Megamind didn’t really even need a sequel. It was a perfectly good standalone film. But at the same time, the 15 minute short film "Megamind: The Button Of Doom" is a significantly better sequel than whatever this is supposed to be.

@Phobie_2008 Yeah same. There might be some way to make an interesting Megamind sequel, but the movie works just as well as a standalone product. (Button of Doom was also nice tho.)

[@timmy6890]

Yep

[@mr.j3rs3y]

Button of Doom was a fun short

[@theburningphoenix]

The Button of Doom shows that there were so many interesting directions they could take the character in though as evidently he still has room to grow into the hero he was always destined to be, or maybe not to be, this film is just AI nonsense meant to syphon any bit of money they can generate off of the properties resurgent popularity which is why it fails so hard.

It sucks because Minion was such an iconic character. I get that they didn't want to have to deal with a lawsuit from Illumination, but... It's fucking Illumination. Even if you call your character Minion, first, they don't own the name. It's been around for centuries. Second, Megamind was released the same year as Despicable Me, and it sorta felt like Illumination and DreamWorks were challenging eachother to see who could make the better villain-to-hero animated movie. Yes, Illumination was the winner, but even then they will make another movie and it'll make them so much money regardless of how good it is. So this change was by far the most pointless one.

I think an easy fix for the Doom Syndicate would be to make them _idolize_ Megamind, to the point where they believe he's their leader despite never meeting them. Not only does that make more sense and keeps the continuity, but it also leaves the story pretty much unaltered (for better or for worse).

[@somisimons]

...and since they idolize him so much and they don't know that he became a hero, they start to commit crimes in the name of Megamind, and Megamind gets hated by Metrocity's people again because they think Megamind is the one comitting the crimes. That's such an easy fix but it would significantly improve the plot.

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.

From what I read, it looks like the Doom Syndicate was originally in an earlier draft of the first Megamind, so I wonder if they just reused the old draft for the sequel rather than making a whole new story. That would explain why there's so many plotholes and contradictions in this one, including them introducing Megamind's mentor - which doesn't make sense since it was the prisoners who mentored him. This explanation would also work to explain why the original writers have their name on this product despite all these glaring storytelling errors. They only worked on the original draft, but they never had a hand in the sequel's creation.

[@Theguywhowanders]

This is the definition of pure laziness 💀

[@syppy7416]

here's how I would write the doom syndicate instead Megamind tried to join them at the start of his career but they just laughed him off, at some point they were put in jail and have only broken out now due to the news that Megamind "Killed" Metroman, so now they want him to be a part of the syndicate and are appaled when they learn he's become a hero

The Button of Doom: The TRUE Megamind sequel

[@AlexG-jk8tc]

If I wrote this Megamind sequel: the film opens with a flashback. Megamind, at the peak of his villain career, wants to join the Doom Syndicate, who mock/reject him, calling him a loser. Minion jumps to Megamind's defense, and they walk away. Flash forward to present day, where the Doom Syndicate, unaware Megamind is now a hero, resurfaces in Metro City, wanting to recruit him for apparently killing Metro Man, claiming they "misjudged him". Megamind knows in his heart that it's wrong, but he now finds himself torn between his new, heroic identity and reverting to villainy now that these powerful people claim to respect. That and how it affects his relationships with Minion and Roxanne would be the driving conflict of the film. Nothing amazing, but I think it would be a MUCH better film than what we got. What do you think?

Cartoonshi, I am begging you cover the actual Megamind 2 short movie we got long ago on the 25th of February 2011, Megamind: The Button of Doom. It will not disappoint, it shows Megamind, days after the first movie, adjusting to his life as a hero, and how he overcomes a slight chameleon effect of Metroman. This is something that deserves a dedicated 13:08 minutes of video runtime.
