A week or two back, Directv (by the way, I love Directv, so if you want to sign up we both get a killer referral bonus) was running a free preview weekend of HBO and Cinemax. When this happens I set my DVR to record a bunch of movies. One of those movies was "Jumper". I had wanted to see Jumper for a while. It's a Sci-fi about a guy who can teleport himself anywhere in the world. Liesl was very resistant to watching this movie, as she doesn't normally like science fiction. Anyway, Overall I thought the movie was very entertaining. I don't think there was anything inspirational or ground-breaking in this movie, but it kept my interest through the whole movie. Hayden Christiansen (older Anakin Skywalker) played the main character. Samuel L. Jackson was the bad guy. His character was kind of not well thought through, but overall the movie was fairly original. It was also kind of cool to get the scenery of several different cities around the world, as they jump from one place to the next. By the end of the movie, Liesl was sitting next to me on the couch, I think it caught her interest too. Hayden Christiansen being in the movie probably didn't hurt either.

Whoa, Anakin Skywalker in another role? Weird. I do love me some Samuel L. Jackson, though. I'm sure it was plenty entertaining.
Good idea DVRing all of those free preview shows. Very sneaky, Dunlap. Too bad I didn't know you had DirecTV. Brad and I got it when we moved. That killer referral bonus would have been sweet.
