You've never seen it? Really? Wow, I thought everyone had seen it. Classic sword and sorcery movie.Is it? I never seen the film, but I knew this scene is from it.
(and the fact that swords are forged, not cast),
That would make a pretty awesome movie, I would love to watch thatI could cut my way thru the men in that movie with a dagger and collect all the girls for myself in about 1/2 an jour
I think I would like to see that.Having played with real swords not only would those overly heavy unbalanced swords get you killed absolutely NONE of the actors have a clue as to how to properly handle a sword.

Well...yeah. Obviously. Movies don't do good sword work. But, it is an entertaining story. I can't judge a movie based on the combat, because they are all wrong...always. I would hate every movie I watch if I did that. So, just like here, and the other fantasies I have, I prefer to suspend disbelief enough to enjoy what I'm watching.Having played with real swords not only would those overly heavy unbalanced swords get you killed absolutely NONE of the actors have a clue as to how to properly handle a sword.

Heh. I actually have a guy wanting to help me do an intro to spear and shield video. I joined his Thibault study group, and he's getting interested in spears, and finding new recruits to come play with us. We'll see how it goes.
And speaking of sword and spear work, since you are into HEMA, if you decide to come down to the SDF Tournament of Defense event in November, I should have my booth set up. Maybe I'll make you something nice.
Looking up Conan the Barbarian, I see that it is from that.

Looking up Conan, I also found the following. But it looks newer, so I think it is from another piece of Conan media other than the Arnold Schwarzenegger film.

An there's also this, which I always thought was from some live action role play event, but maybe it is behind the scenes. I don't know why I thought a role play event would involve nudity like this.

That's from a soft-porn movie called 'Conan the Barbarian Topless Wenches'. Honest!An there's also this, which I always thought was from some live action role play event, but maybe it is behind the scenes. I don't know why I thought a role play event would involve nudity like this.

Those look like topless tenches to meThat's from a soft-porn movie called 'Conan the Barbarian Topless Wenches'. Honest!
There's something very fishy about the whole scene!
I actually thought it was from Ilsa, Harem Keeper of the Oil Sheiks, and she was wearing a chastity belt. Not knowing that it is a silvery loincloth.The original Conan the Barbarian movie?
But that gives guys like Lindybeige and Matt Easton a chance to post their rants, which I truely love.I can't judge a movie based on the combat, because they are all wrong...always. I would hate every movie I watch if I did that.
And I learned another word!Those look like topless tenches to me
And now I'm even writing with a German accent .... Zhe intro scene to the first movie is great.
his video on “Crap Archery in “Helen of Troy” makes me laugh every timeLindybeige
