28 May 2012 9:46 AM, PDT | TheHDRoom | See recent TheHDRoom news »
Disney's John Carter Blu-ray 3D, Blu-ray and DVD release is a little over a week away on June 5. The film is a lot better than its lackluster box office performance indicates and should do quite well on home video.
To help pass the time and build up some momentum headed into the forthcoming John Carter home video release, Disney is sharing a sneak peek at some of the bonus features you'll find included in the Blu-ray sets.
The first John Carter Blu-ray bonus feature sneak peek offers a series of CGI progression stills. It is followed by a concept art slideshow that looks at the elaborate sets and costumes created for the big budget flick.
John Carter is directed by Andrew Stanton and stars Taylor Kitsch, Lynn Collins, Willem Dafoe, Ciaran Hinds, Dominic West, Bryan Cranston, Samantha Morton, Thomas Haden Church and Mark Strong.

From Academy Award®--winning filmmaker Andrew Stanton comes "John Carter"—a sweeping action-adventure set on the mysterious and exotic planet of Barsoom (Mars).

The film tells the story of war-weary, former military captain John Carter (Taylor Kitsch), who is inexplicably transported to Mars where he becomes reluctantly embroiled in a conflict of epic proportions amongst the inhabitants of the planet, including Tars Tarkas (Willem Dafoe) and the captivating Princess Dejah Thoris (Lynn Collins). In a world on the brink of collapse, Carter rediscovers his humanity when he realizes that the survival of Barsoom and its people rests in his hands.

John Carter DVD/Blu-Ray Art Revealed
31 March 2012 2:00 PM, PDT | GeekTyrant | See recent GeekTyrant news »
Though it had no release date scheduled, Walt Disney Pictures has already released the DVD/Blu-Ray/Blu-Ray 3D art for one of their most Notable films so far this year, Andrew Stanton's John Carter.
I thoroughly enjoyed this film. This project started in animation and it took an animation director to bring it to life. Stanton may not get all the praise that fellow Pixar alumni Brad Bird got for his live-action debut, Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol, but he does his best here even though the heart of his animated films aren’t here. Another thing that doesn’t help is that there are times in the film where it gets slow and expositional. Taylor Kitsch and Lynn Collins both contribute fine performances. Although his character is featured prominently in the trailers and TV spots, Willem Dafoe’s Tars Tarkas, although a very good use of performance capture, is »

John Carter Blu-ray 3D Pre-Orders Live at Amazon; Cover Art Revealed
30 March 2012 9:24 PM, PDT | TheHDRoom | See recent TheHDRoom news »
Disney's John Carter starring Taylor Kitsch and Lynn Collins may find a second wind on Blu-ray and DVD if pre-release buzz at Amazon.com is to be believed.
In a matter of hours, the four-disc Blu-ray 3D combo pack version of John Carter went up for pre-order and shot up to the number one spot on Amazon's Blu-ray bestsellers chart. This type of immediate sales dominance is usually reserved for the Star Wars, Twilight and Indiana Jones films of the world. In this instance, there's a lot of interest for the well-reviewed but poor box office performer that cost Disney roughly $200 million in write-offs.
The John Carter Blu-ray 3D combo pack will include the 2D Blu-ray version, the DVD version, and a digital copy. A Blu-ray and DVD combo pack version will also be available. I also have it on good authority to expect both Blu-ray releases to include making-of materials, »

Dennis O’Neil: Ode To John Carter
29 March 2012 5:00 AM, PDT | Comicmix.com | See recent Comicmix news »
Let the laments commence; it’s official – John Carter is a flop. Looks like the movie’s makers will take a $200,000,000 bath.
We finally trekked north to the monsterplex and settled ourselves to witness a showing of the flop before anyone was certain of its flophood. We did, and we left the theater and got into Mari’s car and drove south and were home.
We’d seen the film. And felt very little. We’d seen it and there didn’t seem to be a whole lot more to say.
Why?
Leaving the theater, I wasn’t irritated, or insulted. If I wanted to write a quibbly review I probably could – look ye hard and ye can find garbage, brethren; yeah, the writing was flattish and somehow the fabricated world seemed to be just a jot too fabricated. But nothing on the screen was godawful. The shots were in focus. »

Why Disney are looking at a $200m hit on John Carter
22 March 2012 3:26 PM, PDT | Flickeringmyth | See recent Flickeringmyth news »
With Disney's $250m-budgeted space fantasy John Carter rapidly slipping down the charts - having banked a global haul of just $184m to date - the studio have released a statement via Deadline confirming that they expect to make a major loss on the Edgar Rice Burroughs adaptation:
“In light of the theatrical performance of John Carter ($184 million global box office), we expect the film to generate an operating loss of approximately $200 million during our second fiscal quarter ending March 31. As a result, our current expectation is that the Studio segment will have an operating loss of between $80 and $120 million for the second quarter. As we look forward to the second half of the year, we are excited about the upcoming releases of The Avengers and Brave, which we believe have tremendous potential to drive value for the Studio and the rest of the company.”

