Apparently there's to be a 4th Bourne too.

I think Nemo's post about that type of behavior is pretty darned accurate, with the ability to post relatively anonymously on the internet just adding fuel to the fire.  Bottom line, T, is your summary is dead on.  People suck!  

I've decided that I'm just going to be amused by them, and not get emotionally involved.  My imaginary dream world is a much happier place for it.   


I have become quite good in life at ignoring idiots.

We went and saw the Trans Siberian Orchestra (an American new age rock band) yesterday. They were good.


I am thinking of taking my family to see them. I also like Steamroller.

They get around. Just last month they were in Reno, NV. I kept hearing about them on the radio.

I'd heard the exact opposite. Question of taste, I suppose, but that's why I haven't seen it.

Taken. I really liked it.

I thought it was OK. Just. It started out well, but-IMO-became formulaic 'kill 'em all, let God sort 'em out' shootfest. Not that there's anything wrong with that sort of flick every now and then.

Some of the action scenes seemed over the top too. I found myself repeatedly suspending my disbelief that Liam Neeson (great actor that he is) was able to take such repeated physical punishment without breaking a hip or some such. And there's the usual 'highly skilled opponent with automatic weapon can't hit the broad side of a barn' flaw from time to time as well.

Sprior-have you seen "Inglorious Basterds"? I won't discuss the movie in this forum-PM me if you are interested in my thoughts on it.

Funny you mentioned Basterds, I was thinking about renting it. But I have not read much about it yet tbh.

I really like Daniel Craig as Bond. Not as campy, more intense, and just a bit vulnerable. The last two Bond movies were some of the very first BluRay movies I bought.
