It's better than Marvel's efforts by far and much better than DC's as well. Tops X-Men: First Class. Might even say it's the best one within the past 4 years, going back to 2009's Watchmen (Though I'd put The Wolverine right behind it, but it shows you how great it is).

Universal Pictures moving forward with fifth Bourne film

New film will feature Jeremy Renner's Aaron Cross character from The Bourne Legacy

Anthony Peckham (Invictus, Sherlock Holmes) will write the script.

 

Good news.  Even though The Bourne Legacy had its shares of flaws, it was still an improvement over the pretentiousness and shaky-cam nonsense of The Bourne Supremacy and The Bourne Ultimatum.  I thought Renner did a great job in place of Matt Damon, and I hope this also means that Rachel Weisz will be returning to the series as well.

-I like this thing the more I look at it. Not what I was expecting but what I was expecting was a large purple and red Iron Man.

 

 

 

- I'm still looking forward to seeing THE WOLVERINE soon and can't believe we only have to wait a year for DAYS OF FUTURE PAST.

 

-THE BOURNE LEGACY 2 ? I thought that Matt Damon was going to return perhaps they can have both....

 

-I was just thinking if they were to make a Die Hard 6, it would probably be about John getting his ex wife back no? Anyway read that it might not get made anyway....

Another great addition to the cast, although it's a shame that Bruce Willis is no longer involved.

I disagree. The Bourne Legacy was a confusing mess that is a side story at best and one that adds nothing to the Bourne mythos. Gone were the conspiracies. Gone were the moral dilemmas. Instead of voluntary assassins, the spies were now drugged up super soldiers. While Ultimatum did have quite a bit of nausea inducing camera work, the story and action scenes were leaps and bounds better than Legacy. Jeremy Renner was good, but I would rather them have recast Jason Bourne with Renner than to introduce a new character.

 

Also, just when you thought people couldn't get any stupider....

Perhaps Willis will return in E4. Glad to hear ford coming back in the spotlight building up to his return as Han Solo, he'll also be in Anchorman 2.

Harrison Ford in 'The Expendables 3' just makes me feel wonderfully warm inside. Brilliant choice, and it's shaping up to be a fantastic third outing!

Agreed, I saw the firs Bourne film and didn't care for it or any of it's later sequels. Legacy was just crap.

Same.  I was actually pleasantly surprised by the first one, but this one looks dreadful.

[S K Y F A L L]

Makes no difference to me.

[x007AceOfSpades]

The last film was completely dreadful, been there-done that sense to the plot, with an overly long climax scene.

 

Ronda Rousey, on the other hand is just an attention freak from her primary career of that of a mixed martial artist. Don't like her in the cage, or out of it, and a lot of people don't like her either. She's a rude, stuck up, arrogant person and I wouldn't pay a cent to see her any of the films she has planned.

[x007AceOfSpades]

Don't really have a 'Looking forward' list yet, but currently want to see these films.

 

Sabotage - January 24th - Director: David Ayer, starring Arnold Schwarzenegger

Noah - March 28th - Director: Darren Aronofsky, starring Russel Crowe

Transcendence - April 18th - Director: Wally Pfister, starring Johnny Depp
Godzilla - May 16th - Director Gareth Edwards, starring Aaron Taylor-Johnson
X-Men: Days Of Future Past - May 26th - Director: Bryan Singer, starring James McAvoy
Dawn Of The Planet Of The Apes - July 18th - Director: Matt Reeves, starring Jason Clarke
Sin City: A Dame To Kill For - August 22nd - Directors: Robert Rodriguez & Frank Miller, starring Josh Brolin
Fury - November 14th - Director: David Ayer, starring Brad Pitt
Exodus - Dcember 12th - Director: Ridley Scott, starring Christian Bale

 

The rest, DVD or not interested at all. Will be looking forward to what has to come.

[thecasinoroyale]

From that list there, the ones I'll be checking out at the cinema are:

 

Sabotage

 

RoboCop (Out of sheer painful interest)

 

Noah

 

Captain America: The Winter Soldier

 

X-Men: Days Of Future Past

 

The Expendables 3

 

Sin City: A Dame To Kill For

 

The rest will be probably be DVD / Sky Movie views. Not a bad year in general.

[x007AceOfSpades]

It's definitely much quieter than this year, but it starts off with a bang with David Ayer's Sabotage with the king, Arnold Schwarzenegger.

[thecasinoroyale]

Is that the one that was previously 'Ten'?

 

I'm so glad Arnie is back...pumping out films yearly now. God bless that man for delivering what he set out to do since he came to America.

I'm so glad Arnie is back...pumping out films yearly now. God bless that man for delivering what he set out to do since he came to America.

Yes, It was originally titled Ten by screenwriter Skip Woods (A bit worried since he penned A Good Day To Die Hard, but his script was rewritten by Ayer once he came on board), then it became Breacher, Arnolds nickname in the film-John "Breacher" Wharton, then went back to Ten, and has since become Sabotage.

 

I prefer Ten, it's simple and since it's based on, or more or less inspired on and is a modern adaption of the novel Ten Little Indians, It goes hand & hand. Either Way, It's Arnold and David Ayer and I love both and I'll be seeing both. Should probably have a trailer Sometime from now until when Escape Plan is released. It's been in post-production since January, but knowing that this is David Ayer and the way he shoots his films, He said on twitter that is is being similarly shot like his 2012 film End Of Watch, which means a lot of cameras, lots of different perspectives, and capturing a very raw look. End Of Watch took nearly a year to finish editing, so I'm not surprised, but  If we don't have a trailer attached to Escape Plan, then I'm a bit worried.

 

(UPDATE) He posted the film on twitter back in April, so editing is done (which is a surprise) and probably most of, if not all of post production except little things the studio does, because he's since begun pre-production on his World War II film Fury with Brad Pitt and Jon Bernthal.
