indeed. one of the greats.

The word "legendary" is too small a word to describe James Earl Jones's career and influence. He was beyond legendary.

From now on, I'm going to replace "Have a nice day," with "Contemplate this on the Tree of Woe."
A few years ago, before I retired, I walked into our control room one morning to relieve the night operator. He was an overly friendly guy, jocular, but a complete moron, and was known for major errors that endangered our water distribution system. I walked in the room and he wasn't there, he was in the restroom. Quickly scanning the screens, I saw he'd left me a hot steaming pile to try and recover. In he walks all happy and chirpy and begins with his typical greeting. I was so angry that I just cut him off with what could have been a movie line ... "Dispense with the pleasantries, why is this tank almost empty?" He was so taken aback that I heard several days later he had told others, and they began facetiously using the "dispense with the pleasantries" line with ME!
I can respect that! Id be impressed if someone said that to me. lol

Thulsa Doom is an amazing villain.
And unlike the next villains, he’s not desperately trying to be intimidating. He’s just naturally speaking and that’s terrifying.

This is actually a well produced and directed film with good cinematography, pretty good acting- even from Arnold- a great score from a master of his craft, and engaging story. Under-rated film.
Soundtrack is soooo good!
Agreed on all points.
Great Movie
The international makes it even better (us dvd release had this cut, but not the blu ray for some reason...)
Under-rated…Who told you that?
I really loved how they were able to paint how the conan books aren't just pages of brainless stabby slash kill, they manage to portray the pretty complex character of conan and the world he lives in.
One of my favourite Conan stories is where he's one step ahead of a band of cutthroat pirates, laughing at them as they fume and plot. The stories offer an easier path to the inside of Conan's mind. He's not a dumb brute. He's a cunning, observant, SMART brute.
@@ZaprozhanI also love how Conan doesn’t always win in the books. The feeling is always, “Wow, that could’ve gone better, but thank God it didn’t go worse.”

@lorenzocassaro3054 I mean he wasn't King just in name either... he knows like 5 languages and was pretty good at handling diplomacy.. its kinda sad most people think Conan is just that a dumb brute
@@ghekor Hard not to make some confusion, when the only images of him are of a naked man with an oversized sword, surrounded by corspses, with a Gigachad-like expression.
He can get beautiful maidens to leap to their death. He can toss you on the Tree of Woe like you're nothing. Yea, that's pretty much earning your name: Thulsa Doom lol.

Yes they are. Pull your head from your ass numbnuts.
@@rancorloverthis too…
Plenty of actors that have come after him that are just as great. Is he in the pantheon of ALL TIME GREATS? emphatically; yes. But to say "actors aren't made like him anymore" does a massive disservice to some great actors we have in our time RIGHT NOW, such as Denzel Washington, Tom Hanks, Tom Hardy and even some of the newer generation actors who are doing phenomenal work such as Austin Butler, Timothee Chalamet, and even Robert Pattinson.
I mean, yeah, Vader was evil. But it was just Jones's voiceover. He actually got some villain screen time in this one, and you can tell he was enjoying it.

