- This Buck Rogers film short was made for the 1934 Chicago World's Fair by the owner of the comic strip. The amateurish acting and effects make for a modern "camp" classic. Read more about the film at caferoxy.blogsp...

Thanks 😊 I have been watching buck Rogers and flash Gordon with Larry buster crabbe since the 1960s but I have never seen this version. Have enjoyed watching this one 😄🙌👌👍 thanks again 😊😀
Did you know that next year (I'm typing this in 2018 so next year for me will be 2019, if yo get what I mean...) will be the 90th anniversary of the first ever 'Buck Rogers' newspaper strip!
3/1/1929 (or 1/3/1929 if you are from the states) was the date that first strip was first published, alongside the first ever Hal Foster 'Tarzan' strip (purely by chance by the way...) granted the first short story came out the prior year (thus making this year the 90th anniversary of Buck, or rather 'Antony' if you want to get picky about history) but the fact remains that Buck is almost going to be 100!
Only 400 more years before he wakes up from his Rip Van Winkle act...
Thank you so very much for this I have been a fan of Buck Roger since 1965 when I first watched the Buster Crabbe serials on after school tv. I love the costumes they are so close to the comic strip. I hear a new version is in the works I hope it’s better than the 1970s version. Thanks again
Dr. Robert Goddard and his wife Esther saw this film while visiting the 1934 World's Fair---and they recognized Dr. Huer as a good-natured parody on Goddard's own public persona as a scientist...
How cool would it have been to see this on the big screen in the 1930s?
Mind blowing
Still better than anything Michael Bay has ever done.
Not the island
Still better than The Last Jedi.
Better than JJ Trek, and Discovery. and done with only a hand full of actors,and toy space ships. The first ever Buck Rogers movie with out Buster Crabbe, and Constance Moore.
I need a "cosmic radio television"
I'm guessing that the writers of this serial were still coming off of radio drama writing, given the constant reliance on narration rather than letting the images do the storytelling. Some of the camera work is clever, I'll say that.
...can you help?... I am trying to locate on the Internet some general information and the titles and some examples of the series, half an hour long(?), made in the 40s (?)... shown in movie theatres... I remember seen two types: ...men with wings who could fly... and the cops and robbers type with lots of car chases...
Probably given the $1.98 budget for costumes,sets and special effects you go with narration every time. What sterling cast.
This was so surreal. Like watching a junior high play on acid. In a good way.
Too precious for words. We were truly that young at one time, will we appear as such tomorrow? How quaint we will all look. Even so today. Still, it's a great show. (Still prefer current Buck Rogers.) 😍☺️
Thanks for posting this film
My favourite line: "Ahhh, there goes Buck -- good luck, Buck!"
Wow, what an amazing clip! Corny, awful, ridiculous ... but a year older than the first Flash-Gordon-serial. That means that its second half may be the very first space-ship-battle ever shown on a silver screen. And the explosions of the ships were pretty well done for the time, better than in the Flash-Gordon-serial.
Today it would be WTF Buck! Use the dayam magnetic ray! LOL
Way better than Star Trek Discovery. Way better.
I guess this probably qualifies as the first movie made based on a comic.
my face HURTS SO BAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I laughed so hard I pooped myself
I'd like all of you to remember, that this Buck Roger's is closer to the Civil war - than YOU are to it ! As a matter of fact: at the time, there were still war vets when this hit the theater.
Hats to the fathers of sci-fi cinema....you youngsters show some respect.
Excellent! Thanks for posting this. I think the spaceship effects looked better than the 1939 version.
I like how his cosmic radio television makes a 1990s modem sound.
the first cosplay of a hero in this world 1:56
I don't like it, I love it!
What a hoot!
This is what the future will bring, if you asked the folks in 1934.
I wish someone would do the original novel.
LA PRIMERA BATALLA ESPACIAL EN NUESTRAS PANTALLAS!
Like how it was close to the comic s strip. For a commercial project great. I'll bet people who saw it were impressed. No matter how many times you say it was a low cost project you get useless comments. Thanks very for sharing.
I wonder what that toy rocket-ship cost back then? About 2 bucks?
So I wonder if this is the first feature specifically designed to be a toy product tie in.
Like Action Man, Transformers and Yu-gi-oh.
Tigermen of Mars... I'm thinking that the Kilrathi are an older idea than I thought.
