00:00:02.350 --> 00:00:05.450
Hi, this is Larry Dottilio, writer for He -Man

00:00:05.450 --> 00:00:07.669
and Beast Wars, and you are listening to the

00:00:07.669 --> 00:00:12.789
Geekcast Radio Network. He -Man and the Masters

00:00:12.789 --> 00:00:17.149
of the Universe! Hello, this is Optimus Solo,

00:00:17.289 --> 00:00:21.489
and welcome to the 124th chapter in our Powers

00:00:21.489 --> 00:00:23.449
of Greyskull series. With me for this journey

00:00:23.449 --> 00:00:25.870
into the Masters of the Universe franchise is

00:00:25.870 --> 00:00:29.149
TFG1 Mike. Hello. Hello. People thought they

00:00:29.149 --> 00:00:31.390
were done with us. We continue to keep going.

00:00:33.810 --> 00:00:36.170
So, long time no talk. Last time we talked, we

00:00:36.170 --> 00:00:42.490
talked about the 2002 He -Man series. Yep. And

00:00:42.490 --> 00:00:43.929
people might have thought we were done, but are

00:00:43.929 --> 00:00:47.750
you ready to return to Eternia, sir? Kind of.

00:00:47.770 --> 00:00:51.570
Sort of. Not really. Ready or not, what are we

00:00:51.570 --> 00:00:53.049
going to be talking about in today's episode?

00:00:53.289 --> 00:00:56.090
There's no more cartoons. For now. There's no

00:00:56.090 --> 00:00:59.329
more cartoons for now. Now, we are transported

00:00:59.329 --> 00:01:07.549
back. 34? Yeah, 34 years ago. Lord, we're old.

00:01:08.430 --> 00:01:14.189
I'm old. 34 years ago, 1987, the live -action

00:01:14.189 --> 00:01:17.250
He -Man and the Masters of the Universe film

00:01:17.250 --> 00:01:20.689
starring Dolph Lundgren, Frank Langella. Thankfully,

00:01:20.769 --> 00:01:22.730
I don't have to actually look at anything to

00:01:22.730 --> 00:01:26.090
remember that, because hello. Directed by Gary

00:01:26.090 --> 00:01:30.640
Goddard, it was released August 7th, 1987. Interesting

00:01:30.640 --> 00:01:35.780
that they did that because that is one year and

00:01:35.780 --> 00:01:39.900
one day before the epic release of August 8th,

00:01:39.900 --> 00:01:45.480
1986 in Transformers, the movie. Interesting.

00:01:46.319 --> 00:01:48.879
So yes, this is going to be our commentary on

00:01:48.879 --> 00:01:51.420
the film. We are actually going to watch the

00:01:51.420 --> 00:01:54.500
film and comment on it as we go along. We will

00:01:54.500 --> 00:01:56.540
be doing a countdown here in a few moments. So

00:01:56.540 --> 00:01:59.739
we are both synced up so we can each watch it

00:01:59.739 --> 00:02:03.579
on our own. So if you have a DVD version or if

00:02:03.579 --> 00:02:05.099
you have the ability to pull it up on whatever

00:02:05.099 --> 00:02:09.900
streaming platform or whatever methods you have,

00:02:10.000 --> 00:02:11.599
this would be the time to get it queued up and

00:02:11.599 --> 00:02:13.699
we'll let you know when to start. Yep, absolutely.

00:02:16.140 --> 00:02:20.159
Uh, so let me ask you, did you, you were six

00:02:20.159 --> 00:02:22.500
years old when this came out? Correct. Did you

00:02:22.500 --> 00:02:25.219
see this in theaters? Did your parents take it?

00:02:25.219 --> 00:02:31.419
You're, uh, you know, I'm 95 % sure that we saw

00:02:31.419 --> 00:02:34.199
this in theaters because I had already seen the

00:02:34.199 --> 00:02:36.620
transformers movie in theaters the year before.

00:02:37.120 --> 00:02:39.719
Um, and I'm pretty sure this was, might've been

00:02:39.719 --> 00:02:41.759
the next film we went to, unless there was some

00:02:41.759 --> 00:02:44.419
type of like animated. thing that we went to.

00:02:44.419 --> 00:02:45.960
We didn't go to a lot of movies, but I, for some

00:02:45.960 --> 00:02:48.419
reason, remember going to this one. Now that

00:02:48.419 --> 00:02:50.139
could be just me remembering wrong. Cause like

00:02:50.139 --> 00:02:52.379
you said, I was six and I don't specifically

00:02:52.379 --> 00:02:55.340
remember it, but for some reason I want to say

00:02:55.340 --> 00:02:58.280
that, yes, I did see this in the theater. I was

00:02:58.280 --> 00:03:01.240
seven and I don't think I saw this in the theater.

00:03:02.460 --> 00:03:08.319
I, I don't know. Right. But I mean, like, and

00:03:08.319 --> 00:03:12.979
again, you know, for me, the first, film i actively

00:03:12.979 --> 00:03:16.960
remember seeing in theaters uh is most likely

00:03:16.960 --> 00:03:20.560
batman 89 or something like that i know i did

00:03:20.560 --> 00:03:23.400
not because again we weren't we went to the theaters

00:03:23.400 --> 00:03:26.000
but we weren't a theater goat we were like you

00:03:26.000 --> 00:03:27.939
know let's just wait till it hits cable wait

00:03:27.939 --> 00:03:30.199
till it hits vhs obviously back then you're waiting

00:03:30.199 --> 00:03:33.259
two or three years versus you know six months

00:03:33.259 --> 00:03:36.300
which is what or you know hell now that the pandemic

00:03:36.300 --> 00:03:38.620
has hit us you know oh hey guess what streaming

00:03:38.620 --> 00:03:43.300
at home yay Which I'm all for that. You know

00:03:43.300 --> 00:03:46.300
what? As much as I respect and love and I've

00:03:46.300 --> 00:03:49.199
had a love for movie theaters for years, for

00:03:49.199 --> 00:03:52.740
my entire life, at this point in my life, I want

00:03:52.740 --> 00:03:56.539
to control my media. I don't want to deal with,

00:03:56.659 --> 00:03:59.560
you know, I just mentioned this in an episode

00:03:59.560 --> 00:04:02.580
of Studio 2009 where Mike the Birdman Dot is

00:04:02.580 --> 00:04:05.039
helping me do 12 Months of Star Wars. We're going

00:04:05.039 --> 00:04:09.259
through every episode of... all nine films of

00:04:09.259 --> 00:04:13.860
the star Wars Skywalker saga thing. And I just

00:04:13.860 --> 00:04:15.919
mentioned this to him. I'm like, I want to control

00:04:15.919 --> 00:04:17.680
the media. I don't want to have to worry about

00:04:17.680 --> 00:04:19.620
going to the bathroom and missing something.

00:04:19.699 --> 00:04:22.379
I can just pause it and be fine. You know? So

00:04:22.379 --> 00:04:25.379
yeah, especially if you have like a theater in

00:04:25.379 --> 00:04:27.500
your basement or something like that, like you

00:04:27.500 --> 00:04:34.860
do. Comes in handy. Yeah, exactly. Exactly. So

00:04:34.860 --> 00:04:38.000
we hope you are ready because it is time to head

00:04:38.000 --> 00:04:44.199
to Eternia in this Masters of the Universe 1987

00:04:44.199 --> 00:04:47.680
film commentary. You're going to hear the trailer

00:04:47.680 --> 00:04:53.360
right here. At the far end of the universe, there

00:04:53.360 --> 00:05:02.089
is a planet ruled by a being of utter evil. And

00:05:02.089 --> 00:05:05.230
there is only one man who dares challenge him.

00:05:06.649 --> 00:05:10.269
They are locked in a battle to the death. A battle

00:05:10.269 --> 00:05:13.670
that will take them across the heavens. A battle

00:05:13.670 --> 00:05:18.769
that will finally be fought. Across the face.

00:05:21.370 --> 00:05:30.509
Of Earth. I think I'm going to need some backup.

00:05:31.819 --> 00:06:02.399
can you show us the way no from a distant galaxy,

00:06:02.699 --> 00:06:06.319
they have come to Earth. Dolph Lundgren as He

00:06:06.319 --> 00:06:10.899
-Man. Frank Langella as Skeletor. Only they have

00:06:10.899 --> 00:06:16.779
the powers to be Masters of the Universe. Live

00:06:16.779 --> 00:06:26.079
the adventure. And now we will do a countdown.

00:06:26.259 --> 00:06:34.250
In 3, 2, 1, play. All right. First up, the company

00:06:34.250 --> 00:06:37.529
logo, Canon. They would not be in business much

00:06:37.529 --> 00:06:41.750
longer. This was one of they were doing this

00:06:41.750 --> 00:06:43.790
and they were doing something else. They had

00:06:43.790 --> 00:06:46.230
plans to do a Spider -Man movie, like a big time,

00:06:46.269 --> 00:06:48.889
big budget Spider -Man movie. And because this

00:06:48.889 --> 00:06:50.889
one and whatever the other film was didn't do

00:06:50.889 --> 00:06:52.430
too well, they never got to do that Spider -Man

00:06:52.430 --> 00:06:56.389
film. So very short lived. You saw Canon first?

00:06:57.970 --> 00:07:00.430
Yeah, mine's going through Gary Goddard and Dolph

00:07:00.430 --> 00:07:02.610
Lundgren and all the names on the screen. We

00:07:02.610 --> 00:07:04.189
probably have two different versions, so we'll

00:07:04.189 --> 00:07:06.889
have to... Yeah, this version that I'm doing

00:07:06.889 --> 00:07:10.449
started out with the MGM logo, and now it's in

00:07:10.449 --> 00:07:13.490
association with... Now I see Gary's name. Okay.

00:07:14.209 --> 00:07:16.009
I'll get you... I'll get caught up with you for

00:07:16.009 --> 00:07:17.970
a second. Because the first thing we're going

00:07:17.970 --> 00:07:23.189
to see is Castle Grayskull. Mm -hmm. Are you

00:07:23.189 --> 00:07:28.250
seeing that yet? Yep, right now. Alright. Interesting

00:07:28.250 --> 00:07:32.310
thing about this set right here, it became the

00:07:32.310 --> 00:07:36.550
biggest set ever used within the last 40 years

00:07:36.550 --> 00:07:39.930
in a movie. They took two sound stages and broke

00:07:39.930 --> 00:07:42.029
the wall in the middle of it down so that it

00:07:42.029 --> 00:07:45.589
was two sound stages combined. So it was a very

00:07:45.589 --> 00:07:48.389
large set for some reason to capture that Castle

00:07:48.389 --> 00:07:52.680
Greyskull. It looks like a very cool design,

00:07:52.800 --> 00:07:56.199
too. Yeah, and the movie poster for this one

00:07:56.199 --> 00:07:59.220
should have signified to everybody right away

00:07:59.220 --> 00:08:01.259
that there was going to be some weird things

00:08:01.259 --> 00:08:05.300
about this film. Because the movie poster has

00:08:05.300 --> 00:08:07.800
Dolph Lundgren as He -Man standing in the middle

00:08:07.800 --> 00:08:10.800
of it, and then it's got the two kids at the

00:08:10.800 --> 00:08:13.019
bottom holding a device, and then it has Skeletor's

00:08:13.019 --> 00:08:15.500
head above it. So you can kind of see right from

00:08:15.500 --> 00:08:17.959
the get -go that it's not going to look like

00:08:17.959 --> 00:08:22.779
the cartoon. No. Now, they stated that they weren't

00:08:22.779 --> 00:08:26.120
trying to base this off of the cartoon. They

00:08:26.120 --> 00:08:27.959
were trying to base this off of the toy line.

00:08:28.720 --> 00:08:31.319
Yeah. So it was not supposed to necessarily look

00:08:31.319 --> 00:08:33.539
hand in hand with what the cartoon did. But I

00:08:33.539 --> 00:08:34.940
think that's one of the things that probably

00:08:34.940 --> 00:08:39.980
was the biggest surprise to viewers, to fans.

00:08:40.320 --> 00:08:42.000
You know, when we're watching the cartoon and

00:08:42.000 --> 00:08:43.279
we're used to how things look and this, that

00:08:43.279 --> 00:08:44.419
and the other. And then you go, you know, you

00:08:44.419 --> 00:08:45.659
know, it's going to be live action. So it's going

00:08:45.659 --> 00:08:47.649
to be a little bit different. when you show up

00:08:47.649 --> 00:08:49.649
and there's so many differences from the cartoon,

00:08:49.789 --> 00:08:51.549
I think it threw a lot of people off. Like, is

00:08:51.549 --> 00:08:53.309
this a He -Man movie or is this just something

00:08:53.309 --> 00:08:56.490
else with the He -Man name? Cause they had good.

00:08:56.570 --> 00:08:59.490
And I swear I read an article or something with

00:08:59.490 --> 00:09:01.750
the director, Gary Goddard, where he was more

00:09:01.750 --> 00:09:04.350
influenced by Jack Kirby's fourth world stuff.

00:09:05.009 --> 00:09:09.789
Yeah. So yeah. Yeah. And I mean, obviously some

00:09:09.789 --> 00:09:14.649
of it is just from a, what was possible at the

00:09:14.649 --> 00:09:17.429
time from a budget standpoint and things like

00:09:17.429 --> 00:09:19.690
that. Like they can't make a flying Orko in this

00:09:19.690 --> 00:09:21.929
movie. They can't make, you know, battle cat

00:09:21.929 --> 00:09:24.230
and cranger. It's not, you know, it took us until

00:09:24.230 --> 00:09:25.830
just a couple of years ago to do that type of

00:09:25.830 --> 00:09:29.570
stuff. So, but we're seeing that it's interesting

00:09:29.570 --> 00:09:32.690
too, that the film starts off with, with Skeletor

00:09:32.690 --> 00:09:37.629
and we're on Eternia. So you don't get a lot

00:09:37.629 --> 00:09:39.789
of Eternia in this movie, but we start here and

00:09:39.789 --> 00:09:43.389
I think this is a great setup. Yeah, this is

00:09:43.389 --> 00:09:48.110
an amazing scene. Regardless of how you feel,

00:09:48.230 --> 00:09:51.269
the Black Stormtroopers, which we do get a lot

00:09:51.269 --> 00:09:54.529
of robots almost reminiscent of Hordak's Horde

00:09:54.529 --> 00:09:57.409
robots, which we wouldn't see normally in a He

00:09:57.409 --> 00:10:01.649
-Man universe because you get the evil warriors,

00:10:01.789 --> 00:10:03.450
you don't get robots, but they were forced to

00:10:03.450 --> 00:10:09.240
do that because of Mattel. who basically gave

00:10:09.240 --> 00:10:11.460
them a directive that He -Man or any of the good

00:10:11.460 --> 00:10:15.120
characters could not kill anybody. You know,

00:10:16.100 --> 00:10:18.840
it's coming off the heels of Optimus Prime dying

00:10:18.840 --> 00:10:21.820
and Duke being put in a coma, and now you can't

00:10:21.820 --> 00:10:24.620
kill anybody. Holy crap, look at Skeletor. Yeah,

00:10:24.659 --> 00:10:26.379
Skeletor is amazing in this film. Regardless

00:10:26.379 --> 00:10:28.039
of how you feel about any of the other characters

00:10:28.039 --> 00:10:29.340
and the looks and this, that, and the other,

00:10:29.379 --> 00:10:33.230
I think Skeletor was perfect. And Frank Langella

00:10:33.230 --> 00:10:35.389
was great. It was nice to see somebody that was

00:10:35.389 --> 00:10:37.309
actually excited about the role and who didn't

00:10:37.309 --> 00:10:40.750
try to shit on it later. Yeah, exactly. Dolph

00:10:40.750 --> 00:10:44.309
Lundgren cannot say the same thing. He was kind

00:10:44.309 --> 00:10:46.669
of mean after the fact about this and acting

00:10:46.669 --> 00:10:48.429
like it was beneath him. And I liked that Langella

00:10:48.429 --> 00:10:51.929
was mature enough to be like, you know what?

00:10:52.129 --> 00:10:55.190
I'm not so proud that I can't do a fun kids movie.

00:10:55.250 --> 00:10:57.350
He did it for his son, who was a big He -Man

00:10:57.350 --> 00:11:00.990
fan. It's interesting, too, that we get to see

00:11:00.990 --> 00:11:04.240
the sorceress. Basically, captured right off

00:11:04.240 --> 00:11:07.899
the bat. Right. Skeletor has already won. Right.

00:11:08.159 --> 00:11:13.500
So, Sorceress is being held captive by Skeletor,

00:11:13.500 --> 00:11:15.759
which is an interesting way to start. It kind

00:11:15.759 --> 00:11:17.340
of gets us right off the bat, like, oh, shoot,

00:11:17.419 --> 00:11:23.620
what's going on here? Yeah. I do not. I do not

00:11:23.620 --> 00:11:26.460
like her design. No, I'm not a huge fan of hers

00:11:26.460 --> 00:11:27.899
either. They took away most of the color and

00:11:27.899 --> 00:11:30.700
made it all white, crystalline, and see -through

00:11:30.700 --> 00:11:33.639
type stuff. I was more of a fan of the rainbow,

00:11:33.860 --> 00:11:35.740
not the rainbow, but the multicolor thing that

00:11:35.740 --> 00:11:39.779
we get. Blue, orange, and white. Absolutely.

00:11:41.159 --> 00:11:43.700
The Sorceress is played by Christina Pickles,

00:11:43.820 --> 00:11:48.080
who interestingly plays the mother of Courtney

00:11:48.080 --> 00:11:51.820
Cox on Friends later on in life. Courtney Cox

00:11:51.820 --> 00:11:53.440
obviously appears in this movie as well. We have

00:11:53.440 --> 00:11:57.080
Skeletor doing like a holographic vision to He

00:11:57.080 --> 00:11:58.539
-Man. That's the first time we get to see He

00:11:58.539 --> 00:12:01.580
-Man. Interesting part about He -Man, I don't

00:12:01.580 --> 00:12:03.759
mind the outfit. I don't mind the look of him.

00:12:03.820 --> 00:12:05.440
I think Dolph Lundgren at the time was a good

00:12:05.440 --> 00:12:09.480
choice to play him. But interesting that we will

00:12:09.480 --> 00:12:12.700
see no Prince Adam in this movie. Yeah, no, he's

00:12:12.700 --> 00:12:16.279
He -Man the whole time. And again, I've said

00:12:16.279 --> 00:12:18.879
this before. I said this recently with the cartoons.

00:12:19.730 --> 00:12:22.669
Sadly, the 2002 series only got 39 episodes.

00:12:23.230 --> 00:12:26.029
And back in the day, we were only worried about

00:12:26.029 --> 00:12:29.090
episode by episode. We weren't worried about

00:12:29.090 --> 00:12:32.049
overall continuity in the 80s. They were doing

00:12:32.049 --> 00:12:36.350
single stories. Comics is where they can flush

00:12:36.350 --> 00:12:39.330
all that out. It really, really is. And they

00:12:39.330 --> 00:12:42.590
have. DC has done an amazing job doing various

00:12:42.590 --> 00:12:45.190
Masters of the Universe comics for a while now.

00:12:48.429 --> 00:12:50.389
I think the only thing I don't like about He

00:12:50.389 --> 00:12:54.649
-Man in this is the power sword looks very wimpy.

00:12:55.009 --> 00:12:57.590
And he's also shooting people. Yeah, I don't

00:12:57.590 --> 00:12:59.370
like that either. Which he never did, really.

00:12:59.809 --> 00:13:02.250
It's interesting that we take one of the main

00:13:02.250 --> 00:13:03.809
things about He -Man, which is the transformation

00:13:03.809 --> 00:13:06.129
from Adam to He -Man, back and forth, and we

00:13:06.129 --> 00:13:07.490
just eliminate that from this whole show. We

00:13:07.490 --> 00:13:11.899
get to see Man -at -Arms and Teela. in this sequence,

00:13:12.159 --> 00:13:14.039
which obviously they have a different look. Man

00:13:14.039 --> 00:13:15.519
-at -Arms, I mean, he's kind of close. He's still

00:13:15.519 --> 00:13:16.899
got the helmet. He's still got some of the armor

00:13:16.899 --> 00:13:20.639
and stuff like that. Yeah, so he looks close.

00:13:20.840 --> 00:13:22.559
Teela doesn't really look at all like Teela.

