John Carter (of Mars) Trailer

[Elf_NFB]

Thanks to Planet Stories, my eyes were opened to a whole new world of science fiction and fantasy. One of my absolute favorites outside of the imprint is Edgar Rice Burroughs' John Carter of Mars. Disney released the trailer recently and it looks amazing. Any one else have some comments?

Neat!

[Kirth Gersen]

Hmmm. Looks suspiciously like "10,000 BC 2."

[Crimson Jester]

I so hope this movie is better than the last attempt at this.

[Numerian]

Looks very interesting, more than Conan. Just in time for the Numeria AP.

And it's a cool cover of an Arcade Fire song.

John Carter of Mars movie thread.... RISE

Just read something over at bighollywood in the comments that made me smile.
"When all you know comes from movies, and you've never read a book in your life, "John Carter, Warlord of Mars" will be a strange, unknown, clearly derivative piece.
It's like reading Shakespeare and complaining about all the cliched figures of speech."

I feel like getting psyched up, but I'm scared it could suck, so I'm hesitant to.

[A highly regarded expert]

I confidently predict that this will be awesome.

[Spanky the Leprechaun]

Okay. I'm excited then.

If it sucks I'm holding you accountable.
