After the Netflix horror I can't blame anyone for not wanting to give this a chance. In a sane universe this should have been a low to no budget production in the tradition of the original movie.

Apparently this version started life at Netflix before _they_ got cold feet over the budget (cue unrelated look at The Electric State budget) and it ended up at MGM.

But yeah, a 40 year old property whose only revivals the vast majority of fans seem to revile (the Netflix cartoons) seems like a terrible bet to put $170M on.

I've seen enough Masters of the Universe toys in Walmart's clearance section to know this was probably not going to work out. Some of them were weird shit like

The CN reboot was good. But it got killed off along with Johnny Quest reboot. I think those were 20ish years ago?

I probably said this, but outside Edris Elba being cast, I think this looks like a mostly true to the 80’s show adaptation. I think this might pleasantly surprise. Low expectations.

Elba had a fucking red mustache in the trailer?! What.
