Yessireebob, I do love the DVD format... the movies LOOK BETTER and
SOUND BETTER... but best of all... there's more stuff on them!!
With extra features like original trailers, director commentary, cut
scenes, and storyboards... I can spend even more time doing my favorite
thing... watching the same movies over and over again!
Well, today I received word that one of my All Time Favoreeeeeetes is
finally coming out on DVD... My heart is pounding... drool is dribbling
down my chins... the movie being released is... FLASH GORDON (1980)!!!
I think everyone will agree that this is one of the classics of the
screen and its release in this state of the art format is... long
overdue.
Some of the special DVD features: 1. Brian Blessed (the winged Prince
Vultan) provides running commentary (you can either just listen, or
watch him in a tiny corner of the screen... he even squeezes back into
his old costime from the film!)
2. Watch QUEEN recording the songs for the soundtrack. Look at those
pants of Freddy Mercury... tlak about Flash!
3. An interview with Max von Sydow (from yeeeears later) in which he
cannot remember (or pretends not to remember) playing Emporer Ming!
4. An alternate ending in which Flash clicks his heels three times and
learns the true meaning of Christmas!
5. Still shot of the single frame in which Ornella Muti's (Princess
Aura) costume slips... and you can see a third of her nipple!!!!
Sorry folks, but after this DVD comes out, don't expect the site to be
updated for a few days!
