Mum and dad took me to the theatre for my 11th birthday. When we got home mum was horrified what we just seen, dad was happy and l spent the next few weeks playing Conan with my mum's broom. Today l'm in my 50s and still watch this epic movie minus the broom...

The image of Subotai watching into the distance as the riders come is breathtaking. As he moves laterally the camera shifts along with him, keeping the viewer locked into his view. Genius camera work. The music builds, the impending truth of what's coming is amazing. The cinematography showing the riders to the backdrop of Conan speaking to Crom, again brilliant and Epic.

They dont make em like this anymore.

[bookergrimm]

No shit CGI, no stupid effects or charcters doing impossible things, just great stunts, amazing music, great setting and pure excitment. One of the very best battle scenes.

"Crom, I have never prayed to you before. I have no tongue for it. No one, not even you, will remember if we were good men or bad. Why we fought, or why we died. All that matters is that two stood against many. That's what's important! Valor pleases you, Crom... so grant me one request. Grant me revenge! And if you do not listen, then to HELL with you!" - Conan the Barbarian.



I first heard this monologue when I was 14, and it instantly put hair on my chest.

Never get tired watching this movie. It stands the test of time in eternity.

In this scene, Conan solves the riddle of steel. It's not steel (i.e. the weapon) that makes you strong, as Conan's father believed, nor flesh (i.e. bodies), as Thulsa Doom claimed. It's willpower. Two warriors defeat many, because of their indomitable will.

[Maclabhruinn]

Some people were rather snooty about this movie when it first came out - crass, banal, low-brow, Schwarzenegger has not acting talent, etc - but like Arnie himself, it has stood the test of time; and still stands head and shoulders above thousands of other movies that came and went. "Crom, so grant me one request: grant me revenge!". Epic!!!!

[LakisGrafanakis]

An amazing epic scene. The soundtrack to this movie is possibly one of the best ever made. Truly outstanding

[earendil]

Basil Poledouris score for this scene in particular is legendary. Amazing film

[pmoynsv]

Best soundtrack to a movie ever. No way you can prove me wrong. Soundtrack turned an 80s action movie into a masterpiece. Basil deserved an award.

God, even the shot of Subotai just standing guard at the beginning is mesmerizing.

[fredericosantos]

As many here have already said, I repeat: all this here didn't need millions of dollars in CGI to get the attention of the general public. A well-crafted script and well-executed practical effects prove they will always stand the test of time.

[rayanderson]

Can we talk about the tactical smarts on display here, though? I don't want to say 'brilliance' because even I saw some things they could have handled better, but let's run through a few of the high points:
-Wore heavy armor and took up better weapons. They were available, why not use them?
-Took up a position in terrain that would reduce the cavalry's advantage. The close quarters of the stones almost made their horses more of a liability than an asset.
-Knowing what routes the horses would be forced to take in those close quarters, they set up traps, not only taking advantage of their terrain, but also of the advantage they had in terms of time to prepare.

In short, Conan didn't win this fight because of plot armor. He won this fight because he was smart and brave.

[emptyhand]

That is the type of prayer Crom would answer, and he did, allowing Valeria to come to Conan's aide.

[posest]

This movie came out 40 years still epic.

[Doomthulsa]

The sweeping shot of Subotai... the drums kicking in. MASTERPIECE!

[zylo]

That armor that Conan and his friend are wearing looks like it has great stats.

[muhammadnoorbinrohani]

Conan The Barbarian is the best movies in the world.

[bulletsofoldschool]

[craigcibrone]
