Tom Cruise Day 2020!

Happy Tom Cruise Tuesday! We’re extra excited about Tom Cruise Tuesday today! Why? Because it’s also TOM CRUISE DAY!! October 6th has been declared Tom Cruise Day in Japan – in celebration of the fact that, at the time, Tom had visited Japan more than any other country.

What can we say, they have the ABSOLUTE correct idea! Celebrating Tom Cruise is always a good idea. We hope that you will take a couple of hours out of your day to celebrate the awesomesauce that is Tom Cruise. Today, we have decided to celebrate the movie that was released the same year Tom Cruise Day was created: 2006! What movie came out in 2006? “Mission: Impossible III!”

Haven’t seen it recently? Want to?? (Why wouldn’t you?) Check out the link below for more info.

Without further ado, here’s some great pics from a great movie! Here’s a nice one to start us off:

Ethan has always been big on getting the bad guys – no matter what!

Tom Cruise Tuesday: First Impressions – Mission: Impossible – Fallout

Happy Tom Cruise Tuesday! It’s our favorite day of the week! The day we set aside time to celebrate our favorite person EVAR, Tom Cruise!

This week, we want to show our love for Tom by discussing our first impressions of Tom’s latest release: Mission:Impossible- Fallout!

You’ve seen the critics rave about Fallout for weeks, and what can we say? They’re not wrong! While we don’t agree that Fallout surpasses all the other Mission movies (in our humble true and correct opinion, Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol still holds the title for THE BEST Mission movie of all time. Yeah, we said it), we still had a rollicking good time watching Chris McQuarrie put poor Ethan through his paces in another epic installment!

If you haven’t seen this movie yet, what are you waiting for????? Go out there and FIX that, stat!

Go on. We’ll wait.

It was great, right?? We told you so. Now clicky-click that link down below and check out our first impressions of M:I-6!

***Spoilers beyond this point!***

Mission: Impossible – Poster Palooza!

The new “Mission: Impossible” poster is here! We at Buttered Popcorn have been beside ourselves with excitement, the poster is BEAUTIFUL. It pushes all our Badass Spy Movie (TM) buttons.

More on that later! Looking at the new poster got us thinking about old posters, and how much we love the Mission movies. Our excitement was just too much to contain, and we decided we HAD to come over and make a post!

What are we up to? How about a “Throw Back Thursday” post with the most well-known “Mission: Impossible” posters? Let’s do it!!

Naturally, we’ll start with the first one – the movie that started it all!

Beautiful, right? Nothing says “spy action thriller” like a profile over the mysterious and (during the Cold War) sinister spires of some Eastern-European buildings. And the lines give us that hint of tech that says awesome gadgets are in our future. This poster is everything it needs to be!

Keep on for more!

Tom Cruise Tuesday! – Newsworthy: Tom’s full recovery!

Welcome to Tom Cruise Tuesday! It’s our favorite day of the week, the day we set aside to celebrate Tom!

We’ve got a great reason to celebrate Tom today, and it looks like Tom has a great reason to celebrate, too! As most of his fans know (as well as anybody who follows celebrity news), Tom recently injured himself while working on Mission: Impossible 6.

Many people speculated that Tom had undershot the mark and broke his ankle trying to land on top of the building he was jumping toward. Of course, we at Buttered Popcorn never doubted for an instant that Tom meant to land at the side of the building and scramble up. This is Mission: Impossible, after all! And you can bet if Ethan is jumping from one building to another, he’s trying to get away from something, or catch something, and it’s not about to be an easy task!

Naturally, soon after we made our opinions known on social media, Chris McQuarrie confirmed in his interview with Empire magazine, what we already knew: Tom was meant to hit the side of the building. Honestly, it you look at the difference, there’s no other conclusion to draw!

Tom breathes through it. Such a trooper! ((Picture by ABC News))
