When I was in elementary my principal loved Megamind so when our school won the award for high test grades, he dressed up as Megamind and painted himself blue and rode into the assembly on his unicycle. What a king honestly.
@@lordoffrogsinbogs thank you for sharing the video. He seems so wholesome, like a principal who actually cares about his students deeply. Really brightened up my night
I always thought Metroman choosing to pursue music was a great choice (besides the jokes that come w it), playing musical instruments would be the one thing that he’d actually have to practice to get better at, something he’s not immediately good with
I always liked how Metro Man matured as he got older. He was spoiled and had an ego but he was never a genuinely bad guy. He was as much a product of his environment as Megamind was and they both grew by the end.
A little late, but to add on... you can visibly see the effects of trauma on Megamind. He matured much much later than Metroman, because he became dependent on him. And I feel Metroman knew that. Megamind had no time to look in and become himself with Metroman around, because he used Metroman to feel happy and was usually in prison or inventing stuff. Metroman was so powerful he didn't train or study. Just used time to reflect. So when Metroman got bored, he was like an older sibling stopping the destructive fun of their younger sibling. By disappearing. This severed the reliance and codependency brought up by Megamind's unhealthy childhood, and now Megamind was on his own and had to mature finally.
People are like raccoons, they love gorbage. I believe Universal choosing Pharrell Williams' whole Girl album as the movie's soundtrack is the direct responsible for it.
@@dylives7667 this is a strong point. I also enjoyed the album as its soundtrack, but I believe it made its success because of the "kiddie formula"(not in an insulting way). Kids understands gibberish better than complex jokes.
Megamind is, without a doubt, one of the best movies in the genre that I've ever seen and I honestly don't think anything will ever top it. Rewatching it as an adult is absolutely wild, it somehow manages to touch on classicm, ableism, trauma, relationships, almost every broad category of Subject. It flips the superhero genrr inside out, and it's so genuine and sincere that I 100% excuse the corny bits.
I actually appreciate how Metroman doesn't go back to saving the day. Usually in that situation the old hero is hard to convince and comes to fight at the last minute. Yeah it is a little bit selfish but at the same time it's a refreshing take on the trope.
It also proved that he really just trusts Megamind enough to make the right decision. I'd say if Megamind was a serious villain instead of a rather imposing one, Metroman wouldn't be that friendly and thoughtful of him
@@Пинагод Metroman trusts megamind cause he knows both of them have a choice. They were put to the roles by the people who surround them shaping there identity. Reasons why Metroman retired is because he has time to think, enough education and thought to know exactly there identity crisis and the never ending charade. Megamind believes there opposing fights are what keeps them Happy, by being bad megamind knows Metroman is there to is stop him. Which I'm term a never ending cycle of Hero syndrome and inferiority complex repeating. By faking death Metroman allows megamind the needed time to think about he truly wants to do.
something i noticed after watching a few times is how when using the watch, the character's original eye color doesn't change. like when megamind disguises himself as bernard his eye color is still green despite bernard's eye color being a dark brown. same thing happens when minion disguises as the warden and his eye color is brown instead of blue- minion's eye color. just a neat little detail i noticed.
If you pay attention to the scene where Megamind says 'FIRE!' and there's the pause. On the projection, Metroman glitches out for a second which is when he used his super speed. The details people 👌
Honestly, Megaminds childhood was so sad. He was trying to be good and was judged despite his good intentions. No one tried to help him with his inventions to finally help people as he originally wanted. Also, Megamind clearly looks way more different than Metroman. Metroman has the luxury of not being judged based on his looks, while Megamind literally looks like a blueberry humanoid alien. He was shunned for no good reason as a child and it resonated with me so much.
I forgot metro man came back at the end, ND that he called him "little buddy." Makes me feel like they really were friends the whole time, and it's kinda sad too, since he's being in hiding and whatnot, like I'd love for them to be able to just hang out and pal around, each having found what they love to do.
