The Bourne Supremacy

[alien amp pharm]

Gotta agree on that one, at first I thought it was the 6 gallons of hot grease that gave me in the place of popcorn, but it was the camera action.

LOL

To make matters worse, we had to sit in end seats on the very front row.

Good thing I had a good looking date to stare at during the bad camera parts. That was until he looked over at me and said "what the hell are you staring at?!"
Just kidding it was a girl.
















Honestly.

I went to see it Friday night, and I wasn't impressed.

Me too!
When did you go? I went at 7:30.

We were going to go at 9:40, but it was sold out. I ended up at the 10:10 though. See, you just missed me....and it's totally your loss.

I really have to star watching more tv. Another movie I didnt even know was out.

The first was a major disappointment. I read the books, and that was some of Ludlum's best work. The movie was barely recognizable.

There was supposed to have been a tv movie with Jacklyn Smith and someone else. Did anyone ever catch that?

Almost every book turned movie uses the book as a very loose concept for the movie line. Most movies are pretty good as long as you don't try and see the book and the movie as the same story.

I'm not sure what direction they will go with in Bourne Ultimatum since they killed off Marie.

I still enjoyed the movie and for it's purpose the book's concept worked nicely for an entertaining action drama. (Or mabye I'm just partial to Matt Damon.)

Richard Chamberlain starred with Jacklyn Smith in the tv version.

I'm going to see the Bourne Supremacy tonight. Looking forward to it; I liked Indetity.

One movie I thought was actually better than the book = Mystic River.

Velvett,

You're a Ludlum fan? I know its not great literature, but for me the books beat most everything on tv nowadays.

Thanks for the heads up on the tv film. I've checked video stores looking for it, but never had much success. Smith sounds perfect in that role, and Chamberlain seems workable as well. I understand about keeping seperate views on each, it's simply that when a book you really enjoyed is made into a film you can't help but become a little excited.

i've read the bourne identity and the bourne supremacy (and a few others of ludlum's)...he's definitely considered a legend/master when it comes to this genre. the books themselves are good popular fiction, page-turners if you will, but not my idea of really good writing.

...

Ever read Lustbader's work? The Nicholas series was pretty good.
He did a fourth book to Ludlum's series, although I've never read it.

LOL, Lustbader too huh

You really are a fan of the genre. His writing is pretty hot at times.

I hate the post mortem books attached to Ludlum. What a rip off
