Conan Sales Art

Conan Sales Art

Its not quite an official poster...just something that was knocked together to promote the movie to overseas buyers.

The poster was shown to Splendid films, who have acquired director Markus Nispel's Conan movie for German-speaking territories and the Benelux countries. The film will be distributed in North America by Lionsgate.



I think its hilarious that Nispel's previous howlers(well, at least Chainsaw has Biel ass) are being used at the top of the poster to attempt to sell this movie. It may as well say..

"Hey, this dude's movies stink to high heaven, but they make shit loads of cash!...why of course you can use my pen..."

The only person I can see playing Conan is James Preston Rogers. He is even suppose to be casted for Lobo.

@JerzeyHellboy

yes buddy James Preston Rogers would been the best choice for Thor but I also think he can do much better with Conan and Lobo too.

JPR looks like a giant with dwarfism..no offence to the dude, but his head is malformed. Plus, can he even act? He has big muscles and long hair..not all the requirements folks.

Adrian Brody for Conan!

always dump the garbage in ur head and do not start talking crap about me

Sirprize- I sure as hell won't! As if i'd take it down because "someone's" offended. She should take down her comment because she's offensive to logic and common sense!!!

shahrazstate- If you would suggest someone else than the hack you try constantly to force feed us(because MTV sucks his dick regularly, judging from your comments), then MAYBE we wouldn't be too hard on you. When i said "get some credibility", i meant it. It's a tip. No you can't buy some, it's earned by making sensible choices. Wanting the same actor for three roles ONLY because you like his muscles is NOT sensible. Each of those three characters have VERY different personalities and manurisms. NOTHING that JPR has done makes him qualified for EITHER of those roles regardless of how much muscle mass he can gather. Again, get some credibility. Oh and your Rose McGowan avatar really doesn't help your cause...

Did they go to generic posters emporium for this? It looks as if they did a Google image search and put words on it.

@ROR: I agree with you about his previous movies and am not looking forward to this. Plus, I'm fine with the old movie. It's cheaper anyway.
Shaman
Shaman - 12/2/2009, 2:00 PM
I love how Sirprize seems to be having the time of his life on this LOL :P

Ror- She or he... has a Rose McGowan avatar... and is casting JPR for every muscle bound hero... i'm pretty sure his or hers "spoting abilities" are out of order.

I was following Thor 4 a long time and I see J.P.R.'s name come along I didnt know of him so I went to his IMDB page and noticed he has been on 15 different film sets since 2007. Now I pick some other actors I knew of and checked to see how many sets they have been on since 2007. They averaged about half of J.P.R.

http://www.imdb.com/name/nm2286416/

Plus it seems as tho he has worked with some of the top stars, so hes gota be learning somthing. Plus it looks like the only stunts hes ever done are 4 himself, all the other actors get doubled. This adds production value 2 the Film. Plus it says he signed a WWE contract, and left them and the $$$ to follow his dream. That shows integrity and thats what all these characters need to come off as real on the big screen. Plus check out the 12 News Desk letters on his IMDB page, Im not the only one who thinks so. Since he's still a relatively unknown, I just feel its a matter of time.

Sirprize@ I spotted my rug...but I'm cleaning it up with
rug cleaner! Damm you guys made me spot my rug!

Shahrazstate@ what pharmaceuticals are you on? JPR is
a background muscle actor on all those movies! He's
usually the one who gets killed first! There is a
reason no movie-maker has used him in a major roll
after all those movies. He's just background beef! That
will be his whole career in acting, I'm sorry to say!
"BACKGROUND BEEF" is what it probably says in the
script for all the parts he's played! LOL

You guys are extra funny on here today! LMAO
DDD
DDD - 12/2/2009, 6:21 PM
BTW, Paul Telfer for Conan! 6'2" a classical actor and
ripped to the rafters! Starred as the classical Hercules
with Leelee Sobieski on TV, on NBC!









shahrazstate
shahrazstate - 12/2/2009, 11:16 PM


Let me 1st start off by saying thanks DDD 4 showing us only the topless Paul Telfer pic's from your collection.. He is a good choice, but Hercules was in 2005 and I hardly remember it. So if he was sooo good wouldn't we of seen him in somthing else by now? If you think that half melted butter performance entitles him 2 a shot at a Feature Film CONAN no less, well you do the math. He hasn't worked with any stars, only been on 5 sets from 2007. Im sure he'd revoke yr P.T. Fan Club President status if he knew you put his name forward 4 this.