Metroman will not appear more just tip hats and move on. The whole reason he fake death is to stop a game of charade hero and villain role they were having in forever. Metroman is always being nurture to a point of perfection he knows he wants to be different and megamind knows it too. But from megamind pov he needs to fill the role of bad to fight the good. They were always fighting/playing charade because people want them to be. And Metroman trust megamind to be the hero. If he suddenly appear then those stack of effort to finally have there seperate ways of being what they want to be ruined it just back to square one but people Know they're doing it to give metrocity assurance. They're are felons but not criminal activity throughout the film meaning. Megamind might be off screen helping Metroman cause he wants to fight him. By sending criminals to the police station anonymously
Honestly, I also love how this movie addresses the different reactions to rejection and understands that humility and acceptance pays off. You may not end up “getting the girl” like Megamind does, but how you handle the sting of rejection speaks volumes about your overall character.
"Oh you're a villain alright, just not a super one." "Oh yeah? What's the difference?" "PRESENTATION!!!" *Rock music blares* One of my favorite movie scenes of all time
It really *is* a great scene. I could hear Will Ferrel shouting “PRESENTATION!” Because that scene has always stuck with me. It’s so good and I’m not exactly sure why. Maybe I just love the music and the literal presentation of it. It’s just a deliciously epic scene.
I knew this film slapped back in 2010 and I remember thinking back then “why do people not like this movie?” I didn’t understand why everyone slept on it. I’m so glad that everyone is finally giving this movie the respect and appreciation it deserved back in 2010. It’s always been one of my favorite Dreamworks movies and definitely one of their best films. Thank God it’s finally getting its appreciation that is so long overdue.
"What's the difference between a villain and a super villain? PRESENTATION!" That sentence inspired me and I since then always try to give my best presentation in everything that I do.
Second to women, Hal Is the scariest to men who had his mindset In the past. It's like looking at the monster you would've become or even was at some point. It's *TERRIFYING.*
Nah I genuinely hate Metroman, like the man tormented Megamind so much that he wanted to be the villain so then he can lose every time. Like in usual cases the leads to suic**e, but Megamind keeps scraping but always let down by everyone cuz he’s labelled a villain except for Minion
My favourite part is when he beats titan and the citizens start to celebrate only for him to pull a pistol out on them yelling “back you savages”, truly a great movie.
Two subtle things about the movie I love is that 1. Real Bernard has brown eyes while Megamind Bernard still has Megamminds green eyes and 2. Roxanne mostly wears red in the beginning of the movie, then purple in the middle, and finally blue at the end just shows whos shes more closer to in the movie red being metroman then purple for both then blue for Megamind
I’m so glad Megamind is now getting the recognition it deserved, absolutely adored this movie growing up, so much so I did a video essay for school on it lol
The amount of "Mega Man" in this video is too damn high. And the genuinely funny part is that you refer to Metro Man AND Megamind as Mega Man lmao. I love it
16:33 something I thought was a nice touch that’s not really outright stated. Metro man might be enamored with music because it’s not something he instantly could do. And it’s something he could Learn to be good at.
That’s a really good point! Beyond the joke of this God-like man being unable to play music, that very well could be WHY he wants to do it. Everything has always been handed to Metroman or comes supremely easy because of his superpowers. I imagine you would get tired of that after a time and want something to work to achieve. I think Metroman absolutely was feeling the same lack of purpose, of being pigeonholed, as Megamind was.
Hits like a truck cause he was molding out to be the hero he doesn't want for Roxanne even thought he's the tyrant mayor he starts fixing shit that's IRL politician can't even fix garbage duty. My head cannon is the reason why Metroman is always free to roam around with his ego, before duking it out with megamind off screen is just fixing crime rates cause he just wants to **be the one only true villain bad guy** even the whole film there's only prisoners cause megamind and Metroman hasn't entered and fight off yet... megamind ironically became metrocity hero by fixing small things and reducing criminal to just him and Metroman, that's why the police where **SO INCOMPETENT** cause they never experienced situations with baddies roaming the city before because of megamind just wanting to be the city's only true villain clean it's dirt
weird thing about the thing megaminds father says as in the commercial he actually finishes his sentence say he is destined for greatness which makes me wonder if they decided to change it later on
Bionic Pig fun fact there is a single frame during when mega mind and metro man are on the big screens during the parade you can see metro man appear behind mega mind showing his super speed montage that is shown later in the movie where he contemplates why he’s doing everything it’s such a crazy detail and very easily missed. Edit: another detail is as Roxan slowly becomes closer to mega mind personally her dress slowly changes colour from red to purple to blue at the end.
