Bond Vs Bourne - Identity Issues

Bond never goes by an "also known" and is quite proud to announce that he's "Bond, James Bond." Thanks to a case of amnesia brought on by a few gunshot wounds and a long soak in the Mediterranean Sea, Bourne goes by about 37 different aliases and doesn't know his real name until almost the end of 'Ultimatum.'

Bwahahahaha!!

KarmaMod:

screw the world. why wouldnt he wanna save the world. How else will he be able to LovePeddler around if everyone died

You are relentlesssssssssssssssssss


Boss, I'll have a Martini. . . shaken not stirred.

Busy_body:

I can't wait for the ban on me not to talk to be lifted, so that the OP would realise that even those prices she is quoting which she deems to be cheap, are still too high And I am still not talking about salvages or high mileage cars

Whose hands do we have to grease to get the ban lifted?

Me I want to hear story oh.

Stick a fork in this thread because it is DONE!!

BOND HAS WON!!!!

Is It James or Jason You Want In Your Corner?

Don't trust his goofy public persona - Jack Black could be a superspy. Why? He's got the initials. James Bond, Jason Bourne, Jack Black. It only makes sense.

Isn't it odd that the two biggest super spies in cinema today both have the initials J.B.? It makes me want to give my son the same step-up in 'coolness' by naming him Jim Bob (wait, that might backfire). When you break down the best super agents in cinema, you can wade through all the cut-rate spies out there, but you're going to have a final round between James Bond and Jason Bourne. And don't think we're out of line by drawing the comparison. Matt Damon himself has been regularly bringing it up in interviews lately, painting Jason Bourne as the spy for the new era and James Bond as an outdated dinosaur^{(kia, see saltiness sha ).}

As Daniel Craig proved in Casino Royale, the legend of 007 is FAR from over. So, who would win the ultimate superspy throwdown? Imagine a super-fight between Bond and Bourne in a number of rounds, each with a different theme.

Who comes out on top?

Enter the ring,

Round One: Hand-to-hand Combat
Have you seen Jason Bourne kick ass? Sure, it helps to have Paul Greengrass shoot your fight scenes - he could make a Hilton-Lohan cat fight look like the deadliest thing you've ever seen - but Bourne knows how to take an enemy down. You literally feel it in the theater, almost as if Bourne's fights might actually be dangerous to you. Daniel Craig proved that Bond could be a physical force as much as an expert marksman, but there's a history of Bonds that we think we could take. Timothy Dalton? Bourne would need one chop move to the neck to take that punk down. Roger Moore? Don't get us started. Even Brosnan would be Bourne toast. There's a reason that all the Bonds need a cadre of weapons for every assignment. Bourne only needs two weapons and they're called left and right.

Advantage: Bourne

Round Two: Coercion
Bond has a long history of ladies who have fallen at his feet, and a few other body parts, but that long line of conquests is almost an unfair advantage, so let's just stay focused on the last three movies. Bourne gets major points for romancing Lola (Franka Potente) and he has an easy-going charm with Julia Stiles in The Bourne Ultimatum. But Bourne doesn't have time for ladies. Bond knows that the fairer sex is worth the time. Saving the world can wait if you get a chance to sleep with someone named Christmas Jones. In Casino Royale alone, Bond romanced the stunning duo of Eva Green and Caterina Murino. When you add Halle Berry, Denise Richards, and Sophie Marceau, this isn't even a competition. (Sorry, Franka.)

Advantage: Bond

Round Three: Gadgets
The two JB superspies have two very different options when it comes to gadgets. Bond takes whatever Q gives him and uses it to his greatest advantage. Bourne can't even carry a cell phone because it will allow his former captors to track him. In Ultimatum, he has to buy a phone just to get a hold of someone with information he needs. We're talking about someone who probably doesn't even carry a watch versus someone whose timepiece has a laser in it. So, what wins? Ultimate gadgets or complete freedom from them? It's a tough call. Bond can use his gadgets to save the day, but Bourne uses his complete freedom from them to evade his enemies. All or nothing?

Advantage: Draw

Round Four: Evasion
If you're sitting in crosstown traffic and one superspy is going to commandeer your vehicle, who do you want it to be? With both, it's unlikely that the car will come back in one piece, but who do you think might actually use your Saturn to evade their enemies? It's not that Bond gets caught a lot in high-speed chases, but he does get captured more regularly than Bourne. In fact, all three Bourne movies are basically about our hero evading his captors. Bond is more the type to allow himself to get caught, infiltrate the enemy, and take them down from within. Bourne can't let that happen. The government can't be taken down from within. So, he keeps running.

