HEADS UP! This video got blocked worldwide so I had to remove a few very short parts at 1:06 and 1:14, hence the abrupt edits. They were basically just talking about the similarities between Megamind and Despicable Me. Sorry for the inconvenience!
Lol big rip
oof
Why did it get blocked? You not allowed to talk about Despicable Me lmao?
Funny thing, I randomly decided to watch this again
Big oof
"As a kid..." Didn't Despicable Me come out like 3 years ago? *Checks Google* Oh.....
HELP I'M GETTING OLD AND SCARED
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
That's me with anything that happened from a minimum of 2 months to a maximum of eternity
A weeb that is a bit crazy at times, i’m sorry it’s been a WHAT??? A DECADE?? oh my god didn’t it literally come out a few years ago at max? i...am beyond shocked.
holy crap, 2010? thats... something.
The thing I like about how Megamind tries to make the city a better place by cleaning streets etc. is that he still keeps his secret identity. Meaning Roxanne has no idea he's the one who did it. He doesn't do it to impress her and win relationship points. He genuilly wants to make her happy and doesn't want anything in return. Another difference beetwen him and Hal
Agreed.
Agreed.
Agreed
You could say he want her happiness in return. But that's a genuine thing.

Next: Why Megamind Vs The Doom Syndicate is a Subversive Failure
edit: it's a cinematic calamity not a subversive failure as said by icedonot fr
😂
XD
or “ subversive masterpiece of a FAILURE
"it's like a little jokey joke, they took my favorite franchise in film history aaand they ruined it" *insert frustrated schaffrillas not tomatoa image*
Subversive?
Honestly I'm glad that this film didn't make much of an impact when it came out. Otherwise we'd be seeing Megamind 5 where Metroman's brother comes to Metro City to kill Megamind but his kids come to save him with the power of love and fart jokes. Megamind can stay as an incredible film without the over saturation of Hollywood.
Ricky Williams I get what you’re saying but the Kung fu panda and how to train your dragon series were successful but each sequel felt necessary
I’m happy that the studio didn’t milk megamind but I wished it had a chance to be a great franchise
@@joeallen8139 I dont agree,because I dont know about How to train blabla but Kung Fu Panda was supposed to be a Franchise from the Beginning.5 Movies to be exact.Where Megamind was and is supposed to be stand-alone movie and "thanks" to its abstinent Success,it is.Your wish of a Franchise is totally understanble but I dont think,there could have been a Franchise to be greatly expanded upon.
Poké- Champ a Universe full of super hero aliens where only 2 are on earth?? Yeah totally no room for a franchise to develop 😢
Do not underestimate fart jokes.
I live in hollywood, I completely agree with this. Hollywood sees a succesful movie and goes : haha profits go kaching
Funny how Megamind doesn’t have a proper name, he’s just given a name a villain would have.
to be fair, metroman doesnt have a real name either. this just shows how they were pushed into roles right from the beginning without their own sense of identity.

his name? richard
You know, I always thought Megamind should get a sequel… I’m quickly regretting that mindset
Megamind was one of the few movies in which a sequel would never live up to the quality and hype of the first movie. DreamWorks has proven me right.
(also a better plot would be Megamind gets arrested by his world's version of the Justice League cuz while he is now good, the heroes refuse to believe this since he 1] "Killed" Metroman, 2] took over the city, and 3] created another villain to make himself look good {that's what the heroes think at least}. And so he has to prove himself yadda yadda yadda and the heroes now trust him and he is accepted for who he now is but that is basically the same plot as the first movie.)
I am currently writing a rewriting of the plot of alternate dimension version of Megamind 2, nicknamed Megamind 2: Atonement (Name is WIP).
@@sir_cabbage1170 Blame peacock tbh
@beasthuntermohit567 right. DreamWorks input must've been very minimal cuz all of their works are decently animated and have good plots. Although DreamWorks allowing Peacock to make a Megamind sequel (MegaMid lmao) is the equivalent of letting your little brother use your controller only to find it's been smashed to bits cuz the idiot got mad and chucked it into the wall.

