All of the reviews seem to love it, making Nutt's complaining curious.

Come on, tell us it's a "very less than stellar film" again. And again. And again.

I have no obsession. Aside from not rolling over for your behavior. I enjoy this movie. You insult me and it.
And thanks for admitting that you weren't trying to have a discussion, you were just interested in "poking fun" at me. Others have said they think it's campy, but they haven't been trolls about it, like you.
We know you don't like it, but you bought it anyway. Your need to keep telling us those things repeatedly is what is pathetic. And for anyone wondering what this dolt has done - I recapped a bunch of his posts not far back.

I think we need to have a poll to determine what percentage believe the film is camp. I remember when my father ran this movie at his theatre right before Christmas. After he saw the boxoffice receipts, he had some choice descriptive words for it that make camp sound generous. I was seven at the time and found it pretty entertaining though at the time I had no concept of "camp." Max von Sydow definitely steals the show though and not in a campy way.

As far as the new DVD goes, I had a grin on my face the entire time I watched it. The colors in this movie really scream out to be released in HD.

I am having a streak of bad luck in everything I order or buy lately
I just went to Best Buy, I bought Flash Gordon. It was $16.99 and it had the sticker. But when I opened it there was only the B&W card!! And I got it from BB cause it was supposed to have the other card! This sucks!! Everything I buy or order lately is bombing one way or the other!

Just got my set yesterday. While, it sucks that it lacks certain features...I like the case and the look of the set. The b&w postcard is fine (would have been nicer done in vivid colors). I look forward to sitting down and watching Flash this week!