00:13:22.799 --> 00:13:25.039
I like this version better than the cartoon version,

00:13:25.259 --> 00:13:29.960
honestly. I don't know. Maybe it's just the actress,

00:13:30.059 --> 00:13:33.039
but she doesn't come off as bitchy as Teela does

00:13:33.039 --> 00:13:34.500
in a lot of things. The other interesting thing

00:13:34.500 --> 00:13:37.600
about Dolph Lundgren, who's playing He -Man right

00:13:37.600 --> 00:13:40.649
here, is that obviously he's a Swedish actor,

00:13:40.889 --> 00:13:46.370
and they were very worried about his voice. Oh,

00:13:46.370 --> 00:13:48.909
yes. The original plan was to not have his voice

00:13:48.909 --> 00:13:52.110
be featured at all. He was supposed to be physically

00:13:52.110 --> 00:13:54.350
the character, and then once they were done,

00:13:54.429 --> 00:13:56.169
they were going to re -dub his voice with somebody

00:13:56.169 --> 00:13:59.610
that sounded more with less of an accent that

00:13:59.610 --> 00:14:02.690
could have come off more, I guess, English or

00:14:02.690 --> 00:14:06.250
American, maybe. 1987, you know what they could

00:14:06.250 --> 00:14:08.500
have done. Yeah, they could have done a voice

00:14:08.500 --> 00:14:11.759
actor. They could have just had John Irwin gone

00:14:11.759 --> 00:14:14.500
into a booth and read the lines. Because I think

00:14:14.500 --> 00:14:17.279
if John Irwin, if they went that route and John

00:14:17.279 --> 00:14:20.179
Irwin was, let's say Gildor for the first time

00:14:20.179 --> 00:14:23.320
here, you know, if John Irwin was the voice,

00:14:23.440 --> 00:14:25.200
I think a lot of people would have liked this

00:14:25.200 --> 00:14:29.240
more at the time. Right. Absolutely. And it was

00:14:29.240 --> 00:14:30.580
just another one of those things that came down

00:14:30.580 --> 00:14:33.720
to budgets. Like they weren't able to have the

00:14:33.720 --> 00:14:35.639
time to re -dub his lines. So Dolph Lundgren's

00:14:35.639 --> 00:14:37.669
voice remained in there. even if it comes off

00:14:37.669 --> 00:14:39.330
as obviously being a little bit different from

00:14:39.330 --> 00:14:42.610
everybody else's. So, um, John, John Cypher is

00:14:42.610 --> 00:14:44.929
playing man at arms there. I believe it's Chelsea

00:14:44.929 --> 00:14:47.710
field who's playing Tila. And then we get Gwildor

00:14:47.710 --> 00:14:52.090
who is Billy Barty. Yep. Um, and obviously Gwildor

00:14:52.090 --> 00:14:56.669
is there instead of Orko. That is, that is specifically

00:14:56.669 --> 00:14:59.029
like that was a choice. That's not just like

00:14:59.029 --> 00:15:00.789
another random character. That is a character

00:15:00.789 --> 00:15:03.730
that is mainly supposed to almost be taking Orko's

00:15:03.730 --> 00:15:08.159
role. Yeah. But they couldn't do Orko. He's very,

00:15:08.159 --> 00:15:14.539
he's very yogurt in my mind watching this again.

00:15:14.919 --> 00:15:19.179
He's very, just the size of the character, the

00:15:19.179 --> 00:15:22.960
character design. It's very Mel Brooks, baseballs,

00:15:22.960 --> 00:15:27.259
yogurt. And by far, this was my favorite part

00:15:27.259 --> 00:15:30.850
of this film is the cosmic key. I always wanted

00:15:30.850 --> 00:15:34.090
the cosmic key tones. I always wanted that stuff.

00:15:34.230 --> 00:15:37.590
Right. Right. Oh, apparently there was like four

00:15:37.590 --> 00:15:40.149
versions of the cosmic key that they had on set

00:15:40.149 --> 00:15:43.629
as far as props go. Cool. Um, and I guess it

00:15:43.629 --> 00:15:46.450
was so fragile and so easily broken that they

00:15:46.450 --> 00:15:49.730
just had to like have people on hand at all times

00:15:49.730 --> 00:15:51.309
to put it back together every time it broke.

00:15:52.330 --> 00:15:54.210
But I guess it was hard to keep together because

00:15:54.210 --> 00:15:55.710
of all the different parts and how it kind of

00:15:55.710 --> 00:15:57.570
like expands and different stuff like that. And

00:15:57.570 --> 00:16:02.550
then we get to see, obviously right here. Interesting

00:16:02.550 --> 00:16:06.570
setup here. Obviously, we're seeing Eternia here

00:16:06.570 --> 00:16:08.429
at the beginning of the film. We're going to

00:16:08.429 --> 00:16:10.330
see the whole middle of the film all take place

00:16:10.330 --> 00:16:13.610
on Earth, and then we'll see Eternia pop up again

00:16:13.610 --> 00:16:17.330
at the end of the movie. That was another cost

00:16:17.330 --> 00:16:19.629
-cutting way for them to save some money is to

00:16:19.629 --> 00:16:21.169
do most things at Earth so they didn't have to

00:16:21.169 --> 00:16:24.950
come up with otherworldly sets. Outside of the

00:16:24.950 --> 00:16:26.590
few they did, obviously, with Castle Grayskull

00:16:26.590 --> 00:16:28.629
there at the beginning and where we're at right

00:16:28.629 --> 00:16:33.190
now. Master Universe did not do very well at

00:16:33.190 --> 00:16:36.289
the box office. No, it did not. It had a budget

00:16:36.289 --> 00:16:40.250
of about $22 million and brought in about $17

00:16:40.250 --> 00:16:43.289
million. That's not counting all the other stuff

00:16:43.289 --> 00:16:45.090
that goes along with making a movie and stuff

00:16:45.090 --> 00:16:47.769
like that. You can say it became a cult favorite

00:16:47.769 --> 00:16:50.190
afterwards on VHS, DVD, whatever you want to

00:16:50.190 --> 00:16:54.440
say, but box office, not so great. It had a 17

00:16:54.440 --> 00:16:58.659
% at Rotten Tomatoes. So, it's not a great score,

00:16:58.820 --> 00:17:05.259
obviously. Continuing to see, obviously, Man

00:17:05.259 --> 00:17:08.019
-at -Arms, Teela, and He -Man meeting Gwildor,

00:17:08.059 --> 00:17:10.740
talking to Gwildor, finding out about what's

00:17:10.740 --> 00:17:12.440
going to set up the rest of the movie, basically.

00:17:17.819 --> 00:17:20.200
We got our first introduction to some more of

00:17:20.200 --> 00:17:23.759
the evil characters. And this is where it kind

00:17:23.759 --> 00:17:25.500
of goes. Up to this point, we've seen Skeletor,

00:17:25.559 --> 00:17:27.000
we've seen the Sorceress, we've seen He -Man,

00:17:27.180 --> 00:17:29.940
Man -at -Arms, Teela. Yes, we've been introduced

00:17:29.940 --> 00:17:31.640
to Gwildor, but you could be like, well, that's

00:17:31.640 --> 00:17:33.799
just for this movie type thing. It's not until

00:17:33.799 --> 00:17:35.559
they start introducing the evil warriors that

00:17:35.559 --> 00:17:37.299
you're like, wait, what's going on here? Because

00:17:37.299 --> 00:17:41.619
these aren't characters that we're used to. Yeah.

00:17:42.160 --> 00:17:46.880
I was not used to Blade or Karg and all that.

00:17:48.349 --> 00:17:52.529
The only one that is from the series outside

00:17:52.529 --> 00:17:56.109
of Evil Lynn is Beastman. Nobody else exists

00:17:56.109 --> 00:17:59.970
from the cartoon that we're used to. And of course

00:17:59.970 --> 00:18:02.490
we get robots like stormtroopers everywhere.

00:18:03.890 --> 00:18:09.289
So obviously Skeletor and his minions have taken

00:18:09.289 --> 00:18:11.789
over much of Eternia and basically claimed victory.

00:18:11.930 --> 00:18:14.470
They got the sorcerers captured. He -Man, Man

00:18:14.470 --> 00:18:17.029
-at -Arms, and Teela are basically almost...

00:18:17.309 --> 00:18:20.650
stealth mission. It's reminiscent to Star Wars

00:18:20.650 --> 00:18:25.170
at times when they're at Naboo trying to sneak

00:18:25.170 --> 00:18:28.109
around because they've been captured and whatnot.

00:18:28.309 --> 00:18:29.769
Similar to that, where they're trying to go in

00:18:29.769 --> 00:18:31.710
and out the windows or different doorways and

00:18:31.710 --> 00:18:33.930
things like that. Hey, at least this thing weren't

00:18:33.930 --> 00:18:36.549
trying to scale up the window. Oh, God, I hated

00:18:36.549 --> 00:18:40.609
that. That scene in the movie. Got the Olympic

00:18:40.609 --> 00:18:44.450
flame back there on fire there. The everlasting

00:18:44.450 --> 00:18:46.789
flame. Pretty sure that's the same one from the

00:18:46.789 --> 00:18:54.390
Olympics. No, I'm just kidding. Oh, Lord. I agree

00:18:54.390 --> 00:18:56.210
with you. I don't care for the sorceress in this.

00:18:59.450 --> 00:19:02.930
She looks like a Christmas tree. She looks like

00:19:02.930 --> 00:19:05.849
a really, really poorly lit Christmas tree is

00:19:05.849 --> 00:19:10.849
what she looks like. Yeah. Like, I'm pretty sure

00:19:10.849 --> 00:19:13.680
you can buy her crown and... put it on a Christmas

00:19:13.680 --> 00:19:16.339
tree and it would be the same purpose. Probably,

00:19:16.339 --> 00:19:20.539
most likely. They said they designed Castle Grayskull

00:19:20.539 --> 00:19:25.160
as kind of like the house of all power in Eternia

00:19:25.160 --> 00:19:28.599
without trying to designate whether it was good

00:19:28.599 --> 00:19:31.380
power or bad power. So as we get to see different

00:19:31.380 --> 00:19:33.779
parts of Castle Grayskull, you'll see that one

00:19:33.779 --> 00:19:37.740
level is more dedicated to good and then the

00:19:37.740 --> 00:19:40.660
other level has a lot more evil aspects because

00:19:41.339 --> 00:19:43.119
They were kind of saying, you know, evil or the

00:19:43.119 --> 00:19:45.119
power doesn't know good or evil. It's just exists.

00:19:45.380 --> 00:19:47.759
So that's why we get kind of a gray skull that

00:19:47.759 --> 00:19:50.460
has multi dimensions to it. It looks differently.

00:19:53.099 --> 00:19:57.519
And obviously we get the appearance now of Evelyn

00:19:57.519 --> 00:20:05.160
and Skeletor back to confront. Yup. Evelyn's

00:20:05.160 --> 00:20:11.200
crazy. She's played by. um meg foster i believe

00:20:11.200 --> 00:20:18.359
yep um and her eyes are very evil looking and

00:20:18.359 --> 00:20:21.579
it's 100 natural like she has these crazy eyes

00:20:21.579 --> 00:20:24.339
in real life that like look like they're a science

00:20:24.339 --> 00:20:27.819
fiction like effect but it's just her eyes i

00:20:27.819 --> 00:20:29.539
guess a lot of people thought for years that

00:20:29.539 --> 00:20:31.019
like she was using some type of weird contacts

00:20:31.019 --> 00:20:33.900
in this movie to make her look like more evil

00:20:33.900 --> 00:20:36.180
and more like sci -fi ish but those are her natural

00:20:36.180 --> 00:20:39.210
eyes So when you get a chance to see them, definitely

00:20:39.210 --> 00:20:44.269
look at that. It's kind of interesting. And I

00:20:44.269 --> 00:20:46.549
guess her costume was so heavy. I want to say

00:20:46.549 --> 00:20:48.670
it was like 50 pounds or 45 pounds or something

00:20:48.670 --> 00:20:52.630
like that. And I guess it like left bruises like

00:20:52.630 --> 00:20:55.049
on her legs and her groin area and stuff like

00:20:55.049 --> 00:20:58.329
that. Yeah. After she would have to wear it.

00:20:59.529 --> 00:21:02.430
But she said it helped her kind of like stay

00:21:02.430 --> 00:21:04.849
in character because she was so restricted in

00:21:04.849 --> 00:21:08.259
her movements. And if you watch the movie, I'm

00:21:08.259 --> 00:21:09.400
going to have to watch carefully this time as

00:21:09.400 --> 00:21:10.740
we're watching the movie because I read online

00:21:10.740 --> 00:21:12.859
that you're never going to see her sit because

00:21:12.859 --> 00:21:17.180
of her outfit. I don't think she has the capability

00:21:17.180 --> 00:21:20.980
of sitting down while wearing it. That wouldn't

00:21:20.980 --> 00:21:26.859
surprise me. She's not the only one. Pansmar

00:21:26.859 --> 00:21:30.599
is the name of one of the other guys. I want

00:21:30.599 --> 00:21:33.960
to say it's Saurad, one of the other evil warriors.

00:21:34.079 --> 00:21:38.329
You'll never see him sit either. So some of these

00:21:38.329 --> 00:21:42.410
costumes are very restrictive. Oh, I don't doubt

00:21:42.410 --> 00:21:47.089
it. Most costumes in the 80s films were very

00:21:47.089 --> 00:21:50.990
restrictive. I mean, you know, again, briefly,

00:21:51.009 --> 00:21:54.910
because we just released the Batman 89. Well,

00:21:55.130 --> 00:22:02.869
we will release Batman 89 for Studio 2009. Yeah.

00:22:05.170 --> 00:22:08.869
Keaton's first costume. you know, restrictive.

00:22:09.069 --> 00:22:10.950
I mean, you can even, you can even see it on

00:22:10.950 --> 00:22:12.769
Evelyn. That is just a massive piece of metal

00:22:12.769 --> 00:22:15.450
that she's wearing from basically her whole torso,

00:22:15.450 --> 00:22:20.650
chest, stomach, you know, groin area. Yep. So

00:22:20.650 --> 00:22:22.589
this is where we're going to be leaving the Eternia

00:22:22.589 --> 00:22:25.509
here shortly. So take in whatever you want to

00:22:25.509 --> 00:22:27.029
from the visuals here, cause you're not going

00:22:27.029 --> 00:22:31.089
to get to see much more of it. No. Till the end.

00:22:31.410 --> 00:22:36.900
Yeah. Jump through the, uh, The time corridor?

00:22:37.339 --> 00:22:42.279
The corridor here. The time corridor. This is

00:22:42.279 --> 00:22:43.539
like one of the first times where it's looking

00:22:43.539 --> 00:22:45.880
a little cheesy. Obviously, you're going to have

00:22:45.880 --> 00:22:49.680
the laser beams being shot that look obviously

00:22:49.680 --> 00:22:52.079
very 80s -ish, Star Wars -ish, but then when

00:22:52.079 --> 00:22:53.440
we have these people flying through the time

00:22:53.440 --> 00:22:56.859
corridor, it's like, okay, we'll just suspend

00:22:56.859 --> 00:23:00.500
reality for a little while here while we watch

00:23:00.500 --> 00:23:04.630
this. Yep. I did like the effect where they shoot

00:23:04.630 --> 00:23:07.829
the grapple back. Yeah, that was good. And grab

00:23:07.829 --> 00:23:11.009
the cosmic key. And frankly, it's just so good

00:23:11.009 --> 00:23:14.569
with Skeletor. He is his voice, his mannerisms,

00:23:14.569 --> 00:23:16.849
the way he's moving. I don't know what kind of

00:23:16.849 --> 00:23:20.250
stuff he has on his costume besides, you know,

00:23:20.250 --> 00:23:23.509
the robe and the whatever else. But I don't know.

00:23:23.569 --> 00:23:26.390
I mean, he looks like he's moving fairly fine

00:23:26.390 --> 00:23:28.930
and he looks like he's fine in that skull mask.

00:23:29.289 --> 00:23:34.700
Yeah, I could be completely. I didn't read anything

00:23:34.700 --> 00:23:36.759
about him having any costume problems, really.

00:23:39.299 --> 00:23:42.000
It was mainly some of the other characters that

00:23:42.000 --> 00:23:45.160
did. Oh, here they're flying back in, looking

00:23:45.160 --> 00:23:52.220
ridiculous. And now we're on Earth. Yep. The

00:23:52.220 --> 00:23:55.819
bulldog can't swim, apparently. So this is like

00:23:55.819 --> 00:23:59.000
one of those fish -out -of -water type situations.

00:24:00.380 --> 00:24:02.599
Where we have all these characters on Earth and

00:24:02.599 --> 00:24:03.980
they know nothing about the customs. They're

00:24:03.980 --> 00:24:05.859
walking around in the medieval garb with swords

00:24:05.859 --> 00:24:13.039
and shit. It's funny. Gwildor definitely can't

00:24:13.039 --> 00:24:19.140
swim. Interesting, too, that we didn't get to

00:24:19.140 --> 00:24:21.299
see any other... They kept it very limited as

00:24:21.299 --> 00:24:23.019
far as the Masters that we see. The whole movie

00:24:23.019 --> 00:24:24.539
is titled Masters of the Universe, but we get

00:24:24.539 --> 00:24:29.509
to see three of them. Yeah. I mean, technically

00:24:29.509 --> 00:24:31.450
four if you count the sorceress, but she was

00:24:31.450 --> 00:24:35.910
never really... I mean, but yeah. I get that

00:24:35.910 --> 00:24:37.450
you're not going to be able to do Stratos and

00:24:37.450 --> 00:24:41.710
anybody that's flying, that nature. And a lot

00:24:41.710 --> 00:24:44.990
of the other masters had different gimmicky type

00:24:44.990 --> 00:24:46.670
things, like you're not going to have mechanic,

00:24:47.009 --> 00:24:49.170
can't do the neck thing, you're not going to

00:24:49.170 --> 00:24:50.730
have mani faces, probably too hard to do the

00:24:50.730 --> 00:24:54.049
face thing. Ramman you could probably have, but

00:24:54.049 --> 00:24:57.019
he would never be able to ram anything. He would,

00:24:57.119 --> 00:25:00.339
but it would just like his, yeah, his design,

00:25:00.400 --> 00:25:02.859
you would have to basically just copy the filmmation

00:25:02.859 --> 00:25:07.859
design and just have him run into stuff. It wouldn't,

00:25:07.859 --> 00:25:10.240
there would be no effect. There would be no bounce

00:25:10.240 --> 00:25:12.880
bounce, which is crazy because look what star

00:25:12.880 --> 00:25:17.559
Wars did almost 10 years before this. Right.

00:25:17.619 --> 00:25:19.859
You know, I mean, star Wars did a whole lot of

00:25:19.859 --> 00:25:23.380
stuff, even though it doesn't in the grand scheme

00:25:23.380 --> 00:25:28.759
of things nowadays. Star Wars, there's much more

00:25:28.759 --> 00:25:32.720
technology now, but compare this to that. Star

00:25:32.720 --> 00:25:34.619
Wars did a hell of a lot more than what this

00:25:34.619 --> 00:25:40.180
movie did. Absolutely. So since they're trying

00:25:40.180 --> 00:25:42.660
to track the key and whatever else, and they

00:25:42.660 --> 00:25:44.220
haven't found it yet, I want to bring up the

00:25:44.220 --> 00:25:47.099
fact that La La Land Records in 2012 released

00:25:47.099 --> 00:25:52.299
a two -disc score for this film. And sadly, it's

00:25:52.299 --> 00:25:55.349
now out of print. There's one, one copy available

00:25:55.349 --> 00:26:01.930
on Amazon for $50. Now, normally low line record

00:26:01.930 --> 00:26:07.089
stuff ranges between 20 and depending on what,

00:26:07.130 --> 00:26:10.230
like, I mean, a lethal weapon for, you know,

00:26:10.250 --> 00:26:12.450
a lethal weapon for CD, you know, kind of, you

00:26:12.450 --> 00:26:14.789
know, all four film kind of thing. That's going

00:26:14.789 --> 00:26:16.490
to go for like a hundred bucks. But this thing.

00:26:17.940 --> 00:26:22.000
I wish I had it because it says on CD to cosmic

00:26:22.000 --> 00:26:26.759
key music, 14 seconds. I'm like, Oh damn you.

00:26:27.720 --> 00:26:30.339
And I'm sure I can find it on YouTube or whatever,

00:26:30.460 --> 00:26:34.799
but it just, I need the music, man. Right. You

00:26:34.799 --> 00:26:37.359
know, you were talking about a Skeletor's costume

00:26:37.359 --> 00:26:39.640
and mask and different things like that. I didn't

00:26:39.640 --> 00:26:41.019
find anything that said that it was necessarily

00:26:41.019 --> 00:26:43.279
hard for him to wear. I did find an interesting

00:26:43.279 --> 00:26:45.339
piece of trivia though, that Skeletor's mask

00:26:45.339 --> 00:26:48.799
found new life. after this movie and appeared

00:26:48.799 --> 00:26:51.359
on the sets of Star Trek The Next Generation

00:26:51.359 --> 00:26:55.539
in 1987 and Star Trek Deep Space Nine 1993 as

00:26:55.539 --> 00:26:58.880
the face of a skull -faced alien that Lieutenant

00:26:58.880 --> 00:27:02.380
Worf often fights on the holodeck. So now I'm

00:27:02.380 --> 00:27:04.359
going to have to find those episodes and find

00:27:04.359 --> 00:27:06.859
Skeletor's mask in that. But we got our first

00:27:06.859 --> 00:27:09.420
look at one of the main humans that we're going

00:27:09.420 --> 00:27:10.799
to be following throughout the rest of this,

00:27:10.880 --> 00:27:12.940
which is, of course, none other than the main

00:27:12.940 --> 00:27:15.599
first appearance of Courtney Cox to the world.

00:27:16.039 --> 00:27:19.259
Yep. So the future friends star scream star,

00:27:19.339 --> 00:27:21.759
whatever else you want to say, basically got

00:27:21.759 --> 00:27:26.200
her first big movie here. Ace Ventura. Yeah.

00:27:26.839 --> 00:27:30.660
This is probably the, this is the most I could

00:27:30.660 --> 00:27:32.079
put up with her because after this, I really

00:27:32.079 --> 00:27:36.339
didn't care for her and anything else. It's funny.

00:27:36.460 --> 00:27:40.579
I don't mind her as, as Melissa in, in Ace Ventura.

