These are the three I’m feeling tonight… - Conan the Barbarian by Basil Poledouris - Star Trek The Motion Picture by Jerry Goldsmith - Close Encounters of the Third Kind by John Williams

neutral · AI labelView post →I think Conan the Barbarian has to be in the conversation for best soundtrack of all time. Arnold says like 350 words the whole movie, and it falls to the score to do all of the emotional heavy lifting and it doesn't so much rise to the challenge as ascend majestically

Considered one of the most influential Italian poster designers, Casaro leaves behind a legacy of hand-painted artwork for thousands of films, including such classics as Conan the Barbarian, Octopussy, and A Fistful of Dollars. He was 89.

neutral · AI labelView post →But the "brainless barbarian" trope didn't start with Howard. I suspect it's associated with him in part because of the CONAN THE BARBARIAN (1982) film. Arnold Schwarzeneggar doesn't play Conan as stupid or illiterate either - hell, he can read the poetry of Khitai and the philosophy of Tsung!

neutral · AI labelView post →1982's Conan the Barbarian is a movie about Arnold Schwarzenegger kicking ass and fighting snakes...but it also presents a far more thoughtful, sympathetic version of Conan than people realize. Let's talk beefy heroes, Thulsa Doom, and...feminism?

positive · AI labelView post →my top level, absolutely no spoilers thought on Weapons: the best moments of Weapons are better than the best moments of Barbarian, but Barbarian is, as a whole, a much better movie
neutral · AI labelView post →Forget the games or lame movies, the only thing you need to know about Resident Evil, Zach Cregger's follow up to hits Barbarian and Weapons is that it's a brilliant horror film AND action movie that makes Evil Dead Burn or 28 Years Later look like junk. 5 out of 5 film-authority.com/2026/09/19/r...
neutral · AI labelView post →BUT... all that aside, that's easily the best Resident Evil film ever made and in the running for the best videogame movie ever made. As with Barbarian, the stuff that doesn't work hurts more because of how incredible the stuff that does work is. Overall a great experience.

neutral · AI labelView post →37) Even a bad Sword & Sorcery film has something to teach you I'm fully onboard with the idea that a bad film teaches you more about filmmaking than a good one, and that is especially true with S&S following the release of CONAN THE BARBARIAN (1982), with so many terrible & wonderful movies.

neutral · AI labelView post →Conan The Barbarian (2011). Terrible, terrible film. Humans are like bags of blood that pop like paintballs when you puncture them. Every fight is an action painting. It's not even a good bad film. There is nothing to entertain here. Even Morgan Freeman was bored. By Crom, this was bad.
