Well yeah. Megamind 2 never existed. Like seriously, Megamind Vs the Doom Syndicate isn’t even a sequel… it’s a pilot episode for gosh sake. Yes Megamind Rules is sequel series, but I think it’s more of a standalone series then a sequel series. If anything, none of the supposed sequels to Megamind, aren’t even sequels. They’re just tie-in shorts, spin offs, or just standalone stories using Megamind.
That 16 minute short film did a better job than the abomination that was the movie and it’s follow-up TV show It is the true successor of the original Meganind
One small part of the movie I really loved was when Megamind was in city hall and was talking about missing Metroman, he says “We did it Minion.” “Well, *you* did it sir” Megamind always saw Minion as an equal, if anything Minion saw himself as a servant more than MM ever did
yeah exactly!! minion saw himself as megamind’s minion/ caretaker but megamind saw him as his only friend the first breakup worked bc megamind thinks that minion doesn’t believe in him becoming good, but minion just thought that megamind no longer needed his care
I loved their brotherly relationship where Minion was always caring for Megamind and even puts up with him like many older brothers without parents do when caring for their younger bros.
I think the "evil mentor" and "past evil team" is kinda.. well.. yknow, he grew up in prison and we were shown exactly what led to him being evil, we don't need more backstory. I think it wouldve made more sense if they were just.. villains, maybe they heard of Megamind's abilities since he's a hero and stuff now, and they try to pretend to be good in order to get machines from him so they could bring their leader back from being basically dead.
the only way I would kinda buy it w/ megamind being a part of doom syndicate would be if he joined during his teenage years as if it's a afterschool club to mingle and meet new friends (but obvs fail bcs doom syndicate is a villain org) I like the idea of doom synidcate pretending to reform to get megamind's tech 👀 the trojan horse-type approach would've been funny to see
@@CarrieTooTired maybe you could even do something where half of them actually start to reform while the other half stay evil and it could lead to a rift between the group?
@@CarrieTooTired didn’t Metroman fly away with the school building when Megamind paint bombed the class? I guess it could be as simple as he put the school back.
My favorite ending with that is their attempts to reform leads them to realizing they actually want to reform Maybe with them reviving their actual evil leader and when they begin doing evil again they realizing they don’t want to be evil again so team up with megamind to fight the real villian I doubt that would ever happen yeah, but I love redemption arcs
28:44 They literally do this right in the first 10 minutes in the original movie! We see Metroman make popcorn, so Megamind makes an insane invention to make his own, and it goes wrong. All they would have to do is have him be like “This toaster could be so much more!” Then build something that accidentally burns someone’s house down. That way instead of him being dumb, it’s him still being a good person, but isn’t used to building stuff not to fight Metroman. Then you have it paid off at the end when Megamind builds that person a new house, to show how he’s learned.
You know what would've been great if the writing was better and they allowed Roxanne and Megamind to be a proper couple through and through? *A date episode* Can you imagine? Megamind,as himself,planning a date. It could be so funny and so endearing to see him be so damn extra in showing his affections but overdoing it and causing mayhem unintentionally He breaks down the door for a great entrance with loud music and a huge bouquet of flowers. He does way too many dishes all of them Roxanne's favorites. He attempts to do something like literally make the stars look like her face And then it ends with a way quieter moment with him opening up about how she's the best thing that has ever happened to him and he feels this need to make it as obvious as possible WE COULD'VE HAD IT ALL
the quiet moment ends w/ him giving her something small like a necklace/ ring and she said that it’s her favorite gift bc she can have it w/ her all the time I- it could also be a good lesson abt dating and how sincerity is the most important thing 💖
I think them dating also couldve been a good way to tie Keiko (the young influencer girl, yes, i had to look up her name) into the dynamic. Im a sucker for found family so maybe im biased but the idea of Roxanne and Megamind being like...surrogate parents or godparents to this young girl who had a bad start with life and is trying to be better and break stereotypes just like her hero would be a really sweet dynamic (in a hypothetical) These sequels honestly just feel like a bunch of good concepts that were given to people that just couldnt work with them, which sadly happens a lot
