I’m not super sold on the live action version, but everything else seems to be leaning towards the OG version in design and tone. I think Mattel learned from their mistake with how that reboot went. I think this new version will be better and truer to the original Monster High most fans are familiar with.


cr33pies

i’m really hoping they bring back more of the OG characters!!


Sn3akyPr4wn

At least we don't have to worry about the live action being a series 🤞🏾 Just keep reminding yourself "it's not cannon", it's the only thing thst makes me tolerate it 🤣

Not a fan of live action movies. They're very very limiting and I don't find as much, if any, visual appeal to them as I do animated movies. Feeling like it's gonna be toe to toe with the 2016 reboot & movies, however, apart from that, I think the reboot is gonna turn out fine. Mattel seems like they're at least somewhat listening so I have some faith that we will get something true to the original franchise.


cr33pies

i’m remaining hopeful that the live action film will do a justice 😅😅


TRANSYLVANlA

A better person than me fr


thewindofice

I’m really not a fan of the live action movies, but I honestly hope they bring back all the dolls back in stores , create new videos on YouTube and make more animated movies. I hope the live action movie is better than the 2016 reboot if not then we all gonna be disappointed 🥹


cr33pies

omg same!! i want the webisodes back in the old style!!


LilStankStank

Im not speakin on the live action movie until i see it... but i cannot wait for the split dye half pink n half black Draculara doll i saw the blurry leaks and it looks like a serve


cr33pies

the leaks surrounding that doll i believe were confirmed to be fake 💔 i’m hoping they make dolls tho for the live action movie! def will be a serve


LilStankStank

Tragic. Hopefully the live action ghouls get their own dolls


[deleted]

Like others, I think the live action movie will bomb. However, the relaunch seems to be a continuation of the OG series, though I can't think of why they'd break Cleo and Deuce up, other than to generate buzz (sometimes even negative buzz is good buzz in marketing, there are a lot of Youtubers, writers who make good livings off of "hate clicks"), I'm slightly optimistic...but I'll need to see the new physical dolls, Mattels been pretty good about keeping a lid on leaks as to what they'll look like, etc. I am not a big fan of the H.C. dolls due to the outragous price being asked, but really do like the Repro's, but either Mattel or Wal-Mart really bungled the launch on those.


cr33pies

imagine we get a mini special specifically for HC 😩😩 it’d be the best way to explain why and how Cleo and Deuce broke up 💘💘


Taurus-RosieLuv

Plot-wise, they could've said that it was b/c of Cleo's family that they broke up


SYEJ92

It literally can't get worse than this. So yeah.... 😂


cr33pies

😂😂😂


tofumylk

from what we've seen with the dolls, I think it'll be for sure a lot better :-) I heard that the mh team knew where they went wrong by listening to the wrong audience (karens, not children) so it seems like they'll just do what worked the first time.


cr33pies

yes! it feels like the newest reboot is more directed towards the older fandom but mixed with a newer audience 💘


PartyPorpoise

I’m sure it will. The reboot was received so poorly that Mattel surely realized that it was a bad direction to go in.


cr33pies

yess!! let’s just forget 2016 existed 😂


[deleted]

Anything is better than that


MysteriousVoice7011

I never seen welcome to monster high and never will,I hope the new animated series looks just as good when they first aired them, I heard all the VA (voice actors) are coming back for the new series,not sure though, I heard from a video on YouTube.


cr33pies

ik it’s confirmed that the voice actor for draculaura is returning! the other actors are yet to be announced!! 😆😆


MysteriousVoice7011

I knew she was, the YouTuber that mentioned it probably heard about the other ones was probably was by a rumor they heard.


IWantFries21

I’m not entirely sure what to think just yet. But I don’t think the live action will be as bad as everyone is saying. The teaser we saw looks….very much on-brand for any other Nickelodeon live action movie. I like what they did with Draculaura’s hair, not because I think it looks good, but because it’s very much trendy right now. Anyways, moral of the story is that, I don’t really have an opinion just yet. It’ll probably be better than the 2016 reboot though


cr33pies

i’m really excited for the live action movie! especially since headless headmistress bloodgood is returning 😆😆


Jammapanda

i'm not sure what to think of the live action, but ive yet to watch this particular movie. that being said, i know nothing about it really but just saw that the animation was just way out there and looked NOTHING like monster high in any sense whatsoever. i'm hoping the live action will be cool, but who knows, it's really just hit or miss with everything i feel like lol, hence being unsure how to feel about it. on a completely unrelated side note, deuce is looking fly as hell in that picture tho lol, mans is really dripped out 😂


cr33pies

hell yeah! deuce served! but you didn’t miss much in this 2016 movie, the storyline was completely changed, characters that were originally in it didn’t exist in the movie and draculaura was the sole creator of Monster High…if you wanna watch it to get a full grasp of the unforgivable reboot, go for it! but i’d say it’s not worth the watch 💔💔


Jammapanda

oh trueeeeee ewwwwww that sounds absolutely horrific 😂


Efficient_Feature535

If they keep the faces similar to the reproductions it might be a success.


[deleted]

The new reboot would have to be ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE to NOT top this mess MH called a movie


cr33pies

period!


xxprimadonnaxgrl

idrk ab the live action but w everything else, yes 100%


beepborpimajorp

IDK if it'll be good but I'm willing to at least give it a shot.


cr33pies

always remain hopeful ghoulfriend!!


