Cookie’s Corner Year 3

Recommended Posts

SWAT Kats 2: The Viper Strikes - A marginal improvement from the first film mainly because it decides to actually have a second act (and upped the animation budget to some degree), but still chooses to forgo any real character development. B-/C+

He-Man II: The Revenge of Skeletor

 

It's disappointing that the movie repeats the mistake the first film made in He-Man himself taking way too long to get in on the action. At least with the first movie you could argue it was an origin story, here instead the first half is dragged out by the villains running around on a fetch quest which Adam and most of Eternia aren't even aware of until they attack them directly near the end of the second act.

 

While there are some cool action scenes once He-Man does get in on the action, the resolution is rather lackluster given the great stakes raising of Skeletor absorbing He-Man's powers for himself. All that buildup and what solves everything is Orka making an intentionally crappy portal and sucking Skeletor through it? Weak.

 

Chris Hemsworth's new character saves this movie mainly because it's Hemsworth doing what he does best.

 

C+

Zoldar: Warrior Beast From Outer Space

 

So it's 85 minutes of Kevin Bacon versus Jason Voorhees. Let's just hope it goes better for Bacon than when he faced Jason's mother.

Spoiler alert: IT DOES! :insane:

 

But that rape joke at the end :gold: (I know @Xillix said it was unintentional but geez)

 

B-/C+

This is a very intentionally bad movie but this seems an odd criticism to me. The villains died, the main hero was rescued from impending doom, the setting was literally completely destroyed, a joke from the beginning paid off... what were you looking for, a funeral for Taylor Lautner?

That Was a Long Time Ago

 

* phone rings *

 

"Hi, just wanted to call in and say this one sucked too. Also Zac Efron beats up Adam Devine in an alleyway. Never thought I'd see that."

 

Okay seriously, you've been gone far too long now. Get back to the office!

 

"Just one second, I need to tell the Pharaoh something. Yo Phaorey, in the words of Marion the Hamster, LET MY PEOPLE GOOOO!"

 

Who's people?

 

"My people!"

 

Is he holding My Peoples hostage? That's an odd thing to do.

 

"Oh shit, his first-born just died. I gotta bail!" * phone hangs up *

Making Egypt jokes through these reviews.

 

You noticeably skipped it in reviewing everything.

 

You need to trash something for revenge in me ripping off your style with The Raven Boys...

 

...Fuck, Moses and co are getting trashed aren’t they.

If his funeral anthem was an infinite loop of this:
