Ep 231: Masters of the Universe (2026)

Dave & Cody bring back 80's kid, Lance Burnett, to review Masters of the Universe, the new live-action He-Man movie 39 years in the making. The three of them split hard on this one. Dave had fun with it, Cody calls it a misfire, and Lance lands somewhere in between. They dig into the camp, the nostalgia, the sword swerve, Jared Leto's hard-to-understand Skeletor, and the thin handling of Prince Adam's missing years on Earth. Dave breaks down the full Mattel Cinematic Universe slate, all 16 projects, including an A24 Barney movie and M. Night Shyamalan directing a Magic 8 Ball series. The Pastor's Corner connects Prince Adam to the Beatitudes. Plus Hot Take Cody on the Supergirl backlash, and a round of the Movie Game.SPOILER WARNING: Full spoilers for Masters of the Universe after the news segment.Movie reviewed: Masters of the Universe (2026) — Directed by Travis Knight.