00:27:40.740 --> 00:27:45.660
She's the publicist or whatever she is. She could

00:27:45.660 --> 00:27:47.680
have been a decent April O 'Neil or somebody

00:27:47.680 --> 00:27:50.000
like that, but I just did not like her on Friends.

00:27:51.259 --> 00:27:54.559
I don't like Friends in general. I don't like

00:27:54.559 --> 00:27:57.980
that. I've never liked Friends. Ever since the

00:27:57.980 --> 00:28:01.480
90s, ever since I was a kid in the 90s, I always

00:28:01.480 --> 00:28:04.299
found Seinfeld funnier. The only thing I really

00:28:04.299 --> 00:28:06.319
ever referenced Friends for is, oh, they went

00:28:06.319 --> 00:28:09.279
to a Hootie and the Blowfish concert. Cool. I

00:28:09.279 --> 00:28:11.119
like a lot of the other characters. I just didn't

00:28:11.119 --> 00:28:13.119
care for her. This is Robbie's Ribs and Chicken.

00:28:13.779 --> 00:28:18.500
This restaurant here, that location is randomly

00:28:18.500 --> 00:28:20.299
and kind of weirdly, that is the place where

00:28:20.299 --> 00:28:22.279
Rodney King gets beat up in a couple years after

00:28:22.279 --> 00:28:25.900
this. Yeah, that was where that happened, where

00:28:25.900 --> 00:28:29.519
he got abused. So it just happens to be in the

00:28:29.519 --> 00:28:31.099
same building that was repurposed, obviously,

00:28:31.140 --> 00:28:34.960
for something else. And then we get her boyfriend.

00:28:36.000 --> 00:28:39.819
Kevin. You had to say his name, didn't you? Well,

00:28:40.539 --> 00:28:44.309
his name is your name now. It's Kevin Corrigan

00:28:44.309 --> 00:28:51.490
played by Robert Duncan McNeil. He was also in

00:28:51.490 --> 00:28:55.230
a Star Trek Voyager. It was one of his best known

00:28:55.230 --> 00:28:58.849
roles. Lieutenant Tom Harris. Interesting. For

00:28:58.849 --> 00:29:00.470
anybody that's a Star Trek fan, that's where

00:29:00.470 --> 00:29:04.470
you would mainly see him later on in life. We

00:29:04.470 --> 00:29:07.549
get the interesting aspects. Obviously, if you're

00:29:07.549 --> 00:29:09.009
listening to this with audio, you'd be picking

00:29:09.009 --> 00:29:11.069
up a lot of the... kind of the fish out of water

00:29:11.069 --> 00:29:12.410
stuff that we were talking about before, where

00:29:12.410 --> 00:29:14.710
they're coming across things that are not familiar

00:29:14.710 --> 00:29:17.769
to them. Like we already saw the cow and we're

00:29:17.769 --> 00:29:19.049
going to see, you know, different things like

00:29:19.049 --> 00:29:20.710
that, where they're just like, they don't quite

00:29:20.710 --> 00:29:23.470
understand what it is, what to do about it, how

00:29:23.470 --> 00:29:33.829
to act, things like that. Dolph Lundgren, like

00:29:33.829 --> 00:29:38.289
I was talking about before, said that working

00:29:38.289 --> 00:29:41.240
on this film was a nightmare. He said the shooting

00:29:41.240 --> 00:29:42.980
schedule was five months, including two months

00:29:42.980 --> 00:29:45.160
of night shooting. He said he was approached

00:29:45.160 --> 00:29:47.339
to do a sequel during the shooting and turn down

00:29:47.339 --> 00:29:51.059
the offer. Because there was a sequel that was

00:29:51.059 --> 00:29:52.920
going to be made if this movie would have done

00:29:52.920 --> 00:29:57.160
better. Oh, wow. He did later tell in a website

00:29:57.160 --> 00:30:01.359
interview of some sorts. It was when he was getting

00:30:01.359 --> 00:30:03.920
ready for the release of The Expendables in 2010.

00:30:04.839 --> 00:30:07.200
He did mention that he would return to appear

00:30:07.200 --> 00:30:09.400
in a new Masters of the Universe movie as either

00:30:09.400 --> 00:30:11.980
a cameo or He -Man, whatever he was able to pull

00:30:11.980 --> 00:30:14.720
off. Obviously, he couldn't have pulled off He

00:30:14.720 --> 00:30:17.299
-Man at that point in his life. He could have

00:30:17.299 --> 00:30:21.940
pulled off an old He -Man, and honestly, since

00:30:21.940 --> 00:30:24.160
we're talking about him, since Wildor's trying

00:30:24.160 --> 00:30:25.859
to figure out the chicken and whatever else,

00:30:26.059 --> 00:30:31.299
you know, Ever since The Expendables, I have

00:30:31.299 --> 00:30:34.440
a new respect for Dolph as an older actor now.

00:30:35.440 --> 00:30:38.720
And I really think he could pull off an old He

00:30:38.720 --> 00:30:41.680
-Man or, hell, even a King Greyskull or something

00:30:41.680 --> 00:30:44.519
like that. I feel like Gwildor could have pulled

00:30:44.519 --> 00:30:47.259
off appearing in the Lord of the Rings franchise.

00:30:49.299 --> 00:30:54.019
Isn't this like pre -Hobbit? I mean, he'd fit

00:30:54.019 --> 00:30:57.200
in with all the other dwarves and whatnot. He

00:30:57.200 --> 00:31:03.579
would have fit right in. Not some of them, not

00:31:03.579 --> 00:31:06.220
too much of a fan. Tila is not a fan of the chicken

00:31:06.220 --> 00:31:11.460
wing. No. Gwildor and Man at Arms doing a little

00:31:11.460 --> 00:31:16.440
better with it. Yeah. But yeah, we'll, we'll

00:31:16.440 --> 00:31:18.259
talk about it a little bit more later, but there

00:31:18.259 --> 00:31:20.839
is a lot of information out there. Not a lot

00:31:20.839 --> 00:31:22.079
of, I shouldn't say a lot of information, but

00:31:22.079 --> 00:31:25.579
a lot of sites that are addressing the fact that

00:31:25.579 --> 00:31:29.460
there was going to be a sequel. I got to say,

00:31:29.500 --> 00:31:31.920
after hearing the premise of what it was going

00:31:31.920 --> 00:31:34.539
to be like, I'm kind of glad that it didn't happen.

00:31:35.740 --> 00:31:39.559
The main idea here is that it was going to, you

00:31:39.559 --> 00:31:42.740
know, obviously take place years later. And that

00:31:42.740 --> 00:31:46.380
it was going to be, it was going to include She

00:31:46.380 --> 00:31:52.319
-Ra. It was going to include Trap Jaw. And I

00:31:52.319 --> 00:31:55.700
can't remember who else. Somebody else. But it

00:31:55.700 --> 00:31:59.039
was weird because Skeletor was going to be masquerading

00:31:59.039 --> 00:32:05.400
around as an evil, almost like a sports agent,

00:32:05.480 --> 00:32:08.960
but not a sports agent, like a bigwig, like a

00:32:08.960 --> 00:32:12.039
Wall Street -type bigwig or a rich person. And

00:32:12.039 --> 00:32:14.319
He -Man was going to come back and be masquerading

00:32:14.319 --> 00:32:17.619
as a quarterback for a football team or something.

00:32:17.799 --> 00:32:22.240
It sounded so ridiculous. So basically what you're

00:32:22.240 --> 00:32:27.059
saying is, is Rod Tidwell versus Jay Moore. Yeah,

00:32:27.079 --> 00:32:28.700
it was going to be bad. That's what it was going

00:32:28.700 --> 00:32:30.339
to be. Like I would have been fine for seeing

00:32:30.339 --> 00:32:32.079
those other characters, like especially She -Ra

00:32:32.079 --> 00:32:34.819
and whatnot, but I don't want He -Man to be playing

00:32:34.819 --> 00:32:37.819
a quarterback. And I don't want, I don't want

00:32:37.819 --> 00:32:41.940
the evil, like the, you know, executive Skeletor.

00:32:42.599 --> 00:32:47.759
Oh, look, the kids found the cosmic key. Music

00:32:47.759 --> 00:32:54.500
maker. Music maker. What would you do if you

00:32:54.500 --> 00:32:55.759
found something like that and you're holding

00:32:55.759 --> 00:32:57.339
it in your hand and it's lighting up like that?

00:32:58.759 --> 00:33:03.000
Probably put it back where it belongs. Put it

00:33:03.000 --> 00:33:08.720
back in the ground? Yeah. I guarantee I'm not

00:33:08.720 --> 00:33:10.200
going to start hitting buttons, I don't think.

00:33:12.880 --> 00:33:15.779
I'd be afraid that it was going to explode or

00:33:15.779 --> 00:33:18.670
something if I hit something. Well, when we first

00:33:18.670 --> 00:33:20.670
see it in the ground, the giant red light is

00:33:20.670 --> 00:33:22.529
blinking. You'd think that they wouldn't have

00:33:22.529 --> 00:33:24.710
touched it because a giant red light is blinking.

00:33:24.829 --> 00:33:29.130
Don't these kids know? And now Skeletor's giant

00:33:29.130 --> 00:33:33.950
red light is blinking. Trying to track it from

00:33:33.950 --> 00:33:36.150
one to the other. I forgot that we do get to

00:33:36.150 --> 00:33:38.230
come back to Eternia here and there to see Skeletor.

00:33:40.170 --> 00:33:42.210
It's also a funny movie if you try to put all

00:33:42.210 --> 00:33:44.289
the different sci -fi terms and language that

00:33:44.289 --> 00:33:47.640
they throw in it. parsecs and things like that,

00:33:47.700 --> 00:33:50.859
or weird things. Not necessarily He -Man -like,

00:33:50.880 --> 00:33:53.680
but they throw it in there. Yeah. Again, going

00:33:53.680 --> 00:33:56.940
back to Goddard wanting to homage Jack Kirby's

00:33:56.940 --> 00:34:04.460
Fourth World. Yeah. Oh, Van of the 80s. This

00:34:04.460 --> 00:34:08.780
reminds me of Back to the Future. Oh, yeah. It

00:34:08.780 --> 00:34:11.559
almost looks like the same stage. Yeah, like

00:34:11.559 --> 00:34:13.659
they're getting set up for the, what was it?

00:34:16.519 --> 00:34:18.460
Enchantment Under the Sea Dance. Yeah, Enchantment

00:34:18.460 --> 00:34:20.860
Under the Sea Dance, except for we've got a little

00:34:20.860 --> 00:34:24.119
bit different setup here. I really do think it's

00:34:24.119 --> 00:34:25.980
almost the exact same stage, and that would be

00:34:25.980 --> 00:34:31.340
kind of interesting, considering that Strickland

00:34:31.340 --> 00:34:35.079
is in this movie. Oh, yeah. I forgot about him.

00:34:36.039 --> 00:34:38.900
We haven't seen him yet. No, we won't see him

00:34:38.900 --> 00:34:43.280
for a while yet, but... James Tolkien plays Detective

00:34:43.280 --> 00:34:46.260
High. Hugh Lubick. Excuse me, not high. He's

00:34:46.260 --> 00:34:48.500
not high, but he's Hugh. But obviously, most

00:34:48.500 --> 00:34:50.559
people know him as Mr. Strickland from Back to

00:34:50.559 --> 00:35:01.139
the Future. Slacker! Good stuff. Oh, look, a

00:35:01.139 --> 00:35:10.429
musical light show. You fool. Put it down. And

00:35:10.429 --> 00:35:13.110
there's also this part in this, not this part

00:35:13.110 --> 00:35:14.989
specifically where they're on Eternia looking

00:35:14.989 --> 00:35:17.789
for the cosmic key. Oh, I like that effect though,

00:35:17.829 --> 00:35:19.989
even though it's a very cheap effect. I love

00:35:19.989 --> 00:35:22.530
the spatial effect of how they're trying to track

00:35:22.530 --> 00:35:25.590
the planet, you know, kind of thing. Yeah, that

00:35:25.590 --> 00:35:29.690
is very cool for the time. That was good for

00:35:29.690 --> 00:35:32.369
computer graphics at that time. Oh, absolutely.

00:35:32.550 --> 00:35:34.849
Yeah, it was. But there's also this underlying

00:35:34.849 --> 00:35:37.650
story thing in this movie where her parents are

00:35:37.650 --> 00:35:41.539
dead. I believe, or her parents could die or

00:35:41.539 --> 00:35:45.820
something like that. Yeah, that's what I thought.

00:35:45.920 --> 00:35:48.239
Like, they are dead, but oh, wait, you know,

00:35:48.260 --> 00:35:52.500
they don't have to be. We see a couple of the

00:35:52.500 --> 00:35:54.340
people that they got here. We got Beastman and

00:35:54.340 --> 00:35:59.039
Karg and Sarad and Blade and whatnot. I think

00:35:59.039 --> 00:36:02.219
it was Karg, or whichever one is the lizard type

00:36:02.219 --> 00:36:05.880
guy. You see his neck, like, inflate. and go

00:36:05.880 --> 00:36:09.559
back and forth. He has a straw of some sort that

00:36:09.559 --> 00:36:11.440
is connected to his mouth that he can inflate

00:36:11.440 --> 00:36:15.199
and deflate that while he's in his costume. Beastman

00:36:15.199 --> 00:36:18.139
being the only one that we get from the old one.

00:36:18.820 --> 00:36:23.360
Blade was the one that always... I don't know.

00:36:23.360 --> 00:36:26.219
That was the one that I found intriguing or interesting

00:36:26.219 --> 00:36:29.219
or awesome as a kid. Obviously, Kar against Saurad

00:36:29.219 --> 00:36:31.800
or whatever are freaky looking, so I wasn't drawn

00:36:31.800 --> 00:36:34.340
to them. But I remember thinking Blade was kind

00:36:34.340 --> 00:36:38.079
of badass. He was one that also had a very restrictive

00:36:38.079 --> 00:36:40.119
costume. And at one point, he had a lot more

00:36:40.119 --> 00:36:42.099
blades to it. It was covering a lot more of his

00:36:42.099 --> 00:36:45.880
body. But in order for him not to basically overheat

00:36:45.880 --> 00:36:47.800
and whatnot, they had to remove parts of it so

00:36:47.800 --> 00:36:51.420
that his arms were free. So that he could breathe

00:36:51.420 --> 00:36:54.840
a little bit easier. Wow. Yeah, he had these

00:36:54.840 --> 00:36:58.139
huge metal pieces that were covering his whole

00:36:58.139 --> 00:36:59.519
body at one point. And then they wanted him to

00:36:59.519 --> 00:37:02.429
be in all kinds of makeup. um which he didn't

00:37:02.429 --> 00:37:04.409
want to do so he like negotiated with him and

00:37:04.409 --> 00:37:07.230
said what if i just shaved my head um instead

00:37:07.230 --> 00:37:09.449
and i guess they said that was good enough so

00:37:09.449 --> 00:37:12.570
that's why he's bald in this he's also responsible

00:37:12.570 --> 00:37:15.789
for doing most of the choreography and the um

00:37:15.789 --> 00:37:19.250
building up of any of the fight sequences especially

00:37:19.250 --> 00:37:23.269
the two main ones um he had some expertise in

00:37:23.269 --> 00:37:27.550
that realm so he wasn't just acting in this movie

00:37:27.550 --> 00:37:29.489
but he was also choreographing a lot of the action

00:37:29.489 --> 00:37:32.199
sequence because he is known as not only an actor,

00:37:32.239 --> 00:37:37.019
but a stuntman and a fight choreographer. Very

00:37:37.019 --> 00:37:40.119
cool, very cool. Yeah, he was known for his roles

00:37:40.119 --> 00:37:43.940
in Highlander, the series. That's where he did

00:37:43.940 --> 00:37:47.519
some stuff in some of the Indiana Jones. He taught

00:37:47.519 --> 00:37:49.079
Michelle Pfeiffer how to use a bullwhip for her

00:37:49.079 --> 00:37:52.860
role as Catwoman. So he had a lot of experiences

00:37:52.860 --> 00:37:54.820
with fight choreography, stunt work, and things

00:37:54.820 --> 00:37:56.360
like that. So he played a huge part in this film.

00:38:00.409 --> 00:38:03.150
Obviously, we have the evil warriors now being

00:38:03.150 --> 00:38:07.150
assembled, sent to Earth. Yep. And they're trying

00:38:07.150 --> 00:38:13.210
to scare Courtney Cox, scream style. Janitor.

00:38:15.650 --> 00:38:26.269
Janitors always get the shaft. Yep. What was

00:38:26.269 --> 00:38:32.469
your opinion on Beastman? Overall, he's inconsequential.

00:38:32.489 --> 00:38:38.090
I mean, I'm not expecting him to have full vocabulary

00:38:38.090 --> 00:38:41.349
kind of thing. I don't expect any of these characters

00:38:41.349 --> 00:38:45.829
in this movie to carry on a conversation like

00:38:45.829 --> 00:38:48.349
they would in the cartoon series, but it just...

00:38:48.349 --> 00:38:52.570
Outside of Evelyn and Skeletor, none of the characters,

00:38:52.809 --> 00:38:55.329
even Blade. Blade was kind of cool, and like

00:38:55.329 --> 00:38:57.690
you said, kind of curious about him, but like...

00:38:58.320 --> 00:39:00.619
Beastman right here is basically just preparing

00:39:00.619 --> 00:39:04.940
her for her scream days, essentially. You would

00:39:04.940 --> 00:39:06.880
have thought that they could have turned Saurad,

00:39:06.960 --> 00:39:08.699
I think that's the right one, into one of the

00:39:08.699 --> 00:39:10.960
Snakemen almost, like a Cobra Khan type character.

00:39:11.519 --> 00:39:13.659
Yeah. And you would think Beastman would not

00:39:13.659 --> 00:39:15.699
have been the go -to guy to recreate if they

00:39:15.699 --> 00:39:17.159
were going to create anybody. I would have thought

00:39:17.159 --> 00:39:21.340
Triclops maybe could have been easier done, more

00:39:21.340 --> 00:39:24.920
easily done than Beastman. Yeah. They didn't

00:39:24.920 --> 00:39:26.440
do terrible with Beastman. I mean, he doesn't

00:39:26.440 --> 00:39:29.829
look... super cheesy. No, but at the same time,

00:39:29.889 --> 00:39:33.090
he does less here than he does in the actual

00:39:33.090 --> 00:39:37.230
cartoon series. That's the only thing. Again,

00:39:37.429 --> 00:39:44.929
these evil warriors are not here for their intelligence,

00:39:45.449 --> 00:39:51.670
but they're basically here for fodder. The core

00:39:51.670 --> 00:39:54.150
of the movie is Skeletor, Evelyn, and He -Man.

00:39:54.889 --> 00:39:58.199
At first, I didn't know if Karg, I think that's

00:39:58.199 --> 00:39:59.380
the one. Is Karg the one with the white hair?

00:39:59.739 --> 00:40:02.380
Yep. At first I didn't know if that was a male

00:40:02.380 --> 00:40:06.400
or a female character. Because the hair makes

00:40:06.400 --> 00:40:10.920
it almost look feminine. But it's Courtney Cox

00:40:10.920 --> 00:40:14.639
just running through like a what is this, like

00:40:14.639 --> 00:40:18.380
a warehouse type situation? Yeah, it's some sort

00:40:18.380 --> 00:40:23.010
of Not necessarily the best place to be when

00:40:23.010 --> 00:40:24.469
you're trying to run away from these guys, I

00:40:24.469 --> 00:40:26.429
don't think. I guess there's a lot of places

00:40:26.429 --> 00:40:28.269
to hide, but you usually want to go around people.

00:40:30.250 --> 00:40:32.369
Yeah, it's some sort of warehouse district or

00:40:32.369 --> 00:40:36.050
something. Of course, she runs right into He

00:40:36.050 --> 00:40:39.329
-Man's arms. She's freaked out because he also

00:40:39.329 --> 00:40:43.570
looks like an alien. But don't worry, I'm going

00:40:43.570 --> 00:40:47.489
to talk to you in sweet Swedish accents and you're

00:40:47.489 --> 00:40:50.989
going to be feeling comfortable. And, of course,

00:40:51.010 --> 00:40:55.869
the standard male -female pickup, you know. Look

00:40:55.869 --> 00:40:58.469
in there. All about how Kark just makes the stormtroopers

00:40:58.469 --> 00:41:00.469
look in random boxes. I'm just going to call

00:41:00.469 --> 00:41:02.070
them stormtroopers or horde troopers. I don't

00:41:02.070 --> 00:41:06.730
know. Oh, yeah. Whatever they are. Hell, at this

00:41:06.730 --> 00:41:08.989
point, we could call them dark troopers. That's

00:41:08.989 --> 00:41:12.530
true. Very true. It's just interesting when,

00:41:12.610 --> 00:41:13.989
you know, thinking back to the first time you

00:41:13.989 --> 00:41:15.630
ever watched this movie, it's definitely at this

00:41:15.630 --> 00:41:18.440
point that you're... You're almost having a battle

00:41:18.440 --> 00:41:21.960
within yourself on if this is a He -Man movie

00:41:21.960 --> 00:41:24.780
or not. You know what I mean? They're on Earth.

00:41:24.900 --> 00:41:27.699
We have humans. We have random characters that

00:41:27.699 --> 00:41:30.039
we don't know who they are. We have He -Man,

00:41:30.139 --> 00:41:31.460
though, and we have a couple other characters.

