Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

This is playing at the DC art house very soon. Woot?
The Bourne movies I must see at home. The usual motion sickness goes into overdrive with that quick cut method. Can't watch Romeo+Juliet for the same reason.
eta: me too Todd!

I'm the same way on the Bourne films. I can't remember a goddamn thing about them. But I'm sure they were cool at the time.

I liked the first two Bourne films quite a bit. I was surprised by how much I bought Matt Damon as a killer spy, but he's very believable as a guy who can disappear into a crowd only to emerge to wreck havoc and then disappear again.
That final car chase in Supremacy went on a few minutes too long, IMO, but the shaky camera work didn't bother me too much.
