Jason Bourne or James Bond. Go.

Bond, because he just shoots attackers, regularly has a car that could go toe-to-toe with a tank, and because he does not have any human weaknesses and knows everything.

James Bond. Jason Bourne just explodes things and smashes cars up, James Bond does it with a tux and finesse.

Jason Bourne is a little too... emotional. He doesn't have the style that James Bond has.

Bourne could fuck Bond up, if that counts.

Illya Kuryakin still pwns, though.

I disagree.

Bourne could fuck Bond up, if that counts.

After 47 years Bond still has the appearance and fitness of a man in early middle age, and he beat up Jaws once, so I doubt Bourne could beat him up.

Bourne's not a spy, he's an assassin. Major difference. Bond, for all the people he's killed, isn't out to kill people per se.

I think in at least some of his missions he sets out to kill people. Robert Carlyle's character in the World is Not Enough springs to mind.

Me on Facebook.

You know, I made this exact same thread once.

So did MGM, who found firmly in favour of Bourne. Hence: Casino Royale.

Anyways, as I was saying (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a5_48RQha9U)...

Intrepid.

Bourne: "Heeyaaw!"

Bond: *machine guns Bourne, then runs him over with titanium car.*

Illya Kuryakin still pwns, though.

*stamp of approval*

He generally is, actually. In just about every film or book, he saves everyone by killing the villain (though probably after disarming a bomb or two).

That's just literary convenience, though. His mission is hardly ever "go kill Mr. X. Badguy." His mission is usually "go stop Mr. X Badguy's evil plan of evil." Killing the bad guy is just a nice way of wrapping up lose ends.

Bourne, on the other hand, is specifically assigned to kill people. I haven't read all the books, just the trilogy, but I can't recall any mention of Bourne doing anything other than asasssinating people.

James Bond went to kill The Man with the Golden Gun, aka Dracula. And succeeded.

And getting laid a couple of times by real hotties. Never forget that.

The only one who can call and raise James Bond is Austin Powers.

Bond, of course, but he's no Sidney Reilly (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sidney_Reilly), you know.

Depends on the mission. For gathering intelligence, Bond. He's slicker and way more subtle. Double points if a woman knows the information.

If the mission involves sabotage or killing, Bourne. His combat skills are second to none, and he can adapt to circumstances much faster than Bond.

The two would actually work well together. James Bond and Jason Bourne would form a lethal team.

I dont recall Bourne having superhuman amounts of sex with attractive foreign women throughout his entire career. Clearly this makes Bond superior.

And yet you voted for Bourne! :eek2:

Wait...I did?


Fuck!

Bourne is just so ... conflicted (at least in the movies). Bond never was.

bourne could fuck bond up, if that counts.

qft

But this one trumps them all

JB = Jack Bauer?

Ethan Hunt, duh, he has the Xenthuians on his side!

Bourne's not a spy, he's an assassin. Major difference. Bond, for all the people he's killed, isn't out to kill people per se.

Although with the whole 'license to kill' thing just blowing up the secret volcano base is much faster and easier than......anything else, really.

Sean Connery

After 47 years Bond still has the appearance and fitness of a man in early middle age, and he beat up Jaws once, so I doubt Bourne could beat him up.
which movie did he 'beat up Jaws'? He repeatedly escaped Jaws, but never 'beat him up.'

er... "Licence to KILL"

my vote goes to Micheal Westen (http://www.usanetwork.com/series/burnnotice/theshow/characterprofiles/michael/index.html)

No Government support, no fancy gadgets, no budget... yet he still kicks ass. and does it in a way where even the Law can't touch him.

er... "Licence to KILL"

Having a license to drive doesn't mean you drive for a living ;)

If that license is a CDL it does.

but a licence to kill opens up assassination missions. making the '00' assasssins as well.

Not necessarily, in MS you need one to drive a Schoolbus, yet, your primary profession can easily be anything else..

Bond is clearly the winner because he gets more sex than Bourne. What good is being bad-ass if nobody wants to have sex with you?

And yes, I would say Austin Powers pwns both because he has fun doing his job, gets laid doing his job, parties doing his job, and does his job in a velvet suit that seems magically not to chafe.

Oh, I forgot him. *remembers him* Yeah...

He is definitely the most fuckable spy out there, and that makes him best, imo. *nods*

Harry Palmer

Ya, but who cares about Mississippi?

Ya, but who cares about Missiouri?

No one cares about "Missiouri" I assume people in Missouri care about Missouri, abbreviated MO...


However, I was referencing Mississippi, which uses the abbreviation MS...

James Bond of course.

Mr. Bean duh

Bond averts nuclear wars, saves the global monetary supply, prevents the overthrow of various governments, saves space shuttles and space stations from disaster, uncovers international conspiracies, etc. Bourne wangsts out about his past and his girlfriend and how some government conspiracy or other is always trying to kill him.

Bond has been played by Sean Connery and Daniel Craig. Bourne got ... Matt Damon.

I could go on. Bond is the hands down winner forever and ever and ever.

The only advantage Jason Bourne has is maybe if it was unarmed combat. His martial arts skill appear to better. No one beats bond with a gun.

I always get MS and MO confused. My bad. I'll edit my post accordingly
