Atlantean Sword - Conan the Barbarian Theme (Basil Poledouris)

[centurion180ad]

Robert E. Howard, is way cool!

[bigchris1234]

This is my favorite music in the whole movie and epitomizes the old school Swords and Sorcery genre in my opionion. Finding the sword that is 1000's of years old is great.

[arturbb]

Am I the only one who truly enjoyed the new film?

[soundbeans]

@arturbb YES... you are the only person with mental retardation here.

[passionofmusic1000]

@soundbeans hey the remake was pretty good i thought,i found it was far more accurate,and (despite it set in a fictional world) more realistic with conan's rising from a boy,the riddle of steel and conan was portrayed as an actual barbarian,though the original soundtrack is better,i think the character of conan in the remake was more believable

[PureDiamondFilms]

@arturbb I am with you bro

[jamesmcleod1986]

HEAR US O' CROM! The Tale of your mightiest champion hath been defiled! Sing in us Great Crom and teach how we may deliver a tale of Conan, who forged a kingdom by his own hand and shook the pillars of the very Earth! Sing in us Great Crom so that we may tell the tale of Conan the Barbarian in such a way that doth not defile his mighty image!

[Bragithepoet]

@jamesmcleod1986

Aye, well said bard.

[SuperZack311]

I never saw the remake and I never will. I made that mistake when I saw Indiana Jones Crystal skull and the new star wars movies. I'm tired of seeing my childhood cheapened in these shitty sequels and remakes.

[opticannon]

@SuperZack311 WHAT?!? NO....not getting off track here but the crystal skull and the prequels were fantastic man....speaking of the conan remake though, dont bother seeing it. fucking garbage. right from when the father cuts conan out of his mothers womb while she acts as if shes passing gas. then afterwards gives baby conan his name. did i mention that this was brought about because she was run through?

[DickCrenna]

I'll have to say it.....the remake is....dinner for wolf.

[TheMajastaet]

And Crom, if you´ll ever like this shitty remake, then to hell with ya!

[saklartbra]

*looking at all the pun-filled comments* and so, a remake has been done :)

[DarkWizardMonkey]

I would like another movie based on the stories by Robert E. Howard.

[LittleJ2008]

Anyone who dislikes this has heard the lamentation of their woman.

[TheHasanMurat]

"Theres nothing in the world you can trust, Conan." " Not men, not the women , nor beasts." This you can trust"( Waves with sword)

[TheHasanMurat]

Once giants walked the earth, Conan.

[MRELTUCO2]

Rest in Peace Basil Poledouris.

[MrBastilleDay]

Right before this: "It has been surmised that perhaps my lord had been like a cagd animal that had been kept too long. Perhaps, but whatever. Freedom, so long an unremembered dream...was his." LOVE how Akiro talked!

[Scoobage97]

This right here is why I'm not too excited for the new flick. I think the new dude will be fine for the role - at least as fine as Arnie was - but my fear is that the score will consist of cheese-metal or a freeze-dried "symphony" performed by some nimrod with a Mac.

Conan the Barbarian, for me, remains interesting 30 years later because the mood set by the ingenious Basil Poledouris sucked me into it. A CGI driven wank-fest just ain't my idea of a good time, much less something I'll remember.

[edmmitch]

@Scoobage97 youre a good guy man, youre talkin wisely.

[sigamarinha]

OMG listen carefully to this song..there is no words for such a GOOD song like this one..basil polidouris is a true talent

[sigamarinha]

arnold became a KING in the movie..nowadays hes a GOD for the fans

[MrBastilleDay]

The makers of that Conan remake....infidel defilers...they shall drown in lakes of blood.

[sigamarinha]

@MrBastilleDay they ruined conan

[SixgunSam223]

@doandroiddream Well you never know what if the new movie isn't all that bad, I mean so long as it is better than the second movie, then that'd be fine by me.

[Stoksie01]

by director im talking about the second one it was fking terrible in so many ways compared to the first one

[rodriguezmontiago]

Can the one person that "disliked" this track come back and say something, or are you to too busy finding some Lady Gaga classic jams to come back and tell us why you think this sucks?

