Add me to the Supremacy love fest.
Just google it. There's a good piece in the New Yorker on him. He's been called "Limania".
Link? Here's a good one from Grantland: http://grantland.com/hollywood-prospectus/doug-liman-tom-cruise-edge-of-tomorrow/
It's been a dry summer but I'm willing to give it a pass for bestowing upon me the opportunity to catch Hunt for the Wilderpeople.A really lack luster summer movie season so far. I only enjoyed Star Trek, Captain America: Civil War, Finding Dory and the Nice Guys.
Yeah this summer could be better, hope Suicide Squad delivers.
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.

And Supremacy is my favorite. The plot is fanstatic, especially the ending with Neski daughter. And the soundtrack. Berlin Foot Chase is amazing.

Sorry I New Yorker is Tony Gilroy. Here's the Liman one:

The reviews don't really incite me to see this in the cinema. Oh well.
Is anyone else still kind of baffled that Extreme Ways has become the end credits anthem of this series? A good song that was an inspired choice by Doug Liman for Identity, but if anything it's just become an ode to the subsequent directors' lack of imagination. When it came back in Supremacy it was like, "Ah ok, cool." Then in Ultimatum I thought, "Again, really?" In Legacy it became, "Alright, you gotta stop this shit." And now again in the new one. By this point I find the song counter-productive to the more realistic approach to espionage (kinda) that these movies take. The song is like comfort food at the end that makes you realize that none of it was real. Which is probably why Greengrass used it in Supremacy to begin with (his original ending in Russia, before he reshot the New York one, was pretty depressing) and all subsequent films ran with it. At least the James Bond theme is something that is weaved into those films. This is just... a Moby song that plays when the end credits start. I've definitely given this too much thought, but I just find it lazy and tired by this point.
I never saw Legacy. Is it worth a watch before seeing this?

Dara O'Briain did a series of podcasts for the new film:

The shot where he one punches the guy isn't even in the movie lol. They use a different angle.
Also there's no more shaky cam in this than Supremacy and Ultimatum. A few awkward, unnecessary zooms but otherwise it was fine, or at least business as usual for Greengrass.
Are we even getting an OT for this?
Was Hawkeye is it as a cameo atleast?I saw it.
The reviews aren't lying. I consider the originals all a 9.5/10. This is like a 5 or 6 out of 10.
What does the podcast say about Liman? I remember Liman saying in an interview how he hated what they did to the character of Bourne in Supremacy.
Anyone know if Hawkeye (Jeremy Renner) will make an appearance in Jason Bourne?
Checked out some reviews, it appears having a script might have hurt them more than it helped. It seems like the first 2/3s of the movie is muddled and the last 1/3 is where it picks up. Collider review made it sound like they stick the ending though.
