They should absolutely do another movie with Arnold as Conan the King. His character and these tales deserve an ending that would honor the creator (Robert E. Howard) and please the fans and followers.
I agree! At his age now, a movie of 'Conan : King of Aquilonia' would be magnificent with the right screenplay, casting and director. Let us hope that this becomes a reality before it is too late.
I love how they all seek permission by Conan first!! And i love how Zulu was the first named, and immediatly Ranked to Captain of the Guard!! This is how you make amazing characters, with epic events happening to them, witouth being forced, you saw Gracie J. fight, you saw her protect, you know shes more then qualified!!! i love this fucking movie!!!
Grace J. was pretty alright in this film. Although somewhat modest compared to Gerry Lopez & Sandahl Bergman in Barbarian (they left big shoes to fill after all), Grace J. has perhaps the best new character in this sequel aside Arnie & Mako's original characters(from Barbarian, perhaps not quite Robert Howard's)!
Hmm imagine that, you can make a strong female char without destroying a movie, you do not have to make the males weak, who woulda guessed.....next up in Hollywood, Brie Larson deadlifts 2000kg and Thor farts and falls down, Plot twist a trans comes along and lifts 5000 kg but that is ok, CAPTAIN TRANS MARVEL coming to theatres to lose 500 million near you!!!!!
@@negativezero3107 Dude why you exaggerate, it's nothing like that. Thor doesn't fart and fall down in the latest movie. He becomes impotent to lift his own hammer, but Natalie Portman shows up to lift the hammer for him and become the new Thor who is a lady. Ms. Marvel isn't trans, shes a cool teenage Muslim named Kamala. America Chaves from the newest Dr. Strange movie comes from a utopian world where men don't exist. She was born out of the pure manifestation of love from her two expert scientist lesbian moms. She attended Sotomayor University before heading out to save all the worlds with her "Superman but better" powers. I hope she teams up with the new Iron Man who is now a black lady named Riri Williams. The new Marvel cycle is gonna be lit!
That pause before he turns and walks out of the room is so well done. That is the greatness of these old films. The movements were so expressive but understated.
In this scene you saw that Jenna grew up. She'd been childish before, but when Conan didn't stay she didn't whine and beg, she let him go in a dignified manner. One of the best images in the movie.
When Conan is the last one to be called upon, The queen says nothing. She wouldn't dare beckon him forward because she knows she does not command him, nor would Conan take any commands from any person. He is a king. Her silence is the only way she knows to beckon him forth.
badass conan won't be a simp. but a man of his own making. loved it. see the look in her eyes when she realized she can't have him coz she so desires. that ending was awesome.

This movie and the one before it were among those that got me into fantasy literature. And the Conan saga is still one of my favourite piece of literature of all times.

Something that I always enjoyed about fantasy movies from this era was that dull shiney look to everything. It makes it look like a mythical tale come to life. The way her clothes gleam is like something from the 50's. I think the only modern movie to look like this was Clash of the Titans.
I love how all the members of Conan's party find their own destinies. And Conan is wise enough to let them find them. But Conan will continue to adventure and find new allies. And if he has need of these old friends, I'm sure he can still call upon them. I know that he must've called upon Akiro again, because he is still his chronicler. Maybe something happened to Queen Jehnna and Shadizar.
@@edwardgaines6561 Everybody's paths and needs are different in life. Sometimes you and your friends must part in different directions in life even when nothing wrong has happened.
And yet, he understands one desire to pursue their own destiny, his blessings was important because of their loyalty to him. Conan is the embodiment of loyalty
Let's be honest. These types of films peaked in the '80s and maybe the early '90s. If they had continued making them, they would have just gotten progressively worse. Even this film, as entertaining as it was, was a step down from the first Conan.
Conan the Barbarian is a masterpiece. Conan the Destroyer is goofy fun but definitely a step down in quality from the original, much like Temple of Doom was for Indiana Jones. I do wish they had made Conan the Conqueror to round out a trilogy much like the original Indiana Jones films, and ended the series on a high note where Conan does become king and rules over his own land.
I saw this scene when I was just a kid. And I didn’t understand it. . Now. Years later, after having had many high adventures in many far away lands. After collecting a ragtag bunch of miscreant friends and watching them leave for new opportunities. And after accidentally breaking the hearts of people who legitimately cared for me, because I couldn’t stop loving someone I had lost. After all that , I watch this scene, and it is devastating. ….but that, is another story.
