The Bourne Ultimatum

[PureLionHeart]

Bourne comes home, August 3rd. Who else is looking forward to the new movie?

I think it looks awesome. A more proactive character, and crazy as it sounds, but I love the film series more than the novels, despite how different they are. I've yet to read Ultimatum or Betrayal though.

So, who's a fan of the movie, the film series in general, or the novels?

I'm going to see it, and use my sperm I had obtained from orgasaming about the film on my popcorn as a substitute for butter.

[PantyWipe]

never seen em/read em.

any good? if so ill rent the first 2 then go see the 3rd in theatres.

[XBlueFlameX]

the Bourne Ultimatum looks really good. I want to see it. Lokos like there will be a lot more action instead searching.

[AustinBreed]

I fell asleep watching the last one.

Sounds perfectly reasonable to me.

I love 'em.
The films are quite different from the novels, though. They aremostly based around The jackel, a now-imprisoned terrorist of yesteryear.

The basic plot revolves around Jason Bourne, highly trained assassin who fails a missiion, ends up with amnesia, and is constantly either running from government assassins, discovering his past, or taking revenge.

They actually just released a box set for $20CDN, with both movies and a bonus disc in a file folder shaped box. Cool beans and cheap, it is.

True. A more proactive approach. Less running, more hunting, and of course the traditional car chase scene.

Meh, not for everyone.
I'd still give the third a chance though.

I can't wait. The last 2 were good.

Ok, you sold me. I will have Jesse (DNS) bring over the first two the day ultimatum comes out. Then when we watch the first two we'll go see the 3rd. Imma give you an internet high five if I like em.

Also, thank you for the roccomendation.

[Suntime]

I'm definitely gonna see it, Matt Damon rocks.

[Bolo]

The Bourne Identity was okay, but the Bourne Supremacy was fucking incredible.

Best action movie series I've seen in years, and I'll definitely be seeing Bourne Ultimatum when it comes out.

They should win an Oscar for overall choreography.

They were books?

Cool.

Enjoy, man. Awesome movies. And you're more than welcome.

I enjoyed the action moreso in Supremacy, but the idea and plot more in Identity.

I hear you, man!

Especially in those car chases. I love how his car is always wrecked the most. Unlike the other over-the-top chases in other movies, these show the escapee at a true disadvantage.

Quoted for great justice.

Cool.

Yes, but like I said, quite different.

Identity dealt more with former terrorist The Jackel, though the basic plot was the same.
Supremacy was completely different, dealing with the kidnapping of Bourne's love interest, and blackmailing him into a mission.
Ultimatum, though I've yet to read it, once again deals with The Jackel.
Legacy & the upcoming Betrayal, I have no clue what they're about.

Robert Ludlum wrote the first 3 books, with Eric Van Lustbader continuing with the next two.
There's also a game, The Bourne COnspiracy, in the works. Probably based on the films solely.

[Asswipe3210]

I only saw the first one.

I just read the wikipedi aof the second. Looks like I didnt' miss much. The second seemed like a shitty sequal by what I got out of it.

Im sure I will understand the third one.

Actually, the second one was awesome in terms of action, I found. Plot was a little thin, as his main motivation was remembering a single hit, except for hunting down his pursuers.

Im sure I will understand the third one.

If you read up on the second, you should, yup. I'd still recommend it, though.

Yup, that was the intro where he was floating, and each movie has a signature car chase scene.
The novels are good too, but I have trouble reading government/conspiracy books. Can't really get into them. Got through the first two, but I don't know if I'll read Ultimatum and the others. I prefer the movies.

I think I'll probably rent all 3 at the same time and force myself to watch them.

Come Aug. 3rd, I'll watch both movies over again, before I see the movie in theatres. Can't wait. :D

You win.

Bourne Identity: Who am I?
Bourne Supremacy: I think I know who I am!
Bourne Ultimatum: I want to find out FOR SURE who I am!

[hukedunfonikswork]

I haven't read the books (which is pretty weird for me), but have seen the movies. I thought the first one was a spectacular with fun action and a somewhat intriguing plot. The second one, not so much. It was pretty ho-hum really.

As usual, the previews give away way to much, but yes I'm still looking forward too it.

[Virtus]

I'm not so sure about that one. Who's Your Caddy? is a safe bet for this summer's best film.

[PureLionHeart]

Now that the movie has been released, who's seen it, and what did you think of it?

It's getting some grand reviews and attention, it seems. It grossed $70.2 million in ticket sales in its first weekend of release, making it the all-time highest August opening in history.

Baring unforeseen circumstance, I'll hopefully be seeing it this coming Sunday, and I can't wait.

[CastleVaniac]

I recently rented the first two, and they were awesome! I hadn't seen any of them before that. I'm looking forward to the Bourne Ultimatum. Also, I didn't know they were based off of books lol.

[ForcedDj]

Saw it, it was okay in my opinion, didn't really like all of it(got bored of it sometimes). But still, it was very good.

[Jefroid]

once my ho's gimme the money from them tricks i shall see this movie.. but if it is shitty somebody is going to get shot.

[PuddleOfButter]

i saw it the first day it came out and it was amazing.

[vader316]

I watched it for free at a sneak preview and i loved it!!!!!!

[Senri]

I am... but I havent seen the ones before it...

[da-pope]

It's pretty good. Better then the second one for sure.

[PureLionHeart]

Lots of positive responses. I'm looking forward to the movie all the moreso.

I'd recommend them, especially if you're seeing Ultimatum. It will help you understand it better naturally, but they are truly great films.

[inonly7days]

I'm not a fan of the movies. Frankly I find them boring...
