It’s true that I get kinda geeky about seeing my favorite cartoon shows as a kid turned into modern effects movies (hence my viagra like enthusiasm for The Transformers). So it should come as no surprise to anyone that I’m really looking forward to He-Man… no matter how bad it ends up being.
The John Woo version of the film has been in the “works” for a long time now, and there are reports of the project losing momentum. As a matter of fact, some reports are even suggesting that John Woo isn’t really all that interested in the project anymore. That’s a shame if it’s true, since I think he’s do a pretty decent job with it.
However, all is not lost just yet. According to the guys over at MovieHole:
The one thing suggesting that the film is still going ahead though is the report that Mattel are in “active” talks with Lions Rock about the film – indicating that not everyone has lost zeal in the project.
One thing I’ve learned from doing The Moive Blog for over 3 years… it doesn’t matter if the artists say “no” to a movie… if the business people (you know, the ones with the money) say yes, then you can bet your ass it’s going to happen. He-Man will happen.. it’s just a matter of when.
Oh it’s going to be so deliciously bad… and yet… I’ll be there.
