youll never be izzyzzz :P

“Toralei is basically the source of conflict in this movie” words that define a cinematic universe.

“for some reason the lamp has a dresscode, and it’s one word, its C*NT” THE WAY I LAUGHED LMAO

Grayson: I'm quitting Also Grayson: *drops this banger*

The biggest crime of the Boo-York movie was not letting Operetta sing!😠

I remember the #savefrankie campaign for the Freaky Fusion movie, I got so angry just because Frankie was getting so much attention compared to the others 😭

One correction about freak fusion; The monster that Vitor created was not looking for the meaning of life, he was looking for family because that was what Vitor was looking for most.

Monster high is probably one of the best doll lines out there. It was integral to my childhood, also we have the same Torelai doll, and her hair is also a mess

My older brother was making fun of me for watching Monster High when I was younger (I'm 18 now, this happened a year ago when he was 20) but then he decided to watch Boo York Boo York and.... Yeah he was hooked. Me and his girlfriend just had our own conversation with each other whilst he was watching it but he was getting fully invested. It was hilarious

the rollerskating one was MY CHILDHOOD i had all the movies on dvd and would watch them religiously lmao

I’m annoying sorry, but I see Escape from Skullshore as an homage to King Kong, specifically the 2005 version. And I think that was actually what they were going for

Okay, the plot of the one with the genie sounds like the most complex kids movie plot I’ve ever heard. 😅

the anger and resentment i still feel for myself for selling all of my monster high dolls 😭😭 i had so many they were gorgeous and beautiful (especially the birthday version of draculaura and nefera!) but then i hit my ”too cool to have dolls” phase and sold them 😭 i’m 22 now and desperately wish i didnt do that. 😂

it's been like 10 years but i finally understand why the roller derby girls at my school were obsessed with monster high thank u grayson

About banning books: I also think EACH parent who wants to ban a book has to be active in the PTA, and they should turn in a persuasive essay-style book report on why it should be banned.

bro i was just listening to the original monster high songs wtf and 9 seconds later you post this

here’s time stamps for the video cuz why not i was bored and thought it would be fun ig. also now i’m curious what movie has a twilight ref?? cuz i don’t recall any refs although it’s been forever since i’ve seen the movies so ʅ（◞‿◟）ʃ anyways time stamps- - - - - - - - - - - - - 0:00 - intro 1:02 - sponsor (read banned books!!) _gen 1 movies_ 5:23 - new ghoul in school 7:23 - fright on 10:58 - why do ghouls fall in love 16:20 - escape from skull shores 20:44 - ghouls rule 25:17 - friday night frights 30:26 - scaris city of frights 33:50 - halfway point intermission 34:07 - 13 wishes 39:19 - frights, camera, action 44:17 - freaky fusion 50:54 - haunted 56:00 - boo york, boo york 1:01:20 - great scarrier reef _gen 2 movies_ 1:05:05 - welcome to monster high 1:08:53 - electrified 1:12:20 - ranking 1:13:25 - outro

Grayson can I just tell you when I was way younger me and my sister randomly entered some kid's tv show contest and won 7 of the original monster high dolls (Lagoona, Clawdeen, Frankie, Draculaura, Cleo, Ghoulia and Deus) and I'm still riding that high till this day. I didn't even watch the show outside of the one day they were advertising the contest, so me and my sister had no idea we won until the package arrived

there is no other way i would rather spend my time than watching grayson talk about tween movies i feel so passionate about 😭😭😭

The fact you called it 'monster high Instagram' when talking abt Valentine and Draculaura, instead of 'Monstagram" has me crawling the walls. Missed opportunity right there

so are we just not gonna acknowledge that victor frankenstein is hot???? i will

Monarella GHOSTIER 💜

1:44 1984 is such a good book, and we actually enjoyed it so much!! It is pretty dystopian to BAN this book imo

We will always support you and your channel. Keep working hard.

