Conan the Barbarian was one of those movies I'd watch dozens of times as a kid, and for the longest time, I was able to quote almost every line of James Earl Jones. That movie though, was written at a time, when everyone seemingly read Mario Puzo's the godfather, and then tried to base the atmosphere, pacing, and substance on that book's persistence. Now-a-days it's all emo pop, and glitter gaga. Men want to be more like women, and women aren't dames anymore, but are power brokers and women of substance; instead of a sandwich made with love, you're given dry bread with a slab of spam on it. (if you ask me, I blame Woman of Substance; the movie and the book).

I've watched that movie a few weeks ago and I have to say ... I'm surprised about JM's acting. True, this Conan-movie isn't that ... well, it's not really a highlight but for my opinion this depends more on the script than on JM's acting (and that's quite an honour from me. Who knows me also know that I never warmed up with his "Ronon"-character). In fact Jason's Conan fits a bit better into the Howard-canon as Arnies did (sorry).

...Yep I'm half way through watching the new "Conan" movie on DVD and "this guys voice is familiar" I says to myself as I hardly ever read credits or reviews and I jump to the end saying "is Conan, Ronon Dex?" and Yahoo! Jason Mamoa is the star - yeah okay the movie came out months ago But I didn't know, Good for you Jason I was wondering what happened to all the actors of one of the greatest shows on television to be pulled off the air with another 5 years of adventures to go and what 38 million other loyal Star Gate Atlantis fans stunned as well - But I love seeing our Fav's still kickin' in new movies and nowadays their aint no star trek, star gate or firefly to watch - we're starving for Atlantis to return.........Attached Files

I loved seeing that! When I first read about it, I said the same thing, "Ronan is Conan!" Thought that was quite ironic It was also a very good movie (imo).Just because something is unknown, does not necessarily mean that it needs to be feared. Trust yourself, and the rest will unfold. ~Teyla Emmagen~
