Terminator ripped off Harlan Ellison. And that crazy lady from Philly who also wrote the Matrix.

They never really adapted Conan. They did one decent movie, one shit one, and Red Sonja. And Red Sonja was originally written as a woman with guns (in addition to the other guns). They never got around to making another good Conan movie. But to say "oh poo, don't do it now" is like saying "don't give me that ice cream I liked again, because it's not the same ice cream I already ate." Yeah it will PROBABLY suck, but that's no reason not to try. It's a reason not to try a third time.

I'm sure fans want to see the books adapted faithfully. And possibly not starring an Austrian.

What would be the worst-case scenario cast, anyway?  Lou Ferrigno as Conan?

Matthew MaConaughey as Conan?

Tripe

As long as they call it Conan the Zombarian.

It pretty much needs to be Beowulf-style. They'll figure this out after the first movie, but they won't be able to afford it.
