Jumper, invisible or the lottery.

Went to see the film jumper the day before yesterday (it is good Btw) and it got me and a friend thinkin!

Which would you prefer, Having the power of being a jumper, to turn your self invisible when you want or winning the lottery (95 million euro millions).

I would like to be a jumper but my friend would rather win the lottery cos it would be legal money and my girlfriend said invisible :/

(Just think if you was a jumper you could jump here and slap me for startin this thread)

If we are talking about jumping in the style of the film, then you can only jump to places you have already been.

I would chose invisibility. FAR more possibilities for information gathering and espionage.

Lottery then I could afford to build a genetic manipulation device that could give me the power to turn invisible, become a jumper and get super speed & strength!

I would want to be a jumper as long as Samuel L Jackson didn't follow me around...

I've not seen the movie but the trailer shows him on top of the Sphynx... I doubt he's been there before :/

Invisible, why would you ever need cash? just take what you want.

Dont ask me, i havnt seen the film or read the book, but i believe that is what it is. You can only jump to places you have already been.

WillyNelson · 22 Feb 2008 at 10:02

Jumper. No travel time. Go pretty much anywhere etc.

As for money. Go public, become a celeb, make Millions.

Lottery. Invisability thing would get tiresome I reckon.

Personally, I'd like to Jump, could make a fair bit of money without having to steal. If not, the option is there.. :wicked:

Win the lottery. The others don't appeal to me really, I have morals

Taking that into account: jumping could be good for getting to places, but I would always be there by myself. Which doesn't sound like that much fun. Yes, win the lottery definitely (it is also the only one which has even the vaguest chance of ever happening

)

The lottery.

No you can take people with you too, like the guy takes Rachel Bilson with him, and thats one thing I definitley wouldn't mind doing

But probably the Lottery, after a few months Jumping would get kind of boring I'd imagine lol Once you'd seen all the places there is too see and played all the pranks

Jumper.

"Is that a picture of a bank vault? Fort Knox you say? *Jumps*"

Then you become an assassin or soldier.

Jumper, sounds more interesting.

So in theory, as long as your wore the correct spacessuit, you could jump to other planets? I would jump to mars, grap the nearest rock then jump back and sell.
