Stop the current production.<br /><br />2. Get a Robert E. Howard expert in the same room with the scriptwriters. Have them read the books and instruct them that the Conan stories will serve as the building blocks for the movie, and nothing else.<br /><br />3. Use this film as a chance to reinvent the pop cultural idea of Conan.<br /><br />Look at Casino Royale. Batman Begins. Pirates of the Carribean. All of these films took dead characters, dead franchises, and dead genres and reinvigorated them by not playing it safe. Even fans of Conan the Barbarian don’t want a rehash of that. We are twenty years older now, and we need something more sophisticated. Bryan Singer learned that the hard way with Superman Returns. This can NOT be a nostalgia project.<br /><br />Go to . and sign up! The new Conan movie:

But they blew that opportunity. Now Conan will be reduced to a B-film, worse than anything that Milius and even Fleischer. Why waste the time, money and possible talent?
