When this movie comes out, I'm going to see it!!! I read the John Carter of Mars Novels, and Pelucidar, and Journey to the center of the earth, etc. Never a dull moment.
@Sheodon actualy he first appered in short tales serialized as Under the Moons of Mars in the February to July 1912 issues of the magazine All-Story. so basically the film will be lunched 100 years after the books.
Looks epic and true to the books... Only a couple observations... The martians in the books were red, white, yellow and black... Dejah Thoris has red tattoos, but she is not "Red" I am hoping that all the races are not just considered that color based on the color of thier tattoos. The green man "Tars Tarkas?" looked really well done but not quite as large or menacing as I imagined... John's leaping skill was shown off and it looked totally realistic... Looks very promising...
trailers especially teasers are only ment to give a synopsis so no matter the genre of the movie of course it'll look over hyped or seen that before some movies can be hard to promote if the story is awkwardly marketable or something unfamiliar its so easy to market James Bond or Freddy Kreuger but sometimes the movies that dont come across as blockbuster familiar are usually are the ones that get judged the quickest ive never heard negative comments on a Harry Potter trailer ..
@SeaDickey in Edgar Rice Burroughs own words "they are of a reddish COPPER color" the red tattoos are an apology for actually following Eds instructions on what color the race should be
By the way , did anyone of you read book which the film was maked??? i think you´re not.The writter who wrote this novel wrote also Tarzan.Maybe the anothers movies just like Prince of Persia and Legend of Zelda was taking just inspiration???
@Sheodon My bad, I guess I missed that, I hope this will be better than Pof P and Lof Z, Actually I never did see either because they were movies based on freaking video games, On the other hand John Carter IS CLASSIC, Iike the movie " Robinson Caruso on Mars " starring Tab Hunter.
Can anyone tell me they didn't name this A Princess of Mars, like the book that this film is based on? Naming it John Carter in my opinion, is kind of stupid, considering that this movie is probably wanting to start a franchise with this and so it'll probably want to adapt the other John Carter books too. Surely naming the movie "A Princess of Mars", or even "John Carter and the Princess of Mars" would be a better title for a film that's going to start a series of John Carter movies, right?
@Sheodon You are foolish if you think that, This is the first time that the Edgar Rice Burroughs novel(s) have been brought to the big screen, And you want to cheapen the experience by comparing it with prince of persia and Legend of zelda??
When I heard about this movie I was really excited. However the whole He-Man look is the stupidest thing I ever saw. I mean seriously. It looks like it could have come right out Xena.

One of the best movie of 2012 ?.I cant wait .The trailer is awesome and the music is so beautiful.But we all know the trailers unlike the movies ;].
About freaking time!

The cover is by Peter Gabriel from Scratch My Back.

@SeaDickey She was red it's just that the tattoos are darker than the rest of her skin. You can tell when she is standing next to John Carter at 1:20.
this movie looks as good as the book, Princess of Mars written in 1917,
Looks cool enough.
I stand by what I think about everything disney. "If it's Disney, it's bullshit."

@FlyingFocs Yeah. But it also most likely inspired famous movie directors like George Lucas too.
@jpalgon1 its a cover of Arcade fire My Body is a cage.... from Neon Bible
@Sheodon Kids don't read anymore. I read these books when I was in like the 5th grade..
@Sheodon Amen brother
Weren't the John Carter novels James Cameron's main inspiration when he thought of Avatar?
@SeaDickey in Edgar Rice Burroughs own words
"they are of a reddish COPPER color" the red tattoos are an apology for actually following Eds instructions on what color the race should be
@NFreund DUne is a bit like it. This is classic pulp scifi in the tradition of Doc Savage and Buck Rogers.
@magicwings92 could you provide a valid link to the song? please.
@jpalgon1 "My Body Is A Cage" Peter Gabriel original though from Arcade Fire
By the way , did anyone of you read book which the film was maked???

What is that Apple logo doing near the bottom right corner?
isnt "John Carter" fromTerminator?
@DrLynch2009 By about 15 years, yes. I should have said, "In the spirit of..." perhaps.
its zelda the movie
@gatocat111 actualy is older than Doc Savage and Buck Rogers
was that the voice of willem defoe at the end?
Disney is involved? Damn..
@Sheodon Lame? It is called continuity wise guy!
i think this story has been copied so many times that audiences will feel that THIS movie is not original and its ripping off other movies
Escaflowne????
