Question: Two questions first of all the first two films were such huge block busters, and everything why mess with success in terms of adding this element of the romance, and the humor, and secondly I wanted to ask you if you think the film maybe hampered or perhaps even held by the publicity surrounding Toms life.
. . : Well, I am sure the way you approach something when you are working on something it is sort of you have the way you do it, and I did not think going into this that I wanted to copy the first movie or the second movie. What I thought was my dream version of Mission Impossible still had not gotten made, which was a version that allowed us to see who these characters were as people not just as spies, and I loved the idea of exploring what it would look like when Ethan Hunt goes home, not just what his home looked like, but who is there, and if there is a woman in his life does she know what he does. My guess is no, and if not how does he live with himself betraying this woman, and he must know these two roles are going to collide. It is just going to happen. So that became sort of one of the themes of the movie. It was not a question of messing with success, I actually felt that the first two films for me would have been even better had they spent some time investing in the characters, and the people. In a movie like jaws when Roy Schneider is sitting at the table, and his kid mimicking him, and his wife Lauren Grey is watching, and you know you could have lost that scene from that movie I suppose, and told the same story, but it would have allowed you to invest in the people as much as you do, and that is my favorite thing that through the great blockbuster type movies have done, which is yeah they have the thrills, and the action, but the critical thing is investment in character, and in terms of Toms publicity I am sure you can find evidence that any publicity is good publicity, and also find evidence equally valid that having him go on Oprah is not a good thing for him, it is like you can probably find anything to support a point of view, but my feeling is what I control, what I can do is try and make a movie that is entertaining, and hopefully one that you leave a theatre feeling better, and more empowered then you did when you got there, and so I am hoping that the audience and I believe that the audiences who will see this film are smart enough to differentiate the two, the actor and the character, and I think that finally that the opening sequence of the movie is very purposefully shocking, and terrifying, and I wanted to see this character as vulnerable, and as frightened as he has ever been, and it was not because of any publicity stuff. It was just simply having Tom Cruise in a movie. He is such an icon that I wanted from the very beginning of the movie not to have him playing a cool guy, but rather having him play an absolutely vulnerable, relatable man who we relate too, and I got to tell you knowing Tom as well as I do I see everyday who this guy is as a real person, and he is funny, and he is self deprecating, and he is smart, and he is easy going, and he is kind. Not just to me, but to everyone who worked on the crew. He is a good person. So I wanted to see a little bit less of an icon, and a little bit more of us, for the everyman in this character, and I think the audience will see that.
Question: J.J. how you doing? I have a question. What was the most challenging thing for you to make this film?
. . : The most challenging thing was probably the logistics of filming in the United States, in Los Angeles, and Virginia, and shooting in Italy in two cities, and China in two cities, and Berlin, and having all the visual effects shots there. There are many, many visual effects shots in this movie, and special effects, and stunts, and it was really just logistically preparing this, and a lot of that credit goes to the producers of the movie who helped schedule, and set up the production of the film, but you know we were incredibly responsible I think making this movie. You know we finished ahead of schedule, and under budget. For me it was totally a result of having a crew that was just hard working, and dedicated, and great at what they do, and my TV training as gotten me use to limited time, and budget, but the hardest thing truly was always just in every scene where people are talking making sure you believe that those people hate each other or that those two guys are great friends or that couple is in love, I mean it was always the stuff that was the most relatable stuff, the most mundane that ultimately I think people will just know rings true or not , and so the stunt work was always a cool, and exciting challenge, but it was the hardest stuff was always the most unexpected kind of small character work.
