She's like Umbridge's squib cousin from the Deep South, who somehow ended up becoming more overtly evil. Umbridge just happened to get paid to abuse children after a career in politics. Miss Hattie made it her sole business to abuse and exploit children day and night.
Such a great film. The first two Despicable Me was a breath of fresh air, absolutely hilarious, fun and fresh, and the film that shot Illumination to the animated studios upper rank. Sure, most of their films after would be mediocre at best, but their first try, is an absolute gem.
Hey Dan! I agree, this movie was just so much fun. The characters were all hilarious! The fact that the pyramids were stolen in the beginning, was so funny! 😂
When I was in Afghanistan, one of my soldiers got a copy of this film from his daughter. We sat down and watched. Then I told my men that as soon as I figured out how to order minions through the supply system, I was replacing all of them.
While the first Despicable Me is not as good as 2010’s other animated offerings like Toy Story 3, How to Train Your Dragon, and Tangled, it still has a lot of fun and heart, and it was a good first outing for newcomer studio, Illumination. It's no accident that the franchise rose to success immediately after the Shrek franchise ended its run two months prior.
30:48 Yep, there are actually puppet books. My local library uses them to teach baby's and kids 4 - 8 daily thinks like "how to use kitchen utensils" "ways to effectively use cans" or even "how to properly was your hands, dishes or fruits". Self story There a puppet book that teaches that it's ok to eat what's what's on the fridge on your house 🏠
These films shouldn't be compared to other films. They're so unique unto themselves that they do stand apart. I love this series & these characters. Enjoy the family aspect and the best unusual humor
Fun fact: Both this franchise and Kung Fu Panda are releasing their fourth films next year. It's also been similar gaps since the third movies too (if you don't count Minions 2, that is)
It's funny that at the time, only Ice Age and Shrek were the only animated franchises to make it to four films. Now we have Toy Story, Hotel Transylvania, Despicable Me, and Kung Fu Panda.
Ngl, I didn’t watch Despicable Me until a later time. But then, I got curious and when I finally sat down and watched it, I actually had a good time. I enjoyed the dynamic of Gru and the girls. The moments they share with each other are charming and wholesome. Makes me glad to have checked this film out after putting it off for a while.🙂
In this movie, there is a whiteboard with a description of what the Minions are. They're made from genetically modified kernels of corn. You see it in the background at 30:30. This has, however, been retconned in the Minions movie, where they're shown to basically be the first sentient species on Earth. 🙂
I *loathed* that retcon. They will always be cute lil' corn kernel guys for me. I choose to interpret the "minions" spinoff movies as non-canon bedtime stories made up by Gru for the girls.
Oh yes!!! I know people love the minions and they are funny, but Gru and the girls were always the heart of these movies for me. I love their relationship so much! I’m also one of 3 sisters so I relate to their sister dynamic too. Also, I just wanted to say I subscribed in the past few months and I love your channel! Y’all are definitely the most thoughtful, most balanced, and just the best reactors I have seen on RUclips. Thank you for the great insight and discussions on all of your videos! I’m really enjoying it!
The sheer awe and pride on Nobu’s face when he realized that he guessed right and Gru was actually going to steal the moon. I was proud for you too bro 😭🤚💕
4:02 He may be a “Bad Guy” but he’s not a Bad Person. 35:30 If you guys were blown away with This movie, you should see Ilumination’s newest crown jewel, The Super Mario Bros. Movie!
I would love if you could react to the Tinkerbell movies! I remember loving them as a child and I think the stories in them are rly interesting and deal with important topics. There is many of them, so it could be a fun series!
I really enjoyed watching “Despicable Me 1” with you guys again as I enjoyed it as a kid🔥. I loved the animation, the music, the weapons, the characters and the voices. One of Steve Carrell’s most iconic characters as I adore his Gru voice👍. Julie Andrews was great as Gru’s mother and brought so much grace to this film. The minions are and always will be amazing😂👏👏. It brought back my childhood memories. I loved how Gru is a spy/villain but then three girls Margo, Edith and Agnes change his life as he gets into parenthood. I’ll be looking forward to your reaction to Despicable Me 2. Loved your reaction/analysis, take care and have a good one❤️
It was great watching you all react to this, it's downright hilarious and heartwarming! XD Gru was definitely an unexpected treat. I have a fond memory of seeing it in theaters, people were laughing so hard...Looking forward to the sequel!
1:43 oh there is a short that came with first Despicable Me film. The Minions are just an experiment created from bananas. Also They have their own language called Minionese. Which is mix of languages like Portuguese, Spanish, English, Korean, French and so on.
It's not weird to have a leash on a kid if its prone to run off, like when its hyperactive or having mental disability (which probably Justin haves), you gotta keep an eye on the kid so it doesn't get hurt or getting in trouble.
25:47 I actually won a seal 🦭 plush on a Carnival 🎠 game on my first try (it was my first carnival since I use to live in the country side). But I was playing with it and it got stuck on a rooftop 🏠 and it all happened in the same day🥲
Love this series my little brother has autism and likes to repeat the opening scene over and over so i have watched all of the movies a few times ❤ love the reaction
Hilarious movie ever! The minions were too funny, the casts were awesome, so much dark humor, great songs, and crazy actions. Gru's dance was on point 🎵🎵🎵💥💥💥😢😢😢🤣🤣🤣
My dad always used to hustle tf out of carnival games lol. I've never seen him lose one. One time he even got banned from playing them at that theme park for life bc he won me a few dozen prizes within like an hour😂 idk how he does it, I've only ever won pet goldfish and a rabbit 😅
The illumination world is so different than Disney because everyone is made of rubber and no one can die. It's a fun change. Also this movie is almost exactly 13 years old which is pretty wild. It feels more recent to me too
Very excited on your reaction to the _Despicable Me_ and _Minions_ films. Hopefully you guys you find a way to work out the copyright for this reaction and your future reactions to the next _Despicable Me_ and _Minions_ films considering NBCUniversal/Comcast blocked your _Super Mario Bros. Movie_ reaction and has remained blocked since then.
Yea, it sucks that the mario reaction video got blocked. Universal is just way too strict with copyright. Like RUclipsr Saberspark had his balto trilogy video blocked again and again, like geez 😳
I’ve won a carnival game before, but it was literally just throwing darts at some very small balloons. I ended up winning a Pokémon plushie though, so not a bad day lol
You missed the fact that at the front door as he’s walking in, they show the dog skin rug. It is a blink and you miss it, but the movie is darker than you think simply because of that moment and probably others did. It are meant to playoff a joke and yet.
Something this movie never considers (and neither did I the first time I saw it) is that shrinking the moon does not change it's mass, it just makes it more compact. Ergo, it would still WEIGH the same as it did before. Carrying it around should not work in the slightest lol.
Let's be real: Despicable Me was a more surprisingly solid film that was better than it had any right to be. Yeah, it's not How to Train Your Dragon or Toy Story but Illuminations decided that it didn't have to be while still deciding to make something worth while. It was a solid first step for Illuminations and I'm glad they're getting some decent stuff out into the world of animation.
Haha I finally got around to watching this reaction. These movies definitely aren’t my first choice for a movie to watch but I like them enough to watch them more than once. They’re very unique. Kinda fresh.
Two things: First I don’t know if anyone mentioned this but Gru compared her to a donkey in Spanish. Second I won a huge Chococat plush at a fair in those water gun games. Still have it. Won it in 2015
It is very interesting to see your joint reaction to the films Batman Unlimited: Animal Instincts and Batman Unlimited: Monster Mayhem. These are cool movies 👍👍👍
I've won a carnival game once, and it was shockingly the bottle ring toss game. I got a giant Clarice stuffed toy from Rudolph the Red Nosed Ran dear out of it.
i don’t think i liked any of the other movies in this franchise lol. but despicable me as a stand-alone movie is one of the best kids movies of all time imo. i always forget how good it is 😭
The amount of times I’ve seen this movie since it came out is crazy, but it’s still so funny to me every single time The girls are so cute, and Vector is a literal menace 💀
Since you guys just entered illumination films territory I highly recommend you guys do the sing films in the future! There are mixed opinions on this film, but if anything they are a fun time!
The orphanage lady mimics Delores umbridge from Harry Potter super well
Oh my gosh, I never even noticed that. You're so right! 😂
Her voice actor plays Lucy in the sequels.
She's like Umbridge's squib cousin from the Deep South, who somehow ended up becoming more overtly evil.
Umbridge just happened to get paid to abuse children after a career in politics. Miss Hattie made it her sole business to abuse and exploit children day and night.
Fun fact:
The minions actually have their own language and it's a mix of many languages according to the creator
as a spanish speaker, quite a bit of it is fully intelligible as spanish lol. “para ti” is one example
There’s even a dictionary.
That explains why they occasionally speak English

