Conan The Barbarian - Opening scenes

[@MrKajithecat]

Conan's father is actually telling the story of Atlantis' fall: Cimmerians in the world of Conan are descendants of Atlanteans, the "Giants", who were believed to have been punished by gods for their arrogance, and with their fall much knowledge was initially thought lost - like the "Riddle of Steel"; advanced metallurgy - but some survived thanks to people who descended from them. By the time of Conan it has already been ages since the fall of Atlantis, and history has become mythologized.

You MUST read the original version from "Phoenix on the Sword". KNOW, oh prince, that between the years when the oceans drank Atlantis and the gleaming cities, and the years of the rise of the Sons of Aryas, there was an Age undreamed of, when shining kingdoms lay spread across the world like blue mantles beneath the stars-Nemedia, Ophir, Brythunia, Hyperborea, Zamora with its dark-haired women and towers of spider-haunted mystery, Zingara with its chivalry, Koth that bordered on the pastoral lands of Shem, Stygia with its shadow-guarded tombs, Hyrkania whose riders wore steel and silk and gold. But the proudest kingdom of the world was Aquilonia, reigning supreme in the dreaming west. Hither came Conan, the Cimmerian, black-haired, sullen- eyed,sword in hand, a thief, a reaver, a slayer, with gigantic melancholies and gigantic mirth, to tread the jeweled thrones of the Earth under his sandalled feet.

[@JorgeGonzalez-km5mu]

One of the best openings in movie history. And it isn't just the words, powerful as they are, Mako's intonation is pitch perfect in this case.

[@happisakshappiplace.6588]

Hollywood has forgotten the Riddle of Steel and left it in the movie theatre. Crom laughs at them.

Actually, according to Howards supporters, JRR actually liked the Conan series. I'm not the least surprised, because they are well written, the vocabulary is wonderful, it's good honest manly adventures and Conan has morals. He's not a 'barbarian' in the historical sense of the term, he has an inner virtue and moral standard, his personal honor that is based on 'mostly' Christian values, that he never violates. Wonderful novels that encourage young men to read.

Subotai for finding him, the wizard for healing him and Valeria paying with her life for his resurrection and healing. Valeria even came to him after death to save his life in battle, just as she swore she would. Conan was fortunate to have deeply loyal friends.

Besides pure raw power and brutality, Conan the Barbarian is also a Philosophical movie. Everything that his father taught him on that mountain turns out not to be true in Conan's case. "For no one - no one in this world can you trust. Not men, not women, not beasts..." [Points to sword] "This you can trust." In truth, he trusted Subotai and Valeria, and that very sword broke in a critical moment. He got his revenge but at the highest price. He lost the woman he loved and their warmth. That's why he was sitting on those stairs at the end, contemplating about all this.... was it worth it? Crom roars YES, or he would only lead him back here another day. In even worse company.

[@chiron13]

You are correct about the movie, but the father's advice is relevant to all freedom loving people today. It answers the question _ "Why do you need a gun?".

[@MALICEM12]

@@chiron13 there is a difference in saying " a sword is necessary to repel tyrants" and "you can't trust anyone or anything in life, but the sword". The scene wasn't commentary on the 2nd amendment. Furthermore, you were so fixated on this scene that you lost the ending conclusion. It wasn't the sword that carried Conan through slavery, hardship, loss and even death. It was his will. Let me then ask you "lover of freedom" what is the point of the gun if no one has the will to use it? We live in a technocratic dystopia, and people who speak as you do haven't actually done anything in generations. We were freer a century ago then we are now, but all we have are cowards with more guns than they could ever use. What good have they done us when none have the will of Conan? That is the final lesson of this movie, its wisdom. Will is stronger than steel, and steel with no will to use it is useless.
