There's still almost two weeks before we all get a full look at just how much latticework Conan Barbarian will burst through in the franchise reboot, but already one man is dreaming up new, possibly stronger room dividers for Conan Barbarian to burst through. That man? Conan Barbarian himself, Jason Momoa.
In an interview with Crave Online, Momoa revealed that if his upcoming film is successful, he's already got a sequel story written and submitted to the studio for review. Such initiative, Conan Barbarian! With this introductory film reportedly focusing heavily on the villainous Stephen Lang and Rose McGowan's forehead, and the trailers only hinting at the appearance of one giant snake thing, Momoa explained that he'd like to make the next film more like that Clash of the Titansmovie, in that he'd "get into more of the mythical creatures, you know?" Well, sure, I know, Conan Barbarian, just don't overcomplicate it. As a wise, absurdly-muscular Austrian man once said, focus on the lamentation of the women and the rest should take care of itself.
"Run from me, and I will tear apart the mountains to find you," Conan the Barbarian promises Stephen Lang, the man who killed his father. Well, in this latest trailer for the film, the Cimmerian doesn't really tear apart any mountains, but man, he sure fucks up a thin, decorative screen that was tastefully dividing a room! No Pier 1 Imports home collection will be spared until you're dead, Lang!

While the first Conan the Barbarian trailer was all CLANG!, ROAR!, KABLOOEY!, this one is like SPLAT!, GUITAR!, MY NAME'S CONAN! I guess that's a little better.

Conan sure isn't going to let Harry Potter have the final word on needlessly ember-filled poster design. Following yesterday's reveal of a primitive, post-meth-addiction Ron Perlman, Lionsgate has flooded us with four more one-sheet designs introducing us to the rest of the film's main cast. Click ahead to see Rachel Nichols' impressive cleavage, and Rose McGowan's even more impressive forehead, and Conan's snarl-n-swing strategy for taking care of anacondas.

OK, so you didn't like the dirt golems of the Conan the Barbarian trailer, and no one particularly cared for watching Conan letting his hair dangle from atop his skull collection; maybe you'd prefer Conan just hacking up some normal dudes in armor, then? So hopes the film's newest poster, which pits the snarling hero against a whole horde of well-equipped extras who would just love to knock all the product out of the barbarian's hair, but he is just not having any of that. Do these guys not realize how long it takes him to look like he's a groupie for Ratt?
Full poster beneath.

When you hire Marcus Nispel, the director of the reboots of Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Friday the 13th, to remake something, you shouldn't be too surprised when the result is a dimly-lit recreation that neither does justice to the original nor particularly offends it. He is the film world's middle-aged lounge band, thanklessly performing uneven, forgettable covers to a bored and inattentive crowd. With that in mind, this Conan remake looks about right.

The Conan the Barbarian teaser trailer: basically a car commercial, if Conan was a car, and if we had the technology to broadcast commercials in the form of holographic smoke.

After sorting out untold skulls from their skeletons in preparation, Conan the Barbarian is triumphantly standing atop them for you in a new "motion poster" from Lionsgate. Go here if you'd like to watch the full-motion version, which includes auto-starting dramatic music, dynamic cloud-cover, and the gentle movement of Conan's hair and sash.
For comparison, here's a shot from the original film:
Looks pretty spot on to me, guys. I'm pretty excited to see how well Momoa can sell swinging into a tree.

Jason Momoa looks as decent as anyone who isn't an Austrian bodybuilder can look as the famous Cimmerian, but mom looks pretty confused, and all this walking is making her hot--which is getting her worried because she's had to tie her sweatshirt around her waist and she didn't put any sunblock on her arms.
More at Latino Review.
From Deadline Hollywood comes news that Jason Momoa--who, of course, as huge Stargate Atlantis fans, we all know as apparently being a guy on Stargate Atlantis--has been cast as Conan the Barbarian in the upcoming remake. The 30-year-old Hawaiian also stars in HBO's upcoming medieval fantasy Game of Thrones, and looks like he'd reek of patchouli.
Deadline goes on to explain that the actor "won over the filmmakers by shooting a few trial scenes that allowed Momoa to wield a sword and behave very Schwarzenegger-like." So, logically, we can only assume Momoa's movements in the Conan remake will be just as favorable for rave remixes. THANK GOD.
