John Carter English 3D Movie:

John Carter is set to be the first big event movie of 2012

John Carter is set to be the first big event movie of 2012 when it hits the big screen later this week.

Andrew Stanton makes his live action movie debut while Taylor Kitsch takes on the title role in what is the biggest movie of his career to date.

Stanton & Kitsch were joined by Samantha Morton, Willem Dafoe, Lynn Collins and producers Lindsey Collins & Jim Morris in London to talk about the new movie.

- MGM were going to make this movie as an animated picture way back in 1931 since then there have been several efforts to get it together, there was even one notion that Tom Cruise was going to be John Carter, so how come it’s taken so long to make this futuristic, science fiction film?

Lindsey Collins: There is so much that goes into a movie to begin with but to make a movie this bi takes that much and more. But I think that it’s the fact that the technology wasn’t ready, and I think that is why they wanted to make an animated movie initially to avoid all that technology thing.

When Andrew talked about it initially that was the biggest challenge because we wondered whether we would be able to be in a desert having a conversation between John Carter and Tars Tarkas and have it feel real.

Had you not been able to buy that simple scene then there would have been no point in shooting a really epic spectacle; it was one of the most difficult scenes to do and so we had to prove that the technology was up to the challenge.
