Alternate Opening Scene For JOHN CARTER

its ok just like the film

Yeah, I'm glad they cut it. Although, this does make some motives a little more clear for me now.

What's with the stupid description??

"The film, which is as dull as watching repeats of Jake and The Fat Man"

You don't start an article with bias. If you don't like the movie then you should have let someone else write this article, or at the very least leave your opinion out of it.

What was wrong with that?! Good night Disney could not have tried harder to sabotage this terrific film. Way to go...morons!

You can't blame the movie failing solely on the marketing. It's not like it got raving reviews. Haven't seen the movie but from the reviews I heard its boring.

Well I will be sure not to read or trust any review by nailbiter111 ever again. We should be able to report whole articles on this site. What a Douche Bag.

@BooYah John Carter has a 52% on rotten tomatoes which means over half the critics liked it. But who cares what they think you should watch it yourself. "Boondock Saints" the first one has a 17% on rotten tomatoes so what do they know.

Hello, guys.

I think that too much executives involved in the production made this movie fail. They wanted these five minutes out just to put another useless five minutes introduction narrated by willem Dafoe.

The movie force was the mistery around the main character, his origin, his drama, his pain and also the strange place/planet where he did go.

All the gratuitious explanations were useless to me.

Although all of it I think the movie was great and I still can't understand why it failed on USA.

And just for you to know, the day when a DVD rip copy of the movie appeared on [download content website] Demonoid, the site felt about almost 12 hours - everybody wanted it!!!

In addition to a "Like" button for articles, I recommend a "C*ckpunch Submitter" button. Seriously, do you know the difference between editorializing and reporting?

if this is your first time realizing that I share my opinions in my articles then you don't come here often or you're obtuse.

sometimes i post things that i know you guys will like, but that doesn't mean i haven't to as well.

NinjaJesus - if i have it just in the article and not the teaser the same whining will occur.

Ok, I havent seen it yet so I can only go by what Ive seen in trailers BTS shorts reviews and now this. That being said I seriously have to ask; more than half of you said you ejoyed the movie, am I REALLY the only one who read the books?
-From what Ive seen- this looks like they just threw together a handful of scraps from the actual plot and held them together with a bunch of dumbed down exposition. I dont get it.
They make a movie of a book a hundred years old, a story has inspired dozens of movies. Star Wars, Avatar and so many others I cant name were inspired by parts of the Barsoom series. But never a whole movie just to A Princes Of Mars or even based on the adventures of main character of John Carter. So why not just shot the first book? Yeah ok add some F/X stuff, more action ok. But the main villians of this first ever John Carter movie are from the third book in the series. There seems to be q&a n inordinate

i like to give the news, and add my two sense. since i'm doing the writing I choose to do what I like. If you'd like a stale Wall Street Journal approach there are plenty of sites that offer that or you could participate and contribute yourself.

as for a bias. who cares? my opinion clearly didn't sway your enjoyment of the film. i think of everyone as being mature enough to form their own opinion, and smart enough not to think mine is perfect.

You can continue to do whatever you want of course, that's not the point of everyone's comments.

Reporting and giving your two "cents" do not necessarily go hand in hand. You have an opportunity here that others don't, and you alienate your readers with that. There are places for opinion articles on this site.

If you're going to report, report. Of course not everyone will agree, but if it's in the proper place, who can complain?

I suppose I wish I could say the same.

. i think of everyone as being mature enough to form their own opinion, and smart enough not to think mine is perfect. @nailbiter you give some people on here way too much credit! Keep up the good work bro!

pulitzer....dream...crushed. hey what's a pulitzer?

The film was awesome and Lynn Collins was amazing. Don't know how anyone can call this movie dull with all the attributes it has to the contrary, aliens, civil war, time travel, super powers, chases, fights, love, discovery, humour and some of the best visuals I've seen this year in any movie.

To call a film with this much presentation "dull" simply means you lack the ability to assess without personal bias. Just because someone didn't like pizza doesn't mean they'd be accurate calling it "Dull", that would just be them being spiteful! Even if I did not like this movie the way I don't like Avatar, the content alone clearly defines it as anything other than "Dull".

I liked it. John Carter was a good movie. Not dull at all, which is a stupid [frick]ing statement.

Sorry, nailbiter111, but you're just wrong about this movie. It wasn't the est movie ever, but it was entertaining. You fell prey to the same trap that tripped up so many other reviewers: the movie did not match your expectations and therefore you didn't like it. That's a marketing problem: the marketing for this was so poor that a lot of people who would have liked it never went to see it, and people who don't like this sort of movie did go to see it. The politics at Disney are what ended up killing this thing. The movie shod have had a tighter plot, been 20 minutes shorter, supported by cross-promotions and a toy line, and had a completely different marketing campaign. (And the title should have been "John Carter and the Princess of Mars.")

Even with its flaws, though, it was a good movie and I'm sad we'll never get a sequel.

Dull??? Dull???? I think not, sir!!!!

Good movie, asinine editorial. Of course, that's just my opinion.

nailbiter, if you can't muster the appropriate objectivity and decorum, it's simple: let other people write the article. It's clear your attitude has bothered people. Not everyone wants to have their cbm news soaked in other people's opinions before reading them. Do the site a favour ;)
