I like the Bourne movies, but I enjoy the better Bond movies moreso, as at least Bond seems like he is enjoying it to some extent, where Bourne seems like he a suicidal killing machine. Plus I kind of laugh how Bourne just walks around in public and travels internationally with no money and old 'secret' passports never getting busted

I will come as no surprise then, as both an imperialist and a misogynist, that I prefer Bond.Originally Posted by GQgeek
I'd agree, Bond's immensely cooler because he's an imperialist and a misogynist, and he laughs at killing people, sitting there slugging martinis, so anachronistic.
Bond's probably voting for Arnold and McCain while Bourne is voting Nader 2008

Completely agree. I love how Matt Damon mentioned in an interview that the Bourne movies, unlike Bond movies, are steeped in reality. Yeah right - Bourne's passports never get tracked, a mid-level Russian NKVD agent can find him but the entire FBI can't, he breaks into a super-secure FBI building in Manhattan by...wait for it...using the stairs. Bullshit.
I love both franchises, but Bond will always be Bond
