@Wote89 According to Chambers' book, "The Devil's Horsemen," the Khan prayed to the Sky Father in advance of his war against Khwarizm, saying something like, "I was not the author of these troubles...grant me the power to exact revenge!"
this movie is #1 of all time.. notice that James Earl tries to pull the ol' "I am your father" to Conan at the end of the movie... just like in Empire
"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. No, all that matters is that two stood against many that's whats important. Valor pleases you Crom so grant me one request, GRANT ME REVENGE! And if you do not listen.... THEN TO HELL WITH YOU!!"
@quinnofearth -Speaking as a PERSONAL PAGAN, I believe it was," I HAVE NO TONGUE FOR IT "....Everyone has time to pray, If that is their PERSONAL PREFERENCE.....
I failed the driving test three times. The last failure meant I couldn't drive for three months. After that, I signed up for a new test. Before I took it, I recited this speech. I passed.
@osiud It doesn't. It may be more faithful to the original stories, but it's just not a better film whatsoever. Nothing about it touches the original. Who gives a damn if it's 'closer' to the original when in the end it's just not that great of a film. After seeing the new version, there was NOTHING, absolutely nothing that was memorable about it.

This scene is pathetic. The real Conan would NEVER say that even under these circumstances, not only that but the real Conan would slay that entire army in no time.
@osiud It won't becuase it is more influenced by the original Robert E. Howard stories which has a Conan who NEVER prays, especially to a God like Crom becuase this Crom HATES praying and PUNISHES those who do.
@MrCure4 Because Crom endows his children with his blessing at birth, and those who ask for more are too weak and don't appreciate what they already have been given.
Crom has 3 youtube accounts!

That last quote is another paraphrase from Genghis Khan. The filmmaker was obviously schooled on the history of the Mongols. Pretty cool.

@Kedbuka Probably not the filmmaker per se, but the scriptwriter. Robert Jordan, I believe it was. Yes, that Robert Jordan.
