John Carter (A Princess of Mars)

I never manage to get all the way through A Princess of Mars, the beginning of the Barsoom series, by Edgar Rice Burroughs.



The film is really good, a superior pizza movie, with the tribal Tharks in particular being very well done. I don't know why it didn't do well at the box office, because it's a good romp, with a decent romance thrown in, but maybe The Avengers coming out at the same time, plus the ambiguous title didn't help.

The dog's great, though.
