You may be wondering what a Greatest Living Author reads when he’s not writing. Well, how about a very literal Fairy Tale?

What better why to get into that Father's Day spirit than with a song about a father and song fighting each to the death?

Recommendation: John Carter

'"John Carter of Mars" makes it pretty obvious that it's a SciFi movie, and perhaps raises the question of "Who's John Carter? Why's he on Mars?". "John Carter", on the other hand, sounds like a movie about some dude.'
