The Circle is Open, and so is the bar! Join us as we opine our pagan way thru media whilst getting fuddled, muddled, raddled, and otherwise boozy! Drink on!
Credits are rocking out. Our takeaways?
ML: If it had picked a tone, or even two, it'd be good. But it tired for 12 different ones and now my head hurts.
Me: Just don't make a boring He-Man movie. That's all. Be sincere and make a He-Man movie.

Movie: Six months later
ML: SIX MONTHS LATER? Is everyone on this planet who's not a fighter a mason? Six months later my ASS.

He-Man: Beats the stuffing out of Skeletor
ML: I'm not entirely certain this fight wasn't animated by AI
August 30, 2026 at 2:24 AM
Movie: Lays out all the things
ML: We're laying this all out here, but Dolph Lundgren did this with acting and a language he didn't understand in the original.

ML: I mean. All cartoon villains in the 80s were queer-coded, but they're just hanging the lampshade on it in this movie.

Skeletor: goes HARD on the innuendo. Like. HARD HARD.
Me:

Trapjaw: Kills Roboto. Who we liked.
Me: Boooo.
August 30, 2026 at 2:08 AM
Movie: Teela and Adam ride in on Cringer.
ML: Wow. This looks HORRIBLE. They look like they're on a barrel.
August 30, 2026 at 2:07 AM
Movie: Continues to insert awkward instead of owning the moment.
Me: That's one of the biggest problems. You can't do He-Man without sincerity.
August 30, 2026 at 2:05 AM
Queen: is here
ML and Me: HELLO QUEEN!
August 30, 2026 at 2:01 AM
Welp. The movie decided to call back to Dolph Lundgren's cameo. Didn't see that coming as a rousing speech point, but here we are.
August 30, 2026 at 1:59 AM
ML: Is this the polar opposite of the Bechdel Test where two men talk about their feelings, and those feelings aren't about women?
August 30, 2026 at 1:55 AM
Skeletor: Does not get the He-Man sword mojo. Takes it out on Evil-Lyn
ML: Evil-Lyn, you are too smart for this, you need a new boss.
August 30, 2026 at 1:53 AM
King Not Aragorn: says some nice things while dying. Over a long time.
ML: This is not the same character as the beginning of the movie.
August 30, 2026 at 1:51 AM
Movie: Adam's Dad gets crushed by rocks, except not.
Me: Boy he's sure taking his sweet time to die, huh?
August 30, 2026 at 1:51 AM
He-Man: gets in a big fight
ML: There he is. Taking arms again.
Me: Weird signature move to have, bud.
August 30, 2026 at 1:45 AM
ML: The Sorceress is a very pretty hawk.
Me: Agreed. ... How does Adam remember which way to get to Snake Mountain?
August 30, 2026 at 1:40 AM
RELOAD!
Movie: Events continue to happen in chronological order.
Me: I have a cookie.
August 30, 2026 at 1:37 AM
Elba-at-Arms: finds his old armor
ML: Why was that trunk on the ship?
Me: Has this movie demonstrated its interested in ANYTHING that deep?
August 30, 2026 at 1:23 AM
Seems like He-Man's primary power is being a super ball.
August 30, 2026 at 1:19 AM
Movie: Another big action set piece
Me: Ooo, I have chips, this is nice.
August 30, 2026 at 1:18 AM
ML: He-Man would never nut shot. I'm just sayin'.
Me: He was a classy hero like that.
August 30, 2026 at 1:08 AM
Adam: Does the He-Man thing.
ML: Power of Grayskull tore his shirt off.
Me: And gave him a leather onesie in the trade-off.
August 30, 2026 at 1:06 AM
ML: Why do they spend SO MUCH MONEY to make LONG. BORING movies? If they were spending money to make long cool movies, that'd be great.
August 30, 2026 at 1:05 AM
ML: Another fantasy world that OSHA fails to pass due to lack of handrails.
