    There's NO WAY Disney can do that story right! There is a fundamental disconnect between family friendly Disney, and Edgar Rice Burrough's "She was as destitute of clothes as the green Martians who accompanied her; indeed, save for her highly wrought ornaments she was entirely naked, nor could any apparel have enhanced the beauty of her perfect and symmetrical figure."

    But they're doing it anyway...

    The movie looks promissing, but then again, looks can be decieving when it's coming from a firm that built itself on illusions and make believe.

    Yeah the clips are sweet.

    Don't give up hope-- sometimes Disney will surprise ya. Remember, 48 Hrs. was a Disney flic.