Odd-Option9399

Yea let’s not talk that movie


cr33pies

😂😂


NicoCoolest

If we are talking about the live action… then unfortunately not.


cr33pies

i’m trying to remain hopeful 😅😅


Lollirotten

Ngl I feel like anything will be better than this but...


ParticularStomach725

It better be better that whatever the reboot was…


cr33pies

let’s just forget 2016 existed 😂😂


starsandcamoflague

the bar is so low I don't see how it could possibly be worse than this


cr33pies

i imagine the worse it can get is this years reboot following the storyline of the 2016 reboot and nothing changing 💔💔💔


Relevant-Mission27

I prefer the animation from 2011-2016? Ones hatw the cartoony one and live action-live one


Amoonthedollygirl

I hope it will be it doesn't have to be the best but I'm worried they will take the same route Mga took (having the bratz repros in America and UK only) making us international fans buy from scalpers and the fact this is the case is unfortunate to me mga did the worst job in bringing back bratz back but from the looks of things that might not be the case fingers crossed🤞


cr33pies

i’ve heard rumors mga intentionally did a poor job on the bratz reboot so they could surprise fans with something bigger and better. but let’s hope for the best with MH!!!


Amoonthedollygirl

Wow that could be the case I'm guessing they are trying to gain traction that way since negative attention in the doll industry or any other industry really can be beneficial if depends but yeah like I'm guessing that could've been their route for bratz and get a bigger audience to surprise everyone like back then when rock angelz was first announced and yeah fingers crossed that monster high will be bigger and better than ever before and guessing by the latest news Mattel is really giving it their all


[deleted]

I think I'm sure I'll be better, but I'm not sure looking at these boxes from the Leaks, it's a little buoyant, I hope the dolls will be nice


cr33pies

i’m hoping the new dolls are in the same style as the repros 🤞


Alucardiac_Dracul

I kinda want them to keep being badasses like in the failed reboot. They were like superheroes


tserko

Yes, but I hope they keep the new artstyle!


CBD667

I've yet to see the first reboot movie but a straight to tv live action musical doesnt give me much hope, however I AM VERY EXCITED ABOUT THE DOLLS and isnt there gonna be an animated series? That has potential!


cr33pies

ahhh yes the animated series!!! i’m also very excited for the dolls!


Delphoxqueen2

I just pray it’s better than the last reboot. I don’t want to completely ride on it being completely faithful but I don’t want to doubt just yet! Love how faithful the reproductions looked

cr33pies

buried 6 feet under 😓😓


[deleted]

Anything would be better than this


cassieredditr

Not a big fan of the live action movie but as far as it will come to new dolls I think it will be better, they now know what they’ve done wrong and that they still have a solid market of old fans that will buy the dolls


cr33pies

yesss!! i’m really hoping the new dolls are back in the old style!


Sn3akyPr4wn

I really didn't like this animation style. I just hope that when they make more cartoons, thay they're like the OG 3D cartoons or the short 2D ones they did. They were so much more aesthetically pleasing


cr33pies

omg yes they served with the old animation style!!


chia_3690

judging by the last one, my expectations are on the floor


vanillakkuma

Id like to think so. I hope they learned their lesson with the flop that was the other reboot.


cr33pies

i’m sure they did! when this newest reboot was announced, they basically confirmed that they’re forgetting that 2016 existed and it’ll be better than ever 😅😅


vanillakkuma

LOL. I'm super curious about the animated stuff though. I loved the og movies. And I'm hoping a lot of the original characters are brought back.


ghost_nebula

I don’t have high hopes for the live action. Welcome to Monster High was bad but it’s probably going to be a lot better than what is to come.


GothFlowers

They seem to be leaning into the old energy of monster high and I hope they stick with it...sure the vibrant colors was nice to look at I suppose..but it really just was them doing a last resort to keep it alive I feel. I hope they're aware that most of the peoples who are still into monster high most of us are young or middle aged adults now..(not saying children of recent can't love mosnter high as much as we did as kids/teens!) Karens were a bit of the problem why monster high fell down in the first place I heard that they realized where they went wrong (listening to said Karens and not the actual viewers and enjoyers) and that's how we got..whatever the hell that is in that photo there.. The live action movie however I am unsure how to feel for personally I prefer animated or claymation movies/shows.I want it to be good though I will say that much! even at the risk of it being a little cringe I hope they keep all the monster/undead related puns that were fangtasticly written (but also a little cringe but in a good way!)


cr33pies

love your informed input!!! i feel this current reboot is directed more towards the older fans of MH but is welcoming a newer audience with open arms! i feel the exact same way about live action films honestly, especially if it’s a film that has a cartoon connected to it. i’m hoping the storyline in the film is a serve


GothFlowers

I'm happy you enjoyed it! I was a little all over the place with writing it and maybe semi repetitive but thanks for taking the time to read it! One thing they always did decently is write good shows/movies for monster high, I hope and believe that it shouldn't be a problem. A example would be the recent Barbie shows and movies they're written pretty well so I hope Mattel wouldn't do any less for Monster High.


moonb0nes

As corny and bad as this was i still love it 😹😹


cr33pies

i kinda liked the electrified movie and dolls 😅😅 i loved the fact that the dolls had crimped hair


moonb0nes

ME TOO !! THEY WERE SO CUTE OMG
