BOURNE Again!!
Merrick here...
Buried unceremoniously in an article about the projects & shenanigans of Universal execs Marc Shmuger and David Linde is a reference to a fourth Jason Bourne movie:
More recently, Shmuger and Linde landed Paul Greengrass and Matt Damon for a fourth "Bourne" movie, even though the director and star seemed ready to wrap it up after three pics.
...says THIS ARTICLE in Variety.
We'd previously heard rumblings that fourth installment in the franchise was feasible. But, unless I REALLY missed something along the way, this is the first solid indication we've had that the project is coming together.
This news should turn many folks I know into gooey geysers of splooge, and assures that The Age of The Shakycam will not soon fade. Thank god for that! (rolls eyes)

Knew this days ago!
-
And Bourne 3 was lame. I can't be the only one who thought so.
-
matt damon is a liar...
-
The concept got old after the first one.
-
As long as its better than that atrocious "bleeping Matt Damon" Sarah Silverman garbage, I'm in!
Ultimatum = Best Action Movie Since Conan the Destroyer!! You know it!!
Scary stuff, but even scarier stuff...

Love those Bourne movies
-
guess I should get to that...
-
I still ain't not seen the third dang-it!
-
No, no, no...better to go out on top. I really enjoyed the third film, but felt it went out *just* at the right time. Oh well...
-
suggestion..Bourne loses his car keys, and doesn't remember WHERE HE LEFT THEM!
-
IN THE TUB, IN THE CAR, UP AGAINST THE MINIBAR!
-
I'll never get it. She's hot as hell and that &%$#? Matt Damon video was genius. Ha ha ha ha ha ah ahh ah ah....
-
I fell asleep while watching the original Bourne movie...I thought action movies were supposed to be exciting. I can't see how this hauled in so many Oscars.
-
For my money, that was the funniest part of the first video, if only for how into it Damon was. After that line, Silverman just kinda shot him this look, like,"Whoa."
-
Double or nothing!
-
The last one sucked, and the franchise has already been milked. But I can see how lucrative it is to keep making these things so they'll have something to fill a 20-hour Bourne marathon on TNT 40 years from now.
-
Warners has Harry Potter/Batman. Sony/Columbia has Spiderman. Universal needs their tentpole too dammit! Even though a 4th Bourne makes absolutely no sense theme and plotwise.
-
It's a nice, tidy trilogy, as-is. I say let it be!
-
they look like good movies, but I'm averted to them for personal reasons.Silverman isn't exactly hot, but I bet she shags like a minx! I wish someone would write a song about fucking me to piss off their boyfriend. "I'm fucking BigTexas, I'm fucking BigTexas..."
of course, if someone wrote that song, it would probably be in a minor key and be full of regret and embarassment. -
at their theme parks with The Bourne Experience. Load a "magic-finger-bed" mechanism in a backpack, and let the customer relive the Bourne experience. Shake uncontrollably while trying to drink a soft drink. Lose all bladder control while trying to walk a straight line. Eventually vomit profusely. Fun for the whole family.
-
Meh.
-
I actually can see the need for a fourth film...thematically, I mean. Jason Bourne needs to get in touch with his roots by seeking out the family of David Webb. Naturally, he's still a wanted man and whomever was the true architect of this whole treadstone/CIA disaster, like say, the director of intelligence, as depicted by Scott Glenn, is still going to gun for the guy.Yeah, you could just leave it at part three and just fill in the blanks, but you know Hollywood.

Just have Michael Clayton dude direct it
by guy who got a headache and accidentally
Greengrass without everything that makes greengrass so damned unbearable.
-
I'd liked how the last one was the most actionny of the lot, but for a fourth installment I'd rather something slower-paced and more about the character.
-

