Sweet Fantasy, Baby: 1982, Part Three
The trip down 1982 lane continues. We've talked movies others have recommended to me; we've talked movies I revisited. This next batch shares a common element: these are all fantasy films.
Conan the Barbarian
Titular barbarian seeks vengeance against cult leader. Milius gives it the epic treatment, complete with rousing score, gorgeous cinematography, and fantastic sets and costumes. James Earl Jones great as the villain. Interminable, but I can't dismiss it.
TRON, E.T., and more after the jump.
dir: John Milius
scr: John Milius and Oliver Stone, based on the character created by Robert E. Howard