I dooo like the "BACKGROUND BEEF" that was funny, but again showing yr ignorance. IMDB do not give out credits 4 background. I like a good movie just as much as the next. It takes the average Actor 6 plus yrs to "get their break". J.P.R. like him or not he has been on a lot of sets in 3yrs so he's doing somthing right PLUS paying his dues. Sure he still may need another 3yrs, but i'm telling you (and you heard it here) when J.P.R. gets his "shot" (as they all do) I wont have to be beside ya to say "I told ya so"
Shaman
Shaman - 12/3/2009, 6:22 AM
DDD- YES, Telfer is definitely a TRUE contender for the role. Why? CAUSE HE'S BEEN IN A STARRING ROLE THAT ACTUALLY ISN'T TOO FAR OFF FROM CONAN. He's prooved himself enough to warrant a shot and definitely has the build and face for the part. Unlike a certain talentless body builder that seems to be campaining for every role involving muscles, this side of the galaxy.

shahrazstate- 1st off, if you follow IMDB and MTV like it was the bible, then you should not be accusing anyone of ignorance but yourself. They are the absolute worse resources to read when searching for actual facts. 2nd, i could name you actors that you've never heard of in your life that have a longer resume then most Hollywood stars. Why? Cause that's what talentless hacks do to get by. They work their asses off all year round with small, low paying, insignificant roles only so they can be able to pay their bills. There are even actors that actually HAVE been in MANY starring roles but won't ever be able to make anything BUT C-movies. That's just how it is. Now IF he had but a mere shread of actual talent, JPR would have gotten his shot already since as you say "he's worked with top stars on 15 different sets since 2007". Fact is, he's being pushed to the side for not having what it takes and any role he's been in confirms it. All he'll ever be is a background bull, nothing else. 3rd, when i said "get some credibility", i did specify for you to make sensible choices. Not explain why you feel a talentless hack should get starring roles. We KNOW who he is and we KNOW that he sucks. And so do movie studios apparently, jugging from his resume. All the sets he's been on are retarded c-movies and he can't even get a starring role in them to begin with. The only decent one was Outlander and all he had was a forgetful role. His whole resume is junk no matter what MTV or IMDB says about him. Let him snag a respectable starring role and then we'll talk.

Shaman. You could of saved yourself carpale tunnel syndrome because the last 11 words you typed was what I have been saying. Who books staring roles right out the box? Lets take the yard stick to which all others are compared, the gorgeous Brad Pitt. 18 movie he did till he got Thelma & Louise, his "breakout role". Then another 10 movies until we noticed him in Interview with a Vampire. (Because yr working with yr brain,) thats 28 movies Brad Pitt had to do until anyone noticed him...
I'm saying all Actors get "their break" . 28 movies until we notice BRAD PITT. So you think J.P.R. has gotten his shot yet??
Who turns yr computer on for ya?? I don't love the guy, I'm a pragmatist who loves saying I told ya so. Like yr parents have been saying 2 each about you moving out, and your thoughts of when will you get a date? Just give it time.. .

I'm saying all Actors get "their break". 28 Movies until we noticed BRAD PITT. His 1st 3yrs in the business (where J.P.R. is @ with 15) he had 13 non-descript films. WoW, how come we didn't know about him then? So do you think J.P.R. has REALLY gotten his shot yet?
Shaman
Shaman - 12/3/2009, 2:12 PM
shahrazstate- There are way many more actors that never have had their shot as you put it than there are that did. IMDB is full of them. How many people do you think actually go through theater majors to become actors? Now think how many per state? Per country? WORLD WIDE??? Now how many actors do we see REGULARLY on the big screen??? Still think EVERY actor gets a shot??? No they really really don't. You need to have great talent and be at the right place at the right time meeting the right people and then maybe you get lucky. Muscles is nothing the gym or CGI can't fix nowadays. So other than that, JPR has got nothing left. For any "major" comic book character you can think of, there are PLENTY of better actors for it than JPR. So you should save yourself some "carpale tunnel syndrome".
