Jumper - Hayden Christensen and Sam Jackson

This looks kind of cool.

I had no idea Doug Liman directed this. It looks kinda like a Nightcrawler movie, cept with Hadyn Christenson. I'll more than likely see this in theaters, but if I didn't know that Liman directed I probably wouldn't be as interested. It does look pretty cool though.

I can't imagine Hayden and Sam Jackson will suck as bad as they did in Episode III.

It's Samuel L. Jackson not Sam Jackson!!! Grrr... :mad2:

Looks like Mace gets some revenge. Looks alright. I started to notice that they put virtually no Hayden dialog in it at all, but then the end he had some. I was beginning to think, "Oh, great, the kid still can't act and they're hiding it." :lol:

Rachel Bilson = I'm all in

shit, this looks like a great sci-fi flick. Look at the cast that they didn't show in the trailer:
Diane Lane, Michael Rooker, Tom Hulce

As long as it isn't George Lucas directing him, he can manage to be a pretty good actor.

Hey, I like Life as a House and Shattered Glass as much as the next guy. I was just pointing out the length of the trailer that the main character wasn't speaking.

Of course. I guess I should point out that I haven't watched the trailer yet. :)

I suppose we can consider this the Superman Returns philosophy for creating a trailer.

The book was GREAT, here's hoping they don't screw it up!

My interest is piqued.

Looked good. I'm definitely in.

That was...suprisingly cool. I am completely unfamiliar with the book, so I'm interested in that now too.

The effects look pretty amazing too, which is great for a trailer.

They had me at Liman, but Bilson makes me even more interested.

Poor Hayden Christenson, as soon as here that name, I think of the AOTC scenes when he is romancing Padme! Especially the dreaded fireplace scene!

Actually, thanks to another DVD Talk thread, it's now officially "Samuel El Jackson". :)

Um......

Not sure where to beging with this but what is this based on? A comic or actual book?

Either way unfortunately I don't think it looks all that great. I could be wrong and it turns out to be great, but I probably would still wait for DVD.

Looks fun. :up:

:lol: yeah, I think that was the Best Actors/Actresses thread. The OOP didn’t want people giving answers like, “I think Tom Cruise & Samuel El Jackson are great actors”. Classic’! :lol:

Its being released in Febuary. Fox must not have too much faith in it to be dumping it off in Febuary.

A book. Jumper by Steven Gould

It has a sequel - Reflex

and kind of a revisionist parallel story with a character from the movie called Jumper: Griffin's Story

I think this is still looking pretty cool. I love the whole "hunters-hunted" vibe, and I hope that's not a small part of the film.

Looks cool to me.

I saw the trailer before American Gangster. Ugh.

Doug Liman, what the hell has happened to you? You went from making a terrific indie comedy GO, to the badass Bourne Identity, to popcorn crap Mr. and Mrs. Smith, and now to this?
