Masters of the Universe (film)/Awesome

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Skeletor's speech when he becomes a god:

Skeletor: People of Eternia! I stand before the Great Eye of the Galaxy, chosen by destiny to receive the powers of Grayskull. This inevitable moment will transpire before your eyes, even as He-Man himself bears witness to it.
Computer voice: The Eye opens.
Skeletor: Now, I, Skeletor, am Master of the Universe!
*Orbs of power orbit Skeletor.*
YES! Yes... I feel it, the power... fills me. Yes, I feel the universe within me! I am... I am a part of the cosmos! Its energy flows... Flows through me! Of what consequence are you now? This planet, these people. They are NOTHING to me! The universe is power! Real, unstoppable POWER! And I am that force! I am that power! KNEEL BEFORE YOUR MASTER!
*He-Man glowers defiantly.*
Fool! You are no longer my EQUAL! I am more than man! MORE THAN LIFE! I... am... a... GOD!
*Skeletor transforms.*
Now...you...will...KNEEEEL!

  • He-Man gets one near the end of the movie. Having freed himself from his bonds, he heads for Skeletor's throne, where the Power Sword is being held. Every time he grabs for it, Skeletor zaps him, until he makes one last grab, pulls it out and, to the sounds of a triumphant soundtrack, shouts I HAVE THE POWER!
    • For the cheesiness and 80s style special effects, the final fight between He-Man and Skeletor is actually pretty damn good. Apparently the power surge turned off all the lights, and the whole thing is lit primarily by their glowing sword and staff, respectively as they go at each other.
    • Especially the ending. Pure awesomeness!
  • So does Detective Lubic have a panic attack after being transported to an alien dimension? Why no... He starts shooting at Skeletor's army!