That's actually not what this scene is about. The whole persona of Conan from the 1st movie was that he is going to be a king "by his own hands," and not one that was handed to him. The left can learn a few things or 2 from this.
And notice how she doesn't call Conan up to her like she did the others ie potential servants, but instead waits for him to decide when to approach her. Subtle details very well done.
Each of them owed him their life and freedom, and honoured that with their allegiance, queen or no queen. One of the best scenes in this rather dismal movie lol.
Jehnna: "Rule Shadizar with me" Conan: (My time has come) Malak: "Conan, she has fifteen years old" Conan: "I'LL WILL HAVE MY OWN KINGDOM, MY OWN QUEEN"
LIke it would matter in an iron age world. From ancient Egypt to Rome to medieval Europe, marriage (consumated marriage, not betrothals) was generally legal and farily common for girls as young as 12 and boys as young as 14.
Jehnna: "Rule Shadizar with me" Conan: "I'LL WILL HAVE MY OWN KINGDOM, MY OWN QUEEN" Malak: "Conan, she has fifteen years old" Conan: (My Time Has Come!!)
With feminazi controlling Hollywood he would prob be humiliated and belittled the whole filme by a "strong, independent woman". Let the saga stays how it is. See what they have done to Luke Skywalker and the Terminator already.
It's not a masterpiece, but I really like this movie. The music and the scenery is terrific. The script and execution is what it is, but it still works for me. No matter how hard they try, they simply can't make a movie like this these days. The technology and everything has changed too much. Damn I really miss the 80s. And Conan the Destroyer came out the same year I was born.
I concur. Perhaps it is not as profound and epic as its famed predecessor(which I'm also a huge fan of), but it's not bad in its own right and also has its own special place in my heart!
you have to admit, this ending tells 2 great phrases of wisdom: 1. that you are your own person, you make your own decisions, and you do not let people command you to do otherwise 2. that you create your own fate, your own destiny, and you hold the cards to your own future. because it is you that creates your own future, not a higher power, a king, a queen. the queen here understands conan as his own man, she respects him for him, and as shows, even loves him. she understands that he does not love him back, and respects his decision and choice to create his own kingdom and create his own destiny. she gives him a goodbye kiss, knowing shes only gonna see him on his throne, sometime in the future. it is also something that you don't see with leaders today, a respect for them. every leader today wants to control something, power is often used without wisdom and without strength.
This is fantasy. Those leaders are pure fantasy like the vertuous and pious knights of old that weren't vertuous and pious but mostly murderers and rapists. Civilization is all about power, domineering lands and people. That's the sedentarian way. A bit of anthropology and history should lead you to this understanding of our recent history (the last 6000-8000 years).
on the disabled part, yes you do. babies are creation. and you don't have to be smart or charismatic to create. a lot of writers and artists are dumber than a bag of weed laced with cocaine. honestly tho, you can't be this single minded bro.
You know it took 30 some odd years to finish up with TOPGUN... I think it's high time that they finally finish out the Conan story. Arnold is old enough now to play the part of an aging king wearing his crown upon a troubled brow.
yea hopefully its gets made but arnold has said that the owner of the rights is a young guy and couldnt care less about king conan... instead they are doing some streaming series remake bs if even that gets made
And she still is. Lol. This one wasn’t as good as the first one. If it didn’t have Arnold in it, it would have failed miserably. Although Olivia D’abo can be my queen any time.
I would rather at this point they leave it alone. Hollywood has already ruined sooo much, they will just add bullshit and politics to it. Let this legacy be as it is, a Legend worth Remembering.
They would just end up killing Conan off and having his daughter . . . Yes, his daughter . . . Continue the family name. And it would be woke, stupid, and lame as fuck.
1:52 It's equally sad when Akiro parted ways with Conan as it was when Jehna farewelled Conan- remember that Akiro is the only prominent character and perhaps 2nd sidekick that appeared in both Conan films. And of course he's Conan's chronicler, though he would've likely documented Conan's other adventures after the events of this film, but alas, it'll remain offscreen as Mako has since passed on. RIP to a great actor. As for Jehna, although I think Conan made the wisest choice to honor the memory of Valeria(which suited him a lot better IMO) while looking for his own kingdom and queen, his parting with Jehna is still rather bittersweet.