That sounds like a horror movie Imagine a dude with super strength moving so fast that he could snap your neck and go back across where he was without anyone seeing what happened.
Me and my brother have been quoting the scene where metroman got captured in the dome and he and Megamind argued for like a minute straight. One of the funniest scenes in the movie
I was literally just talking about megamind with one of my friends last night, my favorite part of metro man’s dynamic with megamind is is just metro man’s older brother type connection with megamind, it’s so sweet and I love it so much
When I first watched this movie 10 years ago, I wanted to have a Forget-Me-Stick to use on others. The older I become, the more I want to use it on myself.
They were so clever in the making of this film. The Directors Cut points out that in the scene where Metroman is “trapped” in the observatory, you can see him clip out and back in when he later said that he left to reflect on his life.
Megamind is one of my favorite movies. It manages to be an entertaining, funny animated family film while also tackling some really BIG social issues: positive and negative socialization, classism, sexual harassment, stereotyping, relationship stigmas, and, to an extent, even racism. (Megamind is treated differently from a young age and assumed to be naturally bad because of his physical appearance.) Maintaining that balance is hard enough, but on top of that everything in this movie--the acting, dialogue, animation, soundtrack, and attention to detail--are all phenomenal. Why, amid the huge popularity of superhero films, has DreamWorks STILL not giving this gem a sequel?!
I’m 27 and saw this movie for the first time about a year ago. Knew absolutely nothing about it and didn’t know any of the plot twists. Was absolutely delightful to watch a movie like this and thoroughly enjoy it
I love this movie, especially this scene 10:34 where he has yellow roses and that specific colors of roses symbolizes 'Friendship, apology, intense emotion, a broken heart, etc' I just love the tiny details in this movie 💛 I glad you talked about this movie and Rango
I've always said that the greatest crossover of our time was never Avengers. It was the crossover we never got. Megamind and Monster vs Aliens. I'd kill to see that.
12:18 "Hal is basically if you gave an angry incel superpowers, imagine how dangerous that would be. OH HEY LOOK A DONKEY KONG REFERENCE." I almost did a spit take 😆
I like to think Mega Mind as the wreck it Ralph of dreams work and it really nails the concept of we may play roles, but nothing stop us from breaking the shackles and climbing out of the rut and doing what we truly want to do
Here's my day so far; went to jail, lost the girl of my dreams, and got my butt kicked pretty good. Still, things could be a lot worse. Oh, that's right... I'm falling to my death. Guess they can't. How did it all come to this you ask? My end starts at the beginning, the very beginning! Yes, that's me. I had a fairly standard childhood. I came from what you might call a broken home, literally broken. I was eight days old and still living with my parents. How sad is that?! Clearly it was time to move on.
16:03 I actually saw a trailer for this movie in the theaters where they said that Metroman didn’t die but retired so the twist that he wasn’t already dead was already spoiled for me.
I didn't actually watch this movie until 2016, and I am so glad I was a bit older upon my first viewing. I feel like as a teenager, I wouldn't have been able to fully appreciate the morals, lessons, and ideas presented, and I definitely wouldn't have enjoyed it to the... hm... MASSIVE EXTENT that I currently do. (I am a bit disappointed that I missed my chance to catch it on the big screen tho.) Megamind will forever hold a very special place in my heart, and again, I must thank you profusely for this review. ❤️
Pig in his ad be like: "I DO have a wife, and I DO sleep besides her, thats right, on the same bed. Because we married, and shes my wife." Anyways, I love Megamind
btw, in the start of a movie where Metroman is about to "die", in a fraction of a second you can actually see Metroman behind Megamind on the screen he is on. kind of a neat little touch
If a sexual deviant had Superman’s powers that would be horrifying, especially if they had no self control. I’ll just let you think about the implications yourself.
