He-Man and the Masters of the Universe
 
Talk about 80's.. Anyone watch this cartoon?

At least check out this parody of He-man singing 4 Non blondes ...

Its hysterical...

I loved He-Man and She-Ra. My brother and I had quite a collection.

4 Non Blondes? WTF?

I like this one better.

I looked around a bit and there are some bad things out there labeled "spoofs" but are just fart jokes. :rolleyes:

I watched the cartoon of course, but even then I wasn't thrilled with it. But my young junior high mind really liked the live action movie they did. I've never seen it since and I'm guessing it is probably best that I not.

VAM. There are some things best left to childhood memory...

I'd say you're certainly better off keeping your memories of the live action film hazy. My greatest problem with it was that it simply plopped some of the series characters into a then-contemporary suburban setting. complete with Elliot-like teenage kid. I imagine this was a budget mandated decision, but I would have preferred a fantasy environment, even if that meant filming out in some nearby wilderness and adding a few cheesy sets and matte paintings. (It worked for Krull, The Sword and the Sorceror and numerous other Conan wannabes at that time, and I ate those movies up.)

These days, an eye catching Masters of the Univrse movie could be made on a modest budget. It would almost certainly be awful, but I'd probably give it a rental.

Haha, CP! I think I've seen your link before, it's a good one.

I don't have the time right now, but I'll have to look up some of my favorite He-Man spoofs. For the time being, I just wanna say that Robot Chicken rocks my 1980s cartoon universe. I dig it when a spoof can be reverent while lampooning my childhood Saturday mornings.

We need a Masters of the Universe vs. Thundercats movie.

blueerica 05-23-2007 11:24 AM

That would be insane.

And no contest! :p I did enjoy both, and did my share of pretending I was Cheetara in my backyard. My brother had the awesome Thundercats sword which lit up. But come on, there's no way they'd win against the massive army of the MotU.

Im probably being too lazy, but wasnt later in the series a bunch of new thundercats that joined.... were they robots??? I guess i should google that..
