The last I looked, the new movie is in pre-production with preliminary casting in progess. They're always delays, but it could turn out to work when they get it released. A mini-series could work if it panned out. I don't think the material is too old, but they could make it work. It all depends if it's meant to be. Time will tell.

[> Flash Gordon (1980) and Sam Jones -- Tim, 14:24:24 07/18/12 Wed [1]

On a side note, Sam J. Jones, star of the 1980 Flash Gordon film that Officer Torch mentions, appears in the new comedy film, Ted. Apparently Flash Gordon (1980) is the favorite movie of John (Mark Wahlberg), and he gets a chance to meet Sam Jones, who plays himself.

The trailers I have seen for Ted have not impressed me. The humor seems based on a great deal of profanity, not very creative in my opinion. But I have not seen the film.

The Flash Gordon connection and the appearance of Sam Jones are worth mentioning to FG fans, as trivia if nothing else. Here is a recent interview with Jones.
