This looks good like they honored the great books //PLEASE type in GREEN LANTERN THE ORIGINAL SCREENPLAY it is the true4 story of how GEORGE LUCAS sent off duty CIA agents to threaten my mother with guns PLEASE check it out thanks
I really want this to be good but I think they'll have a hard time convincing the movie audience of it's originallity when basicly every sci-fi film ever made has borrowed a lot from Burroughs novels. Hopefully we'll get something that does the original novels justice and not a cheap looking star wars rip of..
The green aliens don't (at least in my opinion) look big enough, the red aliens just look like somebody took some sand to a white chick and made her red, and there is nothing mentioned about earth in the books other than that is where john came from (that I remember) and he is not to look like some pretty boy he is meant to be a rugged/haggard war hero whom is trying to strike it rich out west
My dad read this book series when he was a kid, and passed them down to me and I loved all of them. Having seen a different JCoM movie (which sucked) I'm glad to see this one, which looks more expertly produced. I can't wait to see it opening weekend and am looking forward to seeing some of the opening story before John ends up on Mars.
i loved those books i just hope it doesn't rape my childhood fantasy and imagination of this strange and wonderful place that was described in the book like the other one
i just bought all the books again there brilliant and to imagine this was written 100 years ago
For those who wish more background on this Mars series, go to booksshouldbefree, search for Edgar Rice Burroughs and download the free audio books. Funnily enough, I listened to them during January 2012 before seeing the trailer. Enjoy!
This is a badass movie and I intend to watch it no matter what people say! Seen it all before, have you? Well, have you ever seen four-armed, green-skinned Martians, giant, albino gorillas and lions with eight legs? C’mon, give this movie a chance.
@greywolf424. Obviously, you didn't read my comment properly at all, retard. Really pitiful. I clearly said, "initially it started as a book by Edgar Rice Burroughs back in 1912 titled 'A Princess of Mars.'"
Star Wars and Avatar "ripped it off?" Please, they were 'influenced' by it!
@dakata13 Though the same thing. But Jake is way cooler than Taylor here. He looks like a kid:( Now I wanna see Prince of Persia again;) Why don't you make a movie like that again?;(
@dakata13 Much more interesting background and mythology than Prince of Persia -- my guess on the similarity in the looks is that it was the same director; they are both by disney, after all.
Bad choice of actress. She looks like the only fight she's ever been in is over the closeouts at Macy's. If Salma Hyek or Halle Berry are too expensive, they should've gotten an unknown Israeli actress who's actually been in an army!
this trailer blows.it basically shows fuck all.som green dude,a spaceship.few poor quality eye squinting scenes, an a dude who can jump 100 feet. how fuckin far fetched is this shit?
unless this is starwars 7 i dont wanna hear about it
@Can0fpepsi ...so it's of no interest to you that this movie is based on a 11-novel series first published in 1917? Or the fact this successful novel series inspired later sci-fi writers like Ray Bradbury (The Martian Chronicles)...Sir Arthur C. Clarke (2001: A Space Odyssey) or inspired Carl Sagan and others into the fields of space exploration and the search for extraterrestrial life?
im always against movie trailers that reveals too much. this on the other hand does not show me anything. perhaps that is good but im not even remotely interested to watch this. the main character didn't even have a dialog spoken in this trailer, instead its disconnected by the narrator's voice forcing down the idea of John Carter is a "hero". oh he can jump leap like a superhero at the end, yeah im sure he got this covered, he'll win the war and get the girl. so why watch this movie again?
@Chropoles because its from 1910-1920 and the basis to all sci-fi ect Star Wars wrighter G. Lucas took ideas to Star Wars from these books. And the jump is of the gravity thats on Mars.
@Fakkmalmoe ok the jump is reasonable enough, but im not sure why you compared it to SW. im sure Lucas was inspired by it, he was inspired by lots of things actually. still im just saying the trailer does not spark any interest for me cause of how it is presented.
