The Conan movies were easily some of the best movies ever made.

The music always gives me goosebumps.

Basil Poledouris lives forever because of these soundtracks.

Everything i needed to know about life i learned in Conan movies.

A soundtrack can make and break a movie. This one echoes through out time.

[cjdude]

Back when music made you feel heroic as a kid in a school fight

Listening to Mako recite the intro speech in Barbarian was a wonderful thing. Gruff and low and hung on the words and gave a sense of some epic adventure afoot.

By comparison in Destroyer he sounds like he was late for a coffee break and quickly rushed the lines out with no real feeling. One of a lot of things that sums up the differences between the movies.

“The days of high adventure” sound a lot better then the days of social distancing.

[vojtechdjakov]

You can say anything about the movie, but this intro is fucking epic :D

[GokkunGuru]

Mako’s voice was awesome as the narrator. RIP!

"Between the years when the oceans drank Atlantis and the rise of the sons of Aryas, there was an age undreamed of, when shining kingdoms lay spread across the world. Hither came Conan, the Cimmerian, sword in hand. It is I, his chronicler, who knows well his saga. Now, let me tell you of the days of high adventure."

2:33 You know thats why you love this song. Admit it. It opens up your soul leading you off into the luscious paradise that awaits you.

[andrewtm]

Still better than the recent shit Hollywood has put out. The soundtrack is triumphant!!!

Transition to “Anvil Of Crom” theme is brilliant at 2:34

[conanone]

At 2:33 close your eyes and just listen, I swear brings me back to the 80's when life was good

I think the two Conan films balance each other well. The first was gritty and more 'real' if you want to put it that way, while the second was more adventurous and fun. I think they play off of each other well and are both immensely enjoyable in their own right.

I come back here every now and then to witness this greatness once again.

[Valashu]

Best epic music and overall intro over all the time in movie history. I love it. Masculin, Freedom, Proud.

[conanone]

If this intro doesn't inspire you to do anything with yourself than my friend Crom laughs at you

1:48...I love the way the horses do their battle cry!!!
