"He-Man" Hires a DirectorPosted: January 30th, 2009 by WorstPreviews.com Staff

Warner Bros and producer Joel Silver set "Kung Fu Panda" co-director John Stevenson to make his live-action directing debut on "Masters of the Universe," a re-imagining of the signature Mattel toy line.
He-Man is a brawny prince who transforms into a warrior who becomes the last hope for a magical land called Eternia, which is being ravaged by technology and the evil Skeletor.
The Mattel property became iconic by way of the 1980s cartoon series "He-Man and the Masters of the Universe," and the property was previously turned into a campy flop by in 1987, with Dolph Lundgren as He-Man and "Frost/Nixon" star Frank Langella as the villainous Skeletor.
Stevenson said the first film came to mind when he was asked to consider the job, and the impression wasn't a good one. He changed his mind when he went to Mattel headquarters and was shown into a secret lair that contained the visuals created by the toymaker staff.
"There was this locked bunker that you had to be escorted into," Stevenson said. "It was filled with art, some generated by the Mattel artists, and I looked around, and said, 'I get it.' We started formulating a specific vision for costumes, creatures, architecture, and the creation of a mythology and look for a whole world we'll create."

Again withthe characters that don't translate well to the screen. This is never going to look like much more than some kinda gay scifi porno
