ONE MORE MARK AGAINST

Another example of JiggleCam(TM), my least-favorite cinematic technique ever, can be found in The Bourne Supremacy, whose action scenes were apparently filmed with a $5 camcorder and a $200,000 bag of speed. If that fun-looking assassin movie with BrAd & AnGeLiNa OmG!!!1!! gets the same treatment, I'm going to go looking for a certain director/cinematographer pair with a knapsack of railroad spikes and a big mallet.

I know this seems like a silly thing to get worked up about, but I have this thing about action movies. That thing is that in an action movie, the action should not be hard to see. That is what we came for. Please let us see it. The action we want to see should not give us a headache. Motherfuckers.

Everybody have a good weekend; I'm going to just lie around and probably read more of my food science book. It is outstanding.
