Battle Extraordinaire: Flash Gordon Edition

I've always loved Flash Gordon. Its kitchy and cheesy and schmaltzy. Its supposed to be. For my money the Hawkman attack on the war rocket is well done. Behold:

I think the secret to a great battle sequence is a lot of action. What I mean is a lot of soldiers getting shot and falling. A lot of bodies about, and a lot of movement in the back ground. Supplement this with lasers, explosions and one gets a major assault on the senses.

You get a lot of that here.

One of the aspects of this sequence that I think works really well is the Hawkmen having to establish a foothold on the rocket and then having to blow a hole in the hull and fight their way inside.

Enjoy.
