Just went to this today. I liked it thought it was entertaining and look forward to the blu-ray release. Lynn Collins is smoking hot in it.

Much to my surprise this is based on a book by Edgar Rice Burroughs that's 100 years old. I knew it was based on a book but the age of the book was surprising to me. I just checked amazon and I can get the kindle edition on my smart phone for free. There is also quite a few books in the series. So hopefully this may be a budding franchise.
Its also curious to me that it has taken 100 years to make this movie considering all the "Tarzan" movies that have been made over the years.

It was aweful. Nothing original, and when he turned blue :M

What?

I really do hope that June is trying to yank chains. Otherwise....., well it's one hell of a fail.


So, the Barsoom series of books were some of the first scifi I read as a kid and that's what hooked me as a scifi nut. I really am looking forward to the movie.

I downloaded the first book since seeing the movie via my kindle app and although the wording and phrases are a bit dated the overall story is good. I'm only 6-7 chapters in but so far the liberties that they took in the film I felt were good. Do report back if you see the film I'm interested in hearing from someone who has read the books.
