Jumper Trailer
A new Jumper Trailer has been released, and I’ve got to say it looks much better than I expected it would. Now, I’m a touch biased on this film cause I’ve got a couple of extra parts in the movie (which was a LOT of fun, and Haden is a great guy). Honestly thought the film does look like a lot of fun.
Here’s a snippet of the synopsis:
“Jumpers aren’t anything new. They’ve been around for ages. They are born with the gift to teleport anywhere in the world at any time. They first discover this ability around the age of 5. Jumping can cause damage to themselves and the environment around them if they’re not careful. Stress, emotion and things like that all play roles in their abilities. When they “jump” they temporarily leave behind what is called a “jumpscar”. It’s a rip in time and space that has the appearance like cigarette smoke hanging in the air… a jumpscar can kill anyone or anything that comes in contact with it while it lingers.
Paladins (Sam Jackson’s character is one of these) are an ancient order committed to hunting down and killing Jumpers. From what I can tell, they hold no ill will to jumpers, it’s just that they believe they are a threat to the earth, and are simply too powerful to be allowed to exist. They try to locate and kill them while they’re still young and not as good with their new powers yet.”
Check out the Jumper Trailer (thanks to Goody for the heads up):

This trailer totally grabbed me and I am pretty amped to go see it. It seems like the action will be sweet and the story is intruiging. Plus Anakin and Mace together again…Good times.

I guess this will do until someone finds a way to adapt Alfred Bester’s ‘The Stars My Destination’…where the concept of ‘jumping’ originated…

Looks like Mace Windu gets his chance for a revenge for Anakin betraying him in ROTS :P

Looks good. Premise is good, too. Maybe even good enough for a TV series?
