[Closed] The Bourne Trilogy!!

great films, great books - first time (as well as the LOTR trilogy) tat i felt a film trilogy came close to the books. having said that, i cant think of another trilogy that bears this out.

i think i'm trying to say, yes, great books, great films.

Sad i know but home alone

I agree. Home alone is the best trilogy out there...

I thought they were pants. Police Academy was better. And how many times does he change gear in that car chase in Russia?

I'm home alone too, and ahve just realised my fave movies were lent to my niece's boyfriend. Pah really wanted to watch Apocalypse Now or Blade Runner 🙄

Bourne trilogy is really good.

the books aren't very close to the film with bourne though, nothing like the same. still great.

Lol at bethel 🙂

Haha you are joking....right?

Well joking about police academy but they did nothing for me at all. Mrs mastiles loves them so I have watched them all but just don't get on with them ( and normally love the genre).

LOTR trilogy - brilliant but not as good as the books.

Bourne trilogy - better in film because IMO the books had far too much faff in them.

I should add that the the third Bourne film is ****ing brilliant as an action film.

Loved the first film, hated the other two. Not because of the plot, but because the director seemed to have some form of Parkinson's disease. Yes I guess it is trendy to do that kind of style but they could have stopped the cameraman from having a w@nk every ****ing time he was holding the camera!

love these films, the rooftop chase scene in Ultimatum is awesome, so intense

The fourth film is rumoured to be out in 2011: http://www.imdb.com/news/ni0709498/

I read all three of the original Bourne books in a single weekend way back in 1985 - just couldn't put them down.

now I thought the second film was the best. Not read the books though but they're on my list now.

AdamW best description ever! Agree, loved the trilogy didn't like the shaky camera nonsense.

4th film eh? Hope they don't ruin the series by going 1 film too far.

has everyone forgotten diehard 1.2.3
(let's not mention 4)

Yup, love the the bourne trilogy aswell, probably the best fight scenes in any action films (note how the new bond is suspiciously more bourne like) and love the way it was filmed! That fight he has with the other agent in the agents house (where he puts a magazine in the toaster and turns the gas on) is fantastic!
