unoriginal: erin's blog

I'm lazy & quite terrible about returning emails and keeping in touch with people. Now people can be nosey and keep an eye on what I'm doing... as long as I keep the blog up to date!

Princess of Power


Hi All
The She-Ra Princess of Power DVD set was released in July, and it's a big deal. When I was little, I was all about He-Man, She-Ra, and the Thundercats, so it's very nice to have She-Ra finally on DVD, as it's the one show I never taped on VHS. I have the Thundercats Movie, I have "the Making of Captain EO" for goodness sake, but no She-Ra. The first 2 Disc set is one 2-hr movie, and 5 "best" episodes that were voted on by the fans. Can't help but notice that every episode also stars He-Man. I had a few more observations.

When He-Man was his weenie alter ego Adam, he really was quite fruity. His voice was high and squeaky and his cat Cringer was worse. Prancing around in voilet tights. Yep.

I also couldn't believe how similar the He-man/She-Ra story was to another I grew up with. Couldn't help but notice that the landscape of He-man's home planet of Etheria bears a striking resemblance to Mos Eisley of Star Wars.



You will never find a more wreched
hive of scum and villanry

Also, He-Man and She-Ra are powerful twins separated at birth; they can "feel" their messages to one another... much like...


The entire series will be hitting DVD in 3 sets.

In a similar vein, the Oxygen Network announced the resuts of their survey: Women prefer tech gadgets to jewelry or shoes. I could have told you that!
