Did AI Write Megamind 2?

Megamind 2 has to be AI-generated. A well-deserved 2/10 on IMDB. This will probably be the worst movie in 2024. Why are these sequels ruining our favourite childhood movies?

I still can't believe they changed Minion's name. They think they needed to change it because he was no longer a villain, but forget Megamind didn't give him that name either! Watching his origin story we see his parents putting him in the rocket and going "Here is your Minion, he will take care of you..." His parents and his race weren't villains, and he wasn't born a villain. In fact it's quite possible that "Minion" is their planet's Goldfish, just hyper advanced much like the people there mentally. Loyal to those who feed them, Minion took that name possibly by choice to honor his race being wiped out. "I will remember my kind, by keeping their name alive through me sir." Calling him "Chum" is much more derogatory, essentially calling him fish guts.

Could be that the used to have a more delicate script but it got slashed during development to the point where it is unrecognizable. Like maybe at first there were fears of not appealing to modern audiences, then the budget got cut, then they were told to play it safer, then they were told to stretch it out for a tv show follow up. Then they were put under time restraints and focus groups didn’t like what they were doing, so they had to redo everything with an even harder slashed budget and an already set release date, that would have been impossible to do, so they had to cut and rewrite even more. So by the end we got something that has nothing to do with the writers vision but was still written by them technically

[@TF2CrunchyFrog]

Even from the trailer, Megamind 2 feels like a discarded Despicable Me script... because the despicable Me sequels basically already did that "former villain has to pretend to still be evil but then outplay his former fellow villains" plot, oh and also a plot involving the moon! Worse, it makes _zero sense_ in the context of the Megamind universe and retroactively ruins the brilliant original MM movie! Because Megamind (the character) never _had_ a "gang" of fellow villains!! It's a plot point in the Megamind movie that Megamind is totally alone and the only other person he had his entire life was Minion the fish, and how Megamind and Metro-Man are both space aliens and are in fact the _only superhero and supervillain_ in the world! Hence why Megamind gets the idea to create a new hero (which backfires with Tighten) in the first place! The idea of supervillain societies belongs in the Despicable Me universe. Also, the script wants us to believe that this "former gang that Megamind used to hang out with" (which never existed in the first movie and wouldnt make any sense there) _somehow_ did not notice that Megamind is now the hero of Metro City... even though he had a giant battle with Tighten that nobody could miss, and him saving the day was on television! hen for somereason he has to pretend he's still one of them, only to fight them later? Why.

If they REALLY wanted to make a movie about Megamind and the Doom syndicate, then they could do it like this: This new doom syndicate meets Megamind, telling that they had their eyes on his works for a while after he became a super hero and knowing about his past evil plans They would take the chance now to slowly manipulate Megamind and try making him question himself if it is worth to fight for all of humanity seeing the bad people can cause This is a simple concept and i'm sure much more can be added to it.

[@lucasmatthiessen1570]

