2026-11-06 14:00 Dear Munchies, Thank you for reacting to 'Conan the Barbarian'. It's always fun seeing you excited to watch a movie. The character Conan the Barbarian was created by the American pulp writer Robert E. Howard and the first Conan story was published in a magazine in1932.
2026-11-06 03:43 Dear Munchies, Thank you for reacting to 'Conan the Barbarian'. It's always fun seeing you excited to watch a movie. The character Conan the Barbarian was created by the American pulp writer Robert E. Howard and the first Conan story was published in a magazine in 1932. Howard wrote over 20 Conan stories over his lifetime, and other writers have added additional stories over time. The character Conan has since been adapted to comics, movies, television, and video games. The most popular film adaptation is the one you've just watched. Howard helped create the sword and sorcery genre with his stories. Howard's mother suffered from tuberculosis and when her condition worsened she fell into a coma. Howard asked her nurse if she would regain consciousness. When the nurse said that she wouldn't, Howard went to his car and shot himself in the head. He was 30 years old and his mother died the next day. Sorry to give you such sad information. Howard lived in a small town in Texas and his home has been preserved as a museum. On a happier note, I wish to recommend the documentary 'Pumping Iron' (1977). Its a documentary about Arnold Schwarzenegger's body building competition days, before he became an actor in feature films. I know reaction channel don't watch documentaries, but Schwarzenegger is every bit as entertaining in this film just as he is in his other movies. Also in 'Pumping Iron' is his body building colleague, Lou Ferrigno. Ferrigno also entered acting and is known for portraying the Incredible Hulk on American television.

This is awesome! I'm so excited for this reaction. Chi, Hella and Katie, thank you very much, beautiful girls!

The music is so timeless. I remember when Nintendo used it to announce a new Zelda game(I think Twilight Princess but I could be wrong) lmao.

Christopher Young

Hi Munchies, there is sequel to this movie called "Conan the Destroyer", plus there was supposed to be a third follow-up movie, but unfortnately it never got made due to issues appointing a Diector for the movie, plus difficulties with Arnold Schwarzenegger scheduled availability for making the third movie.

Pinitchio

This is a very enjoyable film. It was also Arnold's first hit film. Two years later, The Terminator would turn Arnold into an action superstar. Marvel Comic's published a Conan the Barbarian comic book from 1970-1993 (and again from 2019-2022). I've read some. The success of this film sparked a major wave of "copycat" sword-and-sorcery films throughout the 80's. I've seen some of them. It's a GOOD THING you gals won't. 😁

My favorite Arnold movie is Commando. You girls should consider watching it.

Conan the Barbarian stories published in magazines in the 1930's. I read them as graphic stories in the 70's

The bad guy is the voice of Darth Vader in the original Star Wars movies.

24:09 - "Conan: The Gentleman Barbarian" Yeah, Arnold does show off his muscles all the time, but he worked hard to get that build. Arnold won Mr. Universe 4 times, and Mr. Olympia 7 times (and 6 of those wins were consecutive). He was so popular for body building that he got cast in his first role in a movie called "Hercules in New York" (1970). There was a problem though. Arnold's English skills were still pretty basic and his native Austrian accent was very strong. It was so difficult to understand him, the studio had someone else speak Arnold's lines and then dub them in the movie so the audience could understand him.

Thanks for the recommendation! 😊❤️ We’ll definitely check it out soon!

Richard Method

If you can, please add to your list of shows to watch - The Blacklist. Thanks!

Kris Homeniuk

Arnold had to slim down, loose muscle, for this movie so he could do the sword stunts. He said in a commentary interview that he couldn't believe they gave him credits over James Earl Jones.