Some of you may die, which is a sacrifice I am willing to make....
It really frustrates when people lump in Megamind and Beauty and the beast with an “I CAN CHANGE HIM” movie.
Because what people often forget is that Belle and Roxanne NEVER SET OUT TO CHANGE THE GUY, the guy just change because of positive reinforcement and the genuine desire to be better, In this essay I will....
Here’s the thing, belle stays with the beast and learns to love him, but megamind begins to hate being a villain on his own, and we see it’s belonging and connections he strives for, not evil
Please finish the essay. i want to read it all
yes
op where’s the rest of the essay
Oc give us the essay
One thing I noticed in the movie is how Megamind and Metroman don't have real names. Only Tighten/Titan does because he used to be Hal, it's like Megamind was born to be Megamind and Metroman was born to be Metroman. It's subtle and great imo.
@Joshua Kelly and I think that what hurts more. Metroman had a name, but because of the city’s expectation he either abandoned that name or the city simply forgot what his name is.
@Joshua Kelly definitely
Except Megamind states he chose his name.
Metroman’s name is chad chadson
His name in the script is Wayne Scott. Like wainscoting, the architectural term. which i find endlessly funny LMAO
then everything changed when megamind 2 attacked
lmao
Only will ferral, could solve the problem, but when the movie needed him the most, he vanished

@@Givemeabearhug It's the closest thing we have to a canon sequel
at this point, the only way megamind 2 can be good is if the ending twist is that the entire movie was just metro man's first film as part of his new hobby to try and make movies, and the actual Megamind and Roxanne (played by their actual voice actors) are stunned in horror.
10 out of 10 would watch
THIS SHOULD BE REAL
You are only further proving the connection between Metroman and Markiplier.
Metroman: Sooooo... What do you think?
Roxanne, whispering: We need to let him down gently, it'd break his heart if we told him how bad it is.
Megamind, whispering back: You know he has super hearing right?
@@InevitableOption-ic2vx well that didn't age too well
Fun fact about Megamind: Roxanne's dress throughout the movie resembled her trust to Megamind. At the start is was red, which is the contrasting colour to blue which meant she didn't care about him. In the middle it was purple, showing that she started to trust him a little. And at the end, her dress was blue, which was also when Roxanne cared for Megamind and liked him.
It's a cool Easter egg that everyone knows about but I'm sharing it again
Cinemawins too much?
Hail yeahhh!!
You made one huge mistake blue isn't the opposite of red, blue is the opposite of orange

Someone should be turn into a dehydrated cube
I think it’s better to leave megamind untouched, we don’t want it ruined
Lullebye preach
Some Guy Down the Street Megamind is better as a single movie. If it got sequels, it would have ruined the franchise, similar to what happened to Despicable Me.
I wish it weren't so underrated but I don't think it ever needs a sequel. The way it ended feels like that's all we really needed.
Megamind is, in my opinion, the most underrated Dreamworks movie ever.
Yep

Watching this after the new Peacock Megamind trailer dropped hurts to watch. This did NOT need a sequel and should’ve stayed the way it was.

As an English person, I can confirm that the Queen does not exist.
She's been a hologram for years. Trust me, I'm an expert.
I can second this. She died years ago but the country just couldn't let go.
How else could she be immor- ohhh this line aged well
the queen is a lizard, she's Eve from the ribs, she guides the world, as she cannot leave it in any physical way. it is her curse to colonise the galaxy before returning to the ashes she came from.
yup this is true
She died January fifth. Now, which January fifth, nobody knows for sure
I just realized that Metroman in the final act actually *knew* more about Megamind than he did anyone else. Like you said, he sees people as props, but not Megamind. He knows that like himself, Megamind didn’t have a choice in what he was, he was given the role of villain by everyone else, and in the end, Megamind might’ve actually been one of the two only people Metroman ever would’ve had as a true friend. I actually love this way more now
And Metroman's last line - "Way to go little buddy, I know you had it it you."
Metroman can relate to Megamind in a way. So thats how it is.

