Nu Image/Millenium has found their director for the “Conan” remake. I say, this is a much much better choice than Brett Ratner!

Marcus Nispel has been signed to direct the “Conan” reboot. To those who don’t know who Marcus Nispel is, he did both “Texas Chainsaw” and “Friday the 13th” remakes.

The first “Conan” movie is not really a horror movie, but there are some pretty creepy things in the film that Marcus could make a fantasy adventure film more horror like. I’m sure Marcus will stay true to the “Conan” series, and I’m so glad Brett Ratner is not on. Whew! Decent choice!!!

Who should take over the role of “Conan” the leading character, to replace Arnold?

My vote is Triple H (Paul Levesque) of the WWE. On a Wrestlemania event a few years back, Triple H, came down the ramp with a Conan the Barbarian costume on, and I’m like, “He’s the next Conan for the movie!!!”

And who should play Conan’s main villain, Thulsa Doom, that was originally played by James Earl Jones?

My vote on that one would be either Michael Clarke Duncan or Terry Crews.
