JMS was 15 years old when the last episode of TOS was aired.  He never wrote for it (but did write a TOS comic book years later).

I meant to quote Larchie's post. Else the reference to She-Ra is pretty weird. :P

That makes a lot more sense.
The future is all around us, waiting, in moments of transition, to be born in moments of revelation. No one knows the shape of that future or where it will take us. We know only that it is always born in pain.   -G'Kar

The trailer is out for the new Masters of the Universe Netflix show, the one produced by Kevin Smith, and it hits me right in the center of childhood nostalgia. And the soundtrack is chef kiss worthy.

:huh:

Personally, I think the animation style is kinda ugly...but I don't get your point.  It just seems like they're playing it pretty close to the original style.

The music. Gay anthem.

Oh is it? It is just a 1980s song to me. But hey it is from your....um...collective of countries.

They missed their chance to use What's Up in the he man trailer

Total Eclipse of the Heart fits totally the bill.

Eddie Teach

Any song with a hint of theatrics could fit the bill, but do they? An anthem isn't just any popular song.

It's Raining Men would like to have a talk with Tyr.

The gays are known to be a musical people.
They have more than one anthem :p

He-Man sucked. I found it boring when I was a kid (but still got the action figures).

I mean every character had like only 4 different animations. It was a terrible cartoon.  :lol:

Syt

In Germany we had audio dramas of He-Man (a popular medium in the 70s and 80s), usually around 45-ish minutes, IIRC?



I had a bunch of them (up till #13 or so; I kinda grew out of them afterwards). They were decent adventure stuff, some better than others. On par with the cartoon, I'd say?

We had those in Spain too. I mean, I don't know if there were the same as the German ones, but there were cassette adventures of He-Man. They came with the action figures.



I might still have some at my parents' house.
