Hotel Transylvania 2

Following yesterday’s awesome news about a new season of Samurai Jack coming our way next year, I got a double dose of Genndy by watching Hotel Transylvania 2 (he directed it), which I’d say is even better than the first one. What I love so much about these two movies is that they are the closest I think we’ve come in the age of CG animation to something that feels at times like those old Warner Bros. cartoons (Merry Melodies and Looney Tunes). There’s something about the way characters are animated that so reminds me of those old shorts – it’s definitely nothing like what you see from Pixar or DreamWorks. Great fun, and makes me sad again that we’ll never see his full take on Popeye.
