#skeletor #heman - บันเทิง
I'll be honest. Not once during my childhood did I wonder how Skeletor was able to see
Or did care about his hearing or smelling.
Sounds weird when you say it out loud but so true 😂
These channels are just sad, this is what mega nerds think about all
Day
Yes, the best looking villain was a cripple.
@@Bismarck.1871 lol
My mum always used the same explanation for anything unexplainable when I was young. It’s magic!
Really, I was always told it's science!😁
She couldn't just say I don't know?
I wanna know how Skeletor maintains his gains! Dude is jacked!
Magic
Chicken, rice, and broccoli
@@chrisgriffith9252lol
He is an eternian.
It's natural for him.

"Is he He Mans Uncle?"
I will always like the demon from another dimension version. He just seems so much more menacing as he literally has zero humanity that way.
For the Keldor crew though? No version has been better nor will it be topped gor a while than that of the CGI Netflix show.
It was written amazingly well and then Ben Diskin is damn near perfect as Keldor to the point i thought his Skeletor wouldn't seem like such a threat!
Thankfully, i was very wrong. We were left with 2 incredible takes on them. I loved that show. Funny when it tried. Serious when it needed to be. All joy all the time.
It is one of two stories. The early drafts had him as a demon but towards the end of the original show they began to allude to the idea of him being He-Man’s uncle but it was never confirmed. Later series have run with the idea though.
We've NEVER seen Skeletor's neck.... Minutes later, shows Skeletor's neck (the version with regular eyes and a mullet) _💀😂_
It's also in LOADS of the old books and mini comics 😂😂
Oh yeah...... and his toy 😂
He sometimes has a neck, he keeps it safely in his closet when not in use.
So your explanation for everything is "magic". Convenient.
yup lol this whole video was just...
Another words Nothing to say
The skeleton that I had in the 80's didn't have quite the same mould as He-Man's. He-Man's arms was even more buffed, with more "defined" biceps. On the other hand, the mould for Skeleton's arms seemed to be the same as many other characters.
He's like Ghost Rider on steroids. 💀
Keldor was trained by Hordak who was trapped in the dark dimension of Despondos. However being trained by Hordak had a stipulation, Keldor had to find a way to help Hordak escape from Despondos. For a long time he ignored Hordak's request and left him stranded there. Till the day he tried to kill his brother Randor and it backfired terribly, leaving Keldor near death. He then ran to the spirit of Hordak to help save him. Hordak remembered Keldor going back on his word, so he said he still would save him however there would be a cost/punishment. So he turned him into Skeletor using his Magics (switching his face with a being of Subternia named Scare-Glow) and hence why can still see he operate like normal because it's a magical curse.
Wow i always wondered who is scare glow.
Also in 2002 series skeletor actively tries to thwart any attempt of hordakz return to eternia
Aaand still left Hordak..😅. falling in love with his new found power..... just had to add that... 😂
NERD ALERT!!!!
Skeletor's appearance is a hold-over from when Mattel was still developing a Conan The Barbarian toyline. In Howard's original descriptions, Thulsa Doom was depicted as having a floating skull for a head. Milius was not able to get this effect for his Conan movie, so they just made him an Atlantean sorcerer of the Cult of Set with long, straight black hair.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thulsa_Doom
I wanna know why he always makes fun of Beast man.
Oh simple Skeletor is jealous of Beastman's silky smooth hair/fur.
Beast man is a furry, it's the only acceptable way to treat him
This was a very enjoyable video. Just to clarify, the original plan for the character was that he was Demo-Man a demon from another dimension with a skull head with a beard we wouldn’t see the return of that beard until the alternate head with the beard until the New Eternia figure last year. When the Filmation cartoon was made, a lot of changes were made to the storyline, including the introduction of He-Man’s secret identity Prince Adam and his father King Randor and the comics included with the toys adopted this new storyline and only then was it mentioned Kind Randor had a long-lost brother named Keldor and Skeletor wanted to keep his past a secret implying they were one and the same.