@@williamwhitehouse8741Oh sweet summer child.. Just concern yourself with watching Button of Ddom, the REAL sequel/ 15 min short that's on YT.
The "sequel" is gonna be on Peacock March 9th or something; it has the gd animation quality of those old Dreamworks Nicktoons shows/looks much cheaper than it should, doesn't have the og VAs returning to reprise their roles, & even retcons a couple of things -yes, this is all just in 1 trailer. I plead for mercy from Peacock that the show they're teasing is at least a kind of Clone Wars situation where the movie was ass but the show gets better & better, but I doubt it.
MatPat's gonna leave the spotlight, Hazbin Hotel's controversies (valid or not) have been nuts already, & now this when it hasn't even been 1/4 of the year yet? We're in the endgame now.

@@wisco9er536 Okay but technically that would mean watching absolutely every movie that is ever released.
@@Nyerguds Not necessarily. People tend to see a movie, think it looks interesting, but then opt not to go see it based on the critic reviews, meaning that if those reviews are stupid they've missed out on a movie they would've enjoyed
@@justcallmeteacup4711 Then you're still just judging it by its promotional material, though.
I also really like how Roxanne is never really afraid of Megamind. When Megamind kidnaps her and tries to scare her, their exchange is playful, even flirty. But when Hal kidnaps her, she is genuinely terrified of him. It's because Roxanne knew that everything that Megamind did was nothing but performative. She knew that he would never hurt her- She was never in any real danger, it was understood that all he really wanted to do was lure Metroman out and fight him. Hal's behaviour showed little regard for her safety or her desires- stalking her to her home, spying on her through the window, clumsily throwing her around and then claiming to have "saved" her.
I personally think the reason she wasn't afraid of Mega-Mind is because she believed that Metro-Man will come and save her before Mega-Mind gets the chance to hurt her, and that the kidnapping was by now just part of the hero/villain routine.
Not only that but when Mega-Mind does take over the city, she does seem to be genuinely concerned about what he's about to do...
But that's just my personal opinion
@@sugilite2963 I believe it's more because Metroman was Megamind's obsession. Him disappearing created a void in him that she didn't know what it would be filled with. So when Mega-Mind takes over the city he's become far more unpredictable, hence her concern. Of course he ends up filling that void with Roxanne which she definitely wasn't going to predict.
I know right thats what the movie was trying to say eh?
@@slimeplort I'm not entirely sure if what Roxanne experienced after Megamind won was actually fear, honestly. Because rather than being afraid, she seemed to be grieving and angry, and she chides Megamind rather than expressing that she was afraid. If she was afraid, her tone when she said "'Are you ready to be a slave army', What You Need To Know" would've carried more severity than the exasperation she expressed. I don't think anyone was ever expecting Megamind to succeed - least of all himself. And I think the people of Metro City knew that. Megamind was right when she said that the primary difference between him and Tighten was "Presentation", because Presentation was Megamind's primary superpower. His last fight with Metroman was fraught with performative action, luring Metroman to a fake observatory, engaging in banter to distract him while his latest -inator was setting up (well, he tried), giving Roxanne empty threats to project the illusion of danger so that Metroman would show up. He'd never actually hurt Metroman, right until he decided to fake his death. Even directly after Metroman was presumed dead, the way that Roxanne asked Megamind "What are you going to do with all of us" wasn't fearful, but annoyed. I don't think Roxanne was ever afraid of Megamind, she was rightfully angry, because she never thought he would go that far. Because as Megamind said himself, murder wasn't part of the play, or more specifically, "That's not how you play the game".
Besides she knew that Metro Man would always saved her as no matter what happens Metro Man would always easily defeat Megamind. They done this once every week their entire lives.
I am so glad that Megamind is only a single movie and an additional Animated short... I am so glad there is no Megamind 2 or a planned animated series because it just works better as just the first 2
..
Might as well forget about that abomination of a sequel they released
I just decided to watch this video after watching your video on Megamind 2. The differences are DRASTIC
He ain't even scream that loud in the mario kart 8 ranking
The scene in Metroman's secret hideout shows, Metroman knew that Megamind is not actually evil. Most of the fights between Megamind and Metroman are just him going out with his friend to play.
*Now that’s sad*
Idk if i should find this adorable or very sad
Why didnt he just talk him out about it then?
1: it started out as actual hostile rivalry and only slowly grew into friendship. He said it himself, he never had a choice. And Megamind was the only Villain who actually required him to take action, while all other villains were easily handled by the normal police.
2: Metroman was in pretty much the same situation. Megamind was the only person who didn't see him as a supreme being, the only person who could even attempt (or even actually was interested in attempting) to be his equal. He was like a god stomping through a city made of paper mash. With Megamind, he was able to actually relax a bit.
Metroman never talked Megamind out of being a villain because it wasn't that kind of friendship. It was a rivalry, they were codependent in each other fulfilling their role. And Metroman even more so than Megamind. Megamind was able to just kick back and not do anything evil if he so chose, Metroman did not have that freedom. He needed Megamind to be his villain.

