The ultimate demasculation. The plan will teach it's peak with this. It doesn't matter if it's popular elor not. They can show it off and say look what we did to the pioneering male fantasy.
>>
>>223930352
Maybe, but it will make Primal completely redundant
>>
>>223930490
I haven't watched Primal (Maybe I should though) but I do think Genndy can pull it off. Conan is perfect for him. And as much I as I like the 80s Conan movies, they really don't do the novels justice seeing how much they either sideline or get the world of the Hyborian Age wrong. Only thing I'm worried about is that they'll get Conan's character wrong, and either have him be like "Oh no my violence is actually wrong" or they'll just make him an antihero, because god forbid we have a hero who is violent and vengeful. But I'm not sure if Genndy does things like that.

His art style will make it look like a parody

now i'm worried it won't be half as graphic as it ought to be (unless we're talking about Adult Swim).

>>223930352
it'll probably have a good first season, and alright 2nd season and then a shit ending
>>
most of the most famous conan stories were basically "what if lovecraft stories happened in 10,000 BC"

he just discovers some impossibly ancient artifact or alien race and it leaves him wondering how much more of the world he doesn't understand.

the medium really lends itself more to book format. same as how cthulhu stops being imposing when you can see him
>>

If you mean strong independent Women who are just as capable if not more than Conan then yeah this current day nu-version should have plenty of "babes".

>>223930352
3 seasons of primal were a marketing pitch for conan.

No.

No but I'm glad you tasteless retards will adore it.

>>223931596
Only thing I know about Unicorn is that there was a fox woman in it. I have no idea what happens to her.
>>
>>223930854
this, also i just don't think his style is a fit for conan at all. I mean I'd be happy to be surprised but I'm holding low expectations for this
>>
>>223930352
Really hard to say, Genndy isn't completely inept as seen with his recent output but the ending to Samurai Jack was kinda mid, though the leadup to it was great.
If he does it closer to how he did Clone Wars where dialogue was sparse and violence was most of the point we might have something.
>>
>>223930352
Queen of the Black Coast is the one he's doing which is unadaptable by most standards, even older standards, because it is a wildly racist story. It would be impossible even for Genndy for it to make it to screen without alteration.

>>
>>223930352
Hard to say. If it's just Queen of the Black Coast in his style with little to no changes to the source it could be good. If it's an actual show they'll have to expand on stuff unless it's only like four episodes
>>223930430
I love the Arnold movie but it could easily be topped by another adaptation
>>
people will focus on the GENNDAH legend but more important things to consider:

>cartoon made in current year
>means they will use computer animation whether they admit it or not
>loads of women writers will be involved
>it will desperately attempt to create a meme moment for viral advertising
>politics will be shoehorned in
>sex will be nonexistent
>violence will be predictable and tame
>lots of good little asian female characters
>lots of big bad white guy characters

all certain.

Except hotel transylvania's ugly wobbly fucking animation
>>
>>223931888
there's been a lot of comic adaptations, most of the time they just diversify the pitch black crewmen and pay no heed to the racial nature of it all. it feels difficult to adapt because outside of that, it has to lean too hard on belit being a strong kween, which felt dorky even in the source material since REM was writing with a boner in hand

Genndy jewed out with that dog sex movie
Not sure I trust him anymore
>>
>>223932036
Is she a strong kween though? She gets her crew killed because she's too lustful for treasure
>>
>>223931984
In the story Belit treats her black crewmembers as disposable, even irrationally allowing them to die to ancient traps while searching for treasure.
>>223932036
The comics do a lot of narrative gymnastics around the part where the black crew start to succumb to their racial nature and chimp out to attack Conan, its not even verified that its due to the black lotus that they become violent, if anything the lotus should've put them to sleep. The only takeaway is that REH was writing commentary about their nature as black men.
>>
How are the Dark Horse Conan comics? I remember they planned to adapt the Howard stories while filling the spaces in between. Looked interesting, but I never kept up with them.
>>
>>223932168
The early ones are the best, but the later ones start to fall off in quality, mostly in the art.

I liked Primal but hated how Spear and Fang would get stabbed 50x but the art department did zero wounds and it was all inconsequential to the story because they act like it never happened. May as well just bake the main character armor into the story.

