Conan the Barbarian - 21 - The Kitchen/The Orgy

[@northernstar4811]

This movie is still way better than most modern day movies.

[@SpaceMarine113]

the atmosphere of the movie is so thick you can feel it. Modern movies feel vain and empty, they lack any atmosphere.

[@sci24iori13]

True facts

[@darkmattergamesofficial]

@@SpaceMarine113 Very true

[@lucisferre6361]

That is also accurate for preceding movies and will remain true into the foreseeable (and likely unforeseeable) future of cinema. Especially with the insanely overpriced dross that is currently punishing humanity. And the score is quite well put together and has a poignancy to it that is Tailor made for the scenes & events that occur.

[@NahualliUoxtitla]

People sneer when I tell them this is one of my favorites just because it has "Ahh-nold" in it, but it really does hold up very well against contemporary flicks.

[@AliIKarimi]

I love this scene. You have to imagine Conan, who has lived his whole life as a slave then as a gladiator. Treated like an animal: fighting, killing and breeding for an unknown master. Finally he wins his freedom and decides to take his revenge on the people who robbed him of his family, his youth, and his humanity. Yet he is killed before he can even fight Thulsa Doom, he speaks to him for a few minutes before being discarded, crucified on the tree of woe. He comes back from the afterlife, sneaks through hell, the bowels of Doom's sanctum and then sees "paradise", a place and life he has never even dreamed of. To see the orgy, to see Thulsa's inner sanctum is to take a glimpse into the world Conan never knew could be possible; a place of comfort and debauchery, a place without constant pain and suffering. To confront Thulsa here then is not simply to exact revenge, it is to fight the very God that has cursed Conan to a life of restless misery. It is appropriate that the music moves from a chorus chanting Hephaestus to a heavenly melody referencing Holt's Jupiter. This orgy is a glimpse of the cruelty and arrogance of the Gods, and of men like Thulsa Doom. Conan pauses for a moment, then destroys paradise.

The Orgy Theme is one of the most senuous pieces of music I have ever heard. Sort of reminds me of Ravel's Bolero, but sexier. Love that it was also done as a waltz. Now, if some beautiful belly dancer would do a dance to this, I would be in heaven.

The Cimmerian peered through the mouth of the cave and through the mists he spied six men seated around a giant oaken table. The figures, dressed in pirate regalia, sat slumped and unmoving in their bronze chairs, staring at the golden goblets of wine spilled carelessly on a silver table cloth. For a moment the Cimmerian stood silent, slightly abashed, but then he roared at them: "Well?! Are you all drunk?! You show damned poor courtesy to a fellow corsair. You might at least offer me a flagon of that wine you're all quaffing!" - The Treasure of Tranicos, Robert E. Howard.

Robert H. Howard always insisted that on many nights the shade of Conan would materialize to him in his writing study and stand behind him dictating his tales from 10,000 B.C. Indeed Howard argued that the words came so fast and furious that he could barely keep up with them on his typewriter.

[@heathkaarvakian7263]

Complete bullshit. You heard John Milius say that in interviews for the Conan the Barbarian DVD and took it as fact. R E H said that in jest and people, just like you, misunderstood what the writer wanted to convey. Howard always had a fascinating yet brutal way of writing a story as though it was dictated from the mouth of the hero or the chronicler of said hero. Thats why everything he wrote had such a grandiose mythos attached to it, something that was clearly embellished upon and much more larger than life. If you actually lived through any of Howard's fictional stories and wanted to share such a fantastic tale, would YOU embellish your role and make yourself out to be an even greater hero? He did write the ultimate 1920's pulp fiction fantasy after all. Fuck Tolkien, REH was the godfather of pulp fantasy sword and sorcery .... Fuck sakes, the first Conan story (Pheonix on the Sword) wasn't even a Conan story. It was a rejected King Kull story that was re-written as a Conan story and TA-DA the legend was born. Don't believe in every myth thrown your way, kid.