00:41:32.579 --> 00:41:34.099
You're just not quite sure what to make of it,

00:41:34.119 --> 00:41:38.900
I don't think, at this point. I don't know. We're

00:41:38.900 --> 00:41:41.139
used to, as children of the 80s, we're used to

00:41:41.139 --> 00:41:45.639
watching things like... turtles or transformers

00:41:45.639 --> 00:41:48.679
or whatever series you want that always were

00:41:48.679 --> 00:41:50.639
throwing like the human characters like as a

00:41:50.639 --> 00:41:53.460
kid like it'd be like oh here's a bunch of robots

00:41:53.460 --> 00:41:55.480
and we're going to give you one human character

00:41:55.480 --> 00:41:58.380
that's also young you know a child of some sort

00:41:58.380 --> 00:42:00.500
um and they did that in a lot of series even

00:42:00.500 --> 00:42:05.079
even like series that weren't all aliens or robots

00:42:05.079 --> 00:42:07.699
like you know look at mask or something like

00:42:07.699 --> 00:42:11.139
that you still got the kid character um, that

00:42:11.139 --> 00:42:12.780
was like, Oh, this is what the kids have to relate

00:42:12.780 --> 00:42:14.460
to. This is how, so they can see themselves in

00:42:14.460 --> 00:42:17.320
the story and whatnot. And it's weird because

00:42:17.320 --> 00:42:18.800
this movie isn't quite doing that. They're not

00:42:18.800 --> 00:42:21.940
giving us kid, but they're giving us like young

00:42:21.940 --> 00:42:26.000
people that are humans, almost in the same manner

00:42:26.000 --> 00:42:27.880
that you would see that in a cartoon. You know

00:42:27.880 --> 00:42:29.480
what I mean? Like, it's like, here's people you're

00:42:29.480 --> 00:42:32.219
supposed to relate to. Yeah. Here's one of the

00:42:32.219 --> 00:42:35.000
fights we get with blade and he, man, that is

00:42:35.000 --> 00:42:38.280
obviously choreographed by blade. Yep. With swords

00:42:38.280 --> 00:42:41.239
and different things. Not too bad of action sequences

00:42:41.239 --> 00:42:43.940
here. No, it's a good action sequence. I still

00:42:43.940 --> 00:42:46.840
think He -Man's sword looks wimpy as hell, though.

00:42:47.280 --> 00:42:49.179
Right. Oh, that was a creepy shot with Karg in

00:42:49.179 --> 00:42:51.219
the background behind Courtney Cox. Yeah, grabbing

00:42:51.219 --> 00:42:53.960
her. Yep. It was like a scene before that, though,

00:42:53.980 --> 00:42:55.239
like a sequence before that. They showed him

00:42:55.239 --> 00:42:56.579
in the background, and you didn't necessarily

00:42:56.579 --> 00:42:58.980
see it at first. It was like, oh, he's just hiding

00:42:58.980 --> 00:43:02.460
back there like a creeper. Mm -hmm. He -Man throwing

00:43:02.460 --> 00:43:06.000
some people around. More red laser, blue laser.

00:43:09.329 --> 00:43:16.889
Shooting a beast man. So that's our first interaction.

00:43:17.210 --> 00:43:20.590
You know, the came in and everybody knows that

00:43:20.590 --> 00:43:24.769
the evil warriors are on earth with them. So

00:43:24.769 --> 00:43:32.789
we have that as a dilemma. Her fake crying is

00:43:32.789 --> 00:43:39.519
so bad. Yeah, that's true. It was a decent choice

00:43:39.519 --> 00:43:41.820
of having somebody that's going to be next to

00:43:41.820 --> 00:43:43.239
Dolph Lundgren that's going to make Dolph Lundgren

00:43:43.239 --> 00:43:50.159
look even bigger. Yeah, obviously. And now it's

00:43:50.159 --> 00:43:53.059
so far removed because it's not our masters and

00:43:53.059 --> 00:43:55.340
it's not even the main human. It's the main human's

00:43:55.340 --> 00:43:58.079
boyfriend that has the quintessential device.

00:43:59.099 --> 00:44:01.679
Probably because his name's Kevin. Yeah, well,

00:44:01.840 --> 00:44:04.300
you know. It's your fault you went to Charlie's.

00:44:05.579 --> 00:44:08.369
I don't even know where Charlie's is. Or Club

00:44:08.369 --> 00:44:14.969
Zero, where this guy was. Exactly. And this is

00:44:14.969 --> 00:44:18.030
supposed to be a pawn shop? Pawn shop, yeah.

00:44:18.469 --> 00:44:20.989
Radio Shack or something? I think it's more like

00:44:20.989 --> 00:44:23.809
a music store type thing. Oh, yeah, that's right.

00:44:23.909 --> 00:44:26.630
It's a music store. Selling different instruments.

00:44:26.929 --> 00:44:29.570
I haven't actually watched this movie in a decade.

00:44:30.130 --> 00:44:32.090
It's got tambourines on the wall for some reason.

00:44:32.170 --> 00:44:34.269
I don't know who he's selling those to. Drum

00:44:34.269 --> 00:44:38.710
set up above on the other angle. Just touching

00:44:38.710 --> 00:44:43.070
random buttons here. Probably not the smartest

00:44:43.070 --> 00:44:45.929
thing to do. No, not at all. It's interesting,

00:44:46.050 --> 00:44:47.550
too. It's got guitars up there above, and then

00:44:47.550 --> 00:44:50.550
there's like a frickin' baritone or tuba case

00:44:50.550 --> 00:44:55.590
next to them. It's like the most disorganized

00:44:55.590 --> 00:45:00.769
store. You got drumsticks just in a frickin',

00:45:00.769 --> 00:45:03.690
whatchamacallit, that is a drum that the drumsticks

00:45:03.690 --> 00:45:11.699
are in. It's ridiculous. How much of this stuff,

00:45:11.800 --> 00:45:14.179
what would any of this stuff be worth? If you

00:45:14.179 --> 00:45:17.320
still had it today, some of it would be worth

00:45:17.320 --> 00:45:18.900
some, some of it probably would be. And then

00:45:18.900 --> 00:45:21.539
some of it would be just complete trash. Yup.

00:45:21.659 --> 00:45:23.280
I was trying to see what the sale was, the sale

00:45:23.280 --> 00:45:24.940
price on that guitar was in the background, but

00:45:24.940 --> 00:45:27.079
I couldn't quite read it. No, I can't read it

00:45:27.079 --> 00:45:29.539
either. There's only one that has like a first

00:45:29.539 --> 00:45:32.659
sale ticket, but something's 59 98 and over his

00:45:32.659 --> 00:45:37.239
shoulder. I couldn't see what it was. So obviously

00:45:37.239 --> 00:45:39.780
they are learning about the break -in and the

00:45:39.780 --> 00:45:42.079
arson and et cetera, et cetera, at the high school

00:45:42.079 --> 00:45:45.659
that his girlfriend was at. What is Courtney

00:45:45.659 --> 00:45:47.860
Cox? Julie. Julie is the character's name. Julie

00:45:47.860 --> 00:45:50.559
is the character's name, yeah. So Julie and Kevin

00:45:50.559 --> 00:45:57.599
is what we get from them. Who's Charlie? I don't

00:45:57.599 --> 00:46:02.739
know. That was the name in the store there. Oh,

00:46:02.760 --> 00:46:04.949
that's the music guy? I don't know if it's his

00:46:04.949 --> 00:46:09.469
name, but there was a name, Charlie. On the counter,

00:46:09.710 --> 00:46:11.889
just to the left of it, there's Charlie in all

00:46:11.889 --> 00:46:13.650
pink neon. Yeah, because there's someone in the

00:46:13.650 --> 00:46:16.889
cast list that's listed as Charlie. So that's

00:46:16.889 --> 00:46:20.909
why I was checking that out. Welcome, seniors,

00:46:21.030 --> 00:46:26.130
to your doom. High school really is the end of

00:46:26.130 --> 00:46:29.289
your life, basically. Dolph Lundgren would be

00:46:29.289 --> 00:46:32.610
63 this year. 64 is what he's going to turn this

00:46:32.610 --> 00:46:37.559
year, actually. He is 63 currently. So he was

00:46:37.559 --> 00:46:41.599
54 when he made The Expendables. Franklin Jella

00:46:41.599 --> 00:46:48.480
just January 1st just turned 83. Yep. It's funny.

00:46:48.639 --> 00:46:52.079
When The Americans was still on FX before it

00:46:52.079 --> 00:46:56.260
ended its run, this is a spy thriller show on

00:46:56.260 --> 00:47:00.909
FX networks. He actually has a role on there,

00:47:00.969 --> 00:47:03.309
and I'm like, it's so weird seeing Frank Langella

00:47:03.309 --> 00:47:08.570
without his Skeletor mask on. James Tolkien,

00:47:08.690 --> 00:47:10.969
Detective Lubick, that we see right here, he

00:47:10.969 --> 00:47:15.510
actually will turn 90 this year. 90. And he looks

00:47:15.510 --> 00:47:22.309
the same now as he did three years ago. Billy

00:47:22.309 --> 00:47:24.789
Barty is no longer with us. He died in the year

00:47:24.789 --> 00:47:28.849
2000. I think almost everybody else, I'm just

00:47:28.849 --> 00:47:30.269
kind of going through, I think everybody else

00:47:30.269 --> 00:47:35.610
is still alive of the main cast, which is interesting.

00:47:36.369 --> 00:47:38.210
A lot of times when we review stuff like this,

00:47:38.230 --> 00:47:40.329
a lot of people are no longer with us. We do

00:47:40.329 --> 00:47:42.670
have a lot of people that are 70 or 80 or 90,

00:47:42.909 --> 00:47:46.030
but I'm not finding anybody besides Billy Barty

00:47:46.030 --> 00:47:49.449
that's passed on. And it's funny because Lubick

00:47:49.449 --> 00:47:52.389
had a... good three year run of films in the

00:47:52.389 --> 00:47:54.150
eighties. I don't know what he had. I don't know

00:47:54.150 --> 00:47:57.829
what he had in 84 or earlier, but from 85 to

00:47:57.829 --> 00:48:01.989
87, back to the future, uh, uh, 86, he had top

00:48:01.989 --> 00:48:05.630
gun, really Maverick top gun, you know, and then

00:48:05.630 --> 00:48:08.210
he's got this and then he shows up obviously

00:48:08.210 --> 00:48:10.989
later in back to the future, two and three. Right.

00:48:11.630 --> 00:48:18.279
He was in one scene. Yeah. Yeah, for sure. He

00:48:18.279 --> 00:48:21.219
actually played Numbers in Dick Tracy. That's

00:48:21.219 --> 00:48:24.340
right. He had an appearance in Dick Tracy as

00:48:24.340 --> 00:48:28.039
well. After that, I think it was mostly TV. He

00:48:28.039 --> 00:48:31.400
did appear a couple years back in a movie called

00:48:31.400 --> 00:48:34.179
Bone Tomahawk in 2015, which I saw. I'm going

00:48:34.179 --> 00:48:35.579
to have to look back to see who he played in

00:48:35.579 --> 00:48:39.659
that. He's been around for a while. He was in

00:48:39.659 --> 00:48:41.659
Serpico in 1973. I haven't seen it, but I've

00:48:41.659 --> 00:48:45.159
heard a lot of things about that movie. The Amityville

00:48:45.159 --> 00:48:50.679
Horror. Another one that I have not seen. Been

00:48:50.679 --> 00:48:52.480
around for a while. His first movie was 1960.

00:48:53.300 --> 00:48:56.019
Yep. His first TV appearance, excuse me, 1960.

00:48:56.860 --> 00:48:59.880
Naked City, yep. He has not appeared in anything

00:48:59.880 --> 00:49:02.159
since 2015. I'm assuming that's because he's

00:49:02.159 --> 00:49:11.059
retired since he's 90 years old. Probably. Skeletor

00:49:11.059 --> 00:49:16.280
and Evil Lynn having a moment. Of course. They

00:49:16.280 --> 00:49:18.000
almost played it up like more like a romantic

00:49:18.000 --> 00:49:19.679
angle in this movie than we ever saw anywhere

00:49:19.679 --> 00:49:24.179
else. Yeah. Where like, she's almost infatuated

00:49:24.179 --> 00:49:26.880
with him in some way. Like she still has the

00:49:26.880 --> 00:49:29.619
smart, like I'll do, I'll look out for number

00:49:29.619 --> 00:49:32.679
one first type thing, but, but it's more of a,

00:49:32.800 --> 00:49:34.960
it almost seems like a more of an attractiveness

00:49:34.960 --> 00:49:37.639
towards to, you know, towards Skeletor, which

00:49:37.639 --> 00:49:39.760
is kind of weird. The red lipstick really pops

00:49:39.760 --> 00:49:42.320
on her with how white every, you know, her eyes

00:49:42.320 --> 00:49:43.940
being so pale, which you could really see in

00:49:43.940 --> 00:49:47.650
that last picture. And then the skin makeup that's

00:49:47.650 --> 00:49:50.130
making her so pale, as well as her outfit, which

00:49:50.130 --> 00:49:54.610
is also light colors. I don't hate her outfit.

00:49:54.690 --> 00:49:57.010
It's a little different, but I don't hate it.

00:49:58.510 --> 00:50:02.530
This is interesting here. We do talk about how

00:50:02.530 --> 00:50:05.510
He -Man wasn't allowed to kill anybody. Not so

00:50:05.510 --> 00:50:08.590
much, I guess, for Skeletor. He is going to kill

00:50:08.590 --> 00:50:10.989
one of these guys real quick. Well, he is the

00:50:10.989 --> 00:50:14.019
villain, you know. It was surprising. I remember

00:50:14.019 --> 00:50:15.920
being surprised the first time I saw this, whether

00:50:15.920 --> 00:50:18.900
it was in the theater or not, that it seems like

00:50:18.900 --> 00:50:21.420
it was somewhat early in the movie where Skeletor

00:50:21.420 --> 00:50:23.840
just takes somebody out, but it's a good way

00:50:23.840 --> 00:50:27.059
of really showing his strength and his evilness

00:50:27.059 --> 00:50:29.719
right off the bat. Absolutely, yeah. Beastman

00:50:29.719 --> 00:50:35.380
looks like he had a better day. Mm -hmm. Oh,

00:50:35.480 --> 00:50:42.940
oh, here we go. Yep. Skeletor looking like he's

00:50:42.940 --> 00:50:45.539
not happy with things. His nose is so creepy.

00:50:45.900 --> 00:50:51.300
Yeah, it is. Because again, it's a mask over

00:50:51.300 --> 00:50:53.860
here. I am not in the giving pain this day. That's

00:50:53.860 --> 00:50:57.420
a great line from Skeletor. Yeah, it is. That

00:50:57.420 --> 00:51:01.059
is actually straight out of Shakespeare. It's

00:51:01.059 --> 00:51:03.199
a copy from a line from one of Shakespeare's

00:51:03.199 --> 00:51:06.940
plays. I'm not in the giving mood this day. It's

00:51:06.940 --> 00:51:08.960
kind of an interesting ode to Shakespeare, I

00:51:08.960 --> 00:51:14.489
guess. But so much for Sarad. Yep. He was useless

00:51:14.489 --> 00:51:18.510
anyway. I guess Sarad really enjoyed working

00:51:18.510 --> 00:51:20.090
with Franklin Jelly, even though he kills him

00:51:20.090 --> 00:51:23.530
in this scene. Because I guess when in costume,

00:51:23.769 --> 00:51:26.389
like we talked about with Evil Lynn, he can't

00:51:26.389 --> 00:51:29.650
sit anywhere. So he had a special board that

00:51:29.650 --> 00:51:32.750
he could lean against that had a hole cut out

00:51:32.750 --> 00:51:35.889
for his tail to go through. So that he could

00:51:35.889 --> 00:51:37.960
be like... resting in some ways. And I guess

00:51:37.960 --> 00:51:39.820
Franklin Della would always stop by and talk

00:51:39.820 --> 00:51:42.719
to him or bring him stuff to read or, you know,

00:51:42.719 --> 00:51:44.099
I don't know if he brought him food or drink,

00:51:44.119 --> 00:51:46.159
but it just would like go out of his way to make

00:51:46.159 --> 00:51:47.760
sure he was comfortable, which was kind of nice.

00:51:48.260 --> 00:51:50.179
Yeah. That's awesome. Franklin Della just comes

00:51:50.179 --> 00:51:53.699
across as a, as a cool dude. Yeah, he does. Obviously

00:51:53.699 --> 00:51:55.219
I've never met the guy. I can't speak for him,

00:51:55.260 --> 00:51:56.659
but he just comes across as someone that seems

00:51:56.659 --> 00:51:59.059
like he's down to earth. Didn't let fame get

00:51:59.059 --> 00:52:02.139
to him. And yeah, he's a, he's an actor's actor.

00:52:02.400 --> 00:52:05.409
Right. Class act. Getting back to Lubbock here,

00:52:05.570 --> 00:52:10.269
he was in one episode, I think, of your favorite

00:52:10.269 --> 00:52:13.369
show, one of my least favorite shows. He was

00:52:13.369 --> 00:52:16.630
on The Wonder Years as Coach Silva. When was

00:52:16.630 --> 00:52:18.670
that one of your least favorite shows? I just

00:52:18.670 --> 00:52:20.489
don't like that show. When have you watched it

00:52:20.489 --> 00:52:24.150
last? Whenever it hit whatever streaming service

00:52:24.150 --> 00:52:26.829
it was a couple of years ago. I just feel like

00:52:26.829 --> 00:52:28.530
watching it now and kind of just reminiscing

00:52:28.530 --> 00:52:30.409
back to childhood and things like that, it just

00:52:30.409 --> 00:52:33.579
gets you in the feels. I'd love The Wonder Years.

00:52:33.719 --> 00:52:35.260
I haven't watched it from beginning to end, but

00:52:35.260 --> 00:52:40.840
I want to at some point. I think one of them

00:52:40.840 --> 00:52:45.099
was in MacGyver. I can't remember if it was Anthony

00:52:45.099 --> 00:52:48.960
DeLongis or somebody else. Somebody was in an

00:52:48.960 --> 00:52:55.179
episode of MacGyver. You'd think I'd know, but...

00:52:55.179 --> 00:52:57.119
Yeah, you'd think you would know since you're

00:52:57.119 --> 00:53:06.539
a MacGyver nut. Shut up. It wasn't either one

00:53:06.539 --> 00:53:09.000
of those two. I don't know who I saw in this

00:53:09.000 --> 00:53:14.739
film that was in one of the MacGyvers. Click

00:53:14.739 --> 00:53:18.320
around a little bit and apologize for the sounds.

00:53:21.639 --> 00:53:25.539
Well, Kevin in this movie did a lot of guest

00:53:25.539 --> 00:53:29.210
spots on TV shows. Good Lord. Yeah, he did. He

00:53:29.210 --> 00:53:31.909
was in The Twilight Zone. He was in All My Children,

00:53:32.110 --> 00:53:34.510
Quantum Leap, L .A. Law, Star Trek The Next Generation,

00:53:34.809 --> 00:53:39.010
Murder, She Wrote, Star Trek Voyager, Dawson's

00:53:39.010 --> 00:53:43.030
Creek, Star Trek Enterprise, One Tree Hill, The

00:53:43.030 --> 00:53:47.809
Outer Limits, The O .C., Supernatural. He's been

00:53:47.809 --> 00:53:51.630
around for a while. Yes, he has. Blue Bloods,

00:53:51.630 --> 00:53:55.510
White Collar. So you've probably seen him pop

00:53:55.510 --> 00:53:59.539
up in many different things. Yep. he's one of

00:53:59.539 --> 00:54:02.059
those guys. Hey, it's that guy. Where do I remember

00:54:02.059 --> 00:54:03.880
you? Like you really have only ever seen him

00:54:03.880 --> 00:54:07.420
once in this movie. Really? I mean, you know,

00:54:07.420 --> 00:54:10.380
I'm sure. But for me, if I had seen him anywhere

00:54:10.380 --> 00:54:13.699
else, I'd be like, wait a minute. Is that, and

00:54:13.699 --> 00:54:16.420
I have no idea what he looks like since this

00:54:16.420 --> 00:54:18.300
film. I only know what he looks like in this

00:54:18.300 --> 00:54:20.420
movie. So I probably wouldn't recognize him either.

00:54:21.159 --> 00:54:24.500
Right. I love those effects. Those effects are

00:54:24.500 --> 00:54:27.400
really good on the scanner there for the time.

00:54:27.949 --> 00:54:33.469
That was really cool. I agree. John Cypher also

00:54:33.469 --> 00:54:44.789
was in a shit ton of things. Robert Towers was

00:54:44.789 --> 00:54:47.530
in nothing. This is the guy that plays Karg.

00:54:47.670 --> 00:54:53.889
He had four film roles. One of them was just

00:54:53.889 --> 00:54:55.829
additional voices on Rockin' with Judy Jetson.

00:54:57.550 --> 00:55:01.610
He's been in two video games and he was four

00:55:01.610 --> 00:55:05.110
different animated roles and six television roles.

