>lets have the ambush in the middle of the city with multiple escape routes for the package instead of along the road with cliffs bordering ones side, and jagged drop on the otherWhat were they thinking?>accidentally posted in /ck/lel
They were playing it by ear because he would not DRAW IT AGAIN
What's in the case? Is it heavy, is it explosive, is it chained to some unlucky bloke's wrist? If it's gonna be amateur night, I want a hundred thousand dollars, I want it up front, I want it in a bank account, I want another hundred thousand when you get the case. fuck, every line in this movie is gold

What do you guys think was in the suitcase?
>>62523400Probably a MacGuffin, but I don't remember.
>>62523400The Irish wanted it as did the Russians, it was being sold by an unnamed third party. It fits a decently sized case. They are in France. It's not shit to make a dirty bomb or the CIA would care, and there would be English agents after it if the IRA wanted it. Interpol would also likely be in on it (which is what I thought Vincent was on my first watch). So my guess is that it is blackmail material of some kind.
>>62523756>It's not shit to make a dirty bomb or the CIA would careThe CIA did care anon. I rewatched it last week and DeNiro links up with his CIA buddy at the end, he never left.
>>62523938They were after Seamus, that why he was under cover. Did you just ignore the Vincent being interpol, I thought Larry was the only legit merc in the group and the rest were spooks or spence.
>>62519510>along the roadwas where the original ambush was supposed to be, they botched itfrom there they were winging it until the final shootout>>62521844kek>>62523400blackmail material that could have torpedoed the peace talks>>62524303Sean Bean was a wannabe pretending to be ex-spookLarry was a criminal getaway driverJean Reno was a fixer on the fringe of the spook communityGregor was ex-spook, implied Warpact or Finnde Niro was supposed ex-spook but actually still CIAthe movie is called Ronin because the background is about ex-spooks wandering around doing petty heists like this in the bleak aimless self-destructive "what now?" atmosphere in the aftermath of the Berlin Wallthat's the entire point of the scene with Michael Lonsdale's character (also implied ex-spook) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wPg6D9D_GW4I love this movie like you wouldn't believe>>62519663>every line in this movie is gold"seven fat years, and seven lean years"
>>62524369>Gregor was ex-spook, implied Warpact or FinnI just assumed he was ex-Stasi, based on his telecomms expertise.
>>62524518He and De Niro drop little hints here and there about having been on opposite sides, and of course the Russians know him, but he wasn't referred to as Russian himselfCoupled with Skarsgard's Scandi background it can be presumed he was Baltic Soviet or Finn, but not Russian
>tfw no 17L with Bushnell Holosight
>>62524681
>>62524518>>62524635Gregor is an East German and ex-KGB, Vincent says so when he asks Michael Lonsdale for help finding him in Paris (or at least that’s what Vincent thinks).
>>62524746they went looking for the Russians, not Gregor, and Vincent looked up his underworld contact in a garage

>>62523400The same thing that was in Pulp Fiction.
>>62523400>What do you guys think was in the suitcase?I thought it was clear that it was nuclear. Possibly just material rather than a bomb.Vincent is there as CIA trying to retrieve it while posing as a merc hired to steal it.
>>62525509>VincentI mean Sam.
>>62524846I really hated the 2nd Bourne film. I'm not sure I want to watch the 3rd.The first is a spy thriller with ambiguous motives, and the second is a generic action movie with obvious bad guys.
>>62524681We've gone backwards in pistol sights. Frame-mounts were always the way to go.
>>62525526the third finishes the plot of the secondthe first was the best of course, particularly when it first dropped and shakycam quickcut action was an innovation that blew us away (at the time). contrast it against even Ronin, considered quite thrilling and action-packed, but pretty conventional camerawork at the timeif you didn't care for the second you might not appreciate the third. I did, because I was invested in the plot of the second.
>>62521955Two shades of blue, Oxford and Cambridge
>>62525591I liked the ambiguity of the first. An assassination program is what the CIA would do and there's the motifs of sacrifice and duty and how they no longer applied to Jason Bourne because of his amnesia. Also the characters are on the back foot the entire movie, being chased.Now all that's gone. Here comes Matt Damon superbadass who has to take down the obviously immoral and corrupt secret assassination program because obviously the good guys would never do that sort of thing. It was just dull and predictable; a prime example of Hollywood ruining a good thing.
>>62524805Rambo, but only the first one.
>>62525628I liked the Bourne legacy, I think it's the second best
>>62525628>An assassination program is what the CIA would dono, not even at the height of the Cold Warit's what Mossad and KGB/FSB doso in terms of realism, for me, I find the first most Hollywoodesque (coupled with the soap-tier trope of amnesia), and the second and third a very tiny bit more believable
>>62519510>accidentally posted in /ck/you fucked up again, >>>/tv/ is that way
>>62526781>NO NO THE WHOLESOME CHUNGUS CIA WOULD NEVER ASSASSINATE SOMEONE >Plans false flag terrorist events against civilians to justify invading Cuba
>>62526869>PlansYour mother planned to abort you, but didn't actually abort youbig difference
>>62526781the mossad and cia have the same interests
>>62527189yes, but markedly different methodsI fucking wish they'd blown up a thousand pagers in Russia...
I like how Vincent just uses a beretta the entire time, Sam has a minimi but this 15 round 9mm is good enough for the cleaner
>>62528711>what weapon dyou favoureh it's a toolbox1911>later on>SIG 551>HK69 grenade launcher>LAW>a fucking Minimisneaky fucking bastard

>>62526781lol >CIA/FBI literally has a president assassinatedONLY THE BAD GUYS ON TV WOULD DO THAT, NOT OUR OWN CORRUPT GOV.>lol
>>62529007Yeah, they have the real life Jason Bourne in custody right now, lol
>>62529014if that was his sanctioned hit that guys brains would be splattered over the road like crooks out in pa. cia method is use a patsy for the hit and then kill them immediately

>>62533605Thanks now I'm sitting on the toilet, taking a shit, with a boner. I hope you're happy.
>>62533533>>62533605She's she's too flat to look good slightly chubby, I think she's very cute but she looks better clothed.
>>62534649She can suck my cock with clothes on, I don't see a problem
>>62519510Mid movie. Wooden action-driven plot with no real character development. Could have been good. Also de Niro unironically sucks in every movie he's in except godfather and maybe a couple others. And they don't even fixate on the guns enough to make it on the /k/ino list
>>62524932>Julia StilesIf it's all the same to you, I'll take Natascha.
>>62536894lookswise meh but her Irish accent makes my pp hard
>>62524369>that's the entire point of the scene with Michael Lonsdale's characterAnd that scene is always cut out for ads when they air the movie on TV. It's the difference between understanding/not understanding Sam's motivation for all the people who don't know the story of the 47 Ronin.
>>62536686>And they don't even fixate on the guns enough to make it on the /k/ino listIt's more of an /o/ move than /k/.
>>62537069The guns are there though, and the attention to detail is spot on
