![]() OK, physics may not be his strongest suit, but Liman is obviously expert in the science of sequels. With hopes for a Jumper trilogy, he has already outlined a second film involving - great Scotty! - researchers teleporting molecules in a lab. (You hear that, Heroes?) In real life, only a beam of light has been, er, beamed a short distance (about 3 feet) but that, Kimble says, "is a set of completely different physics," and Hollywood-style teleportation is just not possible. Storyline: A teenager with teleportation abilities suddenly finds himself in the middle of an ancient war between those like him and their. Request or report via Forums here : M4u Forums.

Since teleportation is a transfer of quantum states, not particles, "you're not actually sending atoms," he says. A Teleport, or Jump, is when a person dissapears from one spot and instantly reappears in another. So did Hollywood get it right this time? Not so much, says H.

With Jumper, however, director and self-proclaimed physics geek Doug Liman ( The Bourne Identity) swears his sci-fi thriller is dead-on - or as good as it gets, since real teleportation technology isn't exactly up to speed. Regency’s Jumper, starring Hayden Christensen, directed by Doug Liman and distributed by Fox, follows a man who discovers that he has the power to teleport anywhere in the world. ![]() The result typically ends up closer to laughable fiction than plausible science. Jumper is the only one I have read on this list that is actually about. By this same logic Star Wars is a romance and the Titanic is an action movie. Im surprised all the Star Trek books are not on here, since they have teleportation in them (that was sarcasm). Likewise, the 'doors' in The Adjustment Bureau are effectively teleportation devices, and are central to the plot. You could argue that every Stargate film is centered on teleportation.
