Never having read the books or seen The Princess of Mars, this movie was great. I liked the dialog, character interaction, plot, sub plots, special effects, clean language, overall great movie. Those of you who said this was not a good movie, well, your loss.
The books are great. There are literally volumes and volumes of CARTER stuff. The first collection actually has a glossary of characters at the beginning that explains each and every one. Edgar Rice Burroughs was a genius. Read some TARZAN when you get a chance…Same thing: Dozens of tales.
I don't care that this movie bombed at the box office , I am very happy they made it because I think it is a wonderful and beautiful movie. I loved every minute of it, I wish it had not failed so we could see a John Carter 2. On the strength of this movie I don't think we will see a John Carter 2, which is sad because this movie looks good had a good story and was very well acted. It was just brilliant and I cannot see why it bombed but it's sad for such a great film not to have a sequel. A truly wonderfully filmed movie
It shows you that when the powers that be don’t want you to succeed, they can make anything fail, and when they want something to do good, they can make trash like Wakanda Forever have great numbers
Edgar Rice Burrows wrote a whole series of the novels (11 of them) so, if you liked the movie, you might really like the novels. There is a lot to the story, that the movie only touches on.
I love this movie! I have watched it several times over the years. Good acting and great special effects and a good story line. I was surprised to learn that it didn't do very well at the box office.
I saw it in the theater, and I enjoyed it very much. People listen too much to movie critics in order to make up their mind. Movie critics are part of paid advertisement imo.
Honestly, I never understood the hate for this film. I personally thought it was good. This was once upon a time when there was little to no WOKE in movies yet as well.
I grew up on Edgar Rice Burroughs fantasy stories. The 12 volume Martion series (John Carter), the 24 volume Tarzan of the Apes series, the 6 volume Pellucidar (Inner Earth) series, the 4 volume Venus series as well as The Mucker and many other individual novels including his 4 western novels. ( Burroughs was a cowboy and an exceptional horseman).
I Bow down to you Sir as an Edgar Burroughs expert. I have read all of his books also but unfortunately I only have his John Carter of Mars series in hardback on my book shelves. I started reading his books back when I was in high school, these were the mass produce paper back books. I continued to read his books even when I enlisted in the US Army. His books were a hot item in the barracks and we passed them around so they were pretty beat up when I got my hand on one.
@ I, unfortunately, had to downsize a few years ago and my Burroughs collection now contains only “The Mucker” and the four westerns he wrote. Likewise, my Zane Grays collection diminished from 40 to two, my Clarence Mulford collection to two and my Louis Lamors to a couple! So sad, but there it is.
As an ERB fan since my early teens I loved the John Carter novels. Sorry the film didn't turn into the franchise Disney wanted but at least they did it right. No movie can ever replicate the books exactly but this one was pretty close to the mark.
I have read every ERB book I laid my hands on, many of them twice. Absolutely captivating author. When I was bored at school and was not paying attention in class... I was thinking of those books. It is a shame they have not continued the movies
@@keith4826 my story too. I was bored at school, hanging out in the library. Started reading Tarzan at the Earths Core. I was an ERB fan by the end of the book.
It won’t be the same because Disney would just make him a women and have the movie bad guys be all straight people and anyone who doesn’t support The far left is a nazi
If you read the book, "John Carter and the Gods of Holywood" you'll realize that the studio *had no idea what sort of movie they had just made* or what to do with it. Essentially, they mis-marketed & under-promoted the movie, thereby f&$!ing John Carter at the box office. It was a crime.😢
It wasn't the reviews that cancelled it, it was the fact Disney did not want John Carter competing with the MCU. John Carter is an expanse of books, and it would have been a lot of movies if they carried on with it, more than Harry Potter maybe from my understanding. Avengers was a huge hit, and John Carter released in the same year, 2012, and it just didn't hit the mark like Avengers did. So Disney decided to make sure to put more money into the MCU, and cancelled John Carter's sequels.
@@superblahman Nah, it wasn't the MCU that did it either. Disney decided to do a Mars franchise when the original deal with LucasFilm fell through. They knew that a multi-film sci-fi franchise would compete with Star Wars. Right about the time "John Carter" was in post, the LucasFilm deal went through again. Since they were banking on Star Wars, they wanted to drop the Mars movies. Instead of just cancelling the release & having to soak it, they surreptitiously sabotaged the marketing for it... that way when it bombed financially, they could write it off as a loss.
Edgar Rice Burroughs was such a great author, I will never stop rereading his work. This was a good movie I really enjoyed it, but as always, the book is better.
I like how the movie balance violence and gore. When i discovered that Disney produced it i was a little surprised. Underrated Movie btw, i'm sad it flopped
I am Egyptian, I live in a country where an unjust, brutal and authoritarian military coup has taken place, based on killing and imprisoning the people just for objecting to the ruling, and they do not recognize the principle of opinion and freedom of expression. And social justice.. save a miserable person
John Carter - Best Moments.....should have played the whole movie!!😅 This is a great movie, and it deserves a sequel. Disney did this movie dirty when they cut the marketing budget (a few months before the opening, I think 🤔). I believe they changed the title or the logo before the opening also.
Never understood the criticism. The whole point movies exist is to entertain and this movie did a great job of that. I don’t think everything has to be Oscar worthy. Honestly, sometimes I like B movies so much because they don’t take themselves too seriously
Was always pissed at the inconsistency in showing his strength. If he had the strength to jump like 500 feet in the air and live on landing then when he hit someone with a sword every hit would be a dismemberment. Even when it dulled the hit would still cause massive wounds. Also those iron chains....NONE of them would be able to hold him at that thickness.
@@palacespot2 i think they exaggerate a little. I could jump like 4 feet in the air on mars though it would be cool. he can jump like the Hulk in the movie.
Yes, and it (and the other 10 books in the series) was written by Edgar Rice Burrows, you know, the character in the movie who is reading the chronicle? They were written between 1911 and … 1948 I believe.
Although critics seem to think otherwise, I really liked this movie. Nonetheless, I always wait for those martians to start dancing to "Dame Tu Cosita"...
I actually read like 12 of the i think it is 16 books that are the bases for this series. They kinda altered alot from the book such a ls the fact John was never married and was infact immortal or ageless aa he had gought in wars for centuries on earth and never remebers being a child etc. I went and watched this in 3D on opening day and it was pretty awesome tho
The more I watch this, the more I realize this is a masterpiece
That just be why it lost 300 million
Due to it’s insanely high budget and it only lost 200 million…but a good guess
Never having read the books or seen The Princess of Mars, this movie was great. I liked the dialog, character interaction, plot, sub plots, special effects, clean language, overall great movie. Those of you who said this was not a good movie, well, your loss.
They did a decent job of keeping the main story from the books.
Yeah
The books are great.
There are literally volumes and volumes of CARTER stuff.
The first collection actually has a glossary of characters at the beginning that explains each and every one.
Edgar Rice Burroughs was a genius.
Read some TARZAN when you get a chance…Same thing: Dozens of tales.
Reading TheGods of Mars right now!
The most annoying part for me was Deja wearing clothes...
😂
I actually liked the movie and always wanted to see a part2
Waiting since 12 years 😢