Milvo

More Arnie and Stallone please! I suggest "Commando" and "Rambo 2".

chris brown

Yes. I'm looking forward to this. Please react to Commando (1985) and The Running Man (1987) two great Arnold Schwarzenegger movies

Blackwargreymon00

I think the Running man reaction is coming, in the hocus pocus reaction they mentioned having seen it

Now the Munchies also know what is best in life!😅 I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve watched this movie. Back when I was a teenager in my Arnold Schwarzenegger phase, Conan, Terminator 1 & 2, Predator, and Commando were practically on repeat. Occasionally interrupted by other Schwarzenegger films like True Lies, Last Action Hero, or Red Heat. 😅 Conan the Barbarian was Arnold Schwarzenegger’s big Hollywood breakthrough. He doesn’t have much dialogue in this film, and honestly, it’s a bit strange for me to hear him speak in English. Germany has a pretty strong dubbing culture, and Arnold has a fantastic German voice actor. Looking back, the film has impressive production values; the costumes and weapons look great, and the story itself is really solid. Not to mention the soundtrack is absolutely awesome; the main theme, in particular, is a little masterpiece for me. Conan is based on a Marvel comic book series from the 70s. Though that wasn’t the character’s true origin. He was actually created by Robert E. Howard in a series of short stories back in 1932. Chi asks the important question: why does Conan spend years turning that wheel. It doesn’t really look like a mill to me. I suspect the scene exists solely to explain how Conan became such a powerful man, plus, it’s just a cool scene. I doubt anyone thought about it much beyond that.😅 Another fantasy film I’d like to recommend is The 13th Warrior. An often underrated movie. I think the story shares a few similarities with Conan. If you want to see more of Arnold Schwarzenegger, there’s the sequel, Conan the Destroyer (1984), and he also played a similar character, Lord Kalidor, in the film Red Sonja (1985). That was a great reaction, ladies, as always!💜

