    The first official trailer for Conan the Barbarian has hit, showing off lots of swordplay and sorcery. It has a bit of an 80s feel to it, which feels right. There’s potential for it being a fun film.

    Conan the Barbarian stars Jason Momoa, Ron Perlman, Stephen Lang, Rose McGowan and Rachel Nichols.

    The movie comes out August 19, 2011.

    Warner Bros. released another trailer for Green Lantern starring Ryan Reynolds. In it, we get a better feel of the threat and more of an understanding of some of the characters. It includes a glimpse into Hal Jordan’s training as a Green Lantern.

    I’m still hesitant on Reynolds playing Hal Jordan, but there’s room for character development into a more serious Jordan. Regardless, the film looks like a blast.

    Green Lantern opens in theaters June 17, 2011.