Being able to cross your arms while standing with your hands on your hips? Boss-level superpower! 😂
One of the Best Isekai movies😁of all time. Now I can only wish it gets a second part.
Bruh I never thought of that before till now 😂 total new respect for the film

@@nela9994It’s out of print but I was able to get the whole series cobbled from different sources. It’s worth putting in your library.
I love this movie! I have watched it several times over the years. Good acting and great special effects and a good story line. I was surprised to learn that it didn't do very well at the box office.
I also just watched it again for the first time in many years. It was just ahead of the times.
Can't resist the Woola!
Many great movies didn't do well at the Box office at first. Shawshan Redemption is one which later became the highest ever rated movie on IMDB
I saw it in the theater, and I enjoyed it very much. People listen too much to movie critics in order to make up their mind. Movie critics are part of paid advertisement imo.
I loved as well... but what a massive budget , if not for that it would have made for two more.. oh well we got this one.😁
They didn’t really market this movie right and it’s too mature for kids and too immature for adults.
John Carter is an EXCELLANT movie!!!
This is proof that IMDb rating sometimes wrong, this movie deserves a rating 7.5 - 7.8. Visual effects is good and story good also ❤
A 6.6 out of 10 is still a decent score. At least it's not rated 5 or less
Honestly, I never understood the hate for this film. I personally thought it was good. This was once upon a time when there was little to no WOKE in movies yet as well.
People hate this film 😯. Why?
I agree this was a very good 🎬, but where's the woke part coming from 🤔
I didn’t know people hate this movie until I started watching clips on TH-cam
To be honest I loved it and thought it was an awesome movie. And couldn't for the life of me understand why it was so hated
You don't understand? It's trash on muiltyple levels.
Most underrated movie of 2012
hugely underrated
Agreed. Great sci-fi movie!
Was it that long ago? Wow! It’s held up well!
It's a disaster
They didn’t follow the books though 😢
John carter and battleship (2012) most brilliant movies .
One of the best movies produced in a long time.
I been waiting for Carter 2