-
...but I'll take it. The BOURNE movies are all good fun.
-
No, but seriously, I do have to say that Ultimatum made me like the series.
-
as soon as ULTIMATUM won its second oscar
-
but written by some other guy... one's called Legacy and the other is... i want to say "betrayal" but i'm not sure.
-
Eat it!
-
but they better have a really kick-ass script if they're going to do another one. I mean, the third one seemed to tie up pretty much everything.
Although I suppose if executed well, it could be a whole new chapter and arc of Bourne. -
Actually I dig the Bourne films. Got there a bit late and saw the last one in the theater.
-
Fuck those morons who think Greengrass can't direct with their tired epithets ("get him a tripod" har har fucking har), this is the best action franchise in years. If you don't like this I suggest you stick to Chris Rock action films.
-
Sorry but the fight scenes in the last Bourne Ultimatum movie were REALLY. REALLY Good. Some of the best I had seen. Mostly from the editing and filming style. WHICH INCLUDED SHAKEY CAM. I think some of the fight scenes are what won this movie an Oscar for best Editing.
-
It's true.
-
I think Merrick just came up with a better title.
-
BAUER WOULD PISS ALL OVER HIMSELF AND THEN GET HIS ASS HANDED TO HIM BY WILL.
-
Admit it, it sounds good, right?

"The Bourne Redundancy:" http://tinyurl.com/2cly9q
-
... with my gigantic black cock (it's a strap-on... i'm not black and my cock is less than gigantic)This is AWESOME freaking news! Love me some Jason Bourne. Best action series going right now.This next flick has to have the CIA send the IMF's Ethan Hunt to bring in Bourne, but inside of the first 30 seconds of the fight, Bourne crushes that pussy Hunt's larynx, and then whole movie must then shift gears.
-
...flash forward 25 years, get Harrison Ford to play Bourne and hire Shia LaBoeuf(? however ya spell it) to play his 50's greaser son...
-
There were likely to be as many Bourne films as there are Bourne books as long as each one is successful. Or when the next Harry Potter film comes out are we to bemoan 'the age of the bespeckled hero' not ending any time soon and roll our eyes at that?
-
He has a healing mutant power that allows him to crash his car into brick walls going 60MPH and walk away; jump through glass windows and get pounded on and walk away without a scratch. He's Wolverine without the sideburns!! If they make another one I hope the CIA agent isn't yet another incredibly corrupt, evil villian. It's more interesting if it's a loyal determined agent(ala Tommy Lee Jones in The Fugitive). And don't mention Joan Allen. BLEEECH!
-
I hated the shaky cam when it was used in the wrong places. Why the hell did they put Jason's head in the way of Julia Stiles when they were talking? Utter crap.
Now, I really liked the shaky cam for the fight and running scenes, so lets hope they figure out when to use it. -
I suppose that an eventual HD-DVD release is out of the question? ...Hell yeah, I'm looking forward to another Jason Bourne flick. However, I'm not looking forward to seeing it available in only "other" formats,...dang it. Bring it on, anyways.
-
Actually, after the job he did with Michael Clayton, I'd like to see a Gilroy written/directed Bourne installment, with Greengrass overseeing in a producer capacity. That'd be pretty rad.
-
But it was still a good movie. But c'mon, they got a good run with Bourne. One of those rare trilogies that's not tainted with a bad sequel. Don't mess it up!
-
...ought to feature in the next movie. I mean, there is so much in Ludlum's books that was simply ignored or over-written in the excellent movies (mainly because it felt too hokey and 'Seventies' - I mean, bringing your personal shrink along when you're a top-notch assassin?)
Still, some nuggets remain to be mined and Bourne vs. the Jackal is one of 'em!
Yay! Bring it on! -
other than leo, i can't think of anyone better to play bourne than matt damon. he and daniel craig are both tied for the next steve mcqueen title. i care too much for the books or the first film. and the second and third movies were fucking awesome. but, yes. once again, i'm not surprised that they are now doing a fourth one. i just watched ultamatum last night and just like x-3, there is still so much left to do.
they should stop with the fucking shakey-cam, cause i can't keep going into these kinds of movies with a fucking asprin bottle. -
Sarah Silverman was attractive when she was younger and she was funny as well. Now her comedy is annoying and her looks have gone the way of Sarah Jessica Parker. The Sarah Silverman Show isn’t funny at all and frankly reminds me of the vastly superior Chris Elliot show Get a Life. So in summary some of us think she’s neither attractive nor funny.
-
Ashton Kutcher as Bourne and Paul Walker as Bond. Fuck Damon and Craig, Miller knows who'd be better. (Matt and Daniel to return in their own films later).
-
You funny bastard.
-
I still haven't seen the last Bourne movie, although I got the DVD here. Damn, so many movies but not enough time...

