Action was awesome. The whole movie was about some HR guy learning to be a man.Underrated and it’s a genuine shame it hasn’t made enough money
>>221059409>He Man RockedCertainly not the box office.
>>221059409Awesome dude Rock n' Roll!
I pre ordered the 4k version to make up for low T, zoomies and retarded autistics not going to watch it.
>>221059409It probably would've made more money if it wasn't based on an embarrassing unc franchise.
>>221059409How soon into the movie does he become He-Man and do He-Man shit?
>>221059409Don't these movies all look the same? I mean this one, Supergirl, etc. They all look like Guardians of the Galaxy. Very colorful, a lot of pop music, comedy, a lot of alien species and planets, little cute monsters...
>>221060151There’s great action from the start. Like 10 minutes in and Man At Arms kicks some ass.The soundtrack is really good too. Like very good.I cannot recommend it enough.>>221060117I know! It’s sad.>>221060140Unfortunately it’s exactly the sort of movie these boys need to see. Be a hero! Be the man you were always meant to be! Stop being a fucking pussy!Also it’s the only time I’ve ever appreciated a Jared Leto performance. He was good as Skeletor
>>221060187I’m going to see supergirl to goon in the theater to the cute blonde girl.
CoolStill not seeing this. Let it bomb.
Why did they allow that shit cartoon to come out and kill any interest with today's kids?
>>221060117>Certainly not the box office.I said in another thread that it's a shame dipshit companies went all in on streaming and have actively tried to kill the home media market, because this film would probably have done great on DVD.
fingers crossed for Thundercatssnarf snarf, motherfuckerz
Did he rock enough to justify a 200 million dollar budget?
>>221059409This movie was a whole lot of wasted potential, overall it had good production values, solid cast, and Skeletor was great. Unfortunately it tried way too hard to be Thor/Guardians with shitty quips in every other line, and overall feel of being embarassed of its own source material instead of just playing it mostly straight and embracing the campiness with some well placed jokes throughout. It also didn't seem to know who its target audience was, like the studio execs keep saying they want families to see it, but there is SO much (unfunny) sexual innuendo humor in it that's not kid friendly. I know it's PG-13 but most would expect it to just be for the cartoon style violence and not a bunch of jokes about fisting and pussy. And the self depricating tone is a turn off for the long time oldfag fans, so they fumbled that too.
>>221060466Clearly not
>>221059409Saw it last night (even went in for the popcorn bucket meme), I really enjoyed it but I wish they'd not undercut so many moments with a joke, especially the prison break moment where they all start chocking on the dust. Having them walking in slo-mo to Princes of the Universe and then moving into an action scene should have been one of the major highlights for the film and it's basically ruined by adding the joke.
>>221060477>the studio execs keep saying they want families to see it, but there is SO much (unfunny) sexual innuendo humor in it that's not kid friendly.Kid's films used to have tons of sex jokes and innuendo in them. The idea was that the kids wouldn't get it, but it was a funny joke for the parents.
>>221060520Teela makes a joke about Adam “making goo” in his pants as a teen, it’s not appropriate
>Make nostalgia slop for boomers>Zoomers don't give a shit and won't watch it>"See? Zoomers don't watch movies anymore so we can only make nostalgia slop for boomers"Someone end this cycle already.
>>221060477>>221060484Yeah obviously not. I don’t really know where all that budget went desu.
>>221060493>I wish they'd not undercut so many moments with a joke,fuck....that shit drove me nuts with the Dungeons and Dragons movie too. When the fuck are they going to catch on.
>>221060520These ones weren't remotely funny for adults either and that same fisting joke got repeated so many fucking times, not to mention all the jokes based off character names is part of the self mockery thing that dragged the whole movie down. You can poke fun at something while still being mostly sincere, like Galaxy Quest or Enchanted, the difference is good writing.
>>221060574Oh don't be such a fucken pansy, Cars has a joke about fangirls flashing their tits at Lightning, Rugrats made jokes about the Grandpa renting porn from the video store, Shrek implies that Farquad gets a boner while forcing the magic mirror to let him perv on the princesses, Road to El Dorado is FILLED with sexual innuendo. It's fine to put those jokes in there because kids will not understand them until they're older.
>>221060574Are you retarded?
>>221060689Yeah, some of the jokes suck, but that's a separate issue.
