They should make a new one where, many years after his original adventures, Conan becomes governor of a province in a far-off land.

The first Conan is a lot better, but you could do far worse than watch the new one.

The OP searched for Conan the Barbarian movie and guess what, the link she got was to the new awful remake of the original masterpiece.  | | | |
