According to Quora He-Man and Superman are nearly identical in physical strength...thoughts?

He-Man wins for he has the power of a glistening body.
Screen Junkies. I think that’s probably true about their strength. Both of them are as strong or as vulnerable as the plot needs them to be at any given moment.
John Wick 2 still doesn't has an Honest Trailer somehow...
do for peakyblinder series
could you kindly do a Honest Trailer for Bohemian Rhapsody?
subtract the Queen music everyone loves and you're left with a mediocre and inaccurate movie whitewashing all of Freddie Mercuries shortcomings.
True fact, the producers first told the director "keep this movie child friendly" but later when the film was half finished they said "do whatever you want including adding violence, our company is going bakrupt and we need this movie to be a hit"
To which the director probably asked for more money to actually finish it and im assuming that was just met with laughter
Ladies & Gentlemen, legendary actor Frank Langella's favorite role!
....No, seriously, it was. He took the role of Skeletor because his child loved He-Man. Has said in interviews that he had a ball making this movie.
Was it a blockbuster? No, but it does look like it was fun to make.
He chewed so much scenery in it, it would be hard *not* to have fun being Skeletor in that film. He's like the one perfect part of the movie.
The film is definitely all about Skeletor for me.
He was clearly enjoying himself. His Skeletor and Raul Julia’s M. Bison transcend their films by light years.
"Unless that plane crashed into Snake Mountain, I don't care." This describes so many superfluous plots in movies for me.
lol
every 80's authority figure --- I couldn't stop laughing
seen921 seriously, what 80’s movie was he NOT in!? The OG Samuel L Jackson...
so true!!!!
Slacker!!
my favourite is the title Courtney Cox Dead Parents, best alternate name yet
Marty McFly in the 50s: “Didn’t he ever have hair?”
The Mrs and I were lucky enough to meet Dolph Lundgren at a con in Melbourne, Australia in 2015. He was the nicest and kindest guy you could imagine. I was able to say everything that I’d been waiting nearly 30 years to say in about 12 seconds without fanboying out on him.
I told him he’d always be He-man to me and that he was perfectly cast. I thanked him for the memories and for being my hero all these years. He seemed genuinely appreciative and signed my MOTU movie poster. He even remembered us later on when we crossed paths again and said he said hi.
He was every part the He-man I’d always hoped he’d be.
They say don’t meet your heroes in case you’re disappointed, but they weren’t talking about Dolph Lundgren.
:)
I always thought he would've been an amazing terminator
I always got a good vibe from him. Nice to hear he's a cool dude in real life.
This is the sweetest comment. :)
It's hit and miss with celebrities but I wouldn't mind meeting him.
Did you ask him, “So you were in He-Man, but have you ever been in a She-Man?”
I’m sure he was a great guy, after all, he was a champ on The Eric Andre Show.
“Courtney Cox’s Dead Parents featuring Gwildor” = most accurate title of a movie ever
"Its my fault my parents died."
"It was a plane crash."
My only thought was Was she flying the plane and then ejected herself out of the cockpit, thus killing her parents? Therefore it was her fault.
Well if you go by her logic, I preferred going to my mom over my dad when I cried and so that must be why he left my family when I was ten!
Wow.. too real man. I'd make a joke, but I can't
Its been years since I've seen the movie but IIRC it was something she did or wanted that caused them to be on the plane in the first place so she blamed herself.
When loved ones die like that, you're always struggling for a reason. Her reaction is actually pretty realistic.
@@NavyGuy2OO7 They wanted to go to the beach as a family thing. She wanted to play on the holodeck with Tom Paris and told them she had to study. So her parents decided to rent a plane and her dad Johnny Denvered into a mountain or something.
"Luckily, He has his mystical sword of power... To balance his gun-shooting arm"
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
lol
Watching He-man speak is oddly endearing. It's like he's trying really hard and is pleased with his progress.
Hurdy gurdy
Missed opportunity to fit in an "Alan!" during the Gwildor montage..
its supposed to be in there somewhere.
@@potterpotty01 I know the Raptor is supposed to be, but with it actually saying Alan would have fit in perfectly.
Or a "Newman!"
Michael Waffle Thought it’d be a clip of “HODOR,” myself.
I was waiting for a HODOR lol
Frank Langella was wonderful in this. I've read that he did it for his grandkids (or was it his kids?). He obviously had a lot of fun with it!
If only Kevin had the Cosmic Key with him he wouldn't have spent seven years in the Delta Quadrant.
"It was a -plane- shuttle crash."
Which means it was _his_ fault.
The actress who played the Sorceress also played Courtney Cox's mother on FRIENDS.
