You may recall I just recently posted about how I was surprised to find out about a movie called Jumper on Apple's movie trailer website. I just finished reading the books it was based on, and they were great. I highly recommend both Jumper and Reflex (haven't read the third yet).

But in terms of the movie, things are crazy. The people involved are all pretty experienced, and it was surprising to me to find that so much was being invested in the movie. From the writing side, you've got David S. Goyer (Batman Begins, Blade Movies, Dark City) working with Jim Uhls who created the screenplay for Fight Club on adapting what is already great source material. Directing, they've got Doug Liman (Swingers, Bourne Identity, Mr. and Mrs. Smith). And then on the acting end they've got people like Hayden Christensen (Star Wars), Samuel L. Jackson, and Rachel Bilson (ugh).

If you're lazy (or impatient), check out this lower quality YouTube embed. Otherwise, go to Apple's higher res version of the trailer

I'll admit I'm a sucker for movie hype (see all the Dark Knight posts), but I'm pretty excited about this.
