Love this movie. Brian Blessed as Prince Vultan is over the top in a film that is already running over with amazingly wonderful ridiculousness. Glad you enjoyed.

Flash is a psychedelic Sci-fi fever dream and I love every second of it! Right up there with Barbarella in crazy Italian produced sci-fi.

I remember a friend watching this with me and saying her didn't get it. Then the battle of the rocket came on and Brian May leveling that guitar crunch, he turns to me and says "I get it"

The best thing about this movie is the theme song by Queen!

One of my ALL-TIME favorite movies since I was a kid. This also started my lifelong love for Queen since they did they entire soundtrack.

This movie was the precursor to "Dune." 1984. Both produced by Dino De Laurentis.

I still watch this movie fairly regularly, and have the soundtrack. When my mom remarried, it was in in home service and she didn't have a copy of the wedding march, so I played the one from this for it.

Yes! I love this movie and went to see it in the theater when it came out. It was not that popular because Star Wars set the bar so high for sci-fi movies that people did not take it seriously. It is funny and cartoonish so even die hard Flash Gordon fans did not get fully on board.

I love this movie, and I love the Hawkmen vs Ajax battle close to the end of the movie. Just pure awesomeness and a killer battle song by Queen.

I loved this when I saw this theatrically as a 13 year old, now as a 54 year old man I love this as a mixture of cheese and fever Dream.😂

Classic camp fun, many a young man came of age watching the princess getting whipped on that table lol...

I absolutely love this movie. The first time I saw it I was about 9 or 10 years old. I watched it so often that I still know lots of the lines by heart. Thank you so much for reacting to this, it’s so good to see someone from my generation reacting to movies that I loved. ❤️

There’s a band on RU-vid “The Lonely Ones “ that do an epic cover of Flash-Hero-Battle theme that is so good I play in my truck driving my hour commute often , thanks again Showdown! O and I been a fan of this movie since it first aired on hbo a zillion years ago thanks again!

I was 15 when this came out. It was the first film I was allowed to travel into the city alone to watch.

Aww, yes! Flash Gordon is one of my favourites. It is so cheesy, I love it!

Queens Battle Theme is the Best! Also every time I see Flash I think of “Ted” and Mark Walburg partying hard with Sam Jones(Flash) thanks Showdown always such a fun time here!

This is a hilarious reaction 😂 I love it when the spikes came out of the platform and he’s like “would you look at those sh!t” 😂😂😂😂

80's cheese galore! I haven't watched this since I was like 11. All I remember is it being weird yet absolutely entertaining at the same time.

Love this movie I bought this back on DVD back when you couldn't buy it because of copy right took me forever to tack one down... Great find back in the day..

You gotta love all that heavy 80's synth in this one. Great choice and hilarious commentary. I'm loving this channel. Thanks Showdown.

DIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIVEEEEE!!!!

“Ooohhh Flash!!! He’s takin on everybody,..in a T-shirt and some khakis!” Lol Showdown has be bustin up every time!! Lol love these reactions!!

This always reminds me of the movie Barbarella from 1968

"What an asshole! 'Volcano eruption'? Ming ain't shit!" ROLLING

This is a very realistic depiction of a typical day in the life of a Gordon.

This is a classic!!

Queen is fantastic here, love the soundtrack

My favorite movie of all time! I’m 47 and still love it to this day!

All I think of when hearing or seeing this is “Ted” the movie or “Ted 2” lolol

Lmao a TREADMILL WITH HANDLE BARS 😂😂😂😂😂

This was my husband's favorite movie when he was kid. He wouldn't let me talk when we watched it together...lol

Flash Gordon

Awww man this is awesome. Another one if you like this is Krull 1983.

I like this movie Pimpin! However, I did get a shock when I was younger... I put this movie into Pops Beta Max and turns out I put Flesh Gordon NOT flash Gordon.. I wasn't ready but couldn't stop watching 🤣🍻

2007 Flash Gordon is better than the 1980 version!

Oh that 80's cheese!

I saw this when it came out, I was 11, I thought it was awesome

I love this movie its an awesome movie how about some movies with Marc Singer in it like the Beastmaster which is also a great movie he also starred in one of the planet of the apes movies it was either Marc or Dolph that also starred in He-Man which was good as well or if you want some movies with creatures in i suggest some of the old Godzilla movies or a very vengeful killer whale movie Orca The Killer Whale or if you like movies with snakes in it there's venomous, Rattled, Silent Predator ok ok sorry I am a huge movie fan my list can go on and on and on (oops sorry i sound like the energizer rabbit with that lol)

Saw this in 81 I was 4 still love it the daughter of max von sydow was oh so hot the good old 80s

Never seen this movie, but death to Ming rings a bell... 🤔

Great reaction popcorn i didn't not know 007 was in this Timothy Dalton

This s*** was hilarious especially the treadmill would handlebars LOL

This movie is so over the top, over acted, cheesy and the craziest sound track. IT IS BRILLIANT!!!!!!! You have enjoyed the movie.... Have a nice day. YEAH!!!!!

There was a porno form '74 called "Flesh Gordon". I don't know if it had a Queen soundtrack, but considering it was the 70's, I'm betting the fucking music sounding something like "Shaky Ground" by the Temptations. Happy New Year!!!

Queen. God love 'em. 💝

Man I remember this like it was yesterday. Do yo thang Showdown 💯✊🏿 I was 6 years old.

Love this

I only had a good time because of you, because this movie is ridiculous!! 🤣 hoping 2022 treats you like the king that you are! 👑

DIVE!!!!!!!

Ha! Saw this in a Drive-In. Thought it was pretty cheesy! This and "The Black Hole" came out the same year. They were chasing that "Star Wars" gravy train! Still are! Anyways, great reaction, as usual, and I just wanted to thank you for all the great videos this past year. You have truly helped keep me sane in this crappy year. This whole century is pretty crappy, actually! lol. But not this channel!!!!! Thanks, man!!!!!!

Man … I tried to make it through this but you had more commercial than content.. commercial after commercial

DIIIIIIVE!!!!

I’m calling it before I even watch this: You bout to be hilarious!😂

awesome!

I love the soundtrack. I have owned the vinyl since I was 7 yrs old. O e of my fav cult films. Vultan is best.

Yayyyyyy! 🎆💎📼🎸🚀

Have you seen the Mark Wahlberg movie Ted?

Glad u reacted 2 one of my fav childhood films & u funny as shit this channel is lit 😆

So glad you did commentary on this!!! hahahaha Saw this in the theaters at least twice as a kid. Know it by heart. But now it's *your* voice instead of Brian Blessed's that I'm going to hear in my head at DIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIVEEEEE from now on. Thanks!

Queen 👑 🙌🙌❤️

Showdown your Brian Blessed imitations are awesome!

currently finishing off my 4k collection and i`m adding this to the list! It`s Great fun and supposedly a really nice transfer! Haven`t seen this in donkeys years!

This is a fun movie.

🤘🤘

What's it called? Earth. Immediately has a button for Earthquake... @00:42

Hey man thx again.

Another great campy 80s movie is dune. Makes the new dune movies poopoocaca

How's Flash know how to fly and all that other shit? Easy. New York Jets Training Camp gets you ready for everything but the Super Bowl.

I own this movie and none of my kids have made it through it. I don't get it.

Algorithm

Show, man, this is the worst movie I ever saw. Not even a b movie, it's a z movie. I watched it a billion times when it was on HBO. This movie makes me laugh and I laughed even harder with your commentary. Keep up the good work.
