...The most popular talkie serial was the space adventure fantasy Flash Gordon (1936), starring Buster Crabbe (1907-1983). It was the most expensive serial to make, costing $350,000, about three times the cost of a typical serial, and spawned two sequels in 1938 and 1940. With the Second World War, films with anti-Japanese imagery such as "Drums of Fumanchu" (1940) and the anti-Nazi "Jungle Queen" (1941) were made, and after the war films such as "Superman" (1948) and "Batman and Robin" (1950) were made, but the quality gradually declined and the films continued to get worse and worse. By the mid-1950s they had fallen out of fashion and were used to fill gaps in programming, and the genre eventually moved to television, with Columbia's "Blazing the Overland Trail" (1956) being the last true action series.
