Masters of the Universe Extravaganza!

[@cornjobb]

unless these are unseen photos from the last met gala in nyc, this movie needs to be made immediately.

[@ChapMeifan]

This. This is MOTU. This is exactly the stuff I used to imagine when I was a kid playing with my MOTU figures and playsets. The creepy villains and the colorful heroes. You could tell people that was an actual 80's TV show and no one would question it. Well done!

[@ChapMeifan]

ouch. not nice@BullShot-to3oz

[@knuthamsun6106]

it looks early 70s

[@christopherlussier4383]

Now THIS is how the He Man the movie should have been like. Sorry Dolph.

[@jairoavila9018]

Jamás ,dolph como he Man lucia mejor que este que de verdad se ve ridículo

[@adinocc2042]

So good! When I was a kid in the 80's, I would've killed for a MOTU movie that looked like this! Keep up the good work!

[@matthewlenard8346]

Another fantastic grouping of wondrous possibilities. My favorite image from this set was the Golden Skeletor Mask with the Blond 70s Rockstar Hairdo.

[@diosoth]

The costume designs are all over the place, but the backgrounds look like scenes from the cartoon. The multiple skull-faced entities match perfectly with the book that came with the initial action figures where Skeletor was a "one of many" skull-headed demon that had come to Eternia, looking for a way to bring more of his people through(the whole Keldor thing came much later). Cringer/Battle Cat is here. I could see a lot of the random characters as being toys in the line as new additions. It looks more MOTU than the actual movie we got

[@GetgreeD]

This! I always wondered, what was beyond that Portal where Skeletor slipped through... was it kinda crazy Sorcerer-Race, that sacrificed their Skin in trade for Magic? We will never know :( This AI Art is heavy inspiring!

[@Stand_By_For_Mind_Control]

2 things I love here. That Man-A-Arms at :25 who looks like a young Cheech Marin, and the fact that the Skeletor at 3:33 you can see has the black makeup on his eyes under all that just like Frank Langella did in the movie lol.

[@thisisnotachannel]

Damn. This is fucking awesome... and it really makes me miss my old action figure collection. I had a bunch, like TMNT, Ghostbusters, Go-Bots, Trans-Formers, and Star Trek TNG (though that was a little later)... but I had the complete Masters of the Universe set. He-Man was by far my favorite back in the mid 80's. They were all lost in a basement flood in the mid 90's. R.I.P. childhood collection... I can only ever HOPE to complete it again before I die. Anyway... this is what I always wanted the Masters of the Universe movie to be! Once again, well done!

[@StolenEyesX]

Watching this, and I’m thinking, “They’re all speaking Italian.” Though Sybil Danning would have to be dubbed, of course. Fantastic visuals once again, BFE. 👍

[@SewerTapes]

I absolutely cannot wait until the tech is sufficient to create entire movies by describing them to my computer in excruciating detail.

[@SewerTapes]

Everything about this is wonderful.

[@aikisteven0616]

Strong 'Bad Italian Conan Rip-Off Movie' vibes on this - I'm pretty sure a Sybil Danning-inspired model showed up more than once... Lucio Fulci gives you a full five "Momma Mia!"s rating!!

[@TedSlautterback]

Armored D cups are kinda my thing.❤

[@neilcook4686]

[@ToolShopGuy]

Ive never seen anything capture the essence of a toy line like this does. It's like how I imagined when I was playing with them as a kid. I would love to see a Ghostbusters toys video in this style

[@bannedfromearth9819]

Yes! Ghostbusters would be amazing, I was thinking the same thing!

[@HeartGrinder7]

Deal LORD!!! The fever dream warping of plastic toys into distorted and detailed monstrosities, with that slight touch of incomprehensible technology… it’s mesmerizing!!! It’s GLORIOUS!!! And that HAIR!!!!!!

Excellent work as always, Sir - a good mix of genuinely disturbing imagery, 1970s "Roger-Corman-Adult-Conan-Film" and things that could easily have been in the range of toys :) Nice one

[@scod9746]

Masterful programming! I would love to hear you talk about the creativity that goes into your videos and music. The details in the photo-surrealism are amazing.

