I think the First Ones homeworld is Eternia. Adam, Randor and the rest of them are the remains of the First Ones empire, with Greyskull the center of their technology. Hell, it probably existed before they started their Empire, using the technology they found there. Though for some reason it collapsed, and now Eternia is just a post apocalyptic wasteland full of weird mutants and decaying technology. Though I'm not sure if they have permission to use any He-Man stuff though. I'd love to see Skeletor show up and sass Hordak.

ENEMIES EVERYWHERE posted:what canonical straight romances are there? Bow was making some heart-eyes or pretty close at Seahawk when they first met too. I think the show runs on Utena rules - everyone is bi, because that has the most options for plots.

That's a good question, though it's not like it's stopped other franchises like TMNT from saying gently caress it and not bothering trying to prevent confusion. Skeletor actually would be a really good counterpoint to this version of Hordak, since they're almost total opposites. CuwiKhons posted:Speaking of which, do you think Scorpia still has family out there anywhere or is she the last one? I assumed she would have family out in the Crimson Wastes last season but this season it seems more clear that Scorpia's family got decimated and she was only kept alive because she was young enough to be raised as loyal to the Horde. I also assumed we'd meet more of Catra's species on Beast Island but uh, nope. There was a cat girl on Captain Scurvy's pirate crew though. I got the impression her father sold out to the Horde possibly to keep them alive? Though I generally kinda attributed the seeming skeleton crew of the Horde's upper echelons to the same reason all the heads of state are teenagers; the war with the Horde has been brutal to the older generations on both sides, and Angella might be paranoid and cowardly partly because she's the only member of the old Princess Alliance still alive. Funny thing is that people were wondering about Etheria having money, but the world depicted makes a lot of sense that, for most people, the war is pretty far away or abstract- there's a bunch of different independent nations who probably only stopped fighting each other when the Horde showed up, and areas like the Whispering Woods and Crimson Waste that are so hostile and sparsely populated as to be ungovernable. It's a big world with a lot going on and we probably haven't even really seen half of it.

Not surprised, though it seems like this version of Hordak had nothing to do with Adora's kidnapping, that was Light Hope. Put that way though, I can totally imagine Skeletor taking Hordak under his wing and becoming his evil mentor. Would explain a lot if She-Ra and He-Man are both based on the same ancient super-soldier technology. And possibly something about their bloodline makes them compatible with it.

Ghost Leviathan posted:Not surprised, though it seems like this version of Hordak had nothing to do with Adora's kidnapping, that was Light Hope. Yea, so that isn't going to be part of it, but it still doesn't preclude Skeletor and Hordak being partners in some way. And yea, I figure Adora and Adam's bloodline enables them to tap into the power of Greyskull to turn themselves into their alter egos. The Nobility or the pure humans of Eternia have the most First One DNA or something. It's like in Stargate Atlantis where some of the crew had Ancient DNA stronger than others and they could use their tech when no one else could.

I'm mostly familiar with the 2002 Skeletor, mind, though I suppose to go into more detail about what I meant; Skeletor primarily uses magic, while Hordak uses technology; Skeletor is a hands-on leader who can sword-fight He-Man evenly, while Hordak prefers to sit back and when he does fight he uses a long-range weapon; Skeletor tends to dominate his minions and take charge through personality while Hordak gives them relative autonomy and mostly only intervenes when he wants something or when they screw up. Looking at that, I get the feeling it might be a deliberate contrast for this show's version of Hordak.twistedmentat posted:I think so, but could Skeletor make any other kind of pie? Weirdly enough I'm wondering if it's related to how their mother is apparently an astronaut from Earth in at least one version.

Is there actually some reason to believe Skeletor will show up?

# ? Nov 10, 2019 17:27 |

No, but he was the best character from He-Man by a long way, so we still hope he will. He did have a connection to Hordak of some sort too, I forget exactly what.

I think Hordak was Skeletor's mentor? Though I don't know if that'd work for this. Though the crazy option would be that the planet Hordak was invading when he was suddenly sent to Etheria was actually Eternia. (and extra comedy option is that it's Light Hope's fault) Madame Razz is also implied to occasionally remember the 80s series.

This reminds me. In the unlikely event Skeletor does show up, someone should warn the She-Ra fandom that in most continuities he's secretly He-Man's uncle. Y'know, before they do something they might regret.

They really are serious about using their campy sadism exclusively for the benefit of whoever's paying them - they've found a job they love, and they sincerely want to excel at it. That and they're a nice change of pace from all the shapeshifter characters who put little to mo effort into mimicking their target's personality, doing whatever they want and hoping that everyone else has their heads too far up their asses to notice anything fishy.

The only thing that could make me change my mind is if Skeletor gets voiced by Chris McCulloch, because the voice of the 80s Skeletor and THE MIGHTY MONARCH are so eerily similar.

Star Trek TAS has held up surprisingly well with that in mind. Especially since they realised that weird aliens were often actually easier to animate than humans. It's a style that works surprisingly well when used right, either taken seriously or used for comedy- Archer obviously uses a similar style (and also Frisky Dingo and Sealab 2021, which was based on another Filmation cartoon) but also the human characters in Aqua Teen Hunger Force.

The Monarch's voice and mannerisms were probably consciously based on Skeletor, I'd imagine.
