What A Cartoon Movie! - Hotel Transylvania

Sometimes you zing, and sometimes that's in a movie that brings together the creators of Samurai Jack and The Ambiguously Gay Duo! We're covering 2012's Hotel Transylvania, a film that went through more than six different directors before Adam Sandler's crew of pals were brought on to star in it, while Genndy Tartakovsky rescues the animators in his theatrical debut! How different were previous iterations, why was Miley Cyrus fired from it, and what was the process of adding squash & stretch to Sony's CGI toolset? Learn about that as we mash with these monsters on this Frankenstein-sized podcast!

Missed this one when it came out and glad I finally watched it. I'm a big fan of Dave Matthews and he's actually a good friend of Adam Sandler and has been in several of Sandler's films. He also has a great cameo in The Simpson's episode, "Girls in the Band" where he portrays the bartender from The Shining.

I could be reading a joke where there isn't one but I think Wayne's name might be a pun on the waning phase of the moon. Werewolf? Moon? It might be more clear if his wife's name was Luna or something.

Some cousin naming convention pedantry: #th cousins and # times removed still exist. If someone is your 2nd cousin, that means you share great-grandparent(s). The “removed” part comes in if you’re of different generations. Eg if your grandparent is your cousin’s great-grandparent, then you’re 2nd cousins, once removed. 2nd cousin, twice removed would be the same thing as a grand aunt/uncle

Surprised by the vehement Frankenweenie hate lol. I remember thinking after the Corpse Bride podcast, "well, they'd probably like Frankenweenie at least, that one's a lot better." But I guess not. XP I'm not even a dog person and I was teary-eyed for that pup by the end. I couldn't care for Hotel Transylvania, meanwhile. When I gave it a shot a year or two ago I had to turn it off after 10 or so minutes. Very Minions-esque. I would've given it a second chance for the podcast if it was streaming, but it's apparently only on Peacock. (I'm not that desperate.)

I can be the resident younging No I have no nostalgia for the Smurf’s commercial I don’t think anyone is saying zing in the way it is used in this film Yes I know what a website and a vhs is at age 21 shocking I know

February 28, 2025 The Day The Earth Blew Up: A Looney Tunes Movie in theaters . So they sold to an other company so don’t think WB get any more money from it so go see it to show they hype for the characters.

That magic show Genndy made for Max, Unicorn: Warriors Eternal, is really great. Definitely check it out.

Wow The Chub-Chubs cuts me deep, I remember watching that very ugly animated short as a bonus feature on the Men in Black II DVD. I was like 8 at the time and I had a small passing fascination with it and can distinctly remember showing it off to my friends when they came over as a l "wow can you believe DVDs" kind of thing.

I have nothing BUT contempt for this court

Had zero interest in these movies until Bob and Henry said this one is good. Watched the trailer and now I would love to see!
