Seems like the target audience skews a bit younger than the other He-Man cartoons, based on the art style.

I hope this is not another Teen Titans Go.

Hopefully not, though I think they would be drawn even goofier and sillier if they were going that route.

What is with this autist-animation trend? That awful Ninja Turtles Cartoon, then that weird Thundercats show, now this?

It's the only logical step, i mean no one cares about MOTU, only kids who grew up with it, it's never inspired a different generation. The 90s extreme sequel failed, the 2000s more mature remake failed, the 2020s kid-friendly reboot failed, the spiritual sequel for adults failed.
They've tried different audiences and have never captured an audience again. They're now trying with a very young kids to see if perhaps they like it but they probably won't. The new movie just goes to show only die hard he-man fans care about the product and there aren't many left. |

When people look back on the last ten years, I hope they appreciate the sheer amount of tries Mattel have attempted to make MOTU happen again. We've seen the biggest consistent content roll-out since the 1980s. This is a far cry from the drops in the 90s and 2000s that they all just gave up on after they failed to launch.

Forced to agree with that. Mattel has really gotten behind MOTU for at least the last 7 or so years.

Do kids even watch shows like this? Like imagine a kid born in say the year 2020, they'd be 5 years old now which would be the target audience for this, would they even watch this? Or would their parents even know to put this on for them?
I don't think kids watch cartoons out of the blue anymore. |
