Conan lived to take on his own kingdom, by force of his own personal courage and strength.  This is part of the legend, as written by Howard, and therefore commands the presence of the original Conan (that would be Arnold) in order to maintain continuity.  Arnold may be 54(?), but we should all pray to Crom that we would look that fit at any age.  Any other imposter posing in his place would be ludicrous by comparison.  Arnold IS Conan (the character), and he is personally of an age to complete the cycle of his tale in a credible  fashion.  Conceptualize all you want, but don't ignore the drawing power of the man who is the legend to those of us who give a rip--and will spend ludicrous amounts of money to see him in the movie.
