    Frank Langella is absolutely magnificent. He doesn't play it for camp, he goes straight on full villain, turning Skeletor from a cartoon joke into a truly terrifying villain and you can tell he's loving it. Also for 1987, that is a DAMN good makeup job and he spoke on how it helped him vanish into the role.
    "Give us one more chance..."
    "I am not in a giving vein this day."

      Langella did a two-part episode of ST: Deep Space Nine because his kids loved the show.

    As a kid who was born in the 80s and who had every single He-Man toy this movie meant the world to me when it came out.

    This flick may not have had the cash to give us what we wanted, but it's an absolute hoot. Loved it when I was ten, love it now.

  • @Anynom
    @Anynom Před rokem +4

    Oh on the bit of the kid winning the contest, I think rules said it had to be non-speaking as one line qualified him for a SAG card and Cannon didn't want to pay extra cost on that.

  • @michaelk8860
    @michaelk8860 Před rokem +5

    Fun facts that you may not know:
    Billy Barty: he actor that played Gwildor (sp?) also played the old wizard High Aldwin in Willow, Screwball in one of my favorite Tom Cruise movies Legend, and was Noodles the camera man in one of my All-Time Favorite Top 10 movies, UHF.
    The same actor that plays the cop was also Principal Strickland in the Back to the Future films and the captain in Top Gun.

  • @alanmike6883
    @alanmike6883 Před rokem +10

    Red.
    I have NO SHAME to say that I love this movie because even though it shouldn't work and almost everything goes, you still can't help but watch it and smile and laugh.
    And Langella as skelletor is frickimg awesome.
    You can tell frank enjoyed it 😊😊😊😊

    • @dredd1981
      @dredd1981 Před rokem +3

      Agree. It's a movie made with enough competence that you can like it, and enough incompetence that you can love it. And I love it....even got myself a stainless steel & bronze full size replica power sword a couple of years ago....probably not my wisest purchase but it's mine and it's awesome!

  • @gantz22ify
    @gantz22ify Před rokem +9

    Good video!
    I do have to say that the director of the film tried his best to make a good film, but Cannon shot him in the foot every step of the way, to the point that he had to pay for the final sword fight out of his own pocket.

    🤓 Another Fun Fact: This movie’s box office failure lead to the creation of CYBORG with JCVD which repurposed costumes and sets intended for the MASTERS sequel.

  • @mrbubbles8743
    @mrbubbles8743 Před rokem +5

    The first movie I watched as a kid that I would fast forward the end credits to see the after movie scene of skeletor actually still being alive.

    • @danielwilliamson6180
      @danielwilliamson6180 Před rokem +1

      Here's trivia about the after credits scene: The after credits scene which Skeletor is in the chasm beneath Castle Grayskull was unscripted and it was added in by director Gary Goddard. Gary Goddard instructed BOSS Studios to prepare a tank of pink liquid and Frank Langella in makeup and costume was brought over to the tank of pink liquid. Gary Goddard told Frank Langella what he was to do and that he was to get in it and when the camera started rolling, he was to surface, look back at the camera and say the line "I'll Be Back!". Frank Langella agreed to do it and it was done in 1 take and that take was used in the movie.

    @Grayskull77 Před rokem +1

    This is definitely a guilty pleasure flick for me. I remember being disappointed as a kid when this came out, but it's what we got. I kinda grown to enjoy it for what it is, I'm sure nostalgia is a huge part of it.

  • @danielwilliamson6180
    @danielwilliamson6180 Před rokem +2

    Masters of the Universe is a great movie. Dolph Lundgren was the natural choice for He-Man and Frank Langella was the best thing about the movie and he gave a brilliant performance as Skeletor.

  • @frankthespank
    @frankthespank Před rokem +1

    The guy that plays Courtney Cox’s boyfriend was a main cast member on the TV show “Star Trek: Voyager”, he played the part of “Lieutenant Tom Paris”.
    ……he bangs a half Klingon, half Latina chick on the show too. 🤓

      Thank you, my comment would have been a 80 minute video response. Nothing but Tom Paris love and I'd have dedicated 40 minutes of that love to this fine movie . Sadly my first comment in my scrolling was this one. Perfect Tom Paris love already given. He had a very unusual career and somehow it all started in canons goofy cornball B flick destined for chastisement

We waited for it to hit video and really liked it even though the switch out of earth in place of eternia plot device.

    Awesome... This movie is so nostalgic because it was one of the few action movies I had on video when I was a small kid. I remember I always watched it if I was sick. That was awesome, not having to go to school but watch He-Man instead!
    Didn't know the Pig Boy story. But I always thought that character would make a cool action figure.

I chose a log to stand and take a leak off and realized a damn rattlesnake was right underneath and this kid me and my road dawg met went in on the thing with said log and proceeded to cut it up with my knife, still upset I left the rattle(d'Oh!), Suddenly they ditched us and eventually we fell asleep where I swear I saw a mountain lion cruising directly across from our hill at like 2am.
