I can’t wait for Bourne 4! Bourne 1 was loosely based on the novels, Bourne 2 had a very minor storyline connection (Bourne framed for a murder), and Bourne 3 was a complete deviation in every way except for the name. I think that for the fourth movie, they should move to a different enemy. Bourne vs. the CIA has been great, but if they keep going, it may become overdone. If I were the writer, I’d create the illusion of the CIA being the enemy, but eventually reveal someone else to be the true enemy. I think that Vosen should be out to get revenge, killing each person involved in his arrest: Landy, Cronin, Paz, Nicky, Bourne, and maybe even Hirsch, Kramer, and Wills. He plans to kill Bourne last, framing him for all the other murders so the CIA will be chasing shadows. He kills everybody but Bourne and Nicky, and the two team up to stop Vosen.

As for casting, I think that one of Vosen’s assassins – if not Bourne’s main nemesis – should be Hillary Swank. She and Bourne would kick some serious carcass in a fight. I’d also love to see just one scene at the end, as part of the side story of Bourne discovering his past, where Bourne comes face-to-face with his brother, Gordon, but loses his nerve to tell Gordon that he’s his brother. Playing the brother in a cameo appearance would be Ben Affleck.

I hope the new one is of the same standard as the others :)

Don’t worry about the books. Since the first movie did not even follow the main storyline. They only kept the amnesic spy part and his badass skills. The books were set during the cold war and there was a main villain named Carlos (I think that’s his name).

The Bourne Identity movie is only loosely based on the book. The two sequels have absolutely nothing to do with the books, but the entire series of books is well worth the read (that is the original three. another writer has picked up the series and written an additional three books. I read the first and was completely uninspired to read the others).

@LORDTHYBOB… I would have to disagree with you on the first movie being similar to the first book. The only real similarities is Bourne having amnesia, waking up in the water, meeting a girl, and a secret American agency. Everything else was completely different and they leave out the entire plot of the book involving the arch nemesis and Bourne’s for being in Europe. The girl is somewhat acceptable, even though in the book she is from Canada and is a banker if I remember right. The company is no where close to as interesting as the Treadstone in the book.

The first Movie was similar to the book, but diverged to a different outcome and updated to the present day. I really enjoyed the first movie and started reading the books afterwards.

I enjoyed the books 10x more than the movies, they dealt more with the mystery of his trying to figure out who he is and I loved the way the book ended.

I am looking forward to another Bourne movie, but it’s not because I want to see the story continue, because like we’ve already said the story seemed to conclude itself in Ultimatum, it’s because I think it’s one of the most complete action trilogies we’ve had in a while (not counting LOTR of course).

Not since Indiana Jones have we had a really good, solid action trilogy to look forward to, and as we all saw, a 4th Indiana didn’t prove so well in the theaters, so I guess we’ll see how this one does.

Let’s go; i’m ready for another one. I loved the trilogy but felt let down by the sudden ending of Ultimatum. Don’t forget the golden rule here; if this film sucks, we still have the trilogy and can pretend this never happened.
