Hi, I'm a longtime listener, firsttime poster. Thanks for the commentary on the film! I don't understand why Paul said in both the prologue and episode that this movie has been unavailable for a long time. It was released on every major home video format: VHS, Betmax, Laserdisc, DVD, and Blu-Ray. The BR was released in 2013 for the 25th anniversary. In previous episodes Paul and company mention buying used DVDs and Blu-Rays, not just streaming/downloading options. I wonder if physical media is now dead to him? I don't have any issues following this story. Eternia and Castle Greyskull are at the center of the universe and is a nexus for its energy. If Skeletor possesses the castle when the moon is at its zenith, he will be able to get that power and become Master of the Universe. It's said that if He-Man and friends use the key and disturb the gravitional tones, Skeletor's key will locate them (the other key.) I take this to mean that Skeletor gets a lock on the key's current position when it was used only. Likewise, Gwildor needs to punch in a lot of keys to open a door back to Eternia; Evil-Lyn only really needs to press any key to signal to Skeletor where she is. According to the director's commentary, Orko and Battlecat would have been impossible to do well since this film was before the era of CG. Gwildor was invented as a subtitute for Orko. I notice many critize the film for Skeletor's robot troops. Actually, Skeletor does use robot troops in the original cartoon!