I think it's unfair calling Minion just an enabler. Remember: he's in the exact same situation as Megamind. And he also had to come to the realisation that being evil wasn't the thing bringing him joy before he left. He just liked spending time with his one and only friend.

Great point btw
i think by enabler he was talking about how although minion was a close friend, both of them had the same end goal, he was still enabling his faux villainy which would mean even if he was acknowledged as a person by minion, it would be a net zero since both of them still act like being bad is good, even if they both don't personally agree with the thought.
Think about this. Metroman has super speed. He didn't have to get caught when Megamind and Roxy find him in his lair. That was a choice. I think he wanted to come clean to the people who were actually impacted by his decision. He describes everything they did as a silly charade so he knew he was always playing a part just like he knew Megamind was playing his part as well. He got out and wanted to show Megamind he had a way out too.
I think he was more like "oh shit don't want to see me, better be quiet"
@@fatsock6129 I'd like to think that Mobil has the right idea. But your's is just as valid and possible given his traits...
He didn't necessarily have anywhere to run, either.
But maybe if he'd have used his super speed he would've caused a lot of noise. So they wouldn't have seen him, but they would've heard that there was someone there and would've investigated further and eventually figured out who lived there.
@@SEB1991SEB Yeah, and when you're scared or shocked, you sometimes stop moving.
A little detail that really stands out to me is the way the movie uses random babies in the crowd. At the beginning of the movie, they giggle with glee during Metroman’s presentation, even as he was recklessly tossing them through the air. Meanwhile as soon as Megamind appears, they begin to cry. It even happens again in the restaurant, as if they’re trained reflexively react with fear at the mere sight of him. It’s an exaggerated and simplified view of what the city populace think of each individual.
But then toward the end( 22:45 ), when Roxanne reveals Megamind to the crowd after he scared Titan off, a baby in the crowd starts to cry, but then quickly stops, looking surprised. Even the baby is questioning its fear reflex after what just happened, because the city is in disbelief that this “villain” could’ve been responsible for saving them. It’s a simple thing, but I think it’s a lovely bit of symbolism the movie employs!

You gotta admire the small things too, like how Roxanne’s dress is red at the beginning, being the opposite colour to megamind’s blue. In the middle as she warms up to him, she wears purple and at the end she wears blue to match.
Actually orange is the opposite of blue. Contrasting Megamind's blue and black with Tighten's orange and white
(Hayden Rodriguez) Well, if you look at the colors of light, Red-Green-Blue, the opposite of cyan (light blue, the color Megamind is) is red.

