MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE Will Not Rule Warner Bros!!
Merrick here...
Mattel and Warner Bros. couldn't play MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE together so Mattel is taking its toys & going somewhere else.
Mattel and WB didn't see eye to eye over the direction of the project and made a mutual decision to let the option lapse this month. Story revolves around He-Man, a prince who becomes a warrior battling the evil Skeletor for control of his magical homeland.
Mattel will take back the property and set it up elsewhere. The expectation is that director John Stevenson ("Kung Fu Panda") will remain with the project, but not Silver, who is exclusive to WB.
...reveals Variety HERE.
If I recall correctly, a sequel to Gary Goddard's 1987 MASTERS film was briefly mulled - a concept that would return He-Man to Earth where his mission would require him to play football. Pretty sure I have that right...

THE POWAAAAAAAAAH!

wow...that must have been from the same guy who wrote Beastmaster 2 :THROUGH THE PORTAL OF TIME!!!!! you have to say it that way.
-
I don't really care about He-man. I don't think it had the lasting appeal of Joe/Transformers/Turtles.
-
Who cares, I want a SHE-RA movie more anyway!
-
Conan's sword was fucking beast though

you mean real football or the crappy american rugby game? :)
-
...I've had around here. HE-MAN and his bacteria retaining fur lined jock strap!
-
Update the look and keep the same dynamics between the characters as the old cartoon. Don't go playing around with the formula or creating new dumbass characters like Transformers or G.I. Joe did. I know that I would have loved to see either of those properties delivered the way they were with the spirit of the old cartoons. Don't fuck up Masters as well.
-
I think it was. Maybe several concepts were considered?
-
at least that is what imdb and wiki say about.
-
Surprising since he's been Hollywood's golden boys scriptwriter the past year and he's had one script get produced and ZERO box office hits.
-
because I hated everything I heard about the script. Mostly its "dark and serious" approach of the material.
-
It had back story of Keldor turning into Skeletor and other types of cool shit like that. OH YEAH DO NOT BRING THEM TO EARTH. YOU FUCKING UNIMAGINATIVE HACKY WRITERS. I'm not angry or anything. Just saying keep it in Eternia with it's barbarian future tech.
-
Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li was fucking amazing is like 90th top grossing movie this year? Also I know Hack/Slash is going to be good, because for the past three years on the cover of every trade its said,"Soon to be a motion picture!" When was the last time that didn't turn out good?
-
I heard that too. Can't really see it myself. As much as I loved He-Man as a kid, I don't think you can make this property into something more than it is....which is an advert for toys. It doesn't matter how much money is thrown at it - look at Transformers.
-
Is that he walks through the raindrops. NASH OUT
-
I always hoped that MYP would continue the 2002 series with a DTV movie or something.
Oh, the new Classics figures are very cool, maybe the best action figures ever... -
Badly handled.
Does anyone remember the toys before the shitty cartoon started? They came with booklets that contained backstory that had NOTHING to do with the cartoon. Things like the "power sword" being in two parts and other conan-inspired action. I mean...you can see just how powder-puff they turned He-Man into by the way they created an identical Alter Ego. The figue came with a big fucking Battle-Axe for christs sake! -
That's a shame. Funny how reading the Fantasy books "Shanara" I saw a lot of what Eternia could be, magic and technology, stuff falling apart, all that shit.
-
You dirty, sick fanboys... admit it.
-

those booklets still came even during the show, it was confusing
by bouncy x
-
Made to look like the artwork that came w/ the toys. All gritty and kind of dark. It should be PG-13 bordering R and all the kiddies would flock to it. It could be the closest thing to Conan we've seen only featuring a giant, armored green tiger and a knock-down-drag-out w/ Trap-Jaw. And screw all that Prince Adam & Orko crap.
-
Contrary to popular belief, creating a movie out of the silly cartoons we watched as children can not be "done right." Enough is enough.
-
Here are some character redesigns by Marko Djurdjevic, pretty dope:
http://tinyurl.com/6bko9d -
and He-Man to be a brooding Vampire, the kids will love it
-
i can hear it now. all the fanboys cry out in unison: "it has to be R rated or it will suck!" lame.
-
It was 43 years ago today that Frankenstein Jr. and the Impossibles, Space Ghost, and the New Adventures of Superman premiered on Saturday morning.And yes, it is a little disconcerting that I would remember that.
-
Both HE-MAN and CONAN seem to be difficult to bring back to the big screen. VERY TRICKY. Both could flop BIG TIME if not done right.
-
Dont bother oiling up ol' gay cartoon icon. He'll be takin it up the ass someplace else-preferably on direct to DVD. He-Man is a gay kids CONAN.

