Jump Into A Library

On my day off, my wife and I went to the movie theater and decided to watch Jumper. It was a pretty fun, if a bit mindless, movie based on a sci-fi book by Steven Gould. The part that got me, though, was when the main character first discovers his ability to teleport, the first place he goes is the Ann Arbor Public Library. In the background you see an "Escape to your Library" poster, very subtle. The library plays a small, yet important role in the film, and as an added bonus you get a chance to see a white haired Samuel L. Jackson.
