You mean you didn't like Grace Jones?  Well the word is that John Milius (director of the first movie) has been hard at work tweaking his King Conan script, apparently Ah-nold is attached to it, so let's hope it all pans out.FD:"Did anyone make a mention about what he did or not do for "modern cinema"  No, people made mention if they thought he would make a good or bad d&d movie.?"You're not a Ridley Scott fan and I disagreed with your comments.  Your dialogue was as off topic as you purport mine to be.  If you're going to say things like "Bladerunner is overated...yadda, yadda" then perhaps expect that someone is bound to disagree."Get the fanboy chip off your shoulder."I grew up to his films, they helped shape my career, I've had the pleasure of seeing him work so yes, I'm an unabashed fanboy.  Perhaps you should accept that your general comments are not gospel and get the holier than thou chip off of your shoulder? <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f644.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":rolleyes:" title="Roll eyes    :rolleyes:"  data-smilie="11"data-shortname=":rolleyes:" /> I can't make you like his work, you can't make me not like his...but rather than personal attacks try debating.Barsoomcore:You can definitely applaud the fight Solomon put up to get the D&D movie on the screen, but it's his directorial skill that's in question.  If he doesn't have the skill to create a movie that will earn a profit (yes, cynical I know), he won't get the backing to make a movie. Your average viewer doesn't care how long it takes someone to get a movie made, the trials and tribulations they've undergone - they just want solid entertainment for their money.And I agree about your comment about PJ - LoTR sort of supercedes D&D from a literary aspect so "stepping down" to do a D&D movie would probably not happen.  I just hope he doesn't hide out for 10 years figuring out how to one-up the LoTR trilogy.</blockquote>