This movie has to be R rated, it's the only way to keep it from feeling campy. Look for Fox to pick it up and do it right.

Thank fucking Christ, toy / 80s cartoon adaptations should die
by tall_boy66
Seriously, why in God's name does anyone wanna sit through this shit anymore. DIDN'T WE LEARN ANYTHING FROM G.I. JOE AND THE MEDIOCRITY OF TF2? Or, lemmie guess, you idiots are still salivating at the prospect of a Voltron adaptation too?

Who the fuck wants an R-Rated He-Man movie? Are you fucking high
by tall_boy66
It's an 80s cartoon. HOW was that cartoon bordering R-rated in the fucking slightest? It had a character called Battle Cat for crissakes! And a wacky flying wizard named Oroko. Ugh. R-RATED?! I hate people but my particular disdain will have to settle for 80s nostalgia right now. The reason these were good when you were kids was because kids are retarded and generally like crap. No need to see it again. Burn this movie to the fucking ground, and burn the people who want to see it right along side of 'em.
-
You know you want it.
-
I think studios will wait to see how THOR turns out before moving forward with He-man. Get Thundercats rollin and forget about He-man for now. Lets see something that hasnt been done already. Yeah I know Im asking for too much
-
I loved He-Man as a kid...I mean, at least until I was 11 years old or so. I don't know exactly when, but I sat down to watch it and went "Fuck, really?" after a while...then came that shitty Dolph Lundgren movie that trashed it all and killed all my interest forever.
The ONLY way I could be remotely interested in a He-Man movie at this point is if it had so little to do with the original cartoon that it was almost a brand new concept - I don't give a shit who says what, Michael Bay actually got me INTERESTED in Transformers again. All of the Bay haters here can bitch all they want, but a Transformers movie that stuck WITH the cartoon concept, didn't have Megan Fox and dogs humping would have been the gayest thing ever. And hey, I LOVED the last two Transformers movies, fuck you if you don't like it, you know? I'm willing to bet a LOT of people here loved them both but won't admit it for fear of not being internet-cool...
Fuck it, let Michael Bay do He-Man. At least it'll hold my attention and give me some laughs while shit's blowing up and I'm actually enjoying myself. -
is it me, or does Skeletor look gayer than usual in that pic?
-
i think mattel was planning on putting its might behind a conan toy line but when the movie proved to violent they came out with He-Man instead. The booklets that came with the toys are very odd indeed. I always felt like he-man was written by finnish doods and then transalted to english.
-
wanted to make MOTU2 and spiderman at the same time but lost the rights to both properties. The unused sets from both movies ended up in cyborg.
-
Thank you sir. Thank you. There's very few people around here that can look past their childhood nostalgia to admit that the cartoons we loved so much as kids are, in fact, crap. I first came to that revelation about 6 years ago when at a friend's house I had the dubious pleasure of watching the original Transfrormers cartoon on DVD, the first time I'd seen it in nearly two decades. Boy was it crap, and it was there I realized that, Bay or any other director, Transformers was going to be a lousy movie.
-
art and comic book concepts beyond the sillier 'toons. Really, we've heard this obstinate and lazy song before.
-
Stop with the gay stuff. The design of He-Man alone resembles Conan. He sure ain't gay!Oh, and maybe someone at WB sat through Transformers and G.I. Joe this summer, and feared He-Man would lead to a similar train wreck.
-
it's trying to be can go fuck itself. Transformers 2 was the worst POS I ever saw. Masters of the Universe will be even shittier
-
Maybe that dude can work out how to make a PUNISHER sequel instead.
-
