MinaTakla Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 Amazing move by SONY here in the UAE - for the first time in over probably 10 years an animated film is dubbed to Arabic and shown in theatres. HT2 is being shown with a dubbed version and an original one. While that is pretty common in Europe and Asia, in the Arab world we rarely get dubbed films in Arabic to be shown in cinemas This will boost its BO in MENA for sure.

Chinoiserie Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 From Forbes: I’m embargoed from reviewing Hotel Transylvania 2 until tomorrow afternoon, so all I will say is that I am baffled as to why the embargo for Hotel Transylvania 2 is so close to the release. This probably means he liked it (or thinks it is ok) if he does not undertand a need for last minute embargo. But I do not really agree with his reviews that often.

MrFanaticGuy34 Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 There could be people who would be afraid if this one gets bad reviews because of Sandler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mojoguy Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 There is a review up, but it's actually a review of the first for some reason ?!?! https://news.yahoo.com/review-hotel-transylvania-2-scarily-unfunny-051622533.html LOS ANGELES (AP) — The Associated Press has withdrawn the film review of "Hotel Transylvania 2." The review is for the original 2012 version of the film. The review of the new film is under studio embargo and will be sent after 7 p.m. EDT tonight. That review has been removed. I guess they screwed up! Nice of them to tell us when the embargo is lifted though! The HT2 reviews will start coming in tonight starting at 4pm PST/7pm EST!

DAJK Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 The original was fun, funny fluff. I'm happy if this is at least the same. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grim22 Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 This has a really good rating at Critics Choice: http://www.criticschoice.com/search?s=transylvania It is at 75/100 and 3 stars, would translate to around a 65-75% on RT provided all critics have sent in their ratings. If this turns out to be true, then why exactly has Sony embargoed this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrFanaticGuy34 Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 The first HT was at 44% on RT by critics. Surprisingly low for a movie that is Adam Sandler's highest grosser, WW. Can this one have better RT-score than the first one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mojoguy Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 The first HT was at 44% on RT by critics. Surprisingly low for a movie that is Adam Sandler's highest grosser, WW. I didn't even know Sandler was in the first movie, until I saw the credits. I prefer his Dracula accent over his normal voice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAJK Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 I actually can't wait to see the reviews for this. Regardless of what they are, I really want to see the movie; it looks fun and will likely be what starts getting me in the mood for Haloween this year.
