Aspect Radio #68: John Carter & Its Backlash, 21 Jump Street


Listen Later

Ben and Corey butt heads this week but not on Andrew Stanton’s science fiction adventure “John Carter,” which delivers like a blockbuster should despite falling into the dreaded all-time box office disaster category.

The guys don’t get the backlash in the wake of a befuddling marketing campaign that failed to connect with audiences, even when the $250 million-budgeted film has mainstream appeal.

Where the hosts disagree is on the cop comedy “21 Jump Street,” starring Jonah Hill and Cullman native Channing Tatum, who shows signs of life in this very funny film. Corey thinks it’s a modern comedy classic, but Ben thinks that’s stretching it a little.

They spend extra time dissecting the “John Carter” debacle, wondering how a Disney tent-pole release could ever fall victim to so much negative criticism before it ever played in a single theater.
