New John Carter Trailer! Posted at 8:39 PM by Dave Post

Now this looks epic! Much more information than in the first trailer and a ton of decent looking special effects including a good look at Woola. He’s a little too cute but not bad for Disney. The Tharks feature heavily in this trailer and they look alternatingly good and bad throughout. What I’d like to see is more of the white ape. He’s freakin’ huge!

Overall I like the new trailer though I’m a little concerned about the special effects. I’m sure this is not the final version and knowing they have until March to put on whatever finishing touches are left makes me feel a bit more optimistic.

What do you think of the new trailer? How about Woola?

Dude that looks bad ass. I haven’t read any of the John Carter series yet and I’m afraid this movie will ruin the books for me like "The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy" did.

It very well may ruin the book, so I suggest running out and reading it (or download the easily found free audiobook version). I’ve noticed that a film is never ruined by the book, but a book is frequently, if not always, ruined by the movie. Speaking of, there is a list to be made of good books ruined by movies, such as Hitchhiker’s Guide, Eragon, I Am Legend…. Maybe not I Am Legend, because it, like Starship Troopers, differs so much from the book that just about nothing is ruined.
