I didn't realize it was mostly filmed in Moab, UT. I've been to almost all the spots where they filmed. It made it harder to watch the film knowing where they were shooting when it is supposed to be on another planet. This post was edited on 1/14 at 1:11 pm

Certainly better than episode I. I thought this thread would be how they are basically the same story and I was going to say that lucas stole a lot from john carter storyline.

OP's intent to shite all over the movie is misplaced. However, feel free to shite all over SW Eps. 1-3.

John Carter is well liked here. It was a fun adventure film. I'm actually dissapointed that we won't see a sequel.

Everything was junky and used. It was real. My intention is not to shite on JC, but more to the point of how Disney handles the science fiction/fantasy genre. Which is to say, not up to the standards of star wars and empire.
