He-Man returns for the first live-action outing since 1987, and the numbers aren't kind. Sravan and Tarun dig into Travis Knight's Masters of the Universe — the cast, the box office shortfall against its $425M break-even mark, and where it lands next to this year's other comic-book adaptations. They head into spoiler territory partway through the conversation, so listen with that in mind.
