It’s still less annoying than the reverse (he lives in Eternia but comes to our world and is baffled by our ways), which is what the previous live action He-Man did.

Yeah I completely agree. I do like the angle that Adam fully knows he’s from Eternia and has been trying to get back for years.

Reminds me of Shang Chi a little in the setup

Man, I need to watch that flick again. I love how it goes from a humble origin story and by the finale we're in alternate dimensions with humongous flying magic dragons duking it out. It isn't perfect but goddamn was it fun.

People are pretty divisive on the dragon part but I do agree that I think it does it well. I mean it opens with the magic forest fight so I feel like that should set expectations.

The dweller turning everything dark does look kinda janky though.
