SciFi Wises Up!! Queen’s 1980 FLASH GORDON Theme Graces 2007 Series Teaser!!
I am – Hercules!!
Apparently SciFi launched last weekend a 10-second teaser promoting its new “Flash Gordon” series, which bows in August. No footage from the show was utilized, but something rather cooler was.
One can hear a tiny yet unmistakable snippet of Queen’s “Flash Gordon” theme, for my money the best part of the 1980 Sam Jones movie. (It kinda sounded like a cover version, but I’ll leave that to the experts to debate.)
Of course, just because they use it in the promos doesn’t mean it’ll actually serve as a component of the series itself. Remember how UPN used The Calling’s “Wherever You Will Go” in all its first-season “Enterprise” promos, only to bait-and-switch into Diane Warren’s supershitty “Faith of the Heart” as the show’s actual title theme?
The Queen-y promo is now online. Want to sit through a 30-second Listerine or Esurance commercial to hear all 10 seconds of the promo for yourself? Click here!!
(Thanks to “RoboGeek” for the heads-up!)

I really can't get over Swede the Merciless. Props for using Queen even if it is only for a teaser.
-
SO CLOSE TO FIRST, gosh darned it. Any hoo, yeah, didn't sound perfect, but still cool. As for the teaser, it was so freakin short! The show's only 2 months-ish away... They could show more!

Yes but will it have a bearded, over-weight, over-actin

....old thesp as Voltan!!!! "Oh well, who wants to live forever. DIIIVVVVEEE!!!!" "Flying blind on a rocket cycle??" I could go on all bloody day...god I love that movie!
-
ev'ry child with a mighty flash!
Oh Lord please please please let the showrunners recognize their low budget, cheap-ass sets, stupid premise, crappy make-up, crappy everything and as a result make it CAMPY. That's about the only way this show is not going to suck... -
...and it made me drag out the old album again. It has moments of extreme cheese, but some of the driving instrumentals kick major ass. One of my favorite LPs as a kid. I'm definitely up for the new series; we'll see if it turns out better than your average Sci-Fi Channel offering (and they've ONLY been getting better lately... PAINKILLER JANE notwithstanding). Flash is an iconic hero of olde; we'll just see if the budget allows for BSG-quality FX. Hope so.
-
...short. Very short. And yeah, it sounded like a (rather loyal) remake of Queen's track.
-
DIIIIIIIVVEEEEEEE! Blessed FTW!
-
Rescue Me's promos featured Queen & Bowie's "Under Pressure"...... but I'm not complaining, becauce the Von Bondie's "C'mon C'mon" rules sumthin fierce. Oh, and by the way, last night's show SUCKED!!! It's going downhil fast. :(
-
And regarding Flash Gordon, I've got my fingers crossed. Of course don't get too attached, you know damn well it'll be cancelled within four years.
-
bows or blows.. i think you made a typo herc =)
-
and I'm a guy that hates Diane Warren.
-
That so fraggin' works! Instantly recognizable for those that are familiar with the 'original' film, yet intriguing for those that came after or like sci-fi but are unfamiliar with the movie (I suspect).
Good work. -
I mean, it's from the people behind Chamred and if that wasn't cheesy on purpose, then that's somehow more horrifying a prospect for Flash.
-
Too bad this will suuuuuuuuuuuck.
-
Yup Parin is in it. But he's a generation older than Flash, and is kind of like Theoden in LOTR. They make a character out of his daughter who is a spunky, sexy, possibly bisexual tough girl. Unfortunately it sounds way better than it reads. I was really let down by some of the choices in the pilot script.
-
The movie's biggest "flaws" were the either over acting (actually part of it's "charm"- acting SO bad it's GREAT)- or just plain not acting at all. I'm hoping they'll have enough sense to go back to the original source material, slightly update it, rewrite it so it flows better, but keep the elegance and charm that Raymond (MUCH more a visualist than a writer), had in it. One of the few things I love about the film is you get to see a LOT of Raymond's look and feel from his original work- but from the stills I've seen with this series that's far from the case.
The snipet "teaser" song sounds like the original sunk through a synthisizer btw, probably sets the tone for the whole series (again NOT filling me with a lot of confidence).
Finally, the new logo completely BLOWS, nothing wrong with using the original stylish one from the strip unless they're really pulling away from that and just "updating" the movie. But again, if you WANT folks to think Battlestar Galactica more than the original work- they did their job well.
So far- not so good.
-
this is utter crap ... making you watch a 30 sec commercial to watch a 10 sec promo ... which is just another commercial ... in most cases I even get .. AFTER the commercial 'video not available' or 'not available in your country ... which is funny .. since the products that I have to watch the commercials for are also not availble in my country ... if it is not on youtube or apple .. it sucks ..
-
But at least a happy series it shall be. Happy, merry, gay and fun.
-
so they won't.
-
That's all I got from thinking about the whole recycling business that scifi is doing right now. Original?! right dudes sure.
-
I was listening to that promo and I swear it was a shitty cover the Queen original. Just use the Queen original already. We already know the show is going to suck HUGE BALLS so why not at least have a cool theme song.
-
It's certainly a better cover than the abysmal cover of "Princes of the Universe" that unspools with the equally horrific Highlander: The Source
-
...but that Crest theme was fan-tastic!
-
It's quicker and Sci-Fi won't pay out for the original.
-
Queen expert here and I can say without a shadow of a doubt that what sci-fi used in that promo was NOT the original Queen song but a cover.
-
it was "Faith of the Heart"
-
but it was still fun. "what do you mean, 'flash gordon approaching'...?"

