[@redpillcommando]

Whenever I listen to Gram Hancock lecture or I read his books about our lost history I think of Conan and the Hyborian Age. There is now evidence that humans were in North America 130,000 years ago. Gobeklitepe provides archelological proof that humans were building cities long before main stream academics will admit was possible. Perhaps Robert E. Howard was on to something.

[@runswithphantoms1757]

There's at least a good 5,000 years between the Great Cataclysm that ended the Younger Dryas Ice Age and the advent of what we used to think was the oldest known civilization, Sumer. It's probable that ~5 thousand years was when a real Age of Heroes took place, when the survivors of The Flood competed for control over the leftovers of a fallen advanced civilization. *We need more history from that era.* If the legends are true, it would have been a wonderous yet brutal, and magical era. The magic being ancient tech that's too old to work or understand. Edit: Permian to Younger Dryas. Or ought it be Pleistocene?

Fire and wind struck down these giants, and they threw their bodies into the waters, but in their rage, the gods forgot the secret of steel and left it on the battlefield. We who found it are just men. Not gods. Not giants. Just men. The secret of steel has always carried with it a mystery. You must learn its riddle, Conan. You must learn its discipline.

There's so much manliness in this score i feel like i just went to the gym and pushed the wheel of pain for a few hours trying to solve the riddle of steel!

@@fimucite very kind but I am truly humbled by the performance of the conductor. Wish I had been there and looking at the audience reaction it is plain to see that something very special had happened. Merry Christmas. Hooch

[@yuchenchen8012]

@Heather Murray No one who has played in an orchestra will ever say that lol. No performer is looking at a composer 100 percent of the time, but they will always pay attention to his movements with the side of their eyes. A great orchestra is unified by what the composer perceives as the right amount of dynamics for each section

[@josephparrotta1159]

When this film was being made, the producer ( who had NO understanding of what the director was going for) wanted the entire soundtrack to be 80s pop music. You can thank the director for standing his ground.

[@lordspam2721]

Joseph Parrotta because of the sound score, you can’t even tell it was made in the 80s. Not many films can say the same from that time. Was amazed by the quality on the Blu-ray.

[@alexandreandrade5365]

Source?

I shudder at the very thought. Surprisingly often the music determines how well a movie stands the test of time, there's also the fact that it would have ruined the whole film.
