Mace vs. Anakin

Under discussion:

Jumper  (2008)
So, just as I as starting to separate Hayden Christensen's character in Jumper from Anakin Skywalker, Samuel L. Jackson shows up wielding a "wand" style weapon. It was then that it occurred to me that Hayden and Samuel have worked together before.

Over all, I thought that Jumper was a really fun movie. It kept my attention the whole time. It didn't get into long, detailed explanations of how "jumping" worked. It didn't bore me with an hour of Hayden's character learning and fine-tuning his new skills. I thought that the story progressed at a nice pace. I wouldn't describe Jumper as a great film, but it also did not feel like standard Hollywood formula.

For those that saw this movie as another Hollywood indictment against Christianity, I guess that just don't see much of a connection. Sure, Samuel L. Jackson's character is a religious fanatic, but religious fanatics come in all flavors.