Advantage: Bourne

Round Five: International Awareness
In Ultimatum, Bourne travels the world in the blink of an eye. All it takes is a different subtitle (Ex. "Tangier, Morocco" and suddenly he's there. We don't know how he got there, but you get the feeling that it's more difficult that your average commute. How else could a man with no real identity travel so smoothly? Bond, on the other hand, travels out in the open. You picture James sitting in first class drinking a martini while Jason is huddled in the wheel well of the same jet. They can both get to their destination, but Bond can do it with more style. And sometimes style points count.

Advantage: Bond

Round Six: Independence
Does a great superspy operate entirely on his own or does he kick ass in the name of the Queen? It depends on your taste. Bourne doesn't need anyone to help him complete his mission, while Bond has historically needed about half a dozen people from M to Q to Z (we made that last one up) to finish his adventure. Should the great hero be a loner or someone who knows there's no I in team? We'll take the loner. They're usually more reliably deadly. They've got no one to come home to.

Advantage: Bourne

Round Seven: License to Kill
Much of the conversation around the Bourne vs. Bond debate has been sparked by Damon's criticism of Bond being a ruthless killer. Damon told the AP that Bond is "an imperialist and he's a misogynist. He kills people and laughs and sips martinis and wisecracks about it." That's a little harsh, especially in light of the emotional depth that Craig brought the role in Casino Royale. But it raises an interesting point. Do you want your superspy to be a ruthless, wisecracking killer or the kind of guy who loses sleep at night after a completed mission? Bourne is the kind of spy who will cripple his enemy, so the cops can take him in, where Bond's missions force him to choose the ultimate option. In the new millennium, do we want a superspy with the license to kill or do we want a kinder, gentler JB? It's a scary world, Jason. In a spy vs. spy battle, we need someone who can get the job done. Permanently.

Advantage: Bond

Final Score: Bond: 3, Bourne: 3, Draw: 1


Of course, it's a tie. When it comes right down to it, Jason Bourne and James Bond fulfill very different needs in the world of superspy-dom. If you want someone to seduce the ladies, travel in style, and callously pull the trigger on the bad guy, you go with 007. If you want someone to slide under the radar, use his hands as deadly weapons, and consistently evade the enemy, you hire Bourne. If the two of them could work together, they'd be unstoppable. Throw Jack Black into the mix and they'd take over the world.

[Sub][size=5pt]Finally some sense. . . There is hope yet. See why you can't give up Iya lode. [/size][/sub]

Aaaaaaaah! Iya lode please don't throw in the towel ooh. You can't. . . You just can't.

Believe me I understand your bewilderment. . . I do and I am telling you that Nigerians are not as stupid as the self appointed watchdogs would like us to believe.

I mean these are the same people who try new shoes on, walk around the store, stumping their feet on the floor to make sure the show fits before buying.

These are the people who are quick to take their clothes off in a dressing room to try clothes other people have prolly worn just so they have the right size before buying.

These are Nigerians who demand a price reduction or they'd walk away, over garri should they think it is not as sour as it should be.

Do the Nigerians described above seem like the sort who will fork over millions of Naira without making sure everything is kosher?

I think not.

Logic has to win. . . It has to. This is why you can't throw in the towel. I for one refuse to give room to the Dumbing Down of Nigerians campaign going on here.

No sireeee Bob!!!

You are missing my point, the men agree with this statement. These entire thread is evidence that the statement MOST is not a fluke.

That I am not something will not make me presume the said something is not a reality for others.

Your friends have regaled us with stories of what they do yet you cut down a girl's opinion (which was in line with that we've been told by the men) as "being stung". When you do that, you are dismissing her. . . maybe you don't know you are but that's what you are doing.

I'm done.

By the way, you say you are not that way, which puts you in the minority. . . at least in of this thread so I ask, doesn't it give credence to the OP's original statement that MOST MEN Blah, Blah Blah?

Just askin'

Two ships ing in the night.

Alarming

Gabby, I was being sarcastic about the Voodoo thingy. It was in response to Ariblaze who said that the women are the ones making men look bad.

Except the woman are using voodoo to make the men write these things, it is safe to say the men are doing a fine job of making themselves look bad.


@ Ariblaze
Okay fine. . . You have what some will probably think is a worthy cause but stumping on the opinions of the women and doing nothing about the men makes you come off a bit .

Just sayin'

Iya lode, I give hand ooh! How do you do it?

How do you talk to illogical people? Just how many hours that I have spent with igwe 1 and his friends, I am already tired. Seriously, don’t you find that trying to have a discourse with them is like

You request for VIN you got the VIN. Any information you get through the VIN trumps whatever has been posted. Therefore he who gave you the VIN obviously wants you to know the information the VIN will provide.