by big_bubbaloola
Classic!!
-
caipirina is right... I'm watching ads to see another ad now? What kind of fucked up world are we in?
-
Loved that but yeah the show looks cheap. How long after this tanks will we have to wait for it to be done properly I wonder? Another 20+ years?
-
When do we get Buck Rogers back?
-
It was Queen, it was resampled as part of the 2000 Flash Gordon Remix that was done.
Its really a good mix, I recognized it right away. -
I think they just messed with it. Unless they got somebody who sounds just like Freddie, like that dude who toured with Journey. Anywho, I love the movie. It's my #12 all-time favorite. I don't expect much from SciFi. I've never been one for their programming, but I'm sure it'll find an audience. I'll probably watch half the pilot and hate it.
Wait a second. I just checked what the dude playing Flash looks like. Ew. There's no way. I can't even believe he was teenage Tristan Ludlow. And he hadn't even seen the old movie before he was cast?Oh, forget that. See I didn't even have to watch any of the pilot. I already hate it. Dale's pretty though. -
They should use the ORIGINAL AND BEST one.
"Flash, Flash I love you, but we only have fourteen hours to save the Earth!" -
Sound quality, folks. If you are the official source for a teaser or trailer or fucking commercial, please remember that you look like a moron if your official teaser site sounds like Soundwave's illegitimate baby being drowned in a paint bucket of water. I happen to like the Queen song, but not when it's being played, seemingly, for the benefit of cetaceans. Maybe Flash Gordon is going after that critical baleen whale and porpoise viewership demographic. FLYING BLIND ON A SKY CYCLE?! HAR HAR HAR! Fucking classic....
-
Gotta have the Dalton, baby.
-
Best fucking line ever uttered in any movie. At least, by von Sydow as Ming. I really think he deserves a special Oscar for "Most Scenery Digested by One Actor" - reference Ming (Flash), Fargo (Dredd), Gaunt (Needful Things), Kynes (Dune), and last but best, King "What Arrogance! I salute you" Osric (Conan).
-
Never miss an opportunity to say that. Hopefully this series will be worthy of a cameo from The Daltonator himself!
-
One of the horniest movies of the early 80s. Show will suck balls, though.
-
how they used that Queen version of the Wedding March, like as if every planet in the universe independently came up with the same tune to signify a wedding. I guess they realised that and thought "Ah who cares? It sounds great!". Which it does.
-
Where's the talkback?!?
-
Oh, yeah . . . Flesh Gordon's for another network. Could rock, could just suuuuuuuuck. Let's take a look at Sci Fi's track record - or not and hope for the best.
-
but the idea of a network making a DELIBERATLY cheesy over the top piece of camp frippery seems unlikely paricualrly as with this whole "a legend is reborn" malarky....
-
Maybe it was my air-conditioner.
-
used the opening bars from John Williams Superman score? Twas a scene of Clark descending the stairs toward Jor-El for the first time and Im telling ya...I was feeling it here (thumps heart) lads. But look where Smallville hath got us now....

