For a basketball player with no previous acting experience, Chamberlain did an EXCELLENT job of conveying mass and serious threat. It speaks well of how he was handled by the director as well. He didnt look like any newb chump handling those heavy weapons either. Sure he wasnt going to win an Oscar for the role, but he carried the role of a skilled, veteran, brooding, yet loyal and deadly violent BIG man. He and Arnold squared off so well here.

Love this fight. No unnecessary dailogue and right to business. They all know what they're there for.

This scene features some of the best Arnold noises ever captured.

Arnold said, "Wilt was the strongest ever. He could lift me up with one hand."

Ever since I listened to this film score as a kid it hit me, and has stayed with for decades now. I still sing it in my head every now and then. So pleasant and soothing and uplifting.

2:08 IS WHAT INSPIRED MIKE TYSON TO TAKE A BITE AT HOLYFIELD'S EAR

No fancy sword spinning, no acrobatics. Just two warriors getting down and dirty, to the death. I love it.

When I was in the Marines my buddy would lift Weights to this Music. LOL

Bombataa was a beast

Arnolds shape was the best in Destroyer from his whole movie career

Wow! This brings back memories of the 1980's when my family finally got cable,and the cable company ran this movie at nauseam.

The fight between Conan and Bombaata was supposed to be the main one, but it was downplayed to give more prominence to the fight between Conan and Dagoth.That was the weak point for me because Dagoth is a ridiculous monster. Conan vs Bombaata was to be legendary fight like Conan vs Rexor in first movie.

Sarah Douglas looks nice with long braided hair. I'm used to her look in Superman.

Arnold said that Wilt was a beast in the gym.

That throw at 1:46 is epic! right on the money!

The music is absolutely fantastic in both movies.

If wilt was born 2000 1000 years ago he would've been a legendary warrior, and we would still hear stories about him today

the music was really cool for the beginning of this scene when they wander into the chamber and face off against bombaata... since their is no dialogue, the music did all the talking, and it was a bit tense, a bit playful as the two warriors loved to fight, and it was a symphony, as so much was going to happen at the same time... it was a great use of music

I wish they made one where Conan was king like now in 2020.. with Arnold as Conan and someone else as his two sons and daughter

All the evil cults in Conan's world just listen to the same track on repeat... ;)

The Real Hero of this Movie was Zula.

You can tell that there was a real epic vision for this movie, and that the team just wasn't up to the task of making it work.

It's kinda haunting that as long as Dagoth is born through the sacrivice of the girl, he'll emerge as a beautiful man; but if the sacrifice is omitted, he's reborn as a disgusting monster, and there is nothing he can do about it.

7x Mr. Olympia vs. 7'1" NBA Legend Two different great athletes going down and dirty at each other in raw sword duel to the death. OUCH!

Love that movie, specially the parts in which Wilt rides, he's so tall that his horse looks like a donkey.

Bobbuta gave Conan one hell of a battle

I love that "Oh SHIT" face from Conan when Bombaata lifts the urn.

Just look at the torque that Wilt had when he struck down at Arnies sword. 1000 foot pounds baby.

2:08 Похоже, что этим моментом вдохновлялся Тайсон, когда откусывал ухо Холифилда)

Legendary Warriors Kick booty Badass men and Beautiful Babes . RIP Wilt Chamberlain

Man, it's so weird for them to use the Orgy music from the first one.

Que película x dios...las dos...la música las peleas la historia... épicas

Grace Slick launched that spear like a goddamn ballista bolt. Love that woman!

I saw this in the movie as a kid awesome picture. Both Conan movies are great very different movies. One is revenge ;one is adventure. This track is also in both movies.(of course a different variation)

Man, those weapons looks heavy.

2:07 Iron mike tyson later used a varient of this move to much success in the boxing ring

It was the late Wilt Chamberlain's only acting credit I know of. He did a fantastic job of playing Bombaata as a first time actor

No words needed to be said. I hate you. You hate me. Lets finish it.

The fact that D'Abo wasn't naked in that scene is a crime against Robert E. Howard.

This is one of my favorite scene and movie

maxed out fighter vs maxed out barbarian. you may as well flip a coin to see who wins

Good fight

Chamberlain is a real life giant. He absolutely towers over Arnold who is 6 foot tall.

0:07 When you leave your entire party for dead to escape a battle area but they all survive and manage to catch up with your arse...

BOMBATA did a Mike Tyson move with that ear bite...

That throw off the spear killing the priest was mega epic too. And then the statue of Dagoth gets creepy.

I can’t see Bombaata as a “villain”. He’s loyal and following orders, but obviously his agenda is at odds with Conan’s. He probably believed Dagon would come to life as a benevolent god, not a fish-monster...

I watched Conan the destroyer on my dad VHF/VCR in the early 1990s,i became a fan of Schwarzenegger since then

Filme relíquia anos 80 a melhor era dos filmes

Am I the only one that likes The Destroyer better?

Super film seen so many times.

Bombaata leaps at him like an actual whole beast. I mean jeez!

Que desfecho ! Imagine a sensação de assistir pela primeira vez na época !

the first was a masterpiece, this one, well... entertaining at best

That ritual is how the elites get down by a in the grove of the holly, if you catch my meaning.

