    Honestly the first movie was legitimately good. Not Pixar good or anything, but it was a decent heartwarming kids film. But then Illumination saw how much money they could make and ripped the heart of the Despicable Me series, leaving only minions, minions, and more minions.

    I hate what happened to this franchise. A series that started off a genuine breath of fresh air with a very hilarious and heartwarming movie (and even some legitimately great action sequences), quickly went downhill once they realized that their target audience literally only cared about Minions doing funny things.

      Older people were expected to have spouses to have kids with, not be friends with. Men and women were pushed into separate hobbies, clubs, etc, and shamed more for divorce if it was even legal where they were. People wound up trapped with those they didn't have anything in common with, and women especially we're unhappy because most had to work outside the home but then also do all the chores in the home. So they complained and men called them nags and it was all very bad for everyone.

    When I tell you my best friend was OBSESSED with minions in elementary school! Like I don’t even know why and I didn’t back then but she was absolutely crazy. She owned so many minions shirts, and she used to wear this outfit like every day that was just a yellow minions top with a blue skirt because it “made her look like a girl minion”, she dressed up like a minion for Halloween, owned every stuffed animal, liked Universal Studios more than Disneyland because there was a minions ride, she was crazy! I can confirm that we are now juniors in high school and she is no longer obsessed with minions but you can still see remnants of her minion obsession scattered around her house. I literally saw the midnight (more like 9:00 but it’s a kids movie) premiere of the minions movie with her, like I had to stand in a long ass line to see the minions movie at my bedtime!
    She used to send me rants about people who hated the minions. There was that one girl on RUclips who made a video about how the minions are ruining her life and my best friend cried about it. I didn’t know it then but I was living in the worst timeline.

    I really hate how this franchise went from a genuinely sweet plot and quirky characters to - *"MINION: THE MERCHANDISE."* because it makes me angry that I skipped out on Megamind - it's the same plot, but less marketable.
    Also, Despicable Me 1 already gave us a cooler backstory for the Minions: they were genetically modified popcorn kernels. So imagine my shock when the spinoff *doesn't* go with that and have a plot where Gru tries out 400 different microwaved things before settling on kernels while the girls try to help him.

    Despicable Me: Fine film, funny and touching at some times. 🙂 I've watched various times and I've enjoyed all of them, tbh. Not the best I've seen, though.
    Despicable Me 2: Eh, didn't live up to the original, but well, it's still watchable and standable.
    Minions: un-funny, irritating characters (not just the bloody Minions), lots of badly integrated stereotypes (I don't mind nation stereotypes if it adds something to the plot and it's not there just to shame or make fun of the people of that country for free, as in this case) and a stupid plot. I want those 90 minutes of my life back. 🥺
    Despicable Me 3: watched the trailer and made the wise decidion not to watch it. Just from the trailer, it looked plainly stupid and cliché.

    So, in Poland Despicable Me isn't called that (I guess if it was translated it would kinda suck?), instead it's called How to Steal the Moon. This makes sense because they didn't really expect the sequels. However because of that when the sequels came, they had to be called something else so they went all in with the Minions. 2nd movie is called "Minions Make Trouble" (in the literal translation) and the 3rd one is literally called "Gru, Dru and the Minions". The Minions were so famous that they literally shoe-horned them in both titles.
    Luckily, they didn't have to do anything for the Minions Movie because Ilumination did it for them

    I actually really enjoy the first two. The OG I found had a lot more heart but I found 2 to be more laugh-out-loud funny, and I thought what they did with the minions was actually pretty interesting-and just in general I liked how they challenged Gru’s new status quo. Minions and 3 were both underwhelming though. If I were writing Despicable Me 4, I’d do a small time skip and then make the story about Gru, Lucy and the Girls all embracing villainy together after they realize that’s where Gru belongs. Gru bring a hero just doesn’t sit right with me. Actually, I am excited for minions 2 (weirdly) purely because it can explore what made Gru an interesting protagonist and by extension Despicable Me an interesting series in the first place.

    Honestly, Seamus's argument about the second movie being a lot better "outside of the minion parts" made me a little upset. Like, yeah, I really like Seamus's content, but saying the second movie was as good or better, is just an insult to me. Because I really loved the angle the first movie went to where Gru is the girls' dad by the end. Like, that is so great for single fathers, which deserve more appreciation! But then the second movie is all "Oh no! Agnes can't function properly without a motherly figure and Gru is holding them back if he doesn't get a partner!" Like, what? Why are single fathers not allowed to be a thing, especially because the first movie directly shows that Gru is a good father once he starts caring about the girls, and he doesn't need a partner to help take care of them.

    I feel dumb saying this, but these are like some of the most nostalgic movies for me (well, the first two are). I watched them so much when I was a kid and was pretty much obsessed with them (I can confirm that when you’re a kid the minions seem funnier), and I legitimately think those first two still hold up. Like, I rewatched them a few months ago and found myself genuinely invested and laughing! But I think it was when I saw Despicable Me 3 that it really hit me- the first two are the only good ones, and they’re milking this franchise into oblivion. It’s almost tragic, because they could’ve kept better standards of quality and this might not have happened.
