Burroughs’ Barsoom series was chock full of the adventures of John Carter, interplanetary conflict rife with drama, and lots of great stuff just waiting to be adapted.
Given all this, it sounds crazy to even consider bringing this franchise back, but man, there’s just so much potential here.
Disney bet so big on John Carter because of its source material, which was provided by iconic author (and creator of Tarzan) Edgar Rice Burroughs.
It could be fantastic, but it would take a good show of faith by Disney and some audiences willing to give this franchise another chance.
