The riddle of steel  

Posted by Midian111


Between the time when the oceans drank Atlantis, and the rise of the sons of Aryas, there was an age undreamed of. And onto this, Conan, destined to wear the jeweled crown of Aquilonia upon a troubled brow…

Ah yes, when I first heard those lines I got goosebumps all over. Conan was my window into the world of fantasy and metal. Arnie was an action idle for a lot of people but somehow Hollywood manages to screw that up too.
There is going to be a third Conan movie without Arnie. There is absolutely no way that could give the same effect. They could CGI Arnie and it was cost like hell and look stupid or find an equal actor with the same muscles, killer look and cheesy screams. Some thought that The Rock can pull it off. I doubt it though he looks too much like a nice guy. I think they should get some bodybuilder from the Balkans. That would suit Conan's character nicely at least in the physical part.
If you are not familiar with the screams take a look at this go to about 3:50 on the video:

Now that you know what Arnold's "Aaaaghaaa" is we should take a look at his whole character. What better to do that then to take a look at some of the situations he has been in.

Killing the huge snake scenes was awesome! There is no other way to say it. Seeing his huge eyes while chopping that snakes head of was brilliant. Blood gushing out and later being covered over a topless women. Seriously is there anything more brutal.

Well Conan can do better! How about killing a demigod in front of all of his followers and the demigod is Earl Jones (Darth Vader).

Ok so the new movie has to be a variation of cheesy lines and awesome brutality. However what it shouldn't be is:
Conan's kid (seriously no!)
prequel (that's like the first part. Children should not play main characters in this movie)

I am eager to hear your thoughts on the movie. What would you like to see in it, what actor should play Conan?

Thanks for reading and pray to Crom for a good movie!