_"Look at the strength of your body. The desire in your heart. I gave you this!"_
Chills.
Lone Star Thulsa Doom ain't give him shit.
Except misery and a chance for revenge.
Jose M. Figueroa Jr. That's part of the point, his decision to have Conan be enslaved was what gave Conan the body he has, a great might and toned features, the man who bought him gave him everything else except the lessons taught by his father, including freedom when the slave owner felt that he had created a monster.
Box Tank! Valid points. Problem is, Thulsa Doom took everything away from Conan. His people, his family, even his father's sword. And Conan nearly lost his cultural identity. Please don't get me wrong. I get what you are saying, I really do.
Jose M. Figueroa Jr. I understand your points completely, and I never did say that he gave the first two to him intentionally? Who's to say he was even to know that Conan would be picked by a slave owner and made a deadly force? He may be powerful but he is not omniscient nor is he omnipotent.
Box Tank! The first two were intentional. That's why I said valid points. Thulsa Doom unintentionally gave Conan too much of a chance to plan on avenging his people, and should have killed the Cimmerian when the Stygian demigod had a chance to. Instead, Conan, later on in the movie, took the opportunity to kill Thulsa Doom. At least Conan was still alive to do it.
And eventually become the king of Aquilonia by his own hand, wearing a crown upon a troubled brow.
Thulsa Doom knew that Conan would be given to a slave trader. The Stygian demigod might have foreseen it.
Great scene! James Earl Jones is a national treasure!
Agreed
SOMEBODY earned their stuntwoman credits that day!
actually, the one who jumped was a man and its a Guinness world record for the highest free fall stunt jump in a movie
Take that feminists XDDD
jpteknoman The male freefall record in a movie is Dar Robinson in Sharky's Machine, 220 feet. Any resource that I can find online cites female stuntwoman Corrie Jansen as being the one performing the freefall here from a height of 182 feet.
Take that alt-right wing XDDD
Was actually a guy, and is still the longest freefall by a stuntperson to this day, I believe....over 140 (or 150?) feet.
As a kid, I went in to watch this film because of Arnie and Conan, only to proceed to be mesmerized just as equally by Thulsa Doom. A hero is only as powerful as his nemesis, and James Earl Jones elevated Doom and this whole picture's stakes with his magnificient acting. A truly spellbinding actor.
I remember the first time I watched this movie, having expected a generic fantasy schlockfest full of classic style Arnie moments. Lord of the Rings as an 80s Arnold movie, I suppose.
And I got this. A surprisingly thoughtful, slow movie filled with quiet moments like we see here. And I'm supremely happy about that.
Thulsa doom, played here by Mufasa, is the reason vampires exist in the Marvel Universe.
Funny enough in the original comics, Conan is by no means a fool
He later sits upon the Throne of Aquilonia and rules an entire kingdom, powerful as an ox and as clever as a fox
He's pretty dangerous
@@xxdomoxxkunxx Damn straight. Not to mention the Mako voice over granting at least +50 to all stats.
LOTR isn't "generic fantasy".....
@@TheBlackFrog79 yeah actually. Conan is closer to history than your kid story.
Thulsa Doom is so creepy and charismatic, James Earl Jones is a genius at playing truly epic villains.
Its seems to me that a lot of people want to take the Riddle of Steel more literally when it's probably meant to be more metaphorical. The film starts with a quote from Nietzsche, "That which does not kill us, makes us stronger." which is then followed by imagery of Conan's father forging a sword. This part is the key to the riddle. When a sword is forged the metal has to be exposed to extreme heat then hammered and folded over and over again in order to take shape and to work out the impurities in the metal, and finally quenched in order to temper the blade. The metaphor here is that "steel" is what a person becomes after they have gone through extreme hardships and by doing so have allowed their "impurities" and weaknesses to be hammered out and burned off in order to become a better, stronger, more resilient person. To be more precise, "steel" is a person's will, or their sense of belief and confidence in themselves. So when Conan's father says to him, "This you can trust." What he meant was that ultimately the only thing you can absolutely rely on and trust, is yourself. But only once you've overcome your own weaknesses by forging and tempering yourself in the fires of hardship. It seems as though Thulsa Doom almost understood the riddle but his understanding is tainted by his desire for power. He views it merely as an insight into how to control and dominate people. Conan, on the other hand, has no real interest in controlling anyone. He just wanted the strength and will to have his revenge.