They captured Hals insecurity the best in the moment of him angrily approaching her on top of the building leaving her less space to stand on, like a physical representation of the person self-victimizing themselves in words while continuing to push your boundaries.

Metroman is a good person, and he spent YEARS being miserable so others can be happy. It is unfair to ask him to stop being an individual because Society wants him to. I love this movie bc it tells you just because you are good at something you don't NEED to make it your life, and bc you are not great at something at first doesn't mean you can't do it of you work at it.
That's the main problem I have with superheroes. Too much rely on them. If they fail, if they stop, if they start to act badly, "ordinary citizens" are helpless. The same applies to politicians. The chief of a government has too much power and responsibilities in tons of countries. If they fail, or if they start to act badly or for their own interests, which they can and certainly do, people can't do anything. When they fail, you'll always find people to say "Look at how many things s·he has to think, it's normal if s·he fails sometimes." Yes. Maybe that's the problem. This one person has too many things to think about to do it properly.
In the case of superheroes, it's even worse because they often chose to do that without asking anyone and without following any law or rule that states what they sould or should not do.
@@sasori2425 its also *sort of* Vandal Savage's rhetoric in Young Justice, albeit with a much darker course of action following the same fundamental idea.
Savage looks at Earth, a place he has lived since the dawn of mankind (remember he's literally Cain from Cain and Abel), and he sees is full of Super Heroes that stiffle the growth of the general population. Ordinary civilians, hell even law enforcement, frequently rely on heroes to coddle them (I believe "coddle" is even a word he uses in the show) and keep them from growing strong. Which is why he wants to take control of the Justice League and accelerate Earth to the forefront of the galaxy.
Lex, like you said, fears Superman turning evil. But he also takes issue with Superman in his current form: unchecked and uncheckable to do whatever he wants. Even if he always uses that unlimited power to do good, he shouldn't have it in the first place, and he shouldn't be the sole arbiter of his own actions. Lex is evil, he's a war profiteering megalomaniac who has doubtless caused--however indirectly--the deaths of millions. But he plays by rules, he has to move his bishops diagonally, he has to solve problems and navigate complicated sitations in order to succeed in his goals. Superman faces 0 opposition that he can't punch through, and that's the problem.
Periodht
Still in that instance it is so completely stupid why he has the ability to help stop a super villain from destroying the city and doesn't do anything. That's just selfish and irresponsible.
And at the end, he is genuinely happy for megamind which shows alot of growth from when he was a kid
I just watched his megamind 2 video and I needed a mind cleanser so I'm rewatching this one
watching the megamind 2 video immediately after this one is a wild experience
Also, another thing that shows Megamind true nature is him ruling the city. Most villains will continue to expand their power base and influence, enforcing strict laws to further ones own safety and power. Megamind, just gets bored. He doesn't seek more power, or to subjugate the city's citizens. He simply goes along for the ride.
Yes, to know a person's true nature you give him power.
Especially considering everyone, especially Roxanne, thought they were going to be part of his slave army.

Megamind is an adult romcom written for adults that happens to be animated and family-friendly.
Talking factual Rocksan did have compassion for Hal and the way he says she doesn't want anything to do with me. He just right her of. And tries to talk to him again. He says so finally come to your senses but it's too late. And only take her captive to Drew out Megamind. he flat out doesn't want her.

Greetings, internet traveler. You obviously came back to lay down in an ocean of comforting nostalgia after the trailer of Megamind 2. Take it easy, enjoy the vid and may you stay safe in life.

@@kaputt_jay3873I have indeed heard that the predictions came true and it was just the worst of the worst. I've comforted myself by watching Megamind v.s the button of doom. The REAL megamind 2.
man, it would be crazy if they made a sequel and it was really bad or something
its a good thing that never existed
I feel like Hal’s voice acting being meh is perfect. It fits his character and shows he wasn’t some big shot until very recently.
[[Roxanne]]! ARE YOU WATCHING?!

