The film made only around $10 million ($90 million budget) the first week. Conan is a popular name, and should have been marketed better. I think the biggest mistake of the film was hiring the lead actor, Jason Mamoa. He’s the main reason I lost interest in the film. He played Drogo in HBO’s Game of Thrones, and he had no presence. Maybe he needs better direction, or more experience. I wish him all the best. But, at this point in time, he is a hard sell.

I’m so glad I missed this one. I almost wanted to see it along with the remake of Fright Night. So we should skip the DVD, skip it when it’s on cable, and just wait for the TV version
on SyFy. That should take a couple of years or so. 🙂
