Bookmark: Digg Bookmark del.icio.us Bookmark Technorati Bookmark Furl Bookmark
Source:  Bloody Disgusting
Bloody Disgusting have confirmed 100% that Rob Zombie has been meeting with Lionsgate and Nu Image about directing the long gestating Conan remake.

Nothing has been signed at this moment, but an announcement is forth coming. The film would revive the original 1982 franchise that starred Arnold Schwarzenegger and was directed by John Milius. While news is light on this front at the moment, we will follow-up with any immediate announcements.

Conan has a proposed 2009 release date. Now that the writers' strike has come to an end, this should come together pretty quickly.

K-Man's comments was too long. The only part I bothered reading was the part about me. And yes, I am a creative genius. I'm the one who got joe johnston to direct the wolf-man and channing tatum to be Duke even though nobody liked that idea. heh, heh, heh

BUT!!! you deff don't know better than the money making movie industry, which as we all know is where the buck stops! and with the money coming in for a guy that, and i quote, "His overall style is more amateur then any film school student I have ever seen." well then that says we're all right and your a dick who thinks he knows better than the whole of the movie fan world who have paid to see his "amature style" movies!! so jokes on you :P
