	FLASH GORDON'S TRIP TO MARS
		Flash and Zarkov are able to enter the lab unnoticed and steal "gas masks" (spiffy clear glass tube shaped helmets with 3 cylinders in the back, presumably oxygen), but they are spotted entering the tunnel to the Clay People's vacuum tube.
		Flash grapples with one of the Forest People high in the treetops and falls to the ground, where he is stunned, possibly concussed.
		Flash asks the Air Marshall to stop the Nitron Squadron from attacking the Clay Caves but he pretends to have problems with the televisor, so Flash sends him and one of the Squadron pilots to the aerodrome to try to contact the Nitron Squadron from a stratosled.

	FLASH GORDON CONQUERS THE UNIVERSE (1940)
		Flash dons the local Ruritanian uniform (not one he will wear for long) and learns he is just in time for a banquet to be held for Queen Fria of Frigia (just what you'd expect from that name and, as you'll see, location), another of Ming's enemies.
		Flash is forced to tell his father that he doesn't have Zarkov or Dale with him--that they were captured by Ming, and he must go back and deal with his arch enemy.
		Flash, who we know is quite strong, manages to pry a huge boulder off a cliff which smashes the lodestone, dropping it into the planet's depths, and putting an end to its magnetic pull.

	VH1.com : Movies : Flash Gordon Conquers the Universe [Serial] : Review
		Flash Gordon Conquers the Universe is a bracing, dazzling movie serial, 12 chapters of nonstop action that are as entertaining today as they were in 1940.
		The third serial, Flash Gordon Conquers the Universe, reflected the world of 1939-1940; in place of the Oriental robes that he wore in the first serial, Emperor Ming (Charles B. Middleton) now wears a European-style uniform cut along military lines and he employs stormtrooper-type soldiers in his attempt to conquer Mongo.
		The serial's title, by the way, is explained in the final shot when Ming the Merciless declares "I am the universe!" As Zarkov explains, having defeated Ming, Flash Gordon has, thus, conquered the universe.

	Serial Thrills (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		The serial film was born very early in the history of cinema, but its origins actually lie in the publishing industry.
		Serialized stories were a popular feature of newspapers and magazines in the first decades of the 20th century.
		They, too, sponsored a series of short films that would complement their latest serialized thrill yarn, but this time, each episode would end on a high point of suspense in the hopes that would drag audiences back for the next installment.

		In 1936, Flash Gordon was among the most popular comic strip characters in America when Universal Pictures first brought his planet-hopping exploits to the big screen in the 13-episode serial Flash Gordon, one of the most lavishly produced and wildly popular "chapter-plays" of its day.
		Flash Gordon's Space Soldiers, the title of the original serial's home video release (the title was changed in the early 1950s to avoid confusion with a short-lived Flash Gordon TV series), features all 13 installments in their entirety.
		Flash soon finds himself battling Ming both for the fate of the Earth and the hand of the lovely Miss Arden, though Ming's daughter, Princess Aura (Priscilla Lawson) appears to have amorous ideas of her own for Flash.

	Scifilm -- Musings, "Flash Gordon Conquers the Universe" (1940)
		"Flash Gordon Conquers the Universe" (1940) - Serial
		The third of the Flash Gordon serials does a little recasting in some of the roles; new actresses play Dale Arden and Princess Aura, and a new actor takes the role of Prince Barin.
		They're not bad by any means, but I did find that they didn't look anywhere as distinctive as their predecessors in the series; therefore, I have a lot of trouble telling the characters apart in this outing.

	Flash Gordon (1936/I) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		After 66 years "Flash Gordon" still has an appealing scifi/adventure/epic feel that many of today's science fiction adventures strive for and fail to deliver.
		The only way to fully enjoy this serial is just to sit back and not pick at anything (hokey effects, dialogue, why Flash doesn't go for Princess Aura etc.).
		And as for you older people who saw "Flash Gordon" back on the serial screen or on T.V. "back in the day", if you want this fine serial to remain appealing to future generations, get your kids/grandkids to watch this when they're young.

	Jedi Council Forums - Will The TV Series Be Like Flash Gordon/Cliffhanger Serial's???
		So, we know that Flash Gordon and other serials/cliffhangers were partly the inspiration for Star Wars, so with the upcoming live action TV series, I'm wondering if George will take that inspiration to another level and have every episode end on a cliffhanger and start with a reprise of how the previous episode ended?
		The darker side of the series means it will lean away from melodrama.
		We'll have to wait and see if cliffhanger endings are used for the Star Wars Live Action TV Series but whatever works good for the TV Series I'll probably be for it.
