“People of Eternia!”
There’s a scene in the original Masters of the Universe movie from Cannon when Skeletor is projected over Eternia to address its citizens. Last night, Skeletor would once again lord over a city sky.
Director Travis Knight truly has the power. Wednesday night over the Los Angeles night skies, 1,600 drones lit up to display the most powerful drone show to promote the upcoming Masters of the Universe. Amazon MGM received the Guinness World Record for this promotional display, which Knight personally accepted. You can see a video of the promotion on the official Instagram account.
