Message board for fans of the ‘John Carter’ movie and of ERB
by Elmo on May.04, 2012, under Blog, John Carter movie
Check out the message board of the “Take Me Back to Barsoom” Facebook group.
It’s getting pretty active, with discussions among long-time fans of Edgar Rice Burroughs and fans just discovering the Master of Adventure’s work because of the movie “John Carter.” I think the coolest thing about the movie, despite the poor job Disney did marketing it, is that so many people who saw it without ever having heard of ERB are beginning to discover his rich imagination.
It’s so fantastic to watch as newcomers begin reading the books that captured my imagination long ago. Part of me wishes I could be beginning that journey.
The message board is here.

Hi Elmo: Being a long time ERB fan, I’m delighted to explore this website. A month or so ago I posted an idea on the Take Me Back to Barsoom forum page for a John Carter movie trailer. You had expressed some interest in it so I thought I’d send you a link to the finished product in case you/your fellow bloggers were interested in checking it out. Take Care ! Bruce Kaplan
