Flash Gordon (1980)

Hell yeah

The Boyz weren't fucking around about Starz it's got the goods. Marked for Death, Predator, Ronin, Braveheart, lots more.

Has anyone listened to The Orb's Adventures Beyond The Ultraworld.

Saw an article that said Pfizer is giving some people with rheumatoid arthritis a herpes flare-up and I just wanted to tell Stanger to stop trying to blame it on the vaccine.

Would love to hear more Fender and The Kurgan

I can’t believe J-T-S-S was not on purpose

Rogers just blew his under the radar Omnibus fandom

The guy who Rodgers and Gabrus mentioned as having messaged them repeatedly about being on his CBB-inspired podcast regularly spams the Earwolf, Doughboys, and CBB subreddits with his bullshit. And more than once he’s gotten pissed off with people who took issue with the awkward and uncomfortable energy he brings to his podcast.

My dreams of creating a post-episode discussion podcast called 'AfterBoyz' died today.

I saw this for the first time a couple months ago. I thought Flash Gordon looks a lot like He-man. This movie feels similar to Masters of the Universe. Ming's castle looks a lot like skeletor's from the movie.

For 7 year old me it was Rockbottom in Flushing, queens. Close outs in gaylord boxes. Just piles of crap. All the off brand toys. The weird smell was from the scratch/dent wicker furniture.

When I first saw this on TV as a very young child, I was certain that Flash Gordon and DC’s The Flash were the same character. I kept waiting for him to get his speed powers. When he was gassed, I thought this must be it, I guess this is gonna give him the powers. There was very little movie left by the time I realized he wasn’t going to become super fast.

me!

I watched Queen’s Live Aid performance to pump me up before my interview to be a school janitor. This podcast is made for

I’m definitely the Vultan of my group

On the cheapo woolworths action figures: totally relate, they never had good characters and most of them looked like a mold got yanked from the factory in China. I had a garbage Cyclops where you held his head to a lamp and his visor lit up red.

Pretty embarrassed that this is unironically one of my favorite movies.

A double feature of this and The Apple (The Cannon Group, 1980) would be so choice

Brian Blessed rules. I always think of him as Matt Berry's dad because of that one Toast Of London episode and they have a really similar energy. He's also amazing in his chunk of episodes of I, Claudius, which has just every great Brit actor from the 70s hamming it up, including a hairy Patrick Stewart and John Hurt as Caligula.

I liked Little Monsters so much that I bought the novelization and read it multiple times as a kid. Isn't that amazing?

I hadn't seen this movie in over twenty years-- I texted my brother "the costume designer is incredible and deserves an oscar... they already had 'em." And Queen doing the soundtrack? C'mon! so much awesome in this one (and Topol's hamming it up... so fun!)

Gabrus Gorgon, FUCK YEA!!!

I played football against Jared Lorenzen in high school. Dude was a fuckin tank. This whole episode totally triggered my Cincinnati brain.

Oh well. Who wants to live forever?

Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This movie primed me to enjoy the Warhammer 40k universe.

The only race thing I know about Queen is that they played Sun City during the Apartheid boycott and they got flak for that. Their story was they stipulated it not be a segregated crowd and the promoters agreed, but that was due to the promoters knowing black people couldn’t afford a ticket! Freddie was very apolitical, I’d be surprised if he was a racist, though he was Persian and born in what’s now Tanzania and his family had to flee to Britain, so I could be wrong, maybe he resented that.
