Another nice little trailer. Bomb or not, I still think this movie is gonna f*cking rock. I'm really enjoying reading the novels and this looks like a pretty awesome adaptation. I'm not sure Dejah Thoris is quite as beautiful as she should be, but perhaps I'm just not getting good enough of a look at her. I'm f*cking psyched about this.
But yeah, it will be hard for it to overcome a $250 million budget if it isn't marketed properly. Perhaps they're counting on word-of-mouth. I hope it does well, cuz the second book is f*cking awesome. I soooo want to see this turn into a franchise.

But Kazenji, you are on these forums. And you have time and inclination to go to movie websites to find news about the film. So you do have some time to fiddle around the movie forums.

Well, they really shouldn't change the title. So I guess there's nothing they can really do about that. I thought the same thing at first, but now that I've read some of the stories, the title works. I think people might not notice that it's set on a fictional Mars, since they've taken Mars out of the title. So that might cause some confusion. I mean, it's kind of a strange story! Sci-fi often is... and the public often has trouble with that. But oh well, I love it. I guess Disney is banking on the strength of the stories (he's an excellent writer) and he seems like a strong director, so I have high hopes.
I thoroughly disagree. That illustration is a little over-the-top to the point that it looks silly. I think the design for the movie looks perfect. These are at least as scary as anything from Pirates of the Caribbean (I think they're better, personally). They were apparently going for some sympathetic green men and some mean enemy green men. Hence the difference between these two.
