Line #2 Funny/FlashGordon1980


1	* Early scenes with Zarkov and his assistant, Munson, who thinks the guy's crazy and tries to escape. Topol is at his hammiest.
2	-->'''Zarkov: IT'S AN ATTACK!'''
3	* The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yNUcpXKiNZo Football fight scene]] where our hero takes on Ming's guards by playing quarterback. The whole sequence is a winner from Dale playing cheerleader to [[Creator/BrianBlessed BRIAN BLESSED]] whacking random guards on the head with his staff while their backs are turned to Ming's priceless remark about Klytus' troops:
4	-->'''Ming:''' Klytus! Are your men on the right pills? Maybe you should execute their trainer!
5	* How is Flash captured at the end of the football sequence? Not by being overrun by the guards or by Ming dramatically exerting his power, but by Zarkov [[EpicFail utterly whizzing a pass]] and conking Flash on the head with the metallic "ball" by mistake.
6	* While Flash is telepathically talking to Dale, he tells her to fake out Ming using her [[DistractedByTheSexy feminine wiles]]. Meanwhile Aura is doing ''exactly'' that to Flash, embarrassing him mightily when he sends the wrong thought to Dale.
7	* Dale's escape from Ming's chambers. The bit with the shoes, the unnecessary cartwheel -- pure SheFu. The shoe thing is extra funny, since she obviously slips them off because the heels are impractical in a fight, but she still grabs them and brings them along anyway because, hey, [[AllWomenLoveShoes free shoes]].
8	* Barin and Zarkov are blindfolded and chained up in a dungeon.
9	--> '''Barin:''' ''[{{Beat}}]'' Tell me more about this man [[Creator/HarryHoudini "Houdini"]].
10	** Made even funnier by "LONG LIVE FLASH!" being randomly written on the wall between them.
11	* "Give me the REMOTE CONTROL!!!!!"
12	* At Ming's wedding, ships fly two banners in the background. The first says "All creatures shall make merry". The second says [[HappinessIsMandatory "Under pain of death".]]
13	* Then you have the wedding vows:
14	-->'''Priest:''' Do you, Ming the Merciless, Ruler of the Universe, take this Earthling Dale Arden, to be your Empress of the Hour?\
15	'''Ming:''' Of the ''hour'', yes.\
16	'''Priest:''' Do you promise to use her as you will?\
17	'''Ming:''' Certainly!\
18	'''Priest:''' Not to blast her into space? ''[this earns him a DeathGlare from Ming]'' Uh, until such time as you grow weary of her.\
19	'''Ming:''' I do.\
20	'''Dale:''' I do ''not''!
21	* When Flash is about to perform a DynamicEntry into Ming's throne room with a burning spaceship, we're treated to the sight of various folks running in terror, and Dale giving a CallBack to the football scene by shouting "Go Flash!" [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere while fleeing for cover herself.]]
22	* ''Long live Flash! You've saved your Earth. Have a nice day.''
23	** "YEAH!" ''shot briefly freezes on Flash in midair''
24	* Nearly every word uttered and/or bellowed by Vultan ([[Creator/BrianBlessed BRIAN BLESSED]]).
25	* If you're familiar with BLESSED's legendary hamminess, his delivery of "Gordon's alive?!" is one of his funniest moments in the film, because it's unexpectedly low-key compared to what you might be used to from BLESSED.