[SixgunSam223]

@MrShadeviperx I agree it would have been nice to know how Conan became king of aquilonia, but at least predator was an excellent film in it's own right (at least if you're asking me).

Also what does everyone hate about the new conan movie, I personally don't see what the big deal is, and I'm wondering what your opinion is on the matter.

[Stoksie01]

@SixgunSam223 i didnt like the idea at the start but after seeing game of thrones a golden crown i know he can be a great conan people need to embrace the idea of it starting fresh and becoming the franchise it was meant to be but never got the money or right director

[doandroiddream]

@Stoksie01 Why should we embrace the idea of Conan being remade as Syfy channel fare? No thanks.

[AdamWeith]

Remake! Good, goooood!

...Problem?

[mattadams007]

Digitally Remaster it, Blue Ray it, Remaster the Sound and One of The Greatest Soundtracks of All Time.... but for the Love of GOD don't Remake it, Hollywood Your Gonna Fuck this Up and I'll have to come to the West Cost and Lay Waste to You All.

[MrShadeviperx]

it's bullcrap that arnold decided to do predator instead of Conan the conqueror. Now we'll never know how conan was supposed to truly end.

[osmosys808]

By Crom that maid looks pretty good...

[skylinecapajev007]

Only one Conan exist..Arnold forever!!!!!!

[johnnyray1717]

I've seen Conan the Barbarian so many times, I can recite every single word of the movie without watching it. The movie is truly imbeded in my mind. I love it !

[GunnerSCF]

Pure art...the movie and its soundtrack.

[Chumandoo3]

CRRROOOMMM...

[anvilofcrom]

The best film soundtrack ever writen...absolutely brilliant.

[haseihuse]

1:06 NOW WHERE THE HELL ARE THOSE KLEENEX WHEN YOU NEED THEM?

[goodhurts]

that is strength boy, that is power! what is steel compared to the hand that yields it?

[singularityoneone]

This movie was made perfect.

Any remake would be a sham. Especialy if its PG-13.

PG-13 is the worst thing hollywood ever did.

[glynchandeliers]

@singularityoneone Crom laughs at this remake. He laughs from his mountain!

[Denis1735]

This movie is years old and it beats most of our movies now-a-days, why the FUCK would we make a remake and make it look bad?

[anvilofcrom]

@Denis1735 They'll probably give the new conan a hip hop soundtrack and have Will Smith in the role.

[rodriguezmontiago]

@anvilofcrom I lol'd

[kabilful]

hahahahahha veryyyyyyyyyyyy ggggoooooooooooooooooooodd!!!!­!!!!!

[19GirlBad]

this is part 4 the soundtrack.

[raf7550]

"Crom!"

[UltraMatt]

great music

reading alot of the comments about the new movie..I think it's important to point out the Conan movie is NOT a remake. It's a totally diffrent story, along with a totally diffrent take on the charcter. It's in many ways it's own thing.

[rayct02131988]

Conan is the shit! to bad there's only like 2 of these movies. red sonja is also good and similar.

[AWorldTv]

Their is only one Conan and that is not jason mamoa

[cochechin84]

@AWorldTv roung arnold it's conan you dont know what is the riddle of steel boy

[Bluemagus]

I love Conan the Barbarian. It's my favorite movie of all time, I have a glimmer of hope for the Remake even though Destroyer sucked, it wasn't the worst fantasy epic ever made. It was bad yes but I've seen far worse, Deathstalker anyone? it's the Directors dream project after all. So he'll probably handle it with the best of care, Robert E.Howard is a great writer who wrote great characters. And with the solomon kane movie that came out I have hopes that the new conan will be decent.

[surf3rsnapper]

@Bluemagus yeah red sonja very sad indeed aswell as destroyer. funny how the first conan wasnt really thought out that well but turned out great scenery music storyline not too much fiction thats what they need in the next one. and if they do it might just make it

[sheiksevensage]

No good movie like this should be remade.

There are other good movies as this one that were remade, and they messed them up badly.

[monco1]

best soundtrack ever.......



[JimHawpah]

Does anyone know what happened to Subotai?

I strike the question because in the "Destroyer" Conan's new partner mentions the camel, but he never witnesses the drunken camel punch. It was Subotai who was there, not the terrible new companion they put in for the sequel.

