Well, i'm not Lucy and I don't know a lot about Flash Gordon, but I love the Queen song about him
Actually, somtime me and my friend were signing it and another riend didn't kno the song but heard the word flash and started talking about him and then some othe stuf happened and it's not really an interesting story.
Flash a-ah Savior of the Universe Flash He save everyone of us Flash He's a miracle Flash King of the impossible
He's for everyone of us Stand for everyone of us He save with a mighty hand Every man every woman Every chill-he's a mighty Flash
Just a man With a man's courage Nothing but a man But he can never fail No-one but the pure at heart May find the Golden Grail .................ah................
I love the "Save me Flahs!" or whatever it is she says bit...

Yep, though thats 'The Flash', not Flash Gordon.
The film is good (and they're trying to make another), there was a cartoon series in the 80's (from the same people that did He-Man), and there was a black & white series shown at the cinema in the 30's i think (there was also a Buck Rogers and King of the Rocketmen series at the same time)

See, I was gonna add that, and several other quotes, but I thought people might get the impression that I'm obsessed...but it's lines like that that make it such a classic! Thanks for this thread Dark One, it's cheered me up so much ;D

i saw some of the 80s movie quite recently, couldn't watch it in it's entirety coz i was vastly outnumbered by those who did not wish to. i did find what i saw entertaining however, and i agree the Queen song is great.

Oh God, not Flash Gordan *covers eyes* How can you say that? You've gotta love the 80's cheeseyness of it. It's so bad it comes full circle back round to being good again!
You must at least like the Queen song!! ;D