See flash! on earth! see ming! in business suits! See chicks! in clothes! Be bored! Download one or two episodes! get bored! be dissapointed! See sucky CGi! EAT ME!

I found out about this yesterday, sent a note to Herc. Hopefully he'll post it today. -

Studio 60 series finale talback, pray tell? I want to see Simon get fired, Jordan survive to smack down 'illiterate', er, alternative programming (reality TV), and NOT for Harriet and Matt to get back together again.
Maybe the TV biz has passed Sorkin by. Studio 60 will go down as one of the more head-scratching 'why did this fail?' series of the past decade. -
can thay not revive John Belushi? Cos he had more life in him than hat series.....
-
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
WHY???!!!! -
Expect another bait-and-switch here.God save Queen.
-
Bash 'Jim' if you will, but they did manage to knock Armed and Famous off the air, so they did serve a useful purpose. ;)
-
And I don't even like Sam Jones.
-
Which is why ATJ survived, IMO.
-
related to that token black kid from Smallville? Cos he was Sam Jones the 3rd wasnt he? Actually it seems silly that an aryan white guy would be a close realtion to a pretty much black kid-question withdrawn....
-
actually show. This is like showing Optimus at the convention and then unveiling Optimus, now newer and better with tons of moving parts and flames.

I still don't understand why you people think it sucked. It was a perfect "inbetween" theme that bridged the present with the future, and was an inspiring song with some good musical cues that lined up with the visuals. I got pissed off when they changed it, and I blame you freaks.
-
It's just been washed through a flanger in the studio post production of the ad.
-
just perfect in every way. the wedding sequence must be the best scripted in history:Zogi, the High Priest: Do you, Ming the Merciless, Ruler of the Universe, take this Earthling Dale Arden, to be your Empress of the Hour?
The Emperor Ming: Of the hour, yes.
Zogi, the High Priest: Do you promise to use her as you will?
The Emperor Ming: Certainly!
Zogi, the High Priest: Not to blast her into space?
[Ming glares at Zogi]
Zogi, the High Priest: Uh, until such time as you grow weary of her.
The Emperor Ming: I do.
Dale Arden: I do NOT! Always makes me smile (cut and paste courtesy of imdb) -
Never mind
-
Sorry, I gotta disagree. I kept wondering if I had timewarped back to the 80s. It could only have been worse if they had Steve Winwood sing it.
-
In the REAL Ming makeup, of course.
-
about an all America guy getting stuk on the other side of the universe, battles all sorts of bizzar aliens, makes all sorts of bizzar allies and runs across many hot chicks including his true love.
It's kind of surprising theScifi cannel hasn't done a serries like that before.
Of, wait! THAT'S JUST LIKE FARSCAPE! Well, at least as much as the new Galactica is like the old Galatica
Guess that's what they needed to do to get another season call it a reimagining of an established movie or series. Guess originality is only forgivable if you pretend it's not orgininal.
Oh, What price hath originality without apology wrought. -
A good move? Gotta disagree. The movie was a *parody* of Flash Gordon. The theme was fun and catchy, but it's part and parcel of the parody. Any decent version of Flash Gordon should stay miles away from it, and from anything else connected with that movie. What I'd like to see is a show that tries to capture the spirit of the *original serials* but with modern production values, not a retread of a 1980s comedy.
-
Analogy: Do I like the "na na na na, na na na na, BAAAAT-maaan!" theme from the Adam West tv show? Of course. Do I want to hear that theme in one of the Christian Bale Batman movies? Dear god no.
-
"THIS MING...IS A PSYCHO." I'll watch the guy in anything. I just watched CITIZEN X the other day, where he plays the humble psychiatrist who finally makes the killer crack in the interrogation room. Good stuff. Underrated movie.
-
...that's where the money for a 5th season of BSG went. Frak! Oh, does FRAK require a GUNSHOT?
-
worse than many 80s show themes.
-
Excellent in everything...no question. The Exorcist, Victory, Dreamscape, Conan, Citizen X, etc.And is it just me or is Dreamscape ripe for a remake? I usually gripe about 'remakes gone berserk' but Dreamscape was a fun movie with a great concept suffering from bad effects.
-