[@Rickwmc]

I stand corrected. Nevertheless, I am a Howard fan to the end.

[@Rickwmc]

You are entirely correct, maybe Howard meant the explanation as a joke or perhaps he never said anything like that at all and the tale just got concocted. In any case, you're right, Howard used that style which may go back to the "Muses" of Homer and Virgil. In any case, I am a Howard fan to the end.

Suddenly and without sound a man suddenly appeared from the glade. He was nearly a giant in stature and naked except for a loin cloth with a leather belt encrusted with jewels along with his leather sandals. Enormous muscles coiled on his arms, chest, thighs and legs but for all his massive build he glided with the suppleness of a panther. He wielded an enormous steel sword in his right hand and in his left a bronze axe. Volcanic blue eyes smoldered through a shock of straight black and his white teeth grinned wolfishly out of a scarred face.

[@CharlesJordan-f9e]

Nothing can prepare you for this soundtrack

[@superman87jk]

Roaring fires, dancing women...food ...drink...yessss barbarian world!

[@MetaMetalks]

8:20 fills me with so much power I feel like I could accomplish anything!

[@scrantondangler8068]

My favorite part from the movie & this song is definitely part of why it is.

[@Mauzer1999]

RIP James Earl Jones.

[@ThePatank]

that tune that begins at 2:20, forever will it have a place to stay in my mind

[@knasigboll]

this is bliss

[@GoogleUser-sk5tn]

It's why I looked up the soundtrack. I blast it loud in my home.

[@kevinnelson3525]

Hell, it took me 40 years to recall this part of the movie and the glorious soundtrack. Better late than never i guess

[@cole0424]

Shit gets real at 7:40

[@matthewpafford9669]

Lol oh yes

[@gerardov.9716]

👌

[@feltongailey8987]

This is still to date the most exquisite portion of ANY soundtrack my ears have been massaged with, particularly around 2 1/4. Loved since I was but a waif of 8.

[@annapplegoldfinch6931]

During the Kitchen part, I imagine a fiery dwelling within the bowels a volcano, hellish to behold at first, but instead of souls being tortured, miners and smiths from many races mine and forge metals in this inferno, humans, dwarves, elves, and giant ogres. Guarded by dragons, the smiths and miners use fire from the heart of the volcano to melt and shape their metals. Some with be used to make works of art. Some will be forged into weapons for warriors of light. And some will be sent to the peak of the volcano where the Goddess of Invention works her wonders in her Tower of Lighting. Only one is a slave here in the volcano, a huge, headless giant in chains who pumps the bellows to keep the fires going. The giant was a demonic king whose armies once warred with the Gods and threatened to wipe out all life so that the world would solely belong to his race. When the Gods defeated his armies, the Goddess of Life and Death sliced his head from his shoulders with a sickle moon, and condemned both parts to an eternal life of imprisonment. The head, which held his mind and spirit, had its mouth sewn shut, and was thrown into the deepest pit of the earth. The body, which was now nothing more than muscle, was used by the Gods to rebuild civilization, and eventually given over to the guardianship of the Fire God of Justice and Revenge, who keeps it within the volcano to this day. Sorry, the words got away from me there. Hope you don't mind the rambling.

[@albertomolina3868]

Brings back wonderful memiries of true cinema and storytelling. Movies today are garbage! Thank you Arnold and friends.

[@ninjabrandao2080]

right now as i'm listening to this this is bringing tears to my eyes and my mother is asking me why I'm crying and I told her the music does that to me

[@stereoplayers]

Music can be very powerful. The saying that music is a universal language is very true.

[@ATMAnubis]

8:05- "You....."

[@perakojot6071]

epic moment

[@suchiuomizu]

@@petermcdonald3119 ...Why did you type the random meaningless gibberish in response to comments that have nothing to do with whatever you are failing to coherently talk about?

