[...] take long for people to notice that a small independent studio called The Asylum had rushed its own John Carter of Mars movie, called “A Princess of Mars” (after the title of the first book) into production. [...]

No worries, Michael.

Here’s some more images from “Princess of Mars”. Traci Lords as Dejah Thoris:

Comment on Trailer for “Where The Wild Things Are” by Michael Martinez

I really enjoyed it. I wrote a review here. In short, I thought it was more of a grown up film but I think if parents discuss it with their kids it will be quite all right to take them. There are a few points in the film where I wondered if Max wasn't in serious danger. It gradually dawned on me just who the monsters really were. It's a fantastic movie but it's more of a thinking movie than an escapist fantasy.

Sorry about the mixup on your name. I’ll fix it in the article after I post this comment.

And I appreciate the additional detail.

I don’t mind low budget productions. What I mind is wooden acting, bad scripting, and terrible direction. We’ve seen that on large and small budget productions.

These guys just caught me by surprise. I’ve been trying to scan blogs and find everything “John Carter” for over a year.

Mark Atkins is better known as a cinematographer. He takes that role for “A Princess of Mars”, as well as that of director. However, on the other Burroughs film you mention, “Land That Time Forgot”, he was cinematographer only. It’s already available (direct-to-DVD). I liked it more than many critics and if you’re interested my review is here:

It’s a modernisation of the original novel — and, like all of The Asylum’s films, low-budget. But for me it worked.

The Asylum is a rather large exploitation production company whose films range from terrible to good (in a low-budget way). They’re very prolific and are known for doing films that in title and concept mimic upcoming or current big-budget films. They’ve been branching out a bit more lately and to my mind making some decent independent films.

I’ll be posting some more on the Asylum’s “A Princess of Mars” soon.

[By the way, I'm not Robert T. Hood. Robert M. Hood actually, but I write without the middle initial.]

Comment on Trailer for “The Golden Age of Pulp Fiction Stories by L. Ron Hubbard” by Peter Breyer

Cool. I like the trailer myself quite a bit and have read many of the stories. They are definitely over-the-top fun pulp fiction.

Comment on Xenite.Org and SF-Fandom support search for missing child by Delilah

Thank you so much for recognizing Peace4 the Missing and for the link on your Special Sites.

We’ve found that the general public has no idea of the magnitude this epidemic in our country, not only of abductions, but many of the missing have met with foul play, and all their family members want, need and hope for is to bring them back home.

I’ve had the absolute pleasure meeting with family members who, despite the ongoing tragedy of their daily lives, have found a place that gives them comfort, solace, and a purpose.

They unselfishly reach out their hands of hope to others in the same situation. They have found that together we can do great things, even if we can’t bring them all home, they know they are not alone in this journey.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for promoting our site.
