a new He-Man movie? Fuck yeah.

Via, IGN: By the power of Grayskull, riding 300's waves....

Nothing's in production yet, so this could very well go the way of oblivion. The Skeletor fanatic that's hidden dormant within me since childhood has his boney fingers crossed, though.

I can definitely get with this. Kung Fu Panda is good times, and that old Dolph Lundgren movie gets worse and painfully-worse as years go by. It was called Masters of the Universe, right? The costumes looked like they were bought at Ken's Magic Shop down the street from my parents' house. Not even up to Party City's standards. He-Man is due.

And just imagine the kick-ass line of toys that'll come with this. Right around the age when my man Nick will be all about action figures, too. Uncle Matt has his future Friday nights planned out already....


***Remember that I Love the '80s episode, when the He-Man opining redirected to issues of underlying sexual tension? Michael Ian Black: "He-Man was maybe the single most homoerotic cartoon ever devised."
