Is this something on TV which was shown to English only speaking people who cannot understand something a bit more complicated and sophisticated? :rolleyes:



Um I think the answer would be a resounding yes..

@Scayde:
This isn't about the great pulp sci-fi serial comic or the old black-and-white movies, but the velveeta-ridden, Queen-soundtracked movie with Max von Sydow, Timothy Dalton, Melody Anderson, Brian Blessed, Peter Wyngarde, Sam J. Jones and the super-yummy Ornella Muti.

In sheltered Scayde's defense, their is some evolution between the two - albeit more camp and tongue-in-cheek.

Its the All-American Hero thing.

"Watch me. Now, match him... like this!"
"Greater love hath no man than this, that he lay down his pants for his friends."

LOL. Great thread Frogus.

Flash Gordon is a Christmas event in our house.

This is so wonderful, I'm beginning to cry.... :D A Flash Gordon thread!!!

Frogus, you are the best. :) I'm going to run out and get a new copy of that movie. :cool:

Ming was deliciously evil. Aura was deliciously lovely. And Flash was deliciously heroic! I liked Ming's disaster buttons. Quite cool. :D
