He-Man was 50? no way!

Glasgow-born GERARD BUTLER — star of this year’s epic 300 — is still in the running.

No way...that would SUCK!!

You just cant beat Dolph Lundgren.

So Brad Pitt will be playing the New He-Man? You know the gay one with the pony tail that told kids to pick up broken glass with a paper towel? Not the old school He Man that could pick up MOUNTAINS and drank pints of real ale?

Brad Pitt as if!

I actually watched that Masters Of The Universe film not that long ago....and it drips with just as much cheese as I remember Great film!

But least in the eighties you could get away with cheese, the idea of brad pitt playing He-Man is beyond cheesey.

Its Pure Squeezie cheese!!

I think it's worse than cheese. I categorise films like this:

1- Epic
2- Great
3- Watchable
4- Dull
5- Bad
6- Bad to the point of being quite fun
7- Unwatchable

Brad Pitt as He-Man is heading into "Unwatchable" territory. Hell, unless he bulks up massively he isn't even the right shape The only film I've seen him in where I've been impressed is Fight Club - aside from that, I can't remember seeing him in anything where I thought he did a good job.

And in my opinion, MOTU is a solid 6 on my scale - the acting isn't great, the story is actually another film entirely with the He-Man universe characters shoe-horned in (look at Jack Kirby's "Fourth World" comic book series, then MOTU, then tell me you can't see the similarities!), but it remains fun Though I haven't found many people that agree with me, I must admit....

Legendary Pictures — the team behind Superman Returns — are set to give the Eighties cartoon the 2007 treatment.

*sigh*

It's going to blow chunks of poetic butchery..

Skeletor in Masters of the Universe is absolutely awesome.

As is Gwildor (the dwarf).

I think Brad Pitt was awesome in Troy and think he will do great in He-Man

I wonder if his first reaction when reading the title of the script on his desk was to laugh. Then his agent probably told him the salary...

I thought he was great in Se7en... I'll admit, I can't think of anything else though
