Jay 37,378 Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 I've seen each of the movies one time each. I've heard the theme a million times, mostly on Kunzel's Great Fantasy Adventure Album. I think I've listened to the OST and the Re-Recording of the first score one time each, but I wasn't giving it my full attention either time. Now I'm just waiting for the Intrada edition before diving in again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brónach 1,302 Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 I fell in love with both at the time. They were very different experiences for me. I think Conan sticked with me more and longer, despite listening to it less extensively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,378 Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 I greatly enjoy Poledouris' scores to Starship Troopers and Robocop, and fully expect to love CTB and CTD once I start listening to them. I'd like to see the films again sometime too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Incanus 5,716 Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Surprise surprise Lord of the Rings for me. Conan the Barbarian is a fantastic score though and my appreciation of it has grown in the recent years thanks to the re-recordings of both of Poledouris' scores.But what madness has gripped the MB with all these insanely inane polls? Is there is a fear of LotR/Shore faction coup or something? Or is there such a faction even in existence? Because it seems some members seem to think so.

Brónach 1,302 Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 I think I also root somewhat for Conan given that this is three massive scores against one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KK 3,307 Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 LOTR:KKI love Conan, but I guess my choice was pretty obvious. Both scores are representative of the heights of fantasy scoring, but LotR took it to another level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dean1700 4 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 JOHN Shore????Are you really serious with this thread? I'm not sure which is more of a joke. This thread or you for posting it.Since it seems to be the time for LOTR polls, here is another one!Two great scores, two of the biggest (if not THE biggests) scores for fantasy films.On one side, you have Poledouris' Conan The Barbarian, which is full of testosterone, yet wit and lyricism as well.On the other side, Shore's sophisticated and intellectual, yet deeply emotional score for LOTR.Who will you stand with?Choose now, or feel the Wrath of Crom (or Melkor's) !

Melange 446 Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 Well I've briefly contemplated this on the Tree of Woe, chomped on a vulture, been resurrected during a night ritual, gave a camel a right hook and have decided in no time at all that for me Conan the Barbarian by Poledouris wins this little competition. I base that on enjoying every track of Conan the Barbarian, whereas although I love certain sections of the LOTR scores, there is a lot of it that doesn't grab me.Conan the Barbarian as a score, is so neatly arranged to be a great listening experience.As for those who voted for LOTR, I say - "Infidels!...they shall all drown in lakes of blood.