The "o" in Gordon is an exact copy of the DC Comics's Flash logo used by their Barry Allen, Wally West and (until last week) Bart Allen characters. Plus, it's been merchandised out on t-shirts, stuff from the old Warner Bros. stores (*Sniff* I still miss 'em) and DC Direct products. Expect a logo change before August.
Also, I'm glad to know I wasn't the only one pissed off that The Calling's "Wherever You Will Go" was dumped for that piece of shit "Faith of the Heart" from a fully-loaded baby diaper. The Berman and Braga couldn't even get their fucking theme song right, so you knew the series was ultimately doomed to fail as well.
-
Star Trek without Kirk or Spock (or Sisko) is not Star Trek and sucks hard. Enterprise, Voyager and 99% of TNG sucked hard. Flash Gordon 1980 fucking awesome , could watch it once a month and be happy. Max Von Sydow - Perfect Villian!!! Brian Blessed - Perfect Superhero!!! Queen soundtrack might be the coolest music ever produced for a sci fi movie. White,Non threatening politically correct Ming is both lame and gay. Flash without the Queen theme also quite lame.
-
Best band ever!!!
-
That's another movie with Queen's music written for it, and it STILL hasn't been remade! That's sickening, leaving a movie from the 80s alone rather than remaking it...!
-
or does Sam Jones resemble a blonde-haired Ashton Kutcher?
-
That sounded more like one of those songs that's supposed to sound like something famous, but they changed enough notes so they don't get sued. The best remix of the FLASH GORDON theme is the one by Mr. Lawnge from the Black Sheep. And of course, it would be remiss not to mention Public Enemy's "Terminator X To The Edge Of Panic".
-
Never Gonna Give Never Gonna Give
-
While we're careening way off topic here, I just want to say that I think von Sydow should have been considered for the post-Harris Dumbledore. Not that I don't like Gough, but so many times in Mr. von Sydow's performances I've seen both the twinkle in his eye and the towering presence JKR ascribes to DD. Ah well, maybe we can hold out hope for a cameo as Ming Sr. in the new series.
-
still don't think they're gonna use it.
peace -
a Studio 60 talkback fails to appear. Like it or hate it, it's the last episode, and deserves some sort of discussion.
-
... That PROVES it won't suck! I just hope they use those non-movable, gold-painted, plastic bird wings for the hawkmen or I'll be sorely disappointed. Also, Prince Baron's forest moon SHOULD look like a stale breadbowl filled with leftover parsley...
-
If Bonnie Hammer is still running the show, then SciFi is just as brain-dead as it has been for the past ten years or so. Seriously, what sort of brainiac decids to ditch the ORIGINAL Star Trek series and replace it with Enterprise? And thats just the tip of the iceberg of bad decisions they have made under her leadership.
-
Oh wait, they already did. They just call it Battlestar Galactica. LOL
-
Get back to Fark!
We were talking about Worcester.

From another message board; one person asked when he found out about the S60 DVD which will be coming out in October (?) what the commentary from Sorkin and Tommy Schlamme would be. Here's another's novel reply:
SORKIN:BOW BEFORE ME YOU IGNORANT KNAVES FOR I AM YOUR GOD!!!
SCHLAMME: Thank Christ I only directed the first two episodes and one of the later ones. I get to leave with my reputation intact.
SORKIN: COME ON! SKETCHES THAT AREN'T FUNNY AND CRAM POINTS DOWN YOUR THROAT ARE WHAT AMERICA NEEDS TO HEAR, EVEN IF IT'S NOT WHAT THEY WANT TO HEAR! I AM THE WAY, THE TRUTH AND THE *takes hit of crack* THE LIGHT MOTHERF*CKERS!
SCHLAMME: Maybe Marc Cherry needs somebody. His show is basically a "Home for Lost Writers /Directors" as it is...
SORKIN: AND OF COURSE YOU PEOPLE DON'T KNOW WHAT ROMANCE IS! AFTER ALL, ISN'T STALKING A WOMAN AND THEN HAVING HER INEXPLICABLY DECIDE TO BECOME YOUR GIRLFRIEND/FIANCEE ROMANCE? ISN'T BEING A TURD TO YOUR EX, AND CONSTANTLY WRITING THE CHARACTER WHO IS BASED ON YOUR REAL LIFE EX AS DUMB AS DIRT, THE ONLY ROMANTIC THING TO DO? YOU'VE ALL GOTTEN CYNICAL!
SCHLAMME: Damn Judd Hirsch had the right idea: Get out in the first five minutes.
SORKIN: BE RIGHT BACK. I'M OFF TO STAND IN THE MIDDLE OF AFGHANISTAN!
Me: Yikes... :D -
More Penisaurus!
The rocket ship has just landed on the planet Porno. A long necked, sauropod dinosaur with a glans-like head is seen out the window in the landscape. Flesh asks Dr."J", "What's that"? "Must be some kind of penisaurus", Dr. "J" replies matter-of-factly. -