Star Wars: Rip off of the Hidden Fortress (which Lucas references as the inspiration for his star wars films, he was influenced by many samurai films), Avatar: Rip off of Fergully: The Last Rainforest. It's kind of hard for this movie to rip-off anything when the story was written in the earl 1900's...but expecting this CoD generation of retards to understand that is, not-surprisingly, impossible.
Just to make this clear: This move is an adaption of Edgar Rice Burroughs: A Princess of Mars (1912) Well before Star Wars was created (Somewhere around the 70s).
@szotyacid. To be more exact, Star Wars came out in 1977 and yes, John Carter came out initially as a book by Edgar Rice Burroughs back in 1912 titled "A Princess of Mars."
@szotyacid Wasn't it published in 1907? Either way though, yes. This movie is the Great great grandaddy of Science Fiction Heroic Epics. So it deserves to do well and get recognized for that.
Hope they do the great series of books justice!!! PLEASE type in GREEN LANTERN THE ORIGINAL SCREENPLAY it is the true story of how GEORGE LUCAS sent off duty CIA agents to threaten my Mother with guns PLEASE check it out thanks
This story precedes Star Wars by many decades, was the inspiration for Avatar and is probably going to be insulted in this movie version...the actual story, if u were to read it, would blow ur mind away, its beyond epic
@Ralokone alright, if you can't see the scenes for what they are, its ok. I really don't care. Prince of Persia is written all over these scenes. I'm not a talking about story.. I'm talking about HOW they FILMED it. What does a 100 year old story have to do with HOW they FILM it, what angles they use, CGI, etc. You're obviously missing my point.. so I'll leave it at that.
this story is far beyond anything thats been mentioned. Seriously, Starwars, Prince of Persia? You must be joking or completely ignorant. This is more comparable to Jules Verne then George Lucas. Edgar Rice Burroughs invented Tarzan! Invented him! I got one book by him, an assist in writing, that simply explains why heros always uses a sword! I will be going to see this movie, my only worry is Brendan Frasers Jouney to the Center of the Earth... ugh. Atleast were going in the right direct
Hope they do justice to the great series of books //PLEASE check out GREEN LANTERN THE ORIGINAL SCREENPLAY it is the true story of how GEORGE LUCAS sent off duty CIA agents to threaten my mother with guns PLEASE check it out thanks
My uncle suggested to read this book to me and well..... i was so fascinated by it that i didnt get any sleep in two days until i had finished it. Definitly watching this in cinema!
lol....to all those who cite this as a Avatar rip-off...I offer this quote of James Cameon from a interview he gave "The New Yorker"; 2009 OCT 26: “With ‘Avatar,’ I thought, Forget all these chick flicks and do a classic guys’ adventure movie, something in the Edgar Rice Burroughs mold, like John Carter of Mars—a soldier goes to Mars,”
So, for those of you who see the Avatar element, you're right about that, but wrong in who influenced whom.
@Speedskater4life007 ...then you might be able to watch this movie with a open mind rather than with preconceived notions of "rip-off" of other movies as several others have stated. If you do choose to view this movie, I hope you will enjoy it.
@Ranlon ...you know not what you speak of. If you are young, then your ignorance is understandable and expected....just as all others before you who cite Avatar, the Prince of Persia, Conan as the sources for this movie.
typical american flim. world is about to end and one white guy can save it. bad almost wins but dude is badass and destroys everything by some miracle. i liked blade where the main hero doesnt die and he is actually black. nothing against white folks just wondering how come they all have to be white? i mean come on dragonball?
@TheSAEkid ...from your comment it is obvious you're unfamiliar with the Barsoom novel series (11 novels of the adventures of Confederate captain John Carter) written by Edgar Rice Burroughs.The successful series, as novels published between 1917-1964 And the world Carter saves is not Earth, rather it is Mars; known as Barsoom to it's native populations.
