I'm absolutley sure that if the movie did not came at the death knell of the franchise back then but had still a strong toyline and cartoon running we would had Gwildor and all the other new ones being included in Filmation and the toyline. Since some comics where still running they already where included there. They would not had the "oh that this movie thing" stigma they still have now. I'm glad they still try to cement them as part of the overarching MOTU cosmos like with including them in the new shows.

The only person who should ever be on earth is Queen Marlena … How difficult is it to start the film with her journey to Eternia (first 3-5 min) then montage her way to Queen and giving birth to twins while Keldor and Randor have their epic battle in the palace (what we don’t see in the first film is Hordak and Shadow Weaver stealing one of the babies - save that for the third film) - Keldor gets his face melted off - cut to - 20 years later .. Prince Adam must journey to Greyskull to find the Sword after Skeletor returns for revenge… how difficult is that?! 🙃

Office job? Yikes. Wouldnt it be better if Adam was a loner-type, prepper, mountain man on earth and not a Clark Kent rip-off?

This! ☝️ 100%

@filmgeek This sounds great!

100% agreed. Not necessarily ideal but the Hook Earth time ratio would be the only way for it not to hurt the film imo

Yeah it really wasn’t the best route story wise … but we’ll see I suppose… there’s a lot about this film that I am liking but the few things that are concerning are extremely concerning…
