Bourne Ultimatum

[wishfulthinking]

I'm starting to get excited. The movie being released soon.

I think Matt Damon came of age as an actor (and man) with the bourne identity.

My blurt of the day.

It's a movie I've been looking forward to.

Hi wishful. Nice to see you back.

Hi Rob

Yeah, the last 2 really delivered, so I hope this one will too!

I'm probably going to see it later in the week. It is out now, right?

What happened to the "R"?

I don't think it is out until next week in Australia.

August 3 here in Canada.

I did enjoy the first two, wishful. I thought them much more restrained than the Bond flick so didn't lapse into the silliness that the Bond flicks often do.

I don't mind the bond films. I think of the last couple of pierce brosnan ones, I didn't see. This was because it didn't appeal - he was too smooth, too special effecty. The most recent one, I was very impressed with. I felt it brought bond into the next century. I liked that it didn't rely on special effects, was grisly (I hate torture scenes, and it was only bearable because he was naked ). But what I liked most was, instead of some hot chick getting out of the water all dripping wet, it was bond who got out - finally a bond film for chicks!

I rather liked the last Bond flick as well. Did miss the chick getting wet though.

Eva Green was soooo yummy though.

And Joan Allen made a certain piece of my anatomy throb. I love smart, tough older women.

Given a choice between Vesper Lynd and Pamela Landy, it would be Ms. Landy every time. http://bestsmileys.com/drooling/3.gif

tough women in a movie are great in general, whether young or old. I think there has been a trend in recent years to kill of strong female characters. eg electra in daredevil (although she lived to do another movie). I did like in mi3 (boo tom, but like the mission impossible theme), where at the end I think he gets knocked unconscious and the chick saves the day and tom.

Night Rob, past my bedtime and yukky work tomorrow
