#101- By the Power of Grayskull… He-Man, HR, and Honestly... Not Bad

<p>By the power of Grayskull... we did not expect to like this. We went in with rock-bottom expectations after the infamous 1987 version and came out pleasantly surprised.</p><p>We break down what worked — the action, the visuals, Idris Elba nailing Man-At-Arms, and the nostalgic nods to the original cartoon — and what didn&#39;t, including forced humor, questionable lighting, and an Adam/He-Man who felt a little too wimpy for the most powerful man in the universe.</p><p>We also riff on the movie&#39;s &quot;so bad it&#39;s good&quot; charm, debate whether the cartoon&#39;s monster-of-the-week format beats a two-hour movie, and kick off a list of other 80s cartoons that deserve — or don&#39;t deserve — the reboot treatment.</p><p>Bottom line: not perfect, but genuinely fun. Big, dumb fun, exactly how a He-Man movie should be.</p>
