they are going all in on a 40 year old shitty kids toy that was shitty 40 years ago.

you haven't seen the flood of commercials have you?
once again it's all about selling shitty plastic toys. that are worse than the shitty plastic toys 40 years ago. somehow they made them worse! lol!

:thought. if you have any of the original plastic crap from 40 years ago. NOW is the time to put it on ebay with a crazy high price.

Honestly, no. I haven't seen any of the commercials or trailers for it. Come to think of it, I don't think I have seen an ad in probably years...

This new film is too afraid of its shadow to simply let He-Man be what he is, and trust modern audiences to know what to do with him.

I suppose Alexander Sergeant might be onto something with his last sentence.

If you discount everything he said prior to it.

This is a review of "Masters of the Universe" movie and a critique of masculinity, in case the subject title confused you

So... Is it any good, or just the nostalgia slop everyone said it would be, with woke crap shoved into it?

Ironically a Jew gave us the best cinematic trilogy that ever was or will be made, Lord of the rings.

Peter Jackson? To my knowledge he is English

Peter Jackson is not Jewish; he also produced it with his wife.

It was the jews at New Line Cinema that almost sabotaged the whole thing.

Making backroom deals to cheat Jackson out of his paycheck, even destroying evidence to hide the fact.

Typical jew shit, like always.

In 2005, director Peter Jackson and his production company, Wingnut Films, sued ⁠New Line Cinema over accounting irregularities and unpaid profit participation on The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring. The high-profile legal dispute centered around gross-profit participation. ⁠New Line Cinema shortchanged him and his co-writers on revenue from DVD sales, video games, and merchandising. The core grievances and developments of the lawsuit included the studio miscalculating profits by utilizing favorable licensing deals with affiliated companies rather than testing the open market. In 2007, a judge fined ⁠New Line Cinema $125,000 for haphazardly searching for relevant records and the deletion of studio emails.

To be any good, it would have to have good writing. If the writing was good on it's own, would they need to nostalgia bait with 40yo characters?

Guys nominally on our side, are giving it a fun, non-political roller coaster grade. Guys like Nerderotic, Drinks, Heels are saying good things.

Same faggots that praised Sinners to death and refused to acknowledge how obscenely anti-white the movie is, praised and defended God Of War Ragnorok and Kratos' blatant character assassination and having Laufrey cuck him and not even be sure that Atreus is even his son, that also praised Kingdom Come Deliverance II and brushed off any criticism of it? That's a good sign not to see it, anything those faggots like is bound to be thoroughly mediocre.

The amount of dick sucking sinners got was insane.

The premise was whites bad everyone else good.

Every single white in the movie was either a vampire or a KKK member. Bar none.

Every non was hip and cool and "cultured" and tough and smooth and could dance and sing and was a pillar of the community and pitched it to help out yada yada yada.

Ryan Coogler maybe caught lightning with Creed and Black panther was the most average movie ever that got praise because it was basically an all black cast. That's it. The plot made no sense. The inner rules of wakanda also made no sense. The villain made no sense. Black panther being the Black panther before they actually agreed on a new one made no sense. And back to Creed, the movie shits on Apollo Creed by retconning him into a philandering fatherer of a bastard. The irony of a black pride director turning an actual good black role model into just another deadbeat black father is hilarious.

You forget the black Christians, including the singers father/pastor, were portrayed as Uncle Toms for simply being Christians.

It's amazing how much that movie stole from "From Dusk:to Dawn" even down to the pussy eating jokes.

It stole it and managed to do everything worse in a non-sensical way.

At least Dusk 'Til Dawn had an AWESOME lead-up to the bar, and the final showdown was balls-to-the-walls action.

Sinners had none of that.

The final "action" sequence in Sinners didn't even make a lot of sense -- when the barn doors opened all of the human survivors should have been overwhelmed and died immediately since they had nothing to really protect them. And then for some odd reason all the vampires ran out of the barn when they had the superior numbers?

So much of that film made no logical sense at all.

Real Life Fake Wizard tore it a new one for not allowing itself any amount of sincerity that wasn't immediately punctuated with snark or mean spirited self deprecation as if the entire production crew were embarrassed of the source material.

I have no idea if it's any good as I have no intention of seeing it or pretty much anything else this summer except for maybe the Street Fighter movie.

I'm not seeing it merely because they race swapped Man at Arms. I don't even care for the character but it's the principle of the matter. Maybe someone I know will pirate it and I can watch it with them.

Yup. If they're gonna keep propping up this "representation" nonsense, I'm gonna refuse to watch anything with less than 100% White protagonists.

Well the claim is, "if I don't see myself in it, then it's not for me."

Then they make things where I don't see myself in it, so I have to assume that they didn't make it for me.

Which is fine. Saves me a lot of wasted time watching their garbage.

All those guys are reliable only for what they dislike. Their recommendations are frequently woke-lite.

Stop adapting the beloved ones. Have some balls and swing for the fences.

Go make a live-action Turbo Teen or something. No one will care if you race-swap it. Have that motherfucker turn into a Hellcat.