Once I got grounded or it got stuck (can’t remember) and could only watch what was in my DVD player and it was Megamind.. and it’s still one of my favorite movies
Fun Fact : Megamind didn't come from a race of villains, he just came from a grossly intelligent species that I theorize was using a Dyson sphere to harness the full energy of their star and ended up collapsing it into itself by pulling energy from the core through to the surface, causing a pressure difference that would immediately supernovae and collapse into a singularity But hey, that's just a theory, a mind theory, thanks for listening Love me
@@not.alexanderr actually the theory was just WHY the black hole was there, half the point of the movie is that he WASN'T supposed to be a villian, check yourself
@@memyselfandi7782 I mean they're obviously hyper intelligent compared to humans and we already have plans for a Dyson sphere for our sun so why wouldn't they y'know? Thx for liking it though ^^ wasn't sure how many people would get it
Megamind was such a great film. I always got the impression that it wasn't so much he was forced into villainy as it was he found a niche that got him attention and couldn't really function outside of it which accidently forced metroman into a similar situation. I never assumed it was purely ego for metroman. I don't even really think he wanted to be a superhero. He already had everything he'd ever need or want; he was rich, handsome by human standards and popular even without anyone to protect people from. Megaminds attempt to find his place in society forced him into a defacto hero role when he seemed like a super chill surfer dude who would have been happy enough doing anything else and didn't even really want to hurt megamind. Even Roxanne. It's clear that megamind just didn't have the frame of reference to talk to her and try to get to know her outside of being a villian, so he kidnapped her for metroman to save her (because as she claimed she didn't even really like metroman in any romantic way he was probably too cocky for her) once megamind was actually talking to her they got along really well. Who's to say if he hadn't just tried to speak to her normally they wouldn't have hit it off even without any theatrics? Same with metroman actually; they could have been good friends since even through they look totally different they've got a lot in common, they're both not human and never knew their real parents, they're both very capable of doing great things (metroman with his strength and speed and megamind with his super intelligence), plus it's clear metroman never really had any ill will towards him by the pep talk he gave him and the fact he was always willing to play along and hold back in a fight. and the fact that while his mom seemed to love him his adopted dad didn't seem to care so they've probably both got bad father figures
I think the movie could be described in these two sentences: "What is better? To be born good, or to overcome your evil nature through great effort?" and "I see now that the circumstances of one's birth are irrelevant, it is what you do with the gift of life that determines who you are"
What interested me most in this video was at 9:00, God was written as 'god' with no capital G, but peasant was written as 'Peasant' with a capital P. I believe it shows more emphasis and status, basically means a peasant is higher than God, but who knows, could be a typo or autocorrect. Anywaye, great video Bionic!
I remember watching this in theaters as a kid and although I really enjoyed it, it was one of the movies that I enjoyed even more as I got older because I started to get a lot of the stuff that just goes over kids’ heads
So... yes, the whole Despicable Me and minions thing was a big reason it was discontinued (god damn facebook moms and their minion_meme.png), but people don't seem to realize that Megamind was 1 of 3 movies in Dreamworks' attempt to create a series of satirical movies and that the overall failure/underperformance of that series was what killed it. The other 2 movies were 1) Monsters vs Aliens, a satire of old monster movies (something along the lines of Marvel's Howling Commandoes, sorta) which underperformed and got a decent-ish nickelodeon series and number 2)... Shark Tale, a mafia movie satire... mhm but yeah Dreamworks thought it more prudent to simply drop the idea of satire movies after a flop, a let-down, and something that had a competitor too big to handle
i honestly think metroman's decision to bail when tons of peoples' lives were at stake IS the villainous thing for him to do; it just makes him a human villain rather than a god-like one
i mean you can also consider the fact that he never had a choice to be a hero and only did it for the fame, but he found out that he has other passions, so the sides kind of conflict on whether or not what he did was wrong
I disagree that it makes him a human villain, it just makes him human. What he did really was selfish but it was still for the sake of his mental health, and during the thought process, I think he knew that Megamind was kind-hearted enough to go through his same thought process of finding himself and giving him a chance to redeem himself, which, was correct. They did grow up together so I feel like Metroman _knew_ that Megamind wasn't a terrible person.
@@durratulaishah3703 You'd have to acknowledge that Megamind himself wants to pose as a villain, so even if he wanted to tell the audience that Megamind wasn't truly a villain, Megamind himself would make fun of him and the audience wouldn't believe him one bit, because even though nothing malicious really happened, he still did some pretty bad things. I'm not sure if it really was ego, but because of the thought process, I think he's sensible enough to know boundaries for his ego
Megamind was one of my favorite childhood movies of all time so it surprised me when not a whole lot of people talked about it when I was older. I'm glad it got more recognition today

Exactly
Also, in the school scene, Metroman is jamming on that ukulele. He's always loved music. He's just never had the time to dedicate himself to it.