How is that individualism vs collectivism?
Is Conan individualism and Doom collectivism?
Agreed. How Thulsa gets the girl to jump to her death while calling her "my child" is a perfect metaphor for the relationship of of the left (collectivists) and it's followers today.
::slow clapping::
Not like Nationalism hasn't killed hundreds of millions.
WWI was caused by Nationalism, WWi was a direct cause of WWII, those constitue over a hundred million. Then there's the Hundred Years War, Colonialism (a form of Nationalism), the thousands of years of general conflict across the world caused by tribalistic actions. Hundreds of millions.
What a legendary monologue. RIP to one of the greats.
Thulsa Doom is not describing strength here. The riddle of steel is about the endless pursuit of personal strength, skill, and will power. Doom mocks the riddle and reveals half truths about it to destroy it's true purpose. He understands the riddle, but does not want anyone else to do the same. He wants weak willed followers who are willing to die at his suggestion.
As Thulsa Doom states the riddle of steel is that the flesh (the hand that wields the sword) is stronger than a sword.
The will, the hand that wields the sword is what needs to be conquered. Once he learned that secret (by looking at Conan's mother before killing her) he was not a warrior anymore but a cult leader conquering human minds and will.
The riddle of steel is NOT about the endless pursuit of whatever. The sword is strong as it's the hand that holds it.
Str1000ac You're arguing semantics. Strength, skill, will power ARE the hand that wields the sword. If you can see passed semantics, we agree on this.
Doom understands the riddle, but does not want others to, so he reveals half truths to destroy it's purpose. He was not a warrior anymore but a cult leader conquering human minds and will. If you can see passed semantics, I think we agree on this too.
If, however, you believe that Thulsa Doom actually revealed the answer to the riddle of steel here, we do disagree. I don't know that's your meaning, it just sounds that way due to your second sentence. I think what he was doing in this clip was trying to pervert Conan's perception of strength. Ultimately, strength, skill, and will power allowed Conan to break his father's sword and resist Thulsa Doom's corruption.
Kitsune Kisama The Riddle of Steel seems to be similar to Varys' Riddle of Power from A Song of Ice and Fire. Power is where men believe it to be. The genius of Conan is his refusal to believe any person who tries to claim power over him.
All interesting, varied takes on the riddle of steel. Pretty cool that such a movie can spur such great discussion!
In my opinion, there is a fascinating dichotomy going on with Thulsa Doom and Conan's true father and their outlooks on what is true strength. Thulsa Doom takes on the unique role as an almost substitute "father" figure to Conan with his harshly doled lessons about life, strength, will, hate, etc.
Thulsa Doom openly taunts Conan in this scene by revealing the true answer to the riddle of steel - the strength of steel is nothing compared to the will of the one who wields it. This baffles him and flies in the face of everything his real father taught him - steel is stronger than men, women, beasts and you can always trust it. Conan finally sees this to be true in his final battle with Rexor, who is ultimately killed when the stolen Cimmerian sword, made by Conan's father, fails him and shatters in two.
Finally, in the penultimate scene of the film, Conan confronts Thulsa Doom and symbolically kills this father-figure with his real father's broken sword. The same father-figure who forged Conan's will to live and ultimately helped him become a man, really, albeit through pain, anguish and suffering. This directly correlates to the opening titles quote from Nietzsche. He both matures and unburdens not only himself but the Followers of Doom. By showing them Thulsa is only a man, he (inadvertently?) helps them find the will to extinguish their torches and return to their lives. Conan is now the master of the his own destiny; he will no longer let any man hold dominion over him and is set on the path to one day be king. Truly a wonderfully written character evolution imho. Just my take.
+PJ Worth Yeah this movie is definitely next-level. One of those rare gems that appears schlocky and ridiculous on the surface but actually contains a surprising amount of depth. They don't make action movies like they used to, I say.
My favorite role James Earl Jones ever done, RIP James
The whole movie is epic. Always loved the soundtrack.
I’ve actually used this monologue for auditions years ago and got the parts. Probably, because the few directors were Arnold or James Earl Jones fans and few recited this.
To this day, when I’m looking or processing something I audibly say, “Seek” like when Thulsa Doom straightened the snake as an arrow to kill one of the thieves 🏹
"That is strenght, boy, that IS POWAH!"

