicia Keyes.
-
If I did half that shit I'd go into hiding. She Spies? Seriously? Making a Mission Impossible movie?
-
How in the holy fuck do writers with such a hack-laden TV resume get such a prime feature script gig like MI4???
-
Maggie Q was way hotter.
-
But God is she hot. I remember her being the highlight of "Deja Vu." Beautiful and haunting. I figured it was only a matter of time before she got some meatier roles.
-
they deleted my post on here, all i said was who cares about this. and they delete my post? this site is really going down hill, not only are they a few days behind in news, google news is more informative most of the time....
-
This is the movie I really want to see, and I wouldn't trust it to anyone but Brad Bird. No one cares about a played out Tom Cruise franchise
-
A coaxial question.
-
What about Fishburne?
-
I swear to god if it's used as the big twist again, I'm walking the fuck out.
-
Something I never do...but WILL in that instance.
-
I actually prefer her without makeup, makes her look mature and naturally beautiful. But with makeup shes just another showbiz chick.
-
and the American version didn't suck.I think they did a great job with casting and I really don't know where the vitriol comes from. If Brad Bird thinks the script is good enough for MI:4 then I'll take his opinion over Herc's any day cause Bird's track record is way better. Brad Bird: Iron Giant and Incredibles. Herc: snarky remarks on AICN.
-
Sheez!
-
So it's puzzling why you would say MEH, to this EPIC WOMAN!
-
That always works.
-
Er... aren't all directors first time live action directors at some point? At least we know that Brad Bird understands how to block out a story and choreograph action.
-
Yeah, but this is a proven franchise, and JJ really brought it back from the crap movie that was Part 2. I just hope Bird does make it more than some riffy raff James Bond knock off.
-
is that JJ Abrams is not directing. Anything is a step up from that.
-
dont mention t like its a blemish on their record. That show was great fun. Hot chicks every week, cool action, and funny dialogue. A great guilty pleasure that got cancelled far too soon.
-
The first was fairly enjoyable, the second was complete shit thanks to John Woo's horrible directing, but #3 was GREAT. And with Abrams still producing, Bird directing, and Renner involved, I bet 4 is as good or better.

She's hotter that Zoe Saldana
by planty_mcplant_plants_his_plant_at_aicn
Halle Berry used to me my favorite black chick, but now she's getting on I'm undecided. Patton is definitely cuter than Saldana, but certainly not in the same league as a young Berry.

Brian De Palma is THE MAN. All the film noir/spy flourishes in that film... UNTOUCHABLE.

Spolier: The impossibly arctic Tom Cruise get the pink slip
by thegreatwhatzit
when his egocentric character stages a phony marriage, behaves like a total asshole and watches his former popularity decline into total oblivion.
-
the sly cinematic references(Laura, the Third Man, Rififi, Topkapi, and probably a dozen more), the great cast he kills off in the first act, the flashback/reveal of the true Jim Phelps, the finale he wanted to use in the untouchables. I can't believe people hate the latex masks, that and the breakaway sets in the beginning are what make the tv show. If you're a fan of the show, the first one is your favorite (we always wanted to know what would happen if anyone on the show were killed and the mission was too impossible, which 60s tv didn't allow).
-
as well
-
Pretty but moderatly talented young thing that will get over-hyped to the point of nausea?
-
... for me the girl of the moment is Imogen Poots, as anybody who watched CENTURION can testify.
-
Soembody finally had the balls to fire those two retard incompetent fools form a movie franchise? Jar Jar Abrams finally realise what a bunch of fucking incompetent asses those two assclowns are whihc were bringing him down? Hard to believe the later, but really, they got rid of Porci and Klutzman? Maybe this movie might have a chance to be decent, after all, since they now got a real director and got rid of the two cancers of movie scriptwriting of modern Hollywood.
-
who got the role from Precious.
-
Imogen Poots: SMOKIN! V for Vendetta, 28 Weeks Later... ooh yeah.
-
It's called "mixed race" and you accomplish this by *gasp* banging someone who looks a lot different from you. It's evolution in action, and it's no wonder why racist clan families always look like shit because they keep injecting the same genetic problems into their offspring and act proud of it. 80-90% of mixed race children grow up into "impossibly" attractive adults, while the same percentage of purebreds look average or below it. BTW, by "race" I mean it scientifically as in white, black and asian - and most latinos are caucasian, or "white" so there goes a great deal of local "mixed race" claims.

