And it's still the best adaptation of Flash Gordon...
Thank you!
@@ComicsKingdomOfficial Me recuerda mucho a heavy metal pero mas familiar😂
Las historietas de esa época tenían casi el mismo arte y de ahí está inspirado el estilo de heavy metal.
Second one not so good!!!
Agreed 100%
Damn, amazing how just a few notes of the Theme pull that core memory back to the surface... And Princess Aura did some things to my younger self....
I loved this one. They got the style and overall themes of Flash Gordon exactly right. Really showed off what Filmation could do when they wanted to.
Dude used to love this as a kid. I watched in reruns during the 90s. The animated style always appealed to me.
The “laugh with head thrown back” was in quite a few Filmation shows. I remember Tarzan doing it and He Man. 😂
Probably all based on the same few seconds of footage. You can also see the same rotoscoped run sequence appear across all their cartoons.
Tarzan and Flash Gordon were both voiced by Robert Ridgely.
One of the best animated shows to come out of the 70’s. Great storytelling and it actually has a great story arc.
Thank you!
For me, the best cartoon at the end of 70's, supreme. Thanks for upload this intro and if someday I died, want remember this song in my mind. Good 👍🏻
Whoa this is amazing, old cartoons!
Jeez, just such amazing animation for the time. The retroscoping and "non-cartoonish"ness compared to how animation looks today is just a pleasure to look at.
Expensive at the time though. I love Filmation. The late 70s was nuts and then things simplified in the 80s. Still Blackstar and He-Man were really cool.
Blackstar's Overlord had *the* best villain voice.
Great theme.
Good cartoon.
Ahhhh. Saturday morning cartoons. Nothing else like it 😊
One of the best indicators of the overall quality of any show or movie is the music. Honestly, i thought the music for this show and especially the opening sequence was outstanding. Especially the first 30 seconds, from the moment the rocket ship takes off until you hear Ming the Merciless laugh. There's just something... epic about this.
Thanks so much for posting this!
I disagree, for me script is the best indicator of a show's quality. Music is an enhancement.
Cool Classic series
I remember seeing this on Saturday morning in the 1980's! I was already in my late teens, early 20's, but this was one show that could be appreciated by adults as well as kids!
It was one of my favourites along with Thundaar the Barbarian and Dungeons & Dragons.
I loved this!!!! My childhood is so far away 😢
Flash Gordon: one of the first isekai and the very first harem!
The Filmation made-for-t.v. movie was classic!!!
Agreed! I thought the Filmation movie was far better than the live-action one ❤️
@ 00:42 Where they got the idea for Teela in Masters of the universe
Way!!! Cool!!!
Man I love this animation even today. Got all the episodes available on amazon.
The studio who made the Flash Gordon cartoon must have taken a lot of risk to use high quality special effects and cinematography that is very expensive and only exclusive to big budget animated movies at the time.
Considering how successful this cartoon was, the risk must have paid off. I wonder if the studio planned an experimental pilot first before they can truly start off.
They had lots of money to make this series. Dino DeLaurentiis needed the rights to make a live-action FLASH GORDON and Filmmation owned the rights at the time. He paid them a very large sum for the rights and actually wanted them to make their animated version to help pre-sell his live action movie. Basically the animated version helped educate kids on who FLASH GORDON was so when his movie was released in December 1980, it was already in the public consciousness. It was a win-win for both Filmmation and Universal Pictures.
@biffmercury Flash Gordon was already in the public consciousness.
He had a popular newspaper comic strip and was also being published by various comic book companies like Gold Key / Whitman comics at the time.
Record albums of the Flash Gordon radio show were being sold and Flash had been animated previously on ABC's Saturday Superstar Movie in the episode, "Popeye Meets The Man Who Hated Laughter" in 1972 which had the first unofficial appearance of the Defenders Of The Earth (Flash Gordon, Mandrake The Magician, Lothar and The Phantom).
Besides that, The PBS station was running the Buster Crabbe Flash Gordon serials every Friday night at 7:30 and Saturday night at 11:00 in 1976.
Flash Gordon also had a TV series in the 1950s starring Steve Holland and at the time the 1980 Flash Gordon movie with Sam J. Jones came out, NBC was running the 1979 animated series and also Buck Rogers In The 25th Century which Buster Crabbe (who played Flash and Buck) guest starred on.
In 1974, there was a Flash Gordon parody film called "Flesh Gordon" which got a sequel in 1990 called "Flesh Gordon Meets The Cosmic Cheerleaders".
At the time that NBC was airing Flash Gordon on Saturday Mornings and Buck Rogers In The 25th Century on Thursday Nights, my local independent station, WKBS 48 was running "Flash And Buck" (The Flash Gordon and Buck Rogers serials with Buster Crabbe) on either Saturday or Sunday mornings.
A new Flash Gordon series starring Eric Johnson aired in 2007 who reprised the role in an animated short called "Flash Gordon Classic" in 2015 which can be seen on RUclips.
And of course, Flash was also animated in Defenders Of The Earth (1986), Flash Gordon (1996) and Flash Gordon: The Greatest Adventure Of All (1982).
And lastly, Sam J. Jones reprised his role of Flash Gordon in the Ted films.
AWESOME!!!! Thank you!!!!!
You are so welcome!!
12 year old me thought this was the shit.
