Sam – who does the ‘bold’ing of these films?
I’m confused by how you define a ‘genre’ film.
I presumed it meant sci-fi/fantasy genre films… so how come Bourne Ultimatum is ‘genre’?
Or is it just a case the the films that Slice has shown an interest in get the bold treatment?
If you don’t think films like Bourne and Bond are fantasy then I need to know what planet you are from where men can leap several hundreds of feet across roof tops, crash through broken glass, while tumbling down stairs and then get up, run another 10 blocks at full face and still not out of breath and can kick some terrorists ass in a martial arts feast that would make Lee proud…..or, where you can find a place where you can drive a souped-up sporty with your cell phone from the back seat scrunched down on the floor board driving 90 mph through a multi-tiered parking garage while armor piercing bullets are riveting the car, jump out of it at high speed without getting a scratch or bruise and walk out with nary a wrinkle in your tuxedo.
If that isn’t pure fantasy with a touch of sci-fi gadgetry, then I don’t know what is.
