Jumper - Complete Rubbish

[-Xiangu-]

I saw Jumper today. I hope the coldness of the Oxford Odeon hasn't effected my judgement on this movie.

It was in my opinion complete crap! The introduction to the film wasn't good at all. There was no build up of tension and the action scenes were dull. I can't stress how much of a let down it was to me. A brilliant film idea made into a complete piece of rubbish

On the other hand, i loved it.
Thought it was major. Sound effects in the cinema made the jumping scenes at the start really loud and vibrating chairs = amaze.

i was annoyed that it took half an hour to start cos of adverts, idiots.

Jumper was a good film. I will always think of Hayden as Anakin Skywalker, though

Just because you don't like it doesn't mean others will agree, I haven't seen it but it looks like a really interesting movie and I'll be seeing it when I can

[Inseriousity.]

I agree with you (first person I think lmao).

I mean he just accepted that he had this gift... never really thought 'I'm a freak' or anything... just like 'okay, I can jump to different places. Let's move on'

I must admit some of it was good but it was hard to follow. My dad says they left loads of plotholes open so they could have a Jumper 2. :P

[-Xiangu-]

If they do make another I hope it will be better than the first

Its success at the box office will determine whether or not there will be a Jumper 2. First film = art, sequels = cash. The fact that its still at the top is a sign that there will probably be a second installment.

Personally, I think it looks trashy, thus I won't be going to see it.

I watched 'Jumper' movie yesterday.
I thought it was quite amazing.

Anyone else watched it yet?

Yea, saw it on Sun. Going to see it again on Friday so I don't get left out whilst every one goes to see it :p

There's already a thread for this junkshop film.

The basic idea itself was good, with a decent-ish storyline. The cheap scenery left little to the imagination, "ooh a desert, ooh Rome, ooh America *Jumps*", the film did not achieve anything, it started the way it ended, with a whole bunch of randomness in-between. There was to many ends left loose for my liking, What happend to "Billy Elliot"?, how did everyone suddenly know what everythings called like "jump-scar, Paladins" etc, www.onlinehelpforjumpers.com (http://www.onlinehelpforjumpers.com) ? where did they get this information?!?! Why is it called Jumping? they don't jump when they teleport, they just stand still and think, it should be called teleporting or something.


yeah well it was ok but random.

[Misawa]

Well it is a adapted from a novel.

[BobX]

your missing my point, how did the characters suddenly know what everything is called, one minute theyre like "woah whats that man, i just teleported to a library"

then hes like "omg i followed u thru ur jump scar to ur lair n den am guna go pwn some paladins *pow*"

[Misawa]

No, I understood you. I was just writing that regardless. I am not supporting it, it looks positively useless.
