Poster Post
Steven Gould
Over at /Film I found out that Jumper the movie has been moved up one day. Instead of “President’s Day Weekend” (the 15th of Feb, 2008) the release date is now the 14th (Valentines Day!) How romantic.
While this hasn’t been changed in the end of the online trailer it has been changed at the official website.
Oh, yeah, and now there’s a poster (as seen at /Film):
Now for the weird stuff.
Jumpers Will Break Your Heart
Jumpers Will Kick Your Ass
Jumpers Will Steal Your Car
Jumpers Will Save Your Life
So, it’s like fanfic but it’s a step removed, right? No one’s writing fanfic about my books but they’re already doing fanficfilms about the movie and it’s not even out yet. And, it’s pretty inevitable that someone =will= be doing fanfic based on the movie once it comes out.
Isn’t that weird?

Cool. I hadn’t realized how much the whole Jumper idea is just made for low-budget stop-motion vids. I’d love it if it went really viral as a sub-sub-genre on YouTube..
So, how do you think you’re going to feel when the slash-fic starts showing up?
And are you going to write any yourself?….

It is very cool indeed. You’re practically viral!
Steve, this isn’t a post about Pride, is it?

It makes perfect sense to open the film on February 14th.
Because if you’re with the one you love on Valentine’s Day . . . of course you’re going to Jump ‘er.

Hahaha, I loved the parody with the teenagers. It was awesome! They should make more of that.
