Yep. Agreed.

But, sorry, that dude ain't no Ahnold. (No, I don't mean him being a huuuuuge cheatin' man-*SQUEE*, either :roll: .)

Plus, what little he "talked" in the preview, I found his voice to be highly aggravating :littleangry: .

Jason Momoa did a great job playing Ronon on Atlantis and seems a natural for action roles like these. I don't know if he can pull off a great Conan, but it won't be for lack of action on his part.

I'd rather see him cast as Kull. I think it would be a better fit.

Did the Conan movie suck? The redhead chick from the trailer looked good. :popcorn:

I'm surprised the Mighty Samson series sold so little with the Conan properties still doing well at Dark Horse.

The overall lack of promotion for the whole Gold Key line didn't help either.

I actually just watched the blu ray 3d version over the holidays (got it as a present). It wasn't great, but it wasn't too bad for a simple action flick.
