I'm totally in line with Robert about both the Bourne series and the crazy camera movements.
Bond-killer: it sort of was, until Casino came out.
Camera movements: I was surprised to see this in a non-action film, Sam I Am. I'd seen the film before and didn't notice it, but when I was over at a family members house over the weekend, the kids of the house were watching it and I was in the kitchen talking with others. Then, looking across the room disengaged from the film, I noticed the shaking and tremble-zoom movements.
Really, did a film of this calibre really require anything more that a soft zoom on those amazing performances?
Recently seen: Blade Runner, The Final Cut. Have I discussed this here? I finally got the ultimate 5-disc set and the Final Cut is superb! Only last night did I watch the famous "work-print" version.
Okay, so now I have all 4 versions with all of the extras, but from here on out, I'm not a BR freak enough to watch anything more than the now clean and totally fixed Final Cut.
Limited edition? Okay, with how many other 10s of thousands (if not hundreds of thousands)?
