Really Bad Posters For Really Bad Movies: Untraceable
Posted on Tuesday, December 18th, 2007 by Peter Sciretta
I haven’t seen Untraceable, but I have seen the trailer, and I feel like I’ve seen probably two minutes too much for this film. Yes, I am prejudging this flick, but at least I’m disclosing this fact upfront.
IMPA has two new posters for the Diane Lane/Colin Hanks FBI Hacking Thriller. You got to love it when the theatrical advertising is just as bad as the movie, and this seems to be a prime example. To think that Frequency director Gregory Hoblit has resorted to such a film disappoints me greatly. Thankfully, I’ll be at Sundance when this film comes out (not that Screen Gems will likely screen this “gem” for press). Check out the movie posters after the jump.
Fox wasn’t prepared to premiere material at Comic-Con, because, they claimed, everything was in such an “early” not ready for prime-time form. Yet 10-days later they have launched the official Jumper website, and have released four production photos from the 1992 Steven Gould sci-fi novel adaptation.
A genetic anomaly allows a young man (Hayden Christensen) to teleport himself anywhere. He discovers this gift has existed for centuries and finds himself in a war that has been raging for thousands of years between ‘Jumpers’ and those who have sworn to kill them (Samuel L Jackson). Rachel Bilson plays David’s childhood friend and also his crush. Jamie Bell plays Griffin, a Jumper who has fought and evaded Paladins since his childhood. And Diane Lane as Mary Rice, the mother of David who abandoned her son when he was five years old.
Doug Liman (Go, The Bourne Identity, Swingers) directed the film based on a David S. Goyer (Batman Begins, Blade) screenplay adaptation.
The website is pretty difficult and frustrating to navigate, so we have gathered the information for you below. I recommend reading it, as it certainly sucked me in. Looks like I might have to make a trip to the book store and by the book. Check out the photos followed by the information after the jump. As always, left click to enlarge the photos.
