I Want a Despicable Minion or 2 or 3 or a Bagillion! In 3D.

Starring the Voices of… Steve Carell, Jason Segel, and JULIE ANDREWS!!!

Despicable Me is now officially my favorite movie of 2010! Although How to Train Your Dragon was awesome, funny, and amazing, it twas the minions and the cute, funny, opinionated girls that overpowered the awesomeness of the dragons. In essence Despicable Me took the best movie trophy from DreamWorks Animation’s How to Train Your Dragon and brought it home to Illumination Entertainment.

I will now display examples of the minion’s amazingness.

And now an example of the cute awesomeness of Agnes (the youngest girl).Slightly altered to sound like a testosterone injected puffball of cuteness.

In Despicable Me the combination of strangeness (the minions) and normality (the girls) blends together to create splendid comedic gold. The plot moves quickly and, although the movie is almost 1hr 45min, it does not feel long because of the constant slapstick comedy of the minions. Adding to the plot are the obvious differences between the static and dynamic characters, a quality which most modern movies lack. The main character, Gru, obviously changes throughout the movie while the protagonist, Vector, remains unchanged throughout. It is disappointing to note though that the voice acting done by Carell, Segel, Queen Andrews, and many more funny/great actors did not really add anything to the movie. What made the movie were the minions and the voice acting done by the girls.

Also, from now on all toys will be known as papoys!
