I'm saying nobody. Probably nothing. Conan the Cimmerian could whup anybody.
Legolas would just shoot him through the eye from a thousand yards back...Have you read the Fellowship? Sure, they cut out the awesome scene where he shoots a bunch of Worgs through the eye on every shot, since that would be boring in the movie (As opposed to having to watch Hobbits drives carts for the first 10 minutes...Ugh).

Or Legolas would fall madly in love. I mean he did follow the dwarf around for the rest of his days. Just saying.

Now, now. It's Tolkien. He was a good Catholic boy, and that there kinda stuff didn't happen in Middle Earth—no matter how much the slashers wish it did.

I had a player once in a Middle Earth game that went out of her way to convince us all that Legolas' indulgences are what got him kicked out of the forest kingdom and on the quest to begin with.

Twits like that are to be ignored ... or, if feasible, ridiculed into tearful silence.

She was way too hot to ignore.

Pug/Milamber of Midkemia.
This is a guy who early in his career turned a time based trapped set by an evil god inside out. Conan would be an after thought.
Pug's also destroyed whole worlds. If he really wanted Conan dead, he would be.
Raymond E. Fiest, the athor, wrote him so powerful he's having a hard time trying to keep him down.

Or the chestbursting, double-jawed aliens from the movie franchise. (Granted, there would have to be, like, ten thousand of the lil dudes)
Wolverine kilt the Hulk in a What if comic.
So Conan could too. Wolverine is just a scientific experiment to try and almost approximate Conan's badness, so Conan could do it.
Them aliens...Conan would probably have to get an outer space machinegun of the future, but he could whup them. He whupped that gorillaman with the red cloak on with his bare hands.
Wolvy and Conan faced off in a what if once as well, It was more or less a draw with between them with a slight edge to wolverine.
Gene-spliced Conan T Kirk takes the day though, I'm sure.

Conan is like Batman, Conan can beat anyone...even Superman, who he would see as a strange god, and he'd go find some Kryptonite, sneaky like, and have someone make him a sword out of it. Dead Kryptonian. Conan wouldn't go straight for Superman.
Conan vs. Batman! There would be a fight. Conan would win, of course, his physical skills trump Batman's. If Batman was stupid enough to go straight for him, which he probably would, Batman's ego vs. normal humans is extraodinary. Batman plans to beat non-humans, but vs a "normal" human he goes for the kung-fu... Conan beats kung-fu.

The Batman Fiasco (redo):
Batman walks into Conan’s dimly lit room. Near the roaring fire, empty bottles lay about along with sleeping barmaids sans clothing.
Batman sneers and screams, “Look at me Conan I am a neurotic basket case, because I watched my parents get murdered. Don’t mess with me because I’ll kill you! You hear me Conan, I’m so crazy I’ll kill you!”
Batman flaps his cape around a bit because he thinks it looks dramatic. “Look at my cool black cape, and all my cool toys. I am the Batman.”
Conan rolls off of Trillia the wench, “Woman I have to make water. Get rid of that annoying insect over there.” Conan points at Bat Munch (I mean Man?) and silently moves out of the room.
Trillia draws a lady’s dagger and points it at Batman. The corner of Batman’s mouth quivers as his throat fills with rage. He starts to speak, “Woman…”
Quick as a willow-wisp Trillia’s executes a not-so-bad lunge and stabs Batman through the eye socket, piercing his brain. His dead body falls backward out an open window into a waiting alley below.
She smiles, “Hehee. Conan will be so pleased with me.” Trillia lies back down in bed giving her hair a little flick so as to please Conan’s eye when he returns.

Tha is where you are wrong unbeliever Xabulba. For Conan is alive and well in all of his fans hearts and minds. So he is immortal and will whup up on any who decide to get in the way of his booty gathering; after all he was a pirate and a barbarian. Thus no ninja dancer, or ronin or elf bow wielding fool is going to be able to hold a candle to the greatest warrior there is or ever will be. He knows what is best in life.
"He has crushed his enemies seen them driven before him and listened to the lamentation of their woman."
After which listened to their cries of joy as he showed them all a good time. As he eat drank and was merry.

But is the new Conan movie any good, and does it live up to Conan? Is it Robert E. Howard Conan or something along the lines of Robert Jordan Conan? And if I spend my time talking about how Arnold Schwarzenegger makes the best Conan, should I even bother with the new movie?
The new movie bombed big time, it was a bigger bomb than the one dropped on Hiroshima. At least this time the only casualty is Jason Momoa's career. 90 million to make and only 15 million at the box office.

I saw the new Conan movie. I really liked Momoa as Khal-Drogo in Game of Thrones and saw him as a good Conan... only the way that movie was written it left me feeling like the movie was doen to create the 3D stuff. 20 minutes about the temple falling and people running around? Boring I wanted more sword fighting.
Gruumash . |
Ah well I would say the third conan followed by the 1st then close 2nd would be the third incarnation. Jason Momoa's performance was okay, I did not like the writing too much in the film so it jaded me some. In particular there was the scene where he goes out of his way to save the slaves from the slavers; I never saw Conan doing something like that he was more of a wanting a fair fight; I could ahve seen him getting involved if there was a scene where a slave was fighting back to save themselves and he trips or gets in the way of the other slavers which in turn gets him into a fight with them but that is me. Anways I liked him more as Khal Drogo.
The last one shown I will not dignify with an answer. Though i do like his humor.
