... the Cimmerian, not the talk-show host. I'm pretty excited about seeing this upcoming film (2011), starring Jason Momoa as the fantasy world's most famous barbarian. Nothing against Arnold, who I believe was the right choice for the role during the era in which he played the part, but I believe Momoa is much closer to the vision of the creator, Robert E. Howard(who described his character as "pantherish," and as being 6-feet, 2-inches tall, and weighing about 210 pounds). At any rate, it's always nice to have another long-haired hero up on the big screen!
Funny side-note: when this picture was on the computer monitor tonight, my 5-year-old daughter said in her sweet little voice, "You should be that for Halloween, Daddy!" Heheh... I guess love really IS blind :)