0:42 Zula looks back at Conan, not as a friendly gesture, but because she already pledged her life to him. She seeking permission and to also have her debt cleared.
In a way a bit of a bittersweet depressing ending, even the music feels somber. He saved this kingdom and the princess, but he leaves alone. Despite giving his blessings to his companions to stay with the new Queen, he left alone.
It is not as good as the first but it has some really cool moments. You can find Conan: The Complete Quest on DVD as a two-disc combo, which contains both films, for real cheap on Amazon or Walmart's website. It is certainly worth picking up.
@@lerouxmartin3478 oh yeah loved it as a kid. But I also loved Power Rangers as a kid. Was more perplexed by barbarian at that age. Then I grew up and realised one was power rangers in the Iron age and the other was a masterpiece
I think the animated Conan The Adventurer series was the closest we got to sequels for these epic Conan flicks. The animated series was excellent with Rathamon being the spiritual successor to Thulsa Doom.
For those who may not have noticed, the spear seen leaning against Conan’s throne near the end sports a blade and cross-guard identical to the sword used by Subotai. The sword used by Conan’s father in the first movie can also be seen leaning against the throne, adjacent to the spear. This sword is not seen there in the first movie’s ending, though. Now, seeing his father’s sword there obviously means Conan reforged it. But the choice to use Subotai’s sword for a spear strikes me as odd. This could imply a bunch of different things to me, but I imagine this might mean Subotai died before Conan became king.
Subotai's sword is not used here. The blade is different. And cross-guard is similar. But know this that this stuff was designed by the same people for those movies. And it is the same spear that was used in the first film. This film is not a continuation of the story from previous one. They just tried to make them as separate adventures.
Yea but he wanted to EARN his kingdom rather than given to him because he tapped a woman. I admired that a great deal. He took the real man way toward becoming a king.
Yeah, so she goes back to 'the fool' and orders him to pick up where he left off on the subject of how a man and a woman 'join' and orders his lucky stupid ass to show her how a man and a woman 'join' so there you have it-'join' lol
Given the current political state of films nowadays, I'm fine with never getting a movie showing how Conan becomes king. As long as I know he becomes king, I'm fine with the mystery of how he did it.
Conan the Conqueror is a book authored by Howard himself. It tells the tale of how after he has become king he flees from a betrayal/coup and regains his throne. Its about as epic as it gets hope they do one and stick to original material this time.
@@MALICEM12 The feminism was done perfectly in this film. That's the thing with everything. You go too much either way and it becomes ruined. They are going way overboard these days.

honestly tho, you can't be this single minded bro.
Power does not corrupt, it reveals.
Those are muscles made to stand still, sit, and strike a pose.
It’s tight. The body’s tight.
Vogue!
The music at the end is the same music that played in Conan the barbarian at Valeria's Funeral Pyre Scene. Conan can never forget Valeria
Valeria is a beautiful warrior Queen who died by the snake king's poison snake.
WE WANT CONAN THE CONQUEROR DAMN IT!
You know it took 30 some odd years to finish up with TOPGUN...
I think it's high time that they finally finish out the Conan story. Arnold is old enough now to play the part of an aging king wearing his crown upon a troubled brow.
yea hopefully its gets made but arnold has said that the owner of the rights is a young guy and couldnt care less about king conan... instead they are doing some streaming series remake bs if even that gets made
With the exception of one time in my life...I have always led my life like this... don't join a kingdom...create your own. It's the best decision.
How do you have a kingdom if nobody joins Since you told them not to? Kingdom of one 🤣😂
@@ftniceberg874 "I rule this basement alone! My neckbeard bows before nobody!"
"Create your own kingdom?"
So then don't date single mothers then? 😆
"I will have my own kingdom, my own queen... but.. before I leave.. use that with which you speak to quench the fire in my loins"
I was born the year this was premiered. Years later as a preteen, I thought 14-15 yr old Olivia d’Abo was the best part of this movie
And she still is. Lol. This one wasn’t as good as the first one. If it didn’t have Arnold in it, it would have failed miserably. Although Olivia D’abo can be my queen any time.