00:55:05.889 --> 00:55:09.570
Wow. So Lubbock is going crazy over here because

00:55:09.570 --> 00:55:14.610
he's like, Oh, this is nuts. I'm going to pull

00:55:14.610 --> 00:55:16.769
a Kevin McAllister before Kevin McAllister did

00:55:16.769 --> 00:55:19.809
it. Basically. Oh, this is interesting. Ponds

00:55:19.809 --> 00:55:22.710
Mar, the guy who plays Sarad, he is an American

00:55:22.710 --> 00:55:24.929
actor, puppeteer, artist, and filmmaker. He,

00:55:25.550 --> 00:55:28.190
was the voice for Noid in the Domino's pizza

00:55:28.190 --> 00:55:32.110
commercials. Oh, yeah. Love the Noid. At least

00:55:32.110 --> 00:55:33.650
at one point. I don't know how long he did that,

00:55:33.710 --> 00:55:36.289
but it's listed on his page. So that's an interesting

00:55:36.289 --> 00:55:39.650
one. And her scanner is going to pick up the

00:55:39.650 --> 00:55:44.710
microwave waves and destroy the microwave. No

00:55:44.710 --> 00:55:54.809
more hot chicken for you guys. Good Lord. Tony

00:55:54.809 --> 00:55:59.869
Carroll played Beastman. He did almost nothing

00:55:59.869 --> 00:56:06.409
else. You know, it's funny. You get some of these

00:56:06.409 --> 00:56:10.449
movies that want to cast unknowns or whatever,

00:56:10.690 --> 00:56:13.809
and sometimes the unknown, like Christopher Reeve.

00:56:13.909 --> 00:56:17.050
He was virtually unknown at the time. Obviously

00:56:17.050 --> 00:56:19.230
graduated from Juilliard and everything else,

00:56:19.309 --> 00:56:23.440
roomed with Robin Williams. And now, you know,

00:56:23.440 --> 00:56:25.440
he's known to the rest of the world as Superman

00:56:25.440 --> 00:56:27.960
for the rest of his life and afterlife now that

00:56:27.960 --> 00:56:30.599
he's no longer been with us. But sometimes when

00:56:30.599 --> 00:56:33.300
you're casting unknowns, you get people like

00:56:33.300 --> 00:56:37.079
the person that played, you know, Karg or whatever

00:56:37.079 --> 00:56:39.880
that didn't go on to do anything else. It's kind

00:56:39.880 --> 00:56:46.780
of sad. Yeah, absolutely. Lubbock confiscates

00:56:46.780 --> 00:56:48.719
the key, which is just going to bring him more

00:56:48.719 --> 00:57:01.369
trouble. Yeah. Oh, Kevin. Why do you have to

00:57:01.369 --> 00:57:06.449
be so stupid, Kevin? I mean... And that pink

00:57:06.449 --> 00:57:10.590
car, come on. Jesus. That's when you know you're

00:57:10.590 --> 00:57:15.789
confident in your manhood. Mm -hmm. Ah! Blow

00:57:15.789 --> 00:57:25.829
the door off it. Get out of here! Jeez. Oh, Lord.

00:57:27.469 --> 00:57:30.230
Yeah, we got another showdown here with the evil

00:57:30.230 --> 00:57:34.650
warriors. And Beastman, yep. Going against Kevin.

00:57:35.070 --> 00:57:36.789
He should just be dead at this point, really.

00:57:37.369 --> 00:57:39.489
I mean, going up against a monster like that?

00:57:39.590 --> 00:57:43.130
Yeah, he should just be dead. Yeah, we shouldn't

00:57:43.130 --> 00:57:46.329
have seen him again. Yeah, that codpiece she's

00:57:46.329 --> 00:57:50.969
wearing, she should not be wearing. I definitely

00:57:50.969 --> 00:57:54.429
wanted to accentuate her chest. Oh, no, I'm not

00:57:54.429 --> 00:57:57.869
talking about the upper. I noticed the lower

00:57:57.869 --> 00:58:00.670
part more than I noticed the... I'm like, that

00:58:00.670 --> 00:58:05.409
doesn't look right at all. Man, you just got

00:58:05.409 --> 00:58:18.789
turned into a dog. The interrogation device here.

00:58:19.309 --> 00:58:25.949
Put the color of truth around him. At least in

00:58:25.949 --> 00:58:28.730
the 70s when Linda Carter did it, it was a lasso

00:58:28.730 --> 00:58:33.969
and it looked better. Yeah. Tearing up the place,

00:58:34.010 --> 00:58:36.730
looking for the key. Local couple dying, plane

00:58:36.730 --> 00:58:41.610
crash, yep. Find the girl. So this is what's

00:58:41.610 --> 00:58:44.530
going to give him the idea to do what they do

00:58:44.530 --> 00:58:53.059
here in a little while. Mm -hmm. I do like Blade's

00:58:53.059 --> 00:58:56.739
design. I like his eye thing. I like his whole

00:58:56.739 --> 00:59:04.760
chin thing, whatever. Right. Some critical responses.

00:59:05.639 --> 00:59:08.360
The Rotten Tomatoes consensus reads, Masters

00:59:08.360 --> 00:59:10.900
of the Universe is a slapdash adaptation of the

00:59:10.900 --> 00:59:13.820
He -Man mythos that can't overcome its cynical

00:59:13.820 --> 00:59:16.760
lack of raison d 'etre. I don't know what that

00:59:16.760 --> 00:59:19.139
means. No matter how admirably Franklin Jelliff

00:59:19.139 --> 00:59:24.389
throws himself into the role of Skeletor. Variety

00:59:24.389 --> 00:59:27.849
said it's a Conan Star Wars hybrid ripoff. That

00:59:27.849 --> 00:59:31.929
is a colossal boar. Guy from the New York Times

00:59:31.929 --> 00:59:33.670
said if you like the toy, you'll love the movie.

00:59:35.929 --> 00:59:38.369
Okay, so it's funny you mentioned that. And they're

00:59:38.369 --> 00:59:40.150
going off to find them. And since you brought

00:59:40.150 --> 00:59:44.170
up the toys, actually in, was it, when was this?

00:59:44.590 --> 00:59:49.269
That's the pre -order which sold out. In 2011?

00:59:51.050 --> 00:59:54.309
Where was this article written? I can't even

00:59:54.309 --> 00:59:59.170
tell. Basically, Masters of the Universe Classics,

00:59:59.230 --> 01:00:02.750
they did the William Stout collection. I've got

01:00:02.750 --> 01:00:05.769
a link here from Toy Arc that I'll put in the

01:00:05.769 --> 01:00:09.210
post of this episode for the podcast. But they

01:00:09.210 --> 01:00:11.550
show off images of the action figures from Masters

01:00:11.550 --> 01:00:13.170
of the Universe Classics. They have He -Man,

01:00:13.389 --> 01:00:18.239
Regular Skeletor, Karg, and God Skeletor. And

01:00:18.239 --> 01:00:20.980
I'll probably even, I'll send you off air, uh,

01:00:21.300 --> 01:00:23.920
pixel dance video with these and the action figures

01:00:23.920 --> 01:00:27.260
look a hell of a lot better than what the, what

01:00:27.260 --> 01:00:32.480
the, what the film does. The, um, the God Skeletor

01:00:32.480 --> 01:00:34.980
figure, it's pretty much ripped right off the

01:00:34.980 --> 01:00:38.480
screen. They all are, but it just looks so much

01:00:38.480 --> 01:00:41.460
cooler. I remember wanting some of the, I wanted

01:00:41.460 --> 01:00:43.139
the blade figure and a couple other figures,

01:00:43.199 --> 01:00:45.900
but I never got my hands on them. Yeah, those

01:00:45.900 --> 01:00:50.380
were from the original film. These are four figures

01:00:50.380 --> 01:00:52.699
that were done in Masters Universe Classics somewhere

01:00:52.699 --> 01:00:54.639
in the last five, six, seven years. I forget

01:00:54.639 --> 01:00:57.400
when. And they're basically today's standard

01:00:57.400 --> 01:00:59.980
of action figure, and it's just four of them.

01:01:00.039 --> 01:01:03.340
Two Skeletors, a Karg, and a He -Man. One Skeletor

01:01:03.340 --> 01:01:06.619
is regular Skeletor. One Skeletor is God Skeletor.

01:01:09.279 --> 01:01:11.300
The other film that they had put out, I just

01:01:11.300 --> 01:01:13.019
remembered it, the other film that this company

01:01:13.019 --> 01:01:14.460
was putting out at the same time in Masters of

01:01:14.460 --> 01:01:16.840
the Universe that they were hoping that would

01:01:16.840 --> 01:01:20.260
be a success that was not was Superman The Quest

01:01:20.260 --> 01:01:24.800
for Peace. I like that movie, actually. These

01:01:24.800 --> 01:01:28.860
two contributed to the closure of Canon Films.

01:01:29.000 --> 01:01:31.159
The sequel is going to be called Masters of the

01:01:31.159 --> 01:01:36.019
Universe 2 Cyborg. Like I said, the script followed

01:01:36.019 --> 01:01:37.780
He -Man, who returned to Earth to battle Skeletor,

01:01:37.880 --> 01:01:40.340
who had left Earth as a post -apocalyptic wasteland.

01:01:40.760 --> 01:01:43.019
The film was to feature Trapjaw and She -Ra,

01:01:43.119 --> 01:01:47.239
but they had to recast somebody as He -Man, and

01:01:47.239 --> 01:01:50.360
that was going to be Laird Hamilton. Oh, interesting.

01:01:50.800 --> 01:01:52.739
So he was going to be playing He -Man in the

01:01:52.739 --> 01:01:56.699
sequel. Look at Gwildor. Gwildor's an idiot.

01:01:57.780 --> 01:02:00.559
Speaking of which, Billy Barty received a Golden

01:02:00.559 --> 01:02:03.000
Raspberry Award nomination for worst supporting

01:02:03.000 --> 01:02:07.239
actor for this film. He didn't win it. He's not

01:02:07.239 --> 01:02:13.659
the worst out of this movie though. Another thing

01:02:13.659 --> 01:02:15.400
that canon basically since they were going out

01:02:15.400 --> 01:02:17.019
of business they couldn't pay Mattel's fees to

01:02:17.019 --> 01:02:21.260
pull off the sequel. And yeah it says the only

01:02:21.260 --> 01:02:22.880
aspect known about the sequel's screenplay was

01:02:22.880 --> 01:02:24.699
that He -Man would have returned to Earth disguised

01:02:24.699 --> 01:02:29.539
as a professional quarterback. That's just rings

01:02:29.539 --> 01:02:33.460
of awfulness. I do like the idea that the Skeletor

01:02:33.460 --> 01:02:36.039
created a wasteland or a post -apocalyptic area

01:02:36.039 --> 01:02:38.179
out of Earth, kind of like he did with Eternia

01:02:38.179 --> 01:02:40.059
at the beginning of this film. They don't do

01:02:40.059 --> 01:02:44.760
too bad with the flying thing there, going through

01:02:44.760 --> 01:02:47.920
the sky was not too bad of an effect. I like

01:02:47.920 --> 01:02:50.320
that they blame the Russians on this. That is

01:02:50.320 --> 01:02:52.980
such a strickland thing to do. And it's such

01:02:52.980 --> 01:03:00.519
an 80s thing to do, too. Right, right. We have...

01:03:01.369 --> 01:03:03.670
He -Man's showing up in the pink car, driving

01:03:03.670 --> 01:03:05.150
it, apparently. He's learned how to drive in

01:03:05.150 --> 01:03:10.130
the course of the movie. He's coming into Charlie's

01:03:10.130 --> 01:03:12.949
store to get this cosmic key, but not before

01:03:12.949 --> 01:03:16.929
Detective Lubbock has a word with him. Yeah,

01:03:17.949 --> 01:03:23.010
I could not see Laird Hamilton as He -Man. The

01:03:23.010 --> 01:03:25.050
only person I can see as He -Man, I'll stick

01:03:25.050 --> 01:03:27.130
to it until my dying days, is Chris Hemsworth.

01:03:28.130 --> 01:03:33.050
No! Perfect body for it. Maybe, but he's a horrible

01:03:33.050 --> 01:03:37.289
actor for it. Oh, he's a good actor. No, Thor

01:03:37.289 --> 01:03:42.730
is He -Man. No. Yeah, the only... Oh, and that

01:03:42.730 --> 01:03:46.570
isn't even... Wow. And they've locked in on the

01:03:46.570 --> 01:03:50.130
key. Yes, they've locked in on the key. Yay!

01:03:51.110 --> 01:03:58.409
Gwildor is one of the golden girls here. Gwildor

01:03:58.409 --> 01:04:04.460
and Drag. He's Blanche. He's Blanche. If I turn,

01:04:04.539 --> 01:04:06.280
they keep throwing off. Because I have the subtitles

01:04:06.280 --> 01:04:09.460
on. Chromons and things like that. What is that?

01:04:11.559 --> 01:04:14.780
They got a tank just sitting out on the street.

01:04:14.840 --> 01:04:18.659
This is awesome. Evil Lynn has accompanied them

01:04:18.659 --> 01:04:23.719
this time. That's because hopefully she won't

01:04:23.719 --> 01:04:28.300
fail. But she does. She just walks around very

01:04:28.300 --> 01:04:33.260
regal. Yeah. Like she rules everything with Skeletor.

01:04:33.360 --> 01:04:34.980
She looks like she could have played the White

01:04:34.980 --> 01:04:37.239
Witch in the Chronicles of Narnia in that costume.

01:04:37.780 --> 01:04:42.260
Hmm. Oh, Man -at -Arms has his visor down. Yep.

01:04:42.420 --> 01:04:46.340
He -Man sporting a gun again. Yep. It's always

01:04:46.340 --> 01:04:50.539
kind of jarring. Yeah, it is. It's like MacGyver

01:04:50.539 --> 01:04:55.489
carrying a gun. It just doesn't happen. I mean,

01:04:55.510 --> 01:04:57.389
if he made it out of toothpicks, it could happen.

01:04:58.309 --> 01:05:02.809
He didn't believe in guns. He would throw one

01:05:02.809 --> 01:05:04.650
in the garbage and have to make a device out

01:05:04.650 --> 01:05:08.309
of a pen or something first. 20 Metrons. So we

01:05:08.309 --> 01:05:13.329
got Metrons and Chromons. They're trying to find

01:05:13.329 --> 01:05:16.409
a way to get through the sorceress's force field

01:05:16.409 --> 01:05:20.150
when they do get back there. Yep. So now Gwildor

01:05:20.150 --> 01:05:22.530
and Kevin are going to be talking about the universal

01:05:22.530 --> 01:05:26.099
language of music. Mm -hmm. It's a little bit

01:05:26.099 --> 01:05:27.900
weird. Lubbock's like, what the fuck are you

01:05:27.900 --> 01:05:31.039
guys talking about? Yeah. This is a weird part

01:05:31.039 --> 01:05:34.980
of the movie, honestly. Yeah, very. There's that

01:05:34.980 --> 01:05:37.719
tuba in the background. Mm -hmm. Case was in

01:05:37.719 --> 01:05:41.000
the other part of the store. So many drums. So

01:05:41.000 --> 01:05:44.079
many drums. Mm -hmm. So many speakers, keyboards.

01:05:44.320 --> 01:05:47.900
Like, what is going on? Right through the windows.

01:05:48.820 --> 01:05:53.019
Mm. There he goes, shooting people again. That

01:05:53.019 --> 01:05:54.900
doesn't matter. They're robots. You can kill

01:05:54.900 --> 01:05:57.639
robots and nobody cares. Okay. Robots. Fine.

01:05:58.159 --> 01:06:01.659
This is a, this is a, you know, what's the word?

01:06:01.739 --> 01:06:03.880
There's gotta be a word like sexist. That's like

01:06:03.880 --> 01:06:07.440
against robots. Like this is a robotism. Yeah.

01:06:07.500 --> 01:06:09.900
This movie doesn't care about the feelings of

01:06:09.900 --> 01:06:13.199
the robots. You can kill them left and right.

01:06:16.460 --> 01:06:19.940
Basically what it sounded like. I thought I was

01:06:19.940 --> 01:06:23.079
listening to the movie. Thought the volume would

01:06:23.079 --> 01:06:26.920
come back on. I mean, overall, you really got

01:06:26.920 --> 01:06:30.059
to take this movie for what it is. Oh, absolutely.

01:06:31.099 --> 01:06:34.019
Champy. It's cheesy. You know, the effects are

01:06:34.019 --> 01:06:35.800
of its time, although a few of the effects are

01:06:35.800 --> 01:06:38.000
better than the time, but a lot of them are somewhat

01:06:38.000 --> 01:06:41.679
dated by now, obviously. But I don't know. There's

01:06:41.679 --> 01:06:46.849
something that's just fun about it. If you're

01:06:46.849 --> 01:06:49.170
willing to suspend your disbelief on stuff. It's

01:06:49.170 --> 01:06:51.289
just jarring, though, as a He -Man movie because

01:06:51.289 --> 01:06:53.889
of all of the non -He -Man aspects. Exactly.

01:06:53.909 --> 01:06:56.949
That's the thing. It's supposed to be a He -Man

01:06:56.949 --> 01:06:59.170
movie that isn't a He -Man movie. That's the

01:06:59.170 --> 01:07:02.110
biggest problem with it. And the funny thing

01:07:02.110 --> 01:07:04.989
is, I don't mind Gwildor. I like Gwildor as a

01:07:04.989 --> 01:07:08.869
character, as an orco replacement. I like He

01:07:08.869 --> 01:07:11.469
-Man for what he is. I like Man -at -Arms. I'm

01:07:11.469 --> 01:07:15.519
still not a fan of Teela in this, but... My favorite

01:07:15.519 --> 01:07:19.059
things out of this are Skeletor, the Cosmic Key,

01:07:19.219 --> 01:07:22.260
and Lubbock, honestly. Those are my top three

01:07:22.260 --> 01:07:24.820
things from this movie. I think you can get away

01:07:24.820 --> 01:07:26.699
with Gwildor. It's when you have Gwildor and

01:07:26.699 --> 01:07:29.440
Blade and Karg and Sauron or whatever his name

01:07:29.440 --> 01:07:33.059
is. Not Sauron, but Sauron and all these different

01:07:33.059 --> 01:07:34.159
things. Then you have some of the characters

01:07:34.159 --> 01:07:37.610
not looking alike. And then you have most of

01:07:37.610 --> 01:07:40.489
it taking place on Earth. And then you have robot

01:07:40.489 --> 01:07:42.690
armies. And then you have He -Man shooting people.

01:07:42.829 --> 01:07:45.070
There's so many things that are disconnected

01:07:45.070 --> 01:07:48.010
from the universe that we have learned about

01:07:48.010 --> 01:07:51.949
in the previous X number of years that it was

01:07:51.949 --> 01:07:55.969
just jarring to watch. I don't know. That would

01:07:55.969 --> 01:07:58.969
be like a Transformers movie. And it had Optimus

01:07:58.969 --> 01:08:01.750
Prime and Megatron. And then all the other characters

01:08:01.750 --> 01:08:06.239
were new to that movie. He'd be like... And they

01:08:06.239 --> 01:08:08.980
weren't even the same... I don't know. Maybe

01:08:08.980 --> 01:08:12.440
Transformers isn't a good example, but... That's

01:08:12.440 --> 01:08:14.400
one thing Michael Bay did get right, is he let

01:08:14.400 --> 01:08:16.640
them do the character names and the bumblebees

01:08:16.640 --> 01:08:18.819
and this and that. Haswell probably told him

01:08:18.819 --> 01:08:22.220
that. And again, who knows what was told to these

01:08:22.220 --> 01:08:25.239
filmmakers from Mattel at the time, other than

01:08:25.239 --> 01:08:27.779
the fact that He -Man doesn't kill people or

01:08:27.779 --> 01:08:30.140
whatever kind of thing, yet here he is with a

01:08:30.140 --> 01:08:33.810
gun shooting at robots. Very true. If you're

01:08:33.810 --> 01:08:36.689
going to do the whole Batman rule of this character

01:08:36.689 --> 01:08:40.310
doesn't kill, you should not be giving him a

01:08:40.310 --> 01:08:44.130
laser pistol. Sword fight, fine, whatever. He's

01:08:44.130 --> 01:08:47.130
not going to kill a character with a sword. Basically,

01:08:47.250 --> 01:08:51.609
in the cartoon, the way they do it is he throws

01:08:51.609 --> 01:08:55.590
people or he punches somebody or something like

01:08:55.590 --> 01:08:59.430
that. He knocks them out. It's funny because

01:08:59.430 --> 01:09:00.550
they had this whole movie where they're like,

01:09:00.630 --> 01:09:03.800
don't kill anybody. The cartoon did a better

01:09:03.800 --> 01:09:06.359
job of showing that because he never had a gun.

