First looks at Jason Momoa as Conan...

Might be cool, if I wasn't completely sick of the grungy medieval thing by now. Seems like they release 3 or 4 of these movies a year.
 
He has the look.

Think he's learned to act since SGA was cancelled?

(Cold, I know, but c'mon)
 
Yet another Conan? This is getting tiresome.



"Yet another" . . . ? I'm confused.

The last CONAN movie was twenty-six years ago. And there have only been two CONAN movies to date.

A third film, over a quarter-century later, doesn't strike me as excessive . . . .
 
That sucked. There is room for more, if it's good.

There is ALWAYS room for more, if it's good.

Er, the last CONAN movie was twenty-six years ago. And there have only been two movies to date.

And various TV series and TV movies.


I only know of one short-lived syndicated series, plus a couple of cartoons. What tv-movies?

Compared to, say, eleven STAR TREK movies, nine BATMAN films, six STAR WARS films, four INDIANA JONES movies, three MATRIX movies, and M knows how many Bond flicks. And that's not counting all the cartoon and tv versions of STAR WARS, STAR TREK, BATMAN, etc.

CONAN is practically virgin territory by comparison! :)
 
He doesn't have Conan's blue eyes or black hair, but at least his musculature is much more appropriate for the character.
 
It's a figher's physique, not a muscle-builder's physique. He looks the part of an itinerant warrior.

Fictitiously yours, Trent Roman

Exactly. Physically, he's just where he should be. Hopefully his acting will be up to snuff.

We're talking about a remake when the only person to play Conan on films previously was the Governator.

I didn't think Mamoa was that good on SGA, but he's Academy Award caliber compared to Arnold back then.
 
It looks like a cheap SyFy production. But looks can be deceiving, of course... It is hard to judge from candid snapshots like those ones.

I don't know, I thought Arnie was quite entertaining. I think people underrate Arnie's mugging and delivery even if wouldn't be Academy material in the classic sense.

It was entertaining in a turn off your brain kind of way, but c'mon his delivery was hilarious. Like when he was yelling at their God or whatever "TA HELL WITH YOU"

Ralf Moeller looked the part.

What's "SGA?"
