The funny thing is that the 80s movie is something akin to whatever nonsense would be generated these days - barely recognizable when compared to the source material beyond names/locations.


Reading the synopsis, this was my first thought.

The original movie (which was by Cannon, when it was literally imploding, mind you) had this exact issue. So they're doubling down? Why?

MOTU is the first tentpole toy/cartoon franchise from the 80s that I can think of that hasn't enjoyed some manner of renaissance. I know that ill-begotten Kevin Smith nonsense from a few years ago on Netflix should count, but it didn't get traction and the lion's share of the attention was negative.

ThunderCats & Silver Hawks were great cartoons, but the toys never really landed. Not like GI Joe, Transformers & Star Wars.
