I couldn’t feel much emotion and I had thoughts of revenge and the other things. But God saved me, he gave me the people in my life and he showed himself to me. Even in my darkest days he was there with me, he never left me. One day while I was in bed I started to pray with my hand go the sky and I felt something holding my hand. At that very moment I it was him. I repent of all of the sins I have committed. I am ready to begin a new life with him. There is still time go repent love one another and believe in Christ for he will forgive you❤️ He helped me in hard and he will help you too:). Just pray!

Can we talk about how actual voice acting, like what Steve Carell does for Gru or like literally any character Alan Tudyk does, is like a dying art. Like my family used to be so impressed with me because I could figure out voice actors even when they didn’t sound like themselves, without seeing the credits. Now it’s like they don’t even have to voice act. You just know what already famous celeb it is because they just use their normal voice, and end up getting paid more than the actual voice actors who have been forced into side character roles. Steve Carrell actually studied and worked on Gru with his kids. He did like a bunch of accents to see which one they thought was the most funny and that’s what he ended up using. It’s sad that approach is becoming obsolete.

This has always been a conflicting viewpoint of mine honestly. On the one hand it's always AMAZING to hear a VA change their entire voice and persona on a dime. I use Mark Hamill as my example. If you saw Star Wars you know his voice. If you like Batman you like his Joker. If you're an Avatar fan you know his Fire Lord Ozi. All 3 voices are unique and distinct and its amazing! Then on the other hand you have people with unique voices like Dante Basco. His voice was PERFECT for Prince Zuko, anyone else wouldn't have had the same effect with the voice portrayal. Yet he is just talking, same when he plays Jake in American Dragon. Yet it works. Even the voice of Fry from Futureama is using his talking voice. On the one hand I do miss the "people of 1000 voices" but I'm also glad to hear genuine unique voices adding to animated worlds. I just wish they could live together instead of a studio going "we have a movie about a pair of Italian brothers? Get Chris Pratt he's famous"

@@Lord0fHunger I see what you mean. Still everyone you listed studied their character. Like Dante not only studied Zuko, he studied the fighting style used for firebending and emphasized his anger and breath during fight scenes. The guy who voices Fry also voices an array of other characters and changes up his voice from Fry. Similar to Alex Hirsch, Tara Strong, and John DiMaggio. They actually study character design and make it work with their voice. I love all Disney Renaissance films, but I blame them for blurring the art form lol. We don’t need a films with people performing characters like Mel Gibson’s John Smith.

(Edit: Okay, on rewatching the bit, he did say something about it being a "mediocre franchise," but I think there is still a distinction to be made between that statement and the way people are interpreting it here.) He was talking about its popularity and reception at the time. And as someone who was there, yeah, it was very successful to the point of being obnoxiously ubiquitous. It also wasn't nearly as respected as it would become later; I remember a lot of people in animation fan communities at the time regarding it much the same way people look at Illumination films now.

If it wasn't for the minions, i think this movie would be a timeless classic. Gru and the girls are so hilarious and the whole theme of becoming a parent you always wanted to have is so touching. But how can I recommed it to someone without sounding stupid? "Go watch a movie where yellow tick-tack scream Banana! Its hilarious!" 😑

tthe minions unironically rock. little chaos gremlins that never get openly malicious. the bit in the trailer for the new one where the one is stuck in a vending machine and another throws a shaken up soda can in and it explodes always gets me. the guy who voices them, Pierre Coffin (also director of the first three and the first minions movie), is a supremely talented voice actor, conveys so much with no actual text. the memes of the minions and the actual activities of the minions are completely different enterprises.
