Conan! What is best in life?

To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of their women.
Woohoohoohoo! Two personal records! For breath holding and number of sharks shot in the face.

I'm still waiting for a U.S. release of the Solomon Kane movie, even though I heard it sucked.

There is no replacing Arnold.
I've been wallowing in my own chaotic and insecure delusions.

Is there no single unique idea left in Hollywood?

Exactly.

I just finished watching Conan the Barbarian, Conan the Destroyer and Red Sonja recently.

This makes me sad.

But I'll probably still net flix it.

I'm actually surprised it took them this long. After the success of Lord of the Rings I expected a lot of the classic fantasy stories to be made into movies. Elric, Fafrhd and the Grey Mouser, Conan, Kull, or any number of D&D properties should probably have shown up on some script writers list, but nothing ever materialized.

I just put Krull on my netflix list.

I haven't seen that since i was a kid

...and Red Sonja recently.


No single movie has ever made fall asleep faster than Red Sonja.
When all the land lays in ruin... And burnination has forsaken the countryside... Only one guy will remain... My money's on...

I was thinking Excalibur would be remade by now.

I loved that movie when I was a kid.  :D
I like a drink. You know when people say 'I like a drink as much as the next man'? Not if I'm the next man, you don't.

The Clash of the Titans reboot was a pill o' turd.

Haven't seen that yet but it's on my list.

One remake I did like, as well as the original very much, was The Day the Earth Stood Still
