More on Jason Momoa and Conan the Barbarian

[wraithfodder]

While I think Jared Padalecki on Supernatural is sorta cute, I just cannot see him as Conan the Barbarian. I'm trying to envision him, versus Jason Momoa, swinging a sword. Hmm, nah. Watching Jason in action on Stargate Atlantis with the sword - he's tailor made for the role - although the studios may go with Jared to draw in the Supernatural crowd, but Jared's gonna have to beef up quite a bit if he gets the role.

Anyway, here's the article on Jared

Padalecki is a cute baby. I don't think - even in his most badass-demon-hunter moment - that he can pull off the brooding menace that is needed for a proper Conan. Momoa can do it off without having to practice.

Plus he'd look bitchin' in a breech-clout and sandals. ;-)

Oh yes, I like the costuming idea ;)
