>>106785068The biggest failing is indeed Adam Sandler in the main role. Contrary to what /co/ would have you believe Mavis is NOT the protagonist of this movie series. She's at best a glorified side character and one who quickly fell out of favor with /co/ thanks to how she was written to fall in love with a seriously unappealing lame and possibly even annoying character. Anyway back to Adam Sandler, his rendition of Dracula is awful. They literally got rid of superior designs for Dracula to make Adam Sandler look like a cartoon version of himself as Dracula. His voice acting is also poor as he cannot do a proper vampire voice (anyone remember the TMNT Halloween Special from 2012? They got a REAL good voice actor for Dracula in there). And finally the biggest strike against these movies is Dracula is NOT a likable character. He's an abusive father, he's also incredibly meddlesome in matters that aren't his business, and no one really cared about his potential future love life with that tranny from the third movie.
So yeah, these movies are awful. But much like Minions or Ice Age Sequels they get made because they do in fact make $$$ with the intended demographic. Man do I feel sorry for the fathers and mothers who have to endure this animated torture. Fathers and mothers already view animation poorly and forcing them to endure movies like Hotel Transylvania, Minions, recent Grinch or more Ice Age Sequels is not going to help one single little bit.
