Lots of 10th anniversary discussion about John Carter of Mars right now!

Great time for people to give this edit a watch, highly recommended!

I still love this movie. Time has not lessened my pure joy when I rewatch it.

Andrew Stanton gave an interview this past week, detailing what his plans were for the sequel...

Sounds like it would have been another fun ride!

This movie had an amazing cast! I love how a lot of them were basically reprising their same role from the HBO Rome series.

THANKS @BuffShipper for taking the time to post a review.

...and the choice to present 1800s Earth in b&w and Mars in color was an inspired one.

And that was inspired by one of my all time favourite movies, THE WIZARD OF OZ!

You're so very welcome! Thank you for taking time to create such a great edit! (And The Wizard of Oz is an all-time classic for sure )

I just now stumbled upon this edit. Would really like to watch it.
The movie failed at the boxoffice, but I liked it. Let's call it a guilty pleasure.

Thank Yous to @FrameSniffer and @NothingHereButRancor for their recent reviews.

As I think I have said in the past, I absolutely LOVE the original movie. For me, it has only gotten better with time.
But it was fun to try to create a slightly shorter, more focused version.

And I would love to take another crack at JOHN CARTER one day... always wanted to incorporate elements from one of the Audio Books, to give it POV voice over flavour closer to the novels. Maybe one day...

Think a POV voiceover from the audio books is a great idea!
Agree it’s got better with time for me too. I wish there was a sequel in the works.