I never even thought about that. Nice job!
And because he didnt have to change his logo too
When Bernard said "I'm not allowed to insult customers directly."
I felt that in my soul
I do it and they're the company I work for to fire me.
What a chad
I do it in my head 😅

They were both really good movies. Megamind is definitely the better movie though
In the Polish version of the movie, Megamind actually calls the city "Metroshitty", and I always found it hilarious
Dude that's hilarious. Thanks for sharing
This movie was so ahead of its time with Hal being a “nice guy”
capital N "Nice Guy"
Don't you mean angry incel? 😂
M'lady Man
Just goes to show that "nice guys" have always been a problem :/
Honestly though. The movie was amazing. I’m sad that it got overshadowed my Despicable Me. Both are good movies. I honestly think Megamind is better

Looking back I'm really glad that he actually didn't since it would betray what the movie stands for.

Ikr it was great. Especially because at that point he really does look like Markiplier
Whenever someone says something had them rolling I just think about someone (not laughing but) just rolling on the ground straight faced.
@@irishpotato9298 Lol that’s funny
It's sad Despicable Me is only acknowledge because of minions when it's should be about Gru becoming a single father of three orphan kids.
The scene where Megamind is infront of the museum as it blows up still to this day remains as Comedy gold in my eyes
lol
"OOOHHH I'M WAY TOO CLOSE! I'M GENUINELY SCARED RIGHT NOW!" gotta love this comedic big-brained little shit.
The amount of "Mega Man" in this video is too damn high. And the genuinely funny part is that you refer to Metro Man AND Megamind as Mega Man lmao. I love it
Did he do this on purpose? Had to be.
new drinking game: take a shot whenever pig says megaman instead of megamind
Yknow I was trying to keep count, but he did it so damn much I lost count,
don't! you might die
Beat me to it. 😂
Or mega man Insteae of metro man
I'm too young to drink, so I used water instead.
I'm hydrated.
Personally, Hal is one of Jonah Hill's best performances.
16:33 something I thought was a nice touch that’s not really outright stated.
Metro man might be enamored with music because it’s not something he instantly could do.
And it’s something he could Learn to be good at.
That’s a really good point! Beyond the joke of this God-like man being unable to play music, that very well could be WHY he wants to do it. Everything has always been handed to Metroman or comes supremely easy because of his superpowers. I imagine you would get tired of that after a time and want something to work to achieve. I think Metroman absolutely was feeling the same lack of purpose, of being pigeonholed, as Megamind was.
thats really cool
That way I could keep MMM! 🤣
Roxanne: Do you really think that I would ever be with you?
MM: .........no :/
To this day that scene still hits so hard.
Hits like a truck cause he was molding out to be the hero he doesn't want for Roxanne even thought he's the tyrant mayor he starts fixing shit that's IRL politician can't even fix garbage duty. My head cannon is the reason why Metroman is always free to roam around with his ego, before duking it out with megamind off screen is just fixing crime rates cause he just wants to **be the one only true villain bad guy** even the whole film there's only prisoners cause megamind and Metroman hasn't entered and fight off yet... megamind ironically became metrocity hero by fixing small things and reducing criminal to just him and Metroman, that's why the police where **SO INCOMPETENT** cause they never experienced situations with baddies roaming the city before because of megamind just wanting to be the city's only true villain clean it's dirt
This movie was a goddamn masterpiece.
It's *A HEAD* of it's time.
"Oh you're a villain alright, just not a super one"
Love that fuckin line
weird thing about the thing megaminds father says as in the commercial he actually finishes his sentence say he is destined for greatness which makes me wonder if they decided to change it later on
Probably
My guess is that it was for marketing. They probably wanted the full line otherwise it wouldn't seem as appealing without context.
Megamind saying Ollo at the end while taking away Titan’s powers was incredibly badass
Bionic Pig fun fact there is a single frame during when mega mind and metro man are on the big screens during the parade you can see metro man appear behind mega mind showing his super speed montage that is shown later in the movie where he contemplates why he’s doing everything it’s such a crazy detail and very easily missed.
