Horrible Trailer

Flash Gordon did captivate me as a young teenager though. The iconic soundtrack was the real star here and I still enjoy listening to this album. Apparently a Seiko Pogue makes an appearance in the film. I was hoping to verify this earlier but my family h...  

. . . Flash Gordon ; its namesake Flesh Gordon . . . . . . should've won the Razzie had it existed back then.

But found this on google: While Flash Gordon (1980) didn't win a Golden Raspberry Award (Razzie), it was part of the very first ceremony held in 1981. Nomination: Sam J. Jones was nominated for Worst Actor for his portrayal of Flash Gordon. Everyday is a ... 

I can also heartily recommend finding the episode of Have I got News for You that he chairs. It's pure unadulterated TV madness - upstages everyone else & even the format! Cheers JML

He is superb! Cheers JML 🍻 Kurt.

It is a special watch to me.

In my opinion the music was perfect for this film and matched the feel and drama of the film. Interesting that Peter Wyngarde stared in it.

the music score is superb. Peter Wynegarde played the masked baddie General Klytus very well. 😀

... as the orignal series was from 1936. I must have viewed it in the early 1960`s I guess. I was also a fan of the comic magazine version in the late fifties and early 60`s. I feel that a Seiko Pogue would look very appropriate in the last version FG wri... 

I also remember the original FG with Buster Crabbe. It used to be on every Saturday morning when I was a youngster in 1970s. You jogged my memory mentioning this, happy days indeed. It is always a pleasure to participate and I am so happy you like my Seik... 

Hi Art and friends, Just a small selection of my favourite movies… Apocalypse Now is a movie that I have seen many times and several of the versions released. Cpt Willard played by Martin Sheen is a great performance … This is the Seiko reissue released a...  

. . . Apollo 13 'til now. Winner of two Academy Awards (for Sound and for Film Editing), every watch guy knows the scene where the Speedmaster . . . . . . saves the day.

Superb Film Also the appearance of this beauty Source: The Classic Car Trust ...  

... this fantastic DB2. Guess it´s time to view the film again! Thank you for sharing with us. Cheers! Abel

. . . of our oversights. James Mason . . . . . . never won an Oscar - unbelievable but true. Peter Ustinov and Charles Laughton - both . . . . . . Academy graduates, nary a mention in this thread. Peter Sellers - a bridesmaid . . . . . . but never a bride... 

Danny Devito deserved one as well for Wise Guys Also Tom Cruise, Samuel L. Jackson, Ralph Fiennes, Robert Downey Jr. and so on

. . . reupholstered in my Uncle's shop. That's as close as I've come to meeting a potential Oscar nominee. (Have run into Shirley Bassey before . . . the story's been told on WS several times.)

We must mention Hitchcock, the master of suspense.

… but restricted my post to just four films. Now I correct this by sharing my 105.012-65 which is close to the one used by Commander Jack Swigert to time the exact 14 seconds of fuel burning for the safe return to earth of the three Astronauts. Of course ...  

The film is still a fine tribute to the crew and everyone involved at NASA.

… viewing (several times some of them) and are among my favorites… as well as the watches you share here representing these great films. Great shots to bring them here! Cheers! Abel