[@RocketBlastPodcast]

I’d be SO down for about a $25-30Mil, 80s inspired, ingenious low-budget Masters of the Universe, omg

[@ar235cinema]

The reasons for the box office failure of Masters of the Universe Extravaganza are numerous and varied; critics and audiences cited its oppressive, humorless tone and stayed away in droves. You can see it in the production design and wardrobe. A bloodless PG-13 that was too dark for children. An adventureless scifi adventure film that didn't know what it wanted to be. Even Batman and Robin had a sense of humor

[@paulhoff2206]

This is what the floor of a playroom looked like when you add in all the knock offs!!

[@zebedie2]

I'm getting serious Barbarella vibes from some of the images Skeletor: so beast man my greates plan yet, I've spiked He-Man's sugared wheaties with LSD hahahahahahahaha He-Man: so remember kids today's story moral is ... Jesus Christ I'm tripping balls here, I need to sit down.

[@Thats_him_with_the_daft_hat]

Masters of the universe with Flash Gordon/Batman and Beast Master currents running through it. This is going to seem a bit weird and maybe a little snarky, but I've spent 27 years of my life working in British manufacturing Engineering. I have to say that some of these creations bare quite a resemblance to blokes I've worked alongside. If I could quote the discworld; "No matter how disproportionate or oddshapened a garment, there would someone in Ankmorpok that would fit it." I digress. I meant to say I'm starting to see the everyday in the surreal...or vice a versa.

I NEED to see this movie and I would be collecting the entire line of action figures. 80s Thundercats and Bravestarr movie looks would be amazing. Even deeper cut: a mid-90s movie based on the C.O.P.S. cartoon.

[@bannedfromearth9819]

YES! I would love to do C.O.P.S.! One of my faves as a kid...

[@yuffiekadajdevilmaycry_kis5271]

Dario Argento’s Masters of the Universe.

[@meatrobot7464]

Perhaps my favourite comic is Burne Hogarth's Tarzan. Tarzan's got a slight rockabilly vibe, the jungle is psychedelic AF, and they're just incredible illustrations. I think Banned from Earth could actually do it justice

It's MOTU but as big budget rock opera, as obnoxious as that would be, I'd watch that!

[@jackfriend4u]

watching this am reminded of exactly the kind of costumes and effect companies that were producing these carved polystyrene sets and hard plastic molded chest plates (if not actual chests!)at the time, Youve captured those textures and colors brilliantly once again. could 3D printers adapt things like helmets? this is where the whole concept of a toy being the dominant product and creating a show around that selling point becomes the model. your tv characters have to approximate your toy-design, so they are larger than life while being physically smaller than life! with cartoon released presumably at time of the action figures, the kids would have sense of how to play their toys in accordance with the plots and settings of the cartoon. interactive, as determined by the toy owners imagination. extras not included would become the big difference...new costumes, new armaments. it is basically Barbie for boys, but with even more kitsch!. there would be sand box and playground disputes over who wins and loses, but obviously the real winner is the one with the most Master of the Universe toys. i don't know enough (or any!) of what's typical "Canon" in the MOTU Universe, haven't watched the most recent cartoons of Netflix created by Kevin Smith(?) but without ever being a fan, its style seeps into the mind of anyone who's ever thought what Excaliber By way of Robert E. Howard in "campy space" would look like. and frankly here it looks more gloriously lavish with bad dialogue, badly dubbed, (and they were speaking English in the first place!!)- like others have said a "bad Euro Conan rip off'. watch the Japanese/US coproduction for Toho Films "Latitude Zero". it has that over-decorous production values you see go right through the like Masters of the Universe and become Mighty Morphing Rangers,.

[@ericjohnson9477]

This. Is what we were expecting on the 80s where did you take all those images from ?

[@bannedfromearth9819]

These images were created with midjourney AI. They are generated using text prompts, and commands. I used certain key elements to get the desired effect, e.g., Sid and Marty Krofft Pufnstuf for tone and color. I also used Conan the Barbarian, Giger, and return to Oz in the prompts.

These images were created with Midjourney a service that uses AI to generate images. Prompt and commands are used to produce the desired result.