Here’s what I have come up with for a Megamind 2. Don’t worry, it’s not made by AI. The start of the movie starts with Megamind going back to the prison where he was born to release and rehabilitate the criminals who raised him. One of the criminals Sam was very disappointed at Megamind for becoming a hero. He was also mad at him for forgetting to release them earlier when he had the chance. We cut to Megamind training to become a superhero. Metroman was his teacher. Megamind hires people to pretend to rob a bank so he can stop them. The results were either okay or bad. But Metroman tells him that it’s okay if he fails. He still got a lot to learn. After Megamind think he’s ready. He ventures out into Metrocity to stop crime. However, not much was happening. Metroman was a hero because he has a villain to stop. And without a villain to stop. Megamind ended up in the same place he did in the first movie. But one day. Sam came by and forgave Megamind and wanted to work for him. Megamind agrees and gives him a copy of his gun. The same gun that Megamind used to extract Metroman’s DNA. Sam, somehow secretly got a sample of Megamind’s DNA and gave himself Megamind’s DNA. As well as his great intelligence making Sam incredibly smart. Sam then ran away and for the next few months he builds an army of gadgets and robots. Then, he invaded the city. Megamind who was surprised, and also happy that he finally has a main villain to stop, went out of his way to stop Sam. AKA, Omegamind. Because he thinks he’s smarter than Megamind. When Megamind shows up and tries to stop him. He fails, miserably. In despair, Megamind goes home. Not noticing that Omegamind had kidnapped Minion. When Megamind notices he calls Omegamind and tells him to release Minion. Omegamind says that he will but on one condition. Megamind starts to work for him. If not. He’ll kill Minion. Without any other choice. Megamind agrees. He came to Omegamind’s lair and Omegamind freed Minion. Omegamind tells Megamind his evil plans to take over the city next week. But then, Minion and Megamind soon escaped the lair. However, Megamind tells Minion that he wants to go back to the lair to work for Omegamind so he can be a villain again. Because if he’s better at being a villain than a hero. Then maybe he should just stay a villain. And if he’s not good at being a villain. Then he’s good at nothing. Megamind goes home and thinks if he wants to join Omegamind or not. But then, as he walked outside. He saw Minion, Roxanne, and a bunch of other people. Including the prisoners. Minion told them about Omegamind’s plan and they all wanted to help. But first. They want to learn how to become a superhero. That’s when Megamind realizes that while he isn’t good at being a superhero. He is good at knowing how to be a superhero. And so, Megamind teaches all of them how to be a hero. The same way Metroman teaches Megamind. By next week. Megamind and the rest of the gang went to the city to put an end to Omegamind’s evil plans. And they won. However, Omegamind either dies or looses his powers. Either way, Megamind is left villainless again. But then he realizes. Maybe he doesn’t need to fight a villain to be a hero. And so, Megamind starts working as a teacher at the university for police officers, fire fighters and more. And he even uses his gadgets to repair the damage Omegamind caused. As well as using them for other good reasons like getting rid of waste and so on.

i used chatgpt 3.5 to do the same thing you did and it was better than the actual megamind 2, basically metro city opens up a museum of villains (don't ask me why) and this villain named eclipse showed up, for some reason chat gpt cut it off right after eclipse and megamind were about to fight but it was a cool idea

Plus the way that they marketed the show they marketed it as continuing a cult classic for the millennials with them saying “ it’s back better than ever you’re welcome” implying that it is not for children, but for the people who watched the original when they were kids and have grown up. And the reason why they flopped is because they targeted an audience that did not care about, KIDS! Because the current kids never grew up with Megamind, so when they release it, not a single kid even cared about watching it.

The Technarx one at least ends with Megamind doing something no one did for him when he was growing up. Believe in the villain, offer them a chance and then help them out to be a part of society. Megamind has to struggle with that, because everyone judged him without chance. With this it could’ve been that he judged them first too, forgetting his own initial struggles but once he enhanced his mind he saw the bigger picture and saved everyone, including the “villain”

They forgot that if they wanted to appeal to audience that's fan of Megamind all the audience will already be grown up and if they wanted to appeal to children they atleast need some quality to give some impact compared to original

[@wolfherojohnson2766]

The fact ChaGPT made something better. Ok here's how I'd do it. The Doom Syndicate are not Megamind's colleagues, but instead his diehard fans. They were outcasts just like he was and so they modeled their identities around villainy as he did. The syndicate, Megamind realizes, are trying to push him onto the same pedestal he put Metroman on. Megamind has to try to convince them to abandon their evil ways whilst keeping the city free from crime in the meantime. Remove the self insert, throw in more scenes with Minion/Chum and Megamind strategizing, and have Roxanne try to play up the conflict for Megamind since he loves his presentation.

[@eeveeofalltrades4780]

Honestly, based on what I've seen and heard, Megamind 2 isn't *that* bad, it just has a bad script, continuity issues, and bad animation; the concept itself isn't that bad, at least it wouldn't if it wasn't Megamind.

Just saying, some of the villains of Megamind 2 are adapted from the original script for Megamind, when Megamind was known as Mastermind and Metroman was known as Uberman, you can even see concept art for that original script where the villains look nearly identical to their designs in Megamind 2.