Please God...let the movie king Conan be filmed before Arnold gets too old...he's the one and only man on earth too play the part of King Conan...
He is too old
I would rather at this point they leave it alone. Hollywood has already ruined sooo much, they will just add bullshit and politics to it. Let this legacy be as it is, a Legend worth Remembering.
We are hard at work cream lounge
They would just end up killing Conan off and having his daughter . . . Yes, his daughter . . . Continue the family name. And it would be woke, stupid, and lame as fuck.
No such thing as too old . Conan the wheelchair king!
Queen: "Would you like to see my boobs?"
*entire court looks at Conan*
Conan: slow nod
😹🤟
I like this version...
Lmao
😂😂🤣👍
She’s 14 here
Hes at that age now arnie that he could defo play old Conan leading into to him becoming King and end the story.
I don’t know. He seems to have more of a jolly personality now and he isn’t able to keep it out of his acting.
Love how his band all look back to get Conans approval.
That's just how much crazy respect they had for him. Almost like a father seeing off his children to college, and the real world.
He saved all of their lives. They owe him that.
The way Princess loves Conan is 😢 life filling😍
Also Conan at the throne looks like Kratos at the end of GoW1 (he should have played as He-Man)
'Zula, I need a captain of the guards. I see no reason why a woman wouldn't do as well as a man.'
Zula: _looks at man for approval_
LOL! 😆
epic movie one of his best movie ever .... Arnold Schwarzenegger a living Legend
Conan; the Mightiest Warrior ever.
I love the costuming in this scene.
Always forget how much of an absolute BEAST he is in this movie.
1:52 It's equally sad when Akiro parted ways with Conan as it was when Jehna farewelled Conan- remember that Akiro is the only prominent character and perhaps 2nd sidekick that appeared in both Conan films. And of course he's Conan's chronicler, though he would've likely documented Conan's other adventures after the events of this film, but alas, it'll remain offscreen as Mako has since passed on. RIP to a great actor.
As for Jehna, although I think Conan made the wisest choice to honor the memory of Valeria(which suited him a lot better IMO) while looking for his own kingdom and queen, his parting with Jehna is still rather bittersweet.
Her actress is so beautiful around that time wasn't she?
Taking all of conans allies and conan is just like ''yeah go head" *knod*
Conan is a lone wolf, always has been.
Part of Conan's character is that everyone has their own fate. He doesn't own them, nor does the queen own him!
king Conan asap
Conan the heart breaker
That movie did so much for me when I was a child. It had haunts my nightmares, it has created my dreams.
You can't blame Conan for trying to seek his own kingdom and queen. He didn't believe in handouts.
Still waiting for his kingdom and his queen
@zai300300 Zenobia of Aquilonia.
I will have my own kingdom, and my own queen.
If I said this to my GF, she will burst into laughing ..
i'm STILL waiting for that story
Conan the King should be the last film Arnold ever does. Make it with all he's got. Life imitates Art.
I had such a crush on Olivia d'Abo when I was young.
met Olivia d'Abo at a star trek convention in 2011 lovely person Arnold was funny on set and she was only 14 when she did this movie
Doug Williams she was 15... born Jan 1969 and this movie was out in June of 1984
She was 14 when the movie was shot and 15 when the movie came out
14???
Beautiful queen
That armor and THAT HALBRED at the end tho..!
This Conan movie was good, just more D&D in style.
0:42 Zula looks back at Conan, not as a friendly gesture, but because she already pledged her life to him. She seeking permission and to also have her debt cleared.
In a way a bit of a bittersweet depressing ending, even the music feels somber. He saved this kingdom and the princess, but he leaves alone. Despite giving his blessings to his companions to stay with the new Queen, he left alone.
One of the best red pill moments here....he puts himself and his purpose first...
Red Pill my ass... He should have banged her!!!

Conan was a great action movie from the 80s
I have watched Conan the barbarian so many times but never knew that there was a sequel
Oh my God.
It's nowhere near as good don't worry you're not missing much. This is Conan for kids
It is not as good as the first but it has some really cool moments. You can find Conan: The Complete Quest on DVD as a two-disc combo, which contains both films, for real cheap on Amazon or Walmart's website. It is certainly worth picking up.
@@guileniam Yeah but if you were a kid at the time, it was great !
