Max the Movie Guy's rating:
John Carter's coming out next week, and the original books inspired many of the most popular sci-fi franchises we know today. For example, "Jedi" and "Padawan" aren't original names. Unoriginality gets complained about a lot these days, but does it always make the movie lame?
