no really.

He may not be white, but Momoa looks like Conan. I'd much rather have a POC actor who actually looks like the character than some white guy who doesn't look like Conan at all.

Momoa looks like Conan,

minor details!

I agree let his hair grow to about shoulder length, and if as they say he has put on some muscle he will be a perfect match for the characer in the books.

Current objection: A ten pound sword!?!?!?!?!?!WTF!! No one, no one uses a ten pound sword evah!! grrrrr I hate that crap.

the manflesh picspams will be epic.

artistic of course. but also, epic.

At least swinging a ten pound sword around will address the supposed lack of bulk problem.

In this post-racial era the fan(boy)s need to judge a person by the content of their character & skill, not their skin. And besides, they chose the best actor for the job.

*tries sooooo hard to say that aloud with a straight face but is failing*
