Really fun new feature. More of this and less clickbait!

I've used the machine from Eternal Sunshine to wipe all memory of that piece of shit from my mind.
As would Tom Cruise.
One thing that IS realistic/relevant was after the ham-fisted end to Bourne 3 (We faxes the files to the New York Times, which somehow means all the bad guys are going down!) Bourne Legacy immediately opens with "Pam Landy is charged with treason, the guys behind the program figure out who to sacrifice and what to…
I prefer Bourne Legacy because it actually told a different story.
"Beautiful". Hyperbole much?
I dunno, if we do that then we'll have to lump in the Underworld franchise.
The one thing I'll give the Bourne sequels is they doubled down on his culpability and the evil shit he did. The first one does what a lot of action films do, essentially letting an assassin type off by only having them kill "badguys"- like the dictator Bourne almost kills before stopping himself.
He's pretty terrible at self plagiarism. He also basically repeated the exact same arc for the bad guy from Blade 2 in Hellboy 2, going so far as to CAST THE SAME GUY, makes him look really similar, and when he kills his dad in both movies they inexplicably turn to stone.
And when we do allow sex on cable, women can be naked but not men. And dudes can orgasm but if women do it's too much.
Agreed. It feels like a dime store pulp gangster novel, written by someone who knows nothing about gangsters.
I think that's partially the intention. Whether that's a good choice is debatable. Sometimes confusing fights can be extremely effectively though- like that scene in the Knick where Andre Holland has a camera attached to his head at an extreme closeup, and he proceeds to get in a bare knuckle brawl. It's confusing,…
It's more effective at some times than others. Personally I loved it in the hand-to-hand fight in Bourne 2.
I thought you were criticizing the small scale stuff IN the scene, while praising it overall. My bad if I was wrong.
Haven't seen it, but the lack of Mark Wahlberg and terrible Boston accents immediately makes it the superior film.
*southern drawl* "Well Mr Cooper, I surely would like to help you. But unless you change your tone, you're gonna end up in an abandoned mine shaft or pond of coal slurry…"
Also, any time you're a robot fighting a bigger, evil robot, jump on its back and start pulling wires out of its neck. (see Iron Man, Robocop 2, etc)
Also super effective. If someone vomits they immediately stop focusing on resisting.
I actually think Bourne Legacy has superior action to any of the others. Then again, I think it's the best Bourne movie anyways…
Although it was maybe the dumbest plot move ever. Oh no, a reporter is investigating our secret assassination program! Let's fucking snipe him in broad daylight in a public place. REAL subtle. I wonder if the UK police/every reporter in the world will suddenly believe he was right/pick up where he left off. They tap…