Now I'm thinking of the Sorceress having sex in the bathroom for some reason...
HOLY SHIT you're right! I never knew that.
i am A HUGE friends fan and I missed this lol...
Bet she bitched about Monica being in the film lol
Craziest Easter egg. Ever
Fun fact: dolph lundgren has a degree in chemical engineering
Yeah, he even had a scholarship at MIT that he gave up to become Grace Jones' bodyguard, which then got him into "acting".
Paraphrase Spider-Man;
"Whyyyy did I agree/ to do this stupid movie/ I have a degree/ In chemical engineering."
And he served in the Swedish navy as a marine during the (hot) cold war, hunting Russian spetznas infiltration teams.
That explains his oily chest.
Numbskull... numb from stoichiometry and dimensional analysis.
*"The definitive 'He-Man' movie.....because it's the only one."*
Wrong. There is an animated film called The Secret of the Sword starting He-man and She-ra
Gwildor can't be a drinking game, nobody would survive the night.
He-man: I must break you.
Skeletor Balboa: He has broken things in me that have never been fixed.
I ain't gonna kill you, He-Man!
Do Zombieland before the sequel comes out (please??)!!!
And A Scooby Doo On Zombie Island honest trailer too since it is also getting a sequel
And Warner Bros crapped all over Scooby Doo On Zombie Island with the dumpster fire called Scooby Doo Return to Zombie Island.
So once they thought of the word Gwildor, they basically had half the script
Right? It's been awhile, so I don't remember, but I think Gwildor was a new addition to the toys thanks to the movie. They probably did that to promote the new figure. I have him somewhere.
I have to admit: I F****ING LOVE THIS MOVIE xD
Because you are a MAN. I love it, too. :)
It is a very fun movie and a perfect time-capsule of it's era.
(And, it's so different from the cartoon because it's secretly a New Gods adaptation instead.)
guilty pleasure!
The authority figure from every 80s movies! Lols😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
I actually didn't realize it was a cut-away at first when they did that montage, lol
He was also authority figure in Judge Dredd but that was in the 90s
Can we appreciate that Dolph Ludgren has had all the iconic roles of a lifetime and still ends up on the B list
I will say skeletors speech when he became a god was boss...
"Where are they? Where are your friends now? Tell me about the loneliness of good, He-Man. Is it equal to the loneliness of evil?" Diabolical!
"woman at arms" best line lol
Kinda disappointed there wasn't a Tom Paris, Star Trek: Voyager joke.
I had to do a double take while watching and check IMDB. I never noticed Tom Paris was in this.
@@darwinxavier3516 No need. He is!
I knew he looked familiar. Glad you mentioned Star trek Voyager
I kept seeing him and trying to figure out where I’d seen him before. Thanks! I wonder if Dan had no involvement in this one.
@@NarfiRef Dan?
Honest trailer for The Interview? You have my seal of approval
First an "Emoji Movie"... now a "Funko Movie"... yes, the "Memes Movie" is getting more and more inevitable
I just find it funny that Skelator's face prosthetic from this film was reused for a Holodeck character that Worf fights in Star Trek TNG.
Making it the second Trek connection this movie has.
This movie definitely has major problems but Langella's Skeletor is expertly acted. Easily the high point of the movie.
Seriously, he is the reason that this bad movie is actually watchable
I don't have a source on hand but I've heard more than once that it was apparently his favorite role he's ever done. I guess because he just got to have fun with it.
Ohh you mean Skelet-er?? hahaha
It was a great performance . Too bad it was wasted on a shit show of a film.
Wrong....Meg Foster as Evil-Lyn is the highlight of this movie!!
Say what you will, but Langella’s Skeletor is art and remains one of the best super villain performances to this day.
100% agreed!
yes.....
It was beyond award worthy.
No scenery left unchewed.
Best villain performance period.
I clearly haven't seen this movie since before elementary school, and you've almost convinced me to watch it again just for laughs.
"Hobocop" OK that cracked me up. XD
Dispite the low quality of the movie (still one of my childhood favorites) the soundtrack was great and deserves praise for it being way better than it should be.
I'd soon rather watch Short Circuit 2 while having my eyes stabbed with a spoon that ever watch this garbage again
This is what I wanted to say. The music makes the movie so much better than it should be.
Okay so now that you've done He-Man, you definitely need to do Flash Gordon.
What a fantastic movie!!! Talk about the Final Disco Space Opera ever!!! Ranks up there with Barbarella!!!
FLASH GORDON, SAVIOUR OF THE UNIVERSE
Flash! Ahaaahh!