Don't forget Megamind. Some critics at the time liked this film more than that one 🤔.

@@Aiveq No it wasn't. 2 was as good as 1 if not better and the third one was OK too. I can't wait for the fourth movie!
9:26 I never noticed the detail of Gru's pupil shrinking because he's looking at the light of the laser
Or out of fear.

this gotta be one of the funniest and heartwarming movies out there! my favorite line is "He's so fluffy, I'm gonna die!" 😂😂😂
Brilliantly constructed film. And then the heartwarming scene at the end where he made fun of himself to make them laugh. Terrific!!

My Spanish class watched this one day because Gru said El Burro one time 😅
I won a carnival shooting game once but my dad taught me how to shoot a rifle at a young age as he was in military
This movie has always and will always be a classic ❤️

The first 2 movies are, to this day, such a fun treat. The other movies are inoffensive enough, but they just don't hold a candle to these two.
Hilarious movie ever! The minions were too funny, the casts were awesome, so much dark humor, great songs, and crazy actions. Gru's dance was on point
🎵🎵🎵💥💥💥😢😢😢🤣🤣🤣
I prefer Megamind, but Despicable definitely has its greatness. Vector was so great

A great way to watch this movie on a Father's Day Week

Hopefully you guys you find a way to work out the copyright for this reaction and your future reactions to the next _Despicable Me_ and _Minions_ films considering NBCUniversal/Comcast blocked your _Super Mario Bros.

