Bourne is actually hard too, and struggling with his past. Bond for decades was just cheese, at least Daniel Craig is awesome.

Agreed, all 3 Bourne films were just fantastic. Rare thing for a trilogy to be successful and erm, liked by myself. Great score, not bad acting, excellent story, and Franke Potente *down boy* !

LOTR and Austin Powers are the only other three I can think of. Hopefully Batman and Transformers will follow!

Is that what Wales is really like? I knew you Welsh were strange but...

I'd have to disagree, Bourne Identity is really good and the other two are a good but not great although in fairness it is a while since I've watched them so I may be romanticising the first. Daniel Craig is perhaps mildly unfortunate that Quantum Of Solace had a rubbish script, rubbish theme (truly atrocious) and it just felt like a generic action film - in fact it could have been fitted into Casino Royale with a bit more discretion shown at the editing stage.

The Original Star Wars too!!!

I have to admit I quite like all the Terminators too...

Pumpkinstew · 26-03-2009, 11:35

Even the third one?

The one where the remorseless killing machine cracks out one liners like an end of the pier childrens entertainer?

It's like X-Men 3 to me. I have the first two on my shelf and just pretend the third never happened.

Pheebs · 26-03-2009, 11:38

I forgot the Xmen jobbies...

I like them too

(mega excited about Wolverine spin off!)

I think I'm easily pleased

Not quite luckily

Saw Watchmen last night as it was either that or Gran Torino for the third time, or something I knew would be crap like Knowing or The Unborn.

It was ok but I don't think it was anything special. Style had been given massive priority over substance, perhaps relying on people having read it and knowing the story a bit too much.

Either 6 or 7 out of 10, can't quite make my mind up. 6.5/10 :P