A producer Warner doesn't trust with big projects anymore and a script from one of the laziest hacks to break into the industry recently. The whole thing's designed to promote a character Warner doesn't own, as opposed to the dozens of viable DC characters that they do. Can we figure out why this went nowhere?
-
He-Man = Gay Man. Totally ghey doood.
-
I watched ThunderCats on Boomerang last year and laughed my ass off. That was a horribly written show. And I own Transformers The Movie. And yep that sucked on a repeat viewing as an adult. I know He-Man had the same problems as those other cartoons. But you know what I don't care. If they are going to make the damn thing anyway. Please make it comprehensible and keep the characters with the same personalities and motivations. ANd no Stupid ass Orko or whatever that goblin was in the MOTU movie in the 80's. I don't expect the movie to win an Oscar all though if written correctly and shot as a fantasy movie like LOTR or TLDR. And have people that can act and sell the fucking action and characters, then you'll have a great movie. Not just a movie based on a toy. But a movie, that's just cool on it's own. Like Conan. A comic book turned movie. Shit no one even new it was a comic where I grew up. You know something it doesn't even matter. They are going to get some schmuck to write some lame shitty story; where He-Man, Man At Arms and Mechaneck fuck on mountain and wait for Fisto to show up to complete the party, and Tela films it all with the sword of Omen. Because Hollywood can't keep properties strait or characters. I hate hollywood so much. I've just made myself a little depressed. Going to watch Transformers The Movie again. Because I have the Touch I have the Power. Yup I'm a fat sad little man.
-
I've seen a clip from the cartoon where there are two He-Man's and the bad one kills the good one, or appears to by sending off a cliff. I don't know what happened though but I expect he came back.
-
...or whenever it came out. Optimus Prime and and old generation characters getting killed off in the first fifteen minutes? I was in 8th grade and shouted "GAY!" at the screen. Prime had taken TEN TIMES that beating in previous cartoons and lived through it. At the end, with the introduction of all the new characters, I realized that the ONLY purpose of Transformers: The Movie was to introduce the next gen toys and get rid of the old ones. I felt REALLY, REALLY ripped off and that's where I lost my interest in Transformers. Luckily enough, Michael Bay found a way to bring it back.
-
shit flavoured ice cream. Noone wants it!
-
another bad movie remake we don't have to watch the trailers for
-
Transformers generation 2 sucked the only thing good in that line was Galvitron. The swoops sucked and so did the sharktacons and other shitty cons and ultramagnus. Yeah I said it. Ultramagnus was lame. And don't get me started on Rodimus Prime.....
-
Ehhhh whichever. He sucked ass though. Grimlock should have been leader of the Autobots. It's cause he was a Ri Tard he didn't get the job. And that's just rude to the "special" people. He was as capable as anyone.
-
You confirmed my greatest nightmare Someone who was brought back by Bay. Geesh The Original movie may have killed all the characters you grew up with but it kind of made you face death you take a cartoon like Gi joe Wish had battles every episode but nobody ever died therefore no battle ever had any wieght to it in the Transformer movie you had no idea who was going to live or die therefore the battle had wieght and feeling not to mention there were great performances from Leonard Nimoy, Chris Latta, Robert Stack, and Orson Wells.
-
damn you for a lack of edit button.
-
Stop being a jerk! Just cos he couldn't bend his arms (no elbows) and wore flared trousers... When Optimus got canned who stepped up to the plate huh? He was the ORIGINAL flame decal prime. Optimus is just a wannabe!