Bought this. Watch it at least twice a year.
Such an underrated movie, I am glad that it has found a cult following, maybe one day we will get a sequel.

Such a fabulously under promoted movie. One of my top 5.
Awesome movie! I always loved this movie.
I loved John Carter! Great movie.
Love this movie, wanted more !
WE RIDE FOR ZODANGA! best linein the whole film.
O melhor filme que eu ja vi. Gostaria de ver outro
Sequência 😢. Fazem por favor ❤
08:56 😂😂😂 The best in this movie
LOL. I love his pet dog? LMAO I want one..
I will never get the hate for this movie. I've always enjoyed it.
Jhon Carter, espero la segunda parte. La imaginación es consecuencia del futuro, ánimo y a seguir
I always wanted to see part 2 this movie is Gem
I read the novels as a kid, I enjoyed this movie. I wish they'd continued with the series.
This is the most true to the book movie ever...Not to say that the book was all that great BUT, great special effects and it had heart!
Man! You are in a minority. That’s ok though… you are entitled to your opinion.
Favourite anymore jhon Carter movies please. Cool 🎞️🎦

I really wish they would make a nother one of when he returns with the same cast members I really liked the movie
It won’t be the same because Disney would just make him a women and have the movie bad guys be all straight people and anyone who doesn’t support The far left is a nazi
I like this movie. I have no idea why it got bad reviews. Just goes to show reviewers are full of shit.

Estou aguardando o retorno do 2º filme até hoje, esse filme é muito bom
I agree
Não foi bem nas bilheterias apesar de eu amar tb, é pouca a chance.
Five stars clean movie no filth love story
John Carter was a excellent movie there should of been a john Carter 2
Not now because Disney doesn’t like strong men or real women anymore
I love that movie, Valerian is such a good movie too.Unfortunately both are super underrated
i loved this film can we have more like it
I love how this movie makes no damn sense but still remains entertaining
2023 i love it 😍❤️ January 27, 2022

Ich habe die Bücher von John Carter in meiner Jugend geliebt.
WOW! Glad I missed it!
End credits its the best part for me.
Such a great, but underrated film. While not exactly true to the source materiel, it kept the spirit of the books.
A mi siempre ne gusto la peli es ficcion😂😂😂❤
very underrated
I would abandoned earth for Dejah Thoris as well.
John Carter - Best Moments.....should have played the whole movie!!😅
This is a great movie, and it deserves a sequel. Disney did this movie dirty when they cut the marketing budget (a few months before the opening, I think 🤔). I believe they changed the title or the logo before the opening also.
This movie was actually good. I always try to figure out why there was a campaign to tarnish it.
The best !!!!
The only thing I don't like it's him jumping like craaazy almost in every scene!

Old guy here, I read the books...
Carter of mars , Carson of Venus, Mucker , etc ..
Amazing video
Some hot stuff! In jr hi i read all this guys Tarzan books...we moved before i could get to Carter.
I enjoyed it too, made more sense than cloud atlas that's for sure

The concept of him being superhuman in Mars is silly, he can’t possibly be strong from low gravity alone I believe he’s enhanced in some way
This should of been called Panza Dragoon 🙏🏽
Never ceases to make me laugh 8:53
This movie is very good actually
When I’m asked what is one movie I love but everyone else did not like, I always say John Carter
beautiful land at the end
Awesome movie 😁

Virginia!!!! Great flik!
fastest petdog ever highest jumps and a very nice story..sorry i forget..best lookin princess and cesar is also onboard..thx
There is a book printed around the turn of the last century named The Princess of Mars. That is the same exact story. I read the book in the’60s.
