I am not a big action movie fan but I loved the both the **Borne Identity** and the **Borne Supremacy**. Are there any plans to make a sequel to the Borne Supremacy (although I think the ending of the BS seemed final to me).

_The Borne Pathology_, where Matt Damon struggles bloodily through a meat-curtain of ADs, as a last, desperate attempt to protect his career.

Who’s directing? I loved _BI_ but was bitterly disappointed by _BS_ (heh!). I found that the spastic direction of the sequel made the movie damn near incoherent. I really missed the cool economy of the Doug Liman’s direction in the first.

Hey, there are lots of Bourne movies. _Bourne on the Fourth of July_ is a good one. There’s also _Bourne Free_ and _Bourne Yesterday_.

They were just recreating the atmosphere of the book.

I sure hope the camera work on this one is even crazier! The Bourne Supremacy _almost_ put me into an epileptic fit while boring me to death with the horrible shakey camera work - hopefully this one can just get it over with and put me out of my misery.

It helps a lot if you turn on your back massage pad before turning on the movie. Smoothes things right out.

They decided early on that the Jackal was outdated because the book was written with a Cold War scenario and they didn’t think it would play well with today’s audience.
