Bourne Ultimatum

Worth going to theatre to see or wait for it to hit the movie channel?

Last time I went to the movies a medium popcorn and coke cost more than the ticket price.

That was for The Black Dahlia.........I walked out halfway through.

Saw this yesterday and it was great. Took my own bottle of coke in though, as the drinks and nosh are a rip off.

Is it no longer possible to sit through 90 minutes of entertainment without stuffing ones face? No wonder we are collectively a bunch of fat bastards & getting worse in this country. BTW, the book of the Black Dahlia is a fantastic page turner, got through six bags of m&m's reading it...

Also went to see it last night. A bit cliched - car chase, bike chase, chase on foot, chase on foot with scared woman etc, etc. And totally humourless. Had seen an article on the Beeb website trying to stir up discussion with a comparison between Bourne & Bond. I'd say they are both excellent, but Bond wins it for me with the humour, Bourne just takes itself rather too seriously.

I often wonder if they recycle all the popcorn that is left in the cinema at the end of a movie. It tastes like they do

It's an old habit going back to childhood and drive-in movies. The occasional hot dog as well. Do you still have drive-ins in Texas? Mostly a lost tradition these days, three B or C movies for a cheap price, possibly a chilly evening and a sleepy drive home.

Seen the first two, and heard a review of this one on the radio yesterday- sounds like its worth seeing.

Can never forgive them for killing off Franka Potenta*() 10 mins into the 2nd episode though
