I found your site and thought you may find this very interesting. My grandfather was Maurice Gillett who was lighting gaffer for FLASH. I was lucky enough to go to the UK premier and saw all the stars, I still have the original premier tickets and brochure pack. Maurice wrote a book and had a large collection of stills he took and these are now on display in London in the new Movie museum. They are now producing a set of stills from FLASH from his collection.
That's pretty cool! What a great story.
12/30/08 Mike sent me a link to a great video he made on Flash Gordon. I'll let him explain it:
Just posted the first episode of an online series I will be doing called "Guilty Pleasure Movies of the 80's." I'm a retro junkie and love many of the films that came out in that decade. Since I never get asked to be part of "I love the 80's" I decided to do my own show.
FLASH GORDON, one of my all-time favorites, is the first movie discussed.

9/10/07 I tweaked the Dubbing Mystery page to no longer use the Quicktime plugin. Instead, each mp3 clip is just a link. This should play less havoc with Web browsers.
