    He-Man is back, baby .

    Chris Wood really sold the line. I know people hated him as Mon-El, but I hope this role can really redeem him in nerd culture .

    This looks a lot like the 2002 cartoon, which as my gateway to He-Man makes me super happy.

    My gateway was the original series as it aired (I'm old, I know lol) and I LOVED the 2002 reboot. So seeing a merging of the two like this is pretty much perfection to me.

    And while I really liked the latest She-Ra cartoon, I hope they bring her and Hordak into this at some point since that was something we never got to see in the 2002 show.

    Huh, this is a surprise. Even watching this clip a few times seems the redesigns are minimal. Didn't ever catch the 2002 version but in passing but this looks pretty damn faithful in look to the OG. Tela and Lynn seem more covered up, wonder if She-Ra, as in giant blonde She-Ra, shows up at some point.

    Fk! Has it been 40?? I guess so, I'm 45 now. In 2nd grade He-Man ruled the roost as it were, until Transformers took over. Looks pretty cool.
    Beefing up the old home security, huh?
    You bet yer ass.

    Anyone else find the nipples super distracting? I like muscular men as much as the next guy but the placement of those nipples just feels really weird to me

    So excited for this, my gateway was the OG they reran it in the 90's, but I also liked the new adventures of He-Man(who wore a blue pants and had a mullet.). A few years ago I watched the 2002 series online, and it was really cool. I see they're following DC comics and replacing the red cross with a H.

    Dolph Lundgren and Frank Langella probably wish they were part of this

    Is this essentially a reboot? Looks really slick so far.

    Neverminded, found the answer, a sequel to the 80s cartoon. Nice. Hell if I can remember how that ended though so I hope we get a quick recap in episode 1.

    Hmmm. If they did it would have been short-term work, I imagine.

    Kevin Smith wasn't joking when he said he was going for B:TAS with this show.

    Netflix Animation has been amazing lately (Voltron, She-Ra, Kipo, Dragon Prince, Spirit, Hilda, The Hollow, Camp Cretaceous, Over The Moon as well as the more "adult" fare with CastleVania, Ultraman, Pacific Rim, Big Mouth, Bo Jock, Love/Death/Robots, Transformers, etc.), so I will give this a go!

    So I have watched the trailer multiple times.

    Posted on FB and a couple buddies of mine, one black, one white, decried the series saying it was going to be 'woke AF' (the white one said that, the black one said 'I can see the subliminals')

    I'm like...where? Now I know putting stuff down as 'woke' is the negativity du jour of the internet and social media right now whenever people feel threatened by attempts at equal representation and such, but I'm like...it's a trailer...where is the wokeness? He-Man is still an over the top beefy blond white guy.

    I know the show synopsis starts with Teela having to reassemble the MOTU...are they saying that because a female is kicking off the narrative? Which we don't even know what that is, we have litterally just see 3 minutes of epic visuals over an epic 80s song.

    They are my friends and all but I wanted to reach through the screen and smack em.