In the 2002 cartoon Keldor was introduced as a blue skinned Gar, but it was never mentioned that he was King Randor’s brother. It wasn’t until the comics included with the Classics action figures that confirmed Skeletor had once been Keldor the half brother of King Randor and half Gar, also it was revealed that the humans were prejudiced against the blue-skinned Gar! The best way to think of him is a magic being’s skull on a living being’s body, he has all the functions of a man but he’s sustained by magic.
The worst thing to happen to him was the American broadcast standards that demanded he become less scary, and the character became a joke. Skeletor was originally a very dangerous villain, and it was implied he raped the Goddess (an early version of the Sorceress) and fathered Teela! I’m not making this up read The Tale of Teela!
Sure it's not mentioned in the first episode during the Randor battle in the MYP series? I thought they referred to each other as "brother."
@@atlfan48 No I went back and rewatched the first few minutes of the episode where he's still Keldor and he doesn't say anything about them being family, it's only implied they know each other.
@@HappyBirthdayRoboto I liked the change. It made things nice and tidy.
@@atlfan48 Likewise.
@@HappyBirthdayRobotoyeeeeah, im pretty sure my parents wouldn't have let me watch it back then if they knew that. They were probqbly ok with not having to explain that to a preschooler
Overlord , Ainz Ooal Gown
One of my first thoughts to 😂
tbh i didnt make that connection and i watch overlord many times as a binge
Ghost Rider too.
However, Skeletor did it 1st!
If you listen to the earliest Filmation episodes, it definitely sounds like Alan Oppenheimer is purposefully restricing the use of his lips as much as possible when voicing Skeletor.
A live action including an origin story would be so 🔥🔥
Get. Nicolas Cage. NOW.
Skeletors curse was from Grayskulls new protector(he was the protector of Grayskull before he tried stealing its powers and was booted out)and was to render all but his skull invisible to warn of his evil.
I miss the 2002 He-man series.
Have y’all done a video on Luke Cage? He’s my favorite comic character.
The 2002 reboot of He-man & The Masters of the Universe already canonized Skeletor's origin as Prince Keldor, therefore this evil adversary is indeed He-man/Adam's uncle. He wouldn't know of Adora/She-Ra being the niece just yet!!!
I do not remember where I got/saw/heard this, but I had always thought that Skeletor had something done to him that made the flesh and muscles transparent/invisible except for his skull. If this were ever canon, this answers all the questions, how he sees, smells, talks, and such. Does anyone remember this origin and where it was?
I always thought a cool way to explain skeletor's skull and lack of other features would be that his face is horribly disfigured but it is being covered/masked by a hologram of a skull.
Why not simply make him a skilitin zombie with powers?
Please do He Man and Cobra Commander as well as Serpentor
They were done, I think.
"Curse you, He-Man!"
One good thing about the 80’s was we didn’t need everything to have a answer for or for everything to be explained.
How does he taste things or how can he see.
Ridiculous.
I wonder if on the he-man episode they ask why he wears furry underpants.
I always enjoyed the original mini-comics that came with the figures. The original stories were more interesting to me. I'd always hoped there would be an animated movie about them
Those were great little stories
With modern cgi, why not turn comic into real movie? Could rival Star Wars.
Skeletor is like the Joker. He doesnt want to kill He-Man ;he just wants to keep fighting. If He-Man died he wouldn't know what to do with his time.
Voiced by the same person.
@@jamesestrella5911 only the new ones
No, that is not what Skeletor is like at all. He despises He-Man. He has tried to destroy He-Man many times, and is totally without mercy. The only reason he would keep He-Man alive would be to torture him, let him watch his friends suffer, or to witness Skeletor achieving his ultimate victory.
@@Rocket1377 in the Newer one part2 of the movie Evilyn asked him why doesn't he just destroy He-Man. He expressed no interest in it. Of course she was annoyed
@@jamesestrella5911 who's on the "dark side" 😁
I really wish the Netflix version would continue. I liked it
...aaahhhhh, the patchouli-skunk-man. I still remember and recall that action figure action aspect, it's like the folly of smell-0-vision. It sounds like a good idea, but that's only because of who's presenting it...,.
