Other mistake: When Conan gathers flowers to "take to the girl", the flowers that he is holding as he mounts his camel, are very long-stemmed, and dark purple in color. In the next scene he is riding the camel and the flowers he is holding are not only very changing color as another post indicated, but they are also very fake plastic / fabric flowers. In the same scene, Conan is then seen wearing a strong of flowers around his neck, those too are very fake flowers. (01:05:00)

1 other mistake
Directed by: John Milius
Starring: Arnold Schwarzenegger, Max von Sydow, James Earl Jones, Sandahl Bergman
Continuity mistake: In the scene when Conan's mother is killed, we see her using both hands to hold her sword toward Thulsa Doom and his men. The camera cuts to young Conan and he is holding her right hand. When the camera cuts back to her, she is holding the sword with both hands again.
Thulsa Doom: Infidel Defilers. They shall all drown in lakes of blood.
Trivia: Arnold Schwarzenegger did his own stunts, as a believable stunt double could not be found.
