Matt Bids Bourne Farewell

Looks like star Matt Damon is finished with the Bourne series being quoted saying, "The 'Bourne' thing I'm definitely done with." However, there are two books written about the Bourne character after "The Bourne Ultimatum" ("The Bourne Betrayal" and "The Bourne Legacy".) Damon did hint that the series might continue with a different actor, much like the James Bond series.
I have no problem with Bourne becoming a long running series for a few reasons. First off, I'm sick of trilogies, second off, long running franchises always have been a lot of fun. The James Bond and Godzilla series have been a great deal of fun and that includes the bad films of both series. Go for it. Let it be a fun ride into pure geekdom. We could use another one of those.