Primal S2 is basically Conan, it's good for the most part, but I hope they don't have him as the exclusive creative, dude can't write an ending for shit, he needs some handlers to reign his autism in

>>223930595
Watch it. Spear could conceivably be Conan’s great^42 grandfather. They are that much alike. I’m not just talking looks, either. The motherfucker does not quit.

Meh, it's a style that's far superior to CalArts.
>>
>>223931542
It was successful. I haven’t been this excited for a show in a long-ass time.

As long as someone else writes the ending and not Genndy i'm fine with it
>>
If you watched Primal, you know how this is going to be
Awesome, with a shitty ending
Genndy doesn't know how to pull off a a fucking ending to save his life
Samurai Jack's ending was trash, series come back to cash on it, had to do another take, still not good
Primal's ending was trash
There's no reason to believe he magically learned how to do good fucking endings this time
I will be cool, sure!
You will like it's action and cinematography
And you will be disappointed by the end
it has happened already multiple times, it's like Genndy has a japanese mangaka inside him
>>
>Existed shortly after I saw New Panty and Stocking w/Garterbelt (which, you guessed it, references Conan the Barbarian)
>>
>>223935211
The reason for optimism here is that Genndy doesn't have to write an ending from scratch, he just has to not fuck up Howard's ending too badly.
>>
Aren’t all Conan stories the same? Some hot woman to sex and some evil sorcerer to slay?
>>
>>223936100
>Aren’t all Conan stories the same? Some hot woman to sex and some evil sorcerer to slay?
Ehh not really. Some he is a thief. A mercenary captain leading armies. A king surviving assassin attempts. Defending a frontier colony against demonic chieftan pictish tribes. Spelunking, murder mysteries. The original stories are really quite varied.

>>
>>223936100
Not really, although there is usually a damsel/woman in the stories (particularly the later stories), and Conan fights a lot of evil sorcerors, the real genius of Conan is how diverse the stories actually are.

Conan is a pirate, a theif, a steppe horse tribal chief, a knight, a mercenary, a general, a gladiator, and like a dozen other things, and finally ends up as literal King Conan. Conan stories can be anything from a Western to a pirate story, and anything in between. The Hyborian Age is basically a Western monomyth from before Star Wars or LOTR.

Seems like a weirdly similar project to do after Primal. Wish he varied it up more.

Arnold wasn't a great Conan, but he had the luck of being in the only Conan adaptation that had a director who understood the world Howard wrote of.

I remember how disappointed I was with Conan the Destroyer even as a kid.
>>
>>223930586
Primal is just Conan in Caveman Times, which is much more limited. Conan in Conan Times is Middle Earth Tier in terms of complexity and setting. However, it is impossible to make this actually good in 2027.

But Conan literally is antihero. He does not care about shit but himself and helps others only if it benefits him (usually helps damsels in distress to fuck them later on, but this is Howard being pussy whipped by his mother and love of his life[due to whom not wanting him he commited suicide] cuck fantasy), he is first to kill randoms who get in his way, he is just a mercenary and not any good doer with only redeeming quality being his morality that can be summed up as "do not try fuck me up and I will not fuck you up". Have you ever read original Conan stories? He is a barbarian for a reason.

>>
>>223938036
Have you ever read the Conan stories? Robert E Howard described at least one of Conan's actions as being motivated by not betraying his own white race, so he isn't always self-serving, he also serves his genetic "tribe".
>>
>>223938138
I've read originals recently. Nothing of what you wrote about "white race" is true. He himself never ever talks about his own race because he does not care about shit like that. Connan for Connan is just Connan. And he does not care about his people as there are no people from Cimmeria in these stories but him. For others he is barbarian or from other race. Conan as himself deosn't even talk shit about other races. It is from narration about how picts are devolved or lesser race etc. Go back to /pol/ to be deluded idiot.
>>
>>223930796
Just do beyond the black river
>>
>>223938267
That’s not quite true, it’s not every story but I distinctly recall one where he saves pirates that were going to kill him because he “would never leave white men in the hands of these savages [picts]”
>>
>>223937298
Bro does his powerful arms make you feel safe and secure, enveloping you in his dominating masculinity?
>>
>>223938267
Wrong.
>"I am Conan, a Cimmerian, and I live by the sword’s edge. But I am not such a dog as to leave a white woman in the clutches of a black man; and though your kind call me a robber, I never forced a woman against her consent. Customs differ in various countries, but if a man is strong enough, he can enforce a few of his native customs anywhere. And no man ever called me a weakling!
`If you were old and ugly as the devil’s pet vulture, I’d take you away from Bajujh, simply because of the colour of your hide. But you are young and beautiful, and I have looked at black sluts until I am sick at the guts."

