Why a 3rd Conan movie with Arnold would work…

This is a great time to make a new Conan the Barbarian movie, with Arnold back as the character. Why? Because around the time, “Conan the Barbarian”, and “Conan, the Destroyer” were made in the 80’s, they didn’t really have the greatest technology back then. Imagine what Hollywood could do with a Conan movie with Arnold, with today’s technology, they have now? Yes, I’m sure “The Legend of Conan”, the third movie, will be a big action movie. I’m also sure it will be a huge special effects movie with quite a bit of CGI.

Some people may think that Arnold as Conan again because of his age wouldn’t work, but I’m sure the writers would find a way to make it work. Hence, the title, “The Legend of Conan”. Sounds like they’re going for the direction of an aging hero looking back at his past. Maybe they’ll make him King or something? Would make more sense. Even Arnold would be too old to be half naked swinging a sword around, I’m sure Arnold himself would agree with that. I’m sure the film crew will find Conan, some appropriate clothing that will cover up his upper body. Clothing that will fit the, Hyborian Age (the fictional period that Conan is set in).

A third Conan movie was supposed to happen a long time ago but it couldn’t because of Arnold being Governor back in the day. That’s why they had to do the Conan reboot with Jason Momoa. It might be hard to make a successful Conan movie with Arnold in today’s Hollywood of movies, though, so I wish them luck. The script needs to be really good and perfect, if they want people to take it seriously. I’m sure they will get Arnold into sword fighting action in the upcoming Conan flick, of course. Arnold knows the Conan character better than anybody, so I’m sure, he can still play the role well with no problem.

It’s going to be interesting to see how they are going to make this film. Now lets see if Arnold will be game to playing the Terminator, for one last time! I’m sure he will.

Report: Arnold set to play Conan again? Seems like it’s for real…

Now that Arnold is done with the governor thing for good, he has been keeping himself busy with movie roles again. Look like Arnold is game for playing, Conan, for one more time. Universal Studios, is moving forward with, “The Legend of Conan”, and Arnold has been confirmed to reprise his role as Conan, in which that is one of his characters that he is most famous for, other than, the Terminator. Read the full story here, at Deadline, who first reported the story.

I’m down for Arnold playing, Conan, again. As a matter of fact, the original movies were supposed to continue has a big franchise, but they stopped for a while since the second movie, “Conan, The Destroyer”, didn’t do well.

I know people are going to laugh at Arnold, accusing him of being too old for the role, blah blah blah, but Sylvester Stallone played Rocky and Rambo for one last time. Sly is still doing action movies with, The Expendables. If he can do it, so can Arnie. Arnie seems to be doing action movies well still, with the Expendables and “The Last Stand”. I’m sure Arnold has plenty of other action movies on the way, so why not?

Arnold may not be in the best of shape to be half naked, swinging a sword around, but I’m sure Arnie can get himself in top shape again before the movie. He may not be able to get back in top shape again like he was back in the 80’s, but I’m sure he’ll find a way to look buff enough in time for the Conan role. Arnold’s the fitness expert, he has plenty of time to get all jacked up in time before filming begins. They still have a long while to go to start filming. I’m all for another Conan movie with Arnold, ’cause the reboot film with Jason Momoa, kinda sucked. The original Conan deserves to be a trilogy.