More movies about ppl with backpacks waiting around in a hotel r
by mike_d
then getting shot shakey cam style. lame.
-
To the guy who said the movies were wrapped up with BU. Umm, are you high? We found out that he VOLUNTEERED to be brainwashed and turned into an assasin!! We still don't know who David Webb was and what drove him to do this. (I'm speaking solely in the movies universe, the books are a far different and better matter.) So yeah, there's a lot more they can do. I agree though that they should change the direction of the storylines; enough running around and dodging CIA assasins. How about someone close to someone Bourne killed (spouse, sibling, partner, etc) going after him? How about Bourne finding out who he was before entering the program?
-
I was BOURNE in the USA! I was BOURNE in the USA! I was BOURNE in the USA!
I don't know any other lyrics to that song. I was actually watching Ultimatum the other day and thinking that, if they did another film, J. Bourne would be a mentor to some young spy chick, fall in love with her and then have to rescue her from the 'bad guys'. And that would be SO GAAAAYYY. -
A fourth installment? Hmm. I really dug the Bourne films for turning Matt Damon into an action star and taking chances with style, though I feel less shaky-cam work in the second and third films would've greatened their repeat viewing impact. Hmm.
A fourth Bourne installment sounds money grabbish. Could be entertaining, I suppose, but what else do we need to see? I love Matt Damon but I'd like to see him move on from Bourne. I really would. Same goes for Greengrass and his shaky cam-dominatined work. I warmed to his style in the second film, even defended it, but I've cooled to it after watching "The Bourne Ultimatum" on DVD. It wears out its welcome fast. Thus the idea of a fourth isntallment already gives me a headache. I congratulation Greengrass on his Oscar Editing win(bravo!), but I'd really like to see him move on from Bourne.
A fourth movie could Phantom Menace the franchise. -
I've learned to like shakey cam. I used to hate it, until I realized, that when something boring is on TV, instead of changeing the channel, I can simply shake my head around vigorously. I find this adds a certain "kinetic realism" to the previously boring show. I really feel like I'm part of the action!
Yay shakey cam! -
The 1st Bourne is still by far the best of the bunch. Sure the other two have their moments but they lack the elements that make the 1st film so enjoyable and are less interesting on future viewing. Also Doug Limon actually understands the subtle art of editing, whereas Greengrass just fucking shakes the camera to induce headaches. I didn't even get headaches from The Blair Witch Project or Cloverfield. That should say something about how freaking shaky Greengrass' non-verite films are. Stop shaking the fucking camera!!
-
and find a better screewriter. Just keep 'fucking Matt Damon, the only consistant thing in this series.

I want to see if Quadrilogy is a real word or not.

-
..and they're making a 4th already..?
-
Apart from the fact that it looks like uncle Bob's homevideos I don'T have a problem with it. But I watch most movies on DVD these days anyway and on TV it's always easier to see what's going on than on the fucking big screen of the movie theatre. Of course I still think that it's a stupid invention and adds nothing to the movie.
-
I really don't know where they could take the story this time, but if it works, I wouldn't complain...
-
Bourne rocks.
-
Yawn. Another one of these shitty movies. Matt damon running around with his one face that he calls acting. Same old story. Lots of shaky cam. Fuck them and this over done franchise. Supremacy and Ultimatum are just a xerox of the original and each time it gets more faded.
-
That's the next title. I want credit.
-
That would rule.
-
Pam Landy (on phone with Bourne): "I need you to come in."
Jason Bourne: "Who's the target?"
Pam Landy: "I'll brief you when you come in. Where are you?"
Jason Bourne: "Standing behind you."
Pam Landy: "Jeebus!" -
The Bourne movies are all good. Probably the most consistent trilogy, but hell throw another one up there and see if yalls can ruin it.
-
hee!
-
and you kids with your "wrap" music and baggy pants. Playin' your damn "vidia" games. Get off my lawn!
-
thats the title to the next film. Matt Damon goes on the run cos the everybody in the CIA wants to fuck him. Problem is he cant remember how to fuck - damn
-
...but let's learn to apply the Costanza rule every once in a while. Leave when you're on top.

