Queen - Flash Gordon (Full Album)
The soundtrack contains numerous sound-bites from the film. This was a good inclusion because some of the instrumental tracks are rather plain - the voice overs give it a bit of spice. Also the Flash theme is not the same as a the single release version.
Check out this condensed version of the film (a film that pays homage to the design look of the original comic strip):

Dune Trailer (1984)
There's something about Dune that appeals to me, but a lot of people do not go for it.
I think I appreciate various conceptual aspects (the Houses, the fact that intelligent computers are banned, some of the weapon and ship designs) and the 'epic' look to certain scenes (the lighting, the worn look, the vast-scale cinematography), such that I overlook the often talked about flaws of the film (being relatively disjointed and too short to convey the story effectively). I like its difference to other sci-fi films of the 80s.
"The Sleeper has awakened!" Epic - but not for everyone.

Ivanhoe, the son of a Saxon nobleman, returns to England from the Crusades. Prince John is Regent in the absence of his brother, King Richard the Lionhearted who is imprisoned in Austria. Saxons have not accepted their Norman conquerors and there is much animosity between them. Ivanhoe arrives at court just as a jousting tournament begins and bests the three Norman noblemen who have agreed to take on all comers. Ivanhoe is seriously injured however and is cared for by Isaac of York and his beautiful daughter Rebecca. They are taken prisoner however, along with Ivanhoe's father Cedric and his ward Rowena, by the three knights Ivanhoe bested in the tournament. With the assistance of Robin Hood, the mysterious Black Knight attacks the castle of Front-de-Boeuf where the captives are being held. It's left to Ivanhoe to rescue to rescue Rebecca however when she is accused of being a witch.
