They sure fucked that one up.

Before you read this, read this.
Or not, it doesn't ,matter really. Okay, so back in what I believe was 2003, I picked up this book in the courthouse library, it seemed cool, it was called Jumper, and I figured the cover page had to do with teleportation or some shit. Which is fucking awesome when you're an 11 year old Sci-Fi geek, but in the first two chapters I put it down, too much swearing and a near-rape scene drove me away from it for 2 years. That's when I picked it up again in grade 8, wearing hawaiin shirts and sandals and going on about government conspircies and being repeatedly asked to remove my tinfoil hat. Anyway, I got back to this novel, and didn't put the fucker down, me and the central character Davy Rice, well, we had a lot in common. so, 2 years later, I see oin Ign 'Jumper' with an aged Samuel L. Jackson next to it, intrigued, I clicked the link, reading over bits and bobs of the movie info and watching the trailer. This was not the book I read. It's some fuckup with Hayden Christensen and CGI, so we can assume it'll be fucking horrible from right there. but they introduce some other douchebag who can teleport. Sitting there, insulted, I stewed and fumed and grimaced, much like how one looks while defecating. One of the central plotlines of the book was the feeling of isolation; Davy is the only teleport, he's special, but sgregated theirein. What a shitload of fuck, I mean honestly, I won't even go into how they fucked up some of the most important characters roles in it, but goddamn, they have some bullshit about Cults and a childhood 'crush' named millie, who, in the book, Davy meets in new yourk when he's SEVEN-FUCKING-TEEN. I may right on article about good book->shitty movie relations, thoughts? |
