Watch: New Trailer For HOTEL TRANSYLVANIA

Check out the new trailer for Genndy Tartakovsky's HOTEL TRANSYLVANIA starring the voices of Adam Sandler, Selena Gomez, David Spade, Steve Buscemi, Kevin James, Molly Shannon, Cee Lo green and Andy Samberg.

Clearly there is sufficient comedic talent lined up for the voice cast, but how's the story? Time will tell. 

Here's the synopsis:
Welcome to the Hotel Transylvania, Dracula’s (Adam Sandler) lavish five-stake resort, where monsters and their families can live it up, free to be the monsters they are without humans to bother them. On one special weekend, Dracula has invited some of the world’s most famous monsters – Frankenstein and his bride, the Mummy, the Invisible Man, a family of werewolves, and more – to celebrate his daughter Mavis’s 118th birthday. For Drac, catering to all of these legendary monsters is no problem – but his world could come crashing down when one ordinary guy stumbles on the hotel and takes a shine to Mavis.

Here's hoping this is good time! It has the possibilities in place so let's see if it delivers. HOTEL TRANSYLVANIA opens on September 28.

MUST WATCH: Animated Prequel To PRIEST!

**SAME DAY UPDATE: Check out the new online PRIEST game - playable in 3D or 2D!!

Guys - you need to watch this animated prequel to PRIEST to get an understanding of what is happening in that universe. It is very well done in fact.

Animator Genndy Tartakovsky (Samurai Jack) created the three minute piece and it is very much worth your time to watch as it allows you to see why priests were important and what their current status is for society. I won't go into more detail as it would spoil the clip for you.

Here's the movie's storyline:
PRIEST, a post-apocalyptic sci-fi thriller, is set in an alternate world—one ravaged by centuries of war between man and vampires. The story revolves around a legendary Warrior Priest (Paul Bettany) from the last Vampire War who now lives in obscurity among the other downtrodden human inhabitants in walled-in dystopian cities ruled by the Church. When his niece (Lily Collins) is abducted by a murderous pack of vampires, Priest breaks his sacred vows to venture out on an obsessive quest to find her before they turn her into one of them. He is joined on his crusade by his niece's boyfriend (Cam Gigandet), a trigger-fingered young wasteland sheriff, and a former Warrior Priestess (Maggie Q) who possesses otherworldly fighting skills.

Man, this is shaping up to be a huge hit in my view! More when I get it!!