Wouls that be Precious: Based on Push...
by harryknowlesnonexistentinceptionreview
...By Sapphire? Never saw it or anything she was ever in. She is cute, though. But MI:4 is already off to a bad start... and will suck.
-
I see a very pretty young woman, I don't see colour.
Please don't let the racist kids on here! -
...to see the big girl from 'Precious' unsuccessfully disguising herself with one of those MI masks.
-
Three movies in a row. You think they'd get a better vetting process.
-
it was insultingly stupid. terrible script, terrible direction. Whoever said it was brilliant should get stuffed.
-
...he just can't help himself.
-
No wonder Denzel was willing to travel through time to save her.
-
...she may be 44, but she still looks like she's 29.
-
I watched the first episode and couldn't believe how blatantly they stole the plot from the movie 'Frequency' without anyone crying foul. Then it turned into 'The Shit Sweeney' for a few years and I saw the odd episode here and there.
-
the closest any of you would ever get to a woman is squeezing your own droopy man tits, now do us all a favor and kill yourselves.
-
I agree hahaha Like these fucking idiots are going to get anything even remotely imaginable to this
-
Thank you.
-
And played a lesbo in Precious to boot. There's another hot chick in precious. One of the classmates. Wore some huge goggle-like glasses all the time.
-
Life on Mars = Cop is shot, and goes into coma, where he dreams that he is a cop back in the 1970’s knocking heads with his boss while investigating various crimes.Frequency = Man talks to his father in the past over a ham radio and stops his father from dying in an accident causing an alternate reality where his mother is murdered by a serial killer. Yeah, the plots are virtually identical. Also, Life on Mars lasted for two series so I’m not sure it turned into anything for a “few years”. That said I was no giant fan of the UK version (although I have seen every episode). My major issue was that every episode seemed about 15-20 minutes too long. It always seemed like there was a pretty good 40-45 minute story in there padded out to an hour.
-
This lady is very hot! I would drop many loads into her!!!
-
They should have gone with Lauren German, she's much hotter.
-
How can you say she is not hot. She's smoking!!
-
Totally agree. Personally I think MI3 is the best of the lot, however wasn't that JJ's inaugural big screen outing as a director? First don't necessarily mean worst. I have faith that Mr Bird will bring it.
-
fire everyone responsible for the stupid decisions in these MI movies.

I wouldn't kick her out of bed for eating crackers, but...
by royston lodge
... "impossibly hot"?
I don't think so. -
...but it was hardly remarkable.
I was interested in Life on Mars (US) for four or five episodes before I got bored. They weren't able to keep the pace up and keep it interesting. The characters never seemed to make a connection with each other, and they didn't take full advantage of the story opportunities the 1973 setting provided.
In the UK version there was action, humour, historical commentary, each character had a distinct personality and the writers did a great job writing dialogue that took advantage of throwing a nerd from 2006 into the mix.
The US Life on Mars wasn't awful, but it was very much a missed opportunity.
I kinda wish someone else could get a shot at trying it again, maybe on a channel like AMC where they could really stretch their writing muscles.
The hard part is coming up with a different ending that makes sense. If you just used the same ending as the UK version then viewers will see it coming from a mile away.
It'd be like trying to make a UK version of LOST. Everybody already knows how it ends, so how would you make your version different? -
She looks like she could have been plucked from Central Casting.
The bone folk have with this article is the "impossibly hot" label.
That's really over-selling it. -
Me: "You can have some too baby." *Taps her lips with cock*
-
and a better actress
-
Really way more beautiful. But then again, i always had a weak spot for Alicia Keyes. Believe it or not, i find her more aluring then Beyonce Knowles.
-
"Vaguely ethnic" does nothing for my dick. I want a white chick.
-
And has since posted about a dozen or more other stories. What has AICN posted? Nothing. Time to move on people, this site officially sucks.
-
The US LIFE ON MARS was a perfectly decent series, not "game-changing" but not terrible either. Imperioli as Ray was genius casting and Jason O'Mara was a solid Americanized version of Sam Tyler.
-
This lady is super hot. Will all the dick smokers on this site stop saying at she is not hot. That means Fareal or is it "Fagreal"?
-
He's an awesome director, but this franchise has been a bust from day one. It's not Mission: Impossible at all, just a generic spy vehicle for Tom Cruise to stroke his ego with.
-
I don't think Bird would take "Generic Action Script X" for his big live action debut. He must have vetted the script and probably contributed to it so I'm guessing this will have a pretty decent storyline.
-
...except for the reveal of Phelps as a villain. That's probably the most godawful, disrespectful thing done to a franchise I can imagine. There's a reason Peter Graves wouldn't touch the movie, and everyone involved in the TV show was disgusted by it. Fucking bullshit.
Too bad, because otherwise the movie was pretty good. -
Couldn't agree with you more. Brad Bird is too talented a directorfor his first gig as a live action movie to be an ass-slave for Jar Jar Abrams and Tom Cruise. It's sad, so sad!
-
I'm going to e-mail a petrie dish of digital AIDS virus to their fucking inbox. Masks were a staple of M:I from day one you fucktards! You don't want masks, don't watch M:I, really really simple. Next I guess you'll be crying about all the singing and dancing going on in musicals!
-
nuff said
-
and Beyonce is talented (singin is a talent) and she didnt start off shakin her ass... that started durin goldmember (man, those thighs looked great in that video)
-
I thought he had very little charisma and wasn't at all believable as an educated 2006 detective. My biggest problem with the American version was that Sam wasn't really different enough from the 1973 cops. He fit in with the 1973 precinct way too easily. There wasn't enough "culture shock". I think a good Americanized Sam should be like a young Gil Grissom.
I think Imperioli would have made a way better Sam. Imagine if the character had been a hard-boiled Italian-American detective who happens to be a "by-the-book" kind of cop and ALSO is well-trained in forensics and modern policing techniques. That could have been the impetus for some really interesting story lines as the 1973 cops might resent him for "forgetting where he came from", from their point-of-view.
I thought Harvey Keitel would be way more suitable as the Ray character. His version of Gene Hunt was way too humourless, but that sort of tough-guy approach could work for Ray.
Who would I have chosen to play Gene Hunt? That's a tough question. He could be quite as goofy as the UK version, but he still needs a BIT of humour to him. If he wasn't too old for the part I might have suggested James Sikking, channelling his character from Hill Street Blues.
Gretchen Moll, however, was a PERFECT choice to play Annie. Pitch perfect.
I can't every really remember the guy who played Chris Skelton. He was really a forgettable character in the US version. -
He wifed her before she became super famous. She's beautiful. Can act. And picks different roles each time out. And she's hotter than Saldana who is now too thin.