01:09:06.460 --> 01:09:08.300
He didn't even come close to doing something

01:09:08.300 --> 01:09:10.079
like that. This is an interesting part that we're

01:09:10.079 --> 01:09:12.079
kind of skipping past here, but Courtney Cox

01:09:12.079 --> 01:09:14.699
sees a vision of her mom out there and for some

01:09:14.699 --> 01:09:17.220
reason believes that that is possible. While

01:09:17.220 --> 01:09:20.739
Lubbock and you fight over a gun. This is just

01:09:20.739 --> 01:09:24.779
a bad... I understand that you have a loss. When

01:09:24.779 --> 01:09:27.479
you lose a parent, I've been there. and like

01:09:27.479 --> 01:09:30.399
yeah when i was 10 did i like picture like oh

01:09:30.399 --> 01:09:32.119
you know he's you know my dad's just gonna be

01:09:32.119 --> 01:09:34.159
back one day and it's gonna be like a dream or

01:09:34.159 --> 01:09:35.659
something or whatever like you go through that

01:09:35.659 --> 01:09:38.119
type of thing but she is a grown -ass adult at

01:09:38.119 --> 01:09:39.720
this point or at least a high schooler like you

01:09:39.720 --> 01:09:41.560
can't imagine that this is really your mom at

01:09:41.560 --> 01:09:45.479
this point yeah like you know that she's dead

01:09:45.479 --> 01:09:47.399
and this is a creepy point in the movie too like

01:09:47.399 --> 01:09:50.079
oh this this gives me the chills this was some

01:09:50.079 --> 01:09:53.670
awesome special effects though It gave me the

01:09:53.670 --> 01:09:55.850
chills just now, just even seeing it again, even

01:09:55.850 --> 01:09:59.770
though I already knew what was coming. She's

01:09:59.770 --> 01:10:02.310
her mom now, but as we know, she's actually Eva

01:10:02.310 --> 01:10:04.989
Lynn, which is one of the best things they did

01:10:04.989 --> 01:10:06.770
in the movie as far as recapturing something

01:10:06.770 --> 01:10:10.090
that would have happened in the cartoon. Because

01:10:10.090 --> 01:10:11.449
that's something that we would have seen multiple

01:10:11.449 --> 01:10:13.210
times in the cartoon where somebody posed as

01:10:13.210 --> 01:10:15.029
somebody else, whether it was Skeletor, Eva Lynn,

01:10:15.130 --> 01:10:19.770
or whoever. And as Lubbock and the two kids are

01:10:19.770 --> 01:10:21.630
fighting here, I almost forgot Lubbock was a

01:10:21.630 --> 01:10:26.090
cop in this. This music story got a lot of play.

01:10:26.710 --> 01:10:30.289
Now Gwildor's got a gun. Gwildor has the gun

01:10:30.289 --> 01:10:33.590
that was on the floor. He says they're acting

01:10:33.590 --> 01:10:38.449
like twerkdoms. I don't know what that is. Julie's

01:10:38.449 --> 01:10:43.750
coming back. My mom's here. She wants the thing

01:10:43.750 --> 01:10:45.850
and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, and she runs

01:10:45.850 --> 01:10:48.130
out and gives it to the bad guy. Number one,

01:10:48.149 --> 01:10:50.489
why would your mom be alive? Number two, why

01:10:50.489 --> 01:10:54.390
would your mom want this thing? Yep. Like, it's

01:10:54.390 --> 01:10:59.729
so bad. Dun, dun, dun. Like, this is hot rod

01:10:59.729 --> 01:11:07.109
bad right here. I'm just kidding. Evil Lynn scares

01:11:07.109 --> 01:11:08.670
the crap out of me. That was Courtney Cox's best

01:11:08.670 --> 01:11:11.819
acting moment, I think. Yep. initial reaction

01:11:11.819 --> 01:11:14.680
where she's just screaming. And Evelyn pulls

01:11:14.680 --> 01:11:17.300
off without ever having to lift a finger, pulls

01:11:17.300 --> 01:11:20.539
off the feet that they were trying to do. So

01:11:20.539 --> 01:11:23.739
she comes across as a pretty competent bad guy.

01:11:24.899 --> 01:11:27.659
Absolutely. Records 99 cents. You can get those

01:11:27.659 --> 01:11:30.680
records for 99 cents. Seems expensive for 1987.

01:11:34.680 --> 01:11:37.500
One of the price tags was $4 .99 and the rest

01:11:37.500 --> 01:11:43.489
said 99 cents. Yeah. Here's more red laser, blue

01:11:43.489 --> 01:11:46.109
laser. I think there was a green one in there

01:11:46.109 --> 01:11:51.069
too. Yeah, there was earlier. Oh, red and green

01:11:51.069 --> 01:11:56.210
laser. Great. Something was off in the coloring.

01:11:56.630 --> 01:12:01.090
So much fire. Fire everywhere. It's laying waste.

01:12:01.670 --> 01:12:05.590
It's a teenage wasteland. Oh, we're looking for

01:12:05.590 --> 01:12:10.869
more guns. More guns. This movie had more guns

01:12:10.869 --> 01:12:14.000
and the entirety than the whole series did in

01:12:14.000 --> 01:12:21.579
130 episodes. Pretty much. Yeah. Cause I don't

01:12:21.579 --> 01:12:23.100
even know if the series ever had a gun, did it?

01:12:24.000 --> 01:12:27.800
I mean, man in arms had blasters and things and,

01:12:27.899 --> 01:12:31.939
and, and, and some of the vehicles had guns on

01:12:31.939 --> 01:12:35.800
them, but actual like revolvers and shotguns

01:12:35.800 --> 01:12:38.960
and things like that. No. I mean, I guess it's

01:12:38.960 --> 01:12:40.399
set in Earth, so what kind of weapons are going

01:12:40.399 --> 01:12:44.079
to be in existence in Earth? Exactly, yeah. It's

01:12:44.079 --> 01:12:46.199
just weird that so many characters are brandishing

01:12:46.199 --> 01:12:50.659
them. I'm surprised he's still alive. That's

01:12:50.659 --> 01:12:53.859
pure Strickland right there. Mm -hmm. Yep. Get

01:12:53.859 --> 01:12:55.819
off my lawn. That's literally what I... Every

01:12:55.819 --> 01:12:57.560
time somebody uses that phrase, like an old person

01:12:57.560 --> 01:12:59.640
saying, get off my lawn, I think of his character.

01:13:00.979 --> 01:13:10.220
And back to the future. Yep. You slackers! It's

01:13:10.220 --> 01:13:13.800
an interesting version of a sky sled. Yeah. A

01:13:13.800 --> 01:13:16.699
much bigger vehicle that we're using. Evelyn's

01:13:16.699 --> 01:13:20.199
caressing the cosmic key, obviously having thoughts

01:13:20.199 --> 01:13:22.979
of what she can do with its power, maybe. Mm

01:13:22.979 --> 01:13:29.840
-hmm. He -Man's going out in the streets. Oop.

01:13:30.159 --> 01:13:34.039
Someone's opening a door. Mm -hmm. Here comes

01:13:34.039 --> 01:13:43.970
Skeletor. Dun, dun, dun. By the sorceress. That's

01:13:43.970 --> 01:13:51.109
a phrase. And here comes the Skeletor on Earth.

01:13:51.449 --> 01:13:54.550
Hell on Earth. I do like the army shot, though.

01:13:55.270 --> 01:13:58.470
It makes it look okay. The fact that they've

01:13:58.470 --> 01:13:59.930
been using almost every scene, though, is a little

01:13:59.930 --> 01:14:02.550
bit off -putting. Well, true, but I mean... If

01:14:02.550 --> 01:14:04.050
they would have waited until this scene and had

01:14:04.050 --> 01:14:05.649
them all march in with Skeletor, that would have

01:14:05.649 --> 01:14:07.130
been a lot better. And they got the hoverboards.

01:14:07.609 --> 01:14:11.289
Yep. Maybe not the greatest effects, but it's

01:14:11.289 --> 01:14:15.289
okay. At least it ain't pink. Skeletor looks

01:14:15.289 --> 01:14:17.829
badass when he comes in here, though. He does.

01:14:21.250 --> 01:14:26.449
So great. I like the things that they did at

01:14:26.449 --> 01:14:29.270
the end of his gloves, like the fingertips. Yeah,

01:14:29.289 --> 01:14:33.470
that is so cool. I made him look badass. This

01:14:33.470 --> 01:14:35.430
vehicle looks somewhat badass. It's almost Darth

01:14:35.430 --> 01:14:39.890
Vader -esque. Oh, yeah. What's all this? It looks

01:14:39.890 --> 01:14:45.689
like Darth Vader's bathroom. I like the fact

01:14:45.689 --> 01:14:47.310
that he's so elevated, like he's so high off

01:14:47.310 --> 01:14:50.170
the ground. Oh, yeah. Makes it look cool. And

01:14:50.170 --> 01:14:51.729
then he's got like gunners to the sides of him.

01:14:53.029 --> 01:14:56.810
Offset. Everything to do with Skeletor in this

01:14:56.810 --> 01:15:07.140
film is amazing. Evil in. Mm hmm. She's telling

01:15:07.140 --> 01:15:16.859
her evilness. Yep. I have the key, my lord. He

01:15:16.859 --> 01:15:21.819
wants to know about He -Man. He -Man says that

01:15:21.819 --> 01:15:23.979
he eluded them. That obviously does not make

01:15:23.979 --> 01:15:29.380
Skeletor happy. Air Centurions, find him. A year

01:15:29.380 --> 01:15:31.460
later, there would be a cartoon called Centurions.

01:15:32.880 --> 01:15:36.149
Or later that year, maybe even. I don't remember

01:15:36.149 --> 01:15:39.750
if they started in 87 or not. Air Centurions.

01:15:41.390 --> 01:15:46.189
This is a weird aspect visually though. Some

01:15:46.189 --> 01:15:47.810
of this I remember looking a little cheesy even

01:15:47.810 --> 01:15:53.270
back then. Oh yeah. It's all very cheesy. So

01:15:53.270 --> 01:15:55.090
he shot that person. Was the Air Centurion a

01:15:55.090 --> 01:16:02.670
robot too? Probably. I would hope so considering

01:16:02.670 --> 01:16:06.650
He -Man's not supposed to kill anybody. Right?

01:16:06.650 --> 01:16:13.109
This is like one of our climactic showdowns on

01:16:13.109 --> 01:16:18.210
Earth here. Yes, yes it is. Centurion's cartoon

01:16:18.210 --> 01:16:22.329
debuted in... Oh, I guess it was in 1986, so

01:16:22.329 --> 01:16:24.430
it came beforehand. Came beforehand, yeah, so

01:16:24.430 --> 01:16:26.810
this is a reference to it. That's what I figured.

01:16:26.890 --> 01:16:30.630
I remember Centurion was... Centurion's was before

01:16:30.630 --> 01:16:45.600
this. Now He -Man's gonna ride his own hoverboard.

01:16:48.920 --> 01:16:55.819
There he goes. Jeez. So he's got the hoverboard,

01:16:55.899 --> 01:17:00.119
he's got his gun, his sword's holstered. Mm -hmm.

01:17:03.600 --> 01:17:07.739
Graphics aren't terrible right there. Nope. I

01:17:07.739 --> 01:17:09.779
mean, for the time that this movie was made,

01:17:09.840 --> 01:17:13.699
the graphics on it are really, really good, depending

01:17:13.699 --> 01:17:16.640
on which scene you're in. I mean, there's good

01:17:16.640 --> 01:17:19.140
moments, but I mean, there's some, it's like

01:17:19.140 --> 01:17:21.439
a 50 -50. Like, some of them are some real good

01:17:21.439 --> 01:17:22.739
moments that you're like, oh, this is beyond

01:17:22.739 --> 01:17:24.819
its time. And then some of them are like, oof,

01:17:24.859 --> 01:17:27.939
this looks like a weird computer animated video

01:17:27.939 --> 01:17:32.699
game. Yep. Like, when they're at a distance on

01:17:32.699 --> 01:17:34.779
those hoverboards, it looks really bad. When

01:17:34.779 --> 01:17:39.239
they're close up, not as bad. Skeletor just slowly

01:17:39.239 --> 01:17:42.439
making down Washington Avenue here. Whatever

01:17:42.439 --> 01:17:49.399
street this is. He's trying to find somewhere

01:17:49.399 --> 01:17:55.119
to stick his grapple. That's the wrong place.

01:17:55.479 --> 01:17:59.739
His shoulder got shot off. There you go. Red

01:17:59.739 --> 01:18:03.739
laser actually hit somebody. Wow. That must be

01:18:03.739 --> 01:18:05.630
a first. Yeah, I know. You could probably record

01:18:05.630 --> 01:18:08.010
that down in history, how many times that's been

01:18:08.010 --> 01:18:12.289
successful. Mm -hmm. He -Man doing a loop -de

01:18:12.289 --> 01:18:14.710
-loop. This is like the scene in Star Wars and

01:18:14.710 --> 01:18:19.609
the Force of Endor. Mm -hmm. When they're trying

01:18:19.609 --> 01:18:25.109
to... Yeah, there's a lot of copying from other...

01:18:25.109 --> 01:18:27.229
A lot of homaging, copying, whatever you want

01:18:27.229 --> 01:18:31.159
to call it, from other things. Yeah, this is

01:18:31.159 --> 01:18:37.600
very Moons of Endor type scene here. First, I

01:18:37.600 --> 01:18:39.460
didn't think that guy realized he was right behind

01:18:39.460 --> 01:18:44.340
him. It's also funny because we have Gwildor

01:18:44.340 --> 01:18:46.579
that's doing most of the work with the cosmic

01:18:46.579 --> 01:18:48.399
key and the different devices where normally

01:18:48.399 --> 01:18:51.460
Man -at -Arms would be that person. So it's kind

01:18:51.460 --> 01:18:54.060
of interesting in that respect. Well, you got

01:18:54.060 --> 01:18:56.420
to give a bearded orco something to do in this

01:18:56.420 --> 01:18:59.500
movie besides eat chicken dressed in drag. Oh,

01:18:59.520 --> 01:19:01.140
Skeletor just coming up like a creep right here.

01:19:01.460 --> 01:19:05.920
That's such a good scene. Yeah, it is. Bye -bye.

01:19:09.659 --> 01:19:12.439
That's like, so Emperor Palpatine. Oh yeah, very

01:19:12.439 --> 01:19:14.260
much so. I know I'm making a lot of Star Wars

01:19:14.260 --> 01:19:15.739
references, but that's what I'm thinking of as

01:19:15.739 --> 01:19:17.960
I'm watching this now. Absolutely. Because that's

01:19:17.960 --> 01:19:20.159
all you can think about. Like you think you have

01:19:20.159 --> 01:19:21.760
them and he just can be like, Nope, I got a force

01:19:21.760 --> 01:19:30.119
field bitches. Throw down your weapons. And your

01:19:30.119 --> 01:19:33.579
other weapon. And your other weapon. Could have

01:19:33.579 --> 01:19:40.100
been a comedy sketch right there. You minute

01:19:40.100 --> 01:19:44.619
minion. That's what Skeletor called Gwildor.

01:19:44.659 --> 01:19:50.619
That's great. I would never knowingly serve the

01:19:50.619 --> 01:19:54.180
lord of Snake Mountain. They originally wanted

01:19:54.180 --> 01:19:57.319
Snake Mountain in this, and they had the drawings

01:19:57.319 --> 01:19:58.899
of it and everything and all the concept art

01:19:58.899 --> 01:20:00.399
and the design, but then they weren't able to

01:20:00.399 --> 01:20:06.060
do it for budgetary reasons. Unfortunately. Because

01:20:06.060 --> 01:20:10.859
that would have been cool to see. I guess they

01:20:10.859 --> 01:20:13.680
even had designs for Shira for the sequel and

01:20:13.680 --> 01:20:15.039
different things like that. She would have been

01:20:15.039 --> 01:20:17.039
in a little bit of a different getup, so I don't

01:20:17.039 --> 01:20:29.789
know if I would have been for that. Like just

01:20:29.789 --> 01:20:32.750
the way that he's able to emote without saying

01:20:32.750 --> 01:20:36.449
anything and that much makeup and mask and things

01:20:36.449 --> 01:20:39.949
like that. Oh yeah, absolutely. Emotions and

01:20:39.949 --> 01:20:41.930
say so much without saying anything. It's really

01:20:41.930 --> 01:20:45.170
good. He's clearly probably the best actor in

01:20:45.170 --> 01:20:49.050
this film. Oh, easily. I mean, there was a few

01:20:49.050 --> 01:20:50.890
others that did a lot of acting, but like, I

01:20:50.890 --> 01:20:55.770
feel like he's, he's the star. Yeah. I mean,

01:20:55.810 --> 01:21:01.250
he even takes it over. Lundgren. Especially at

01:21:01.250 --> 01:21:03.029
the time, too. He was probably the biggest name

01:21:03.029 --> 01:21:06.470
that was involved. Yep. Because Dolph Lundgren

01:21:06.470 --> 01:21:11.470
hadn't done much at this point. I think Rocky

01:21:11.470 --> 01:21:16.170
was about it. Yeah, Rocky IV, V, or whatever

01:21:16.170 --> 01:21:20.050
Rocky he's in. So we have just about everybody

01:21:20.050 --> 01:21:23.569
together now. Just about, yeah. Pretty much.

01:21:24.119 --> 01:21:25.619
Except for, obviously, the sorceress who's back

01:21:25.619 --> 01:21:28.399
being captured on Eternia. Yep. Skeletor laughing.

01:21:29.880 --> 01:21:33.979
Mm -hmm. Oh, He -Man and Skeletor, one -on -one.

01:21:35.960 --> 01:21:50.699
He wants He -Man to return to Eternia with him

01:21:50.699 --> 01:21:54.750
as his slave. Mm -hmm. To save his friends, or

01:21:54.750 --> 01:21:59.810
to perish with them on this stupid planet. Ultimatums.

01:22:00.090 --> 01:22:03.149
Such a villain thing to do. Yep. Return to Eternia.

01:22:03.189 --> 01:22:06.270
Be my slave. You'll sign a million autographs

01:22:06.270 --> 01:22:08.409
every day until you die. All I can think of is

01:22:08.409 --> 01:22:11.430
what Swackhammer wanted to do with Michael Jordan

01:22:11.430 --> 01:22:16.409
in Space Jam. So He -Man throws his sword down,

01:22:16.590 --> 01:22:21.170
gets put into shackles. Yep. Because let's face

01:22:21.170 --> 01:22:26.010
it, that sword ain't no power sword. Frank Langella

01:22:26.010 --> 01:22:27.970
just literally motions him off with a flick of

01:22:27.970 --> 01:22:33.470
his hand. Yep. Away you fly, away shoe. Good

01:22:33.470 --> 01:22:39.750
stuff. So that is our resolution, basically,

01:22:39.770 --> 01:22:44.029
of what's happening here on Earth. Yeah, pretty

01:22:44.029 --> 01:22:46.430
much on Earth. They then go back to Eternia here

01:22:46.430 --> 01:22:52.890
in a few minutes. He -Man is my slave. Let them

01:22:52.890 --> 01:22:56.649
rot. That's what he's saying about all the other

01:22:56.649 --> 01:23:01.670
people. Then he slowly descends. Jesus. I'm going

01:23:01.670 --> 01:23:04.569
to put my medical chair down now, thank you.

01:23:04.630 --> 01:23:06.789
It was going that fast. It's like when you're

01:23:06.789 --> 01:23:08.630
waiting for somebody's chair to go up an elevator

01:23:08.630 --> 01:23:13.689
on one of those lifts. It's like the old lady

01:23:13.689 --> 01:23:17.710
chair in Gremlins. Yeah, basically. Except it

01:23:17.710 --> 01:23:21.029
never goes fast. Shoot her out the window or

01:23:21.029 --> 01:23:24.180
whatever it does. Mm -hmm. So now they think

01:23:24.180 --> 01:23:25.779
they're stuck and there's no way for them to

01:23:25.779 --> 01:23:28.359
get back to Eternia because Skeletor and all

01:23:28.359 --> 01:23:30.319
these people are going through that gate. Mm

01:23:30.319 --> 01:23:31.659
-hmm. They're going to close it. They have the

01:23:31.659 --> 01:23:33.979
Cosmic Key. So everybody else is going to be

01:23:33.979 --> 01:23:38.180
stuck. So we're just watching them go through

01:23:38.180 --> 01:23:43.739
that gate, disappear. Mm -hmm. And now we have

01:23:43.739 --> 01:23:48.319
ourselves a little conundrum. Yep. Gwildor and

01:23:48.319 --> 01:23:54.850
the humans. Quildor and the Humans. That sounds

01:23:54.850 --> 01:23:58.909
like a TV spinoff. Could be. Like Mark and Mindy,

01:23:58.949 --> 01:24:03.510
Quildor and the Humans. Yep. I know that probably

01:24:03.510 --> 01:24:06.310
is a real shotgun, but the shotgun on Lovick's

01:24:06.310 --> 01:24:12.890
arm there does not look... When he had it up

01:24:12.890 --> 01:24:15.369
against his shoulder, it just looked like a completely

01:24:15.369 --> 01:24:23.600
fake gun. Here, let me put that in some water.

01:24:23.699 --> 01:24:27.079
Oh, that's some of the best makeup in the entire

01:24:27.079 --> 01:24:30.720
movie besides Frank Langella. That makes you

01:24:30.720 --> 01:24:35.720
hungry, doesn't it? No, it does not at all. Put

01:24:35.720 --> 01:24:37.460
this wet towel over it. That way we soaked in

01:24:37.460 --> 01:24:40.060
some dirty pool water. Exactly. Good thing I

01:24:40.060 --> 01:24:42.520
ate dinner way before we recorded this commentary.

01:24:43.000 --> 01:24:46.539
In her blood, only our sorceress can heal her

01:24:46.539 --> 01:24:51.060
now. So now we have another. element that we

01:24:51.060 --> 01:24:56.380
have to work around here. Mm -hmm. You just don't

01:24:56.380 --> 01:25:01.600
get it. Yep. You should just date Teela instead.

