The Megamind Sequel Is An Affront To God

When Megamind's former villain team the Doom Syndicate returns, the newly crowned blue hero must keep up evil appearances until he can assemble his friends (Roxanne, Chum and Keiko) to stop his old teammates from launching Metro City to the moon.
That's the movie. It feels like a machine spit out a potential story idea and they couldn't even be bothered to hire any of the original cast, production team, all of it. Watch for yourself just how bad it is.

It certainly wasn’t uncommon to do a direct-to-video movie sequel right before launching a tie-in tv show, but the wait in-between is what blows my mind.

Calling a character “Minion” isn’t even copyright. It’s a proper noun. That’s his OFFICIAL name. While the characters, “THE minions,” is a title. They each have individual names but “the minions” itself is a title (indicated by the article), not a proper noun used to refer to an individual person. That’s like saying Apple Jack from MLP is a copy right of Apple, like, the phone company. Or vise versa.

Years ago, I had a dream of how the "Megamind" sequel would be: -It started in the Christmas holiday season. Everyone was happy, Megamind and Roxanne were in a shoping helping the crew with decorations and whatnot, there were kids around, happy to see Megamind, some of them were probably the couple's own children... And then the scene would cut to the town's other side, where some police officers were patrolling, spotting suspicious activity. Unfortunately, the dream ended there. I don't know what else might have been in store.

I like that the villain's plan kinda copies a plot point from Despicable Me 3 of all things, where the villain also wanted to send part of a city into space. Speaking of Despicable Me, I'm guessing they changed the name of Minion not because of Universal intervening but because Dreamworks thought kids would get him confused with the Despicable Me Minions. It's also ironic that they managed to get Will Ferrel for Despicable Me 4 but couldn't get him back for Megamind 2. Really says a lot.

ok so the way i remember the megamind ending megamind and roxane were 100% not together, he lied to her and betrayed her trust they are not together, but they're at a point where going forward its a thing that is possibly going to happen. this thematically has to be how the movie ends to make sense, because you can't end a movie where the main villian's thesis is "i'm the hero duh i deserve the girl" with "and so the girl forgets everything the hero did to her because obviously the hero gets the girl" the whole theme of the story is about how tighten treated roxane like she was the corner office that came with his position as the new metroman, not as an actual person, you can't just give her to megamind in the end like a prize.

Here's something I would have done if I was given the task to make a megamind sequel first things first I would re-watch the original film 2 to 3 different times so I can get a really good grasp on what the concept of megamind is about Then I would bring in the Doom syndicate into the sequel but give them a new origin story making the megamind video game not canon to the franchise at all which is perfectly fine since nobody really played it or cared about it Possibly give them new designs to make them more intimidating as villains And give them a new origin story an origin story that could be as simple as this One of the members of the Doom syndicate could be a scientist while other folks could be random civilians who happen to have gotten power similar to that of what we see in the actual sequel itself but they actually look interesting The first try to use their powers to mess with megamind and then they tried to take it a step further of trying to take over the city and possibly the entire world and megamind and his new crew have to stop him For that girl character who's meant to be a sidekick I do one of two things either write her out of the story entirely or try to make her either be a parody of the sidekick archetype while also making her an interesting character in her own right that makes her worthy of being part of this new team megamind tries to form with her and Roxanne along with minion speaking of him I would also have him keep his name Another thing I would do is that if I want to make it as a sequel where it expands upon the themes and ideas that the first film did I would take the themes of the first film did and expand on them without contradicting the original themes and characterizations of how the characters were in the first movie (basically not pulling a Toy story 4) I will expand upon its themes and ideas that the original film had did without making the characters feel out of character or without retreading the same ground That is probably what I would do if I were to be given the task of making a true megamind sequel it probably won't be perfect but it'll at least be something Even if I wouldn't have the budget of the first movie to work on a project like this I would at least put some form of care into it as not only a standalone movie but as a true sequel to megamind if I were to be given that task I hope you had the time to read this and I hope you guys really liked what I have to say 😁 also btw the VA for megamind vs the doom syndacate acually played megamind in the video games so its not his first rodeo and yes the writters of the first film did write this as well.....film still sucks
