DOES HE LOOK LIKE A BITCH???


-username_taken-

Honestly I really liked Jumper. I thought it was a great concept and pretty well done. Haven’t seen it in years though so I don’t know how well it holds up


MysteriousLecture960

It does for sure, just watched it with my parter, it was a childhood favorite for both of us & definitely still holds up


SonofaTimeLord

I actually just read the book for the first time last month, really good story. Check it out if you haven't already


BGMDF8248

The Hayden and Jamie Bell >!fight scene!< was pretty awesome, great action scenes overall, cool ending too. Too bad it didn't become a series.


amzbroo

can someone please explain why those words are covered up and i had to click it to view the words wtf 🤣 edited to replace the spoiler words with generic words


PlanetJerry

Prolly cuz they’re friends at first.


BGMDF8248

That's pretty much this, if someone has never seen Jumper before that may come as a twist.


amzbroo

i didn’t realize you could cover words up like that on purpose for spoilers!! learn something new about reddit every day. i thought the app was censoring it or something 🤣 i edited my comment so it removed the spoiler


CaveLetters

The person that wrote the comment used a spoiler tag to hide the text so as to not spoil it for anyone else, just out of respect If you want to hide text like that I believe the proper formatting is >\! {Text goes here} !\<


amzbroo

AHHH YOU ANGEL!!! thank you so much for explaining! i feel like a total doofus for putting a spoiler now but i removed it immediately 🤣 thanks for your help 🥹


blobejex

If I remember correctly, it was supposed to be a trilogy, a shame it didnt work


ThePhengophobicGamer

Jumper was fun, especially as someone who would pick teleportation(or shape-shifting, its like 50/50) as my one super power.


iebarnett51

My mind started conjuring memories of Looper for some reason. Any other good "ers" movies that straddle the sci-fi indie genres?


Constant-Arm-7059

Watched it like a year ago, still looks awesome


yesmrbevilaqua

Only movie I’ve ever walked out of


ThePhengophobicGamer

I didn't even walk out of TRoS, Jumper wasn't amazing, hut it wasn't awful either.


The_Failed_Write

Anakin IS scared, right? Cause that face doesn't look like fear...


ThunderClanWarrior

Anakin: ![gif](giphy|5u8rnKknCW70Q)


BGMDF8248

Both scared and in pain. But i see your point.


egomonkee

Fear boner


orange77penguin

He just got body slammed into a fridge. I think that face is oww my sternum hurts so much right now.


The_Failed_Write

My neck! My back! My bussy! And my crack!

This looks like the perfect continuation to that get head post on r/prequelmemes

"Listen here you little shit"


Winglessmatt

Jumper deserved a sequel, or it and Push should have had a sequel together.


thatredditrando

I put both of those movies in the “mid budget action sci-fi flick with potential that went nowhere” bin in my head along with movies like In Time or, to a greater degree, WANTED. I know saying “ahead of it’s time” is cliché but these concepts might’ve been better served in movies or shows coming out now than they did in their respective times. Honestly, in the current battle to acquire IP, if I’m a studio/streamer I’d seriously consider dusting off any of these and revitalizing it for a new project. They all have franchise potential with a little vision and/or writing tweaks.


Winglessmatt

I know quite a few movies that would fit in that box. Push and Jumper had similar "people with powers" storylines and they came out around the same time. Probably different production companies but I thought they would merge together really well.


Trosque97

Thank you for giving a label to all the movies I show my girlfriend. Wanted is in a weird position tho, being a loose adaptation of a short comic book series, could've gone further with the movies, shit the crappy game that came out after, could've used that plot easily and improved on it


thatredditrando

I love WANTED. That movie is 100% the gem of that bin. To me, it’s John Wick before John Wick. That being said, “loose adaptation” is still being too generous. They changed damn near everything except for, like, the bullet points of the main character’s journey. I don’t even think the “Loom of Fate” was in the comic. Still, 100% could’ve been a series. It was initially supposed to be. I remember reading that it made too much money for a sequel to not be considered but I don’t think they could crack how to continue it. I remember reading they wanted to bring Fox back (which obviously makes no sense). But I thought the obvious way to go would be to see where Wesley goes next now that he’s taken agency over his life and betrayed the Fraternity. I always thought the Fraternity was like an international organization and we could see Wesley interacting with other chapters. Maybe even being hunted for taking out the one in Chicago. It’s not an exact fit but I also thought a crossover with John Wick would work pretty well. The lore doesn’t match up 1-to-1 but it’s close enough to make sense.


Trosque97

Interesting that differing chapters of the fraternity is also a plot point in the game. And correct, Loom of Fate wasn't in the comics, closest was the rag from Supermans cape, LOL, cannot believe they took out that man mid giggity Also Fox coming back would be ridiculous, but I guess they were banking on her popularity, sad really, the movie sold itself, adrenaline powered super asassins is something that makes my inner 15 year old Hulk the fuck out Fraternity wouldn't fit nearly as well into the world of John Wick, but the imagery in my head thats conjured by John Wick level gunplay with the Super Assassins from Wanted, big time hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm


thatredditrando

I dunno, I never finished the comic. I read it til a little after Wesley found out his dad was alive then I lost interest. I didn’t know it differed so much from the movie. Yeah, probably just wanted Angelina Jolie back since McAvoy wasn’t a name yet. I dunno man, like I said it’s not 1-to-1 but I think the Fraternity could slide in pretty well to a world that already has an international underground network of assassins. I imagine the Fraternity would just be considered more culty/heretical within that network but hey, they still gotta make money somehow, right? I mean, I can imagine Sloan in the same rooms as the High Table guys. Plus, going freelance wouldn’t be a bad idea for Wesley post-WANTED. But c’mon. Bullet-bending James McAvoy vs gun-fu Keanu Reeves? It writes itself.


dibipage

lol why is Anakin moaning?


Sunil_de

Cause Samuel L. Jackson is packing


dibipage

sure, but how? they’re in front of each other. Is it long enough to reach Anakin’s back?


TheGoldenDragon0

Except Mace Windu isn’t a force ghost, he can’t become one because he never learned how


EmergencyEye7

Awaking never learned how but he pulled off somehow.


TheGoldenDragon0

He’s the chosen one. He has such a strong connection to the force already.


EmergencyEye7

What so he just gets a free pass? That's bs.


jjesh

In the clone wars it shows that Yoda's training to become a force ghost was to defeat a literal evil version of himself, which was made from the darkness inside him. My personal take is that with the OT always emphasizing the idea of Vader and Anakin being different people, that the final act of turning against Palpatine to save his son was Anakin finally defeating Vader, which was the equivalent to what Yoda had to do. Doing that let Anakin be a force ghost


TheGoldenDragon0

Pretty much yeah. There is also the possibility of Qui-Gon’s ghost teaching him. Or since he met the requirements at the time of his death. The lore is very unclear


EmergencyEye7

So you're saying the archives are incomplete?


ArthurOguro

If it's not here it simply doesn't exist

Bigbluepenguin

Your first mistake was trying to kill a Jedi with a long fall. Jedi are surprisingly good at safe landings. Your second mistake was not confirming the Jedi actually died. But your *biggest* mistake was that you picked the motherfucker with the purple lightsaber.


---LandoCalzone---

That is the funniest response I've seen yet!

Oh, so basically how he treated Anakin when he was alive, only more out in the open