@TheSAEkid ...by the way, what's your beef with Dragonball? Do you know the anime is based on the successful Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Akira Toriyama which in turn is inspired by the 16th century (Ming Dynasty) Chinese classic novel entitled "Journey to the West"? White culture had nothing to do with Dragonball expect giving a censored English version for Western audiences.
@TheSAEkid that's because this movie is based ON A BOOK where the main character is white, if the movie changed John Carter's ethnicity as black, the fans of the books will be enraged.
Hope they do justice to the great series of books !!!////PLEASE type in GREEN LANTERN THE ORIGINAL SCREENPLAY it is the true story of how GEORGE LUCAS sent off duty CIA agents to threaten my Mother with guns PLEASE check it out thanks
Why are people saying this looks like Star Wars and Avatar. I have never read or even heard of the original book before the trailer and I don't see any similarity besides that it is science fiction. It does resemble Dune however.
@chigeh ...those who cite previous movies are merely trying to related based on previous limited experiences. And citing Dune is understandable, Barsoom (Mars) and Dune have similar planetary environments; desert. However, the reasons how both planets developed in that direction are due to entirely different causes.
@chigeh0:44 = Prince of Persia. Hell, the whole damn thing, scene by scene looks like Prince of Persia. Not to mention the scenes where he fights some monsters inside of this pit-like whole in some desert. It's the whole StarWars sequence. When I first saw this movie I though it was a troll trailer like the "Zelda" one. But then I saw it in the superbowl.. Have you never seen Prince of Persia or Starwars? (the newer ones, although I wouldn't blame you if you haven't seen it)
@TheSinEnvy Yes and that cloud I see in the sky is a dog.
He is fight the monster in an Arena. Fighting animals is something practiced by a lot of civilizations. Did star was copy it from bull fighting in Spain?
@chigeh if you see the other trailers of this movie you'll understand it's not just "similar" it's frame by frame the same scenes. The way they are filmed and the way they play out. Also, are the Prince of Persia scenes not a perfect example? Did you see prince of persia or played the games?
@TheSinEnvy Okay here is what you are going to go do, you are going to go to google and type in the words "Edgar Rice Burroughs A Princess of Mars"
and you are going to click the first wikipedia entry seen and you are going to read the synopsis of the book! And you are going to stop being an idiot child who makes assumptions based on vague similarities
@chigeh They are saying Star Wars because of the gigantic Jedi flip and killing the monster in the arena, and they are also saying Avatar because the aliens are tall and look similar CGI wise. Oh almost forgot, they are complete tools aswell.
this would look better if the star didn't look like he was just barely out of High School. He's supposed to be a veteran Captain of the Confederate Army not a cast member of 21 Jump Street. :/
@MrsShathi It may have not existed then, but you need to look at the history of the John Carter costume designs. They had a middle-eastern design to them. This is just a rip-off of Swedish-Viking Era clothing design, albeit without all the extra padding, fur, ect.
@Bombreaker3 I dont know what armchair warrior means, but it does sound deragatory and I would like to know its meaning so I can use it to insult other people!
I know ALOT about Edgar Rice Burroughs mars, more than you can fathom, and that knowledge extends to the film! I maintain both the wikis on burroughs mars :/
John Carters clothes in the book are not arabic, its just ornaments! The clothes in the film are meant to be somewhat roman looking, this is not what vikings wore!
@Bombreaker3 Armchair warrior is fairly accurate description of me, although I am picky about the battles I choose and only fight for things important to me (I am not going to argue about religion or anything)
and now that you mention fur, it is important to note that in the pre-release information its revealed that appearently only the kings on mars wear fur . . . god i am a dork
Hope they honor the great original books!!PLEASE type in GREEN LANTERN THE ORIGINAL SCREENPLAY it is the true story of how GEORGE LUCAS sent off duty CIA agents to threaten my Mother with guns PLEASE check it out thanks