You can take that to the bank.

. . . and got learned it from Perez Hilton. Come on AICN, get lighter in the loafers!!!
-
It wasn't that bad in either Bourne Supremacy or Ultimattum. Greengrass did a brillant job with BU. One of the very best films of 07'.
-
OMG! This guy is SO SMART! We can't find any INFO on him despite these things called computers. And WOW IS HE SNEAKY!
-
It wasn't that bad, and at least in the last two Bourne movies it fit the story they were telling, its pacing, and the world they'd created. If you couldn't follow it, then don't watch the goddamned movies. Also, Sarah Silverman looks like a fucking monkey and talks like a cupie doll.
-
Marion really said that! The French are freaks! I agree she's hot.

Seriously, this is piss poor. Empire had this days ago. What the fuck do you guys do all day? It's not news. It's OLDS. Can you guys seriously pull your fingers out of your fat arses and actually post something WHEN IT HAPPENS???

It was also noted in Shitty-Sense-of-Humor-Digest just last week!
-
I'll get started on that. hee!
-
I was just calling the guy funny. Not very nicemarmoty of you.
-
I really don't give two shits whether you read empire or not. All that matters to me is that I'm wasting time reading 4 day old stories on a site that has the front to call itself a 'news' site. In other news, Sean Connery has had a fight with Stephen Norrington on the set of LXG, A sequel to Mask of Zorro has been greenlit, and Christopher Reeve has just had a serious accident. Does that bring you up to speed, fool?
-
...way to be cutting edge AICN.
-
But "Bourne Again" was inevitable. It had to be said!
-
I better watch the first one then.
-
I read this piece of news on my fucking local newspaper here yesterday, yet I love to read about it here because of what some fine people like some editors here or some talkbackers have to say about it. I want to read funny shit, opinions, some guys bitching about shaky cams or Sarah fucking Silverman fucking Matt Damon. Who gives a flying fuck whether or not the news is a day or two old? Is that all you care? Commenting on said news is irrelevant? Can't we have a little chat about the news here? Just go somewhere else then, please. I don't get people who post crap like "this is old" and nothing else.
-
...I kind of enjoyed the first born, loved the second, but thought the third was not just a lame rehash of the second, but also an appalling film in its own right.

-
I hear what you're saying. But I'm saying this - I can't remember the last time I read something on this site that I hadn't already read somewhere else, whether it be on Empire, IESB, CHUD, or whatever. And those sites actually proofread their articles before posting them, instead of making shocking mistakes an 8 year old would notice. James Brolin is the new Terminator is he? I mean, for fucks sake. It doesn't take much, does it?? I like this site, I really do. I've been reading it for a long time. But once in a while I'd like to see something pop up on here that isn't 4 days old, wildly inaccurate, or more likely both.
-
Perfect title.
-
Nice to have a grown up conversation. I see your point now, peace. Still, the James Brolin Terminator thing was funny as shit and spawned a great talkback. And I love that.
-
...How do you decide on how many exclamation points or questions marks to assign to the headlines?
-
in to the end of Ultimatium was fucking stupid. Completely pulled me out of the film because there's no connection between the contexts that the scene is played out in so they jar horribly not least because the scene is reshot in a different fucking location. Greengrass got too clever for himself there. And there wasn't one shot of the film that was held still, not one. I get that he was trying to make it tense but it just got exhaustive after a while. I love the Waterloo set piece on it's own, and the chase in Morrocco (or where ever) but the whole thing smacked of overkill. It's what happens with a trilogy I guess, you have to top the other films but it usually means you ladle it all on too much.
-
Yes it will make big money. Yes it will probably get decent reviews. No, don't do it. I really enjoyed the 3 movies. The story came to an end. Let it go while it's on its peak :/
-
but they need to stop. As Ben Affleck told Matt Damon, the next one should be called "The Bourne Redundancy". I humbly agree. What else are they gonna chase after him for? The series was great but just let it go. stop milking it.