Edit: another detail is as Roxan slowly becomes closer to mega mind personally her dress slowly changes colour from red to purple to blue at the end.
I love looking out for the little blur in the screen everytime we rewatch the movie, it's so fun
ive watched this movie every year since it came out and i never knew this
Wish which scene is it in? Is it the parade or the contemplation montage
@@mortonmckoy1787 it's when megamind tells minion to fire the weapon you can see that his screen "glitched" during it
That sounds like a horror movie
Imagine a dude with super strength moving so fast that he could snap your neck and go back across where he was without anyone seeing what happened.
Me and my brother have been quoting the scene where metroman got captured in the dome and he and Megamind argued for like a minute straight. One of the funniest scenes in the movie
17:34 "and there is no England"
I'm glad to see this movie getting the credit I've always felt it deserved.
I was literally just talking about megamind with one of my friends last night, my favorite part of metro man’s dynamic with megamind is is just metro man’s older brother type connection with megamind, it’s so sweet and I love it so much
My friend’s husband helped animate this. It was so great!
So cool, it's one of Dreamworks best ones.
no wonder he's a husband
When I first watched this movie 10 years ago, I wanted to have a Forget-Me-Stick to use on others. The older I become, the more I want to use it on myself.
They were so clever in the making of this film. The Directors Cut points out that in the scene where Metroman is “trapped” in the observatory, you can see him clip out and back in when he later said that he left to reflect on his life.
Love watching this after the queen died and you commenting on how much this movie was ahead of it's time lmao
Megamind is such a masterpiece and I feel like it's gotten even better over the years.
This movie was a whole mood.
I love the fact the more people are talking about Megamind these days. It didn't get enough love when it was new
Megamind is one of my favorite movies. It manages to be an entertaining, funny animated family film while also tackling some really BIG social issues: positive and negative socialization, classism, sexual harassment, stereotyping, relationship stigmas, and, to an extent, even racism. (Megamind is treated differently from a young age and assumed to be naturally bad because of his physical appearance.) Maintaining that balance is hard enough, but on top of that everything in this movie--the acting, dialogue, animation, soundtrack, and attention to detail--are all phenomenal. Why, amid the huge popularity of superhero films, has DreamWorks STILL not giving this gem a sequel?!
you may wanna rethink that last line 😢
“There is no Easter bunny, there is no tooth fairy, and there is no Queen of England”
I quote this all the time lol
loool
that aged like a fine milk
not anymore lmao, once again anoher example of the movie being a head of it's time.
I’m 27 and saw this movie for the first time about a year ago. Knew absolutely nothing about it and didn’t know any of the plot twists. Was absolutely delightful to watch a movie like this and thoroughly enjoy it
I love this movie, especially this scene 10:34 where he has yellow roses and that specific colors of roses symbolizes 'Friendship, apology, intense emotion, a broken heart, etc' I just love the tiny details in this movie 💛 I glad you talked about this movie and Rango
I've always said that the greatest crossover of our time was never Avengers. It was the crossover we never got.
Megamind and Monster vs Aliens. I'd kill to see that.
Space dads look is also a superman reference i guess.
Also my favorite quote from this movie: "oh you're a villain alright, just not a super one"
12:18 "Hal is basically if you gave an angry incel superpowers, imagine how dangerous that would be. OH HEY LOOK A DONKEY KONG REFERENCE." I almost did a spit take 😆
Well it is true cuz we elected Trump for two terms
I like to think Mega Mind as the wreck it Ralph of dreams work and it really nails the concept of we may play roles, but nothing stop us from breaking the shackles and climbing out of the rut and doing what we truly want to do
And that was a couple years before Disney released the first Wreck-It-Ralph. Technically Dreamworks beat Disney to it.
Here's my day so far; went to jail, lost the girl of my dreams, and got my butt kicked pretty good. Still, things could be a lot worse. Oh, that's right... I'm falling to my death. Guess they can't. How did it all come to this you ask? My end starts at the beginning, the very beginning! Yes, that's me. I had a fairly standard childhood. I came from what you might call a broken home, literally broken. I was eight days old and still living with my parents. How sad is that?! Clearly it was time to move on.
lol
16:03 I actually saw a trailer for this movie in the theaters where they said that Metroman didn’t die but retired so the twist that he wasn’t already dead was already spoiled for me.
