I am actually looking forward to this. Jason Momoa was great in Stargate Atlantis.

Well, too much CGI (as usually) but apart from that it had everything you would expect from a Conan movie. He'll never beat Arnold and his accent though.

I'd be happy if it were more faithful to Robert E. Howard's original, but I don't have my hopes up.

Yeah, that would be cool. Still, I think this looks like it might be good fun.

I think I will wait until it comes out on DvD and not rent it.

Just from the trailer (are these the best parts?) looks like another CGI fest.

I am sure it will find an audience and I hope they will enjoy it.

KRUM I'll probably wait until it comes out on DVD and let someone else buy it before I watch it

Jason Momoa: a mascara-wearing Hawaiian emo!
And too much of the "Clash of the Titans" imo.

Indeed, if that were the case it would be awesome.

I liked Clash of the Titans. Got exactly what I expected from it: Big, stupid movie featuring guys with swords doing silly things. I thought it was a blast and even given all the glistening half naked guys it was still less camp than the one from the 80s.

I also liked it when the hero picked up the clockwork owl from the first film and looked at it before his friend came over and said: "You should leave that. It is irritating."