During filming Wilt got a little carried away and smashed the vase directly on Arnold in the first take.

1:37 you rolled a critical succes on your attack throw!

man Arnold was so good looking with that long hair

Even the score gives me memberberries. I was like 7 when this came out and watched it till the VHS wore out.

What a freak athlete. Wilt was 47 when this was made (a time when we didn’t know nearly as much about longevity/staying athletic while aging) still got offers to return to the NBA after this film came out.

That 80s stop motion is still creepy to this day

Mike Tyson must have watched this scene as a little boy......

Prime Arnold, so awesome 🥰

The ear bite.. that remembers me tyson biting Hollyfields ear hehehe

This seen reminds me of that friend of a friend that finally reveals themselves as your true enemy who no longer hides in the shadows. This may be a lesson on the wonder years perhaps

How good the world could have been, if the sacrifice gone ahead. We'll never know. Poor Dagos

I really enjoyed both Conan movies. I had been reading the books for a few years before the first one came out. I remember when it hit theatres and my buddy, who was being raised by his grandmother, invited me to go with him and his nonna Vai. I was only twelve then I think and when that sex scene with the witch came on I remember looking down towards Vai and she had her head in hands and she was shaking it. We absolutely loved the movie and about an hour after I got home Vai called my mom to apologize for taking me to a rated R movie at age twelve and how her grandson Chris told her the movie was just fantasy and blah blah blah 😂. God knows I replayed that scene in my head many times. My mother came to me and asked if I had any questions about what I saw lol 😂!! I said no just that it’s dangerous to sleep with witches lol. Sorry for the diatribe but this just flooded that memory back into my noggin for some reason

Best movie blend the magic with fighting 🎉🎉🎉🎉

Bruce had Kareem. Arnie had Wilt. Keanu had Boban. ~_~

Great movie.

Love it

My favorite part of the movie is this fight scene

Gotta wonder if Grace Jones and the blonde princess were among "Wilt the Stilt"'s 10,000 conquests!!

Good scene

Bombaata is absolutely badass. Not someone you would pick a fight with. And the statue of Dagoth is really cool and gets creepy as fuck when the priest is killed.

I didn't think about it until today, this was the only movie or TV show Wilt Chamberlain was ever in. Nothing else.

It's a crime, with the popularity of conan and King Conan comics, that Swarzenegger is still preventing from reprising his role

thats why wilt scored 100 points

1:44 That javelin was going straight for the girl.

0:56 seems like he actually got hurt

WILT!!

"If the girl isn't killed at the first signs of life in our god a great catastrophe will befall us"

If i had to battle to the death or trial by combat… i would choose this song to fight to

These were the kids movies back in the 80s, not the crap they watch now

So is this where Mike Tyson learned the ear biter move

i stand with Conan

this whole scene from Dagoth's revival is so epic ! we all agree first Conan was better... but this entire scene is just PERFECT !

Conan gave him a chance to stand aside.

Thought bombata would of done a full 180 and help the princess in the movie but nah he hated conan and didn't even say a word about a damn thing before trying to kill them both.

Conan O'Brian got ripped for this role

When doesnt Gracie Jones save the day!?

The detail of "all for all battle" even bitting ears and with mouth abd nose bleeding and a couple of dagger puncturings, the mace failing a hit and crushing sone of the stone column, the visible sweat mixed with blood , the echoes of the hits sounding in the room, one tall muscled barbarian,more strenght than battle skill (arnold is 6 feet 5 inches or so) versus one taller warrior/soldier more disciplined /skill but less strengh and taller (bombatta's actor is 7 feet 7 inches or so). Hate amounted but retained through time that flows rageously at end, And a fight without ornamentings, nor dramatic "beautiful" actuation. Only two nasty guys killing theirselves to the limit..... This scene hides more than surfacial eye can see.... Law vs chaos, discipline vs wildness, cold calculated intelligence vs instinct, loyalty to the govern and orders (bombatta) vs loyalty to own moral and pride, sophisticated wrap n (bombatta's mace) vs rude but more strong weapon (bastard sword of conan), armored warrior (bombatta) vs unarmored barbarian, and the dificulty of overcome the disadvantage of reach (bombatta's height gives him more hit range than conan). One not speak and only take care of himself (bombatta) and other (conan) only speaks for telling his friends to save the princess (being altruist). It hides more than meets the eye. It is one of the best fight scenes of the cinema. And of course arnold muscles are awesome for sight. And scenario is elegant and luxurious. Great,great battle scene. Hides much more than could be supposed

2:07 Wilt is the OG of bitting ears before Mike Tyson.

Barbarians are Wicked Badasses

Who else would fight bambada for a chance at the princess. I'm only 5'10 and I would

Good straight up Barbarian fight 🫡

Conan series is much better than all Aliens and Predators (and I would also like to see him against Xenomorphs) but I am wondering: why did this series not continued?

“Enough talk!”

I just realised today, after so many years, that Bombata ended up being the virgin sacrificed to Daggoth, since he was an eunuch; quite ironic, somehow.

So, this is where Mike Tyson got the idea to bite Holyfield's ear off!