I just read that Colm Meany played Gene Hunt in the pilot.
by royston lodge
Anybody know if the US pilot is downloadable anywhere? I think Colm Meany would have been a really good choice for Gene Hunt. I can really imagine him straddling the line between goofy and sinister, which is the correct way to play Gene Hunt.
(My kingdom for an edit button. That last post should have read, "he SHOULDN'T be as goofy as the UK version..." -
its funny because girls could say the same thing about her husbanding him before he got famous.
-
Beyonce may be all over the place, but I can't knock her hustle. She is a money making machine that hasn't slowed down and went and married one of the richest (and best) rappers in history. She stays out of trouble. Isn't a party girl mess. And sure her acting is downright terrible, but in an age where everyone OD's on autotune, she sings live. Alicia is super talented. And I prefer her music. But she is sabotaging her career by breaking up a marriage, getting knocked up, and now firing her manager to hire her new husband instead. All this on the heels of her CD which was almost like musical Ambien...I may cringe when I see Beyonce all over the place, but I also admire that she works like a tireless robot and hasn't had any breakdowns/meltdowns or became a loose canon as a result.
-
You are right. And with all the roles she chooses she on the path to become more famous than him. They are on their way to be the new Halle/Eric Benet. Especially since Robin isn't really setting the charts ablaze... That's why I called him lucky. I see more potential in her career at this point than his.

By casting the impossibly boring Thandie Newton?
-
yea, robins career is technically done... no one wants to listen to an "old" rnb singer... and i agree on everythin you said about Beyonce. my only complaints is of her acting and shes a live robot (the greatest sex machine ever built)
-
Hated that they made Jim Phelps a villain. A hero of my youth. Tom Cruise sucks.
-
MI 4 will be cool. Nothing ive heard so far makes me worried. Brad Bird deserves some live action work.

Stone cold fox.

harrys inconsistencies about his Inception review keepin ya away? or are ya just wildin out under a new tb name (it seems to be a bunch of "new" tbers)?
-
Hot, definitely. But not impossibly. You can see girls like this at Walmart, for crying out loud. Okay, Walmart in Long Beach at least.
-
Nope. More like a cute girl-next-door type. Wouldn't kick her out of bed, obviously, but- you know what? This hyperbole was clearly designed to ignite this exact debate, and I refuse to participate. I suggest you all do the same.
-
look more like her? I mean, at least she LOOKS like a top model. I would cum pretty hard staring at that face. In fact I did a couple of hours ago. But instead we get the ugliest motherfucking trolls not only competing in that show, but WINNING it. Seriously I think Tyra is punking us. Excuse the outdated term but that's what she's doing.