...Thanks for the post, absolutely appreciated.,...
When new information about a series comes out decades later, it's not a confirmation it's an alteration.
Which is not a complaint for me I just hate to see people say it's been confirmed almost 30 years later
Damn, the 80's & 2002 cartoons will always be the titular shows for me.
The original mini comic character designs, that came with the original toy line, were my favorite.
I think Skeletor would be a good dad.
Great video and myself I always enjoyed Skelator's origin from the assa 02 series. I like that he trys to take the thrown by force he is beaten back by King Randor and gets acid splashed on his face. I also like that now near death Skelator asks for help from Hordak and gets it.
Three minutes in, and you're already turning into a broken record, "Skeleton has a skull face despite his buff body." We get it, you don't have to restate the blindingly obvious every 30 seconds. And I'm not seeing why those two things are so mutually exclusive, especially in a fantasy setting such as this.
6:17 Simple:
He forgot he doesn't have eyes, or a nose.
9:50 He also forgot he doesn't have those too
Mark Hamill did a fantastic job as the VA in the Netflix sequel series
This is the original story that you show that Skeletor is the halfbrother of Adam’s father King Randor. But in the 80ties series was not canon. In some radio play cassettes I think this thematic was picked up but I am not sure.
His head has been preserved by magic. He is still able to see, smell, talk (without a visible tongue and lips to form words) and even eat, drink and use potions.
An old friend of mine pointed out that Skeletor is the only character in the original series with a moving jaw when they talked
What about Trap Jaw?
In the Secret of the Sword it was hinted that Skeletor & Hordak were both pupils of magic & were friends at one point when Hordak returned to Eternia & met up with Skeltor he said "You know Skeletor your evil is almost a match for my own, together we'll make lie miserable for those Eterian fools." To which Skeletor replies "Yes, yes just like the old days" it ends with both of them laughing manically they join up to kidnap Adora. Now that we got a story about Skeletor I hope for one about Hordak he's the most mysterious villain on an episode of She-Ra we met the one who taught Hordak how to use magic when he was affected by poison that was secretly given to him by Catra. Who turned out to be in league with Skeletor to get rid of Hordak but She-Ra ends up saving Hordak leaving him to live to fight another day.
Don't know if Skeletor needs food, but he does need air. In the original cartoon series, Skeletor launched a gambit where he starved the planet Eternia of oxygen to weaken He-man and the Masters, using a canister of compressed air to keep himself okay.
The New Adventures of He-man later toys with that idea as both Skeletor and He-man are shown being perfectly okay in OUTER SPACE without a suit, thanks to their respective magics.
Thanks for making another Masters of the universe video hopefully you'll make more I would love to see one of two bad or scareglow
This was a fun video!
I think these are questions that doesn't need explanation. Death is often illustrated as a spirit whose face is sheer darkness, yet it can see and take orders.
A warrior doesn’t need a head just a good strong body- Megatron😉
He sees with his heart.
Magic answers everything!!!!!!
The only comic I ever read with He Man was in DC Comics Presents when Superman goes to Eternia.
The art in that Skeletor comic is surprisingly beautiful and unique for a character from such a kitschy IP
All that matters is that I am able to see He-Man actin’ a FOOL!
The answer is magic.
I guess him wearing a skeleton mask was just to easy an explanation.
“The Dark Side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural.”
"we've never seen skeletor's neck"... but we see his neck throughout the entire video 🤣🤣
I always look at him from a Dungeons & Dragons formula.
A lich or man demon
Skeletor is like Marvel's villain Red Skull
Where can we find the anatomy of Skeletor used as the thumbnail for your video?
I love Skeletor
I said “Hey, a-what’s going on?”
12:32 aaw man. not even with Evil-Lyn
Hamlet with muscles.
Magic. That's the answer
Our ability to smell comes from the olfactory bulb, which is actually located inside the skull 😁
When you play Diablo 4, skeleton enemies also bleed, so you can kill them. (If it bleeds, we can kill it!)
Cartoon logic!😄
What happened to him is magic.