@@RikkiLove0317 We really couldve thooo Keiko also couldve been used to tie in the furious five (i dont remember their names lol) instead of just having them exist to break canon lol Here's my idea for a Megamind sequel series, just to show how easily they could've brainstormed something sensible lol: The furious five are an infamous group of bandits who were once simple robbers but upgraded to villains after an encounter leading to them getting superpowers (up to whatever the universe has in store, Megamind is a literal alien so a lot of things are possible). The world has heard of their ability to scare entire cities of people into submission and silence, and Metro City is no different. Keiko is the biological daughter of one of the furious five (perhaps her mom was married to one of them before they became a bad guy), and to protect her future, Keiko's mother moves to Metro City to get far away from the crew before they tried influencing her any more than they already have. However, everyone in Metro City recognizes her surname, so Keiko and her mother are isolated and her mother is honestly lucky enough to just have a job. Being alone, held back by a choice that wasnt even hers, and already having bad tendencies taught to her, Keiko acts out and commits crimes, becoming the very thing she feared. This is where Megamind and Roxanne come in. Of course, being the protectors of the city, they likely not only know about the furious five but also the criminal activity within their own city. So, they'd see this random young girl doing evil things for seemingly no reason- until they see her surname, then it all makes sense. Megamind, having been through a phase where he acted stereotypically to fit a mold others expected of him, sees right through her behavior, and tries to get involved in her punishments and rehabilitation, wanting to help guide her off this path. The two bond over social media, the only place Keiko can truly be herself, hence why shes rather obsessed with it compared to everyone else. Megamind and Roxanne become a second set of parents for Keiko, and both she and her mother are in much safer hands. But uh oh, Keiko's dad selfishly wants his daughter back because they wanna indoctrinate her into villainy, and receive a city to terrorize in the process: two birds, one stone, starting the conflict of Keiko, her mother, her "uncle Chum" as she calls him, and second set of parents Megamind and Roxanne trying to defeat and put an end to the reign of the furious five. I went a bit overboard with details but my point was that they really could've cooked but seemingly just didnt want to and were satisfied with the housefire they caused lol
The rollercoaster of emotions that was the confusion of finding out a Megamind 2 exists then disappointment that it failed then sadness at seeing the sad PNG was brutal and I haven't even played the video yet.
20:20 I adore this line read, because to Roxanne and most normal people, it sounds like a deliberate joke. But because it's Megamind, no one knows he's being completely serious, which makes the gag even funnier. When he's cosplaying Bernard, his utter social ineptitude and arrogance inadvertently comes across as wittiness and sarcasm, and he has NO idea that his "charming personality" is all a complete fluke. The joke works on so many levels. This movie is a goddamn masterpiece.
THEY SLAUGHTERED MY BOY. Is this what Cedric Diggory's father felt like? Rest in peace Robert Pattinson, you would have hated Megamind 2. I love this, I love you.
I was so pleased and confy with you talking about the ONE AND ONLY EXISTING Megamind movie, that i tottaly forgot what the video was about and my little happiness moment was crushed
Its a shame that they completely ignored the original movie in the, "Sequel". I could see so many interesting takes on Megamind learning on how to be a good hero. Imagine if Metro Man comes back and tries to make his debut as Music Man but gets found out immediately but Megamind covers for him by implying that his sun ray sapped his powers, supporting his ambition. Then you could still introduce the Doom Syndicate but have them target Metro Man, forcing Megamind to try to save him while covering for him, giving opportunities for him to learn but also for Metro Man to provide support/lessons on his journey.
The thing that bothers me the most about this is that Megamind was willing to use his dehydration gun on a trio of people dressed as fish But he couldn’t do that same thing with the Doom Syndicate because they’re not one villain like Tighten sound logic
They fumbled the dehyration gun instead of explain its lack of use with it breaking or specifically stating why the whole team could not have it used on, they just did nothing. first film it worked with it being fairly obvious on why it would not work on metroman or titan.
@@randomprotag9329 best case scenario, he could have argued that shadows and magma aren't that easy to dehydrate, but mr. mime would still be fair game, and thundurus would be a maybe
The toaster thing is a common gag in stories about super genius characters. The idea is that they're so accustomed to solving complex things that simple things are incomprehensible to them.
Roxan’s outfit colors changing is something I never noticed. Mind blown 🤯. Also it’s true that Megamind IS a very positive person, often starting interactions with compliments.
I appreciate the way you edit quotes; it brings a lot more focus to the parts you're discussing and maintains the video's pacing. I haven't seen it edited like that elsewhere and hope it catches on more.
Ah yes, it was definitely a smart idea to get 10 middle aged guys to decide how to relate to the youth, I bet next season (if there is one) they are gonna have a Skibbidy Toilet reference
