John Carter of Mars


I grew up on Edgar Rice Burroughs novels, and John Carter of Mars was probably my favorite.  Even over Tarzan.  Carter was an eternal warrior and I loved the science fiction background, especially while I was growing up in the 1970s and the space race was the thing.

I read an article today that talked about the upcoming movie (2012).  I hadn't really paid attention to Taylor Kitsch, the guy playing John Carter, because I'm going to see the movie anyway, no matter who's starring.  But I have to admit, Kitsch has a good look for the character.  I can definitely see him as John Carter.
