“A hundred million years ago, I thought He-Man was cool, but She-Ra was even cooler. I donu0026#39;t even know why I thought so.. maybe because I also dug Wonder Woman, The Bionic Woman, and Batgirl.. but I digress. When the movie came out, pre-multiplex, kids of all ages rejoiced when Adora u0026#39;held aloft her magic sword and said, u0026quot;For The Honor of Greyskull!u0026quot; Yeah, that was cool. She-Ra had a more upbeat theme than her brother, He-Man, and quite honestly, her special effects were better too. I coulda done with Cowl, the owl, and u0026quot;Swift Windu0026quot;, the lame-ass talking horse, but the rest of it was decent. Bo had a rockinu0026#39; bod, Castaspella (donu0026#39;t you just love the name?!) could kick Shadow Weaveru0026#39;s butt, and Queen Angella, with her wannabe English accent, defended Castle Bright Moon till the cows came home. Mixing the original He-Man series with She-Ra was done effectively, meaning it was a buyable story-line… and when all was said and done, and Adora, nay She-Ra, realized her true identity, she decided to stay and u0026quot;defend Etheria against the evil forces of Hordak.u0026quot; Pure cheese, but when youu0026#39;re a kid, who cares?!”