Transformers, He-Man, and Thundercats were great....
by gibsonusa returns
Going back and watching the kids shows you used to love and saying "that sucks" as adults...whats with that? So does this mean that in a few yrs the new crop of aging geeks will do that with Power Ranger..."the acting and story sucks! it was repetitive! same thing every show!"....I can see it now.
The shows were great, which is why the brands endure. -
Sep 10, 2009 2:40:42 PM CDT
bueno_bob, i had the same realization a few years back
by jackknifed_juggernaut
while catching an episode of Thundercats. though it was a focal part of my religion as a child, i saw as an adult that it really was, in fact, shit. and that goes fucking double for He-Man.
-
Look, I can understand there's a deeper mythology to GI Joe and Transformers that developed in Larry Hama's comics and yadda yadda yadda. There is NOTHING to He-Man that deepens it's mythology beyond the cartoons. And the cartoons are awful. There's no iconic comic book source you can draw from like in GI Joe. I can see where you can dig stuff out for GI Joe and Transformers, but you can't play that obstinate and lazy song with He-Man. Cause it doesn't exsit.
-
Optimus came back and kicked ass twice. Rodimus was a little bitch. Hiding behind Ultra Magnus and heh heh heh R.C. Shit even old ass Puck had to save that loser. Oh by the way thanks for getting me started. And Optimus didn't need any weak flames thats some Bayshit. Optimus just opened cases of whoop-ass everytime he was on screen. Which is why they brought him back over and over again and never gay ass Hot Rod oh I mean Pussimuss
-
You just have to place it into context. We as 6-10 yr olds watch and grow up with the Transformers show, Optimus vs Megatron, where the laser blasts almost always miss, and when they do hit there's barely any damage...however we connect to the characters throughout the episodes, have our favorites, and have the toys of our favorites which we bring to school.
Then the movie comes out, and compared to the tv show is completely badass. The shots do damage. Prowl gets gunned down and we see Wheeljack ****** the **** up. Optimus goes and the Autobots are on the run.
From that context watching as a kid, it was so badass! It should be noted that most of the original Decepticons survived. Soundwave, the Constructicons, Blitzwing...pretty much everyone except some of the jets survived. Many of the Autobots survived as well....Jazz, Blaster, Dinobots, etc...so it wasnt a clean switch to new toys.
Now, from that context, switch to the context of a now aging geek pulling TF movie off the shelf, watching it as an adult, and saying "this sucks." Um, you can do that with 90% of kids shows imo. Like I said, aging geeks a few yrs from now will be doing the same thing with Power Rangers and VR Troopers. -
It was a live action rip-off of Voltron. And the acting was shit. Amy-jo Johnson is hot then and now and so was that asian chick. But yeah it was shitty. Comptuer guy :I need teenagers with attitudes" Light beam gets a group of 5 kids and bring them to his head quarters. And they all no Karate. and hung out with each other before hand. Get the fuck out of here. LAMEEEEEE... I watched Exo-Squad instead. Better story better character.Lots of folks died in that.
-
was All mom who wrote angry letters because there children couldn't handle his death. While I was glad to have him back it kind of fealt like a cop out the same way There were no deaths in the GI joe movie.
-
But they were relegated to the back burner except Soundwave and his crew (rumble kicks all types of ass), nightrain, and a Shockwave and a few others. But it didn't have the same feel not just because it was darker. But because the characters didn't have a personality anymore. That's what killed it. You only had 5 characters with personalities that made you watch; after they killed off the ones everyone identified with they didn't replace them with anyone of note. You paid attention to how dumb everyone was and went outside and played ball.
-
If you weren't at 7-11 years you were a sociopathic, evil some bitch. Optimus was someone you could look up to. He never did the wrong or cowardly thing. But Hot Rod is a punk.
-
That is the Transformers I swear by. I'll take Hot Rod and Wheelie over those getto ass formers from the Bay films. And whoever was disappointed simply due to the second film is confused. The first Bay-formers was even worse.
-
Should be used for inspiration. There is so much canon available for this - Great stories happening. So many people dismiss the brand because Filmation made it very non-story centric. There is so much potential here, and I am so pissed this happened after years of waiting.

How in God's name is the second Bay Transformers movie better?
by tall_boy66
The first one actually had a story that it wrapped around the slow reveal of the Transformers and their world. The second one had nothing to wrap your head around, it was giant fucking robots from frame one and it lost the sense of awe the first one had.
-
Why not make a Bravestarr movie? It will finally catapult The Rock to A-level heights!
-
That would go great with a X rated HE-MAN: MASTER OF MAN-ASS!
-
Why did the kooky Religious Right go after Telly Tubbies and Spongebob as promoting the Gay when the real culprit was right under their noses? Thats right-I'm looking at you, He-Man.

