Masters of Universe 1987 film

[BlackKnight]

you guys are forgetting the film cost 15 million a low budget at that time and now if you wanted the whole thing set on Eternai and all the characters the film would have cost around 40 million the technology and the cash The Canon Group did not have I give them props for just getting the film done the story was set Around the budget they had

I don't believe this to be entirerly true..
I mean come on,.. look at how cool the Beast Master was ??... How much did that flick cost to get Made ? or Even Conan ? I seriously doubt a ton of cash.... Thats the kinda vibe I was getting when they were on Eternia... imo, if they need a bunch more cash to keep the flick on Eternia,.. they hired the wrong people to make the Flick.

BTW... They coulda probably saved about 35 Thousand or More, by not even doing the make up for Gildor,... or whatever that thing was.

I wanted to like this movie so much....
even when I was like 12 when 1st saw it...
I really dug the Eternia Scenes,.. & seriously had something great there imo,.. however once they went to Earth,.. it was so damn stupid,.. I disliked the movie from then on... I mean why ? ... Why ? ... You don't need to tell a Masters of the Universe Story with He-man,.. & go to flipp'in Earth in the 80's with all the thing that were already Bad in the 80's...

yeah the storyline was definitely stupid,I gotta admit I was only 7 and liked it a lot during the time(I still do) but now when you watch it,you just have to say...what the hell were they thinking?

That girl was SMOKIN (I've watched the file recently and she still looks hot to me)

She's no Courtney but she's hot.I remember her being the flight attendant in Commando with Arnold

It's an alright movie, I saw it in the theatre with some friends as a goof. I thought most of the character designs looked good, remember thinking Teela was hot (I was 17 at the time) and Skeletor was well done.

Just really didn't like the "let's all go to earth" plot.

true I liked his character there as well

Drago is still #1 though

NO DOUBT ABOUT IT!!

the hardest thing with him is deciding his worst role. I'll take the cop from I COME IN PEACE but his Punisher is pretty bad

[toys2cool]

The best part of the movie is Frank Langella as Skeletor (seriously, he was awesome) and Meg Foster as Evil Lyn. Dolph was actually pretty good as He-Man too. Most of the costume designs were pretty cool. The script was really bad though and I HATED the redesign of Sorceress.

I remember being really disappointed as a kid that Mattel never made movie versions of He-Man and Skeletor. Heck, still am.

Still have my official poster magazine from the movie.

Yeah i could'nt understand why they didn't just make all the characters

It's a Good Silly movie that needs to be remade with today's CGI.

I have never seen this, must put it on my to-watch list.

It was a great adaptation of Jack Kirby's New Gods.
