EVERY NOW and THEN, THE BOZOS WHO CONTROL the PURSE STRINGS in HOLLYWOOD GET the NOT-TOO-BRIGHT NOTION to REMAKE SOMETHING ON a MONSTER BUDGET WHEN the ONLY APPEAL of the ORIGINAL WAS ITS ENDEARING CHEEZINESS. THE 2011 REMAKE of http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum-discussion-addl-info-on-conan-2011_forum554.html%20 - IS a PERFECT EXAMPLE.
FOR the http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0082198/ - , http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=Schwarzeneggar&btnG=Search+Razzies.com&domains=razzies.com&sitesearch=razzies.com - GOT the FIRST of HIS MANY, MANY (MANY!) RAZZIE® NOMINATIONS, PLAYING WHAT WE JOKINGLY CALLED "CONAN the BAVARIAN." WE FONDLY RECALL ONE CRITIC REFERRING to AH-NULD's PERFORMANCE as "A DIM BULB, EVEN in the DARK AGES."
BUT, MUCH LIKE LAST YEAR's ILL-ADVISED, http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0800320/awards - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0800320/awards - ® http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0800320/awards - ( http://www.boxofficemojo.com/movies/?id=clashofthetitans10.htm - ) 3-D http://www.razzies.com/forum/clash-of-the-titans-in-fake-3d_forum425.html - REMAKE, the "NEW, IMPROVED" CONAN HAS A HERCULEAN BUDGET, PROLONGED 3-D BATTLE SEQUENCES and ENOUGH BLOOD SPLATTERED ACROSS the SCREEN to SATISFY the MOST ARDENT SAW FAN.
WHAT IT DOESN'T HAVE IS ANY REASON to HAVE BEEN MADE. WELL, EXCEPT for the REASON JUST ABOUT EVERYTHING GETS MADE by HOLLYWOOD THESE DAZE -- ITz MAKERS HOPED to MINT MONEY.
FOR the SAKE of ORIGINAL THOUGHT in HOLLYWOOD, WE'RE DELIGHTED THIS ONE BOMBED. BUT THEN, AS WE WROTE THIS, THAT HIDEOUS http://www.razzies.com/forum/ye-olde-head-razzberrys-rant_topic5223.html - WAS ABOUT to CROSS $250 MILLION in WORLDWIDE GROSSES ( http://www.boxofficemojo.com/movies/?id=smurfs.htm - ) -- SOMETIMES the "GOOD FIGHT" BARELY SEEMS WORTH FIGHTING...
TO TAKE YER OWN BLUDGEON to the SKULL of THIS NUMB-SKULLED REMAKE, http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum-mermbers-discussion-of-cOnan-2011_topic5296.html - and JOIN OUR FORUM DISCUSSION...
SOON-to-BE-FORGOTTEN CONAN-PLAYING GUY: "I have to kill him -- He said my boobs were bigger than my box office numbers!!"