You want not dare to blame Flash Gordan, that film is alone becuse the theme invulureable. with that Theme, they could have shown 90 hours a brickwall with nothing on and it had been epic.
OPEN FIRE!!!
Glad to see you picked up on the principal from BTTF dropping swears in a kids movie. So Mattel weren't happy with He-Man killing anyone, but swearing and a pretty hardcore S&M scene. Yeah, go nuts guys....
After hearing it so many times, “Gwildor” doesn’t even sound like a word anymore.
Frank Langella's Skeletor is so awesome in this.
He knocks the other actors off the screen with his intensity.
And it is not easy to knock Meg Foster out of my brain, she has those hypnotic witch eyes.
I read he loved doing this character precisely because he got to do a dumb over the top villain
Skeletor is so awesome in this movie. It's still Frank Langella's favourite role of all time.
@@Tenpouin pretty sure he took the role 'cuz his kid loved skeletor in the cartoons
@@elizabethmcwhorter3445 I dunno why he took it, I just remember reading somewhere he loved doing this over the top acting of a villain. The mask could be better so we could see more of it
I think it's the best performance of any villain in a movie along with Daniel Day Lewis as Bill the Butcher
I'll take Masters of the Universe over Superman 4 anyday
Who wouldn't!?
@@swamphawk6227 You mean Nuclear Man?
What about Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo also made by canon?
Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo
I have to say this - I completely loved this film when I was a kid. This film brought a smile to my face.
Well you just made my next viewing of MoTU into a drinking game thanks to the “Gwildor” supercut! What’s left of my liver thanks you!
Say: "They don't pay me enough to do this; in fact, they don't pay me at all."
Please do a trailer on "Big trouble in little China"
I don't know if Honest Trailers can handle the most awesomest movie ever made.
It's all in the reflexes.
The Pork Chop Express approves this request!
I also would like to see Big Trouble in Little China!
Can't... That movie was perfect
say : "it's time to kick ass and chew bubble gum... and I'm all outa gum..."
Thanks guys, now all I can Gwildor is Gwildor. Gwildor Gwildor Gwildor, what the Gwildor? For Gwildors sake. GWILDOR .
HOLD THE GWILDOORRRRR
Plot twist, Dolph Lundgren is ridiculously smart in real life. He has a Master's degree in chemical engineering.
Seriously, not everyone knows that but the people that care have known for decades. I can't stand to hear it once more
That's not a plot twist, it's just a fact
Please do an Honest Trailer to Who Framed Roger Rabbit !
I just commented the same thing! Love that movie.
Same!
Yes please!
I'm honestly surprised they haven't done it already
Yes! Definitely do Roger Rabbit
Masters of the Universe is to He-Man what Batman 89 is to Batman. A pretty cool movie that doesn't resemble the source material that much. The end fight was absolutely epic though.
Do Voyage of the Rock Aliens 😂
Batman 89? Are you crazy? It's still one of the high point of Batman on film. Would you rather watch Kilmer or Clooney over Keaton?
Uh...noooo. Batman 89 is to Masters of the Universe what a Chick-fil-A chicken sandwich is to a McDonald's chicken nugget. You can eat them both and you can like them both, but it's for vastly different reasons.
@@RaymondGW there will be an epic he man cartoon.
All things considered...this movie is a masterpiece in comparison to that Netflix abomination.
One thousand times yes.
Beat me to it. I really hate Kevin Smith.
@@jvask33zie i used to like the guy , 2 guesses why i dont anymore lol
When I was a kid the holy trinity of 80s fantasy was Legend, Krull and Masters of the Universe
I love Krull. The spider scene always creeped me out as a kid but such a fun movie, especially with the shapeshifter.
Legend still holds up today. Love it. The practical effects were on point and Tim Curry was a master as Darkness. Best villain ever.
And Dragonslayer, Labyrinth, Willow, Star Wars, The Dark Crystal, Heavy Metal, etc are easily better than Masters of the Gayman.
I’m terribly sorry I can’t like this comment more than once.
@@mytigger1957 you're sorry you can't like it more than once. I'm sorry I can't date the OP. lol
"So no one told you He-Man's gonna come your way"
[clap clap clap clap]
Was waiting for a Friends reference and wasn't disappointed
@@vitorkk328 It's a shame they messed up the claps though.
69th like, nice.
Cox is a waitress and her brother plays a keyboard? I think Friends ripped this movie off.
"Your life's dead as your folks, and Gwildor's D.O.A.!" [clap clap clap clap clap] "Feels like you're always stuck in eternia..."
"Bone jaw is readdddyyyy" That killed me😂😂
That was so funny lol
I love this movie though. It's, by far, one of my favorites.
