John Carter Movie?????

[Hoosier Daddy]

The movie cost 250 million. Last weekend it came in second and only made 30 million. It did so bad that people feared it would drop Disney's stock.

Seems to me if it is the Princess of Mars. That is what the movie should have been titled. And if the princess was naked in the book, so be it.

Would have given the Disney Princess a whole new look.

He was naked too. Captain John Carter slept with female aliens long before Captain James Kirk.

He was totally the ORIGINAL James Kirk LOL

So I took my bride to see it yesterday, and ignoring all of the gratuitous departures from the book, I thought it was a pretty good movie.

Yup, everything I've heard is that it's a pretty good "popcorn movie."

Real gun control, carrying 24/7/365

This still cracks me up. I'm sure you mean 24/7/52

Nope, 24 hour a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year, slightly redundant, but having a backup never hurts.

Just reread the first few chapters while at the Chiropractor/Acupuncturist, and the "leather" worn by the green men in the movie is presented as pretty much the universal attire of ALL denizens of Barsoom. Would have made the movie more interesting for me.
