<li>Conan prefers to not wear any kind of armor for battle at any point in this movie, yet he certainly wore armor for battle in the last film.</li>
<li>Apparently Queen Taramis' city is near the Mounds (and the beach next to it) from the first film. Why else would Conan and Malak assume that Taramis' guards were sent by an angry merchant?</li>
<li>Apparently after the Battle of the Mounds from the first film, the Mounds underwent some catastrophe that destroyed the rocks, turning them into a rock pile circle and having the hill that Valeria's pyre was on sink down to level ground.</li>
<li>Apparently, evil sorcerers who rely on magic to physically beat strong men to a pulp only know professional wrestling moves rather than actual combat arts.</li>
<li>Zula is said to belong to a group of bandits who were killed off, yet their corpses are never shown and Zula doesn't seek revenge against the villagers who killed her compatriots.<br />

<li>Conan is in his underwear only for three instances, but one of those instances is really long and has no excuse, another is moderately long and it's only because he didn't want to get his trousers wet, and the third is a bit short but has no excuse since he's in an important ceremony.</li>
<li>Conan actually spends more time shirtless than he does pant-less.</li>
<li>Between getting out of a collapsing castle and rowing out into a lake towards the shore, Conan apparently found time to get dressed without anybody else on the boat batting an eye.</li>
<li>Conan and Malak either ran into the same camel Conan and Subotai ran into years earlier offscreen, or that Conan and Malak had an offscreen encounter with a camel similar to the first one.</li>
<li>Thorgrim from the first movie apparently has a mustachioed, long lost twin brother found in one of Bombaata's guards named Togra, and who can last longer in a fight with Conan than his own captain.</li>
<li>Queen Taramis has both mesmerizing and pyrokinetic powers, but only uses them to convince Conan to help on her quest to get Dagoth's horn.<br />