Flash, he save everyone of us. Flash, Ming and Freddie Mercury......

the idea was for cyborg and he-man to use the same set/props, to save $$. wikipedia says a spiderman movie was also going to use the same set.
-
Really, most movies out there now have so much CG they are almost animated.
-
that is all
-
I concur. Never in my wildest dreams as a pre-teen dork did I imagine that the likes of GI Joe, He-Man and Transformers would be the biggest, baddest movies on everyone's minds. I really had this belief back in those days, you know after Empire Strikes Back, Blade Runner and Star Trek II that movies would get better and better.

Go with the director. Pay for it yourselves if you have to.
This will be a monster hit if done right and not go hollywood stupid.
How about Neil Bromkamp and film it in South Africa? -
they saw what happened to Transformers and said "fuck that, lets find someone who will try to take our brand to the next level for a few million, rather than go for a one time money shot that will be in the 5.99 bin in six months"
-
you're welcome
-
I mean, there are no more Arnold's out there to take these roles on. I'm trying to be optimistic but it seems like this movie will definitely be made and it will definitely suck ass. As far as ThunderCats goes, how and the hell will they pull that off live action?

redkamel, you think Mattel is actually DISDAINFUL of Transformer
by tall_boy66
I think there's 725,816,941 million domestic theatrical release reasons for them to be DROOLING AND MASTURBATING FURIOUSLY at the prospect of having their own Transformers-sized hit.
-
I would love Thundercats above all else. Vin Diesel as Panthro, Megan Fox as Cheetara (actually Zoe Saldana would be much better), Andrew Garfield as Lion-O, Anthony Hopkins as the elder Thundercat who dies at the beginning (can't remember the character's name but he's like an Obi-Wan ghost figure), Jim Carrey as the voice of Snarf, Zac Efron as Wily-Kat and Vanessa Hudgens as Wily-Kit (god, that girl makes me come), Matt Damon as Tygra, Michael Emerson as Slithe (you know it, I know it), some dodgy actor hamming it ups as Mumm-ra. MAKE THIS NOW!!!! The story of Thundercats is very good, it would seriously make a great movie. He-man and the Masters of the Universe could also be amazing if done right. Wasn't there supposed to be a script lurking a couple of years ago that would have been the most expensive fantasy movie ever made if they had shot it from the page??

Cmon, what kid didn't get a tear in the eye when...
by pissed off and bitter
Optimus came back? Then he goes on to save the universe, and yes, Hot Rod, who all got infected by that hate virus by using the power of the Matrix of Leadership and the awesome 80's song 'The Touch'. That, my talkback friends, is how you resurrect a character....
-
And then everything will be fine.
-
Just to prove just how godawful that song was. Keep it in the 80's.
-
is freaking hi-larious! "Who Prince Adam?" "Uh-oh!"
-
The original version, anyway. If you look up Stan Bush's attempt at a remake in honor of Bayformers 2, be prepared for suckage.
-
but I don't think the majority of geekdom wants a He-Man movie. It would be a waste of money. It was already done, and it sucked. We already have a Thundercats movie coming out this December. It's called "Avatar". Spend the money of something better Hollywood.
-
Twelve skants lined up to change his oil... filthy dirty car sexing skanks.
-
Impossible, I say. The thing is inherently kitschy and yes, pretty gay. Not gay-stupid. Gay-alternative lifestyle. If you're into it, cool, not that there's anything wrong with that, as George Costanza would say.
The most you can expect from a He-Man movie is something fun, without the self awareness or irony, for the kids. -
There's no problem in Finding someone Big enough There are enough Pro Body Builders, Wrestlers, and UFC fighters to fit the Bill. the problem is Ever since Bruce Willis did Diehard there has been a neccessity for action heroes to actually act. Arnold can not act and early in his career his movie where tailored around his inability to speak proper english by cutting his lines, pretty much What is effectively done to Keanu Reeves. Point is, get some big dumb wreslter surround him with a great supporting cast cut his lines to simple reaction stuff and we a new golden age of action cenima.
-
That was a horrible song, it made me look at my best friend in a new light. A rainbow bright light. Keep it in the 80's. And sure there are big guys who can play He-Man. But the problem with that is, He-Man talks to to much in the series. The big guys out there now would just be 6Ft 200lbs of non acting suck with lines or an emotional ark. And He-Man AIN't Gay. He bones Tela and Evil Lynn.. Yeah that's right he bangs her too.

