Over at Samizdata is a review of the movie John Carter. The movie is based on the Edger Rice Burroughs' 11-volume series of Sci-Fi novels about life on a fictionalized Mars, called Barsoom. The novels were published between 1912 and 1943.
My oldest son and I had talked about rounding up his younger brother and going to the movie the next time I was in Virginia. However, the handwriting was on the wall about the longevity of the movie in theaters. So, on Friday last my oldest son and I both went to the "six o'clock" showing. And we both made it our source of dinner. I had a hot dog, popcorn and yellow lemonade. He had two hot dogs, popcorn and a Diet Pepsi. (He gets a second hot dog because he is about four inches taller than I am.) Our actions were uncoordinated.
We both enjoyed ourselves.
