PRIDE, PREJUDICE & ZOMBIES: Moving Forward?

Despite the poor performances of his scripted versions of Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter and Dark Shadows, Hollywood seemingly hasn't lost its interest in writer Seth Grahame-Smith as word has come from Deadline that Pride, Prejudice and Zombies may be moving forward.

Seth Grahame-Smith, just because you slap two things together that normally never would be does not make you clever. Anybody can do it. The Lord of the Flies and Vampires. See, that wasn't so hard. You have to do something with it or else it will come across as lazy.

I love how when we talk about this we focus on how bad those other two movies were.. cheesy, lame, slow and dumb...and then some people defend this dude as he FIXES the Fantastic Four....

Again i ask, after those two turds..and this one clearly on horizon...WTF would anyone want anything from these guys again...

Didn't they watch Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter to know that this idea is just as stupid?
