So, will you be seeing the 2011 Conan the Barbarian movie?

[Zebo]

I mainly watch B&W movies - the classics. Bogart, Hitchcock etc. So 3D is a few decades away for me. (like after I'm dead or over my dead body)

 

[Nunya]

they spend so much time on the 3D effects that they forget about the story and acting

I disagree. I think they make it 3d because of the story and acting.

If you can't make it good, make it 3d.

 

[oddyager]

Ugh, 3D? I feel like movies like this just have 3D thrown in to try to attract people for novelty, except they spend so much time on the 3D effects that they forget about the story and acting. Beowulf was a good example of that.

A bad movie with bad acting is one thing, but then a bad movie with bad acting and a 3D pointy object darting toward your face in every action scene makes it that much unbearable.

Conan didn't have much of a story or any acting either but it was different which made it an instant cult classic. I loved the original Conan movies and this remake just further reinforces the fact Hollywood has all but run out of creativity.

 

[Texashiker]

I will watch the movie with an open mind, but I seriously doubt its going to be better then the original.

 

[routan]

wasnt HHH (Triple H - wrestler) supposed to play Conan? He would have made a good Conan. You didnt need acting skills in the first movie. Just a Conan looking guy. This guy is def. not a brute.

 

[vi edit]

^ Like the 2008 "Rambo"?

That was sensitive? The movie was 30 minutes of Stalone gibbing people from a truck mounted 50 caliber machine gun.

 

[BrownShoes]

Hells no.

 

[Invisible Evil]

Will there be a camel punch in this Conan? If yes I will watch.

 

[vi edit]

Mongol General: What is best in life?
Conan: To crush your enemies, to see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentations of their women.

Be better if it was a donkey.

Anyways, This isn't a remake of Conan The Barbarian. This is based on a story from the comic books. It sounds like most of you don't really undestand just how long Conan has been around.Robert Howard wrote his 1st Conan story in 1932.

 

[Jeeebus]

Crom, I have never prayed to you before. I have no tongue for it. No one, not even you, will remember if we were good men or bad. Why we fought, or why we died. All that matters is that two stood against many. That's what's important! Valor pleases you, Crom... so grant me one request. Grant me revenge! And if you do not listen, then to HELL with you!

Not gonna beat that in the new movie.

 

[Sentrosi2121]

I've got a four letter word for Hollywood;

STOP

 

[zebano]

Hell no.

 

[AMDZen]

Rose McGowan

Sold

 

[SlitheryDee]

Of course I'll watch it. I don't expect much though. The original Conan was cheaply made and that somehow made it end up feeling gritty and realistic. This movie just looks cheap.

 

[BrownShoes]

Jehnna: I suppose nothing hurts you.
Conan: Only pain.

 

[AstroManLuca]

My wife just told me she wants to see it.

I thought she was fucking with me but she insisted. I still think she's fucking with me but hey, we'll see if she still wants to go see it when it's released.

Might have to Netflix the Conan with Arnold first.

 

[Homerboy]

DING!

I'll see it. It looks good in that "stupid action movie" kinda way.

 

[jorken]

To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of their women!

 

[purbeast0]

well the old movie sucks, although it is entertaining in the b-movie kind of way, so i doubt i'd base my decision on this one based on that one anyways.

 

[DesiPower]

Buzz off

 

[CPA]

When are the idiots in Hollyweird going to learn that certain movies simply cannot and should not be remade?

Especially one of the greatest movies ever. Yes, I said it - "GREATEST!"

 

[CPA]

Not gonna beat that in the new movie.

Can't beat that in most movies.

Conan is still and will probably always be my #1 most favorite movie.

People also don't give James Earl Jones enough credit in this movie. He was brilliant.

JEJ: /looking at Conan/ "Contemplate it on the Tree of Woe." /Looks up to bodyguards/ "Crucify him."
