Gigantic critical and commercial success.


Rottontomatoes 94%

Metacritic 70%

And the first season isn’t even done yet with He-Man about to take centre stage.

reply

RT Fan reviews 30%

IMDB 4.7

Blasted so bad Smith cut the chat on his livestream yesterday 10k dislikes to 2.9k likes

Oh yeah what a success LOL

reply

Most of those ratings are dishonest 1/10s from butthurt fanboys.

reply

And most of those high score are from corporate critics and the Tumblr alphabet brigade

So fans are not allowed to leave a negative review?

Are you only allowed to leave positive reviews?

Why do you think the negative reviews exist because the show took a giant dump on the original show and fans. You do relise if the show was good the fandom would have bought every toy released and gave it praise. They don't setout to dislike something but if it is bad then they will say so. I saw the trailer and was hyped for it and then after watching it Kevin Smith can suck a big one, it is garbage beyond belief. Every male character either sidelined, killed or emasculated to prop up the female characters in a show targetted towards boys.

unfortunately as prooven by your statement and many like it if you dislike something then you are some king of neckbeard or any other insult. You are just not allowed to dislike something anymore without having insults thrown at you.

The reviews I have seen from fans are general pointing out what is wrong with the show and the lies from Smith. What is wrong with that, that is what a review is. Remember critics are NOT fans, they are reviewing something due to being paid.

reply

Fans are allowed to leave negative ratings/reviews of course. I was talking about some fans who didn’t watch the show and rated it 1/10 just because of what they heard about it and some fans who did watch it or some of it and gave it the most negative rating possible just because something in the show upset them and they aren’t thinking critically (not sure if that’s the right word).

reply

was talking about some fans who didn’t watch the show

Have you asked each and everyone of them, i'm gonna say no. So what is that statment based on, your own bias maybe.

watch it or some of it and gave it the most negative rating possible just because something in the show upset them

That is usually how reviews work. I'm not gonna watch something and see something i dislike and then be positive. No. This show is garbage and doesn't deserve praise. When someone like Grace Randolph who is all for diversity says it is bad and that their is not a single postive male character in it then you know you have lost the fans. I'll keep repeating this because it needs to. Every single male character is either killed, sidelined or emasculated to prop up the female characters you would never see that in a female show, never, literally never.

This will play out the same as ghostbusters and Star Wars. The media will side with Smith and anyone who disliek this show no matter the reason will be called sexist and some ism.

The viewing numbers for part 2 will be shockingly low because Smith has burnt through all his goodwill and is now personally attacking fans for not liking it. His tirade in the live Q+A will make certain this is remembered as a failure.

reply

There’s a difference between being negative and having a knee-jerk reaction and calling the thing the worst thing ever made.

reply

Anyone can have any reaction they so deem.

They may think it is the worst thing ever made. You are not one to say anything against it.

That is the great thing about having an opinion. It cannot be wrong

reply

I’d rather trust the pro’s than angry 80’s kidult nerds who haven’t even seen the whole series yet.

reply

Mattel rather the fans that buy toys be happy

reply

Surely thirty-forty year old’s won’t be buying new toys.

So the young kids will buy whatever character is on the screen if they like it enough. If they aren’t playing Fortnite.

reply

Surely thirty-forty year old’s won’t be buying new toys

How can anyone take you seriously with statements like that. You do realise collectibles and toys are aimed at the generation form the 80's that are now grown adults. Kids today don't care about this stuff.

So the young kids will buy whatever character is on the screen if they like it enough

No they won't. Like all remakes of 80's TV/Movies this is aimed solely at the adults who were kids then. Kids today don't even know this show exists let alone be watching it. This was made for fans of the original series, hence the negativity due to the fact that it is garbage.

reply

Well it’s not garbage, have you not seen the reviews?

And the show isn’t even done yet.

reply

I have watched each episode and it is garbage.

I don't care what paid critics think. The show is garbage and fans have spoken and agree. The live Q+A which I also watched was a disaster and cut short because the fandom made it known what they think of it.

It doesn't matter that it was part one because no one will be back for part two.

reply

100% this

reply

If I watch a show I don't need a reviewer to tell me how good or garbage is.

And this one IS garbage ...

reply

You’ve only seen half can’t believe you’ve quit before the end.

reply

Don't need to eat the whole can of garbage to know that it's garbage ...

Btw, judging by how eager are you to defend a show that you have no stake in ... or do you have?

We do know that big companies pay shills to praise their bad products, wouldn't be surprised if that happens here as well. I hope they pay good ...

reply

No chance i just can’t believe the difference between the critics and audience reviews and the fact that it’s only part way through. I am going to wait till the end to see what reviews say before watching.

reply

So you haven't even watched it? STFU then

reply

You should STFU too you haven’t watched it all either.

reply

Watched all 5 eps you've seen 0

reply

so you didn't even watch it???

