I expect this thread to get buried quickly but I had to sing the praises of whoever decided to release Conan the Barbarian in its original cut.
Music issues from the Blu ray were fixed and gone was the dumb princess scenes at mount Doom at the end of the film and yes the idiotic Heart to Heart between Conan and Subotai before the battle of the mounds was removed.
Now this isn’t just the old cut. The ending still had the Mako voice over at the very end . I still prefer the original without that last narration by Mako but I’m not complaining. I also believe there was a slight change in ending at Mount Doom but I would have to look at my old DVD again
Anyways this was great to see on the big screen made even better by getting rid of all that stupid stuff from the Blu Ray “directors cut” Hope this means a 4k version is on the way.
That Blu Ray version was souring this film for me. I hated the princess stuff that much cause the score no longer fit what was on screen.
Anyways my 11 year old self was having a great time.
