Yeah, the acting isn't stellar, but I love the entire package. It's very epic. That last battle of the two of them--plus Mako--against Thulsa Doom's army is just terrific.
If you want me to leave, you can put your hands on my hot, tight little body and make me.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I liked the part where they were fighting off evil spirits trying to take Conan to the land of the dead. Or whatever. The spirits looked way better and cooler than I expected.
Still good cheesy fun.
Yeah, I think it'd be more enjoyable with company. I had this whole running commentary in my head during the first twenty minutes that went something like this:
So Sam Weechester is hanging out with his dad and his mom, Angelina Jolie, when they're attacked and his dad is killed by EVIL DOGS. And then Darth Vader kills his mom. So they take him away and he pushes a giant donkey wheel, which transports him to Tunisia and transforms him into the Terminator, but with longer hair. Then he groans in pain for ten whole minutes.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Captain America costume. Apparently for reals. I like it.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Hey ita - I'll bet you're with me and are excited about Antman, yes??

Oh, it had BETTER happen. I'm not holding my breath, but I wants it, I do.

Is Edgar Wright still attached?
Oh, Aims, you shouldn't watch Conan the Barbarian. Conan punches a camel in the face. Seriously.

Joe is very firmly in the camp of NO ANTMAN. I want it bad.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
He punches another one in The Destroyer, too. Conan is apparently anti-camel.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Well, aren't all right minded people? (Looking at YOU, Aims...)
Camels are stanky spittin' things. I side with Conan.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I just saw Alice in Wonderland. They kept calling the Jabberwock "Jabberwocky". Very irritating.
