Past The Popcorn Ep. 2: Jumper
Welcome back to Past the Popcorn! Hosts Nik and Rob cut through the hype and break down the shots in an action-packed Episode 2.
In this episode:
🍿 A Kernel of News: We dive deep into the industry-shaking reports of Netflix potentially purchasing Warner Bros. Discovery. Is this the death of the movie theater, or just the next evolution of streaming? Plus, thoughts on the hostile takeover of Paramount.
🎬 Post-Popcorn Perceptions: Nik gives his non-spoiler takes on the animatronic chaos of Five Nights at Freddy's 2, the tear-jerking A24 romance Eternity (starring Miles Teller and Elizabeth Olsen), and the hype surrounding Edgar Wright’s The Running Man.
🎥 The Main Event - Jumper (2008): The wheel of destiny chose the Hayden Christensen teleporter thriller, and… well, it jumped everywhere but went nowhere. We discuss Samuel L. Jackson’s questionable white hair, the wasted concept of "Paladins," and why this movie feels like a hollow video game cutscene.
Next Week's Movie: The wheel has spoken—we are watching Scott Pilgrim vs. the World!
Timestamps: 0:00 - Intro 2:15 - A Kernel of News (Netflix & WB) 15:30 - Post-Popcorn Perceptions (FNAF 2, Eternity) 32:45 - Feature Review: Jumper 58:00 - Next Week's Pick
