Arnold to next remake an old Randolph Scott movie'

You ever see SEVEN MEN FROM NOW? It was an old 1956 western starring Randolph Scott as a man bent on revenge after his wife and child are killed by... 7 men. He sets out to track each and everyone of the SOBs down and kill em in cold blood. It also featured ol Lee Marvin (someone you should idolize) and the movie was pretty damn good.

But you've probably never seen it. Nearly all them old Randolph Scott westerns aren't available to be seen on video, laserdisc or dvd. So... it makes excellent remake material for someone like Arnold.

Mind you, Zorianna Kit and Anita Busch didn't have access to the background of this project... it's basic roots... but I've been digging on this one for a while now. Hollywood Reporter is reporting that Warner Brothers and Schwarzenegger are close to signing up to make COLLATERAL DAMAGE, a much... tougher and testosterone driven title than SEVEN MEN FROM NOW, but it's still the same basic story... and I've been working on getting a copy of this script which I've heard is actually pretty damn good.

Zorianna and Anita say the film would begin shooting in June after Arnold finishes up THE SIXTH DAY, but then they postulate that Arnold would either make Cameron's TRUE LIES 2 (if a script is ready) or Frank Darabont and Chuck Russell's directorial team-up DOC SAVAGE: MAN OF BRONZE. I should be bumping into Frank pretty soon so I'll drill him for info and enlightenment on DOC SAVAGE, as I'm a diehard DOC SAVAGE fan... even got me Certificate of Savagery on my wall here at GEEK HEADQUARTERS.

Do ya think that in 40 years there will be some great parody of the latter 80's/90's action film starring some distinctly un-action fella who'll say the line, "You'd do it for Arnold Schwarzeneggar?!" to which a mass of imperiled citizens would cross their heart and sing his name like a church hymn? As John Wayne often said.... "That'll be the day...."
