I am vaguely encouraged by the fact that it's Jason Momoa playing Conan; I liked him in SG: Atlantis *shrug* But it really does nothing to capture him as the cunning thief and tactician...muscles alone could never explain how he did so well.
And as for Solomon Kane; yeah, it screwed the faithful adaptation, but the opening scene was taken straight out of my head from a game I'm in, so I found myself thinking of it as a really bizarre Alt-History for my mage.
We are doomed, I think, to be dissatisfied until the tech appears to convert wishful thinking into movies in your own home.
