Movie Review: Hotel Transylvania 2

It's a great time for great movies! This movie happened to be a sequel of a really great movie that came out a few years ago. Hotel Transylvania was such a good movie that they decided to have the great idea of making another one (a great decision in my opinion). This movie was one of those rare times where a sequel is almost better than the original. With it's wonderful plot line, hilarious characters and a lovable baby this movie rivaled those before it!
Read ahead for more awesome reviews of this newest installment of Hotel Transylvania!

This movie was based all around the fact that Mavis (Selena Gomez) and her new hubby, Jonathan (Andy Samberg) just having their first baby. Once the news was broken to Mavis' father, Dracula (Adam Sandler) he tried very hard to get the baby, Dennis (Asher Blinkoff) to get his fangs, because he definitely could be part vampire! Mavis is worried that her father is trying too hard to get Dennis his fangs so she tells Dracula that she and Jonathan are planning on moving away so Dennis can try living with humans, since he might actually be a human. Dracula definitely does not like that plan and tricked Mavis into going on a trip with Jonathan while Dracula (along with this friends Frankenstein, Mummy, the Invisible Man, and Wayne the Werewolf) take Dennis on an adventure to get his fangs. Unfortunately, Mavis finds out, of course, and well you'll have to go see the movie to find out what happens next! But I definitely assure you, it ends with a happy ending.

This movie was full of witty humor, clever puns, and all sorts of great sly adult humor that makes the young children movie all that much better. The characters were full of character development that stemmed from the first movie, although you don't need to have seen the first movie to know what is going on in this one.

The plot definitely takes a bit of the turn for the dark as the movie really gets going and creates a ton of tense scenes that can be a little bit frightening for small children but overall those tense parts really clear up with the humor that is involved in a way that makes you forget it was stressful in the first place.

If you are into cute movies or if you are still in the Halloween spirit I definitely recommend this movie for all people of all ages. It's a great way to spend a few hours and I can guarantee you will even laugh out loud at some parts! Hotel Transylvania 2 is an excellent sequel that you will be reaching for on a cold day cuddled up under the blankets. There is no, as Dracula would say, "blah-blah-blah" about it!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