After Dreamwork television did to Megamind, i'm imagining what they would do to rise of the guardians! Turn Jack into an annoying kid who always jealous of Santa because Christmas got all the attention and not him; turn Bunny into a lazy rabbit who doesn't care about his friends or work, turn Tooth into a pretentious girl who talks really slow. Thank god they didn't put their filthy hands on this movie 😌
The dehydration gun would basically solved everything, but Megamind lost his brain cells in this “sequel” and “tv-show” for some reason. I think it’s brain rot.
Ok, usually I let my anxiety bully me out of making TH-cam comments, but I am SO stoked to hear that you’re covering Nimona next!! I finally got to watch it for the first time a few weeks ago and I had no one to freak out about it with, but I love everything about that movie. I can’t wait to see your thoughts! ^^
It's also weird that this only takes place a few days after the movie and they somehow invented cell phones, and streaming became as influential as it is now. From what I remember social media wasn't really a thing back then, and everyone was using flip phones in the first movie. What timeline is this?
Schaffrilas's review is about how the supposed Megamind 2/Rules failed as an enjoyable experience This review is how they failed as a sequel. I would make a comment about how we need a 3rd to complete the trinity but what would the 3rd review be about.
God they disrespected the masterpiece that was Megamind with the best villain ever (representing how guys often can act nowadays when rejected) and they removed the fun character that was Megamind.. I haven’t watched it but I’m not gonna because it’s just sad to me.. so many movies are losing their spark. It’s all just sequels, cash grabs, etc.
Spiderverse is probably one of the only movies I’m excited for right now but seeing the production of the film is even scary.. why do good things have to be forced and everything else is flat almost brain rot like garbage if that makes sense
I am so glad im not the only one who thinks like this, i normally dont like movie review channels because i grew up watching movies as a outlet for hard times, but i really enjoyed hearing your thoughts and analysis. Its great! 😊
26:06 Theres also an important part here, this scene is the only part where the baby dosent cry at the sight of megamind, in every other scene that the baby is in, when megamind appears, is bawls its eyes out, but here, it dosent, it shows that the civillians are no longer scared of him
My nephew and I watched this together, and as soon as it started he said "Oh!!! That's the Luck girl!!!" You've been remembered 🤝 Loved the video, he really enjoyed it!
Not gonna lie, the intro does kinda slap (when I’m high). My issue was not even the “sequel” itself, but the promotional stuff. “Your favorite characters are back. You’re welcome.” Just seems like outta spite. Like an adult caving into a kid’s tantrum type of response. They do it, but they’re irritated that they think half-assing it counts as them actually doing it. Like that Futurama gag where Bender gave the sick gang “chicken soup”, and it’s chicken and water. That’s how the response feels like. Honestly, it shouldn’t have been done. It purely feels like it was made out of spite. If the show is gonna be passive aggressive towards the audience, who never asked for it, then it’s not worth it.
yeah I subscribed from your wish video. I don't really watch movies like this but you seem really invested in them and its fun to listen to someone who clearly knows and cares about what they're talking about. It's obv you've been a huge fan for a while and the passion (and frustration) feels genuine. Keep it up and I'm sure your channel will really take off probably
29:49 omg you made such a good point on the joke and I’d like to expand on it. Megamind is intelligent. But Roxxane is wise. Like dnd. So he isn’t the best at jokes and quips (I swear I recall him being bad at making retorts like evil is a dish best served cold) so the idea of him making the bad joke but then Rox swinging in with the better one fits them so dang well. What a perfect example of killing the character for a cheap laugh when a better one was right around the corner! (Sorry if this has been said before lol)
13:59 to be fair, he knows megamind enough to know that he isnt really trying to hurt Roxanne and its just "the villain thing". Whereas titan is shown to be VERY willing to do grevious violence
TH-cam recommended this to me literally 2 seconds after it released, nice! I always knew that the Megamind sequel/show was bad, but changing minion's name and reversing Roxanne and Megamind's relationship are such huge slaps to the face of the original movie. If the writing wasn't bad enough it really does look like the writers never took the time of day to watch and appreciate the original. I mean, I wouldn't give the original movie a 10/10 rating, but it was still way better than it had any right to be and deserved more that a cheap kids show cash grab. I shudder at the thought of some toddlers growing up with this as their introduction to the Megamind IP. In a way, I do feel really bad for the artists that had to make this show. I know that they got paid and everything, and it probably is just another thing in their pile of projects that they've worked on. But for me, I like taking pride in the things I play a part