Megamind

IMSDb seems to have posted an early Megamind draft…haven’t read it yet, but it seems pretty interesting.

Oh wow, there’s a lot of ‘explicit’ language in that script. I’m pleased to see that didn’t make it to the actual movie. :stuck_out_tongue:

Although it’s definitely a great read. :slight_smile: Also, a funny feature is that the rivals are still called Uberman and Mastermind in this script. :stuck_out_tongue:

Megamind, Button of Doom trailer:

Looks like some wacky fun to me in any case! Hopefully the double pack will be available in the UK too!

I kind of suspect Megamind is trying too hard to be like Metroman was as a hero and thus things fail in that manner. The little end scene where they go ‘Yaaaay!’ Is kind of adorable in its own way too.

Thanks for that link mentalguru!

I love that trailer. It’s Mega-Megamind! “HOLLO” 8D

When I first saw the teaser trailer for this movie, I was quite unsure about it. But I watched it yesterday and really, really liked it. I didn’t like some of the character designs, but other than that it was a fun, funny movie that had me smiling for a lot of the second half. I prefer it a bit more than HTTYD simply because I like the characters more. Some of the animation was nicely done, and there were some funny lines in the movie. I kind of wish that I hadn’t seen the trailer/ read the synopsis before seeing it, because it would have made the movie mildly more surprising (although it was pretty predictable anyway).

I’m always up for more Megamind, though I’m kinda wishing Roxanne would return for this outing. :frowning:

I really enjoyed this movie! B+ I won’t re type my gripes and likes, though. Too tired! 8D But I liked Roxanne surprisingly well. I just wish she had longer hair. And there were No Incredibles references! <3 I’m so happy.

Regarding your review in the movies thread, IncredigirlVirginia…(I would post it there but I clicked the wrong thread and my post will probably get deleted there)

I’m glad to hear that you enjoyed it :smiley: In my opinion it’s a little underrated and overshadowed by HTTYD. As for your complaints about the lack of characters, I can see where you’re coming from. The city felt a bit barren to me despite the background characters, etc. However, I think the small character relationships were the strong point of the movie. The focus on character over plot was a step in the right direction for Dreamworks. Having more major characters might have overcomplicated that and weighed down the movie. From what I’ve seen of the art book, there was originally going to be a subplot about Megamond and the “League of Villains”, with a multitude of secondary characters. For the sake of simplifying the movie, as I said before, I’m glad they got rid of it.

Thanks for the thoughts, Bryko. I agree, maybe more characters may not have been best for this particular movie. It just seemed empty to me. I do love it, though, and I’ll be getting a DVD soon. Or when it releases. 8D I’d place it between Despicable Me and HtTYD. Not the best movie ever, but like you said, it deserved more attention.

I feel like such an idiot. I went to two stores yesterday looking for this movie. When I couldn’t find it, I pulled out my phone to check to see if it actually came out on Tuesday. I couldn’t help but laugh when I saw that it’s coming out on Friday! :smiley:

I hope I can get it. Depends on when out income tax gets here.

Deleted scene from Megamind!

Logical weirdness: how would minion brush his teeth anyway?

Basically Megamind angsting that Metroman isn’t around anymore for a minute longer.

Thanks for sharing this link! The producer summed it up nicely. It’s a fantastic scene alone, but it would slow down the movie.