>>223938442
Who knew sir howard conan doyle was such a gooner
>>
>>223938501
Yeah he's pretty strongly motivated by lust too
>>
>>223938442
So his cuckoldry is a proof he cares about white race? Have you read the full story? The whole "white woman in black hands" has nothing to do with him hating blacks for being blacks and loving white woman for being white. It is contextual to the story that he saves damsel in distressz and the ones who grabbed her were black in this story. In other stories white people grab these damesls and he shouts the same things about them and their white culture being shit for trating women badly. He also cooperated with blacks without problems when he was a pirate king.
You clearly never read these stories and are just searching random quotes stripped from context with chatgpt.

>retard pretends to be esl as bait

>>223938442
>>223938583
To add to it, in the same story Conan is literally leader of Black Balumas, who he sees as fierce and good warriors, and the only thing he sees that is lesser in them is their belief in magic and superstition. But this is exactly the same thing he says about white people who believe in magic and superstition, because this is his character.
Howard himself as a person was pussy whipped by his mother and was cucked by the love of his life and his friend. His Conan is depiction of a person he wanted to be and never were. And as raised by single mother pussy he was tolerant leftist and not some kind of poltard white race saviour you try to make him based on two quotes from two stories (one not even published officialy),
Also Howard in his letters with Lovecraft denounced Nazism and Fascism. And he saw people not being better or worse, but being different and he wrote exactly that to Lovecraft about Nazism not being compatible with Anglo-Saxon culture and that black cultures should have their own ways. And this is depicted in his writings about Conan you unneducated illiterate retard.
>>
>>223938671
The only person bringing in nazism and poltardism here is you. But Conan was occasionally motivated by racism and racial/tribal supremacy as shown in the provided quote, that has nothing to do with whatever you think it is, though I'm sure there are poltards who'd use him to champion their beliefs.
>>
>>223938690
As I already said - it is one story in which Conan literally rules over black tribe and when seeing white captive woman decided he needs to go back to his own people as he doesn't fit in with blacks due to racial differences yes, but these differences are not from the perspective of suprematist, as he still shits on white cultures in the same manner as on these black ones. Which has nothing to do with supremacy. Are you ESL yourself? Do you even understand these words you use?
And my talks about Nazism and Fascism in Howards letters is immportant to interpreting these quotes you put out here without context you illiterate faggot, as Howard clearly wants his people to be rulled by his people, but also he does not want to impose his culture over other cultures. Which quite openly makes him non-suprematist.
>>
>>223938753
Half the things you say are your own kneejerk inventions so its hard to tell, in your ESL ramblings, whether you're making honest discussion, baiting, or just schizophrenic.
He does actually make some sideways comments about fellow 'white' races when he comments on the Picts, yes, which are Howard's favorite because Howard considered himself a descendant.
Your accusation of the quote being cherry picked falls flat because the quote is a dialogue where Conan himself states he would save this woman even if she were ugly solely based on her skin color. Its not even the only time he's derided blacks.

Take your meds, or go back to pol, or re-read the books you claim to have read, you're smearing your feces all over the thread.

>Conan himself states he would save this woman even if she were ugly solely based on her skin color.
Yes, Conan is tribal in this manner. Still he is not suprematist and ruled blacks according to their culture and not his own and cooperated with blacks and fucked black women in other stories without any feeling of disgust.
This story is about his yearning to get home from other culture, which you do not understand because you are fucking 4chan retard with polbrain who thinks this one quote without context means Conan is racist white suprematist who would throw away his own life to save white people completely missing the whole point of how Hyborea and Howard's stories worked. The white woman even if ugly is the reminder for Conan he is from somewhere else and he does not belong in black societies. It is segregation. It is not racism which sees to eradicated blacks or impose white cultures on them. Which is also typical cultural depiction of what was happening in the USA when he was writing this shit.
But when reality unfolded with Nazism and Fascism Howard backed off and condemned racism.
This is the same shit that had happened in Poland with antisemites who on the paper wanted to get rid of jews like Jan Mosdorf who ended up helping Jews during WW2 because he couldn't stand retards like brainlessly exterminating people and the ones like you who went with white suprematism.
You are just uneducated retard smearing feces over the whole humanity with how fucking stupid you are.
