Ring of the Nibelungs "Brunnhilde's Rage"

The magic potion brewed by Alberich & administered by Hagen has cause Siegfried to forget Brunnhilde & instead fall in love with Gunther's Sister Kriemhilde.. In addition Gunther hides away as he asks Siegfried to shift his form using the Tarnhelm's magic to appear as Gunther, so he can fight Brunhilde & defeat her to win her as bride for Gunther.. On the return voyage, bloodbrotherhood is sworn between Siegfried & Gunther..

I editted this clips & added some Wagner, the "Ride of the Valkyries" will play during Brunnhildes battle with King Gunther (Siegfried disguised as Gunther)..

The Ride of the Valkyries theme coming out of nowhere is a complete abherration! I am a filmmaker and have my own radio show that promotes the resurgence of Wagner's music. But I must admit that the Valkyrie theme is so out of place here (and what a mediocre performance it is!) that it is almost comical. What a way to ruin a good piece of art!

Heh you're a fellow Wagnerian eh? I took get perturbed hearing Wagner defiled in mosquito repellant commercials & the such.. You got far more inapplicable abuses of Wagner going on than my piece, feel free to fry the bigger fish.. Untill then check out my "Twilight of the Gods" film project & some of the Uberheim videos & let me know what you think. Have you ever seen Der Ring Des Nibelungenlied live at the Met?, i have, i recall sipping Cognac at the opening of Rheingold immersed in das glory!

[arhanghel21l]

the music makes me laugh ... i don't know but you should have picked something more dramatic or i don't know.. just a opinion

[Azurean88]

Of course it makes you laugh, "Ride of the Valkyres" is bastardised in anything from mosquito repellant commercials to cleaning products... In the Wagnerian Ring Opera this is Brunnhildes theme & that of the Valkyre.. In the Nibelungs movie, this is Brunnhilde fighting Siegfried (disguised as Gunther)..

Brunhilde is trepresented here very well: the real viking woman, strong, proud and capable to fight and defeat men

[Miyuuko]

oh....come on you guys....don't watch this movie just because Robert Pattinson is in it....It is about a fascinating legend!

[siliyemoodislam]

WHAT THE FUCK...WAGNER?!

[bernisweltredsun]

[LudwigVaanArthans]

Thank the Gods I didn't watch TV too much and haven't seen any mosquito repellent commercials using this music so it all seemed perfect to me. Thank you for the upload.

[godivapaw]

@ehnin I agree! I love a strong woman who can fight and defeat men! Fierce!!!

[digimonworld123]

final fantasy to this wtf

[MassiveMeat]

@zizek

the double headed axe business is a bit rubbish, its these additions that make the whole thing silly

[MassiveMeat]

the volsung saga should be an epic film, if the like of lord of the rings and excalibur can do it then the muse to which they gained their story should be the greatest film ever made, how sigurd awoke brynhild upon hinderfell. and just to add that it is a a norse tale so longships are appropriate, the germanic version got in on the act later.

[alarik36]

The vikingships are a little out of place, but if they also want to mix in norse tradition, that´s great of course. But otherwise a great adaption of great germanic myths and sagas. Some runestones also have motiv from this epic story: Just look for: ramsundsberget, runstenar, sigurdsstenen etc, on Google..

[zizek]

What's wrong with trial by axe?
