The title is: Ghost Protocol.

Okay.

A little bummed to see Dubai is a location. Really wanted to see Bond there first.

Title was kind of announced/revealed Bond style, with a "Mission: Impossible Ghost Protocol" logo banner behind them at the press conference.

From Reuters: The film wil feature "really big" stunts on the world's tallest building.

Good thing they're not re-hashing ideas from the last one, then. :rolleyes:

To my mind, it doesn't matter whether or not something's been done before. What matters is how well it's done, and I'll be giving this film the benefit of the doubt until I've seen it.

I mean, if Eon were to announce that BOND 23 will feature a ski chase, a pursuit on foot through a town and a scene in which 007 takes the Aston Martin for a spin, would you be complaining about the rehashing of ideas?

Heck, the last three Bond films (and four out of the last six) have featured a traitor within a British government agency, and Bond has been held prisoner and tortured in three out of the last four, so repetition is hardly unique to the M:I franchise. If the M:I films "always" resort to the rogue agent plot point ploy, then Bond being perpetually bollocked by M and constantly having a "personal" mission are things that are also getting pretty old.

Mission Impossible Ghost Protocol the dark knight rises hopefully this means that bond 23 will follow the unique name syndrome and give us The Hildebrand Rarity.