in creating, saying "I was a part of that", and having the satisfaction of after years of production having created something that truly impacts people. It's why I'm trying to go down the career route that I've been working on. Nothing can beat that infinite satisfaction for me of so much work boiling down to just a few minutes of something truly awesome. At least for me, I feel bad for the creatives here because I certainly would much rather have anything I work on impact people rather than become a universal laughing stock for the internet to get angry about. Great review, and great singing voice too! XD Really looking forward to the Nimona review! Was actually a really good movie, and way more mature and hard hitting than I expected going in from the trailers. Also, the duo dynamic between Ballister and Nimona was genuinely hilarious. :)
the way that the characters look and move in the doom syndicate remind me of those ai SpongeBob episodes that are like infinitely streaming on TH-cam- kind of soulless
You made so many amazing points so far! I never even noticed the colour symbolism, and you’ve shown so much light on Megamind’s character as well as light on the others! (If I’m saying that correctly lol.) God, it’s honestly tragic how much the sequel/show trashed the original. It makes me wonder if the sequel/show makers even rewatched or watched the first at all. If I made movies I’d want things to be accurate as possible.
After watching a few videos now I just came to notice something: I like people complaining or critiquing things I dislike for long periods of time. A nearly hour long thing about something I thought was bad? That’s just exactly ideal man
great joke for the donut man episode would have been Megamind (our beloved boy) saying: "What? harm me? No, he meant that He was going to pay me back for the ambulance cost." "Not to mention it would've been the completely wrong tone for a revenge line." *Does two different versions of the line "See?"
The worst part about this whole thing is that they put "You're welcome" as if they just dropped the most significant cinematic "sequel" of the year. Its like... Yeahhh... no thank you?
Wow ! I fish I knew your channel sooner because the quality of the video, writing and editing are just magnificent ! It's a really good work, hope you keep the flame of your pasion, because we can see it in you video !
One thing that I noticed immediately from the trailers and more in the video, is the cars. Why are there suddenly current makes and models? The original movie was throwing a vibe that it was in the late 90s with the old Chevy Caprice looking police cars with rotary light bars. The same was seen in civilian traffic. Older box shaped cars. Now everything is 'current day'? But it's been 2 days?! Even the News Van changed! Compare the police car at 7:06 with the original movie. Car nerd moment done!
This is the first video of yours ive ever seen and you immediately won me over with the reference to stitch the movie (which is a FAR BETTER sequel movie/setup for a sequel show than this is)
I know I am like 4 weeks late, but while the Megamind Vs. The Doom Syndicate was really ass, they gave us Lord Nighty-Knight, who also at some point said "Yeah, imagine. All of us living together, always for eternity. Forever. *Until the last star falls from the Heavens and beyond that.* Together. All of us. Just me and my evil friend, living in infinite darkness."
this reminds me of the netflix boss baby show- but like that's for kids.. the show wasn't made 14 years after the boss baby movie unlike the megamind show-
This was absolutely phenomenal awesome job with the video I absolutely love everything about this keep on making Spectacular videos and don't stop making possibilities love your Channel because too me it is super unique.✨️🙏👍❤️❤️❤️❤️🔥🔥🔥🔥
i had put this video on while drawing and zoned out when i was suddenly hit with schaffrillas shouting "DEHYDRATION GUN" it scared me so badly and definitely brought me back to attention
This was really well done. I really liked how you didn’t just mock the show and actually put in the time to dissect the character traits and compare them to the sequels. It really made me think differently and was an awesome listen.
Hi Carrie, I'm a new viewer and I really enjoy watching your takes on these movies with your calming voice - but I was wondering if it would be possible to lower the volume on the edits and clips because they hurt my ears ;-; I don't want this to come off as rude because I've been binging your videos, but I get jumpscared everytime since I have to turn up youtube to hear your voice, but there's a loud edit. Anyways - great video nonetheless! Made me appreciate Megamind a whole lot more
To be honest, I don't feel like Megamind needs a sequel. Sometimes I feel like a story is so satisfyingly completed that I don't want a follow-up. It's the same with Ratatouille or The Iron Giant, if those got sequels I wouldn't know what to think.
I wouldn't mind if they weren't together because he betrayed her trust in the first movie (no idea about the second) but it would be great character development to then show how a healthy relationship forms and how to build back trust with the person you love the most. but who am I kidding no one in Hollywood has/ even knows what a healthy relationship is. They got rid of those when clawing their way to the top.

