"I like Bourne better than Bond," he said. "Bourne has today's values, Bond has the values of the 1960s." He went further to describe Bond as a "misogynist who likes swilling martinis and killing people and not giving a s--t.
Describing his character, Damon said "Jason Bourne is a serial monogamist, and he's tortured by the things he's done and feels empathy and compassion for other people. And Bourne would obviously win in a fight."
