I actually bought the DVD.

There is a trailer at the link above, but here is one of the scenes:

The guy getting chased is actually one of the creators of freerunning, and wasn't even an actor when he was asked to be in the movie. Does really well though.

time to go pick up a movie.

Mirror's Edge. 'Nuff said.

Just finished it 10 minutes ago.
Heartily recommend it for the spatially aware: for everyone else, it's torturous.

I'm really enjoying mirror's edge although some of the parts where I actually have to fight someone get on my nerves. I wasn't expecting much of this game but the controls are simple, graphics are beautiful, and the whole game makes me wanna go jump around off rooftops.

One of my friends was getting in to parkour a few years ago when we were in high school but we never got dedicated enough to do much so it just kind of died out for me. I suppose it doesn't help that I'm somewhat afraid of heights when not in the virtual world.

Maybe Parkour should be suggested to those who feel the need to "Bunny Hop" or "Crack Jump"....If they need to get it out of the system and not do it on the servers...start up Parkour and do some real Crack Jumping and Bunny Hopping....LOL!
