It wasn't good. That's why it bombed. All the marketing in the world wasn't making up for awful acting.

Each to their own i suppose

i'm with Esau & Leech, It being a good movie.

As to that, I say:

Remember, Tarkin > Vader in ANH. Tarkin told Vader what to do and he did it.

Yet another Lucas update? Next thing you'll know, Padme was sleeping with Obi-Wan and totally had that choke coming.

That was definitely Anakin's robe he was wearing on Mustafar. That's why Anakin was so pissed.

Obi-Wan's a baller.

Obi is trolling Anakin and is directly responsible for his fall. New revision storyline.

Obi would have had a difficult time trying to get with Padme with Anakin's dick constantly in his mouth.

"Spread your Chosen One baby-batter all over my face! gurgle gurgle...it's in my beard! WEEEE!"

You've taken that too far.

Way to make it ghey DDM.

I approve.

Trailer for this movie didn't really interest me

Yeah. It didn't do a lot for me either, aside from looking pretty fantastic. But it is just a teaser. I'm gonna try to resist watching the full trailer.

John Carter sucked. It was the definition of a generic action/adventure movie.

Y'know 5 minutes of research would've stopped you from making such idiotic observations.

You didn't like the movie...that's fine but get your facts straight when you want to share an opinion.

lol... Holy jesus... Here's the thread you all are looking for: Disney's John Farter

Hey you have a passion with Riddick....my fondest childhood memories were reading Tarzan, John Carter & Conan novels.

You: "Waaaaaah John Carter was an adaptation of a book written decades ago."

I care... why? The source material doesn't stop the movie from being a generic piece of shit. That the book is the inspiration for a lot of modern sci-fi/fantasy we have today is irrelevant.

Yeah, it's just not the right thread for it. You didn't start it, I know. I read the first two John Carter novels and loved them, too. And the movie was nothing like them. I liked the design of a lot of it, but it completely destroyed my vision of the story and characters, inserting stupid sci-fi cliches and made John Carter himself extremely unlikable (which was not the case in the books).

Jupiter Ascending (as far as I know) is not taken from any source material, aside from apparently having some parallels with Snow White. But it's clearly far from a literal translation of it. It looks to be an original work of science fiction from the Wachowski siblings... the kind of thing I've been waiting for them to do. A sci-fi space adventure by them will hopefully be quite the geek wet-dream.

Hey I said my peace about JC & that's all you'll hear from me about it.

I like the Wachowskis but they'll always suffer from having any of their current works being compared to the Matrix Trilogy all the time...especially special effects.

I can't wait. This looks really good.

Pretty amusing image of the albino Channing Tatum...

"Channung Tatum has Zero Melanin [...]"

Yeah, I could have told you that.

Still looking forward to this movie though. Saw a preview when I went to see American Hustle or something. Thor 2? I forget.
