I am in love with this little guy. Go see John Carter and find out why. I will call him Bruno.
It will also make you love Lake Powell just a little bit more. Its a little bit of Shrek I, and III meets Princess Bride meets Jar Jar Binks. But when you think that Edgar Rice Burrows is the father of Sci Fi -- and that this was penned 100 years ago -- it is truly the beginning. Sadly, attendance needs to pick up since it was #2 at the box office for opening weekend.
"A Princess of Mars" was originally published as "Under the Moons of Mars" by Norman Bean (Edgar Rice Burroughs'
pseudonym) in The All-Story (six pulp magazine issues February - July,
1912). Burroughs was originally afraid that he might be ridiculed for
writing such a tale, so he decided to use a pen name. The pseudonym was
supposed to be a pun "Normal Bean" (as in "I'm a normal being") to
reassure people, but the man who typeset the text thought it was a
mistake, so he changed it to "Norman". However, Burroughs' fears turned
out to be unfounded: the story and its sequels, collectively known as
the "Barsoom series", were almost as popular (and arguably more
influential) as those of his most famous creation, Tarzan. - sourced from IMDB.com http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0401729/trivia?tab=tr&item=tr0738847
