I kinda assumed that the movie was weighted the way it was to attract people to whom Aaron was NOT inherently interesting-- perhaps they didn't fully trust JR's ability to pull in the crowd (fools)
I also think they WERE desperately throwing in a sequel hook-- thats why the Pamela Landy stuff is in there (and if I'm cynical, I'll say they might also have been thinking of DVD sales of the original trilogy, but perhaps thats a tad too cynical)
In some ways I'm glad they didn't give us too much, simply cos it leaves so much room for fic
Speaking of fic, have you explored the Bourne legacy tag over at AO3-- there are some lovely, well written stories over there, my fave being a Mission Impossible cross over written by tigriswolf

There are some first-time stories too,Below deck by mapleandmahogany being a bit of a stand out.