A time when he used to be referred to as Black Vadar... although he was good at the dark arts.
AT Games ....what??? Just stop. Trying to be racist and funny at the same time are not ur strengths my dude.
I was expecting him to look at Arnie and say: *"The Flesh is strong with this one."*
The dialogue in this is so poetic, the direction so epic. This film really was ahead of its time when you look at the hockey B-Movie craps that surrounded it.
Agree 100%
Yea totally right
This movie is cheesy in so many ways but Thulsa Doom is an amazing villain.
Don't mistake my comment for dislike of the movie, this is my favorite fantasy movie of all time.

Very underrated movie, one of my all time favourites.
Who ever underrated Conan The Barbarian? That's the most iconic fantasy movie of the 80's..
Most people have never heard of it. You can't rate a movie you've never heard of.
I think most people remember Mad MAx, Blade Runner, Aliens, Star Wars etc...
I haven't seen it, but this scene made me want to. I didn't know there was even the tiniest bit of subtlety to this movie. It's definitely gone up in my estimation without me having seen much at all.
underrated / it was masterpiece
Whats underrated on it?Its conclusively one of the most famous Arnold films and roles.Actually 2nd most famous one right after Terminator.And that ..."Most people have never heard of it"...what "most people"?Based on what representative sample?Perhaps you simply live next to people who didnt seen much.

HAD?? You think the era of brainwashed minds and witless followers is behind us? What history has shown us time and again is that you can worm into the brains of even the smartest people. Either through fear, hatred, lust or greed. All that's needed is for the Despot to ease your conscious mind, to validate and justify whatever it is so that it does not appear evil or grotesque.
RIP James. The movie that really made me notice him. An incredible actor.
he's basically saying guns don't kill people, people do. and as a person who uses people, he uses them as guns. inanimate objects. Tools.

James Earl Jones is one of the most powerful actors there has ever been.
R.I.P. to the Legend himself... We love you James. Earl Jones. Always.
I've always loved this steel vs flesh thing going on.
To me the whole "steel is the only thing you can trust" argument from Corin speaks that strength is about self-determination and freedom. Steel is a tool that you can make you self-dependent and truly free, and that freedom from the wills of others is true strength.
While Thulsa argues that if you master flesh, and it's desires and whims, then you can bend others to serve you and gain freedom by enslaving the wills of others. By mastering the mind your strength goes beyond the material.
May the legend himself, James Earl Jones Rest in peace

It's kinda interesting how Doom refers to both the physical body and the will/spirit driving as the "Flesh," by including a reference to the desire in Conan's heart.And indeed Conan's defeat of Doom's more numerous and better-armed army proved Doom right, that the flesh was indeed stronger than steel.

I love Conan the Barbarian :). James Earl Jones did a great job playing the villain Tulsa. He has a god like voice when he speaks :). That’s how i imagine God sounds like .
"contemplate this on the tree of woe" sounds so metaphorical and then you realize that it is an actual tree that he's being crucified on
It's a testament to James Earl Jones that in movie filled with great action, music, and fantasy, his monologue is perhaps the most memorable scene. Rest in power.
This scene was inspired by a real life event. A Crusader lord was visiting an arab cult in the desert sometime in teh 1100's, and he reported the exact same devotion followers had, and as the head of the cult was walking with the lord, he had one of his followers on the wall jump to their deaths. It was said that the cult drugged potential new members for days while transporting them to a castle they had built in a remote location. This castle was stocked with food, women and all of lifes top luxurious pleasures. When the new recruit awoke, they were treated as a God and told it was the paradise of the afterlife. Then at some point a few days later they were re-drugged and brought back to the temple. When they awoke they were completely convinced they had been to the paradise that was promised and become unwavering cultists from that point forward.
Wolffe Ahh I didn’t know that this movie scene was inspired by the stories about the Hashashin. But please keep in mind that these we’re stories intended to showcase how evil this religion was and were only told by others. As far as I know they are only considered propaganda and hearsay based on what we know about them.

Was that King Richard the Lionheart who visited Al Mualim or another Crusader Lord?
