Hmmm, could be good. I think the original is pretty underrated. It's not fantastic by any means, but it's solid.

Yea but I was disapointed as it was only barely like He-Man. I read about the first draft ending which was quite weird.

I love the cartoon but I don't know if they can really create the atmosphere that needs to be created for this film to work. But I guess that there going to give it a go, so we'll see what happens with this one.

My biggest worry is I can see He-Man jumping out from behind a rock while Doves fly in the air, all in slow motion as he throws his sword through the air....LMAO  |

The biggest mistake of the original film was the studio not putting decent money into it. If their gonna go cheap with their directors and actors, their gonna get a cheap movie. John Woo, while an unusual choice, is a high caliber director. Now if they could just make the film closer to the cartoon, they might actually have a hit on their hands!