Then you could still introduce the Doom Syndicate but have them target Metro Man, forcing Megamind to try to save him while covering for him, giving opportunities for him to learn but also for Metro Man to provide support/lessons on his journey.
Thats a genuis idea!
I love that idea!!!

The thing that bothers me the most about this is that Megamind was willing to use his dehydration gun on a trio of people dressed as fish
But he couldn’t do that same thing with the Doom Syndicate because they’re not one villain like Tighten
sound logic
They fumbled the dehyration gun instead of explain its lack of use with it breaking or specifically stating why the whole team could not have it used on, they just did nothing. first film it worked with it being fairly obvious on why it would not work on metroman or titan.

The toaster thing is a common gag in stories about super genius characters. The idea is that they're so accustomed to solving complex things that simple things are incomprehensible to them.
Roxan’s outfit colors changing is something I never noticed. Mind blown 🤯. Also it’s true that Megamind IS a very positive person, often starting interactions with compliments.

It's still 4, funnily enough, but just hours instead of minutes.

I appreciate the way you edit quotes; it brings a lot more focus to the parts you're discussing and maintains the video's pacing. I haven't seen it edited like that elsewhere and hope it catches on more.

Ah yes, it was definitely a smart idea to get 10 middle aged guys to decide how to relate to the youth, I bet next season (if there is one) they are gonna have a Skibbidy Toilet reference
Wake up babe! CarrieTooTired upload a new video
oh damn this is 45 minutes? this is gonna be a fun watch for sure
Oh shoot
After Dreamwork television did to Megamind, i'm imagining what they would do to rise of the guardians! Turn Jack into an annoying kid who always jealous of Santa because Christmas got all the attention and not him; turn Bunny into a lazy rabbit who doesn't care about his friends or work, turn Tooth into a pretentious girl who talks really slow. Thank god they didn't put their filthy hands on this movie 😌
…why must you wound me where it hurts
The dehydration gun would basically solved everything, but Megamind lost his brain cells in this “sequel” and “tv-show” for some reason. I think it’s brain rot.
Yes!

