It is hard to believe it has been three years since Hotel Transylvania graced the big screen. It was a movie I liked, but did not quite love. I think that may have been because I saw it in the midst of a really good run of animated fare. 2012 also brought us Frankenweenie and the incredible ParaNorman, so far as other horror themed films, plus there was the video game themed Wreck-It-Ralph. It is hard to stand out in that crowd and in another year Hotel Transylvania may have stood out more for me. Still, I did like it, the story may have been a tad generic, but the jokes and respect for the classic monsters is a definite winner. Now we have the sequel. How does it stack up?

Movie Review: Pixels
Pixels.... here is a movie I am not going to spend much time on. While I have definitely seen worse movies this year, that is not saying much. I think the worst thing is that from the time I saw the trailer right on up through its release until I was able to see it, I was a defender of Pixels. I thought it looked like a fun summer movie based on a pretty solid idea. Unfortunately, now that I have seen the movie, I can no longer defend it. I still think the idea is a good one, but the execution is just terrible. Pixels is not a good movie, it is lazy and boring.
