Ever After High Is Latest Mattel Toy Line to Get a Movie Before He-Man
 |
Ever After High is basically the result of somebody at Mattel saying, “Hey, you know how great our Monster High stuff sells? Let’s do the same thing but with fairy tales.” And because the concept is almost exactly the same as about five other things out there (many of them owned by Disney), it’s going to be a movie already.
Meanwhile – and I say this fully aware there will one day be innumerable “Zombie LYT masturbates to He-Man” comments, somewhere – Masters of the Universe continues to not happen. Because the best director they got decided it would be quicker and easier to get Jem made instead. When Hasbro raids your A-list to make their C-list, you have failed. I’m resigning myself to the fact that we’ll probably see a live-action Equestria Girls before we get Eternia.
