<p>Yeah but he wasn't really in the musclebound freak category like the guys above.<br><br>
He made some great movies though. Last Boy Scout is farking awesome.</p>

<p>No he wasn't, he was more the smartass hero, but he was a contemporary albeit an unlikely one after his start in Moonlighting</p> -

Thought it would be a comedy. Only funny bit would be the actors, director, screenwriters and producers laughing at you for wasting two hours on this crap.</p></blockquote>

You get laid? -
<p>Watched Jason Bourne on Saturday and it didn't disappoint.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Just great entertainment and thoroughly watchable.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Not likely to win an academy award but then that sort of movie isn't intended to do so.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>It was edge of the seat stuff and whilst it wrapped up some of the lose ends from the previous movies, it has opened up a new possibilities for future movies.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>4 out 5 edge of the seats.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Oh yeah, and the new CIA chick was super hot in a nerdy way.</p> -
<p>Central Intelligence:</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Bad reviews, funny movie, The Rock is funny as fudge. Kevin Hart is annoying as ever in that annoying guy role he plays but it doesn't go too far.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Aaron Paul says bitch - for all you Breaking Bad fanbois.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>3.5 can you smell what The Rock is cooking out of 5.</p> -

<p>Just finished re-watching the first 3 again. They really hold up.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Is there any benefit to re-watching the 4th one, Bourne Legacy with Jeremy Renner? Or do they just forget that one ever happened?</p> -

<p>Michael Madsen would have been sensational as Vincent Vega. Curse you Wyatt Earp.</p> -

<p>What 4th one?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>No need as it doesn't even rate a mention. It's back to Bourne and what the series does best.</p> -

<p>Some of them...Pierce Brosnan maybe. Definitely not George Lazenby who whilst being a pretty boy with questionable acting chops was actually a legitimate tough fluffybunny in real life.</p> -
<p>I don't get the lack of love for Pierce Brosnan. I actually thought he was good and his "Bond" lifted the series from where Timothy Dalton had left if.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Certainly the fans of the series didn't really take to Dalton's Bond although I also thought the Dalton Bond wasn't bad.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I thought Brosnan did a pretty good job of reviving the series and especially his first Bond movie, was pretty damn good with Michelle Yeoh.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I do admit that the last one was pretty lame especially surfing that tsunami.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>BTW, Bourne would destroy Bond and he doesn't even get all the gadgets :fishing:</p> -
<p>I thought Brosnan was ok, but most of the films he made were a little too much erring on the side of bullshit for me.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I'm going to be pissed if Idris Elba is the next Bond.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>For the reason that is the elephant in the room.</p> -

<p>All Bonds had their good and bad points, I like Connery,Moore, Lazenby and Craig equally followed by Dalton and then Brosnan.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I get pissed off with the whole "let's have a black bond" or "let's have a chick as Bond"</p>
<p> </p>
<p>FUCK</p>
<p> </p>
<p>RIGHT</p>
<p> </p>
<p>OFF</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Is it a crime to not be fucken PC in this world and actually keep the character as he is written ?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Shit, I had enough stress coping with a blond bloke playing him, thankfully Craig turned out to be awesome.</p> -
<p>they shoulda gone for Martin Freeman</p>

<br><p>Agreed, if they're going to have a black Bond, they could at least have got the last King of Scotland...<br><img src="http://images.popmatters.com/film_art/l/last-king-of-scotland.jpg" alt="last-king-of-scotland.jpg"></p>
