--> '''Critic''': So He-Man saves the day, the sorceress is rescued and Julie gets sent back home. But wait! There's an added bonus. They sent her back a year before her parents died and before nightgowns looked less like the clothing from ''Little House on the Prairie''. So now she can tell her parents not to go on that plane that would ultimately lead them to their doom. So just to reiterate kids, if your parents die by some sort of horrific circumstance, all you have to do is look for a parallel dimension that has big hunky beef men who can take you back in time and change the whole thing! That way you never have to come to grips with death or the harshness of reality. WHAT A LOAD! Is that what you wanna teach your kids, that if family or loved ones die, there's always a chance you can bring them back from the dead? [[RunningGag That's like saying He-Man is straight!]]

* SlowMotionFall: The Critic considers Skeletor's DisneyDeath one of the slowest falls in movie history, and wouldn't be surprised if he was ''still'' falling, even in the epilogue.

--> '''Critic''': And that's not to say I have anything against homosexuality. It's just...there's gotta be something out there, some kind of alternative hero that's gay... but at least gives us something appealing to look at. (''WesternAnimation/SheRaPrincessOfPower'' title appears) You know what? I'll take that over ''this'' shit anyday!

--> '''Critic''': So let me get this straight. He-Man, the Master of the Universe, is going to use all his intergalactic weaponry, and medieval-style fighting moves... in the suburbs of New Jersey?... This is gonna suck, isn't it?
