About 15 years ago, my uncle introduced me to my favorite “its so bad its good” movie. The movie was Flash Gordon (1980 version). I liked it so much as a kid that my uncle eventually gave me my own VHS copy to wear out.

This .gif I made is from one of the final scenes in the movie in which our hero, Flash, joins forces with Prince Vultan and his Hawkmen in a final assault on Emperor Ming’s palace. During the attack you can hear pieces of the Flash Gordon theme song by Queen.

I found the process of making the .gif to be extremely easy. Following Jim Groom’s directions I completed this in about ten minutes. I made a larger one but decided a 5 meg .gif was too large so I took it down a few frames to decrease the file size.
