John Carter, three years on

John Carter (Of Mars) was on TV here this evening, and perhaps coincidentally io9 has a feature of concept art and animation tests for an earlier attempt to adapt the stories to film. Contains more floating islands and even less clothing.

The film itself remains more fun than its disastrous reception indicates, although it still has the problem of being the story Dune deconstructed and Star Wars reconstructed in the decades it took to be adapted.