Ok, usually I let my anxiety bully me out of making TH-cam comments, but I am SO stoked to hear that you’re covering Nimona next!! I finally got to watch it for the first time a few weeks ago and I had no one to freak out about it with, but I love everything about that movie. I can’t wait to see your thoughts! ^^
thanks for commenting 💖
I was listening to this at work and genuinely got jumpscared by the Schaffrillas clip.
Honestly addicted to watching people tear this god awful movie apart :)
The way CarrieTooTired started singing despicable me at the start is gold
It's also weird that this only takes place a few days after the movie and they somehow invented cell phones, and streaming became as influential as it is now. From what I remember social media wasn't really a thing back then, and everyone was using flip phones in the first movie. What timeline is this?
Schaffrilas's review is about how the supposed Megamind 2/Rules failed as an enjoyable experience
This review is how they failed as a sequel.
I would make a comment about how we need a 3rd to complete the trinity but what would the 3rd review be about.
how megamind rules/2 fails at existence
1:30 It's extremely impressive that you somehow reverse engineered Squidward's lip flap to match what you were saying.
1:02 you can hear her trying to resist the temptation of making a joke here
@@NobleRanger_ Though so too
God they disrespected the masterpiece that was Megamind with the best villain ever (representing how guys often can act nowadays when rejected) and they removed the fun character that was Megamind.. I haven’t watched it but I’m not gonna because it’s just sad to me.. so many movies are losing their spark. It’s all just sequels, cash grabs, etc.
Spiderverse is probably one of the only movies I’m excited for right now but seeing the production of the film is even scary.. why do good things have to be forced and everything else is flat almost brain rot like garbage if that makes sense
I am so glad im not the only one who thinks like this, i normally dont like movie review channels because i grew up watching movies as a outlet for hard times, but i really enjoyed hearing your thoughts and analysis. Its great! 😊
glad you enjoyed it 💖
26:06 Theres also an important part here, this scene is the only part where the baby dosent cry at the sight of megamind, in every other scene that the baby is in, when megamind appears, is bawls its eyes out, but here, it dosent, it shows that the civillians are no longer scared of him
Definitely looking forward to nimona vid from you. Glad you got almost 1.5k between recording and uploading
thank you 💖 there’s quite a lot to talk abt w/ that one honestly
"Greater value alien Astarion"
That's it, close the site, there's no better quote coming around.
My nephew and I watched this together, and as soon as it started he said "Oh!!! That's the Luck girl!!!" You've been remembered 🤝 Loved the video, he really enjoyed it!
asfhlslk that's very sweet, you've made my day 💕
Not gonna lie, the intro does kinda slap (when I’m high).
My issue was not even the “sequel” itself, but the promotional stuff. “Your favorite characters are back. You’re welcome.” Just seems like outta spite. Like an adult caving into a kid’s tantrum type of response. They do it, but they’re irritated that they think half-assing it counts as them actually doing it. Like that Futurama gag where Bender gave the sick gang “chicken soup”, and it’s chicken and water. That’s how the response feels like.
Honestly, it shouldn’t have been done. It purely feels like it was made out of spite. If the show is gonna be passive aggressive towards the audience, who never asked for it, then it’s not worth it.
yeah I subscribed from your wish video. I don't really watch movies like this but you seem really invested in them and its fun to listen to someone who clearly knows and cares about what they're talking about. It's obv you've been a huge fan for a while and the passion (and frustration) feels genuine. Keep it up and I'm sure your channel will really take off probably
aww thank you 💖
I LOVE the shot of megamind in the thumbnail, it looks like his version of the kingdom hearts icecream tower
29:49 omg you made such a good point on the joke and I’d like to expand on it. Megamind is intelligent. But Roxxane is wise. Like dnd. So he isn’t the best at jokes and quips (I swear I recall him being bad at making retorts like evil is a dish best served cold) so the idea of him making the bad joke but then Rox swinging in with the better one fits them so dang well. What a perfect example of killing the character for a cheap laugh when a better one was right around the corner! (Sorry if this has been said before lol)
HIYA! :D. SO HAPPY TO SEE ANOTHER VIDEO FROM YOU! 🥺
Howdy 👋 hope you like it!!
13:59 to be fair, he knows megamind enough to know that he isnt really trying to hurt Roxanne and its just "the villain thing". Whereas titan is shown to be VERY willing to do grevious violence
TH-cam recommended this to me literally 2 seconds after it released, nice!
I always knew that the Megamind sequel/show was bad, but changing minion's name and reversing Roxanne and Megamind's relationship are such huge slaps to the face of the original movie. If the writing wasn't bad enough it really does look like the writers never took the time of day to watch and appreciate the original. I mean, I wouldn't give the original movie a 10/10 rating, but it was still way better than it had any right to be and deserved more that a cheap kids show cash grab. I shudder at the thought of some toddlers growing up with this as their introduction to the Megamind IP.
In a way, I do feel really bad for the artists that had to make this show. I know that they got paid and everything, and it probably is just another thing in their pile of projects that they've worked on. But for me, I like taking pride in the things I play a part in creating, saying "I was a part of that", and having the satisfaction of after years of production having created something that truly impacts people. It's why I'm trying to go down the career route that I've been working on. Nothing can beat that infinite satisfaction for me of so much work boiling down to just a few minutes of something truly awesome. At least for me, I feel bad for the creatives here because I certainly would much rather have anything I work on impact people rather than become a universal laughing stock for the internet to get angry about.
Great review, and great singing voice too! XD
Really looking forward to the Nimona review! Was actually a really good movie, and way more mature and hard hitting than I expected going in from the trailers. Also, the duo dynamic between Ballister and Nimona was genuinely hilarious. :)
-good to know my singing gags were liked haha-