@TheSAEkid that's because this movie is based ON A BOOK where the main character is white, if the movie changed John Carter's ethnicity as black, the fans of the books will be enraged.

Wow, I've always loved the John Carter books. I sure hope the film doesn't suck.

Why are people saying this looks like Star Wars and Avatar. I have never read or even heard of the original book before the trailer and I don't see any similarity besides that it is science fiction. It does resemble Dune however.

@chigeh Not to mention the dude is totally wearing the Skyrim armor

@chigeh ...those who cite previous movies are merely trying to related based on previous limited experiences. And citing Dune is understandable, Barsoom (Mars) and Dune have similar planetary environments; desert. However, the reasons how both planets developed in that direction are due to entirely different causes.

@geekeing I would also like to note that movies in the same genre are doomed to have similarities.

@chigeh 0:44 = Prince of Persia. Hell, the whole damn thing, scene by scene looks like Prince of Persia. Not to mention the scenes where he fights some monsters inside of this pit-like whole in some desert. It's the whole StarWars sequence. When I first saw this movie I though it was a troll trailer like the "Zelda" one. But then I saw it in the superbowl.. Have you never seen Prince of Persia or Starwars? (the newer ones, although I wouldn't blame you if you haven't seen it)

@TheSinEnvy Yes and that cloud I see in the sky is a dog.
He is fight the monster in an Arena. Fighting animals is something practiced by a lot of civilizations. Did star was copy it from bull fighting in Spain?
Seriously,
Similarities=/=rip off
chigeh 3 weeks ago
@chigeh if you see the other trailers of this movie you'll understand it's not just "similar" it's frame by frame the same scenes. The way they are filmed and the way they play out. Also, are the Prince of Persia scenes not a perfect example? Did you see prince of persia or played the games?

@TheSinEnvy Okay here is what you are going to go do, you are going to go to google and type in the words "Edgar Rice Burroughs A Princess of Mars"
and you are going to click the first wikipedia entry seen and you are going to read the synopsis of the book! And you are going to stop being an idiot child who makes assumptions based on vague similarities

@Ralokone "Vague" oh lord.. alright, if you don't see it I can't force you to see it. Have a nice day.
TheSinEnvy 2 weeks ago
@TheSinEnvy Yes VAGUE, because the only similarities that I see is . .. there is a desert, and the aliens are tall
is it because the characters in all these movies have arms and legs?
Please for the love of god read "A Princess of Mars"
It was published in 1912 for heavens sake, its a solid 100 years old!

@chigeh They are saying Star Wars because of the gigantic Jedi flip and killing the monster in the arena, and they are also saying Avatar because the aliens are tall and look similar CGI wise. Oh almost forgot, they are complete tools aswell.

MrsShathi 1 month ago
@MrsShathi It may have not existed then, but you need to look at the history of the John Carter costume designs. They had a middle-eastern design to them. This is just a rip-off of Swedish-Viking Era clothing design, albeit without all the extra padding, fur, ect.

Well done, Armchair warrior; you tried, and failed. Better luck next time.

@Bombreaker3 I dont know what armchair warrior means, but it does sound deragatory and I would like to know its meaning so I can use it to insult other people!
I know ALOT about Edgar Rice Burroughs mars, more than you can fathom, and that knowledge extends to the film! I maintain both the wikis on burroughs mars :/
John Carters clothes in the book are not arabic, its just ornaments! The clothes in the film are meant to be somewhat roman looking, this is not what vikings wore!

Armchair Warrior: Man/Woman who sits in a chair and fights pointless battles over the interwebs.
..........and I said it looked similar to viking apparel, without all the extra fur and such. The difference mainly being in material.
As for the wikis, congratulations good sir. I tip my hat to you!
Bombreaker3 1 month ago
@Bombreaker3 Armchair warrior is fairly accurate description of me, although I am picky about the battles I choose and only fight for things important to me (I am not going to argue about religion or anything)
and now that you mention fur, it is important to note that in the pre-release information its revealed that appearently only the kings on mars wear fur . . . god i am a dork
