I have found the first season of Farscape on Fancast. So I have seen it. But it is not the same as owning the DVD's outright. They may pull Farscape off the site and I may never see it again. So I watch as often as I can so I can have a lot of it memorized. But I am glad I discovered it. Farscape is a close second to Firefly as my favorite series.

i know i have the first book as well ;) I actually bought Reflex not knowing it was a sequel to Jumper, and when i found out it was, i was like "shit i gotta get Jumper" *hates reading things out of order* but when I went to get it, it was listed as out of print. *fortunately* because the movie was coming out so soon, they reprinted it. :P close call if I may say so XD
apparently according to the creators of the movie, Jumper's *supposed* to be presented in three parts, which is why it turned out as such :P

O_o is that how they're explaining it? They weren't even hunted until book 2.

Very true. It would've ended up like one of those "intelletual" movies in the 70's.

lol yeah. so you have to admit there was justification for what they did with the film. books dont always translate well from narrative to visual, like the bourne series.
holy shit, you cannot depart farther between book and movie as they did. O_o the films are hardly even relatable to the books. but both were still very, very good.

True, but there was also a good 30 years in between books and movie, at least the latest. I think they made one in the 70's (shudder). Things had totally changed, but still very good both book and movie.