by razorphish
There has to be somebody out there who has enough dough and the sac to start making movies the correct way and not hollywood them up. Like my super run-on sentence? thanks
-
I don't care what anyone says, Masters of the Universe was a great fun flick. Lundgren was perfect and it is a dumb 80's flick that never fails to make me smile, along with Critters, Killer Klowns, Vamp etc. Lots of fun. Fuck any remake.
-
I mean really He-Man playing football is about as good as the Thundercats being a rock band in their spare time.
-
nothing can make this cool to anyone over 15. No matter what.
-
Heman always aimed at a lower age group int he first place. The Dolph lungren one actually his on the mark very well into what the series was about. The thing that Hollywood ( and other people ) don't understand is that there ISN'T ANYTHING ELSE. There is no further depth to explore here. It's an exceedingly simple plotted series.
-
I'm actually a big fan of the characters and the concept of the world. I even had that fucking ETERNIA playset that linked Castle Greyskull to Snake Mountain. See what a geek I am? "Stinkor, return to the convention in your Star Trek disguise!"
-
The tone was actually just right, and the cast was awesome with a few exceptions. I just wish we'd gotten Orko instead of that shit scientist.

Who the shit wants to see He-Man come to Earth????? Terrible.

all i remember is playing with he man at lunch at school and we had stickers on juice poppers to show off and trade.do they really think it will be the same?sure ill watch the movie but my kid couldnt give a shit about he man he wants to drift race.
-
Was Frank Langella he really sold his Skeletor.
-
Guillermo del Toro or maybe Tarsem Singh. Needs someone who will paint the screen. Problem is this material is to much of a turd for either of them to touch it. Produce maybe.
-
Rumors has it that they wanted to make the He-Man movie darker and simular to 300 mixed with the failed cartoon series re-boot from a few years ago (which blew away the original cartoon).
I don't like the idea that He-Man is battling Skeletor for control of a magical land (wtf). Stick close to the original stories. A live action version of the 2002 series would be awesome. I mean seriously, you really have to make a awful movie to top the original live action movie (however Stephen Sommers managed to do that with G.I. Joe).
With TF 2 and G.I. Joe being attacked by the critics I fear He-Man may never make it back to the big screen and if it does will it be any good? The thought of their being directed by the guy behind Kung Fu Panda really has me worried but he's no Bay or Sommers. -
Not true. There were mini comics that came with the original He-Man toys that had the visual tone of older, pulpy S&S/Sword & Planet stories, before the cartoon came along and geared it more for kids.
-
Sep 11, 2009 4:03:03 AM CDT
So you're saying the only decent source is the toy-comics?
by tall_boy66
Yeah, I know they came packaged with Toy Comics. But saying that's some be-all-and-end-all which makes He Man worth adapting is ludicrous. The series was, from step one, intended to sell more toys. The adaptation of the cartoon was basically just the mini-comics and it was still the same thing: He Man, Skeletor, Eternia, etc. etc. They just added more toys. But this all boils down to a simple point: there is no depth of mythology or character to He-Man. You can get away with that in GI Joe or Transformers (if the live action adaptations succeeded is another debate entirely). But, for He-Man. There. Is. Nothing. There.

Even as a kid i wasn't much into Masters Of The Universe
by asimovlives
And let's be frank here, the 80's movie sucked. Take off the nostalgia glasses, and what we get is a poorly made movie on the cheap. By Cannon Group, for fuck's sake!I can already see what a new MoU movie would be, a non-stop CGI extravaganze with no plot, no sense, no real sense of wonder, and no characters to give a shit about. Fuck it. Make it a cartoon, not a live action movie, it would had a chance that way.