BionicPIG: 'finally watches megamind'
Me: way to go, little buddy
Megaman and Megamind: Walking up to each other
Megaman and Megamind: Shakes hands for both being blue and legendary
I didn't actually watch this movie until 2016, and I am so glad I was a bit older upon my first viewing. I feel like as a teenager, I wouldn't have been able to fully appreciate the morals, lessons, and ideas presented, and I definitely wouldn't have enjoyed it to the... hm... MASSIVE EXTENT that I currently do. (I am a bit disappointed that I missed my chance to catch it on the big screen tho.)
Megamind will forever hold a very special place in my heart, and again, I must thank you profusely for this review. ❤️
I just love how the ending shows that metroman always looked at megamind as a friend/friendly rival not just an out right enemy
Pig in his ad be like: "I DO have a wife, and I DO sleep besides her, thats right, on the same bed. Because we married, and shes my wife."
Anyways, I love Megamind
wth
Makes me think maybe he has something to hide.
“he doesn't really treat people like triple” is officially the best line
He did it people! He witnessed something holy!!
btw, in the start of a movie where Metroman is about to "die", in a fraction of a second you can actually see Metroman behind Megamind on the screen he is on. kind of a neat little touch
If a sexual deviant had Superman’s powers that would be horrifying, especially if they had no self control. I’ll just let you think about the implications yourself.
just be lucky he was after only 1 woman
At least he respected consent 😌
Thats just Homelander from The Boys.
a man loses his head to sex in The Boys so yea
that,is every isekai hentai ever
Not only is it a banger of a movie but the memes that came from it were absolutely amazing as well!
Megamind. Truly a masterpiece that belongs in a high class museum
Once I got grounded or it got stuck (can’t remember) and could only watch what was in my DVD player and it was Megamind.. and it’s still one of my favorite movies
Megamind is one of my all time favorite movies that I cherish with all my heart that I recommend everyone to watch this masterpiece of a movie.
Megamind Is one of the best animated movies tbh
Fun Fact : Megamind didn't come from a race of villains, he just came from a grossly intelligent species that I theorize was using a Dyson sphere to harness the full energy of their star and ended up collapsing it into itself by pulling energy from the core through to the surface, causing a pressure difference that would immediately supernovae and collapse into a singularity
But hey, that's just a theory, a mind theory, thanks for listening
Love me
fun fact: theories arent facts
THATS A GOOD THEORY. I HAD NO IDEA
@@not.alexanderr actually the theory was just WHY the black hole was there, half the point of the movie is that he WASN'T supposed to be a villian, check yourself
@@memyselfandi7782 I mean they're obviously hyper intelligent compared to humans and we already have plans for a Dyson sphere for our sun so why wouldn't they y'know? Thx for liking it though ^^ wasn't sure how many people would get it
Omfg
Megamind was such a great film. I always got the impression that it wasn't so much he was forced into villainy as it was he found a niche that got him attention and couldn't really function outside of it which accidently forced metroman into a similar situation.
I never assumed it was purely ego for metroman. I don't even really think he wanted to be a superhero. He already had everything he'd ever need or want; he was rich, handsome by human standards and popular even without anyone to protect people from. Megaminds attempt to find his place in society forced him into a defacto hero role when he seemed like a super chill surfer dude who would have been happy enough doing anything else and didn't even really want to hurt megamind.
Even Roxanne. It's clear that megamind just didn't have the frame of reference to talk to her and try to get to know her outside of being a villian, so he kidnapped her for metroman to save her (because as she claimed she didn't even really like metroman in any romantic way he was probably too cocky for her) once megamind was actually talking to her they got along really well. Who's to say if he hadn't just tried to speak to her normally they wouldn't have hit it off even without any theatrics?
Same with metroman actually; they could have been good friends since even through they look totally different they've got a lot in common, they're both not human and never knew their real parents, they're both very capable of doing great things (metroman with his strength and speed and megamind with his super intelligence), plus it's clear metroman never really had any ill will towards him by the pep talk he gave him and the fact he was always willing to play along and hold back in a fight. and the fact that while his mom seemed to love him his adopted dad didn't seem to care so they've probably both got bad father figures
Watching this movie in theaters is a core memory for me. It was just me and my fam. Nobody else. We had a private viewing for megamind. Wow.
