ok i just watch the pilot for flash gordon . oy . this be bad tv . problem . spoiler ahead not that i think anyone will care . ok so now flash be stephen gordon aka flash because he run marathon and win medal for it . medal he hang on his father grave and medal which be still there 2 year later ( it be the 3rd annual marathon he win in a row ) . dumb on 2 count and obviously the leave the medal and have them stay there for year be dumb but it show that even 13 year after his father die and flash have yet to move on . don not get me wrong it good to honor the memory of lose parent and all and but i think our hero need some counseling . so then we get dimension rip or wormhole or whatever and out step a heavily armor cyborg who be hunt the for something . he able to understand our postal address system well enough to find the gordon house use papa gordon driver license and go hunt for this imex thing ( which i keep think god why do it sound like i max ) . he get the ability to mind control flash mom but lose the fight to a reporter with a power cord and a big meat fork . at this point i figure out the miss thingamabob be in dad old watch the one flash have wear since his dad die and so much for secrecy . our reporter turn out to be smart enough to use power cord to create a dandy electrocution kit without cause massive damage to the house electrical system but doesn not understand the simple premise of a tracking device that beep when point the right direction . gah . so now we track down goofy science guy living in the micro winnebago by look up his college yearbook online . what . they just happen to have the address where he park his van ( down by the river . ) and it available online . ok so now creepy science guy explain that rip hole in the fabric of space time be bad . but make to effort to stop flash and dale from do just that . boom . hi there welcome to mongo . a planet that should be a hotbed of tectonic activity with not just 2 moon but a whole other planet right next door in orbit . mongo be a great place if you be the emperor . you be the hero with the only source of clean water on the planet . everyone else be just there to be serfs i guess . ming be no longer a deviant chinese man who destroy whole world for fun and now hes a tyrant who worry about public opinion and have trouble track down a missing watch on another planet despite the fact that he have the address of where it be locate . cut to torture time with flash and now they be go to map his brain to learn everything he know . but wait just then a woman burst in and save flash by shoot his torturer . great she obviously just a simple palace slave who want to escape . a simple well dress slave with excellent skin tone and makeup and forget that she have access to the torture room . oh and a gun . oh and she know the layout and guard patrol . oh and she know all about the water purification area under the castle ( which for something so massively important to planetary survival have no security or guard ) . she also know how the patrol craft operate and how to use a dimension ripper . flash you idiot . so back home and yay . let rip some more hole . bounty hunter time and another rip and look the bounty hunter be a hottie too . no armor . one gun . ummm yeah and oh and she can drive stick and she can also find people with her vast psychic power too i guess . the same psychic power that let the princess find her way from dale place to flash mother home on pure instinct . i mean bad enough everyone speaks perfect english but they can also find one house out of a city without a map or a learner permit . hey flash the princess be here and shes get a gun and can recognize the i mex immediately and even though it disguise and she doesn not know what a tv remote be or what the i mex look like . i mean she should have at least take his cellphone too just in case it be the i mex . you know if i have lose the sum of all knowledge in the universe i wouldn not wait 13 year to reclaim it . i also wouldn not send 1 guy with dubious combat skill . but thats just me . hey time to rip even more hole . this be a bad thing right . anyway the evil princess get fool into think the i mex be destroy and although your average street magician could have be more convincing and and we find out daddy be alive ( duh ) and be hook up to some computer . maybe the one that map your brain and would have tell the bad guy not only where to locate it but also which pizza place would have deliver to the house while you be there . you know some show have plot hole and some have major one ( professor stop making radio out of coconut and fix the 2 foot hole in the boat ) and some just say we do not actually care enough to hire writer and we just string together a series of scene and call it a pilot and we figure sci fi viewer be dumb enough to watch anythingsigh . i have hop it would be good .
