Rob Zombie Not Directing 'Conan The Barbarian' Remake Despite Lunch Meetings With Salads, Gladhanding & Diet Cokes

Bloody Disgusting.com is quickly becoming our favorite comedy horror site. The fansite dedicated to all things horrific, terrifying and bloody enthusiastically reported last week that they had “confirmed 100%” that Rob Zombie has been taking meetings with Lionsgate to direct a remake of “Conan the Barbarian.” Ok, amazing right?

We can also confirm 100% that Judd Apatow will make a bowel movement today. So?

You’ll recall that BloodyDisgusting, was recently pwned hard when they”100%” confirmed that Paul Thomas Anderson’s next film would be a horror movie and PTA then quickly quashed that erroneous rumor. Then the horror Pollyanna’s found major umbrage with Democratic candidate Barack Obama over his mild objections of some R-Rated films and they officially declared that he had lost the Horror/Torture Porn vote (like any of those cheesewhiz couch surfers ever voted). Of course then they realized this was silly and quickly took down the post (but watchful sites caught them red-handed).

Well, if their track record is any indication you know where this story is going. While Zombie apparently did take meetings (congratulations?), he turned down the ‘Conan’ script and his next film will apparently be “Tyrannosaurus Rex” which apparently has “nothing do to with dinosaurs.”

Ok, it’s not necessarily the hugest flub in the whole world, a meeting was taken, but we can’t help but smile over these guys can-do, special Olympic-like attitude in the face of ineptitude. We can’t wait to see what they cook up next.