BUahahahaha, wtf?

reply

I know right and in here shilling hard

reply

I’m waiting to marathon the whole thing.

You’ve only seen half of it and hate it?

Buhaha..etc

reply

My man, in order to understand how bad food tastes you DON'T need to eat the whole meal. A bite is enough.

You are the one who argue that the food is excellent without even taking a bite ...

Can you see the difference or are you indeed dense?

reply

LOL he's a confirmed shill that's the only explanation that makes sense

reply

Nah you just like weird conspiracy theories.

reply

Sure guy who hasn't watched it but is in here shilling hard

reply

Not even sure what shilling is. Must be a made up word by angry fans.

reply

LOL of course it must be. God damn you're dumb

reply

You must be a teenybopper abbreviating laugh out loud how embarrassing.

reply

Not as embarrassing as you shilling (real word look it up dummy) for a show you haven't seen

reply

Not as embarrassing as you being mad at a show you’ve only seen half of.

reply

At least I have an informed opinion of those 5 eps. Can you say that?

reply

There’s no objectivity to your opinion.

reply

There's plenty. Just like there's plenty of terrible writing in these 5 episodes and they've been discussed in great detail here by many posters

reply

I don’t even care for the show it’s just funny seeing you lot get mad at a well received show that you haven’t seen the end of. Maybe you are the dense one?

reply

Well received LOL the YouTube downvotes and RT fans score disagree with you there

reply

Butthurt fanboys and their armies of socks.

reply

LOL Stahp you all are killing me with all this comedy 😂😂😅

reply

It’s even gone up 1% on Rottontomatoes, now sitting at a healthy 95%.

The original one was absolutely slated on there too.

reply

95% from 38 woke critics LOL wow big deal

reply

There you are with the conspiracy theories and the laugh out louds again.

reply

Says it right on RT's website.. Not surprise you call facts a CoNsPiRaCy ThEoRy

LOL

reply

Have you not seen the reviews?

RT - 30% audience score

YouTube - 10k dislikes to 2.9k likes

reply

The RT audience score and IMDb rating are so low because of people like you……… which is why it’s a little hard to take seriously. 🙂

reply

You mean people who grew up watching and hate this version? Yeah there's lots of us

reply

People like us that didn't enjoy the show? Hmmmm, you're damn right :P

reply

Pros LOL you mean corporate hacks that push the narrative and not real fans

reply

Maybe they want new fans?

reply

That's fine. Then don't say you're making this show for fans of the 80s show and don't lead them on with bullshit lies

reply

Not sure how he has lied since the show is only half way through. I’ll agree if the main man is not in the second half.

reply

Plenty of threads posted showing it. Hell just Google Kevin Smith lied and you'll get your answer

reply

We haven’t seen the end, so god knows how they know he lied.

reply

He's already lied. Are you purposefully being dense smooth brain?

reply

I think you lost the argument when you got offensive.

reply

You lost the argument chasing your tail like a brain dented puppy

reply

You have nothing to add other than insults. Pretty much sums up the maturity level of the angry ‘fans’ of He-Man.

I’m glad the grown ups liked it.

reply

You have nothing to add but "HoW'd He LiE" when its been pointed out to you many times. Run along puppy

reply

Not sure why you used that weird way of mixing upper case and lower case letters Jeff Anderson.

reply

I'm sure you didn't GaLaXy BrAiN

reply

Randal Graves only has one L.

reply

The extra one is for you LOSER. Take your L and ice up son

reply

Brodie Bruce is miles cooler than you no wonder you are furious.

reply

HeRr DuRr go sniff some more glue

reply

I KEEP TELLING HIM THAT.

reply

so make new shows????

Why bother making a remake/reboot/whatever if your plan is to piss off the old fans??

reply

certified fresh

https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/ghostbusters_2016

https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/captain_marvel

reply

LOL now do Last Jedi and Rise of Skywalker

reply

Great film. Probably better than the new kiddie hero Afterlife one.

reply

Women bad.

reply

Your whiteknight simping isn't going to get you laid

reply

I always find this logic astounding that you and the mdeia truely believe that men somehow dislike woman. It is beyond laughable.

reply

There are plenty of men who don’t like these horrible women who refuse to touch them.

reply

Also if they don’t want to see them leading movies/shows they must not think very highly of them.

reply

Who doesn't want to see woman leading movies/shows?

Disliking a female character on screen does not mean you hate woman, does not make you a misogynistic, does not make you sexist. The issue is you and the MSM can't see the difference.

All it means is you dislike the show or character, that is it, it really is that simple.



reply

Plenty of men complain when they find out a movie/show is gonna be lead by a woman/women. That’s a fact.

reply

Are you being stupid on purpose?
People complain only of gender swapping.
MOTU, like Ghostbusters, was written with guys as protagonists.
If you replace them, they complain.