Yeah, the clip hadn't any impact on the sf cinema because its audience was limited to the visitors of the World's Fair in Chicago. And its "narrative" is awfully crude and simple. It was clearly conceived as a sort of commercial, not as "cinema". But nevertheless it was shown on silver screens and precedes Flash Gordon as a first live-action space opera.
They knew the source material. That's Good.
aaaah! there goes BucK! Good luck BucK!!!
Thanks Ron.
OMG! The scientist is wearing a smock made out of a garbage can liner bag!
I think it's a very shiny vinyl vest.
Eat that J.J Abrams! :)
This can't be Buck Rogers! Where are all the space babes in tight spandex? LOL.
That is the 1979-81 Tv Series
By jeez, Wilma's wearing a short little dress for 1935 - the actress was pretty game!
Those Rockets sound like that propelled by a duck calling whistle or fart power .lol
Wow that's awesome and wonderful science fiction movie back then but I truly love and appreciate the modern version of Buck Rogers in the 25th century from 1979-1981. Gil Gerard as the real Buck Rogers, the 1930's version is all right and okay.
DAMM I WISH I WOULD OF SEEN THIS ON I MAX !
Does this channel have any MARTIAL ARTS movies?
This video got me stoned and it was quite good.
LOL It's great when you can get a buzz off an old flick, right? 🤣
1933 this film is from 1933-1934 this film was shown
Así es como de imaginaban el año 2,500.
Imagínense nada que ver
Whoa Boy that was so bad! LOL But ya gotta start somewhere. Talkies were only about 8 years into the new movie techno scene and there was still a lot to be learned! After a few more of these, they broke into the mold, they cracked the code, and Buck was the most popular serial of its time. My Dad loved these as a kid. For them it was like watching 2001 A Space Odyssey!
7:17 "Oh, Buck, wasn't that a battle?"
Notice that Wilma says this as they're standing next to a communications device that looks suspiciously like an Atomic Space Dildo... ;-)
She also looks dizzy from all the spinning in a circle the ship did.
Casting call for 'Buck Rogers'. No previous acting experience required
Hey genius don't point that thing at me as the lady in the mini skirt is saying her self. Don't you know that laser thing got a interplanetary recall to return to the nearest Buck Rogers vintage antique shop
Showww muito bom
WHAT THE BUCK! 🔫🚀🤣
Someone please tell me that this is just a "Retro-Photoshop" joke! If not, I feel myself sliding back into my old "Purple-Microdot" days!!
IT'S A COFFEE GRINDER.
Oh God, did anybody catch that at 1:31 minutes in? That so called genus monkeying around with that laser gun he just zapped Wilma's breast, nuclearizing her breast milk.thats some genius😧
Interesting their are Tiger Men
Was this still considered cheesy in 1934?
Still?
Well, done took a hit & got me a bottle of "Thunderbird" on the table. Why the constant "FOGHORN" sound-effect??
Star Wars prototype
i cant take my eyes off his strange looking arms
wow, talk about giving the original author screen credit.
It looks like sci-fi if it was directed by low budget exploitationeer Dwain Esper (MANIAC, NARCOTIC, SEX MADNESS and so on).
That genius must have found some cool props with those two huge stereo speakers that he probably bought from the Salvation Army on the planet Mars...
🖖🏽🖖🏽👽👽✨✨
This clip has been on youtube for nearly ten years. Sadly, it hasn't improved with age.
Pretty gosh darn clickey!
Daaaaaaaaam!
I'm mild to moderately disturbed by this
I've seen bad toupees before, but Dr. Huer has a really bad bald wig. A lot of actors going bald try to make their fake hair look good, but here's an actor with hair failing at looking bald.
What a mess!
They were already getting dei. Where are the huns? Black washed.
Still better than the Buster Crabbe serial or the Gil Gerard TV series.
That is debatable
That is absurd.
Cringeworthy awful. Yet iconic.
it look like a circus or a them park of rides wtf lol
The buck actor is terrible
What a waste of eight minutes of my life.
As a comic strip it was totally amateurish compared to Alex Raymond's Flash Gordon.
It was still a fun read.
Geesh! Talk about an amateur production! This clip is simply horrible with the worst actors I've ever seen. Even for 1935 this is dreadful...
A bald cap? How obvious
lame acting and lame script.
The film was better of being a "silent movie". LOL
