Pinball FX3: Williams Pinball - Universal Monsters Pack

Better than any other aspect of the new Masters of the Universe movie, Skeletor’s portrayal finds the right balance between goofy and serious, with the villain winding up as the funniest character while never taking away from his threat level.

2026's Masters of the Universe makes the smart choice to play up the dumb parts of He-Man and not take anything seriously. It’s part Flash Gordon, part Deadpool, and almost officially a parody of itself. These are all good things, by the way.

Hot on the heels of their incredibly cool Pokemon pinball machine, Stern Pinball Inc. already has a new machine queued up for play. Transformers: More Than Meets the Eye is their newest effort, and we got to play a ton of it at IGN Live and at Summer Games Fest. Good news: It’s really fun, and perfectly incorporates the retro ‘80’s version of Transformers, including the Generation 1 cartoon and toys.

Who would have thought it, but the seventh movie in the Despicable Me franchise may be the best one yet, as Minions & Monsters uses those little banana-loving dudes to make an ode to early Hollywood and to the power of cinema and storytelling.

He-Man struggled to find an audience in theaters, as Masters of the Universe pulled in a disappointing $54 million at the box office in its opening weekend.
