This is a continuation thread, the old thread is [split]477133[/split]
Mad Max for sure.
I dont think this movie needs a complex origin story just make it simple like the Mad Max and Terminator films.
He-Man was a barbarian from an Eternian tribe. The planet's inhabitants were dealing with the aftermath of the Great Wars, which devastated the civilizations which once ruled supreme. The wars left behind advanced machinery and weaponry, known only to select people. An early incarnation of the Sorceress of Castle Grayskull gave He-Man some of these weapons, and he set out to defend the secrets of Castle Grayskull from the evil Skeletor.
Make it a simple story of He-Man in an post apocalyptic world getting about having to slay beasts on his quest to destory Skeletor.
So you want to go with a basic bland mini comic and throw out everything that improves and added layers to the story. Bugger off. And where the hell did post apocalyptic come from that's never been a part of motu
You do know the whole backstory and depth between Heman and skeleton and the royal family lineage the racist undertones against skeletor the addition of the snake men and horde etc
they dont need to explain it but there should be some internal logic in the movie universe.
it would be stupid if someone uses a sword instead of a scifi gun or a green tiger instead of a futuristic flying vehicle
you ask this like it didnt bother me in 2003 t:Why does the fellowship walk to Mordor if the giant eagles can just fly them there?
They try to explain it away by saying the eagles would've been corrupted by the ring like all powerful beings, but who knows.
This question again? As a massive Tolkien fan let me tell youWhy does the fellowship walk to Mordor if the giant eagles can just fly them there?

And yes, I'm perfectly aware that this has nothing to do with Masters of the Universe, but I couldn't help myself. To get back on topic, uh... I watched some episodes of the show when I was a kid, and... um... I really liked Skeletor.that there's no real in-story explanation. Tolkien just kind of forgot to address this problem, unless he did it on purpose. In one of his letters he did call the Eagles "a dangerous 'machine'", one that he preferred to use as sparingly as possible. Which to me means that he was probably well aware that the Eagles could have been used to solve a lot of problems, lol.
With that said, taking Frodo to Mount Doom without Gollum would have been an utterly pointless task anyway. It was Gollum who ultimately destroyed the Ring, albeit accidentally. In the books it's made clear that neither Frodo nor anyone else in Middle-Earth (and that includes Gandalf and Aragorn) had the force of will required to drop the Ring into the fire.