Friday night frights was my movie, that movie was so extra and the music are so hard, Rochelle was my goddess, and the outfits popped off. It’s such an iconic movie idgaf

It is so interesting to see the people a decade younger than me sharing nostalgia about the toys and movies that came out when I was in Jr high and high school. Very fun tbh

so i was watching the scaris movie recently and theres this point where these broadway directors are offering a character lead roles & they mention "The Book of Gorgon" musical (obviously referincing the Book of Mormon musical)... therefore implying that there are in-universe mormons & they are called gorgons. & what is deuce?? A GORGON

these movies were my FAVORITE thing ever when i was little and honestly i still love them more than anything they made me who i am

Rochelle and Robecca appear in ghouls rule because Friday night frights was originally supposed to be aired on tv in between skull shores and ghouls rule but there was issues with Nickelodeon and the movie was not seen until it was released on dvd in 2013. They appear on ghouls rule because it takes place after friday night frights

you’re giving off your own monster high vibes 🖤💞 i’m obsessed with your dye job and your fits 🔥

Ngl Heath has become a new favorite after re-watching all the webisodes. He's just a goofy guy.

watching this video with my kiyomi and drac dolls on my desk when you got to haunted was actually devastating i hope they didnt hear you call haunted disappointing 💔

I follow you on both of your channels, and just wanted to tell you I enjoy your movie reviews/rankings so much, they are such a joy to listen to! Thank you for everything you did and do on this channel as well as the daily vlogs. Like many others, I'll still be a subscriber on the other channel even if you fully stop this one because both your content and you as a person are kind and genuine, and I wish you the best!

love that you’re doing content that you enjoy making, loved seeing this. also 35:45 I’m sobbing I sent it to my friend

The way the original monster high movies ‘permanently altered’ my brain. Are you going to watch the new live action monster High sequel that’s coming out soon??

I love listening to people speak about their special interests

Really needed this video, surprised not to see more of these types of videos. The lore of MH is wild from ANY aspect (movies, webisodes, doll diaries, even the book series')

Posea is the daughter of Poseidon.. There was like a sea garden with all of the people in the sea's flower/plant, and Posea told Lagoona that hers was dying and she had to face her fear to save it or something

I love that people are still making Monster High content! also, I found out recently that in Friday Night Frights, it’s called ‘scream’ as in SKRM (Skulltimate Roller-maze), so that explains it lol

My girlfriend and me love monster high! she has such a big collection it’s awesome. I also bought her some of the old ones still in box. We rewatched all of the movies the other day and it was great. also we’re gonna watch the new live action movie today! love seeing you’re making a video about this. also I agree with everything you said about books, it’s crazy people are trying to ban them.

kinda unrelated, ignore if you want ig, but some of your dolls look like they have some glue seepage. its a really easy fix though! i still have my childhood lagoona, and i degluued her. basically mattel used glue that wouldn't fully harden to keep the hair in the head and it later meant the dolls hair would look and feel greasy. apparently it can discolor stuff too, but, again, really easy to fix. some people use baby powder(i didnt do that one so i cant attest to its efficiency lol), and others soak the girls in oxyclean or goo gone(i used oxyclean and it worked really well. i heard good stuff from goo gone too, though). i only have my lagoona so i reccomend you look more into it, but basically i just mixed some water with some oxyclean, bushed it through her hair, then let her hair soak in the mixture for about a day. after i thoroughly washed it out and her hair is just as good as it was when she was new.

Skull shores was basically just a King Kong parody/adaption(like actually). And Ghouls rule was about racism^^

Ummm!! Wow! This is my 1st time I ever witnessed you and this video blog. In queue with monster high you appeared about your love for MH. But then you went off on this amazing monolog about banned books. I was entranced,really blown away by your speech. That when you reappeared to continue on about MH I forgot that was the topic at hand. Love your banned books stance and great argument. Bravo. 👍🏼

13 Wishes had my high school bestie and I in a chokehold. The plot had a gagged, and the fashion was giving it to the girlies

Not to throw a pity party, but I wish I would’ve gotten to participate in the monster high craze during my childhood 😭 I’m a guy and a huge fan of the show but I obviously never got to play with any of the dolls. Someday I will find one and take back my childhood fr

grayson having the dolls i had as a kid is making me so nostalgic 😭 monster high was my jam and i am so upset that those dolls were lost to time for me...

I needed this video this week, thank you 🙏

I watched a lot of monster high in my childhood. Watching this feels like an ode to my childhood self.