[socialgarbage2]

Conan the Barbarian, and The Last of the Mohicans, 2 soundtracks that touched my soul.

[crashman6]

This is the only Conan movie for me. Conan the Destroyer was just that, a destroyer of what should have been a great franchise- "let's make it so kids can see it". Blah, anyway, F&#$ the remake!

[KettlePal]

Its a shame Basil can't be around to make the soundtrack for the remake.. It won't be the same without a mind-blowing score.

[MaxHailerPuig]

My favourite soundtrack!! Luckily Poledouris convinced de Laurentis not to make an action-techno soundtrack.

[overdosisbringslife]

Best movie and soundtrack ever!!!!

[Raultyphoon]

Epic just epic! Masterpiece OST

[december2364]

Anyone contemplating a Conan remake should contemplate it on the Tree of Woe.

[Armorchafe]

@december2364 lol nice

[DaisyChains1987]

@december2364 LOL completely agree with you there :) It would only be ruined if a re-make was done.

[KhanSlayer]

@december2364 greatest comment of all time hands down

[TheHighlander1492]

@december2364 :).....hahahhahah....I m agree with you.Conan the Barbarian is ONE!!!

[destructovision]

@december2364 dude, that may be the best comment I ever read, and so true.

[december2364]

Maybe we'll be pleasantly surprised by a Conan remake....

..but I f*cking doubt it. Some films should just be left alone and this is one.

[Keelox100]

Totally agree with december2364.

I mean this is one of the greatest movies of our times, original is original. They can keep failing by remaking movies, i'd say ''Get new ideas you lazy bums'' instead of going for easy buck by remaking movies, specially as great movies like this one. No matter what, you will not get ME to see your remake, i tell you that right now!

[Joemaster25]

one of the best movies of all time ... and best fucking soundtrack ever....

[wwwNooBcom]

If they get the right director it will be ok, think of the quality of lord of the rings with the brutality of conan, the main character is going to be a job in itself to cast, Arnold reaaly made the roll his own I thought

[surf3rsnapper]

yeah even though acting is rough n all the music and scenery really make it

and arnold actually suites the dumb northman ( i only say dumb cause the acting was poor we all know it ) but he did it well still and i love this movie! n

NO REMAKES!

[conan584]

Now, thats a great Sound ! The New Conan Movie comes 2010!

[JokerRecordings]

Not if I can help it. A movie like this should NOT be remade.

[Hyperbadboy]

Amen.

[lewko1]

Ooooh.. I bet Arnie is real scared!

[Mrtinkyloo]

@JokerRecordings

It worked for "Batman Begins" and unlike that movie, not Michael Bay nor one of his lackeys had a major part in the final cut of the movie.

[ca9999]

@JokerRecordings absolutely agree. All the remakes of classical movies will be fucked up. Arnold IS THE ORIGINAL CONAN.

[rachskald]

@JokerRecordings agreed... as if the sequel wasn't bad enough, right? ;)

[Pumablues2525]

A movie like this shouldn't, a less butchered interpretation of Robert E Howard's Conan stories would be nice though.

[draklorian]

@JokerRecordings well i see no new conan movie, you seem to have done something, they will not replace our great adventurer!

[TripolisUnited]

@JokerRecordings While I am inclined to agree with you, I disagree. You can't really know until its been done. In all likelihood, the remake will be a shadow of the original, but you simply cannot know until its been made. It COULD be great. It COULD pay homage to the original adequately, and bring attention back to the original masterpiece.

[empath69]

@JokerRecordings Your (and my) 'efforts' have delayed it, but it doesn't seem completely buried yet; still time to hope, though!

[TheSubzerogr]

@JokerRecordings LIKE!!!

[killgore333333]

@JokerRecordings but if it is it should be remade by anyone who isnt one of holywoods shitlist "topdogs"

[3535kevin]

@JokerRecordings My words exactly

[ca9999]

@conan584 Only if Arnold comes back. Without Arnold, it will be trash like the other remake movies.

[TheGatekeeper7thSeal]

People knew right away they were getting an epic movie cause of opening music.
