I always thought the minions were creatures that Gru created himself. I would've loved to watch Gru creating and trying to teach them to blend in with humanity while also trying to cope with their idiocy or disregard for accidental destruction
In the commentary for the first movie, they say Gru used his DNA to create them, so he's technically also related to them. But you know...Money changes minds for the worst. X.x

Here's the thing. The world of despicable me has tons of supervillains and basically no superheroes. Basically, they're the ONLY highly remarkable beings in this world and with no remarkable people on the side of good to oppose them, THEY are the celebrities and people just accept them as such since there are very few ways of dealing with them because, once again, no heroes.
Except unlike other genetic variations, a change in such a major sensory aspect would probably be ironed out in their earliest - survival of the fittest.
to be fair villaincon could only been watched by using some secret frequency that the minions discovered by accident...which is still extremely convenient and we saw Gru buying the freeze ray from Dr.Nefario in the convention
Well, technically superheroes don't exist in their universe so.... it would be a big risk trying to arrest a large group of super villains even if they tell you where they are. Just imagine the possible death toll.
I could buy the secret frequency thing. I mean Kim Possible in the episode 'Bad Boy' had some kind of villaincon thing. Though I think the one in KP did this much better.
It really seems to me that so many things were ignored in this film for the sake of plot convenience. It really exposes the lazy writing. I actually don't think the concept of explaining the origins of the Minions is a bad idea, I just think the whole thing was executed poorly. First of all, in the first film, there's a blueprint of Gru's design for the minions in the girl's room in the first film (confirming what you said about them being created by Gru). That doesn't necessarily mean that they couldn't do a minions origin story, they'd just have to change what that story was. I think there would actually be some story potential there. They could explain why Gru wanted to make them, what he thought about them after he did so, what his thought process was and more. Perhaps Gru could have been the main character (to go off of how you mentioned having comic relief characters lead a movie is a bad idea, which I agree with). The second thing is the length. There is no reason, apart from money, for this to be a feature length film, and it's really obvious to me that once the origin story part of the film ends the writers were pretty desperate for ideas and just did whatever they could think of without giving it much thought. I just feel like a lot of stuff in it was really unnecessary and only served as filler. I personally think this would have been better in a short film format. In short, I think this should have been an animated short about Gru making the minions and the shenanigans that ensued.
Someone else commented on another video related to the Minions movie that they'd like to think that Gru made all of this up when telling the girls a story of how the Minions came to be. And honestly it's a clever idea, I don't think they actually just evolved, they were created by him.
I know I'm gonna sound stupid right know but... I like how they managed to convey everything these minions say without actual words. Granted, they had to use a narrator at the begining, but through the rest of the movie these three main characters have personalities you can clearly see, they care about eachother, and they bounce of eachother nicely without using any comprehensable language
I completely agree with you! I thought it was very clever to make their language both incomprehensible and completely understandable. You don't sound stupid at all.
EvilCarrotSauce For the time being, yes we do. Hoping to change that in the near future. And thank you for rooting for us. Three years and counting. :-D
The Mangle maybe Gru's Minions are cloned from the original Minions, and Gru killed the original Minions? It would explain why they still serve Gru in spite of him no longer being a Villain.
@@caseywilde7931 Gru just told this movie as a bedtime story to the girls. All that stuff about Minions being from the dawn of time is just Gru bullshitting his way through the tale.
1. It was even established in a short film accompanying the first movie that they were screwed up clones of Gru; so you're right, Bob. They were genetically engineered. 2. There are no Catholic Priests at Westminster Abbey, Bob. Those are Anglicans. 3. I love this review!
Pause the video at 21:26 if you want to read the story behind the Bob minion plushie, it was so cute!! It makes me love their relationship even more!! Bob i hope you and Raven have more beautiful years yet to come. "GOODNIGHT EVERYBODY!!!" - Yako Warner.
This review summed up Epic Voice Guy's feelings on the Minions! He panicked when he saw a character carrying Minions merchandise in-universe during Honest Trailers! 🤣
My biggest problem with this movie is the plothole it creates for the Despicable Me canon. If the minions want to serve the most despicable villain they can, why do they still follow Gru, who's ineffectual at best when the first movie starts and is outright fighting evil in the second one?
I... kinda liked the movie. It's no masterpiece, but at least they managed to make it the least entertaining without anything annoying, obnoxious or insulting. Heck, I really enjoyed Sandra Bullock's voice acting, her character was pretty much a caricature of herself! There was no better choice for that kind of villain, especialy in her moments of temper tantrum. I also LOVED that villains family, it was just hilarious how that stereotype of the nuclear family with the upbeat father, the sweet and caring mother and the bratty, peppy kids turned out to be a family of villains as well, and taking everything as if they were still a 70s family in their weekend trip.