I'm so damn sick of shaky cam. The first Bourne movie was great despite the horrible shaky cam, but they had it in the right proportions. Clearly, everyone thought that shaky cam was what made the film a success, so they put twice as much in the 2nd film, and three times the shakes in the 3rd.
Oh, and did we all notice how the first movie rocked, the second was meh, and the third one sucked balls? Coincidence? -

-
Bourne and Bumblebee eventually become friends.
-
it's been the new action movie standard in the industry, they've all been pretty well critically acclaimed, and, well, why not continue? I agree with those of you who are worried about the redundancy problems, though. Ultimatum, as cool and slick as it was, did have the same plot as Supremacy (minus the great apology-angle of the climax). Bottom line: I hate to see a solid trilogy get burned into the ground and become a formula of cliche`s, but screw it, I'd rather see more Bournes than Transporters. After all, if it's not going to be Bourne, it'll be other action movies, but they'll be more like Hitman or other video game bullshit.
-
Eventhough Damon said he was done with the franchise and the last movie seemed to wrap up the entire thing. One thing I do not want is yet another way to get Julia Styles in the film. What is she the only junior agent in that organization? They have had to stretch the plot more to figure out how to get her back in each film than her face has stretch wide from the first movie to the last one.
-
Bourne Free...as free as the wind blows...
-
...because I rewired their internets on orders from that bitch Landy. Harry may as well be using two tin cans and some string. Some speculate they already are but we're watching them and agents have been activated. As for the movie, I'm all for it. That guy who needs a haircut Greengrass can shake it all he wants.
-
Jason hunts down and kills all the shaky cam whiners. He then visits their families and gives them apples.
-
Greengrass is going all the way this time, the movie medium is restraining his true aspiration, theres not enough editing in there for him so the next movie will be a kid flipbook hoisted on a spinning top with each page being a picture of the fight. During dialogue moments a motor will cause the flipbook to shake subtly.
-
nuff said....
-
Something we agree on. Ultimatum was vastly overrated and vastly inferior to Supremacy. It was like they went backwards into the 2nd movie (literally in some scenes) so they wouldn't have to bother with any more advancing plot and could just concentrate on action sequences. Which might have been okay if I could SEE the motherfucking action!!! I'm over the damn shaky-cam. It may bring verisimilitude, but eventually it just inspires exhaustion and boredom. And that ending where Bourne finds out he volunteered and yep, he's pretty much the bastard he thought he was from the start. Wow, talk about your anti-climactic letdown. And a real romantic opportunity was missed too. The best part of the whole movie was him kicking back to life in the water at the very end. Everything else sucked. I just watched it again on DVD to be sure I hadn't made a mistake...but no, it's the rest of the world that's wrong, not me.
-
Oh yeah, I wrote you back on Boleyn.
-
Bourneraker, GoldenBourne, The Bourne Who Loved Me, Dr. Bourne, From Bourne With Love, Live and Let Bourne.
-
The story is told, theres nowhere else for it to go except down the shitslide to hell. Don't eff it up. Oh, and BOURNE PWNS BOND. In case you were wondering.
-
Bourne Never Dies. Which is true based on that incredible jump from a skyscraper, over a city block and into the water. The Bourne Is Not Enough? Also very true.
-
And the girl, what's her face from Last Dance, has to decide who the real Bourne is in a confrontation between the two Bournes in which the fake Bourne says, as veins pop out of his neck, "Kill him. Kill him! I am the real Bourne." And she's confued and crying, and the real Bourne says, "I know you know the answer. You can figure out. Just think." And she kills the real Bourne, because that is such a pussy thing to say that she knows the fake Bourne is actually the real Bourne because the real-real Bourne really likes to see people die.
Anyway, that's my guess. -

