These movies are astonishingly boring.
How can you make an action spy movie so boring?
I guess they sold well as an overreaction to Brosnan Bond getting too silly, but theyre just so miserable and dull.

What did you think of the original?
didnt know it was a remake
will definitely give it a shot
It's a miniseries. Richard Chamberlain was the queen of miniseries.
I hate how the camera is always shaking in these movies.
I saw the second one in the theater and thought I was going to puke
They were good movies, and frankly better than the Bond movies of that time.
Yes, Identity was miles better than Die Another Day.
Contrarian as frick. Even the shit bond movies from the 80s are better
based
007 is redditcore
There was a time when this shit was "discount james bond".
If only we knew how bad things would become...
I mean. Danny Craig bond blows this shit out of the fricking water.
Skyfall and Casino Royale easily clear Top 5 bonds of all time.
And No Time to Die is up there too.
Too obvious
Not a joke at all friend.
There is very little here in Bourne: acting, cinematography, character writing, action choreography, that is anywhere remotely as interesting as the latest Bond Generation.
I'm not going to pretend that Bourne didn't have a significant influence on Danny Craig bond.
Both are clear reactions to Brosnan getting way too campy.
But the shallow emphasis on "realism" is embarrassingly pretentious.
As if there were no color in europe.
As if Bourne were somehow a "more grounded" spy thriller, as he stunts across Paris.
Silly.
>And No Time to Die is up there too.
Once you've shit the bed there's no going back to sleep.
>No Time to Die
What's your problem with it?
It sucks
You dont even wanna try to explain?
I guess I'll confess I haven't watched it in a while.
But it felt like a decent end for Craig Bond.
Little retread of "i'm too old for this shit" again, but theres still a coherent sense of progression for him.
Maybe I'll go back through Craig bond after im done with Bourne.
Sorry let me explain it better.
The first Borne is alright, and the rest sucked.
The first Craig Bond sucked, and the rest sucked dick.
>video game reload sound effect
almost kino
>The first Craig Bond sucked
The frick you what?
You didnt have any problems with it 5 minutes ago but now its no longer No Time to Die thats the problem but Casino Royale?
Nope all sucked. But No Time to Die was obvious bait. I mean even "general audiences" disliked that slop.
Last post from me btw your mom is nearly out of the shower.
>I mean even "general audiences" disliked that slop.
So we just lyin' now
>Skyfall
You will never be a woman.
>And No Time to Die is up there too.
It's bait. He even has Reddit spacing to make it extra obvious.
This series kneecapped Bond for nearly two decades while it's largely forgotten now but had such a profound domino effect on the biggest movie franchise around.
If you're a midwit Redditor, sure.
there are no "good JB", CR apart.
there are four (4) JB - JB as in Jason Bourne.
not debatable.
>JB as in Jason Bourne
as opposed to James Bond, or Jack Bauer, or Jethan Bunt, or Jichael Besten, etc.
Jack Beacher
Jan from Buncle
Jaustin Bowers
Jeed for Beed
Would you consider Mission Impossible discount James Bond too?
They are. Cruise only took the IP because it was a direct Bond knockoff in the 60's spycraze and a way to get his Bond aspirations out of his system. MI2 is an off-brand Bond movie.
MI2 is the least bond-like film of the entire franchise, it's a John Woo film through and through.
the first bourne movie is one of the few perfect movies. Perfect music, action, casting and story. Not a single second wasted. I guess the last action sequence was not great.
Bond movies arent action movies. Theyre more about wish fulfillment adventure slop. This board loves old bond movies but honestly they aged like milk.
The paris apartment fight scene is literally one of the best action scenes ever made. Bond movies look like saturday morning cartoons in comparison
Connery's movies aged excellently, Bond is all about the charisma. Most men just can't be effortlessly cool.

What were they thinking? This would look insane even in John Wick.
Nothing would look insane in John Wick after the fricking bulletproof clothes.
I refuse to watch these movies because them existing lead to the casting of Daniel Craig as James Bond and those godawful movies he did.
You should watch the first one at least, it's more of a european spy movie in the veign of la femme nikita and ronin than the later movies.
You're filtered hard, these movies has a special european early 2000s aura thats so cozy, when he docks in italy in the morning and take the train through switzerland to germany is peak kino.
Ill admit the 3rd movie isnt the best but the first 2 are great.
Wish someone would make similar movies.
>these movies has a special european early 2000s aura thats so cozy,
Any other films like that out? I get sort of the same feeling in Ronin.
The Italian Job, Ocean's Twelve, Before Sunrise.
Run Lola Run. 1998, so a mix of late 90s and early noughts.
back when europe was politically and economically relevant
>film is mostly set in europe
>oozes sovl
every time
>these movies has a special european early 2000s aura thats so cozy
As a military brat who lived in Miesenbach Germany in 2000-2002 during middle school, I'll 100% confirm this.
I love watching the first Bourne film. It makes me entirely reminiscent of my time spent in Europe. It looks great.
I like that it's set in Europe as well. but as trai/n/ autist it always irritated me that he's riding a French TGV from Italy to Switzerland and not an Italian train.
The first movie is good but the rest of them are fricking crazy boring, iirc the one with Hawkeye was pretty good as well.
It's like they never wanted to be an action movie and really wanted to be a grimdark political intrigue movie.
frick off, moron.
this scene secretly made her wet, right?
Julia Stiles character was retconned to be fricking Jason. So yeah, I'm pretty sure her basement was flooded!
>Julia Stiles character was retconned to be fricking Jason
When was that?
first film is great. The rest are boring shit.
i knew it
OH BABE
THEN IT FELL APART
>boring
Typical zoomer expression when can't be parted from their phone for mere 2 hours, at this point brain root is already irreversible
you dont think Bourne is immature spy thriller schlock?
Nope, in fact, bourne stories are more grounded in reality than any bond (except quantum) would ever be.
I loved all 3 and even the Renner movie has some cool stuff in it. Bond gays are eternally seething because the franchise latched into it because it had no direction after Brosnan left.
>all 3
>even renner
there aren't 29 months dude
I didn't see it, but it sounded dumb. I'm a sucker for super soldier stuff in a "realistic" setting so I can't help but like Renner's.
>This time we surely will bet bourne
>He is going into a trap
>O no a protesting crowd
I can't remember which one I saw in theaters but the action scenes made me want to throw up. Why can't they just keep the camera still
All Cinemaphile readers should be hip to the fact that the Bourne movies are woke Bond - anti-James Bond in fact. The villains are always his bosses, rather than foreign actors. He feels guilt about hurting people. These films condemn patriotism, capitalism, misogyny, violence, and many other hallmarks of Bond and conservatism.
>All Cinemaphile readers should be hip to the fact that the Bourne movies are woke Bond
best comment in years.
Samegay. Also Bond gays hate the Bourne trilogy because the Bond Franchise has never pulled off 3 good movies in a row.
>All Cinemaphile readers should be hip to the fact that the Bourne movies are woke Bond
couldn't have put it better.
first one was objectively great
second and third were meh
never saw the renner movie or the last bourne but i heard they were pretty pointless
they should do a 6th movie with jesse plemons as bourne, have him gain about 100 lbs for it
Those flicks, particularly the first, were so comfy; just make me wanna ride a train around europe tbh.
>These movies are astonishingly boring.
There's something wrong with your brain, anon. I'm an ADHD moron and I love me some Boure kino.
