Film: He Man Masters of the Universe

[Benefit]

Best film ever?

The answer is yes.

Chances of me watching this in cinema no matter how bad the reviews are... very good. He-Man was the man!!!

This movie came out when I was huge into the original He-Man figures (oh so many decades ago...). I thought it was awesome. I was disapointed that there weren't more characters actually based on the figures though. I know if they made a live action today, it would be 10X better than the original.

I think it's terrible--but in a good way. It has a cheesy appeal of the kind that I've always latched on to.

I loved that movie when it came out. I was always a fan of that old dude that played Skeletor, he kinda reminds me of the guy who played Lord Dooku. same guy? also, I always joked that Courtney Cox's great acting in this movie is what launched her into Ace Ventura and Friends.

there is always hope! everything gets remade at least once, Excorist, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Transformers, the new TMNT live action movie. I even heard a remake of Alien was shut down before it started. whew. I don't know if people would accept that one.

so if they remake Masters of the Universe, who would be He-Man?

its funny that you made this thread, my BF made me watch this a few days ago. i thought it was laughably bad. but i never got very into he-man.

what does skelator say at the end of the movie? i wasn't paying a whole lot of attention, but it angered my BF. he started running around screaming "15 years, i never fucking knew that." it was like he was in shock

Nah. Frank Langella was Skeletor; Dooku was Christopher Lee. I could see a vague resemblance, though...

By the by, if you're a fan of Langella, the man was probably at his best in the 1979 version of "Dracula"...At least, that's what my old lady says.

drifting slightly, he played a great quilty in the (1997) lolita.

Best scene: When "Man of Arms" and the woman are eating KFC... and she asks, "what are these funny-looking white sticks?"

I watched this movie (and loved it) a lot when I was a kid.
