Looks like a concept for the next-generation Corvette.

Only 2 1/2 days left. I already got my tickets for the midnight screening on Thursday.

You know I can't smile without you I can't cry without you I can't laugh, and I can't sing I'm finding it hard to do anything... What an awesome movie. I loved the first film, but I thought Hellboy II delivered a lot more for the price of admission. Better special effects, better character continuity and an excellent soundtrack to boot.

Can somebody please translate this in English? I couldn't understand a single word he posted.

I was actually reading a bit about Viking history over the past week. This looks to be an interesting film.

Since Jumper actually made a profit, there are talks of a sequel in the works. It supposedly will be based on Reflex (the sequel to the original novel). Unfortunately, this means we'll have to put up with Hayden Christensen once again.

Wow. I didn't realize that. Great job on designing the sets, wm cheng.

Jumper New Regency Productions/20th Century Fox, 2008 Directed by Doug Liman (The Bourne Identity, Mr. & Mrs. Smith) Based on the novel by Steven Gould Running Time: 90 minutes Rated PG-13 for violence, mature situations and strong language. Cast Hayden Christensen (the man who nearly destroyed Star Wars) as David Rice Rachel Bilson (Summer in The O.C.) as Millie Harris Jamie Bell (Billy Elliot) as Griffin Samuel L. Jackson (the most overused actor today) as Roland Cox Michael Rooker (Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer) as William Rice Diane Lane (Christopher Lambert's ex-wife) as Mary Rice "You think you can go on like this forever? Living like this without consequences? There's always consequences." - Roland Cox Synopsis David Rice is a Jumper - a person with the abilities to teleport anywhere from one side of a room to London, Egypt, or just about anywhere on a travel magazine. After years of using his abilities to rob banks and enjoy the great outdoors, he jumps back to his old hometown of Ann Arbor, MI, to reunite his childhood girlfriend Millie. When they travel to Rome, David finds out he's not alone when he bumps into another Jumper named Griffin. He also finds himself in the middle of a secret war with the Paladins - a group of religious fanatics who have been hunting down Jumpers for centuries. Lowdown Why is it that almost every movie year kicks off with an over-budgeted, overrated box-office stinker? This year, we have Jumper, a movie with absolutely no redeeming value. The concept is good, but like many Hollywood film adaptations, it's poorly executed. The storyline is flat and predictable, and the acting is just unbearably bad. And I haven't even talked about Hayden Christensen, who still can't act his way out of a paper bag after ruining the last two Star Wars films. Both Samuel L. Jackson and Diane Lane wasted their time on this film, as none of the characters were developed enough to peak anyone's interest in this movie. Visual effects were done by New Zealand-based Weta Workshop (The Lord of the Rings trilogy, King Kong), which are good, but wasted on this POS film. As a matter of fact, the only noticeable visual eye candy is Rachel Bilson. In short, don't even bother renting or torrenting Jumper at all. Rating: F DVD Extras: B The 2-disc Special Edition DVD includes a behind-the-scenes featurette, an alternate introduction sequence and an illustrated prequel feature (similar to the not-so-animated Transformers: Beginnings). Disc 2 is a digital copy of the film that you can transfer to your iPod or MP3 player. Links Official Jumper Homepage Reference The Internet Movie Database

I first knew about the Vulcan after watching Thunderball on TV about 25 years ago. Always wanted a model kit of one, but my local hobby shops never had it.

The new iPhone 3G is out. It's supposedly much faster than last year's model, but ?

Not exactly Engrish, but since the whole "Mr. Sparkle" shirt was mentioned earlier on this thread, here's a piece of Japanese fashion worn by DragonForce guitarist Herman Li.

As the immortals always say: THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE. Let's leave the original that way.

Going to the subject of Van Damme himself, has anyone seen his most recent film? It seems to be a satire on his own life. From what's been posted on the web, critics all over Europe have been raving about it. J.C.V.D.
