The first Bourne was the best but i agree the sequels were not unnecessary and bad although the camera in one of them was shit and wanted to puke afterwards

1st one was legendary, a 9/10 movie, one of the top top action/sci fi movies ever. 2nd and 3rd were gradually worse, I'd say 7/10 and 6.5/10. 4h being a 5/10 (judging from the general reaction, haven't seen in yet) is just a logical continuation of that downward slope. 
speaking of the Wachowski's, Cloud Atlas was a good movie.

Is it a bad source? Seems like a lot of facts were thrown in it.

The last two movies I enjoyed were I, Daniel Blake and The Straight Story.
Got tickets for new Macbeth. Looking forward to seeing one of my favourite leading actors and 50% of favourite directors create a perfect symbiosis that transcends genre conventions 
What do you think of casting choices for new Macbeth?
I think Denzel Washington will be a fantastic choice to play Macbeth. And that singular casting choice isn’t so bad. I just find the interviews about how they had to fill a lot of the roles with black actors to show that Shakespeare belongs to them too, super cringe. Especially given that it’s a play about a Scottish king set in a time where zero black people lived in Scotland. Imagine a white guy saying this about a famous black playwright’s work though:
“When’s the last time you’ve seen it?” Hawkins asked. “The fact that we are here, says without saying, we have just as much ownership of [Shakespeare] as anybody else. So, the question is just, ‘Why not?’ We are capable. This language and this story belongs to us as well.”

I don’t even disagree. Which is why I said Denzel Washington is a great choice. I think he actually suits the role, obviously not the historical setting and aspect, but as an actor certainly. I just find the cringe-y “Shakespeare belongs to us” comments about the casting quite amusing. There would be a lot of outrage if the shoe was on the other foot. “Wole Soyinka belongs to us” as a white version of The Lion and the Jewel is cast. Lol
Anyways, I’m curious to watch it too. It looks pretty good.
