    To be literally correct, the first picture must have Dejah Thoris and John Carter completely naked since the Red Martians didn't believe in clothes. The second picture is better but John is still in his loin cloth. He must be afraid he doesn't measure up to the other Martians.

    "I'm afraid this amazing illustration is not concept art for that film."


    This just ruins it for me. Vellejo and Frazetta define this type of work for me and I can't imagine not using their style for the movie. It just won't work.

    @OldDog1: that's the real question with this whole project, Andrew Stanton is one of my favourite directors and I'm sure his John Carter will be good - BUT - Disney/Pixar DOES NOT release films with a PG-13/R rating, which is what this film should have, JCoM is very violent and full of boobies...how much of the book will actually get on the screen?

    But, more importantly, BEWBS. And for the first time on this site, a bum has caught more than my passing attention.

    @crashedpc: The bum is nice. I wonder who's idea it was to replace the 'damsel in distress' pose in the b&w with the 'taking a power dump on an invisible toilet' pose in the final product.

    @Gann: I was thinking more of a "I'm about to fire off a Hadoken" pose, but thanks for the image. Perhaps the bare bum did not compute with the power dump pose. Just a thought.

    Mars, apparently, is extremely warm. Even the gorillas are shaved.