I watched this with my friend because she was a huge fan of Megamind. We obviously didn’t like it. But like he said in the video, I think the main problem was that they focused too much on the jokes and puns instead of focusing on character development or the plot itself (that’s if it wasn’t actually ai generated)

I love how you can use common sense to realize that if a movie came out 14 years ago, most of the people who are fans of it are around that age or older, yet they still chose to dig it out of its 14 year old grave, spit on it, and make it for kids 💀

I asked to ChatGPT 3.5 to write a plot for Megamind 2 and I think even that would be better : Title: Megamind 2: Rise of the Titan Synopsis: After the defeat of Tighten, the city of Metro City enjoys a period of peace under the protection of Megamind and his friends. However, their tranquility is shattered when a new threat emerges from the depths of space. A mysterious alien warrior known as Kronos arrives on Earth, wielding unimaginable power and bent on conquest. As Megamind and his team scramble to defend their home, they soon discover that Kronos has a personal vendetta against Megamind, stemming from a forgotten past. With the fate of Metro City hanging in the balance, Megamind must confront his own history and embrace his true potential to save the city and defeat Kronos. But as the battle intensifies, Megamind realizes that defeating Kronos will require more than just his intellect; it will require the power of friendship, courage, and the belief in oneself. With the help of his loyal friends Minion, Roxanne Ritchi, and Metro Man, Megamind embarks on an epic journey to stop Kronos before it's too late. In a climactic showdown between good and evil, Megamind discovers that true strength comes from within, and that even the most unlikely heroes can rise to the occasion when the fate of the world is at stake. Megamind 2: Rise of the Titan is a thrilling adventure that proves that heroes come in all shapes and sizes, and that with determination and heart, anything is possible.

The citizens are uneasy, whispering among themselves. CUT TO: INT. METRO MAN MUSEUM - DAY The museum is filled with people admiring the exhibits dedicated to Metro Man's heroic deeds. Among them are MEGAMIND and MINION, disguised as ordinary citizens. MEGAMIND (whispering) Something doesn't feel right, Minion. MINION (looking around) You're right, boss. It's like the calm before the storm. Suddenly, a loud crash is heard outside. Megamind and Minion rush to the window. EXT. METRO CITY - DAY A massive robot, TITAN, emerges from the ground, causing chaos and destruction. Citizens scream and flee in terror. MEGAMIND (into communicator) Tighten your screws, Titan! What do you think you're doing? TITAN (voice booming) I am no longer Titan. I am now TITANUS, ruler of Metro City! Megamind and Minion exchange worried looks. CUT TO: EXT. METRO CITY STREETS - DAY Megamind and Minion fly towards Titanus, ready to confront him. MEGAMIND We have to stop him before he destroys everything! MINION But how do we defeat a titan? MEGAMIND With our brains, Minion. With our brains. They land in front of Titanus, who towers over them. TITANUS Ah, Megamind. I've been expecting you. MEGAMIND What do you want, Titanus? TITANUS I want what's rightfully mine - control over Metro City! Megamind and Titanus engage in an epic battle, using their wits and gadgets to outsmart each other. Meanwhile, Minion fights off Titanus' army of robots. As the battle rages on, Megamind realizes that Titanus is being controlled by a mysterious figure lurking in the shadows. MEGAMIND (to Minion) We need to find out who's behind this! Together, they uncover the identity of the mastermind - HAL STEWART, a former nerd who holds a grudge against Megamind for humiliating him in high school. With Hal's plan exposed, Megamind and Minion devise a clever strategy to defeat him and reclaim Metro City. In a final showdown, Megamind confronts Hal, using his intelligence and charm to outmaneuver him. MEGAMIND You may have the brawn, Hal, but I've got the brains! With a brilliant stroke of genius, Megamind deactivates Titanus and saves the day once again. The citizens of Metro City cheer as Megamind and Minion stand triumphantly. MEGAMIND (evil grin) Looks like it's back to prison for you, Hal. HAL (defeated) You may have won this time, Megamind, but I'll be back! As Hal is taken away by the authorities, Megamind and Minion share a laugh, knowing that they'll always be ready to defend Metro City from whatever evil may come their way. FADE OUT.
