Most of all being that it's already out in theaters and that it's not coming out during the summer. Steve: All of those reasons listed contributed to Jumper not being included on this list.

Cool concept, but not good enough to make up for the horrible writing and "meh" acting... I plan to jump a small portion of that chase scene into whatever my first feature film turns out to be...just a quick blip of Griffin chasing David screaming "GIVE ME THE DETONATOR!"...

Batman- Wouldnt miss it for the end of the world Indy- gotta see it, I mean Ive seen Nazis faces melt, A giant Indian in a turban get squished, and a two timing American get aged in 20 seconds.. How can I miss whats next? Ironman- Take it or leave it Wall-E- After ive seen a rat become a chef, Pixar owns my soul.
