"Bourne Supremacy" was a good story. I had some problems with the way they shot the action scenes, though. It seemed that the director used a completely different technique for the fight and chase sequences than the first movie. Why they use Julia Stiles for just a few minutes in each of these "Bourne" flicks is a mystery. Maybe it interferes with her time on the field playing with her soccer league. 
Am I the only one that thinks that Matt Damon is the superior acting talent compared to his buddy Ben Affleck? I'll bet he penned most of "Good Will Hunting" himself, too.
1975's "Three Days of the Condor" directed by Sidney Pollack ("Out of Africa", "Tootsie") and starring Robert Redford as a CIA low-level intelligence specialist is in some ways a better movie, if you like espionage and conspiracy theory stories. Based on the best seller, "Six Days of the Condor" - I don't know what Pollack did with the other three days.

So I've found the first thing I really hate about working nights:
When people schedule **** that is required attendance and don't take in to account that people who work nights have to sleep IN THE ****ING DAY. I've got some required ****ing meeting tomorrow at 11:00 am..what the **** is that ****? I go to bed at 7:30 or 8 in the morning and get up at 4 or so..now I have to stay up till 12 tomorrow? I'm not coming in till 9pm tomorrow night.

I thought Affleck was great as a younger Jack Ryan in "Sum of All Fears". I was thinking beforehand that he couldn't fill Harrison Ford's shoes but he did just fine.
