Movie Reviews of He-Man and the Masters of the Universe - Season One, Vol. 2
Movie Review: Still Highly Enjoyable Even After All These Years...
Summary: 5 Stars
"He-Man and the Masters of the Universe" debuted when I was 11 years old. I remember practically running home from school each day so as not to miss a single word. I absolutely loved the daily dose of action in Eternia, and then applying ideas gleaned from the show to playing with my action figures.
Even now at 33 years old, I still find these cartoons to be highly enjoyable. They bring back a lot of fond memories, and the morals taught in them still hold true today. They've held up over time and can be enjoyed by today's children too.
This collection of the second half of the first season contains one of my favorite episodes, "The House of Shokoti". It was the series' only two-parter that I can recall. Ram Man's continual butchering of Shokoti's name, with her finally shouting at him "Shokoti, you fool!" was priceless. The episode also contained a character simply referred to as "Mask" who never saw a plastic rendition, much to my chagrin. He perished at the end of the first half though, so that is probably why. He was still an awesome foe who would have been a welcome addition to my figure lineup.
Among the special features contained in this box set, "Commercial Spots" is mentioned. I can only hope that means the little blurbs before and after the commercial breaks featuring Orko. Remember those? There were at least four of them that I can recall. Orko's head bursting through an orange field saying He-Man would be right back, then a sad-eyed Orko repairing the hole he had made with tape. Also, Orko rapidly whipping off-screen so fast he lost his hat and cloak, then his bare arms reaching back on-screen to grab them. Plus, Orko spinning in from the distance like a tornado, saying his message, then spinning back off into the distance in the same tornado-like fashion. One other one was Orko working his magic with the little sparkles. While I'm glad that they are not included in each episode on the DVD's, I still was hoping for the opportunity to give them another look in a supplemental section. Hopefully they ARE contained here as the item referred to as "Commercial Spots". I don't know for sure.
With all the episodes this set contains, as well as the wealth of bonus materials, this would be a great buy for anyone wanting something exciting and entertaining for their children to watch, or for a child of the 80's like me who enjoys re-living a piece of his or her childhood.