Hello Munchies !! YESS!!!! youpiii!!!!! my favourite movie of Arnold schwarzeneger! this one will always have a special place I konw the "conan" manga too. it's know a little in Europe too. Munchies!! Welcome in the Hyperborean world!!! Sharpen your blades !! may it be knife or sword! you enter a world where man have muscles the size of a normal torso, fight half naked with huge axes and swords! (honestly look what conan look like in comics, even Arnold is not that muculous!!!) where the woman are either way "princess to save", witches or warrior in armor that everyone forget it's supposed to be more than a bikini in iron!!! (the movie is more reasonnable for the armour . from a long shot!) A world where the gods don't care bout you and magic bring more trouble than they solves and huge monsters are everywhere to kill you! for short, welcome in "dark fantasy" were hope is useless most of the times. act if you want to survive. Based on a novel (I saw already explained it), those books are the basic off modern "sword and sorcery". with Tolkien's LOTR, this universe created all the univers of fantasy we know today. from "Dungeons and dragons" to "Warhammer" all are inspired in a way or another by Conan !!! the tropes of the Barbarian looking like a mountian of muscles with big weapons in modern fantasy come from here. this is meant to be our world in an very old mythological settings. but when you see a map...this is clearly not our world, but inspired (that's why we asian and middleeast like people in it). this movie is one of the most famous of Schwarzeneger! he was arrived very recently from Austria. that's why he don't talk much. his english wans't good enough. but honestly, it help the movie so much. more about this at the end. let's go for the movie! Did you know James Earl Jones voiced Darth Vader?😉 for the "whell of sufering" (yes tha'ts how this thing he turned as a child is called), it's made to break the mind of the future slaves while develloping their strenght. that's all. btw, the idea of conan getting his revenge and making his own choice in the book is a symbol of "breaking the cycles" that the wheel created. they gave the slave woman to conan because she was like a "cattle" to breed...it's horrible to say, but If you want to have a slave just as strong as he's beautifull....that's a way to do it...we do the same with our pet and herding animals. they just put it on humans... a standart is a piece to hold your emblem. like a flag. here this is the spear with thulsa doom's snakes signs "you hit the lama" the what? it's a camel. 😅 "temples like this usually have a snakes"....euh...😅in this case...kinda. good guess! "they were puples before!" how did I never see that before? thanks! I laugh when Chi and Hella were shocked by the princess having snakes on her arm while Katie was "Yeah!!!OMG that's so great !!!" and "have it to Chi!" 😅🤣 the birds waiting for Conan to die are Vultures. not hawks. "If they succeed, you'll follow!" I love this quote! when Conan recover...the moment all woman are like "WOW!!! so muscular!!" while the man are looking at themselves and cries...But I love the music here. a very good one when you need one to "revigorate". My favourites scenes: Conan sneaking in and destroying the "party". all is perfect, the ambiance, the music... first we have the red place, hell itself, then the "paradise" their extremely corrupt vision of paradise, and conan is coming to destroy those atrocities! the barabrians is giving honour to his name! but for a good cause for once!! Just the music....I can't stop talking about it. just hearing the music, the epicness is at his max level!!! I remember, in their own reaction, Tiên called the "snake-arrow" the "best weapons agaisnt the munchies" 🤣🤣 I'm letting you deal that between you. 😉😅 Speaking of the angels, Yuri had an interresting theory that I never though before but make sense: when they burned her for the funerals, we see the collar shine a little red sparkle. she theorize that her souls hide in it, so she could protect him later for the battle(as she promised). we have no proof but it's an interresting theory that I think make sense. "the god will watch your battle", "will they help?" "no!" "then tell them to stay out of the way!!" I love this quote! so fun! and so fitting for a world like that. his prayer after is the most badass prayer I ever heard too! but for a god of war and slaughter, it fit! She didn't come back from hell. she come back from Valhalla (to be nerdy!😅) for the conclusion for the crucifiction, it's a common things in Conan's world. they're moslty inspired byt the roman's and antic way to do it. not sure it has a direct link to christianity. I never heard of it. I LOVE the music in this movie !!!! may it be the "conan's theme" (as I call it) when they attack the village, crush the org* or even the "recovery" scene (after Conan's ressurection when he show his muscles and learn to re-use his sword). the music only is a masterpiece by itself. But for me this movie is the enbodiement of "show, don't tell". you resumed it well! they don't speak that much. (Arnold because he was not that fluent in english ok), but it's a strenght of it. he's meant to be a barbarian, a man of action. when you think "barbarian", we never think of long speech. so the visuals and music must do the job instead. and they do it very well !!! you can recognize this movie easily! it has a visuals identity so pronounced. the main theme of conan (not only the movie) is freedom and survival of the one who act (maybe also survival of the fittest..). where everyone follows the "rules" , leader with ambition (here a cult), where people follow "destiny" or divinity, conan made his own choice and forced it by his sword if he need. Vengeance may drive him here, but in other media and the ending, he's like "do as you wish". that's why he don't speak after killing Thulsa Doom. for the ending, about him becoming king, they made a second movie (who "failed"), a "spinoff" called "red sonja" where he appear and after arnold never played Conan again. they made a TV show to end the story, but it's mostly saw as "bad", very bad. they tried to made another movie very recently that I didn't saw but apparently it failed too. what a great adventure with you. despise how difficult it may have been sometimes for you... sorry for that. thanks a lot Munchies!! have a wonderfull day!

Gaëtarrow

the wheel is made to break his mind (becoming docile as slave) and making him stronger. but in the book, it also had a lot of symbolism. the mani idea being : Conan break the cycles, surpass his "human nature" by making his own choice instead of following the society he lives in. for short... I read a little about it, a lot of philosophy...you better make your own research to avoid me saying mistakes

chris brown

Amazing reaction as always. Chi, Hella and Katie now know the riddle of steel and what is best in life

King Bob

"The Riddle of Steel" So what is the actual answer? I think the most interesting interpretation is that neither steel nor flesh is the true source of strength. It's the will of the person wielding the steel. Conan ultimately kills Thulsa Doom using his father's broken sword. The very object that was supposed to be invincible proves imperfect, yet it remains deadly in Conan's hands. The film deliberately never gives us a definitive verbal answer. It leaves us to work it out ourselves. And that's what makes the philosophy so interesting: strength isn't necessarily in the weapon, the body or even the individual. It's in the strength of will that directs them....

The Wigs and "hair" in this movie are insane lol! I cannot 🪮🪄