Nobody complains of original female stories.

reply

OH...THEY LIKE WOMEN...WOMEN WHO "KNOW THEIR ROLE".

reply

Tell us how much you like women, start with your wife

reply

I LOVE WOMEN...I ALSO LOVE MY WIFE...SHE JUST HAS ISSUES...AS I SAID SHE WOULD BE THE FIRST ONE TO SAY SHE SUCKS MOST OF THE TIME...SHE IS AWARE...IT ISN'T ALL HER FAULT EITHER...HER CHILDHOOD AND YOUNGER YEARS WERE PRETTY ROUGH....THAT SAID...I HAVE NEVER SAID ANYTHING BUT POSITIVE COMMENTS REGARDING WOMEN...I LOVE WOMEN...AND NOT JUST ON ALL FOURS MAKING ME A SANDWICH EITHER.

reply

The 2003 series was great. i m not shocked this was trash. Anytime we get something from 2010 or later its trash. Look at the modern games and Lara Croft. The last 3 star wars movies with Horsegirl. Captain Marvel too(I miss her ms marvel days). Birds of prey. Feminism is a plague. Never really been a big fan of Smith hes like Seth Rogen before Seth Rogen existed. I just stick to classic shows, movies, games and comics

reply

Well you’ve got to look elsewhere and not at Superhero stuff. The majority of the great films are not Superhero mainstream box-office ones.

reply

Its not even about superhero movies. Most are trash. Marriage Story, Uncut gems etc. There is nothing to watch. I want escapism and variety which has been dead for years
John Wick i have enjoyed

reply

You haven’t looked far outside of Netflix.

John Wick has a comic book now.

reply

Netflix is trash and has it on a regular basis. I stick to tubi.

Eveything has a comic even Star Trek and lots of horror movies whether it's good is another story

reply

Is Tubi pretty good? How much is it?

reply

It's free. You have to make an account to save where you are but its free. Tubi is a breathe of freash air

reply

EXCEPT 90% OF THE CONTENT ON TUBI IS MEDIOCRE AT BEST.

reply

They Got Jem, Scooby Doo, Xena, Andromeda, Steven Seagal, Van Damme Flicks.
This month had candyman and final destination 5. Stick around you will find many movies worth your while

I d argue Netflix has the worse content of all streaming services. A bunch of crappy sequels. Most of Their own orginal movies are terrible. If they have a good show they cancel it

reply

I WOULD ARGUE IT IS ALL CRAP...I OWN ALL THOSE PROGRAMS YOU MENTIONS ON DISC AS WELL AS THOUSANDS MORE...ALL STREAMING IS GARBAGE.

reply

ME KOWALSKI OWN SO MUCH DISK.... ME BIG COOL YOU NOT.. ME TYPE LIKE TARD CAUSE ME HUFF PAINT AND ME OWN FARTS....ME AM GRATE

reply

LOL.👍🏾

reply

Yeah but the ‘critics’ are woke dogmatists and paid shills, the audience score tells the real story.

I noticed that in Kevin Smith’s damage control video he tries to make out that ‘it’s not over’ but is cagey about what comes next - most likely because he knows it’s only going to double down on all the woke aspects that fans rightly hate.

He also doesn’t mention ‘woke’ and straw-mans the criticisms as being all about He-Man dying. No dude, the fans have been very clear - they hate your MOTU because:

1) It’s woke as fuck.

2) You lied.

It pains me to say this because I’m a long time Smith fan, but he truly sold out here and revealed some awful qualities about himself. He’s always been able to hold on to his loyal fan base, but I can see this really cutting into that. Maybe he’s ready to let them go and suck corporate woke dick for the rest of his career 🤷🏻‍♂️




reply

"WOKE" ISN'T REAL TO ANYONE EXCEPT YOU ANGRY INTERNET GUYS.🙄

reply

Nice try Wokey 👍🏻

reply

LMAO...OKAY...ENJOY YOUR RIDICULOUSNESS.

reply

Yep, thats why you are called Wokey in RL!

reply

LMAO...YOU GUYS ARE REALLY SAD.

reply

Come on man. We all know every single "professional" critic is just a bought and paid for studio schill. Not even a single one is independent and offering their own opinions

reply

If that was true why do huge films get awful scores? Cats? Rise of Skywalker? Doolittle? Etc etc.

Its just a conspiracy you all use when it doesn’t go your way.

reply

Or, the exception that proves the rule. Even schills aren't going to pimp something they know is going to absolute dogshit. They have to maintain at least some appearance of credibility

reply

Yep, 28% at the RT reviews (beside the access media) is indeed a huge success, soy boy. Does soy damage your mathematic skill?

reply

You obviously are the soy boy whatever that means caring about a cartoon He-Man.

As for your reading comprehension, awful since you missed the great Metacritic scores.

reply

Metacritic USER Score 2.1 Generally UNFAVORABLE.