Yea, it sucks that the mario reaction video got blocked. Universal is just way too strict with copyright. Like RUclipsr Saberspark had his balto trilogy video blocked again and again, like geez 😳
One of the funniest animated action comedy movies ever made!
I love how you guys were enjoying this movie itself, I could see the pure enjoyment
I would love to see you guys wear costumes for the last movie in the series and I hope you choose your favorite characters.
They made the Three Little Kittens book for real after the movie. I read it many times to my daughter.
The original Three Little Kittens was first published in 1942. The first puppet one I remember from my childhood late 70s early 80s. 😊
I’ve won a carnival game before, but it was literally just throwing darts at some very small balloons.
I ended up winning a Pokémon plushie though, so not a bad day lol
Hope you continue the franchise! Great reactions!
I hope they do, this is one of the best franchises.
I'm so excited for this. My favorite animated movie ❤
Despicable Me is definitely a good movie especially the minions are hilarious definitely recommend watching Despicable Me 2
I' like his line Like oh You gotta Be pulling My Leg not Oh you gotta be kidding me it's hilarious, Yeah illumination Entertainment Is Funny Movie 🤣
I actually have that book. I bought it for my son in 2015. I don’t know if they still make it, but it’s super cute.
From where did the Minions come ? Answers to be found in the Minion Movie. Glad your doing 'Despicable Me 2' it's even better.
I love your reactions! So fun but you guys always get the deeper meaning behind things.
Speaking of Illumination movies, is there any chance you can reupload your reaction to The Super Mario Bros. Movie?
You missed the fact that at the front door as he’s walking in, they show the dog skin rug. It is a blink and you miss it, but the movie is darker than you think simply because of that moment and probably others did. It are meant to playoff a joke and yet.
However old this movie is, I'm still perplexed how the least consequential characters in the entire film are the ones who got a spin-off.
This has two direct sequels and two spinoff films that focus on the Minions
Something this movie never considers (and neither did I the first time I saw it) is that shrinking the moon does not change it's mass, it just makes it more compact. Ergo, it would still WEIGH the same as it did before. Carrying it around should not work in the slightest lol.

Today is Jurassic Park 30 anniversary
I've seen people win carnival games and then get banned from playing them cuz they could win easily
the minion language is a mix of a few different language and everytime i recognize a word i feel like i tapped into a multiverse
I won a teddy bear at one of those fill up the clown's mouth with water games when i was a kid.
I love this mov-[FREEZE RAY!] :P
Have you guys really never seen it? It's such a wholesome franchise
I absolutely love your reactions I watch them everyday ❤

CURSE YOU TINY TOILET
The best thing that come out of this is that one Halloween party vd
Just was rewatching some of your videos and just wanted to watch this, I just know saw 2 hours ago. KEEP DOING THESE THINGS, I love these vids man!
I’ve actually won the ring toss one time and it took like an hour before they gave my gift because they clearly haven’t gotten too many winners💀
Two things:
First I don’t know if anyone mentioned this but Gru compared her to a donkey in Spanish.
Second I won a huge Chococat plush at a fair in those water gun games. Still have it. Won it in 2015

“What agnes?”
“We’re out of milk”
He Tipped with the change he got back from noney he didn't pay. He kept the bills tipped the change.
It’s been 13 years since, I first saw despicable me as a teenager.
Another one of my favorite childhood movies
The amount of times I’ve seen this movie since it came out is crazy, but it’s still so funny to me every single time
The girls are so cute, and Vector is a literal menace 💀
Illumination’s first movie, and the only one they put any actual care into that resulted in a good movie.
Fun fact the main menu had mini games you could play as well
Vector crime oh yeah
I love all Despicable me films because of the minions.
Oh I've really been looking forward to seeing you do these films
Whack-a-mole I'd usually the prize winner or if your strong enough the hammer bell
I won a large snake 🐍
First one is a childhood favorite of mine
Sing is a great illumination movie! Both the first and second
Yep, it was 3D. The whole series was on 3D Blu-Ray, too.
They are the best movie I ever watch and it amazing for you guys to watch it tho.
Since you guys just entered illumination films territory I highly recommend you guys do the sing films in the future! There are mixed opinions on this film, but if anything they are a fun time!
I do hope you guys get around to the Sing franchise, such fun movies, I personally like the 2nd one more
There are 3 Despicable me movies and 1 Minions movie for now. Hope you will watch them all!!
it was confirmed kyle's half pirahna

Vector 2 great reference Because THERE is a part 2
My fan fiction? Minions are Twinkies that has somehow became sentient.
Such a great film for Father’s Day! 🤗
I can’t wait for you to watch the 2nd film
Margo shirt has the lorax on it underneath our jacket
Great movie, Gru was always best as a villain
As a villain Gru should have killed the girls after they did what they were supposed to.
I love this movie

So unique, keep up the great work 🔥