When Tighten said 'there is no queen of England' I felt that
I'm actually a prophet of this movie, I showed literally all of my friends Megamind lmao
Megamind evangelist
have you herd about our lord and saver megamind?@DraconasTenZHG
I think the movie could be described in these two sentences:
"What is better? To be born good, or to overcome your evil nature through great effort?" and
"I see now that the circumstances of one's birth are irrelevant, it is what you do with the gift of life that determines who you are"
What interested me most in this video was at 9:00, God was written as 'god' with no capital G, but peasant was written as 'Peasant' with a capital P. I believe it shows more emphasis and status, basically means a peasant is higher than God, but who knows, could be a typo or autocorrect.
Anywaye, great video Bionic!
This movie is so good that you can take screenshots of any frame and turn it into a meme
"There is no tooth fairy, there is no Easter bunny, and there is no war in ba sing se"
-Titan
I remember watching this in theaters as a kid and although I really enjoyed it, it was one of the movies that I enjoyed even more as I got older because I started to get a lot of the stuff that just goes over kids’ heads
16:26 scared the shit out of me jesus christ
Megamind is my favorite DreamWorks movie of all time, and I think it's really underrated.
I just like how he calls megamind megaman throughout the video
There he go’s he’s going to stab someone WITH HIS NEW NINJA KNIFE “Sponsor starts playing”
I’m glad I’m not the only one who still accidentally calls him mega man
I watched this movie every single day on repeat while my house was being built. It was the only movie we had for our tv
So... yes, the whole Despicable Me and minions thing was a big reason it was discontinued (god damn facebook moms and their minion_meme.png), but people don't seem to realize that Megamind was 1 of 3 movies in Dreamworks' attempt to create a series of satirical movies and that the overall failure/underperformance of that series was what killed it.
The other 2 movies were
1) Monsters vs Aliens, a satire of old monster movies (something along the lines of Marvel's Howling Commandoes, sorta) which underperformed and got a decent-ish nickelodeon series
and number 2)...
Shark Tale, a mafia movie satire... mhm
but yeah Dreamworks thought it more prudent to simply drop the idea of satire movies after a flop, a let-down, and something that had a competitor too big to handle
Fun fact: when metroman said he went into slow motion and we saw he walked behind megamind, in the actual scene you can see him for like 1 or 2 frames
i honestly think metroman's decision to bail when tons of peoples' lives were at stake IS the villainous thing for him to do; it just makes him a human villain rather than a god-like one
i mean you can also consider the fact that he never had a choice to be a hero and only did it for the fame, but he found out that he has other passions, so the sides kind of conflict on whether or not what he did was wrong
I disagree that it makes him a human villain, it just makes him human. What he did really was selfish but it was still for the sake of his mental health, and during the thought process, I think he knew that Megamind was kind-hearted enough to go through his same thought process of finding himself and giving him a chance to redeem himself, which, was correct. They did grow up together so I feel like Metroman _knew_ that Megamind wasn't a terrible person.
@@Пинагод
but he got caught up by his own ego to fully admit Megamind is not terrible person. (well, back when he was still a superhero)
@@durratulaishah3703 You'd have to acknowledge that Megamind himself wants to pose as a villain, so even if he wanted to tell the audience that Megamind wasn't truly a villain, Megamind himself would make fun of him and the audience wouldn't believe him one bit, because even though nothing malicious really happened, he still did some pretty bad things. I'm not sure if it really was ego, but because of the thought process, I think he's sensible enough to know boundaries for his ego
@@Пинагод you do have a point tho
Megamind was one of my favorite childhood movies of all time so it surprised me when not a whole lot of people talked about it when I was older. I'm glad it got more recognition today
I can't tell if he's calling him MegaMan as a joke or by mistake lmao
I love how Titan is actually Tighten. That is the best joke in this movie 😂
"Hello everyone my name marikiplier" lol love that
I literally still quote this movie all the time, I’m glad it’s finally getting the attention it deserves!
Fun fact: In the Trailer, you actually hear what the parents say, they said “You’re Detent for Greatness”.
So, they did want him to be evil, at least in a way.