Still doesnt change that a blond headed is playing Ming
by allpowerfulwizardofoz
This series is going to be the suck. They got it all wrong from everything I've read.
At least Universal is FINALLY putting this out again on DVD in a better release. I have the original DVD release. The question is will it get the HD-DVD format? -
... a caucasian playing a Japanese warrior (Heroes), a crazy-ass, serial third-world child-purchasing white chick playing an African-Dutch woman (A Mighty Heart)... guess with the new, fascist majority in the Supreme Court, Hollywood's rolling out the minstral shows again. Hope when they do "The Clarence Thomas Story", they get Tom Cruise... that'll make that Oreo choke on his Wonder Bread and mayonaisse sandwich!
-
If you have a region free dvd player. There is an excellent remastered special ed, anamorphic version of Flash that has been out for about two years. i believe it is only available in the UK, Amazon UK has it. It is a very sharp print and has Brian Blessed commentary and yes he sounds exactly like you would expect Brian Blessed to sound. For those interested there are many sites that have codes to program your dvd player to play region free.
-
I like Queen. But how can you call songs like "Fat Bottom Girls" or "Bicycle Race" anything other than cheesy?
-
The Emporer would shoot you for interupting his wedding with this news.
Dispatch war rocket Ajax to bring back his body.
-
I also think the Queen song and the movie are the equivalent to the 60's Batman series, but the more I hear about this series the more it sounds like it won't even be the breath of fresh air that the 89 Batman movie was at the time (even though we needed a new breath of fresh air from that not 20 years later). The sad thing is that most of the Talkbackers and Herc are only interested in this if it has the Queen song. That's all that anyone has talked about for this fucking series, except maybe to briefly acknowledge how shitty a blonde Ming and Earth-bound setting are.
-
... that Queen's theme will be the new series' title theme, but it will be performed by another, little-know band.
Seeking confirmation from SciFi now ... -
Weak.
-
Art is blue.
-
It has some of the shittiest FX ever seen in a movie. Cmon, the hawkmen flying, getting picked off in the air. It looked cool when I was 4 or 5 or whenever the hell it premiered but the film just doesn't stand the test of time like it should have being the influence for Star Wars. I will admit, Queen's song was pretty good and is actually better than the movie if you can believe that.
-
the movie's fun and all, but i think the best thing they can do is not take anything from it and just go back to the original comics for their source material. a theme more along the lines of scifi's battlestar galactica might be better
-
Bring in Sam J. Jones, Timothy Dalton, Brian Blessed for cameos! Bring it on! Flash... Flaaaaaaaash, DUN DUN, Savior of the universe!!!!!!!

I Love This Movie. High camp at its best. Glorious costumes. Bad Acting. Opreratic score. Art direction on acid. Silly. Pulp. Brash. Innocent. It's not the fuckin Matrix people. God knows if they did remake it ...it would be filled with anguished, brooding leather-clad, goth rockers wearing sunglasses and doing spin kicks to NIN backing tracks. But hey...Im biased. I saw it when I was 11 and it spun my imagination around like half a dozen other movies did in that era (Tron, The Thing, Raiders etc.) It's simply burned into my brain. Like the old Batman & Robin TV show...it's all ridiculous camp, but when your 7-8 yrs old...that's heavy fucking DRAMA! It's definetly a unique film. I read one critic called it "strangely entertaining"...that about sums it up.
-
Fuck your racist ass.
-
And I love that Flash Gordon movie...I probably watched it 20 times on cable when I was a 13 or 14 year old. It is cheesy but fun and the Queen music really helps with the cool mood of the film.
-
Seriously Herc, they're as awful as anything Diane Warren hacked up...
-
Should just make "Science Fiction Double Feature" the theme song. It's slightly less silly than the Queen theme. (And this is coming from a Queen fan)