[@Skye_Writer]

I want this, but only the parts from 2:15 to 6:28, lol! Have always loved that part of the song.

[@justinquaylepate1358]

Between 2:20& 6:25 is absolutely beautiful I could meditate on this music. Back in May of 1990, I was watching this movie and I went to sleep had most bazzare dream and when this music came on my dream shifted to me standing on the BELEM TOWER In Lisbon and over looking ghosts of girls in the water at the beaches.

[@sophiaperennis2360]

That section is the most complex part in this entire soundtrack, at least structurally.

[@aquasaur11]

I heard this music for the first time as a BGM in the Mod of the game called 'Rome: Total War'. When I first heard it, I imagined a scene where humorous savages were singing while enjoying the banquet. Recently, after watching the original Conan the Barbarian film, I was able to realize the terrifying image of the evil cult enjoying human flesh. On the other hand, I could imagine the cheerful image of the main characters destroying the banquet. Thank you for the music.

[@LordYllsacky]

Great song, don't really know why they keep mentioning asbestos though...

[@fridun007]

+Lord Yllsacky Hephaestus

[@guileniam]

God of the anvil hephaestus (I think that's how it's spelt).

[@LordYllsacky]

Totally agree, I hope that the new Conan movie (if they ever actually make it) will just use the old music. Because nothing will ever come close.

[@OZ88]

+Lord Yllsacky It is Hephaestus the ancient Greek god who produced lighting bolts for Zeus, the father of technology, in the movie think Conan as Prometheus who steals the fire from the gods (metaphorically that the Gods are false ones since they can die) and gets punished by Zeus by being hanged on Caucasus with an eagle eating his liver every day and Thulsa Doom as Hephaestus or Vulcan or the Biblical Tubal Cain. Remember the era of Conan is between the flood (Atlantis or Noah's cataclysm or Deucalion's cataclysm) and the rise of the sons of Arias a.k.a. Christianity, paganism and polytheistic religions had the upper hand at that time.

[@guileniam]

Georgios Papadopoulos​ Sons of aryas* referring to the Aryan race, probably indo-europeans or the indo-iranians (Persians and the Ancient Hindus, from whom the term originated). They developed Greek and Roman culture- so western civilisation by extension, affected the middle east through the persian empire (and Judaism, christianity and islam as a result) as well as starting the original form of Hinduism in India and by extension Indian culture (Yoga, karma etc) and its offshoots such as Buddhism (creating much of eastern culture).

[@happyhammer1]

The most badass scene in cinematic history.

[@Guiga542]

Linda música! Representou toda dramaticidade e significado da cena!! Impactante!!

[@Rick-f4j]

The bandit Olgerd Vladislav rode his stallion to the top of the hill where the Cimmerian hung crucified. He turned to his mounted chieftains and bellowed: "Queen Taramis must be discarding all her old favorites, including (with a knowing smile) this dying dog." Conan, shaking the blood and sweat from his eyes, looked down at the bearded raider and growled: "If I could come down from off of this cross, I'd make a dying dog out of you, you Zaparoskan thief." - Robert E. Howard from A Witch Shall Be Born (1934).

[@grif529]

И родилась ведьма!

[@Rickwmc]

Olgerd Vladislav rode his horse up to the man nailed to a cross exclaiming to his men: "Queen Taramis must be getting rid of her favorites, including" with a smiling nod to the crucified Cimmerian "this dying dog!" Glaring through blood and sweat in his eyes Conan growled: "If I could come down off from this cross, I'd make a dying dog out of you, you Zaporoskan thief!" - A Witch Shall Be Born (1934) Robert E. Howard.

[@freakydeke1]

chills down my spine love it

[@rustyshackleford6906]

Whoever put an add before the climax of the song needs to contemplate their sins on the tree of woe.

[@ademirstabury4175]

crom ,This melody is fantastic...

[@aug-pahunters51]

I needed another set at deadlift. This is good. All ppl are good. This pleases CROM.