-

-
This series should have been the perfect trilogy. A fourth can only see a decrease in quality, especially since the third was already a slight step-down from the second. I hate how filmmakers piss on their own legacies. But money talks - even to people like Greengrass who I expect to have some artistic integrity.
-
Jason Bourne: "Come with me if you want to live."
Shia LeBeef: "No ... "
Jason Bourne: "You're their prime target. We've got to get you out now."
Shia LeBeef (acting increasingly frantic): "No, no!"
Jason Bourne: "Listen we don't have time. The assets have gone mobile. They won't stop until you are dead."
Shia LeBeef: "Oh no, no! No no no!"
Jason Bourne: "Get in the car. We're going to Paris."
Shia LeBeef: "No no no No! Oh whoa! No no whoa!"
To be continued ... -
Or perhaps prequels?
"The Bourne Menace",
"Attack of the Bournes",
"Revenge of the Bourne". To be followed by the animated, "Bourne Wars".
-
Bourne goes commiee.
-
He and Paul Greengrass are two of my favorite guys in film right now. I'm willing to bet that they would make a departure from the Bourne mythos of the previous three films and take the character in a new direction, while preserving the gritty action and feel of the last two.
-
can topple the previous three bring it on. If not, leave it be.
-
I thought his commie nature was clear after he bashed around all those greedy capitalist CIA-type pigs?
-
Cause he was bribed.
-
Heard of this series? Saw it won a bunch of undeserved oscars though? Must have been some small movie I missed during awards season.
-
So, yeah, they have that going for 'em...

Whuh-oh! The meds are wearing off! He's throwing a fit! >PUNCH PUNCH CRASH!< Call the Shadowy Agency of Injustice!

Its not even a comparison. One is the greatest action-espionage-thriller of the decade. The other is a clever and compelling marketing campaign for a really crappy movie.
Actually, Bourne actually killing Cloverfeld would be a pretty cool movie. Take that! Karate chop! Smash smash! -

I sat and tried to watch the last to Bourne films but still haven't SEEN them because the Greengrass style of "filmmaking" is fucking epileptic. No offense to epileptics.
-
Remember in "In the Line of Fire" how Malkovich says he doesn't remember who he was before they [CIA] sunk their claws into him?
why not bridge the two? Malkovich already played an older Damon in the Ripley franchise....
just imagine showing Bourne about 20 years after Ultimatum, not coping with life well, bad dreams, paranoia, etc..... -
Bourne really lets himself go, and as a result, can't a date! But eventually, he'll find love in another lovable misfit, the girl who lived next door. Aww. It'll be the light hearted romantic comedy finale.

Why are people so worried about destroying the franchise? Its just a movie, and if it sucks, it doesn't change the previous three.
Odds are though, with Greengrass, Gilroy and Damon, this film will be yet another great action film.
Its gets a little sickening reading these talkbacks and seeing, "Crap film." "Sucked."
Do you guys like anything?!
My point is this: Better now than in twenty years when Bourne is too old to be convincing.
Sure I'll be seeing INDY 4, but I would have preferred it came out many, many years ago.

A fourth movie would be a great way of capping off the series. I would hope this movie explores Bournes past more, him discovering his family, and the relationship he had with Nicky which was hinted at in Ultimatum. I suppose Julia Stiles would be back with this one as well, so they could develop that possible romantic arc. Who knows, just colour me psyched to see this.
-
Now you be fucking Matt Damon all night long!
-
I love the Bourne movies, unlike some of the retards in this forum. Ultimatum was my favorite movie of the year in a great year for movies. But even I don't want another one of these films. Seriously - what is left to say?

