I dunno. I guess I'm just too used to seeing Ahnuld play Conan to see someone else in the role....sigpic Oh then, what's this? Big flashy lighty thing, that's what brought me here! Big flashy lighty things have got me written all over them. Not actually. But give me time. And a crayon. -
I'm not real hip on his dialect. It doesn't sound even remotely Hyborean [of course, who knows what Hyborean would've sounded like outside of Robert E. Howard). The language they're using seems too----modern and not archaic enough. That's just MHO, though...sigpic Oh then, what's this? Big flashy lighty thing, that's what brought me here!

Cimmerians are supposed to be proto-Celts, so a bit of an Irish or Scottish rural brogue would be suitable. I think his build is pretty close to what Howard described, really. He's about the right height and not too big. People forget Conan was described as more panther than bear. I also just realized I'm probably telling you something you already know.Comment

I still can't buy into that world because the guy doesn't have dialect I would envision for a barbarian. He sounds like your standard 20-something in southern California that would pull up at a drive thru at Rallys. What I see and what I hear conflict, so it's hard to sell this character as Conan for me.Comment

I saw a work print of the film a few weeks ago-- I didn't care for it as a CONAN movie. It's actually not that horrible, but that Jason Momoa dude is NOT the Conan I know and love. I'm sure it'll do well at the box office-- unlike another movie that comes out tomorrow...