Has me wandering if the transformation/curse changed how Skeletor lived, he sees through the curse for example
Skeletor got magic that’s why he can still see Or he got sight and smell when he was turned to skeletor
fun fact, He-man figures came first as they were going to be for Connan the Barbarian but didnt they they would sell so made the cartoon to sell the toys. ya ya I know "childhood ruined" BUT I had them as a kid so I find it interesting. Battle damage figures👍👍
it is a floating skull it is a magical spell to hide his face and head do to the damage his head and neck are still there but the spell hordack places aopn him gave skelator the opset power of heman . as heman is brave and all that skelator is the polor opaset .
That story about the 2 Brothers being in line for the throne and 1 brother being jealous of the other brother. It sounds a bit like Thor and Loki😂😂
🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯🤟🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼
I stiil got the Skeletor from Mattel here on the shelf .... its missing his armour tho
Yeah they were all muscular and buffed Accept for ram man
Who does your narraration?
I always presumed that Skelitor uses magic to compensate for his senses.
Skeletor is not He-mans uncle And skeletor does have a neck because the 1980's vintage figures (which I have ) skeletor does have a neck because the toys came out before the cartoon.
Brook can see and he openly recognizes that he has no eyes. They can see because they have magical orbital bones, duh.
i need the source of the mini Skeletor episode Pleas
he sees hears smells through magic, next.
I had skeletor while my brother had heman
See anything made up after the original show can't be the origin story. They use artistic license when they do a rehash. Just like Star wars or GI Joe, Heman was iconic. Unless you are sitting in the room with one of the original writers, you are just going to scuf it up. It's no longer theirs. So you can't say this is the lore with some japanese release no one has heard of.
In master universe revelation when he French kiss Evelyn it shows that Skeletor does have a tongue but still without lips speech would be hard
They're fictional cartoon/comicbook characters....They dont need actual logic or reasoning for such questions. Skeletor can see without eyes, turn his skull without a neck, smell a fart without a nose and evil lyn gave him blue balls so bad it spread to the rest of his body...so what?! How does hordak transform into rocket?? We cant enjoy these characters unless we break down the science and physics of it all?? As kids we never asked those questions until teenagers but still just rocked with it anyways.
Não tem isso em português 😢😢
I love how you jump all over the place to different versions yet try to portray Skeletor's past as having a solid continuity. Does Skeletor have a neck? Yes and no. It's never been shown but it has been shown. What are you even saying?
I can't blame Keldor for being furious at being passed over for being King.
Keldor was King Miro 1st Born Son, not Randor. Sounds like Bigotry/Discrimination to me.
How does he pronounce anything with the letter P?
So, your conclusion in 2023: Magic
Me in 1983: Magic ( I was NINE)
Sometimes...you dont _need_ to overthink things, and just use the power of...(say it with me..)
_IMAGINATION_
Hmm..All powerful, magic spewing warlock/sorcerer. Maybe it's magic since he's casting spells constantly? 🤔 Again, I was 9 in '83.
Day 9 of asking for anatomy explored yujiro hanma
yes please
i think someone else made a video on that
Is Skeletor as strong as The Incredible Hulk?💪💀💪🤢
it's all various quality degrees of fan fiction.
3:17
Hate to be pedantic, but he is not half human. He's half Eternian and half Gar.
Adam is half Eternian and half human.
His mother is from Earth. Eternians are humanoid, they are however not human.
Randor is Eternian.
Alan Oppenheimer the OG Skeletor
It always bugged me that he is adams uncle. I had a argument with someone who claims that was the way from the begining but i dont ever remember it that way until recently
It would of been cool of a decendents of heman & skeletor where hemans son is a asshole & skeletor's son is the protagonist😊
If you're wondering how he eats and breathes, and other science facts....
His face being taken away doesn't mean he doesn't have eyes or working nose.
Skeletor and *SHADOW WEAVER* were supposed to have Childs!??
WTF!! 👀😶
Glad I never got to see that hideous He-Man cartoon.
The comments below do a better job explaining the different Skeletor origins than this video.
Skeletor face is invisible and his skull can be seem
Skeletor Anatomy only looks undead .. ?
