    ⚔️ By the Power of Grayskull! | Masters of the Universe (2026) Spoiler Review | We Needed Roads⚔️

    💪 BY THE POWER OF GRAYSKULL! 💀⚔️This week on We Needed Roads, we're heading back to Eternia for our spoiler-filled review of Masters of the Universe!Joining Neil are Marie, Jose, and special guest Clare from the W-Rated Podcast as we ask the important questions: Has He-Man finally got the big-screen adaptation fans have been waiting for? Does Skeletor still have the greatest villain design of all time? And can a film based on a toy line actually deliver?Neil and Jose are of a certain vintage, meaning they grew up with the cartoons, the action figures, and even survived the legendary 1987 movie. Jose, in particular, definitely spent a lot of time playing with Snake Mountain as a child... and we'll leave that sentence exactly as written.Meanwhile, Marie arrives with absolutely no Masters of the Universe lore, no research, and no idea what's going on—but one of her many fictional husbands appears in this film, so she's locked in regardless.And then there's Clare from the W-Rated Podcast, who couldn't confidently tell you the difference between She-Ra and Teela, but did hate-watch Riverdale all the way to the bitter end, making her uniquely qualified to assess Camila Mendes' arrival in Eternia.Join us as we break down the good, the bad, and the downright WTF moments from Masters of the Universe, discuss whether nostalgia helped or hurt the film, and find out if Eternia's newest adventure has the power... or if it should be banished to Snake Mountain forever.⚔️ Spoilers throughout!Follow We Needed Roads Podcast on the socials:🐦 Twitter/Xhttps://twitter.com/NeededRoads📸 Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/weneededroads🎵 TikTokhttps://www.tiktok.com/@weneededroadspodcast🎧 Follow us on Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/0E31ucDQy7Ha5PRdtahAjb?si=50a97260f09f4ad7👤 Our SocialsNeilhttps://bsky.app/profile/neilg78.bsky.socialhttps://www.instagram.com/neil_gregory78Neil’s Substack:https://substack.com/@greggors78Davidhttps://bsky.app/profile/llongd.bsky.social@llongd.bsky.socialJose🐦 https://x.com/aspanishjoe📸 https://www.instagram.com/joselopezphotos📷 https://www.jlopezphotos.comMariehttps://x.com/Life_onMarszhttps://www.instagram.com/life.on.marsz/And her podcast https://t.co/VEzFUG3ObXClare 📸 Instagramclareellenhope🐦 Twitter/Xclareellenhope🎵 TikTokclareellenhope1And her podcasthttps://youtube.com/@W-Rated?si=4qXPZOoi8roWOLZnhttps://open.spotify.com/show/2x7Ag7oDjg1e9mKOw9eGDO?si=b288ae7fe710454e🚗 Fund Our Quest for a DeLoreanhttps://www.buymeacoffee.com/Weneededroads#MastersoftheUniverse #HeMan #Skeletor #CamilaMendes #MovieReview #Podcast #WeNeededRoads #Eternia #SheRa #Teela

    We Needed Roads... We Got Hallways | Backrooms (2026) Review & Discussion

    The internet's favourite nightmare has finally escaped YouTube and made its way to the big screen.Join Neil and special guest Clare from the W-Rated Podcast as we dive into Backrooms, Kane Parsons' hugely anticipated horror film adaptation of the viral phenomenon. We discuss how low-budget horror continues to punch well above its weight, following in the footsteps of recent breakout successes like Backrooms and Obsession, and ask whether a new generation of YouTube creators are proving they can bring their audiences from the algorithm to the box office.As always, we break down the good, the bad and the WTF moments from the film. Does Backrooms live up to the hype? Does its liminal horror work on a feature-length scale? And just how many endless yellow corridors is too many endless yellow corridors?We also share our own real-life liminal space horror stories, including Clare's surreal experience getting hopelessly lost in the backrooms of Disney World at 2am, and Neil's deeply unsettling midnight journey into the basement of a castle that felt like he'd accidentally noclipped out of reality.So grab a flashlight, keep an eye on the ceiling tiles, and whatever you do, don't follow the noises down the corridor...Follow We Needed Roads Podcast on the socials:🐦 Twitter/Xhttps://twitter.com/NeededRoads📸 Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/weneededroads🎵 TikTokhttps://www.tiktok.com/@weneededroadspodcast🎧 Follow us on Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/0E31ucDQy7Ha5PRdtahAjb?si=50a97260f09f4ad7👤 Our SocialsNeilhttps://bsky.app/profile/neilg78.bsky.socialhttps://www.instagram.com/neil_gregory78Neil’s Substack:https://substack.com/@greggors78And find Clare at 📸 Instagramclareellenhope🐦 Twitter/Xclareellenhope🎵 TikTokclareellenhope1And her podcasthttps://youtube.com/@w-rated?si=4qXPZOoi8roWOLZnhttps://open.spotify.com/show/2x7Ag7oDjg1e9mKOw9eGDO?si=b288ae7fe710454e#Backrooms #KaneParsons #HorrorMovies #MovieReview #LiminalSpaces #WeNeededRoads #WRatedPodcast