>>221059409This. So much freaking this.
>>221059409Sick and tired of low effort shills.
>>221060693Those examples are all far more subtle implied things that no kid would notice, compared to a guy literally yelling "My name is Fisto because I fist people!" which is something they could later repeat at school and get in trouble. The execution is very different and has the subtlety of a sledgehammer and you should be able to see that.
>>221060187Most of the music in this movie is original
>>221059409Skeletor was pure unadulterated kino
>>221060240You didn’t answer his question.>How soon into the movie does he become He-Man
>>221060266>jeets rejecting the film because they find it impossible to insert as a blonde muscle man with a huge cockWhat a shame. It’s an aspirational film and jeets need something to aspire to more than anyone.
>>221060789For me, it’s, “give ‘em some head, Ram Man!”
>>221059409It should have been serious and R-rated. We have enough irreverent Guardians of the Galaxy type capeshit to last 100 generations, but not enough dramatic science fiction.
>>221060418Awesome 80s VHS style packaging with a collectible. Yep, that would've been great.
>>221060456They can't seriously be retarded enough to make a Thundercats movie.
>>221061109You underestimate the retardedness of Hollywood.
>>221059409>He Man Rocked
>>221061109yah imagine sydney sweeney as cheetara haha. that would be so gross haha
>>221059409What the hell is "He Man"? This is Masters of the Universe
I'd have seen it if not for Leto, will pirate it later
>>221060249nice try milly, i will not be giving your movie negative or positive attention
>>221060117your brain is a useless rot. you should terminate your own life
>>221060980>It’s an aspirational film>a 2026 He-Man quipfest movie
<Oh Adam you naughty boyI saw He-man a second time and it really clicked for me why I loved this Skeletor so much, Leto is copying Tim Curry's Frank N Furter, down to the accent.And Alison Brie is his RiffRaff/Magenta
>>221062409He was half that and half Bane from TDKR
>>221060117got his ass
>>221060789Yes, because Fisto has never talked about how he has fisted people before. Also kids say fucked up shit all the time because they lack the context.Again, the Fisting people joke will be something parents get, if a literal child understands the joke, it's because they already know what fisting someone refers to, which means there are bigger issues in that kid's life. And if a young teenager gets the joke, then they're probably old enough to know not to repeat those jokes around teachers.People like you are the reason that all media and the people watching it infantilised until it become overtly explicit and we see dudes actually fisting each other, these kinds of jokes are a harmless middle ground, go clutch your fucking pearls elsewhere.
>>221060484The thirteenth warrior was a scandalous box office failure, still is kinoThis movie is some based guy burning jew bucks to deliver kino before they can notice and ruin it thoroughly
>>221060151Uh he transforms like.. 45 minutes in or so? But he's still kind of an idiot goofball until maybe the last 30-40 minutes.
>>221059409There's HR departments that aren't completely midget tortas and sheeboons?
What is kinda alarming is that, kids loved this movie because it really speaks to their human instinct. Before the corporates get their hands on them, make them hopeless, depressed, sexually frustrated fat ugly poor drones to feed the profit machine,
>>221059409>>221060240thanks for the recommendation OPI will definitely bee seeing this movie, expect my analysis in like two months (I'll just wait for it to end the theatrical run)

Why did this film trigger chuds so hard?
The HR angle really made no sense the way they did it. They say he's good at it, and he uses his HR skills to try to rally his friends, but then whenever they flash back to his HR life he seems to hate it, it's a hellscape, and also seems terrible at it.

I wanna ask you anons a question; when you pulled into this thread, did you notice a sign on top that said "/pol/ - Politically Incorrect"?
>>221063514I enjoyed it and am a fan now. I expect the faggot who has an autistic vendetta against this movie to move on to some other autistic fixation a few days from now
>>221059409It was great The jokes just hit and it was a fun time
looks woke. fuck that
>>221060980It's marvelslop released too late to cash in. You enjoyed a children's film? That's nice. I won't be watching it because the trailer had a "he/him" faggot joke, and I don't support that kind of garbage with my time.
>>221060240is this poster AI or did the lead actor actually do the Pixar face?
>looks woke. fuck that
woke man
in glad this woke slop bombed and all of its Jewish producers lose money.
