Hell, just about the only thing I've seen him do that hasn't underwhelmed or outright sucked is Dogma (and some of his stand-up acts). And this is the guy we're trusting to do this?

Honestly, what in Kevin Smith's career gives you any confidence in his ability to deliver a half-decent He-Man cartoon?

I mean the odds of finding someone that would give a cartoon series from our childhood the kind of reverential reach around the recent Voltron series got is remote. Kevin Smith is a total nerd and at least he's going to understand the source material (like all 80's kids shows it was a glorified 30 minute toy commercial) let's face it.


Shouldn't be all that hard. Just take somebody who worked on one of the more recent successful Transformers cartoons and use them.

I am willing to give Netflix He-Man a go, since I have been a fan of the franchise since my childhood in the '80s, but it has a steep mountain to climb if it wants to top the '02 reboot (underappreciated, IMO). Same studio as Castlevania, though, and I will take that as a vote in its favor.


A great studio can't necessarily protect against a terrible showrunner.
