Its only around 400ish days away so I might as well talk about it.
So Hotel Transylvania 2 as you all may know or not know is happening and is due for a release on September 25th 2015.It was first talked about in October 2012 from Genndy Tartakovsky and then in November is when Sony had greenlit it and the release date was announced.When it was first announced Genndy said he wouldn't be returning to direct it since he was (and still is) directing a movie about popeye (coming out in 2016). We didn't really hear much about it in 2013 as Sony was finishing up The smurfs 2 and Cloudy with a chance of meatballs 2.Then in March 2014 Sony announced its upcoming slate of films and they announced that Genndy Tartakovsky would be returning to direct the film and they also announced that he is working on a project called can you imagine.Also Adam Sandler and Robert Smigel are writing the screenplay, since Sandler voices Dracula I assume he is returning to voice him.
So very little information on this film has been released but little by little they are giving us detail on this film.Not even the plot has been announced yet what could this sequel be about? Also in June 2014 Selena Gomez (voice of Mavis) posted on her instagram indicating she has begun recording for Hotel Transylvania 2, she also made a caption saying Mavis is getting big. I wonder if she will be big as big hero 6.
Speaking of which we are getting a new trailer this Tuesday (makes sense since planes:fire and rescue is coming out).I wonder what the new Trailer will be like?
Anyway back to Hotel Transylvaina 2.So with that said Selena Gomez is returning to voice Mavis in HT2 which is pretty awesome because I absolutely love Mavis and this makes me think Mavis will be the main protagonist this time around, Dracula was the protagonist in the first film .Also a page of it on Wikipedia shows that David Spade is returning to voice the invisible man but its Wikipedia so it could be wrong.
And this was also found at this years licensing expo
Also Sony has a few videos on their channel with some info on the film including storyboards
which you can find here
Other than that nothing else really but I'm really hoping for more information to be shown sooner or later since this films comes out in roughly 14 months I assume we'll get a trailer in early 2015.So that is all I have to say about Hotel Transylvania 2 I am excited for it.
Now that I have gotten HT2 out of the way I am now going to talk more about Big hero 6
Aside from the new trailer coming out on Tuesday a recent promo video shows that Hiros nurse robot Baymax can talk as seen in the video below
I am personally fine with this since I think his voice really works well with him especially that I assume he will have the armor on through out most of the film and it works for me and maybe he'll be funny too and plus he talks in the comics so that makes sense.I really think Baymax is a cool looking robot with or without the armor of course I prefer the armored Baymax since he looks awesome and what a japanese fighting robot should be whereas the soft plushy Baymax looks like a typical cute Disney robot (he feels like a character from WALL-E as a matter of fact) but thats not a bad thing since this is a Disney animated film but the overall the soft plushy Baymax is very cute whereas the battle armored Baymax looks awesome. Again like I said before I am excited for this film I think its going to be awesome!
Thats all I have for today better keep your fingers crossed for more information on Hotel Transylvania 2.
In this post I will talk about Disneys 54th animated feature Big Hero 6 coming out on November 7th.
Anyway I am very excited for this film, it is based on a marvel comic which is something Disney has never done before since they own Marvel now. Big hero 6 is one of the lesser know marvel superhero teams not many people know what it is.The teaser trailer was a lot of fun it was better than the teaser for frozen,it reminds me of the incredibles teaser .I am expecting a lot out of the film. I am expecting it to be cool, fun and heartwarming. The plot sounds very emotional since it involves a death and I'm sure it will be really emotional. look at the recent Disney films Tangled,Wreck it Ralph and Frozen they were all emotional and they were also fun and heartwarming too. personally I think Big hero 6 will be better than Frozen since it has a more emotional plot and its more of a fresh idea from Disney but I still really liked Frozen non the less (I even own it on blu ray).Anyway I am liking the look of the film, the animation is great looking too.Also I am excited to hear that Hiro and Baymax (the main characters) are going to be playable characters in Disney infinity 2.0 edition.
So far we know that T.J Miller will voice Fred, Jamie Chung will voice Gogo Tomago and Maya Rudolph my guess she will voice Honey lemon and there are rumors that Freddie Highmore,Josh Hutcherson and Samuel L Jackson will in it too.
I think the film will be a hit at the box office considering the positive buzz the teaser has been receiving so far I predict it will end up somewhere between Wreck-it Ralph and Tangled numbers so around $500 million worldwide or more.If its really good and is well marketed then $700 million at the latest for me.I also think it will be a critic acclaim film much all of their recent films.I really think that Big Hero 6 will spawn a new franchise for Disney that people will love.Thats all I have to say about BH6 I hope your excited for it as much as I am.
that's right folks we got a (official) image at Hotel Transylvania 2 which comes out on September 25th 2015 and we still don't know what the film will be about nor who will direct the film but I'm sure they will announce more later on since the film doesn't come for over a year. As far as box office predictions go this film could either under perform or be successful I doubt this sequel will bomb who knows if Sony markets the film extremely well it might just perform like Despicable me 2 and it has no competition until the peanuts movie comes out.What are your thoughts on this film do you think it will be successful or it will it under perform. Stay tuned for posts from me.
