Ludlum is a great author, if you like to read that kind of book.

I also would think the fantômas movies deserve being mentioned. i think they are pretty hilarious. unfortunately i haven't seen "sympathy for lady vengeance" but if it lives up to the first two then this would be a trilogy to recommend, too. kudos to doug. the “man with no name” movies are true classics.

That sounds like a fun read. And you're not the only one who tried to get by with the even-numbered Star Trek trilogy. =) Thanks for the tip, Jon. That sounds like a fun read.

Have you <i>read</i> the Bourne trilogy? Even better than the movies....and I know that's saying a lot. I really like the movies. I'm a big Ludlum fan, and I think the Bourne series is among his best... Also, another vote for Star Trek 2, 4 & 6. A Brilliant Trilogy. Great discussion. Have you read the Bourne trilogy?

That sounds great. Thanks! And even after three years of French, I can't spell "Couleurs." Haha. Hi Mark. That sounds great. Thanks!

And I heard Rush Hour 3 was a dud, but did people like it? Lots of people mentioned the trois colours -- perhaps that would be my next movie lineup. Too bad I cancelled Netflix: I was watching movies that I didn't <em>really</em> want to see. Ooo — I left the Oceans series off, because I thought 13 was lame.

"A Fist Full of Dollars", "A Few Dollars More", and "The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly" - classics! I love movies where the main character hardly ever talks.
