Matt Damon may return to the Bourne franchise for some reason

Matt Damon, shooting his “Affleck as Batman Reaction Video” series for Vine.The last Bourne movie starred Jeremy Renner as Aaron Cross, but you knew it was still a Bourne movie because the characters talked about Bourne all the time like he was Bill Brassky. Not even Burnsy liked The Bourne Legacy, the fourth of the Bourne movies, and he’s usually a sucker for these talky, oatmeal-bland extended car chases.If reports out of TwitchFilm are true (and they’re generally reliable), Universal must’ve felt the same, because they’re negotiating to bring Matt Damon back to the franchise.We’re told Damon is only interested if Greengrass is directing so there are clearly a lot of moving parts here but …

Universal Wants Damon & Greengrass Back for More Jason Bourne?

At the beginning of the month, we learned that Universal Pictures had hired Anthony Peckham (Sherlock Holmes, Invictus) to script a sequel to The Bourne Legacy, the follow-up that takes place in the universe of The Bourne Identity franchise. It was assumed that the sequel would just follow Jeremy Renner as the Operation Outcome agent Aaron Cross who was targeted for termination.

The Student of Prague (1913)

The Student of Prague, made in Germany in 1913, may well have been the very first horror movie ever made. Even if it wasn’t the first it must surely be the oldest horror movie still in existence.Another silent version of this story was made in Germany in 1926. I haven’t watched that one yet but I intend to do so in the next couple of days.When viewing a movie from such a very early period in cinema history one is inclined to make allowances. Such early movies usually suffered from very static camera setups and can be inclined to be a bit creaky. In this case however no…
