I still have my uncle’s original hardbacks from the ‘40s of most of those Tarzan / Martian / Venus books.
Most of them still have the jackets intact, too.

So Tim Riggins grew up to be a superhero? Cool!

I thought the movie was a little slow and needed something. It seemed a little flat. Action wasn’t that much. I did enjoy it, however.

As far as the box office, I think it will bomb. Most will find it boring and not enough action. The long runtime will limit showings.

The Lorax was great.

saw it, would recomend it highly.

the CGI did nail the four armed martians well.
(compared to the silly scifi channel, oops syfy [pronounced sea-fee] low budget silliness)

They obviously covered up the princess a bit more than the book. They did put in some minor pc twists in it but the story was good.

footnote the “maid marian without robin hood” movie looks to be an upcomming lame movie.

Disney better hire some executives who are fathers with sons in order to stop being the princess and poofy entertainer.

All in all it was a fun movie.

of course now I have to find a six legged toy plush dog thingy.
