Really? Another damn ‘Bourne’ film… *yells* really! [Website – Amy Grindhouse].
Matt Damon is set to star in a fourth installment of the ‘Bourne’ movie series, in 2010.
Damon, is a man who is in serious danger of becoming over-exposed. As the piece of man-candy-on-a-stick who held my interest up-until the ‘Bourne Supremacy’ film (using his rippling man-pecks), meh would advise he chase teh scripts and not teh moneh?
The ‘Bourne’ series started out well… I dribbled like a loon when it came out (for no particular reason, think it’s like a medical thing). However, now, the escapades of his character are like kind of a running joke. It’s all starting to resemble an over-long TV-series, with million dollar budgets and pretty, two-dimensional characters. Also, why, in times like these, when the economy is going down the sh*tter, would anyone pay to sit through three-hour-long film, after three-hour-long film, when they can sit and watch pulp-fictiony goodness on their own box for free? I’m not gonna trek all the way to the cinema, in the p*ssing down rain, when I can watch the new ‘Desperate Housewives’, in the comfort of my own home on mah PVR. Screw you Jason Bourne! Who needs you, when Gabrielle Solice is getting fat and there is so much yummy neighbourly backstabbing going on? Not me. No siree Bob!
My indignance in this particular regard, comes from the fact that my brain started to melt out of my ears, when I sat through the second movie, ‘The Bourne Supremacy’. I enjoyed it, but it made my ickle brain hurt. You know, like the way your brain hurts after eating 17 tubs of choc-chip ice-cream, but in a less fun way.
I wanted to watch the third movie ‘The Bourne Ultimatum’. Really did. Just like most of you, I watched the trailer (below) and was so jacked-up to see it that I damn near went with a buddy. And then, I thought about the hell that would be unleashed on my poor arse cheeks, if I sat though the whole thing. Those poor little (and by ‘little’, I mean Kimmy K big) guys would probably drop-off, from all of the clenching and from sitting on one spot for damn near four hours!
Any poop, according to IMDb – Untitled Jason Bourne Project (2010) (announced):
Variety announced that the screenwriter of “The Sentinel”and “Ocean’s Twelve”, George Nolfi, has already been picked up to work for the screenplay of the movie for Universal Pictures.
Unlike in the previous installment of “Bourne” flick, “The Bourne Ultimatum”, Nolfi won’t be adapting Robert Ludlum’s novel, instead he is said to be working on an original story.
Please keep yourselves amused with the ‘Bourne Supremacy’ theatrical trailer below, while I pull every hair ooot of mah heeeeead, out of desperation…

All three Bourne books written by Ludlum have been used for movies, although the movies differ quite a bit form the books. Now Ludlum is dead Eric Van Lustbader has written the next two.
But I’m glad they are getting a writer to go with original stuff the second Lustbader Bourne book was just too far-fetched for my liking.
If fact Lustbader wrote another four Bourne books.
