John Carter

I went to see the movie John Carter this past. It is based on the old Edgar Rice Burroughs's stories about the princess of Mars. Although there has been some discussion about where these stories are science fiction, Edgar Rice Burroughs seems to be a good storyteller, and I recommend the movie.
