New Conan the barbarian, and Terminator movie coming out

Arnold is back at it again, he has another Conan movie (The Legand of conan) and Terminator film (Terminator: Genisis) planned in the coming years. You'll only have to look as far as IMDb to find said news, if you didn't know it already. This Conan film will be the first without Mako who died while voicing splinter in "TMNT" and was also known as Aku on Samurai jack. What you think? excited?

I am looking forward to Legend of Conan/King Conan more than any other film. Terminator Genesis, not so much... I'd rather see Arnold in a Predator 4, if anything.

Wouldn't it be the second movie without Mako, but the First Arnold Conan without Mako?

Personally, I'd rather see more of Jason Momoa as Conan, although I wouldn't mind having Arnold as old Conan narrating while Jason plays young Conan.

Doing so would mean marrying the origin/continuity of the Arnold Conan movies into the Momoa Conan movie... which is impossible.

I was thinking more using Arnold as old Conan as a homage rather then merging the different movie canons. The Arnold movies are great, but personally I think Momoa is the better Conan of the two, better in both looks and character. It's just a shame the 2011 movie wasn't as strong as I hoped it would be.

Yeah, Momoa as Conan: awesome. The Momoa Conan movie: dogsh*t. I have no interest in seeing any sequels to it.

Arnold is the one true Conan

the other movie was terrible, I'm excited to see what he does with it, the last terminator movie was terrible too. Arnold needs to be in these things, it'll be very interesting to see where he goes with it

Calling Arnold the"true Conan" seems like a slap in the face for Howard, as the Conan in the Arnold movies are not very similar to the original Conan.
