Conan the Destroyer is the sequel to Conan the Barbarian, released in the year 1984 and starring Arnold Schwarzenegger once again.Conan and his accomplice Malak (Tracey Walter) are tasked by Queen Taramis (Sarah Douglas) to escort her niece Princess Jehnna (Olivia d'Abo) to obtain an artifact needed to resurrect Dagoth, "The Dreaming God". Little does he know that the god in question will bring the age of darkness upon its resurrection, and the princess has to be sacrificed in order to do so. Taramis sends her personal bodyguard Bombaata (Wilt Chamberlain) to accompany them. On the way, Conan saves the lives of wizard Akiro (Mako) and Zula (Grace Jones), who then join the team.Due to copyrights issues, a third Conan film, with the same director as Destroyer, became the Divorced Installment Red Sonja, with Schwarzenegger playing a character who officially wasn't Conan. | |

Locked Out of the Fight | |
| Conan the Destroyer / int_1c9e9215 | comment |
Locked Out of the Fight: The heroes infiltrate an evil wizard's tower to steal a Plot Coupon. When Conan enters a room with full-length mirrors covering each segment of the wall, a pane of one-way glass slams down behind him (naturally, it appears identical to the other mirrors when viewed from inside the room), allowing the wizard to summon a monstrous brute which Conan must defeat alone (fortunately, Conan is able to figure out that the mirrors are the monster's Achilles' Heel). | |

| Conan the Destroyer / int_1f75bca8 | comment |
Wizard Duel: As the group tries to evade a bunch of bad guys, Akiro has to use his skills to close a door, with the opposing side's wizard trying to open it. The duel is portrayed almost entirely by chants, gestures, reactions and Basil Poledouris' score, "Dueling Wizards". | |

No Time to Think | |
| Conan the Destroyer / int_1fd6a164 | comment |
No Time to Think: Conan reasons that the wizard he's fighting is behind one of two mirrors, while his friends are behind the other. He rears back to throw his sword, seemingly into the mirror hiding his friends, then turns and throws it at the other mirror, hitting the wizard. It's compelling, except none of his friends thought to simply duck, and Conan still decided to throw the sword, rather than just walking up to the mirrors and slashing them, as he had been doing. | |

Only Sane Man: Akiro is the only person in the party who thinks resurrecting Dagoth is a very bad idea, due to Conan being blinded by the promise of his One True Love being resurrected, Jehnna being brainwashed into her role as sacrifice, Zula Just Following Orders, Bombaata being a traitor, and Malak being rock stupid. | |

Prophetic Fallacy | |
| Conan the Destroyer / int_256eaa53 | comment |
Prophetic Fallacy: Taramis and her religion have an incomplete version of the prophesy about Dagoth's return, thinking they can control him by making a sacrifice as he reanimates. Akiro finds the full version that concludes with a warning that he will bring "death to the world" in the temple that holds the horn before they retrieve it, but by then Conan is blinded by his hope for Valeria's return and doesn't care. | |

| Conan the Destroyer / int_25a6c734 | comment |
Not in This for Your Revolution: In this movie, Conan is a mercenary hired by the Big Bad. But apparently he ends up becoming king. At the end of the story, the princess he rescued asks him to rule at her side as her husband. He declines, saying "Someday I will have my own kingdom, my own queen." The shot of him sitting on a throne implies that he did eventually go and conquer a kingdom of his own. But that is another tale... | |

Boss-Arena Idiocy: Conan fights a wizard in a room full of mirrors. The wizard is impervious to Conan's sword, but when Conan accidentally smashes one of the mirrors, a large gash appears on wizard's body. Realising what's for, Conan starts breaking other mirrors, hurting the wizard further until he dies. Since the room was inside the wizard's castle, it makes you wonder why he would put all those mirrors there in the first place. | |

Because Destiny Says So: Discussed; As Jehnna is retrieving the Horn of Dagoth, Akiro reads the full prophecy that tells of how Jehnna must be sacrificed, and how Dagoth will destroy the world once he's revived. When Akiro warns Conan of all this, Conan, determined to earn Valeria's resurrection, is dismissive of the latter point - "It's just writing on the wall!" - but as for Jehnna's fate... | |

Adaptation Distillation | |
| Conan the Destroyer / int_5a40d6a | comment |
Adaptation Distillation: The film seems to grab names from Howard's canon and slap them around willy-nilly. Queen Taramis shares the name of a character in "A Witch Shall Be Born," which includes an evil witch-queen. The difference is Taramis was the good and rightful Queen, her twin sister was the evil witch Salome who usurped her throne and identity. None of this is included in the film, making Taramis an original evil sorceress overlord. The name Thoth-Amon is given to a character who more closely resembles Thak from "Rogues In The House," an evolved ape-man who is surprisingly intelligent. Thoth-Amon was a Stygian (Egyptian) sorcerer and follower of Set, a clever and subtle nemesis who never actually faced Conan in person; the two were largely ignorant of how their actions affected each other. | |

Inescapable Net: In the Action Prologue, Queen Taramis sends her royal guard to capture Conan via this trope (and some hefty clubs), but only his Bumbling Sidekick is caught this way. Conan either hacks through the net or uses it to pull the guards off their horses. Eventually the queen tires of their ineptitude and tries negotiation instead. | |

Black Comedy Animal Cruelty | |
| Conan the Destroyer / int_e01c3d03 | comment |
Black Comedy Animal Cruelty: Conan punches out a horse during combat, throwing the rider. Conan continued on to knock out a camel that spit on him... and then, encountering the same camel later while heavily intoxicated, punched it out again — intentionally played for laughs with the over-the-top dizzy reaction and collapse of the camel. These wanton acts severely incensed real-world animal cruelty complainants, until it was confirmed that Arnold Schwarzenegger barely tapped the animals if at all: the animals were both trained to pantomime a fall. That didn't stop the scenes from being cut from UK syndicated releases because of "animal cruelty", for the better part of two decades. | |
