Tonight Hayden Christensen and director Doug Liman were at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology to screen some scenes from Jumper, hosted by the Lecture Series Committee. Liman introduced four clips and talked a little about the creation of the movie, claiming he finished the final cut of the film at 4am this morning before flying out from L.A.
Also present were two professors from the physics department, Max Tegmark and Edward Farhi, who explained that the teleportation in the movie was not scientifically possible.
Afterwards there was a Q&A session, during which Christensen dodged questions about possibly dating an MIT girl and going to a local party, and also whether he expected extreme nerds or normal people before coming to campus. And then a horde of fangirls mobbed Christensen before a combination of Fox executives, press people, and one security dude made them back off and took both Christensen and Liman to do more interviews backstage.
Also, Doug Liman was nice enough to autograph my copy of Bourne Identity.
