kimik Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Awesome! If they can bring a GoT production quality to it then this should be an awesome show. Who will they cast as Conan - Jason Mamoa? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the blob Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Who will play Conan? If he is hot enough my wife might be amenable to us watching the show, which means I might be able to watch the show. But there needs to be a plot. She watches GOT because there is a plot.

the blob Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 The last Conan TV show was terrible though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the blob Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 One problem with Conan is that there aren't that many characters. Maybe in the last half of the comic run there were some more supporting characters, but in the first 100 or so issues you have Red Sonja and Belit. Conan beheading some monster every episode may get boring if he has nobody to share his adventures with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miguel Sapochnik GoT directed episodes: - The Winds of Winter - Battle of the Bastards - Hardhome - The Gift My faith in this new production just went through the roof! Some of the best episodes every across the GoT seasons. Skunkboy, Key Largo Comics and ComicConnoisseur 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd heard the kid from the last Conan movie and Disney's "Kicking It" was pushing for a tv show with Conan as an 18-19 year old. Is this it ,perchance?

Bosco685 Posted February 6, 2018 Author Share Posted February 6, 2018 I would love to see Conan in some massive battle scene, where he is a young warrior learning about his craft. ComicConnoisseur 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
