I was watching the commentary for Zathura on my DVD, and they mentioned another upcoming movie project called John Carter of Mars. Apparently it is a movie version of Edgar Rice Burrough's Barsoom novels. In the first book, A Princess of Mars John Carter leaps all over the place upon arrival on Mars, 15 feet up in the air! A side from their being life on Mars, is this overdoing the low gravity bit just a little? Mars gravity is one third that of Earth, I think a human being that is unencumbered by any gear such as a spacesuit for instance should be able to leap three times the normal height on Earth, is that correct? Also how much advantage would a Earth human have over creatures that were adapted to the Martian Environment? Would a green martian be a feasible creature for a Mars with a breathable atmosphere?
I was just wondering, if one did a semi realistic Mars movie, not the Mars that is, but the Mars that could have been, what would you put in it? Also has anyone heard about that movie project? Zathura came out in 2005, so if their working on it, it may be in production already.
