Matt Damon: I'd rather play Jason Bourne than 'misogynistic' James Bond

>Matt Damon's unlikely to ever be under consideration for the British cinematic icon, specifically when he's already taken to screen another massively popular spy. And, as it turns out, he's much happier playing Bourne than he ever would be with the likes of Bond.

>“I like Bourne better than Bond. Bourne has today’s values," the actor told GQ. "Bond has the values of the 1960s. Daniel’s Bond has upgraded him and brought him more into the present, but, classically, that character is a misogynist who likes swilling martinis and killing people and not giving a shit."

>"Whereas Jason Bourne is a serial monogamist – and he’s tortured by the things he’s done and feels empathy and compassion for other people. And Bourne would obviously win in a fight."

He's right tho

It's not like Bond being misogynist-even a borderline rapist - is a new accusation. Lazenby was calling him a "brute" doing press for OHMSS.

Bond stops actual threats. All Jason Bourne does is whine about and fight his own agency.

Remember when Damon wrote to Harvard dean's wife to enroll some SJW in the university and she thought someone was bullshitting her so she had to ask Amy if that retard is really Matt Damon?

SJW got in

>having morals in fucking hollywood
nope

the fucks amy?

your a retard

sony email leak womyn who proved you can fail upwards in hollyjew

>feels empathy and compassion for other people.
>would obviously win in a fight.

Wat?

>Ben Affleck as James Bond

Couldn't be any worse than his Batman.

>not understanding the difference between a character and you

How do these retards even become actors? Are they hyper-narcissists?

Your point? James Bond IS a misogynist and a womanizer. It doesn't mean it's not entertaining to watch.

>And Bourne would obviously win in a fight.

He's right

Bourne has no fun gadgets, just horrible fight choreography disguised through quick editing.

>We live in a world where James Bond is now getting shit for being a male fantasy
Im done with this planet

>being surprised that someone with a license to kill is a bit of an asshole

Thats LITERALLY the entire point of his character you fucking liberal retard cucks

Real killers don't fucking have empathy for other people, that's why they're killers

And it's also why Bourne is a shitty nu-male character for feminist single mother raised beta's to jerk off their tiny soft dicks to.

didn't bourne have to execute a hooded man, while not knowing the mans identity in order to get into the program in the first place?

if you're playing the role of a killer operator, and the thing that bothers you is the way in which the character views women, you've got a screw loose.

Ethan Hunt > Jason Bourne > James Bond

Prove me wrong.

Seems after that whole Project Green light thing Matt has gone ultra liberal.

>Phone to rings
>Matt: s'up, Ben
>Ben: yo, are you a fag now?

Bond is a psychopath, I thought this was common knowledge?

People just like and tolerate psychopaths for whatever reason. See Dexter, 24, Joss Whedon..

they've tried to move away from that imo, and make him some sort of damaged guy who knows only this and kind of wants to die doing it.

the connery and the books obviously were, but that may have been incidental just embellishing the character - like exaggerating how much he drinks so much that doctors have said that if people drank like that in real life, they'd be dead by 40 or something.

Wow slutshamming.

>Ethan Hunt
who ?

We like them if they're cool, attractive and if their actions can be at least somewhat justified. Though that still doesn't explain Joss Whedon.

Bond is a fucking assassin for hire, no shit he's kind of a dick. Everybody who watches the movies knows who he is and what he does.

That's because you're a subhuman.

And I listed Joss because he's a psychopath and writes psychopaths. Buffy? Multiple psychopaths. Firefly? Psychopaths. Avengers? Psychopaths.

>I only like honorable and pure heroes!

Fuck off autist.

Ethan Hawke is better than Ethan Hunt.

But Smith is already casting him for Affleck's capeshit so there's that.

And psychopaths are fun to watch, what's your point? Would you prefer to see some beta neckbeards in entertainment?

If he was serious about this shit he'd insist a Woman of Color take his role

>Bourne has no fun gadgets,
Craig followed suit. Fun is not compelling. Showmanship is garbage.

What a huge cuck he is turning out to be.

dropped

>jason bourne has empathy

he came out of the brainwashed state, no longer wanting to be a killer, which is exactly the point you were making...

If you read those books, he really wasn't a psycho, but he was very much 'King-and-Country'. He would not hesitate to eliminate a target because in that world any hesitation would generally get you killed, or worse, captured and interrogated.

Been a minute since I read all those books but he really would try to get the job done clean, with hard intel gathered. Were there sexual undertones? Yep but it was part of the real game that OSS agents played(which he was basically a pile of them mashed into one character idea)

Jack Reacher is the only male power fantasy that is worth hanging around when it comes to the espionage /thriller genre.

CasinonRoyale is reasonable explanation for bonds behavior, hr even gets his 'mother' killed

why cant damon have sympathy?

You'd think we'd have more sympathy for a guy that got his jewels beaten.
