Conan Remake is Sounding Less Crappy
Well this is certainly very good news. No, not that two new writers have been set upon the script for the upcoming “Conan” remake, but that the budget appears to be very high ($100 million), and they’re shooting for a hard-edged R-rating on this one. No little sissy PG-13 bullshit here, kiddos. The new writers [...]

He’s got “Doomsday” coming out, but what British director Neil Marshall really wants to do is direct the upcoming “Conan” remake.

The guys over at Coming Soon have landed some really good scoops yesterday — namely three teaser posters for three upcoming movies.