>>221059409I enjoyed it. But every time he wasn't holding the sword or otherwise in control of it and EVERY SINGLE BAD GUY around him was doing anything but try to grab it, it bugged the crap out of me. Those moments really made me sympathize with Skeletor, his minions are fucking retarded.
>>221060117Honestly? Good, it means it's safe from being ruined by shitty sequels. If this is the only movie, I'm satisfied.
>>221063473He was good at female "beat around the bush" HR because he was hot and friendly so people hand waved away everything else. But when he was actually in a situation where he had to inspire people he just stole lines from other places in his life (what everyone does)
>>221060951About a third of the way in. And he's on Earth for maybe ten minutes before the good shit starts happening. Oh and Dolph's in it.
It didn't bomb because it looked woke it bombed because nobody gives a fuck about he-man and the marketing was a joke.I watched it last night and I thought it was great, on par with 1980 Flash Gordon and with a comparison like that ut was just destined to be a bomb
>>221062229>quipfestHave you seen the original cartoon? If there was ever anything that justified quips, He-Man is it.
formulaic action quip slop
It looks like someone asked an AI to make a new Thor movie and this is what it spat out
>>221063049>But he's still kind of an idiot goofball until maybe the last 30-40 minutes.One of the best moments in the film is after Skeletor threatens his parents. >No Adam it's a trap, don't give him the sword!>Give? I'm gonna stab that fucker with itAdam really gets how to handle hostages. It's not an "or else" from the hostage taker, it's a "if you kill them I got no more reason to spare you."
>>221065076I'm honestly convinced all the astroturfing here calling it woke slop is a Jewish psyop because it actually promotes being a man and that violence is the answer sometimes. They don't want this message to get out there
>>221065282sounds like panderslop from the producers of wokeslop
>>221065240Boomer fans saw all the red flags and DEI, that's why it flopped (besides just being an all around bad He-Man film).Films crash for many reasons, fren.
>>221065304You can keep saying slop all you want, the people who enjoyed it don't care
>>221065319>the 3 people who enjoyed it
>>221065282>because it actually promotes being a man and that violence is the answer sometimes.I really couldn't figure out if that was the film's message, it seemed like it was sometimes, but then it would backtrack. When MAA is talking to He-Man and saying basically "you don't do violence to hurt others, you do it to protect your family so they're safe" and I was really happy to see that being said, but then Adam/He-Man keeps trying to go back to the whole "use your words" thing.
>>221059409Don't care, black man at arms means I am not watching
>>221065813And it never, ever, worked. Skeletor’s speech at the end was good too to hammer it in.Also he showed restraint. “I know how to use the power, I just don’t like to”
>>221065813watching modern hollwood slop has made you mentally ill to the point where you're evaluating the potential wokeness of action movies.

>>221066037When you grow up watching action movies from the 70s, 80s, and 90s, it's hard not to notice the stark difference. It's never unclear what Dirty Harry's (the film and the character) moral stance is, Riggs doesn't try to have a dialogue with Gary Busey. Post-modernism has really fucked up clear and sincere story-telling, now everything has to be a deconstruction, action films need to undercut the heroes because having defined positions on things means you risk alienating a contingent of the audience, and now because the internet has given every asshole a very public forum to proselytise, that might hurt the film's box office. There have been numerous articles both before and after the film's release on both side trying to stir up culture war bullshit, there were articles talking about how Teela displays "toxic masculinity" and then other assholes talk about how the film "mansplains." Honestly all I wanted was just a straight-forward MOTU film where the good guys are good and the bad guys are bad and the film never feels the need to undercut the more exciting moments with some shitty "it's okay normies, we know this stuff is stupid too" joke at the character's expense.
>>221066170>The hyper competent white guy gets chewed out by an incompetent black woman boss.I fucking hated that scene. I hate dipshit quirky "I'm your boss but fun! (but still totally your boss who you have to listen to)" characters.
>>221066282YupThey just had to make an actual He-Man movie for the actual fans and like-minded potential new fans (aka normal boys)
>>221064083>emasculated cringe manchild, always the butt of all jokesAdam is a cringe man-child cus of Earth's beta cucks like (You). Name all the jokes.>raceswapped man at armsI agree its woke.>female understanding of masculinityLike reasoning first then beating the shit out laterSorry it doesn't align with your "Tranny's understanding of masculinity".>HR shit Hr is shown as an antagonist and HR is made fun off by both Skeletor and Adam.Skeletor says its worst then him.>"anti-woke" "gaslighting" "faggot" "exposing yourself"Project more schizo>The opposite of woke is normalityTrue.Being a Reddit tranny is also not normal.