01:25:03.720 --> 01:25:09.039
I don't know about that, but okay. Or Gwildor

01:25:09.039 --> 01:25:14.819
in drag. Yeah. The way Gwildor's cheeks hang

01:25:14.819 --> 01:25:22.310
down over his beard always got me. I wonder if

01:25:22.310 --> 01:25:24.449
that outfit still exists somewhere, like if it's

01:25:24.449 --> 01:25:30.170
on display somewhere. Or if it was too much connected

01:25:30.170 --> 01:25:31.949
to his face that they had to peel it off or something.

01:25:32.510 --> 01:25:39.189
Hmm, not sure. Oh, they just need to play the

01:25:39.189 --> 01:25:43.010
melody that the key played. They don't need the

01:25:43.010 --> 01:25:47.289
cosmic key, they just need the music. Luckily,

01:25:47.369 --> 01:25:54.930
Kevin's a music guy. Yeah, luckily. That was

01:25:54.930 --> 01:25:59.050
great. That effect was terrible though. Yeah.

01:25:59.489 --> 01:26:01.850
Or whatever. She shoots it and then it cuts to

01:26:01.850 --> 01:26:05.869
a scene that doesn't have it in it anymore. Like

01:26:05.869 --> 01:26:11.069
a blip. Like we didn't see that edit. This part

01:26:11.069 --> 01:26:12.810
has been edited. Ha ha ha. You'll never know

01:26:12.810 --> 01:26:20.239
what was actually here. How did you do that?

01:26:20.279 --> 01:26:27.539
How do you do music from memory? You learn. It's

01:26:27.539 --> 01:26:33.960
called memorization. This part is so cheesy.

01:26:41.220 --> 01:26:44.520
It's supposed to be this epic device that exists

01:26:44.520 --> 01:26:47.699
in... Oh, he's got to do something. Metron's

01:26:47.699 --> 01:26:50.770
pole word. I don't know what that means. You

01:26:50.770 --> 01:26:52.289
know, Eternia, you have these devices that are

01:26:52.289 --> 01:26:53.770
magical and stuff like that. You're on Earth

01:26:53.770 --> 01:26:56.050
and we just have to redo a tune and it does the

01:26:56.050 --> 01:26:59.649
same thing. Kind of takes away some of the magic

01:26:59.649 --> 01:27:03.289
and mystique behind it. Well, it had to be simplified

01:27:03.289 --> 01:27:05.250
for the humans because they don't have the other

01:27:05.250 --> 01:27:08.170
device. At this point, you can't hear it, obviously,

01:27:08.250 --> 01:27:10.270
but this is when Kevin tries to play it that

01:27:10.270 --> 01:27:12.609
he's not good enough to remember it 100 % right.

01:27:12.750 --> 01:27:15.329
He's just a stupid keyboard person. There's a

01:27:15.329 --> 01:27:17.130
million people like me out in the world. I'm

01:27:17.130 --> 01:27:19.609
a nobody. Blah, blah, blah. So now they have

01:27:19.609 --> 01:27:22.430
to pump up his self -esteem and confidence back

01:27:22.430 --> 01:27:26.590
up. Yeah. Good lord. This is like the PSA in

01:27:26.590 --> 01:27:36.069
the movie. Mm -hmm. Pretty much, yeah. Gwildar.

01:27:39.770 --> 01:27:42.890
It's like a cross between Hobbit and Yoda and

01:27:42.890 --> 01:27:47.869
the dude from Spaceballs and Orko. They just

01:27:47.869 --> 01:27:55.789
said something about Tesseract. I don't even

01:27:55.789 --> 01:27:57.829
see Orko in here. They had a Tesseract in here

01:27:57.829 --> 01:28:00.109
before it was known. They had an Octodirectifier.

01:28:00.670 --> 01:28:04.729
They got Chromoids. They got Metrons. Somebody's

01:28:04.729 --> 01:28:09.970
just having fun making up words. You can see

01:28:09.970 --> 01:28:12.909
down below where they have the skulls and the

01:28:12.909 --> 01:28:14.510
different stuff compared to up here where they

01:28:14.510 --> 01:28:16.920
have... if you see off to the side, you can't

01:28:16.920 --> 01:28:18.140
see it in that scene, but they'll, they'll have

01:28:18.140 --> 01:28:20.840
more of like, just like natural statues, like

01:28:20.840 --> 01:28:23.439
that look like nice, but everything down below

01:28:23.439 --> 01:28:25.119
is like skulls. Like right here, you can see

01:28:25.119 --> 01:28:27.539
people like statues of people on the upper part,

01:28:27.600 --> 01:28:28.960
which is the good power. And then down below

01:28:28.960 --> 01:28:30.539
you can see all kinds of different skulls and

01:28:30.539 --> 01:28:36.439
like more demonic type creations. Cause up top

01:28:36.439 --> 01:28:39.060
is heaven down below is held. It's a very, it's

01:28:39.060 --> 01:28:47.140
a very similar, uh, yeah. Aesthetic. The powers

01:28:47.140 --> 01:28:49.340
of the universe will be vested in me and I make

01:28:49.340 --> 01:28:53.159
you man and wife. No, I'm just kidding. He did

01:28:53.159 --> 01:28:55.539
say the powers vested in me, though. Look at

01:28:55.539 --> 01:28:58.220
Sorceress. Not looking good. No, she's almost

01:28:58.220 --> 01:29:00.859
dead. She's looking like Skeletor a little bit.

01:29:06.880 --> 01:29:09.159
It's my destiny. It is my right. This is one

01:29:09.159 --> 01:29:10.659
of the better parts for Frank Langella when he

01:29:10.659 --> 01:29:15.180
has some of these almost like monologues. not

01:29:15.180 --> 01:29:16.439
quite because there's some other people that

01:29:16.439 --> 01:29:18.880
interject lines here and there, but good stuff.

01:29:19.000 --> 01:29:20.920
He writes one of the, one of these lines he came

01:29:20.920 --> 01:29:24.579
up with on his own. It's not in the script. I

01:29:24.579 --> 01:29:27.840
don't think he said it yet, but it'll come up

01:29:27.840 --> 01:29:33.300
here. I think in a little bit. Oh, look, the

01:29:33.300 --> 01:29:38.579
sword with no power. Yes. Sorceress, the sword

01:29:38.579 --> 01:29:45.119
of gray skull. He held it up like it weighed

01:29:45.119 --> 01:29:48.279
nothing. Because it probably does weigh nothing.

01:29:48.479 --> 01:29:51.439
I don't know. Everything else weighs like 50

01:29:51.439 --> 01:29:54.500
pounds as far as costumes go. So he puts the

01:29:54.500 --> 01:29:58.539
sword in that holder next to his throne. That's

01:29:58.539 --> 01:30:00.800
doing something, apparently. He was carrying

01:30:00.800 --> 01:30:03.260
around kind of like a Havoc staff. Yeah, it is

01:30:03.260 --> 01:30:07.220
kind of a Havoc staff. Pretty close. Close enough,

01:30:07.560 --> 01:30:11.539
yeah. He's got a human shackled. Go ahead. I

01:30:11.539 --> 01:30:15.279
was trying to look and see if it really did look

01:30:15.279 --> 01:30:18.279
similar to what the actual Havoc staff looks

01:30:18.279 --> 01:30:22.000
like. And it does a little bit, but not much.

01:30:22.680 --> 01:30:24.859
He says a line there that when the powers of

01:30:24.859 --> 01:30:29.899
Grayskull will become mine. When the great eye

01:30:29.899 --> 01:30:33.319
opens, people of eternity shall see you kneeling

01:30:33.319 --> 01:30:48.220
to me. Just before you die. Such a good standoff

01:30:48.220 --> 01:30:53.439
between Skeletor and He -Man here. Mm -hmm. And

01:30:53.439 --> 01:30:54.899
what can he do? This is like the part when you're

01:30:54.899 --> 01:30:57.140
watching his movie where you're like, how does

01:30:57.140 --> 01:31:01.039
he... This is the red laser whip. Mm -hmm. You're

01:31:01.039 --> 01:31:02.600
like, how does he get out of this? He's shackled.

01:31:03.380 --> 01:31:05.619
Sorcerers can't help. He's got Skeletor, Evelyn,

01:31:05.800 --> 01:31:07.779
all the bad people. His friends are on Earth.

01:31:08.119 --> 01:31:13.260
Only person that can save him is Lubbock. Lord

01:31:13.260 --> 01:31:18.550
have mercy. Yeah, when President, or not President,

01:31:18.630 --> 01:31:22.010
wow, when Principal Strickland is the only person

01:31:22.010 --> 01:31:23.989
that can save you, you're in trouble. I'm sure

01:31:23.989 --> 01:31:25.930
he was President Strickland in one timeline,

01:31:26.250 --> 01:31:35.689
at least. All right. I thought they destroyed

01:31:35.689 --> 01:31:41.710
that pink car. Apparently not. Kevin's back to

01:31:41.710 --> 01:31:45.890
save the day. Remember that, folks. Mm -hmm.

01:31:47.170 --> 01:31:53.289
Thank God you weren't him, because... That's

01:31:53.289 --> 01:31:58.729
too cool to be him. All right. We got a keyboard,

01:31:58.930 --> 01:32:02.069
which is basically a cosmic key. Pretty much,

01:32:02.210 --> 01:32:05.829
yeah. Axel's over there crying and... Crying

01:32:05.829 --> 01:32:11.090
and dying and... All from a leg burn. From a

01:32:11.090 --> 01:32:14.130
venomous leg burn. That'll do it to you, man.

01:32:18.920 --> 01:32:22.680
I'll have this ready in a pre -ton. Everything's

01:32:22.680 --> 01:32:27.460
got to be a ton or a mon or cron. Chromon, pre

01:32:27.460 --> 01:32:36.359
-ton. Young love. This thing probably was broken

01:32:36.359 --> 01:32:37.739
in real life. This is probably why they were

01:32:37.739 --> 01:32:39.079
saying that they were so hard to keep together.

01:32:39.880 --> 01:32:46.829
Yeah, mostly. One of the broken ones. Yep. Oh,

01:32:46.890 --> 01:32:50.029
that does look like it hurts. Yeah, it's bleeding

01:32:50.029 --> 01:32:52.069
a little bit. Even Skeletor's flinching a little

01:32:52.069 --> 01:32:59.029
bit. Mm -hmm. Enough. Where is your strength?

01:33:01.510 --> 01:33:10.350
It's in the sword. The fake one. It's rubbing

01:33:10.350 --> 01:33:13.729
it in that the sorceress is dying, I mean. Yep.

01:33:20.239 --> 01:33:22.760
So much acting with his eyes. There's so much

01:33:22.760 --> 01:33:24.539
acting with his eyes, but the lights and the

01:33:24.539 --> 01:33:28.020
shadows in this scene on his face. Oh, so good.

01:33:28.579 --> 01:33:31.699
Alpha and the Omega. It's always a good phrase.

01:33:37.220 --> 01:33:39.279
Oh, I forgot we get super Skeletor eventually.

01:33:39.859 --> 01:33:42.819
Yeah, God Skeletor, yep. I didn't like that.

01:33:44.039 --> 01:33:47.520
I actually did. I thought it was cool. I just

01:33:47.520 --> 01:33:51.659
thought he looked too gold. When that happens.

01:33:52.100 --> 01:33:54.479
True. I'll see what I think about it this time

01:33:54.479 --> 01:34:03.939
when I see it. At least Super Skeletor is...

01:34:03.939 --> 01:34:09.399
Or God Skeletor is more Langella than Super Shredder

01:34:09.399 --> 01:34:13.359
was just plain old Kevin Nash. Right. That's

01:34:13.359 --> 01:34:15.739
a cool hologram that's projecting to all of Eternia,

01:34:15.739 --> 01:34:18.140
apparently, or at least these six people. Yep.

01:34:22.800 --> 01:34:25.760
I do like the hologram projections were supposedly

01:34:25.760 --> 01:34:30.000
planet wide or whatever. Right. It's one way

01:34:30.000 --> 01:34:38.399
to have a PA system. Now I, Skeletor, am master

01:34:38.399 --> 01:34:43.619
of the universe. The wall behind him is opening.

01:34:45.060 --> 01:34:48.359
Sorceress looking real bad. Beastman still looking

01:34:48.359 --> 01:34:52.300
bad from like 300 scenes ago. Nobody has fixed

01:34:52.300 --> 01:34:55.899
it. Yeah, Beastman looks bad, and then Card just

01:34:55.899 --> 01:34:59.319
looks confused. Now these gold fairies are running

01:34:59.319 --> 01:35:02.800
around. They enter Skeletor's head, and he's

01:35:02.800 --> 01:35:13.119
glowing. The power fills me. He's on fire. Orange

01:35:13.119 --> 01:35:15.640
lightning. We had red lightning earlier. Very

01:35:15.640 --> 01:35:18.760
Emperor Palpatine -like now. We even got the

01:35:18.760 --> 01:35:21.630
lightning bolt. Oh, yeah. Very much so, yeah.

01:35:21.890 --> 01:35:37.350
Blue. They're orange instead. Mm -hmm. Unstoppable

01:35:37.350 --> 01:35:48.510
power. My friend's like, uh... I gotta say, the

01:35:48.510 --> 01:35:56.350
effects on him here are amazing. Yeah. I am more

01:35:56.350 --> 01:36:06.010
than man. Especially He -Man. God. I am God.

01:36:07.710 --> 01:36:10.369
Very bright. Yeah, he should have been called

01:36:10.369 --> 01:36:15.909
Hook, not Karg. He's got a hook for a hand. Evelyn's

01:36:15.909 --> 01:36:18.189
like the only one not flinching here. Yeah, because

01:36:18.189 --> 01:36:20.609
she knows what's coming. There's actually some

01:36:20.609 --> 01:36:22.149
moves that they end up not being able to do in

01:36:22.149 --> 01:36:24.109
this fight scene because of how tall his helmet

01:36:24.109 --> 01:36:30.050
is. Now he looks like a fucking Power Ranger.

01:36:31.729 --> 01:36:35.229
He doesn't look that bad. I'm glad you at least

01:36:35.229 --> 01:36:40.409
said that that would be bad. That was like some

01:36:40.409 --> 01:36:42.050
type of getup that you would see somebody on

01:36:42.050 --> 01:36:46.130
a Power Rangers TV show have. Well, some of those

01:36:46.130 --> 01:36:49.449
suits are really cool. Some of them are very

01:36:49.449 --> 01:36:55.270
bad. This one, I don't see it as bad. And again,

01:36:55.489 --> 01:37:00.510
once I show you the toy version of God Skeletor,

01:37:00.550 --> 01:37:03.470
I think you're going to come around to it. I

01:37:03.470 --> 01:37:05.770
just thought he looked so epic as he was that

01:37:05.770 --> 01:37:08.710
this made him look less epic to me. Absolutely.

01:37:08.789 --> 01:37:15.279
I generally agree. I don't know, man. It just

01:37:15.279 --> 01:37:18.279
looks... A little bit going to Eternia. Yep.

01:37:18.640 --> 01:37:22.600
Got it in the picture. It looks like a... What

01:37:22.600 --> 01:37:24.920
is that helmet? That helmet is bizarre. Who made

01:37:24.920 --> 01:37:28.560
that? Who designed that? It's crazy. The Havoc

01:37:28.560 --> 01:37:30.600
Staff is basically still the same, but he's got

01:37:30.600 --> 01:37:32.359
antler horns, and then he's got something else

01:37:32.359 --> 01:37:35.060
coming off the back. He's got a gem on the top.

01:37:35.140 --> 01:37:36.720
He's got snakes going around it or something.

01:37:37.720 --> 01:37:40.989
Well, it's to show that he's got... This all

01:37:40.989 --> 01:37:43.229
this new power and they have to do something.

01:37:43.270 --> 01:37:47.630
And again, this is 80 1987. Oh, hey, look, half

01:37:47.630 --> 01:37:56.850
a pink Cadillac and half a wall. Yeah. Stuff

01:37:56.850 --> 01:37:59.069
like that happens. You always wonder, like, why

01:37:59.069 --> 01:38:01.310
is it only the people that get transported? Yeah.

01:38:01.510 --> 01:38:03.449
It was like, well, we're going to transport everything.

01:38:05.409 --> 01:38:12.079
Except the other half of the car. It wasn't within

01:38:12.079 --> 01:38:15.680
the realm of the notes. And they needed something

01:38:15.680 --> 01:38:20.899
to be able to hide behind to shoot. True. Oh,

01:38:21.039 --> 01:38:24.319
He -Man's free, or at least part of him is. That

01:38:24.319 --> 01:38:29.479
was dumb. Yep. Skeletor's freaking out. I have

01:38:29.479 --> 01:38:31.640
to say, just a second ago, when He -Man did that

01:38:31.640 --> 01:38:34.300
back kick... That kind of looked like a Filmation

01:38:34.300 --> 01:38:37.199
move that Filmation He -Man would do. That was

01:38:37.199 --> 01:38:40.619
the one time I really felt that Dolph looked

01:38:40.619 --> 01:38:43.060
like... I feel like that laser went right through

01:38:43.060 --> 01:38:48.260
Lubbock. Yeah. Oh, yeah. All of the lasers should

01:38:48.260 --> 01:38:50.220
have hit Lubbock. Not that I want them to, but

01:38:50.220 --> 01:38:52.399
the way they're firing, they all should hit him.

01:38:52.840 --> 01:38:56.060
It looked like they edited it wrong, and it looked

01:38:56.060 --> 01:38:58.300
like it actually did hit him and had no effect.

01:38:59.840 --> 01:39:01.760
Nothing shot that guy. He just flew backwards.

01:39:02.300 --> 01:39:07.960
Mm -hmm. He -Man's just throwing people left

01:39:07.960 --> 01:39:10.939
and right. This is more like the type of fighting

01:39:10.939 --> 01:39:13.680
He -Man should be doing versus shooting people.

01:39:16.380 --> 01:39:26.659
Beastman's evil inner just dipping out. Oh, that

01:39:26.659 --> 01:39:54.909
didn't feel good. We still have most of what

01:39:54.909 --> 01:39:58.409
Skeletor is doing is doing from afar. Yeah, there's

01:39:58.409 --> 01:40:01.550
no close -up. We do get a fight scene between

01:40:01.550 --> 01:40:12.369
them coming up, though. Yep, we do. Kind of a

01:40:12.369 --> 01:40:14.949
long, drawn -out final action sequence is what

01:40:14.949 --> 01:40:18.449
we got here. Yeah, but I mean, I think it works.

01:40:18.630 --> 01:40:20.670
There's a little too much action, but for what

01:40:20.670 --> 01:40:25.420
it is... There you go. Yep. You said something

01:40:25.420 --> 01:40:30.000
believable. Yeah. Yeah. He's going to lift the

01:40:30.000 --> 01:40:43.680
whole thing with his bare hands. He meant doing

01:40:43.680 --> 01:40:49.720
a Tarzan impersonation. Oh, here we go. Just

01:40:49.720 --> 01:40:51.979
so we're aware. So everybody's straight on this.

01:40:52.600 --> 01:40:54.699
When we have the actual battle sequence between

01:40:54.699 --> 01:40:57.079
He -Man and Skeletor here, it is not going to

01:40:57.079 --> 01:40:58.979
be Frank Langella. It is going to be Blade in

01:40:58.979 --> 01:41:03.539
that costume. Hmm, interesting. Yeah, Frank Langella

01:41:03.539 --> 01:41:05.939
did not do the action sequence, the one -on -one

01:41:05.939 --> 01:41:09.420
fight. He did not do it. Yeah. So Blade, being

01:41:09.420 --> 01:41:11.859
the fight choreographer and the stuntman and

01:41:11.859 --> 01:41:14.060
everything, has a second fight with He -Man,

01:41:14.140 --> 01:41:16.300
just in a different costume this time. That's

01:41:16.300 --> 01:41:17.880
kind of cool, though. I think that's interesting.

01:41:18.140 --> 01:41:21.119
Yeah. I've never watched it with that knowledge.

01:41:22.980 --> 01:41:25.600
So I'm sure they make sure that every face shot

01:41:25.600 --> 01:41:30.659
is Langella still, but right. Yeah. If you're

01:41:30.659 --> 01:41:33.159
like that, probably was Langella. That was a

01:41:33.159 --> 01:41:37.020
slow swing, but probably here, here it's here.

01:41:37.060 --> 01:41:39.619
It's blade here. It's blade. Yeah. Most definitely.

01:41:39.739 --> 01:41:41.960
Yeah. Cause you can't even see his face. No,

01:41:42.020 --> 01:41:45.600
I just now noticed the mask is down. The whole,

01:41:45.600 --> 01:41:48.880
the whole face is darkened. Everything. They

01:41:48.880 --> 01:41:52.120
changed the lighting. So you can't tell. Yep.

01:41:52.120 --> 01:41:55.199
But that's not Langella. I think that's cool,

01:41:55.220 --> 01:41:57.500
though. I think that's interesting. I think that's

01:41:57.500 --> 01:42:00.659
the perfect way to do it for this film. I think

01:42:00.659 --> 01:42:02.020
it's cool that they got somebody that was already

01:42:02.020 --> 01:42:03.659
in the film to do it, like another character

01:42:03.659 --> 01:42:05.880
instead of just a random stunt person. Right,

01:42:06.000 --> 01:42:11.300
yeah. That makes it kind of cool. And it does.

