OK - so I take it that when I decided never to watch (this version) of FG again after the first half hour, I have no reason to regret that decision?
If you are ever in the mood, there was an X-rated animated parody of Flash Gordon some decades ago (Flesh Gordon). It was pretty funny (, and (IMO) actually a decent distillation of the cheezy fun of the original. Don't want to exaggerate - nothing even a little bit subtle - a lot of it is the kind of humor reasonably clever 13 year boys might come up with when feeling horny and frustrated.
Flesh Gordon was a classic of its genre.
Huh -- a group of us went to see Flesh Gordon in college together for a laugh, and we all wound up walking out halfway through because it was so boring. (It wasn't animated, though, it was live action. Maybe it was done twice?)
Context in that case being sex or aggression.
Doesn't that cover just about everything?
(It wasn't animated, though, it was live action. Maybe it was done twice?)
No, it is just that I have the memory of a man twice my age.
There was some stop-motion animation in FLESH GORDON of the low-budget Ray Harryhausen school, but it wasn't animated per-se.
I'm thinking about watching Mind Control tonight just to see Simon Pegg. I'm still not sure why he is going to be on it. This should be filed under "random, much?"
I remember Flesh Gordon as being fairly entertaining, but I think it's been 30 years. I remember you had to be pretty familiar with the serials to catch all the jokes.
I finally watched last night's Eureka. I liked this episode much more than last week's. Although, I still feel that Allyson has two alternate personalities. One where she's all buddy-buddy, let's be confidants with Jack and the other one that's an ice princess. I wish the writer's would either make up their minds where they want her and Carter to go or quit dicking with her characterization. I want consistency, darn it.
I loved that dream with Jo, Stark and Fargo! And the surprise that it was Jo's dream. Hee. And I loved that Jack gave her a pair of toe shoes. What a sweetie.
I'm was hoping for more payoff with the memory wipe by Henry, but I guess I'll have to wait. I'm just going to be curious to see if Jack really believed Henry or if it's going to get him thinking.
There was also a sequel to Flesh Gordon. Pretty people nekkid, adolescent-level sex jokes, and that was about it.
