It’s been a while since we did a “is this a bad movie” episode. But the best way of investigating a “is this a bad movie” is to pick one where one of the hosts is honestly surprised that there are people who don’t like the film. That’s what we have today. One of Mav’s favorite movies from childhood was the 1980 adaptation of Flash Gordon. Mav has seen it so many times that the honest truth is he really didn’t know that there were people who didn’t love it. So on this episode Mav is joined by Wayne and Flash Gordon IP superfan Neal Jones — who it turns out has never watched this film before — to analyze the film and it’s relation to the greater universe of Flash Gordon media. Do you love the film? Do you hate it? Is it good? Is it bad but you love it anyway? Listen and let us know your thoughts in the comments.
