Building up hype before playing Barb

[Noctus]

Hi everyone! Since the launch of the game is just within a couple of days(c'mon its not that much!) and I'm rolling The Barb, I want to ask you guys if you have some interesting movies with barbaric/ warrior'ish themes worth recommending(besides the ones I listed below). Books would also be nice but unfortunately atm I'm writing my bachelor paper so dont have time for reading a whole book.

Barb/ Warrior movies I like and are worth watching to feel more like a brute: The 13th Warrior, Pathfinder, Highlander, Conan the Barbarian/ Destroyer, 300 (ofc but not so much barbaric ;p), Gladiator (the same)

Cheers!

Here ya go. Really bad movie, but it doesn't get more Barbarian than this:

If you can find the movie of course. Its not on Netflix Streaming.

Watch The Avengers, because the Barbarian is basically Hulk.

I am a huge fan of the genre as well and to be honest I was dead set on playing a barb when the game came out until I tried the Witch Doctor in the beta and he blew me away with his fun factor. Now I can't decide, I think both will have high survivability but the witch doctor minion and zombie spells were so much fun to play with, not to mention the frogs... lol.

Watch Erik the Viking, its hilarious, I just saw it for the first time last week and I laughed my *** off. Its on Netflix.

Oh and the TV series Spartacus: Blood and Sand is probably the single greatest thing ever aired on television.

Conan the Barbarian.

Braveheart.
See my display picture for reference.

It is, in fact, the best movie ever made.

It's a scientific fact.