Where is the Blade Runner 2049 honest trailer?
Probably waiting closer to Dune's release so they can do all Denis Villeneuve's films as the buzz for Dune will have people finally watching his movies.
Patience is a virtue, young one
Star Trek Beyond as well!!!
@@somerandolad I Agree With You.
Blade runner 2049 is so good they will take a while to find enough flaws to joke about
They put Frank Langella under pounds of prosthetics to make him look like Jack Palance.
that comment made me giggle
and sound like him too!
I'm trying not to wake up my kids with my laughter 🤣🤭
Aw man. That one's gold.
Legit thought that's who he was this whole time. Kid me apparently never bothered to read credits.
You should do an Honest Trailer for the 1990 IT miniseries! "They all float down here..."
"Bonejaw is ready!"
Oh hell yes
Frank Langella's favorite movie role was Skeletor.
No joke.
Welcome to the Metaverse he stole the show in this film. And he would no matter who was opposite of him.
I mean, it makes sense. He took the role because his son was a fan, and he got to ham it up as an over the top villain.
"That is not how cleaning works" 😂
That finished me off
Tinashe Jerry the real life Courtney Cox was like "hey look everybody, I cleaned something! That was kinda fun! I wonder why are all my servants complain?"
@@sageoz9886
1. In that scene, her boyfriend "cleaned" up
2. It was purely a product placement scene
Yes, I'm fun at parties!
3:50 Trivia: The after credits scene wasn't in the screenplay. It was director Gary Goddard's idea. Gary Goddard had BOSS Studios prepare a vat of pink liquid. Goddard talked to Frank Langella and told him what he wanted him to do and that he was to get into the pink liquid wearing his skull mask and he was to surface, look at the camera and say the line "I'll be back!". Frank Langella agreed to do it and it was done in 1 take.
3:54REALLY?!?!! THAT much talent was involved?!!?!? That is truly AMAZING....
COURTNEY COX'S DEAD PARENTS. I DIED😂🤣😆
So thats why Tom Paris was in Starfleet jail before Voyager
He was also Wesley's friend Nick Locarno in TNG, who also ended up in Starfleet jail.
@@KasumiKenshirou Was that Alpha Squad or something?, the cocky elite cadet squad who screws up badly iirc
@@Its_Dave_Just_Dave Nova squadron. Because they blew a guy up!
@@KasumiKenshirou Yeah they just didn't want to have to pay the royalties of using the character of Nick Locarno, so they had to change his character to Tom Paris.
@@Chris-cb7zy Ahh thats it, could not remember what the squad was called
This is one of the best Honest Trailers and it took me this long to find. I LOVE IT
I absolutely thank all the gods for these videos. Congratulations!!
Evil-lyn and the Baroness from GI Joe were my first crushes....ah, the 80's
LOL don't forget Cheetara. I miss the 80"s they were great lol
Don't forget Ursa from Superman 2 :-)
Mine was Lady Jaye
Mine were She-Hulk from The Incredible Hulk show and that chick from the Action Man show (the CGI one).
I also had a thing for the bad girls. Still do. Not sorry.
Please do an HT of "Big Trouble in Little China". Thanks :)
What else needs to be sad than it's the greatest movie of all time?
This has to happen!!!
You know what Jack Burton says?
OMG YES!
kagato0987 - ‘Magic, the darkest magic’
You guys made my day, I’ve been requesting this movie for such a long time 😍 Thank you for sharing my comment in the intro!
I remember watching this movie with my friends.
We broke out laughing because someone in the credits was named "Kathryn Pickles" and my one friend yelled at one point "I can't take this anymore! THEY'RE EATING FRIED CHICKEN IN THE BUSHES!"
Ha ha you had 1 friend
Crom was vigorously amused and enjoyed this video, but still wishes to see an Honest Trailer for Conan The Barbarian (1982).
And if not, then to HELL with you.
I still wish Arnold's son would take up the mantle of Conan some day.
Either that or Arnold plays as old Conan after he's king and goes out Logan style as his final performance. Because let's face it he's too old now to go back to playing young Conan unless they go full CGI like in Terminator Genesys which was a disaster.
@@isaacgleeth3609 lol!
@@isaacgleeth3609 you deserve way way more likes for this comment
I literally just bought the bluray steelbook of this, and I'm not even ashamed.
Money well spent?
Looking forward to seeing the remake and Terry Crews as He-Man :)
5:40 "That is not how cleaning up works." True, they forgot to flip the switch for the disposal!
This movie is great, no one will ever convince me otherwise.
