Kevin Smith got panned by fans with Masters of the Universe Revelation
Here is a video of Kevin Smith explaining the Finale of Masters of the Universe Revelation part 1. He is very positive explaining all his decisions for what this series had become. Despite having brutal criticism from fans.
The video have more Dislikes than Likes because fans are unhappy with the marketing and decisions on making this film. Fans of He-man were waiting for a closure. This two part series promise to give them the satisfying ending they waited for decades but Kevin Smith some risky bold moves. The critics loved this series as it got 96% fresh from Rotten tomatoes. On the other hand, The average audience score is 36% because of the controversial decision he did.
I will still give the second half of this series a chance and try to trust to process but I understand where the fans came from. They are watching this because they want a final showdown between He-man and and Skeletor. Fans waited for this for decades. They watched the original as children and they are now adults on their 30s and 40.
He-man have three continuities but all three of them got canceled on TV because of low toy sales. This series can act as close for all versions of He-man but Kevin did something polarizing.
He played with their emotions by Killing He-man and have Teela takeover as main character. Teela also got a makeover on this show that is not appealing to the Audience of He-man. Who knows? Maybe He-man will be resurrected on the second half and takeover as lead character again. He-man fans thought they will get have a better experience than oldschool She-ra fans but at least She-ra remain a lead character on her reboot despite the make under. Kevin Smith played with the emotion of the fans and we will see if the risk he took is worth it once the second half is released.