I knew it-

@@Hessonite_Dragon_Helen
😳😳😳😳😳
Yeah he sucks at being both a hero, a nice guy, and a villain. Still it is pretty indicative of the big "hiring celebrities instead of voice actors" shtick that modern animated features suffer from. Will Ferrel and Tina Fey are fine enough at both that it doesn't bother me in this case but Jonah Hill is clearly not doing a great job.
I always found it interesting that Hal bares a close resemblance to Jonah Hill and that is why it sounds so perfect
(When Megamind threatens the crowd that tries to hug him)
Roxanne: "Sorry, sorry, he's just not used to positive feedback."
That made my heart ache...
Dude, Megamind's exactly like me XD
Same but it also made me laugh
I started crying
It was one of those lines that can make you laugh but feel bad at the same time and I love it
It was funny and sad at the same time
One of my core memories is playing a Megamind fighting game on the wii while my parents talked to a social worker to adopt my sisters. Hard to believe that was over a decade ago now.
First date idea: Watch this movie. If your date sympathizes with Hal even a little bit, they're not a keeper.
Thats genious
Somehow, my hesitant to reply and the lack of replies is telling.
Wait, why do I sympathize with Hal?
@@CowboyLuigi 🤨
This idea is perfection
_Hehehe_
The fact that Metroman speaks to Megamind as a friend instead of rejecting him when they reunite in the school shows that he knows that he saw Megamind as a fellow human.
But they’re not human.
@@charadreemur8884 It meant that even if Megamind is an alien, Metro Man treated him that he's like a human being too and Megamind should be treated with care and love too like other humans.

@@worldssmallestdestron7819 ooooh

A neat detail no one mentions is how Metroman's upbringing seems to imply that while his mother was there for him, his dad was distant, which you can see by him being unfazed at his adopted son flew around their living room. Megamind, however, had a surrogate family inside the prison that while they distorted his morality and taught him to be bad, they all seemed to genuinely care about him and were raising him as their own.
Our baby is flying!
Only the best for you darling!
Shiiieet, I can imagine metro man coming home every day and telling his adoptive father about his day and how he impressed his class, can shoot lasers out of his eyes, hell even that dodge ball game against "the evil classmate" and he just didn't care. And the only validation he got was from his class and his mother bleeding into his need to be a super hero.
@@Frazer2 then megamind does the same thing and everyone celebrated
One of the prisoners also asked if they could keep him! Which was a cute detail
I genuinely think we could talk about this movie forever
coming here after the atrocity that was the megamind vs the doom syndicate trailer
Coming back here after seeing the atrocity that is megamind 2
"Do you really think that I would EVER be with you?"
"....No..."
God, the power of that moment really broke me.
It becomes even more powerful when you realize that she said the same thing to Hal. The different reactions she gets just shows how different the core values and emotions of the two characters were. One reacted in anger as he felt he was entitled to her because now that he had powers he should have everything she wanted. One reacts with sadness and acceptance because in his mind hes never been worthy of acceptance so to him its no surprise but he could have easily acted with anger but doesn't.
1000th like
Relatable, have a nice day.
isn't this moment ruined since he got into a relationship with her at the end?
PsychoKing JP Not exactly. Sure it’s kind of cheesy but that’s not really a bad thing. Megamind singlehandedly saved the city from Titan. I’d say that’s a pretty good way to redeem yourself to the point of acceptance again.
The silver lining is you can call this movie CRIMINALLY UNDERRATED and it's a beautiful pun
You're going to jail for that pun... Could you get Megamind's autograph for me?

I love the subtle detail of Roxanne's clothes starting off red, then throughout the movie becoming lighter and lighter as she begins to warm up to Megamind. That's brilliant visual,storytelling right there.
Bluer, not lighter
Red when she’s completely against Megamind, purple when she begins to have conflicted feelings about him and they have their fight, and blue when she completely accepts and supports him at the end