@@lerouxmartin3478 oh yeah loved it as a kid. But I also loved Power Rangers as a kid. Was more perplexed by barbarian at that age.
Then I grew up and realised one was power rangers in the Iron age and the other was a masterpiece
I think the animated Conan The Adventurer series was the closest we got to sequels for these epic Conan flicks. The animated series was excellent with Rathamon being the spiritual successor to Thulsa Doom.
Its dope how they all look to conan for approval first. Jenna is the queen, but Conan is their leader
They all owed their lives to Conan, and had great respect to for them. Looking for his blessing would be like putting in your 2-week notice!
Zula has left the party.
Malak has left the party.
Akiro has left the party.
Your quest log has been updated.
Arnie did get his own kingdom, he named it Califloweronioa
🤣
Hyst..
Ya I remember he was the gummy bear of Candycornia.
yes where the taxes are high. got to pay for dem furs.
It always breaks my heart when Jenna cries as conan walks away from her 💔 😢
Connan is a true king 👑
For those who may not have noticed, the spear seen leaning against Conan’s throne near the end sports a blade and cross-guard identical to the sword used by Subotai. The sword used by Conan’s father in the first movie can also be seen leaning against the throne, adjacent to the spear. This sword is not seen there in the first movie’s ending, though.
Now, seeing his father’s sword there obviously means Conan reforged it. But the choice to use Subotai’s sword for a spear strikes me as odd. This could imply a bunch of different things to me, but I imagine this might mean Subotai died before Conan became king.
Never paid attention to this, thank you!
Subotai's sword is not used here. The blade is different. And cross-guard is similar. But know this that this stuff was designed by the same people for those movies. And it is the same spear that was used in the first film. This film is not a continuation of the story from previous one. They just tried to make them as separate adventures.
Had such a crush on her when I was a kid. Why can't they make a descent Conan movie again, Crom why?!?
Choro todas as vezes que vejo essa cena, ele deveria ficar com ela
just sayin... he was a fool for turning that down. she loved him for him, not title or birthright... wouldve been so great to see a sequel to this
Agree should have been a 3rd one
Somebody noticed that Conan take the left path..he turn to the left meaning he choose the hardest way...
The road less travelled
How can he pass up that beautiful girl? Conan!
Cause Conan isn’t a pedophile lol
You missed the point of Conan's character arc.
Saddest part of the whole movie, she was wonderful
Wait, you mean conan could have tapped that and became king?!
Yea but he wanted to EARN his kingdom rather than given to him because he tapped a woman. I admired that a great deal. He took the real man way toward becoming a king.
ravenandthecrow I’d say he earned it with what he went through in this film lol
He was tapping all the time. My guy wants a bigass superkingdom and a royal wife with a Latina maid not a 15 year old sweet 16 wannabe
He pumps women all the time
Yeah, so she goes back to 'the fool' and orders him to pick up where he left off on the subject of how a man and a woman 'join' and orders his lucky stupid ass to show her how a man and a woman 'join' so there you have it-'join' lol
Had such a crush on Olivia d'Abo when I was younger.
Not even one look back - fuckin true G
He ain’t no Simp. Stays true to himself no matter the consequences.
I would still go see old ass Arnold play Conan for 3rd movie
Highly recommended movie
A tale recounted by the Master of Masters, the Deliverer of Darkness, the Shogun of Sorrow, Aku
Still waiting for the movie where Conan gets his kingdom and queen.
@@ShadeMoon42 guess no woman will eve compare to a man’s first love.
True that my friend. True that.
Given the current political state of films nowadays, I'm fine with never getting a movie showing how Conan becomes king.
As long as I know he becomes king, I'm fine with the mystery of how he did it.
Finally a comment with reality in it! Ain't nobody asking to pay to watch Conan screaming "f@ck Trump and p3d0philia is a gender" for two hours!
True, even in this one Feminism was rearing it's head. Any newer wouldn't do it justice.
Conan the Conqueror is a book authored by Howard himself. It tells the tale of how after he has become king he flees from a betrayal/coup and regains his throne. Its about as epic as it gets hope they do one and stick to original material this time.
@@MALICEM12 The feminism was done perfectly in this film. That's the thing with everything. You go too much either way and it becomes ruined. They are going way overboard these days.
A great movie, Arnold best shape ever!
