    Synopsis
    "John Carter"(of Mars) --a sweeping action-adventure set on the mysterious and exotic planet of Barsoom (Mars). "John Carter" is based on a classic novel by Edgar Rice Burroughs, whose highly imaginative adventures served as inspiration for many filmmakers, both past and present. The film tells the story of war-weary, former military captain John Carter (Taylor Kitsch), who is inexplicably transported to Mars where he becomes reluctantly embroiled in a conflict of epic proportions amongst the inhabitants of the planet, including Tars Tarkas (Willem Dafoe) and the captivating Princess Dejah Thoris (Lynn Collins). In a world on the brink of collapse, Carter rediscovers his humanity when he realizes that the survival of Barsoom and its people rests in his hands

    We can thank Men in Black 3D for moving the release of Battleship
    a week sooner, to May 18, 2012
    Described as an 'epic-alien-story' peter Berg has a little to say about it: The aliens, called The Regents, came here looking for something, but they are not wholly evil bent on world domination. We did nothing to provoke them, but they still have an ecologicalinterest in our world. Also they fire ballistics, not ray guns and will behalf-CG half-”man in a suit” technology. But sadly, their ship is damagedsomehow and that becomes another part of the plot.” So there's somegood guys & some strange bad-guys, so its not just an action movie
    but a sci-fy angel as well.