The amount of times I watched Why Do Ghouls Fall In Love as a child it was my fav

ellen hopkins is also my favorite author, I discovered her around the same age. I love her style of writing so so much

“ *Frankie fucking dies* “ That got me 48:13

Can’t wait to see this hair dye job in the vlog it looks SUPER sick!!!!💖💖

This vid was amazing! Thank you for not being nostalgia poisoned and giving welcome to mh a fair chance, since I feel gaslit every time people say it´s the worst thing that has ever happenned lmao

literally as soon as i saw the title & thumbnail my fingers have never tapped faster :') thank you for making this

Love love love this and the eye makeup!!❤

Monster High has been my #1 special interest and I can provide some insight on some of the notable things that stood out to me. Friday Night Frights actually was before Ghouls Rule, or rather it was supposed to be. FNF was originally going to premiere July 2012 and GR came out Oct. 9th 2012. This didn’t end up happening because the initial premiere for FNF got delayed for about 1 year (to my knowledge there was never an official reason given). This is why in FNF Robecca and Rochelle are introduced the way that they are because it was genuinely supposed to be their introduction. Van Hellscream was actually somewhat of a celebrity, he was the (self-proclaimed) “top human expert on monsters” which is why Bloodgood knew who he was and was just chill with him being there at first. Valentines story was supposed to be much deeper and I WISH TO THIS DAY Mattel weren’t *cowards*. Long story short Valentine is gay and part of the reason he was well the way he was in the movie is because he was jealous of straight people being able to openly have/find/express love as well as a mixed in confused feelings since he’s *supposed* to like women as a man but he doesn’t. The resolution originally was supposed to be him coming to terms with his sexuality and embracing what real love is for him and ditching the fake love he’d thrown himself into to distract him from these turmoils. Mattel shot this idea down because it “wasn’t the right time” and “might be offensive” despite the idea being pitched by Garrett Sanders (the creator of Monster High) himself (iirc) and ironically Garett being the only openly gay person at that time being told this by a bunch of cishet executives. The team did eventually get to sneak it in as his SDCC doll’s diary mentions that at his fresh start at monster high (fixing his mistakes in the movie not going there yet) after not doing evil anymore he bumped into Spelldon Cauldronello and they exchanged numbers.

I haven’t thought about Ellen Hopkins in forever!!! Her books are incredible

13 wishes and Why do Ghouls fall in love just really spoke to me growing up

listening to you explain the plots is hilarious

I loved Freaky Fusion a lot but I think that was because I was going through a Steven Universe phase

oh my god yessss mh is one of my weird obsessions i haven’t let go of since childhood lmaooo

The content I needed today

For the Boo-York Boo-York movie. You forgot to mention the post credit scene where Astra Nova is talking on the phone with Raven Queen and Apple White from Ever After High…thus confirming that MH and EAH exist in the same universe.

Omgggg I love seeing such appreciation for Friday Nighr Frights, i think it has such a good message and executes it well but cause its a budget lines, few people have even watched it. Also appreciate seeing hate for Haunted. Haunted sucks

Exactly what i needed

Haunted is in my top mh movies I was so surprised that you were dissapointed in it! Awesome video!!!!!

im so glad someone made a FUCKING video about this 💕💕💕

Omg I love monster high so much like the dolls the movies the story everything is perfect!

I love the way you talk- you seem so cool- loved the vid!

I'll never forgive monster high for not releasing the shadow ghouls as dolls. Iknow about the reel drama dolls, but its not the same to me 🖐🏻😔

This is a video I Didn’t know I needed but now that I have it I am crying

I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS VIDEO 🗣️

I hate how much I love your vids, got a graysons projects notif while doing a physics practice exam.... you'll never guess what i am no longer doing >:3

I LOVEDDD my fresh water Lagoona doll when I was younger and seeing that photo was such a jumpscare I do not remember her looking that cracked omlllll

Goddamn this video is a great idea! I love MH!

I'm actually devastated for you about Cleo & Lagoona 😫

I'm sorry but the soundtrack for the movie slaps lol my siblings and i can sing any song line for line from boo york 😭😭

omg this sparked a whole memory for me! when i was a kid, i had cleo's outfit in great barrier reef and i loved it sm until my grandmas 13 year old dog chewed it up 😭

The hair let down is cool and ultra, and up in the tiara and spiking and fanning out is 💜 very fetching!!!

13 Wishes is one of those movies that I really wanted to like. And if it wasn't for the orientalism, it could've been on-par with Bionicle 3:Web of Shadows(2005) in my opinion.

