‘Hotel Transylvania 3’ Trailer: Dracula Goes On A Cruise And Hijinks Ensue

What happens when Dracula needs to get away from it all? If “he goes on a cruise” wasn’t the first thing to spring to mind (and it shouldn’t have been, because, well,sunlight), then you may be surprised by theHotel Transylvania 3trailer, which is all about the world’s most famous vampire and his extended clan going on a vacation.

Hotel Transylvania 3follows 2012’sHotel Transylvaniaand 2015’sHotel Transylvania 2, which revealed that Count Dracula spends his days running a hotel for monsters and trying to raise a family. I never saw either of them, but they made a lot of money (they broke September box office records and everything at the time) and inspired a Disney Channel show that premiered this year. In part three, Dracula takes a break from giving other other monsters a vacation and sets out on a vacation of his own. Will things go well? Will they encounter a mysterious enemy who threatens monster-kind? Have you ever seen a motion picture before?

These movies have completely washed by me, but they seem to have an audience. And honestly, I find it hard to muster much blind snark toward a series of family movies that may convince kids to seek out old school monster movies. If a Dracula voiced byAdam Sandlerteaches the next generation about Bela Lugosi, thensomethingis being done right. Plus, this series is keeping directorGenndy Tartakovskyemployed and surely animation fans are happy to see the creator ofSamurai Jackworking on big movies for big audiences.
