It is Friday and I am freshly home from seeing The Bourne Legacy, so right now the entire world is made of cotton candy, and socks fresh from the dryer.

Everything you said.

Except, goddamnit, that was NOT a good injection.

Wolf. I don't want any more wolves unless Joe Manganiello is involved. Preferably, again, shirtless.

The downside to medical training! ALL THE ERRORS become immediately evident!

If you are there for the Renner gazing you will not be disappointed!

It certainly was nice to see him sweaty and shirtless... often.

But seriously, why did we need that ginormous Alaskan wilderness setup? (I was totally thinking about them fucking in the cabin, btw, and my bf was looking at me with the you're thinking about their peens, aren't you? look).

I feel like they could've done more romance between Aaron and Marta. They could've given more to that and less with the mind-numbing first 3/4 of the film.

And lol, right when it looked like they were gonna cuddle/get it on/maybe kiss it suddenly seems like OH SHIT I GUESS WE GOTTA END THIS MOVIE NOW HERE'S THIS GIANT CHASE SCENE.

VEINS. I NOTICED THEM BOTH TIMES. Drawing blood! When she injected them! Ahh armporn, ilu.

And is it just me, or was lame anti-climactic ending lame? *sigh*

I hope they bring back Aaron, and I hope next time they do better.

Other than that, it sounds like fun. :D

You know, all I wanna do is drool over a hot guy--why does there have to be animal death? UGH.

Yes to all of this. When the motorcycle chase was done, I was expecting them to ... do something else because the pacing was so weird.

That being said, I HAVE BEEN WAITING TO TALK TO SOMEONE ABOUT FLOWERS FOR ALGERNON AND HOW FUCKING HEARTBREAKING THAT IS. HOLY SHIT.

Yes! It felt like it was just hitting its stride, when really it was winding down to the end.

I was so scarred by that book in middle school, and have never re-read it and never will, and when I realized that was where the backstory was headed I just wanted to pull my hoodie down over my face and go NOOOOOOOOOOOO.

Well, I really meant I want to talk about how it relates to the movie and Renner's little face in the elevator in Manila when it's obvious he's starting to degrade....

That part, and the bits where they showed him before he was Aaron Cross--I legit went, "Oh, yeah, OSCAR NOMINEE!" because it was just so heartbreaking and he SOLD IT.

Jeremy Renner is a great actor playing a great character in a mediocre movie.

OH MY GOD THIS. Yes, thank you. I think the reviews overall have been too harsh, because Aaron Cross IS a great character played by a stellar actor, but the storyline just...isn't quite there. I'm super excited to see what other adventures he'll get into, and I thought his chemistry with Rachel Weisz was awesome (although I'm pretty sure Renner could have chemistry with a brick wall, but anyway).

I actually kind of refer to it as Flowers for Aaron Cross. And then I start having all these horrible ideas about what if Clint was actually enhanced by drugs and is terrified of regressing and Coulson not wanting him anymore and whyyyyyyyy would I do this to myself, WHY??
