All that shaky camera stuff was waaay too much. Bring back Limon. I want a fourth film. In the third book the Jackal lured Bourne by taking his wife hostage. Obviously Nicki & Bourne were an item so this would work since his memory is back. Also if Damon walks they should get Chris Pine, he'd make a terrific Bourne and is taller & younger with all that intelligence & intensity in the eyes.

Jump cuts seemed to be overcooked to make up for a lack of imagination.. although you could say this was an editing decision it has now become synonymous with greengrass' style. I think the bourne series will deffinitely survive without him.. and perhaps outdo what he's already done providing they get another talented Director to fill his shoes.

If he made Casino Royale, he can make an awesome Bourne movie. Also I've seen the first two Bourne movies before becoming a fan of Filmjunk, and I didn't really appreciate them. Then I went to see the third one after listening to you guys rave about the Bourne movies. And you guys were totally right. With a different mindset, The Bourne Ultimatum was totally awesome. I'll revisit the first two and expect to enjoy them a lot more this time around. Thanks. I don’t think they should make a fourth one, but if they do they should try and get Martin Campbell.

The story of Bourne has been neatly ended and tied off as a trilogy. Find something new to invest in Universal. I'm too worried you will destroy it if you keep going.