Wow. Such a classic!
So cool
The animated movie from the studio was even cooler than the tv series.
In 1979, I turned 15. 1979 was the very first year of my life since I watched the first cartoon ever (later half of the 1960's) that I did not watch a single cartoon or children's production on television whatsoever. As a matter of fact, 1979 was the FIRST YEAR IN MY LFE SINCE 1968 THAT I DID NOT ATTEND ANY MOVIE THEATER, DRIVE-IN OR WALK-IN. 1978 was the very las year in my lifetime that I had attended a drive-in movie. I gave up on Saturday morning TV circa the spring of 1976 with Krofft's Land of The Lost. I really had no idea what was on television for kiddies in 1979. I was pretty much into adult entertainment that year. 1979 was the only year in the 1970's that I did not ever ride on a school bus or any other form of commercial transportation and had been the first year since 1973 that I had not been aboard any boat. The spring of 1979 was my high school freshman year. 1978 would be the final year ever for taking a school field trip. 1979 was also the first year since about 1967 I had not visited a beach having been raised in coastal Califiornia since 1965.
Always cracked me up Ming's entrance at 00:22....like....
"hmm, what that...never mind...nothing important, let me go on my way"
LOL!!!!
He's just a man, with a man's courage. You know he's nothing but a man, he can never fail. No one but the pure of heart can find the holy Grail. Flash!! Ahh!
King Of The Impossible!
Iconic 💕
This cartoon had a serious body count.
It's sad that 40 years later, cartoons are only worse :/
I kind of enjoyed the newer animated adventures of the avengers and guardians of the galaxy, and some of the direct to video batman titles are passable....
Agree 100%
Except SpongeBob
There are exceptions.
Not my time cartoon but i love it.. EPIC INTRO
"🤯🤯FLASH GORDON🤯🤯"
I remember reading the comics😍😜🥰
Underrated masterpiece
Anyone else notice that the music is exactly the same as the 1984 theme from the "The Natural." For the record, Flash Gordon came out in 1979. I'm sure there's a story there.
The Social Network theme also stole from this.
You are right!!
They need to re-release the original animated movie the Sat morning cartoon was made from.
I don't think they ever officially released it.
As I recall, the animated series began in 1979, but the full length feature, " Flash Gordon: The Greatest Adventure Of All" only aired once on NBC in primetime in 1982.
When the series was released on DVD in 2006, the movie was not included.
Only if they agree not to make it crap e.g. by inserting f gay characters.
They don't make cartoons like they use too
Damn right.
For better or worse
Was this on Sci Fi Channel’s Sci Fi Cartoon Quest back in the mid 1990’s?
Yes
needs more May and Balsara
I am of the mind the look of this series ("production design") partly inspired that of the 2022 computer game "MythForce".
It was the first time that computer assistance was used in American animation; it's really noticable in the way the ships move.
The narrator here sounds almost exactly like Lionel Hutz from the Simpsons
Cool cartoon.
Estupenda serie Flash Gordon la princesa aura los hombres Halcón y los hombres lagarto
Hmmm I prefer the intro in Spanish.
This one is epic and all that. But in spanish it is inspirational. hahahaha
The cartoon series was better than the movie.
Way better.
Ese leon que chistoso😂
This is on Tubi and Crackle
🎞️🎞️🎞️🎞️😊
Love this cartoon I love the trailer. But as one suggestion, when a trailer like this I would try not to have the little advertisements for your outfit show up before the trailer is finished. I couldn't see the action for the last 20 seconds or so because it was blocked by that
0:34-0:40
Is this animated using computer graphics?
Rotoscoping, wherein the animation is traced around a live model.
LOL NO
@@timepoet77 Here is a fun fact , cartoonist Max Fleischer famous for producing Betty Boop cartoons invented the Rotoscope.
This hit the air in 1979. At the time, CGI was way too expensive and largely too primitive (nerd pun) for a Saturday morning cartoon - even one worthy of prime time.
Filmmation used motion-control cameras to film miniatures of the spaceships and drew the cartoon version over the footage they filmed. They already were using motion-control cameras to film the miniatures on shows like JASON OF STAR COMMAND and SPACE ACADEMY. This was a very expensive show for them to produce and it shows, if you ask me.
The narrator sounds like Vince McMahon.
Robert Ridgely was the voice of Flash, and provided the opening narration, but now that I listen again, I think you're right; there is a strong resemblance.
A little bit. Bob Ridgely did a lot of stock "hero" voices. I think he later voiced John Blackstar.
Robert Ridgely voiced Tarzan not Blackstar.
Blackstar was voiced by George DiCenzo.
OMG it looks so prehistoric by today's standards
Better
It’s called “traditional” cell animation and its all pre-CGI. How old are you, 13???
Compared to what? The sausage bodies and bean mouths of CalArts trash like Steven Universe? 😆
In today's scifi stories the bad guy sits in front of a holographic screen touch screen compared to the big giant TV ming sits in front of
@@ritupanhazarika8847 Okay, I accept that, haha. Kind of like how in a lot of ways, we have better technology now than original Star Trek. I get you, now!
No, it’s not the same without Queen
Actually prefer the Filmation music to Queen's soundtrack. As I child I was hugely disappointed with the live action movie vs my fav Sat morning cartoon!
This is better.
"Classic"? LOL
