Not being modern bodybuilder buff is why he looks the part more, nobody back then was built like Arnie.

But while they got that right, i'll bet anything they get the rest wrong... i smell a quick dvd release.

He looks the part fine, I'm more worried about how he sounds.

Never watched Baywatch. I liked him on Stargate Atlantis but I didn't think anything he did on there really screamed "lead actor in major motion picture".

He must be doing something right, though, because they wouldn't have hired him on Game of Thrones if he didn't have some chops.

It's not like Arnold did a whole hell of a lot of acting in the first one.

No but he was entertaining.

You guys are killing me. Conan was a blood thirsty barbaric beast not some dark haired maybelline Fabio.

He talked funny but at least looked the part.

Absolutely. The original is one of my childhood favorites. Kind of unfair for me to expect this to live up to that.

Actually, he would have been a dark haired Hun, not a blonde Norwegian.

What's the source? The comics?

Honest question. I loved the original as a kid... and I know there are Conan comics... but I have no idea which came first.

This supposed to be Conan, not Hawaii's model of the year. Why does Hollywood always have to do this? What's next? Here is Conan going down the runway wearing a ravishing two piece.................. Give me a ****ing break.

BIG_DADDY 03-13-2011 02:55 AM

Dude, I read the whole series. It was the only thing I really got into reading as a kid. How the **** can you post that picture? What, you see Conan as being friggen Mowgli?