01:42:11.399 --> 01:42:13.039
If they hadn't done this, it would be a fight

01:42:13.039 --> 01:42:16.100
scene like what we saw with Darth Vader in Star

01:42:16.100 --> 01:42:18.750
Wars, where it's very clear that there's... A

01:42:18.750 --> 01:42:21.149
very old person. Not very old, but like an older

01:42:21.149 --> 01:42:22.930
person that's not swinging the swords very well.

01:42:23.550 --> 01:42:26.810
Yeah. Lightsabers in that case, but... Right.

01:42:29.109 --> 01:42:31.329
See, that would have been the... I don't know.

01:42:31.430 --> 01:42:33.489
I feel like we missed out on the moment where

01:42:33.489 --> 01:42:35.810
He -Man holds up the sword and becomes He -Man

01:42:35.810 --> 01:42:39.149
after Adam, like in a moment like this. Well,

01:42:39.170 --> 01:42:41.930
I mean, he already did. He did it when he pulled

01:42:41.930 --> 01:42:44.289
it out of the thing. That was the moment for

01:42:44.289 --> 01:42:47.310
this movie. Yeah. Almost loses the thought again.

01:42:51.009 --> 01:42:54.149
That was funny because in one shot, Skeletor's

01:42:54.149 --> 01:42:56.949
hood was down. The next one was up and then it

01:42:56.949 --> 01:42:59.069
was down again. There was some bad editing there.

01:42:59.229 --> 01:43:03.869
He falls into the abyss. He falls into Cloud

01:43:03.869 --> 01:43:13.930
City. Basically. Apparently they had the whole

01:43:13.930 --> 01:43:16.770
movie done except for parts of this sequence.

01:43:18.400 --> 01:43:22.579
And the production got shut down because the

01:43:22.579 --> 01:43:25.260
company said that they had to be done. And it

01:43:25.260 --> 01:43:27.819
took them like, it basically took the Goddard,

01:43:27.880 --> 01:43:29.859
like, I don't know, two or three weeks or something.

01:43:29.939 --> 01:43:31.760
I want to say, I don't quote me on the timeframe

01:43:31.760 --> 01:43:34.699
to convince them to let them like reassemble,

01:43:34.720 --> 01:43:37.340
to shoot the last few shots of the movie or something

01:43:37.340 --> 01:43:39.180
like that. There's something to do with stuff

01:43:39.180 --> 01:43:41.640
they had to come back later and do because they

01:43:41.640 --> 01:43:48.090
had to wait to get reinstated. Wow. King Lubbock.

01:43:50.170 --> 01:43:53.649
Gets a woman out of it. Looks like a much younger

01:43:53.649 --> 01:43:57.270
woman. Oh, yeah. Sorceress also looks much younger

01:43:57.270 --> 01:43:59.409
than she did a few minutes ago. Yeah, she does.

01:43:59.510 --> 01:44:01.409
She doesn't look young, but she looks younger.

01:44:02.310 --> 01:44:04.149
Yeah, I didn't like the fact that they played

01:44:04.149 --> 01:44:08.189
her so old in this. But I guess it somewhat makes

01:44:08.189 --> 01:44:12.390
sense. When you wish upon a globe. Oh, I just

01:44:12.390 --> 01:44:16.699
want one thing. I want my parents back. Yeah,

01:44:16.699 --> 01:44:20.899
an Eternia. No, nobody said that. Man -at -arms

01:44:20.899 --> 01:44:28.359
without the helmet. Looking like a typical guy

01:44:28.359 --> 01:44:36.520
from the 80s. Oh, yeah. He may have got his armor

01:44:36.520 --> 01:44:42.659
polished for this shot. Yeah. Very gold, very

01:44:42.659 --> 01:44:49.890
shiny. Why does Goldor have gold bands tied in

01:44:49.890 --> 01:44:52.470
his hair? Because everybody's got gold on now.

01:44:54.270 --> 01:44:56.869
They all took all the gold from Skeletor's outfit

01:44:56.869 --> 01:44:58.869
and melted it down and made new stuff into it.

01:45:00.210 --> 01:45:04.649
Activate the doorway. I would actually be interested

01:45:04.649 --> 01:45:09.649
to know if that really was Dolph Lundgren with

01:45:09.649 --> 01:45:13.189
the laser whip. Like the marks on his body, if

01:45:13.189 --> 01:45:16.489
they actually did make up for that. for that

01:45:16.489 --> 01:45:20.149
scene earlier. I'm assuming they did, but I'm

01:45:20.149 --> 01:45:21.689
assuming they did too, but you, you know, scenes

01:45:21.689 --> 01:45:24.050
like that. Oh, we'll just, you just don't double.

01:45:24.130 --> 01:45:27.210
But every time I saw him writhing in pain or

01:45:27.210 --> 01:45:29.970
whatever, I always saw his giant blonde wig and

01:45:29.970 --> 01:45:32.369
not wake, but you know what I mean? Like, and

01:45:32.369 --> 01:45:34.050
I'm like, Oh, I wonder if that really is him

01:45:34.050 --> 01:45:35.909
or if that's just some other actor that looks

01:45:35.909 --> 01:45:38.750
like him or has his muscles or whatever. Kind

01:45:38.750 --> 01:45:43.170
of, I don't think so, but you know, it's weird.

01:45:44.040 --> 01:45:46.880
an Eternian gesture, like waving, but it's their

01:45:46.880 --> 01:45:53.119
version of it. Good journey. Send me back before

01:45:53.119 --> 01:45:57.199
my mom and dad crashed. Blah, blah, blah. Don't

01:45:57.199 --> 01:45:59.579
get me wrong. I lost a parent. You lost a parent.

01:45:59.640 --> 01:46:02.699
Don't get me wrong. It's horrible, but I really

01:46:02.699 --> 01:46:04.699
do hate that that's part of this movie, that

01:46:04.699 --> 01:46:08.520
she gets to go back before her parents crashed.

01:46:09.220 --> 01:46:13.579
That's not something that can happen. Don't plant

01:46:13.579 --> 01:46:15.159
that seed that that's a possibility. And why

01:46:15.159 --> 01:46:17.399
is she wearing, like, a nightgown like you'd

01:46:17.399 --> 01:46:21.000
wear on Little House on the Prairie? I think

01:46:21.000 --> 01:46:23.579
my mom actually had that nightgown. I'm not kidding.

01:46:23.880 --> 01:46:25.520
She's supposed to be wearing, what, like an 18

01:46:25.520 --> 01:46:28.899
-year -old? Yeah. Like, no 18 -year -olds walking

01:46:28.899 --> 01:46:32.119
around in that thing. Yeah, no. Especially not

01:46:32.119 --> 01:46:39.300
in the 80s. No. Oh, Lord. Yeah, this is cringeworthy.

01:46:39.699 --> 01:46:52.920
Yeah. Oh, lordy, lordy. Yeah. Not a fan of that

01:46:52.920 --> 01:47:00.939
part. No. Hey, look, the microwave's fixed. Jeez.

01:47:01.659 --> 01:47:03.899
Don't die over there. Yeah, I know, right? Well,

01:47:04.060 --> 01:47:07.979
it's just... This is the worst scene of the entire

01:47:07.979 --> 01:47:12.369
film. Yeah, it's up there, that's for sure. Take

01:47:12.369 --> 01:47:14.869
all the effects, take all the timeline, take

01:47:14.869 --> 01:47:17.670
all the whatever. Oh, no, you're not going on

01:47:17.670 --> 01:47:19.989
your trip. I'm taking your tickets. Bye. And

01:47:19.989 --> 01:47:21.670
I'm going to walk out of the house in my nightgown.

01:47:23.250 --> 01:47:25.210
Oh, I forgot about this when it came up in the

01:47:25.210 --> 01:47:28.630
actual movie. So I'll share it now. But Mattel,

01:47:28.649 --> 01:47:31.430
the toy company, did hold a contest where the

01:47:31.430 --> 01:47:33.010
winner would get a role in the new He -Man series

01:47:33.010 --> 01:47:36.050
or the He -Man movie. They were under a great

01:47:36.050 --> 01:47:38.069
deal of pressure to finish the time under budget.

01:47:38.130 --> 01:47:39.909
So director Gary Goddard had to squeeze the contest

01:47:39.909 --> 01:47:42.319
winner into the shoot. The winner, Richard Smonder,

01:47:42.420 --> 01:47:44.500
is Pig Boy, who hands Skeletor his staff when

01:47:44.500 --> 01:47:47.739
he returns from Earth. Oh, interesting. I guess

01:47:47.739 --> 01:47:50.819
that guy complained, too, because he said the

01:47:50.819 --> 01:47:53.640
makeup and everything after it came off, his

01:47:53.640 --> 01:47:57.539
face was burning in agony for weeks. Because

01:47:57.539 --> 01:48:00.579
of all the Pig Boy makeup that they had to take

01:48:00.579 --> 01:48:08.979
off his face. I have the power! And it's over.

01:48:09.609 --> 01:48:12.550
They don't do the... Oh, they have a post -credit

01:48:12.550 --> 01:48:15.890
scene. No, they don't. Yes, they do. Shut up.

01:48:15.909 --> 01:48:18.329
No, they don't. Yes, they do. It was one of the

01:48:18.329 --> 01:48:20.949
first movies that had a post -credit scene. Really?

01:48:21.449 --> 01:48:24.649
I'm pretty sure. We're just going through the

01:48:24.649 --> 01:48:26.670
credits here. It's just listing everybody. Carl,

01:48:26.750 --> 01:48:29.609
the janitor. There's Pig Boy. Richard Sponder.

01:48:29.770 --> 01:48:32.750
That's the guy who won the contest. He got to

01:48:32.750 --> 01:48:34.350
be in his one movie, I'm assuming. I'm assuming

01:48:34.350 --> 01:48:35.869
he was never... Let me click on his name here

01:48:35.869 --> 01:48:40.010
on IMDb and see if he... Yeah, that was it. Well,

01:48:40.069 --> 01:48:43.130
I guess he played himself on some type of documentary

01:48:43.130 --> 01:48:47.310
in 2017 about Masters of the Universe. But that

01:48:47.310 --> 01:48:51.050
was his only appearance. I never knew that because

01:48:51.050 --> 01:48:53.329
I never watched this movie past the credits.

01:48:53.609 --> 01:48:56.970
I did not. I honestly did not know. It says here

01:48:56.970 --> 01:48:59.789
in Wikipedia in a post -credits scene, Teletor's

01:48:59.789 --> 01:49:01.670
head emerges from the water at the bottom of

01:49:01.670 --> 01:49:05.050
the pit saying, I'll be back. I honestly never

01:49:05.050 --> 01:49:07.560
knew that. cliffhanger that said that there was

01:49:07.560 --> 01:49:08.859
going to be a sequel that they decided to keep

01:49:08.859 --> 01:49:10.859
in there, I guess. I don't know if it's in my

01:49:10.859 --> 01:49:12.239
version or not. We're going to see here in a

01:49:12.239 --> 01:49:17.779
minute. The credits aren't too long, but yeah.

01:49:18.380 --> 01:49:20.000
One of those things where it's like, there's

01:49:20.000 --> 01:49:21.640
going to be more than there never is. It's like,

01:49:21.720 --> 01:49:23.399
I hate stuff like that that exists where there

01:49:23.399 --> 01:49:28.840
was never a conclusion. Yeah, exactly. I mean,

01:49:28.880 --> 01:49:30.779
say what you will about Transformers, the movie,

01:49:30.859 --> 01:49:34.569
but at least, you know, you know let the cybertronian

01:49:34.569 --> 01:49:37.029
war be over till all are one at least we had

01:49:37.029 --> 01:49:40.729
an ending and obviously right kind of stuck out

01:49:40.729 --> 01:49:43.069
at the end there but i mean whatever at least

01:49:43.069 --> 01:49:45.909
it wasn't ending it was not right post credits

01:49:45.909 --> 01:49:48.869
whatever like i said there was an alternate uh

01:49:48.869 --> 01:49:50.590
introduction scene that featured snake mountain

01:49:50.590 --> 01:49:53.390
in that scene tila was held captive in the dungeons

01:49:53.390 --> 01:49:55.289
of snake mountain she escapes and helps several

01:49:55.289 --> 01:49:57.979
imprisoned resistance fighters outside Scene

01:49:57.979 --> 01:49:59.840
ended up never being filmed, but it was used

01:49:59.840 --> 01:50:01.859
in novelizations and was mentioned in the official

01:50:01.859 --> 01:50:05.920
movie and poster magazine. So there was a shot

01:50:05.920 --> 01:50:12.039
of Snake Mountain at some point. So the sequel

01:50:12.039 --> 01:50:14.819
was going to take place 10 years after this in

01:50:14.819 --> 01:50:20.420
storyline. Hmm. Interesting. Yeah. And this film

01:50:20.420 --> 01:50:23.699
is said to take place in Earth in 1986 and 1987.

01:50:25.800 --> 01:50:27.960
No wonder they had a cheap chicken place in the

01:50:27.960 --> 01:50:33.260
movie. Go ahead. I bet this movie would have

01:50:33.260 --> 01:50:35.479
made more bank if KFC was the chicken place.

01:50:37.220 --> 01:50:39.600
Yeah, the film got a PG rating in America, England,

01:50:39.699 --> 01:50:41.319
Australia, and New Zealand, mostly due to He

01:50:41.319 --> 01:50:43.060
-Man smashing and fighting Skeletor's troops.

01:50:44.119 --> 01:50:46.060
And probably all the guns and whatnot, I would

01:50:46.060 --> 01:50:54.409
assume. Yeah. Yeah, I do not have a... Post -credits

01:50:54.409 --> 01:50:58.810
scene? Oh, no, I do. I do. Yep. I see the water.

01:50:59.149 --> 01:51:01.489
Ooh, I see it. Oh, that's the first time I've

01:51:01.489 --> 01:51:03.949
seen that ever. Yours is ahead of mine, so I

01:51:03.949 --> 01:51:05.630
haven't seen that part yet, so let me wait until

01:51:05.630 --> 01:51:07.189
I can see it on mine, because I'm sure our credit

01:51:07.189 --> 01:51:09.770
versions are different. No, they're not. I just

01:51:09.770 --> 01:51:15.270
fast -forwarded mine. I'm sorry. I'm like, I

01:51:15.270 --> 01:51:19.010
want to get to this already, damn it. Good lord.

01:51:19.710 --> 01:51:21.869
We're in the credits, folks, so if you're listening

01:51:21.869 --> 01:51:23.930
to this still, thank you. Second of all, the

01:51:23.930 --> 01:51:28.090
movie's kind of over. Yeah. That's definitely

01:51:28.090 --> 01:51:31.890
true. I mean, I enjoyed it. I enjoyed watching

01:51:31.890 --> 01:51:35.689
it through again this time. I still probably

01:51:35.689 --> 01:51:39.770
will never watch it again after now. And the

01:51:39.770 --> 01:51:42.310
funny thing is, folks, we were supposed to do

01:51:42.310 --> 01:51:46.149
this podcast episode something like two and a

01:51:46.149 --> 01:51:49.739
half, three years ago. Because originally, Back

01:51:49.739 --> 01:51:52.340
when we were supposed to do this, Karen and I

01:51:52.340 --> 01:51:54.739
were living in Gurney, Illinois, which is about

01:51:54.739 --> 01:51:57.960
three hours away from you. You were supposed

01:51:57.960 --> 01:51:59.699
to come to the house and we were supposed to

01:51:59.699 --> 01:52:01.960
do this live and in person and actually get to

01:52:01.960 --> 01:52:04.319
meet each other, but oh no. It didn't happen.

01:52:04.720 --> 01:52:08.119
I can see the red water now. I can see the red

01:52:08.119 --> 01:52:10.319
water and then Skeletor's head, which is very

01:52:10.319 --> 01:52:16.119
clean. He says, I'll be back. It's creepy. It's

01:52:16.119 --> 01:52:17.899
great. I love how clean his head was because

01:52:17.899 --> 01:52:21.359
it was in the water. So, yeah, that's Masters

01:52:21.359 --> 01:52:23.880
of the Universe. It's not a great movie from

01:52:23.880 --> 01:52:27.300
any type of film standard, but for... And I think

01:52:27.300 --> 01:52:29.960
fans of the franchise are split, probably. There's

01:52:29.960 --> 01:52:31.939
some people that probably like it, and some people

01:52:31.939 --> 01:52:34.800
probably think it's too far away from what they

01:52:34.800 --> 01:52:37.819
were hoping for. But, I don't know. It's a cult

01:52:37.819 --> 01:52:42.300
classic. I like it for what it is. right it's

01:52:42.300 --> 01:52:45.579
it's okay there are moments at the end of the

01:52:45.579 --> 01:52:48.539
movie in the final battle obviously you get the

01:52:48.539 --> 01:52:50.460
he -man scene with him pulling the sword out

01:52:50.460 --> 01:52:52.920
of the thing and having the i have the power

01:52:52.920 --> 01:52:54.840
thing and then you have the thing at the end

01:52:54.840 --> 01:52:57.979
with him in front of gray skull thing i like

01:52:57.979 --> 01:53:00.720
the battle with skeletor even though it's a battle

01:53:00.720 --> 01:53:04.460
with blade more you know but i like that i like

01:53:04.460 --> 01:53:08.789
the design on god like I, as a kid and even 10

01:53:08.789 --> 01:53:10.750
years ago when we did this for Movie Week in

01:53:10.750 --> 01:53:12.750
Review, which again, as I said earlier, I will

01:53:12.750 --> 01:53:15.609
link in the show notes on the podcast episode

01:53:15.609 --> 01:53:20.869
post. I did not like God Skeletor back then.

01:53:20.930 --> 01:53:24.649
And I did not like God Skeletor back as a kid

01:53:24.649 --> 01:53:27.449
because I wanted the purple. I wanted the this.

01:53:27.470 --> 01:53:31.270
I wanted the that. But now I kind of dig it.

01:53:31.310 --> 01:53:33.829
I think it's kind of cool to show, you know,

01:53:33.829 --> 01:53:38.119
what other color. then gold are you going to

01:53:38.119 --> 01:53:41.779
take this character to? It shows he has more

01:53:41.779 --> 01:53:45.239
power than what he already even had. So I dig

01:53:45.239 --> 01:53:48.159
it. It's all right. It works. If I'm rating this

01:53:48.159 --> 01:53:55.539
on the GCN universal rating system, it's somewhere

01:53:55.539 --> 01:53:57.720
between a two and a half and a three for me,

01:53:57.819 --> 01:54:01.800
somewhere between two and a half and three. I'm

01:54:01.800 --> 01:54:06.420
not that hard on it, I guess. I give it a five.

01:54:06.819 --> 01:54:09.760
What? No, I'm just kidding. I was, I was actually

01:54:09.760 --> 01:54:13.539
on a 10 point scale. Come on now. I give it like

01:54:13.539 --> 01:54:15.779
a, yeah, if it was out of five, I'm probably

01:54:15.779 --> 01:54:19.939
giving it a two and a half, like maybe somewhere

01:54:19.939 --> 01:54:24.739
in there. Um, it's, it's fine. It's what it lacks

01:54:24.739 --> 01:54:27.600
from a technical standpoint. It wins me over

01:54:27.600 --> 01:54:31.579
from just a fun nostalgia. champy standpoint

01:54:31.579 --> 01:54:34.000
so like it's right in the middle it's not great

01:54:34.000 --> 01:54:35.739
for any means but i don't think it's the worst

01:54:35.739 --> 01:54:37.479
thing i've ever seen it's better than most video

01:54:37.479 --> 01:54:41.680
game movies true so there's that and just for

01:54:41.680 --> 01:54:43.920
those that may not know and the gcr universal

01:54:43.920 --> 01:54:46.399
rating system is linked in almost every episode

01:54:46.399 --> 01:54:48.619
post of all of our podcasts on the geekcast radio

01:54:48.619 --> 01:54:50.859
network but just in case people don't know i've

01:54:50.859 --> 01:54:52.359
actually been doing this when we've been rating

01:54:52.359 --> 01:54:56.949
stuff lately 2 .5 below average The cons slightly

01:54:56.949 --> 01:54:59.369
outweigh the pros. While the negatives aren't

01:54:59.369 --> 01:55:02.010
overbearing, they are far too plentiful to make

01:55:02.010 --> 01:55:04.710
it worthy of a recommend. There may be certain

01:55:04.710 --> 01:55:07.090
redeeming qualities that are worth your time.

01:55:07.090 --> 01:55:09.390
However, in the end, the product leaves you wanting

01:55:09.390 --> 01:55:12.930
more. That could not be more descriptive. Yeah,

01:55:13.029 --> 01:55:15.510
so my rating's a 2 .5, your rating's a 2 .5,

01:55:15.590 --> 01:55:18.350
because 3 is average. I wouldn't recommend this

01:55:18.350 --> 01:55:19.989
to someone to watch like this, unless they're

01:55:19.989 --> 01:55:22.770
like in a crappy movie night and you're just

01:55:22.770 --> 01:55:24.069
going to sit around and have fun and make fun

01:55:24.069 --> 01:55:26.550
of it. Like that could be fun, but it's not something

01:55:26.550 --> 01:55:28.329
that you can recommend like realistically to

01:55:28.329 --> 01:55:32.069
people to watch. Yeah, no, not at all. Not at

01:55:32.069 --> 01:55:35.010
all. All right. We are going to take a quick

01:55:35.010 --> 01:55:37.010
break, and then we're going to come back and

01:55:37.010 --> 01:55:38.869
let you know what's coming up next here on the

01:55:38.869 --> 01:55:41.310
