Wow, what a shit take by Kevin Smith.
We will see who the hardcore fans are, because if you say Oh theres not enough He Man, you dont get it and never understood the show, and there were episodes where he never became He Man.
Guess what Kevin? I thought those ****ing episodes sucked too. Episodes that do not have the main character usually ****ing suck.
Like, why does your project require hardcore fans to the point that they literally won't care about the total absence of the ****ing main character?
Why dont you write a Spider Man story where he's just Peter Parker the whole time? Ill tell you why, because nobody gives a shit about the secret identity. Nobody pays to see Peter Parker, Bruce Wayne, and certainly not Prince ****ing Adam.
The superhero alter ego is the draw, the reason we watch, and if you don't ****ing have it, you ****ed it up.
I watched Masters of the Universe to see He Man doing He Man shit and beating the shit out of Skeletor and his henchmen.
Its not a hard ****ing concept, and somehow it flew straight over his head.
This was a golden opportunity for Smith to showcase his writing chops and make the nearly invincible superhero beating the shit out of the bad guys have some actual depth.
Instead, he completely ****ing removed the challenge of doing that, and went with the weaker, more vulnerable Teela instead. A massive copout. Then if you call it out, youre not a fan and never understood the show?
**** off, Silent Bob.
Smith hasnt swung and missed this badly since Gigli and Jersey Girl.