Also, you can spot little Gru in the villain con, he was actualy talking to a guy in a booth that created the ice gun. Maybe his mother was also in the villain business, so Gru learned all from her, iuncluding how to get the tech.
Imagine how much the toys made, & how little they cost. Slap a pair of goggles on a knockoff Kinder Egg shell, wrap a cheap piece of cloth on it, & bam, you have yourself a Minion. Or just paint eyes on little Tic Tacs.
Say what you will, but I loved this film when it came out. I was (and still remain) a huge Minion enjoyer, and having a whole movie of them just messing around was great. I went to see it the day it came out, and the scene where Stuart imagines Kevin and Bob as bananas made my whole family laugh. I don’t care whether the average 30 something TH-camr despises these characters clearly not marketed towards them, but I loved it nonetheless.
Regarding "Why haven't the Minions evolved since the age of the dinosaurs"...maybe they found their one perfect form and had no reason to evolve, like the horseshoe crab? But I don't think this is true...or if it is, it doesn't make sense.
Here's a little fun fact about the Minions: There was actually an easter egg in the first Despicable Me film that shows that Gru created the Minions, being a blueprint shown on a wall in one scene. So because of that, I'm going to dismiss the entire Minions movie as being a bedtime story Gru told to the girls about the Minions and have this entire movie be dismissed as non-canon. That being said, I should also point out that Scarlet Overkill is NOT the first female supervillain, because the Batman antagonist Catwoman debuted in 1940, 28 years before this movie takes place, so she's a bit late to the party.
To answer your question "where did he get that ice gun?" In the scene where the Minions are at villian con, you can see young Gru with his mom looking at the freeze ray.
13:06 Supposedly in the past India and Australia were connected and then formed the indo-australian plate. Maybe it was their intention to show that? Still doesn't explains why in 1970's they were able to do it...
Lol! Seeing Raven ask Bob to say the conclusion in minionese is hilarious!! Also, 2 reviews on one day?! Holy shit, Bob you and Raven are FUCKING AWESOME!!!
Minions...Spongebob...Simpsons............What's with the color yellow? Even the most popular Pokémon, Pikachu, is yellow. Conspiracy? 🤔 .....Eh, probably not.
Ashley Snoodles Yellow is a popular color for kids. That's what makes a kid appeal character. Pink is also a very popular color when it comes to girls stuff. In the Monster High toyline, Draculaura gets more exposure than any other Ghoul, even being the face of the flash anime in Japan and overshadowing Frankie Stein. #JusticeForFrankieStein
1:46 From what I've read Bob originally their origin was that Gru genetically made them from corn kernels. They retconned though in this movie. Probably because they wanted to make this a movie without Gru so they changed their origins so they could be on their own in this movie. That's the only reason I can think of and it makes the most sense.
Jacob Schmidt I don't remember that in the film. Was that said in some art book or comic? (The comparison to corn kernels makes sense....and it's more acceptable than the retcon)
Honestly, I prefer the Rabbids over the Minions. Maybe it's because they weren't as saturated as the Minions, maybe it's because they had some fun games (well, the first three anyway, I haven't played Rabbids Go Home or Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle yet, but they look fun), or maybe it's because of their style of humor. The Rabbids are much more cartoonish, slapstick, Looney Tunes-esque with their stupidity getting them hurt, while the Minions, to me at least, are just "lol, stupid, randem."
Thank you. More people need to tackle these horrible, factory made animated movies. Honestly, The only companies that I trust making decent animated movies anymore are Disney, Pixar, and Studio Ghibli.
Meanwhile in 2023, Dreamworks produced the Puss in Boots sequel and Illumination made Minions: the rise of Gru and The Super Mario Bros Movie. Looks like studios are doing better than you thought.
Which is the greater form of torture? A)10 straight hours of Minions. B)10 straight hours of Fred the Movie. C)10 straight hours of the TV version of Annoying Orange. D)10 straight hours of insurance commercials.
I always thought the minions were creatures that Gru created himself. I would've loved to watch Gru creating and trying to teach them to blend in with humanity while also trying to cope with their idiocy or disregard for accidental destruction
He says in the first movie at some point that they were genetically engineered from corn.
They just pretty much retconned into... well, this movie.
Lemon Melon they should've let you write the movie!

I assume its a world where the anti super hero act was put into place like in The Incredibles.

Nah that would have drove Hitler to suicide. He could never stand there antics

In regard to the one-eye/two-eye thing, maybe they're dominant and recessive traits? That's a thing in genetics.
Awesome explanation! Thank you!
Just trying to throw out something to make sense of it, ma'am.
That is probably more thought than what the creators put into these deformed sausage links.
Except unlike other genetic variations, a change in such a major sensory aspect would probably be ironed out in their earliest - survival of the fittest.
Wouldn't work
After soo many millenia in such a small population, the ones with dominant traits would outnumber the ones with reccecives

Am I the only one who thought the Minions were aliens from space and somehow ended in Earth and working for Gru.
Matthew Dilday Actually they were originally genetically engineered Corn Kernels. Then they got retconned to being..... whatever the hell they are.
