Except for like, 60% of Bond movies. Have you sat down and watched shit like View to a Kill or Diamonds are Forever recently? They make Quantum look like Casino Royale. Spectre is mayyybe one baby step above the Roger Moore pap.

QoS is a damn good movie minus the rapid editing.
And minus a few awful points, I'm really starting to like Skyfall.

This is as bad as Spectre...?
What.
That's really surprising. I mean Powell didn't dramatically change the score between the movies, but he didn't need to. Forgettable though?
That said, some composers choose really weird stuff to put on their OSTs and tend to leave out the action tracks. Zimmer does it sometimes. IIRC, I don't think the Marie death/Paz chase music was on the soundtracks either which was a big omission to me.
Nah, it was a good idea. Shocking move and gave Bourne motivation for the next two movies. He's most efficient when he's alone. That said I'm terrified that Nicky is going to have to die in this movie for similar reasons, and to make way for Alicia Vikander.

Sitting at 66% right now.
I wonder if Universal will move forward with Legacy sequel. Justin Lin was attached to direct.

If I pulled that off, would you die?
What a mediocre summer for blockbusters.
ok guys just got back from a pre-screening, big fan of the original trilogy
i'd give this movie a solid 6.5/10
the shakycam is out of fucking control, no plot spoilers but a very vague scene spoiler below to highlight the absurdity of it:
95% of the movie is shakycam

theres a part where bourne is thumbing through a notebook, not an action scene, and even in this scene the shakycam is going full blast and you can hardly make out what the fuck hes reading

Man. I've waited 9 years for this film. I was googling for Bourne news almost everyday....for nine freaking years. I have a feeling this will definitely be the weakest one yet.
Only 5% more and we're there!
No way is it worse than Legacy. At all.
But yeah it's almost certainly the weakest Damon Bourne, but I mean the other three were close to perfect for me and this can't take that away from them.
to those that have watched it, are the fight scenes shaky cam? i really hate that shit
fuck :<
fuck :<
Was thinking this recently... It's been a pretty lame summer for movies.

Yeah I guess. Its ashame though. I'll watch the movie and form my own opinion, but for now I think they should just reboot the franchise or cast a new lead which is be fine. Also, find a competent and good director. Don't treat the franchise as a C tiered action/thriller.

Eh, I always felt Greengrass was one of the few who used "shaky cam" effectively. You could always understand the fights, and they gave the combat a frenetic frantic atmosphere. Now compare that to Taken 3, and you see the difference between a director using shaky cam and handheld to cover up bad stuntwork and such, and one using shaky cam and handheld stylistically

This is me.
The Trilogy is my favourite action franchise. I listen to the OST pretty much every day.
Reaction of people so far is such a bummer.

Nolan will save us in Summer 2017.
Yes, but that was also the case for Supremacy and Ultimatum. There's 15+ minute stretches where he says nothing, and when he does talk it isn't a lot.
Dara O'Briain did a series of podcasts for the new film:

Just watched this. It's better than the Jeremy Renner Bourne film, but the worst of the Damon ones. The third act really drags. Some of the action scenes also run a bit too long as well. Writing could have been better and the plot is very predictable. Was a bit diaspointed overall.
That said, Alicia Vikander looks stunning in this. She is gorgeous.

67% on Rottentomatoes and 62 on Metacritic doesn't sound that bad. It definitely seems like is not as good as the original trilogy, but I still have certain level of hype for see Matt Damon wrecking stuff. Jesus Christ, he is Jason Bourne.

You know your shit Night King. #believe
It will be like the summer Inception came out.
Damn. Ultimatum is the movie I keep coming back to when I think what my favorite action movie of all time might be. Legacy was okay, but I never had a real emotional connection to that one. The trilogy, though, is lean, efficient storytelling with a singular focus executed with masterful filmmaking. And the action. Oh, man, the action. Bourne's meticulous-yet-improvised methodology is hypnotic.
I really really want this one to be good. At least on the action level.

Damn it at all the mediocre ratings.
I was waiting for so long and we get this?!!!!!!!
I guess I'll continue to consider it as a trilogy and forget about the rest.

I find myself not rewatching Supremacy and Ultimatum that much because I find the shakeycam incredibly obnoxious even if a bit better than other films (like the aforementioned Taken 3 and 2). It's partly the reason I think Bourne Identity is still by far the best of the series but then I also think Doug Liman is a far superior director compared to Greengrass anyway, I would love to know why he never came back after the first film.

Yeah supremacy is the best Bourne movie by far for me. Probably even the best spy action movie of the century too tbh with just casino royale giving it a run for its money

Identity feels like a TV movie compared to Supremacy and Ultimatum
Land yeah, Supremacy is easily the best of the series. Great movie. First time I saw the movies when they came out I thought it was the worst for some reason. LOL.

Did you fall asleep during the car chase at the end or something.
I knew from the moment I saw Supremacy, their was no way they'd top it.

Don't Breathe is supposed to be excellent. Very excited for that next month

He didn't come back because the studies banned him, even going as far as threatening him he'd never make another film again. Liman took that threat seriously.
Just google it. There's a good piece in the New Yorker on him. He's been called "Limania".
And Supremacy is my favorite. The plot is fanstatic, especially the ending with Neski daughter. And the soundtrack. Berlin Foot Chase is amazing.
