Sep 18 2008Someone Letting Brett Ratner Direct 'Conan'?
Brett Ratner, who's been busy keeping himself relevant with non-stop talk of a Guitar Hero movie, has reportedly been offered a Conan movie. From Dread Central:
We got word today that Nu Image is offering the long-awaited new Conan movie to, of all people, Brett Ratner. Over the years there have been so directors circling this project, everyone from Robert Rodriguez to Rob Zombie, the fact that Brett Ratner might actually attach himself to this and make it a reality is almost enough to make one wish they’d just stop trying to bring Robert E. Howard’s creation back to the big screen.
Hey, Bret Ratner, are you thinking what I'm thinking? That Conan gets mystically teleported to modern day New York City, where he competes in a Guitar Hero tournament, and the tagline is "He's a real barbarian on the axe"? I worry you are.

Please no for the love of Crom. If this comes any further then a rumor I may have to visit Hollywood and cleave heads with a broad sword.

If this happens, one can only assume that the evil wizard Thoth Amon is somehow behind it... and yes, my geek is showing.

By the way, nipple! Is this poster fake or legit? One year seems a short amount of time to kickstart a franchise.