>>221066097That's just how the characters be. She-Ra was kidnapped by Hordak to become a soldier in his army, she found out her true origin and joins the heroes to fight back.
>>221059409I'm genuinely, not sarcastically, happy to hear it's a good movie. I just don't like or care about He-Man. Once again, I don't mean that in a condescending way, I just don't care.
>>221066366Oh, the tranny shill is getting aggressive.Go on, keep lying and gaslighting.Movie is still bombing>I've seen it. Had a blast. It respects the source material. It's antiwoke. It's le fun. Go see itkek
this >>221066242but I wasn't going to bother watching it at all. OP has now convinced me that it is worth the time to watch a pirated stream. I might even actually pay attention as opposed to just having it play in the background.
>>221066431>happy to hear it's a good movie.It isn't, but ok. >>221066399>We were always at war with eastasia>pretending to not understand the argument
>>221066502>pretending to not understand the argumentI genuinely don't understand the argument because that literally is She-Ra's origin from the original cartoon and mini-comics, she's kidnapped as a baby and brainwashed to serve in Hordak's army.
>>221066325I hated that scene because I’ve dealt with that boss before
>>221066795It reminds me of Lumberg from Office Space, that shitty veneer of friendliness. Whenever I have to write an email for work that ends with some variation on "if you could 'X' that'd be great" I hear it in my head as "thaat'd be greaaat" and I try to avoid formatting it that way if I can.
>>221066601The argument that anon was trying to make is the She-Ra (to not be confused with the Shit-Ra from the troon reboot), had her premise respected, Adam didn't.
>>221059409>He Man Floppedfixed
At my age it's very rare to say that something's way too old for me
>>221061450she looks more like panthro
>>221067002Yeah, I think doing to the reverse isekai thing with He-Man (AGAIN) was a mistake, because it forced/allowed them to put Adam in the situation where he needs to find a way to become He-Man, instead of just telling the story and expecting the audience to just figure it out.I know the film does use an opening narration, but it just gives a basic run down of what Eternia is and the Sword of Power, I miss when films had the balls to just have an opening narration that explained all the major points, and then just threw the audience in.Honestly why did they need to have Skeletor win and have Adam sent into exile? Why do the heroes need to be underdogs? Just have Skeletor come up with a new plan and the heroes go fight him.Hell if they need to send Adam on some kind of heroes journey, just fuck the Adam persona off altogether and adapt the mini-comics where He-Man is just He-Man and he comes from a tribe of savage Tarzan types.
>>221063879nah it perfectly describes all the movies that were declared flop .>watch a movie >it was fuckin borin>sees boxoffice >flop only exception to this case was fight club for me
>>221066910Yeah exactly. It’s just even worse when it comes from a black woman. Not racist just don’t like them
>>221067298>Honestly why did they need to have Skeletor win and have Adam sent into exile? Why do the heroes need to be underdogs? Just have Skeletor come up with a new plan and the heroes go fight him.True.

>>221063461Strip away the fact tgay in this particular instance, he actually is the heir to a powerful magic artifact in a fantasy world, and Adam is a totally ineffective man. He's obsessed with finding the power sword and thinking about/drawing things he remembers from Eternia. They show him on a date and a woman leaves before dinner after he spends 10 minutes telling her about Eternia. He's admonished at his job (his coworkers are rainbow hairs and his boss is an androgynous black woman) for looking at swords on the clock. A guy contacts him out of nowhere about his sword, which is in a comic shop being held by a big plastic display for some generic in-universe barbarian. The informant and all the guys in the comic shop are fat, aging nerds. Fast forward to Adam in Eternia and he fails to save his father, who struggles in his dying moments to tell Adam he's proud of him, because he never really accomplished anything. His arc is about being a pathetic man obsessed with fantasy/sci fi pablum

>>221065282Pretty amazing to see a film with the message: listen, learn and try to understand, but if they still are a threat to you and the people you care about, beat the shit out of them.
>>221059409I can't watch this. I'm sick of Idris Elba and the incessant race and gender swapping.
