Why haven't we gotten a sequel?
There was a movie called Mars Needs Moms that flopped, so the suits decided that audiences must hate Mars and changed the name of the movie so it sounds like it's just some guy. I am not making this up.
i enjoyed this movie too
>>219768227He was a surprisingly awesome sidekick in that movie. Especially since he wasn't necessary at all.
>>219768313Watched it with gf the other day. She loved it too>>219768314He is pretty fucking cool. She almost cried thinking he would die trying to save carter
>>219768227Remember when people said the movie looked good, but didn't watch it because they don't know who "John Carter" is. And that studios can't just expect audiences to go gaga over a simple name as a movie title? Same people went nuts over a movie simply titled John Wick. And yes, it's the same people, cause they were the same forums.
>>219768267It sounds silly, but the general public are stupid enough to throw all of their money around based on stupid superficial reasons, I can't blame investors for wanting every precaution taken.
>>219768227>you can't just have an unknown name as a title>fuck the trailer, the audience doesn't know who John Carter is>how dumb are these studios to just call it John Carter. No wonder it flopped!
>>219768464They had Keanu for people to latch onto with Wick as opposed to the largely unrecognized actor as Carter. I like this movie more. Its got a great story, its wholesome and unapologetically white
>>219768511Great reviews terrible numbers I guess. Shame really bc the story lends itself to a sequel
>>219768227I always wanted someone to use the technology and "watchers" principle from this movie and use it for something else.
>>219768227holy fuck i actually thought this was some "BIG MALLOW" or "CHOMPO" pit bull lineage picture until i saw the words "John Carter"
>>219768490yes but you can't invent false reasoning and make huge financial decisions based on your hallucination.people thought mars needs moms looked like shit visually, tonally and in terms of pacing. the only thing it's remembered for are a couple of horny designs for shitty CG characters. the planet had nothing to do with it and everyone knows it except those playing devil's advovate for people that never face accountability
>>219768661That would be cool. Kinda like the archons in gnotic folklore >>219768690No. That is Woola a martian dog. What are those things in caps you wrote?
>>219768227It looks like a penis.
>>219770235You are a faggot though.
What do you want a sequel to be about? I thought chessmen of mars was mid but seeing a giant chessboard with guys that kill each other in live action would be kino.
>>219768851>dat picWho is a good boyYou are the good boy Yes you are
>Guy who can jump really high has to save a princess from another world from an evil ruler with a fleet of airships and he also has a green pet
>>219768227>the suits decided that audiences must hate Mars and changed the name of the movie so it sounds like it's just some guycombine that with some execs also just not liking it and trying to sabotage the project>>219768267because it flopped Disney allowed the rights to lapse around 2015. the writer/director released a plot outline for the sequel and honestly I'm sort of glad it didn't get made, it did a bunch of stuff that's really annoying for a sequel to do