(ps- love that you have the OG howleen btw) 🧡

i loooovvveee 13 wishes!!! it was my favourite movie by far when i was a kid

GETTING THIS NOTIF MADE ME SO EXCITED OMGG

I cannot believe I never watch any of those movies. Well, time to do it

the lack of Ghoulia and Abbey in the G2 movies was criminal

I think Ghoul Squad is part of G2 and I really enjoyed that. It's a little different than the movies tho

Girl? Why didn’t you talk bout Operetta because she’s my fav. I have a doll of her. Lagoona and Cleo were close behind too. But Operetta was my fav and I loved her the most haha. I wanted u to talk more about her. 😢

i dont know why i sat through this i have never watched anything even remotely related to monster high. good video

loved this video !!

I've been on MH movie binge for half a year now!

I don’t ever comment on YT videos like ever, but I have NO one to dump this rant to so imma leave this here: In regards to Ghouls Rule, I’m actually so shocked it’s the lowest rating?? I honestly thought it would either be Skull Shores or The Great Scarrier Reef honestly. Ghouls Rule is my favorite out of all the movies but it’s also my least favorite of that makes ANY sense. 😂🤚 It’s pros for me are definitely being based on Halloween (my favorite holiday) and being twisted into cool MH lore, like..that’s so awesome. And I LOVVVVE even more that the movie mainly revolves around uniting humans and monsters. I think it’s a simple yet very interesting concept especially when one of my favorite male characters is part normie. Leading into my biggest pro being that Jackson Jekyll/Holt Hide get so much screen time in this movie and is part of the main plot, as I feel he’s a character that often is overlooked and underrated, especially when it’s established in the web series that he’s Heath Burn’s cousin and..there’s little to no interaction between the two at ALL and really nothing done with that information. (Admittedly Heath is def ick towards Jackson as it implies he doesn’t really care much for him bc he’s a normie and literally undermines that fact in Jackson’s initial introduction and it takes Duece to be the one to be like “okay, why does that matter? MH is a place for everyone: don’t stonewall your cousin, dude-“ and invite Jackson to their table at lunch,but that in itself could have been SUCH an interesting dynamic for Heath and Jackson to develop and grow together as family. I actually really like Heath just for what he is, but I feel it could have added a lot to his own character and given him some actual depth as well rather than being limited solely to comic relief, and I really feel like this would have been THE movie to perfectly capture this dynamic and involve Heath more rather than the Abbey subplot, but it’s just lost potential. Adding on to this. I NEVER hear anyone talk about the use of Jackson/Holt in the series or in Ghouls Rule and I honestly felt other than in the original web comics that in Ghouls Rule: THAT’S where his character really stood out, as both Jackson and Holt (mostly Jackson but honestly l love that being highlighted more than the monster side since that’s his normie side is his “flaw” by monster perspectives). Leading to my biggest con and my conflicting detest for the movie, in my totally biased opinion that being the fact that afterwards..his character I feel is just totally butchered?!? 😅 He’s just reverted back to being a punching bag with little to NO screen time UNLESS it’s people reminding him that he’s a normie with no say and cast aside. Like…literally, he carries Howleen as like a slave in a scene somewhere in 13 Wishes?! Contributes NOTHING. It frustrates me so much the writers took such a fascinating character and threw his potential down the drain when I feel he’s one of the most interesting of the male cast! Ofc MH is mostly about the Ghouls=Girls but Duece has pretty decent character development and dynamic with other characters and depth to his character sooo? Idk, maybe it’s just a popularity thing?! I feel like after the Ghouls Rule movie that Jackson should have been included in further titles much more, and given him as himself and Holt more depth, like how they learn to grow and function as a whole together to further their interpersonal development. And I feel that Heath helping him along with that and learning to love him the way he is would have been so amazing to see honestly bc…MH has built itself on being for everyone even if the demographic was mostly tween girls, I feel the small portion of tween boys watching could have really used and appreciated that representation of acceptance for themselves by peers and and mostly by family being the so called “black sheep” and being different from the rest of them. And ALSO totally biased opinion, but reigniting the flame with Frankie like they originally did in the web series?!?! Omg, would have been the icing on the CAKE. 😭😭😭 Maybe this is only me who feels this way but I honestly despised the way they kind of pushed the whole Jackson/Claire relationship in Ghouls Rule when I felt there really was no chemistry between the two other than ig like “opposites attract” but…to me it just felt so foreign and bland and completely unnecessary. It shattered me as a kid thinking the Frankie/Jackson/Holt train could kick off into development after being left to dangle in the web series. No one talks about that pairing and it PAINS ME

frankie stein christ narrative

This deserves more views

lagoona's skull shores vacation look changed my life
