Re: John Carter of Mars

Yes. I read the first couple of books right before the movie came out. I have to say that while I liked the movie, I wasn't a big fan of the books. I chalk him being a Confederate Soldier up a bit to the time it was written, but still yes it is hard to reconcile that with him being a hero. And honestly the books came across as way more racist than the movie. It seems they edited that stuff out for the adaption.

Yeah, the movie came across pretty racist too. The whole apache business at the start, the "Red men" thing. The white saviour thing. I want to like it but...

I liked it in spite of those bits. The beginning did make me cringe, but once he got to Mars I mostly enjoyed it.
