March 12, 2012 9:17 pm Question for Paul and/or Conor; or anyone else that has a theory. What do you think it says that the movie was basically #1 in all foreign markets it opened in this weekend, and one of the highest in Russian history, but made less in the US and has been dismissed by the press as a disappointment. I blame the marketing in part, and the media for so trashing it before it had even come out. They were declaring that it would bomb. So it comes out, makes 30 mil us and 70 foreign and they say it was a big disappointment for Disney. How the heck is it disappointing if everyone had already said it would lose??? Makes me mad!!

March 12, 2012 11:59 am Nicely done review. Very detailed and honest. I loved the movie from start to finish. I really hope that word of mouth spreads on this because it seems to me that most people are enjoying it as much as me. If the Star Wars prequels can succeed, so should this. This deserves a trilogy treatment. Where are you Star Wars fans!?!? Go see this! Without this story, George Lucas probably wouldn't be swimming in your money on Skywalker Ranch!

March 11, 2012 10:47 pm Great show! I'm happy to hear I wasn't alone in absolutely loving this movie. It is a shame that the marketing was so poorly handled because this is a really fun time and it deserves a trilogy!

March 9, 2012 4:10 pm Great review! Just shared it on Facebook because i couldn't agree more!

March 9, 2012 3:31 pm I should clarify, when i said i was not a fan of the novels, i meant that i had not ever heard of them until this movie release. I'm very interested in reading all of the novels now!

March 9, 2012 3:30 pm Saw an advance screening last Thursday. While not a fan of the original novels, I did some digging on them and became very interested in this film. After all the hype or lack there of, i have to say that absolutely loved this movie! I'm really hoping that the terrible adverstising and name changes of this film do not completely ground it at the box office because this film deserves to be a hit and it definitely deserves to have sequels! It had a classic feel that most movies like this are lacking these days. I thought it was a beautifully shot film with fantastic special effects that brought to life a vast landscape of characters and places that have served as inspirations for most of the science fiction fantasy stories we know today. I highly reccommend this movie to anyone! If you know the Burroughs books, or you're a freshman to them, go see it! I promise you won't be disappointed!

February 10, 2012 12:46 pm WHOA! This looks very interesting! I might be on board for this even though i'm trying to cut titles.

February 10, 2012 10:36 am This Cat Staggs cover is superb! But has anyone seen the Gary Frank cover? I normally like his stuff, but wow... its really really terrible! http://supermanhomepage.com/images/solicitation-artwork/May-2012/Skipped/smallville-embed.jpg

February 9, 2012 2:09 pm Just realized what this means.... ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE. We could FINALLY see "Smallville's" Batman and Wonder Woman and Green Lantern and....... Possibilities are endless now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