What a hoot it would be to see a Jason Bourne flick taking place in mid-America. Wasn't he...(uh,hem)..."born"...in Missouri? And how many action flicks take place in the middle of the USA? And from what I understand, Chicago is open to film business, too (thank you, BATMAN BEGINS). Seriously, the way Bourne travels, he would have plenty of country to cover. I mean, just think of all the mid-America cities and towns and even the country of the ozarks, which even includes (snort!) Branson. I'd love to see Bourne go back home...to fill in the gaps, while giving us the action and movement that a Bourne flick promises.
-
fact

Damon was giving interviews to promote Bourne 3 and saying that if the right people came back with a good script he'd be happy to do a fourth. But now that it is in the works, suddenly history is rewritten and Damon was adamant the last movie be the LAST. And I would also agree that the Shaky cam in Bourne movies blows. Seeing bourne kick ass is what makes the movies so great. Why would they take the best parts and make them so blurry nobody can actually see what is going on?
-
Here on this side we have black urban jackets.
And on the other side we have black jeans.
Pick a size. -
I'll be there if they take the story in a new direction. Part 3 felt a little stale in terms of plot, even though you did find out more about Bourne's past. We'd seen it all before. It's time to switch things up and have Bourne deal with something other than the CIA and the people they send to try and off him.

Ooo, this action is really intense so we'll film it in Shakycam so it's all blurry and you can't see the decent fight choreography!

Sorry folks but shaky cam sucks ass and if you disagree it's probably suckin' your ass which is why you like it. Seriously, what cinematic quality does it bring? Imperative? Excitement? Does anyone feel that in the middle of the action when you can't see what the hell is going on? And what's with the camera sliding behind an actors head and then you can't see anything anymore? I love the Bourne movies but Greengrass's supposedly "brilliant" camera work ends up distracting from what's on the screen which to me is like you being a genius artist who all of the sudden insists on painting with the brush sticking out your asshole (just don't fall over or forget and sit down somewhere). If it was a crappy scene or just a dumb movie in general I'd understand the desperation to raise it above itself but these are excellent and well paced stories that don't need some bullshit flim-school auteur-wannabe camera work (Greengrass doesn't need it, he's already capable of making a fantastic film without gimicky camera bullshit). I agree with others who think Identity was the best film. Tie Greengrass to a fucking chair and ignore his idiot imperative to shake and move the camera during the entire movie and you will have some of the truly best neo-action movies around.

I don't understand everyone complaining about the use of shaky cam in the last two Bourne movies. I thought Greengrass' directorial style (call it shaky cam or whatever you want) was absolutely superb and perfectly matched the fast-paced, kinetic subject matter. I didn't have the slightest problems making out the stunts, fight scenes or locations. If you do maybe you should go to the fucking opticians. Ultimatum was one of the best action movies in years and I'd welcome a fourth installment. I just hope it matches the trilogy for quality as Bourne Identity, Supremacy and Ultimatum were excellent examples of the genre. And as much as I liked Casino Royale, Ultimatum kicked its arse.
-
it's a great technique but it was really used too much. Total overkill.
I haven't seen other Greengrass movies but it reminded me of cheap TV directors like JJ Abrams taking the leap to the big screen, and failing to get rid of the fat of their style. It was annoying. And I don't need an optician: when used properly (see McT and his kinetic style in Die Hard 3) it works for wonderful effects. I'm just appaled than 12 years later they use it with less efficiency than good ol'McT ramming his shoulder into his steadycamer after removing some of his camera's mecanism. It was a casual approach, 12 years ago, and it worked better. And I'm far from the only person thinking that way. So there must be a problem, no? -
Bourne did fling himself off the roof of a building last time, right?

I'll watch a fourth one. But I'm SICK and FUCKING TIRED of these modern ShakyCam/Supersonic editing crap where you can't!see!shit!!! The sense for topography is completely lost.
-
ONLY IF THERE IS A CAMERA TRIPOD INVOLVED - AND NOT AS A WEAPON!
-
Really, what exactly is special about these Bourne films? Everything about them--acting, plot, action, camerawork, everything--is boring and not really special at all. The hype on the third film was way beyond any substance. It seems like we're all supposed to think they're special, but what is special about them?
-
for the Star Trek fans...
-
As much as I love the Bourne movies and being one of the millions out there wanting Matt Damon to reprise his role, I can't help but think just what more needs to be done? His memory came back to hime in 'ultimatum' and 'Blackbriar' was made public. Although I see a lot of potential in his character and enough adventures to rival that of Bond, the fourth Bourne movie will more undoubtedly be the last and would have to wrap up the franchise with satisfaction.