A-ha! I thought it was one of the prime numbers . . .
by kevinwillis.net
. . . of the Zeeman series. I haven't changed!"
Flash Gordon is my favorite movie of all time. The series can't possibly live up to it. Unless . . .
"We are going to empty your memory, as we might empty your pockets... doctor."
That might do it. -
Maybe you should execute their trainer.
-
"But we only have 14 hours to save the Earth!"Possibly the greatest line ever in American cinema.
-
Not too bad.
-
It's what they call tears, it's a sign of their weakness.
-
I can't help that, Aura. Keeping our word is one of the things that make us... better than you.
-
Hawkmen... DIIIIIIVVE!
-
Awesome. That and the Battle Theme on fixtures on my mp3 player. If you can't love the 80s Flash movie, you're just a big sourpuss. PS, everything about Enterprise sucked, starting with that shaving cream jingle of a theme -- except the Doctor, the endless sexgel rubdowns, the Vulcan Sex Massage w/ optional "logical ending", and the attacks on Earth.
-
SAVIOR OF THE UNIVERSE
-
There's something about those effects that really appealled to me as an 8 year old (I saw it on my birthday). Yeah, they're dated, but I still love them. The ink-tank skies are great and the model ships too. I can remember trying to make them out of lego. Good times.
-
Do they really have to ressurect this song? Ugh.
-
"Thats for taking the Kid from the Boat"
-
OK posers, that little snippet was Queen. I've been a Queen fan for 30 years and know the sound. Was there opening day for "FLASH" back in 80 and still can remember the theater. Can't wait to get a look at the new one..could this mean we get Klytus again?
-
zing!crikey, I got to use that quote twice in a week. Won't do it again.
-
Not all of the acting in the 80s movie was bad. Sure Jones and Anderson were bad as the leads, but Max Von Sydow, Brian Blessed, Ornella Muti, Topol and Timothy Dalton were all very good in their roles, and delivered their lines with gusto! And nobody can kick over a tripod like Dalton!
-
. . .is that it ISN'T 100% camp from start to finish. Take the Zarkov brain-drain, for example. I vividly remember what a total mindfuck that scene was (no pun intended). . .flashing thru Zarkov's life with his wife drowning and everything. You know what? I don't mean to complain but I was DEEPLY TRAUMATIZED by that scene for a long time after that in fact. So it definitely has some serious shit in it IMO.
-
Which will suck more? Place your bets.
-
... it's you Refuckicans like Clarence (Justice Tom) Thomas who're the racists, and his case, a traitor to his own people. Heard he never even asks questions during court proceedings... guess his jaw's gone all Kobayashi from all the knob-shining he does for Justice Scalia.
-
Sci-Fi Channel, huh? You don't have to be Criswell to predict that (1.) the series will suck, (2.) Lorenzo Lamas or a Baldwin brother will own recurrent role, (3.) It'll be embellished with apprenticing CGI shlock. As for politics, the only think equally annoying as a propaganda-spewing right winger is a propaganda-spewing left winger.
-
But still kinda neat that they used it... made me feel like a 7 yr old again for a sec...
-
...They have to pay the rights anyway they may as well just use the original music for fuck sake. I hate it when they go out of their way to buy the rights to a song to use in an ad or movie or tv show and then just do a hack cover of it. If Sci-Fi is smart they'll just use the original. Besides Queen is just one of those bands you just don't cover, like the Beatles or Pink Floyd it just don't work out well.
-
They are pretty cool. You can see the Star Wars influence big time.
-
So good. Flash was the first film i ever saw in the cinema, so it is always going to be a fave. I made my buddies sit through it just to see the unmotivated tripod kick. No one believed it would be as wierd or blatant as I described, but it was!!! Very funny. Also "That must be one hell of a planet you people come from..." "Yeah. Not that bad." Awesome, makes me proud to be human.