If I wanted to defraud a bank would I give them my real Social Security Number?!!!

I mean this is just simple logic. . . or at least I thought it was simple until this morning.

You know, Mama said to me once, she said “Sisi, daughter o’ mine, common sense is not always common” but I dismissed the woman coz I thought it was just _{She does that a lot} . Now I see I owe the poor dear an apology. _{Gah! I'm gonna get the whole "You should always listen to your mother because she knows best" look" I hate that look}

They say they want VIN  to check on the specifics of the car which includes the Year, the model, the manufacturer, the mileage but most importantly the car’s accident history

VIN number is a must, they chanted. VIN number is the most important information on a car and anyone who does not give the VIN number of a car must have something to hide they raved.

They were given VIN, they were not only given the VIN. . . they were given a picture of the VIN as it is engraved on the car.

Now They are saying. . .Yeah, well the year, which we got from the VIN number HE provided, is wrong so there must be fraud.

Really??!!!

Okay, at what point are the readers of the Auto Section gonna realize this is nothing but a witch hunt? At what point is someone sensible gonna call these rabid dogs to order? At what point is a God fearing person (Igwe1 I know you know better than to think this applies to you) gonna stop and say “This is wrong, why are you lot trying to destroy this young man’s livelihood?”

Or are you lot so consumed by jealousy you’ve lost every moral fiber in you?  

Compatibility!!!!!!!!!

Ooooh I missed this wonderful Gems!

Question: Why do Nigerian men fall in love sooo quickly?

Oh Yep, it is the women making the guys look bad. . . Totally and OP just pulled the topic out of her hair and the guys responding in the affirmative are either women disguised as men or under some voodoo mind control spell by the women.

Ya darn Skippy!!!!!

If desperate is what you call it. Yes.
It's not about the beauty, it about the bed.
I a guy at work telling me the character of nigerians at his former job. Second on his list. They like to chase women.

Smooooooth

fasted words that gets u in a ladys pant, ''i love u, i want to marry u''

b4 u know it they're on their next conquest

khai_khai (m)

Chasing women doesn't mean they do not have a wife or a girlfriend somewhere they plan to marry.
You already know that, since they didn't invent "skirt chasing".

Smooooooth

you are lucky,maybe u didnt meet the once with the sugar coated tongue, your pants wld have dropped bam!!!

Czarskit (m)

@ gabrywyl
Loooooooooooool. . .
The truth lies in desperation (on the man's part). It's simply an issue of telling a gal what she wants to hear, with 'I love you' being the phrase in most cases. The misuse of that phrase has made the word 'love' to lose its value.
Imagine a 'dude' telling me 'I love you' just cos he tot I was a gal. He was shocked when I wrote him telling him otherwise. . .and I nearly laffed to a coma.
'I love U' can be intepreted as 'I wanna. . .U' (The two versionr Akon & Snoop's track explains beta).
So it's no big deal, cos love doesn't exist anyway. .

Smooooooth

i have been in love and felt like getting married more than 200 times.

Czarskit (m)

@ smoooth
I second ur post. Hence, my view 'Love is non-existent'. .

JJYOU (my 2nd Sensei)

@ topic most naija people dont tell truth by lifestyle

u believe their i love u at your own peril

pureminded (m)

This topic is totally referring to me. talking to a girl for a long time , I will just fall in love . But what have been saving me is that i never showed it . I can pretend eh , or else those gurls would have turn me to a lover boy, U sabbi how our Nigerian gurls dey treat guys wey dey show dem love and dey run follow dem up and down,

Enockia (m)

dat's cos  they fall in love with their mouth not their hearts

@ Ariblaze

Hmmmmmm, please tell me again about the part where the girls make the guys look bad. .

It’s funny to see how you aren’t calling your fellow NIGERIAN guys to task for their opinion.

How come a girls “from experience” opinion is rubbished and a guy’s isn’t? I mean we’ve got guys telling you pop and plain that this is what they do ie this is their experience ie from reality. . . and nary a word from you about that?

Hmmm?

And the “Generalization” chant. . . it’s just a way of avoiding the subject. Besides, last I checked. . .OP used the word MOST.

_{Faces the jury}

In conclusion ladies and Gentlemen, I think it is safe to say “Me thinks this Gentleman doth protest toooooooooo much”

Why is that? I wonder. . . 

I rest my case.

Listen to the way he was mixing all the songs. . . on the cuff!!!

Going by your logic, one could easily say thou art protesting a wee bit too much because as far as I can see you seem to be the only guy. . . ya know affronted by this
