Tony teams up with @Klayton Fioriti to talk about a film that they believe is the perfect sword and sorcery film! The first big screen adaptation of the classic Robert E. Howard character, Conan The Barbarian. Starring Arnold Schwarzenegger and James Earl Jones. Orphaned boy Conan (Arnold Schwarzenegger) is enslaved after his village is destroyed by the forces of vicious necromancer Thulsa Doom (James Earl Jones), and is compelled to push "The Wheel of Pain" for many years. Once he reaches adulthood, Conan sets off across the prehistoric landscape of the Hyborian Age in search of the man who killed his family and stole his father's sword. With beautiful warrior Valeria (Sandahl Bergman) and archer Subotai (Gerry Lopez), he faces a supernatural evil.

@

@basementofmars19632 years ago Interesting little fact: they reused the same death scream when the guy gets the spike through the chest for the old sega genesis game golden axe. I only also the part with the evil spirits trying to take conan reminded me a lot of berserk where guts is haunted by similar evil spirits. I kind of wonder if that was inspired by the movie. ...Expand 6

@allluckyseven2 years ago Two things:
- klayton' s impression of arnie is absolutely on point!
- when you guys talk about the princess calling for " her id="hidden16" i think she' s calling thulsa doom her father.
but yeah, awesome video of an awesome movie, which is one of my favorites, an absolute 10 outta 10. And i do have that double-sizedas well! Bought it exclusively because of the stuff about ron cobb and got a bunch more about the movie!. ...Expand

@SynthAddict2 years ago Great review of a near perfect movie, just like the ' 82 remake of the thing - 1982 was a great year for movies
i love the first 2 terminator the milius/arnold commentary is a classic where arnold keeps talking about what the locals do with the grain from the wheel of pain and milius changes the subject:
go watch the milius documentary - he was a hell of a real character and a talent. ...Expand 2

@yourbigheadcousin54342 years ago I always found it funny that conan was shy about his body considering arnold was only in the movie bec he' d put on a speedo and posed for hundreds of people hundreds of times. 2

@nemesislygr89602 years ago To this day still one of the best commentaries ever put to a movie. Arnold is full blown horn dog and just hilarious. Makes fun of everything, even the kid for looking like he' s wearing lipstick.

@Pikkuu2 years ago Great review.
s&s movies with awesome video covers?
deathstalker i, ii, the sword and the sorcerer
conquest (1983)
the barbarians (aka the barbarian brothers)
hawk the slayer
i kinda liked the bluescreen with conan' s father' s little talk, it gave a surreal, otherworldly backdrop to the scene, like it' s just evoking crom' s gloomy mountaintop world, rather than actually having climbed a high mountain in inadequate gear just to talk about gods and steel and stuff.
there was a " writing spells all over someone" in the japanese ghost stories movie kwaidan (1965) in the " hochi the earless" segment. ...Expand
@

@georgemetcalf87632 years ago The score during the scene where they' re sneaking in to the palace, the rhythm of the drums, is the same as the opening score of the seven samurai.

@NinjaRunningWild2 years ago Any fan of this & heavy metal should look up the fan edit " conan: man of war" it' s conan the barbarian set to a manowar soundtrack. 2

@asa-punkatsouthvinland71452 years ago Krull is a sci-fi fantasy mix. Yes there is sorcery, swords, castles, etc but the main bad guys are explicitly stated to be aliens i believe. So in a way it' s a lot like masters of the universe or black star. 1
