Movie Physics

Why is it that science must always comment on the impossibility of movie magic? Does anyone really think that people can simply jump through space like a quantum particle? I don't, but it is a nice fantasy.
I just read an article that went through several movies and showed how, based on physics, they could never happen. I think the authors must be miserably lacking in imagination and hope. They feel crushed by the "Laws of Physics" and want us to be equally as crushed.
Maybe a man will never be faster than a speeding bullet, but maybe he can....