I was just thinking I'm glad I missed this one. Time is a limited resource.
I finally saw it all and was genuinely pleased haha
The authority figure from every 80s movie...😁😁 McFly your egos cashing cheques your body can’t cash
And somehow you're still a slacker!
*Awwww, man! Jeremy would have a field day with this movie! Definitely recommending this to CinemaSins!*
*With a bonus round for every time a character mentions "Gwildor!"*
Yes, this is the next best thing.
The reference to Bonesaw from the first Spider-Man movie by saying "Bonejaw is ready" was SOOOO PERFECT!!!
Ya got me with Dolph Lundgren's greatest weakness - Having to talk🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yes, but he makes a great Russian! By Hollywood's rules, anyone with an accent can play any part with _any_ accent! (Of course, 60-70% of ancient Romans, Greeks, etc. spoke with a High English Accent!)
This movie didn't showcase him well at all. I wonder though, who would have been a better '87 He-Man.. young Dolph or young Arnold? I loved Arnold as Conan.
Such a shame that a man so intelligent in life has zero acting capability.
@@oldenweery7510 Don't get me wrong, I'm a big fan of Dolph. It was just a funny line.
And yes, Hollywood has a long history of interesting casting choices. Nothing quite beats John Wayne playing Genghis Khan, though.
@Neil Hutchinson great choice but Fisher Stevens from Short Circuit and Mickey Rooney from Breakfast at Tiffany’s would like you to hold their beers 🤣
Also Lundgren in Rocky 4’s lines look like a Gary Oldman performance next to Stallone’s speech at the end.
The worst part of this whole thing was when they cleaned up by putting the trash and perfectly good oranges together in the sink. Truly triggered.
Bout time they recognized the greatest movie of all time ...
“The authority figure from every 80’s movie,” LOL!
“That is not how cleaning up works!” 🤣😂
"Gwildor gwildor" started to sound like "Hodor" to me? 🤣
Apparently this is Frank Langellas favorite movie hes ever been in.
This movie was great. I'm a big fan of He-man and I could understand the limitations they faced to make this movie. I know it hadn't almost anything related to the series, but it was more related to the HQ. I think they made they come to Earth because it was cheaper to film and it would make a but more compelling (although I would prefer Eternia but, well.. money talks)
Wow, Netflix replicate the formula with his Masters of the Universes Series XD , He-Man is in only 1 episode, leaving plenty of time for the real star of the show! Teela! XD
Now you really got to do Flash Gordon 1980...
"Flash! Aoohhhh....he's a miracle!"
At least I think that's what the theme song sounded like. Such a bad movie. Like The Black Hole from Disney which freaked me the heck out by the end but I loved it.
@@steprockmedia, I can't hear that song without thinking of "Blades of Glory", now🤣🤣🤣
There's a movie that's due for a reboot.
Wasn't expecting a Bonesaw reference, but it is greatly appreciated
The names for all of the cast this time might have been the best yet! Fantastic
Oh man Kudos on the accuracy of that huge Retro standard 80s font.. brings back fond memories of those Retro movies that just made no sense to a 8 year old.. still that font man IT'S SO LIT !
Do Short Circuit next. And say in your epic voice: “It’s time to hobnob with the big wigs!”
Short Circuit...yes, pls
YES!!! Please do Short Circuit!! also please say in your epic voice "Hey Laser Lips, your momma was a snowblower!"
David Hensley shoot that’s the quote I was trying to think of! 👍
That or Honey I Shrunk the Kids or Goonies. I don't think we've done either yet.
Then do Short Circuit 2. You have until now to think up something really hilarious about the Los Locos gang!
*Say "I HAVE THE POWER!!!!" In your epic voice.*
Finally. Been requesting for years!!!!!
I loved this movie when I was a kid and I still enjoy it
Wow, this sequel of Conan The Barbarian looks weird. I wonder why Arnold Schwarzenegger dyed his hair blond.
Just Some Guy without a Mustache the actual Conan sequel with Arnold Schwarzenegger was a lot worse than Masters of the Universe lol!!
Dude... you are everywhere!!
We need an honest trailer for Conan.
That's it, I'm counting how many times I see you
Sighting #1
@@aztn19 Dolph was also on set for that film as he was dating Grace Jones who was in it.
I finally know why I can remember Gwildor's name even after forgetting everything else.
GWILDOR!!!! That had me in goddamn tears.
I literally watched this movie last night. I was a huge fan of He-man as a kid and watched this vhs all the time. Rewatching it as an adult, I have to say it wasn't that bad. It was midnight and I was hitting the bong pretty hard though. I love the honest trailers family, you are all great. Thank you.
