    "Fans expect (these films) to be more true to the source material. There's no reason there couldn't be a Conan movie every two years. He's almost like Batman: He's a dark hero. He's a hard hero. He has to be badass, but we also have to like him." — Fredrik Malmberg, producerComic Book Movie: Conan (August 13, 2008)
