Thor: Ragnarok is best Live Action He-Man?

I read somewhere about that and if you think about its kinda true. He-Man was an 80's cartoon about a muscular blonde prince with a magic weapon who protects his realm filled with colorful and dressed people and creatures. Thor: Ragnarok is kinda the same thing though most of those peculiar creatures came from another world and while it wasn't made in the 80's it does have an 80's vibe. Heck at the beginning of the movie he's fighting some demon like creature in his dark lair and he looks sorta like he has a skull for a face and who is He-Man's arch nemesis? Skeletor...who has a skull for a face. Hela has a big giant black dog like creature at her side and while it wasn't a dog or very big Skeletor did have Panthro. The Hulk is Thor's big green ally and comrad and He-Man had Battle Cat who was also green. If The Incredibles can be considered the best Fantastic Four movie then why not consider Thor: Ragnarok the best Live Action He-Man. It's certainly a lot better than that other movie from the 80's with Dolph Lungren.

While there are parallels, it must be remembered that Thor of Marvel Comics predated He-Man by several decades. That, and I've always been under the impression that He-Man was meant to be a kid friendly version of Conan the Barbarian when he first started life as a toy line, even before he was a cartoon character.
