10 Shocking Twists That Would Ruin 2016's Biggest Movies

7. There's Another, Even Bigger Secret Organisation Within The CIA - Bourne 5

Ah, the movies that were once so influential they took James Bond from innovative to derivative in a single film. Parkouring assassin Jason Bourne was the power-character of the naughties, redefining how action movies were made, and he's back next year for a fourth go through the wringing (and the fifth film in the series), with Matt Damon and Paul Greengrass returning to star and direct respectively. I'm not a massive Bourne fan (at least not as much as other film fanatics), and a big part of that is how each movie is kicked into motion with an elaborate pulling back of the curtain, revealing that David Webb not only has more hidden memories but that there's another layer to the secret organisation that trained him to be a super killer. By the time The Bourne Ultimatum came around, it was hard to appreciate the incredibly tense Waterloo sequence or frantic shaky-cam roof chase because it was all being motivated by an "and then this happened" approach to storytelling. You have to hope that for Bourne 5 (which was once rumoured to be titled The Bourne Betrayal) will drop that element - there been a sizeable gap between films (particularly if you discredit The Bourne Legacy) in which the real world of secret agencies has changed, meaning there could be tangible plot developments - but it'd be all too easy to reveal that Blackbriar, Treadstone and Outcome were all just part of an even bigger organisation in the CIA. Yawn.