Why John Carter is Star Wars for a new generation
20 March 2012 2:39 AM, PDT | Den of Geek | See recent Den of Geek news »
John Carter hasn’t exactly soared at the box office, but as Duncan explains, it’s still a wonderful family fantasy in the tradition of Star Wars…
As the end credits rolled for John Carter, I glanced around to see the reactions on the other audience members’ faces and spotted a mesmerised young boy, sat next to his dad, his huge 3D glasses still dutifully on his face. I turned to my wife and said, “Well there’s going to be a whole generation of kids that grow up thinking John Carter of Mars [unlike the advertising, I’m not willing to let the second bit of the title go] is the greatest movie ever.” And indeed, I hope they do.
Like so many of us, I grew up on Star Wars - it was and still is the greatest and most important franchise of all time, for me, with The Empire Strikes Back still firmly my favourite film, despite strong competition over the years from the likes of Indiana Jones, »
John Carter Box Office: Disney/$200 Million Loss
19 March 2012 10:50 PM, PDT | Alt Film Guide | See recent Alt Film Guide news »
Taylor Kitsch, Lynn Collins, John Carter Disney has announced that John Carter's disappointing box-office returns means the Andrew Stanton-directed sci-fier / actioner will lose $200 million this quarter. The studio's total operating loss is estimated to range between $80 and $120 million. John Carter has been a downright flop in North America, where it has grossed only $53.22 million after ten days. Overseas, however, despite stories to the contrary, the film is performing well, having collected an estimated $126.1 million to date. Had John Carter cost $100 million, all would been (reasonably) well. But with a reported price tag of $250 million, plus another estimated $100 million or so in marketing / distribution expenses, John Carter would need to earn about $700 million to recover its cost at the worldwide box office. Disney will likely fare much better with the upcoming The Avengers, starring Chris Evans, Robert Downey Jr, Chris Hemsworth, Scarlett Johansson, and Jeremy Renner as various Marvel superheroes, »

‘John Carter’ translates Burroughs’s vision with integrity
19 March 2012 8:52 PM, PDT | SoundOnSight | See recent SoundOnSight news »
Written by Andrew Stanton, Mark Andrews and Michael Chabon, based on the novel A Princess of Mars by Edgar Rice Burroughs

*****
John Carter and the Princesses of Mars
The one thing that John Carter does better than anything else is understand who John Carter (Taylor Kitsch) is, what his journey needs to be and how to properly illustrate that journey.
The start of John Carter’s journey (as told to Edgar Rice Burroughs through Carter’s diaries) finds him in the Arizona territory on a quixotic and near-suicidal quest for a treasure that may not even exist. It seems like Carter, perhaps unhinged by his personal losses, has devoted his life to an all or nothing pursuit: either Carter finds enough gold to achieve the best kind »

Fans of John Carter campaign for sequel as Disney's Martian sci-fi epic tops UK box office and makes $100m worldwide
18 March 2012 6:06 PM, PDT | The Geek Files | See recent The Geek Files news »
More than 3,000 fans of John Carter are campaigning for a sequel as Disney's Martian sci-fi epic defies the doomsayers to top the UK box office and open with more than $100million worldwide.
With a budget reported as an astronomical $250million - but rumoured to be even higher - and abysmal marketing, the film was widely expected to be a complete flop.
Mixed reviews from critics didn't help to give the film a strong sales pitch and it's true to say that the Us launch was disappointing, with John Carter making $30.2million and debuting at No2, unable to nudge Universal's animated feature The Lorax from holding on to the top spot for a second week.
But it did fairly well overseas, taking almost £71million. In the UK, the film has topped the box office chart, knocking The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel into second place.

John Carter Box Office: Domestic Flop/Overseas Hit
18 March 2012 2:42 PM, PDT | Alt Film Guide | See recent Alt Film Guide news »
John Carter movie: Taylor Kitsch and pal John Carter has definitely flopped in North America, where the Disney release has collected only $13.51 million this weekend, March 16-18 — down an alarming 55% from a week ago according to studio estimates found at Box Office Mojo. Directed by Wall-e's Andrew Stanton and featuring Taylor Kitsch, Lynn Collins, and Willem Dafoe, John Carter's North American gross currently stands at $53.17 million. The sci-fier / adventure / fantasy reportedly cost an astronomical $250 million, in addition to an estimated $100 million in marketing and distribution expenses in North America alone. That's the bad news. In fact, the really, really bad news for a studio that last year had to cope with a box-office disaster named Mars Needs Moms. Perhaps Disney should stay forever away from any more Mars-set adventures — even if the studio chooses to drop the planet's name from their films' titles, as was the case with John Carter. »
