Now this is odd. I went and saw "Restrepo" earlier this evening and there was an old dude in one of the shuras that I swore looked liked Max Von Sydow as Ming the Merciless. Now this thread pops up. Ming isn't dead. He's in Afghanistan.

I watched that with my dad when it first ran in back in the day. He was excited when he saw that Crabbe was going to be a guest. He would see him in the Flash Gordons serials on saturdays at the movie theater when he was a kid.

You haven't seen anything till you've watched the old serial versions of Buck Rogers made back in the 1930's, they are hilarious!

Give this a try: Buck Rogers radio show

I like to listen to it and riff on it like MST3K did with bad movies.

"Pathetic earthlings. Hurling your bodies out into the void, without the slightest inkling of who or what is out here. If you had known anything about the true nature of the universe, anything at all, you would've hidden from it in terror"

Ming the Merciless was cool as hell
