Hotel Transylvania 2 is dit weekeinde in de Amerikaanse bioscopen gaan draaien, en heeft gelijk een record gebroken. Namelijk de hoogste debuut voor een september film, en dit is omdat deze in zijn openingsweekeinde maar liefst $47.5 miljoen dollar pakte. Mocht je deze erg leuke film zelf willen zien, dan moet je nog even tot 7 oktober wachten, want vanaf die datum is deze film in de Nederlandse bioscopen te zien in Engelse en Nederlandse taal.

Hotel Transylvania 2 was not the only new release this weekend, but it was the only one that set box office records. The animated sequel has claimed the all-time highest debut for September with an estimated $47.5 million. Appropriately enough, the former record holder was Hotel Transylvania, which opened on this same frame in 2012. The first film went on to earn $148.3 million in North America and $358.3 million worldwide. In terms of animated titles, Hotel Transylvania doesn't even crack the all-time top 50. But for September - one of the lowest-grossing months of any year - the film, and now its sequel, are genuine blockbusters.
