Description
So tonight I got to do something I've been waiting for my entire life...see my all-time favorite movie, Flash Gordon , on the big screen.The AFI Theater and Cultural Center in Silver Spring, MD was showing the film as part of its annual "Totally Awesome Movies of the 80's" program. And though I did sing along with the opening , I managed to behave myself through the rest of it. No small feat as Flash Gordon makes me giddy like no other movie has or ever will.
And yes, I did wear that t-shirt to the showing 'cuz, you know, I'm the coolest guy ever. HAIL MING!

Love your style plus every time I see this piece I think of the first time I ever watched that movie (that plus all those scenes from Ted with Flash Gordon). Β Great fan piece to Flash

I feel ya, bro. I did the same thing when I saw "Ghostbusters"(but only because I saw the music video beforehand). Anyway, besides the one you sang and the one I sang, my favorite 80s showtunes are:
9 To 5
Spaceballs
The Touch (Transformers '86)
A View To A Kill
All Time High (Octopussy)
Like A Cannonball (Cannonball Run II)
Care-A-Lot (The Care Bears Movie)(Seriously...I like Carole King.)

You are lucky beyond belief, my friend. I don't believe I could behave myself in ANY scene with Brian Blessed.

Don't worry. I would be tempted to sing a long too. It's got an awesome theme song.

This is such an amazing film! My fave band are Queen so when they do a movie soundtrack, I'm overly happy especially when it is a sci-fi film! Best parts of the film: Queen's soundtrack, Brian Blessed and GORDON'S ALIVE!

Awesome movie.
Whenever it comes on TV I flip it on and leave it on, growling at anyone who dares touch the remote.

Every time I come to this comic on IMOM, I open a new tab and play the immortal movie theme song...
...Princes of the Universe!
Better song, from a better movie.
Although... Ming vs. The Kurgan... who would win?

Wow...just wow. As a little kid I watched this movie and it didn't make a lick of sense to me, come to think of it all I remember is somthing with a docter being being brain washed kind of, flying viking men, and blond hair, and it was awasome! I think i'll have to watch this now sometime, thanks for digging up my childhood!