That was an amazing breakdown on the Megamind IP. I knew you were something special, so glad I stuck around with you ❤💜
the way that the characters look and move in the doom syndicate remind me of those ai SpongeBob episodes that are like infinitely streaming on TH-cam- kind of soulless
I like how everyone who covers this refers to Metro city as Metrocity like Megamind does, lol
You made so many amazing points so far! I never even noticed the colour symbolism, and you’ve shown so much light on Megamind’s character as well as light on the others! (If I’m saying that correctly lol.) God, it’s honestly tragic how much the sequel/show trashed the original.
It makes me wonder if the sequel/show makers even rewatched or watched the first at all. If I made movies I’d want things to be accurate as possible.
After watching a few videos now I just came to notice something: I like people complaining or critiquing things I dislike for long periods of time.
A nearly hour long thing about something I thought was bad? That’s just exactly ideal man
Gonna watch this soon! Happy to see you put more content out!

Okay, I let Auto from Wall-E slide but I can't let this slide. I WILL @ you and you better explain.
*did i stutter*
@@CarrieTooTired N-no.. But.. but explain?
My headcanon is that every character suffered severe brain damage between The Button of Doom and this
great joke for the donut man episode would have been Megamind (our beloved boy) saying:
"What? harm me? No, he meant that He was going to pay me back for the ambulance cost."
"Not to mention it would've been the completely wrong tone for a revenge line."
*Does two different versions of the line
"See?"
I had no idea there was a sequel. I would like to go back to having no idea.

I'm sorry but "greater value alien astarion" had me laughing- thaf caught me so off guard so thank you
The worst part about this whole thing is that they put "You're welcome" as if they just dropped the most significant cinematic "sequel" of the year. Its like... Yeahhh... no thank you?

Sorry if I don't have a good writing 😅 I'm a newbie in english and learn trought video like you, so my vocabulary and translation is limited.
your comment is very sweet, thank you so much 💖 and welcome to the club!
this got the megamind fans feel like the star wars when the disney sequels started
One thing that I noticed immediately from the trailers and more in the video, is the cars. Why are there suddenly current makes and models? The original movie was throwing a vibe that it was in the late 90s with the old Chevy Caprice looking police cars with rotary light bars. The same was seen in civilian traffic. Older box shaped cars. Now everything is 'current day'? But it's been 2 days?! Even the News Van changed! Compare the police car at 7:06 with the original movie. Car nerd moment done!
As someone who’s not a car person, thanks for the info!
I think Metroman also chose to do music because its the one thing he isn't good at. He can actually improve and challenge himself in something.
This is the first video of yours ive ever seen and you immediately won me over with the reference to stitch the movie (which is a FAR BETTER sequel movie/setup for a sequel show than this is)
I know I am like 4 weeks late, but while the Megamind Vs. The Doom Syndicate was really ass, they gave us Lord Nighty-Knight, who also at some point said
"Yeah, imagine. All of us living together, always for eternity. Forever. *Until the last star falls from the Heavens and beyond that.* Together. All of us. Just me and my evil friend, living in infinite darkness."
I got an idea, we just need to brainwash ourselves into forgetting this exist. Kinda like there is no war in Ba Sing Se.
This channel definitely deserves the spike in subs, it’s been consistently quality~

this entire movie looks like a really long game cutscene
this reminds me of the netflix boss baby show- but like that's for kids.. the show wasn't made 14 years after the boss baby movie unlike the megamind show-
This was absolutely phenomenal awesome job with the video I absolutely love everything about this keep on making Spectacular videos and don't stop making possibilities love your Channel because too me it is super unique.✨️🙏👍❤️❤️❤️❤️🔥🔥🔥🔥

i had put this video on while drawing and zoned out when i was suddenly hit with schaffrillas shouting "DEHYDRATION GUN"
it scared me so badly and definitely brought me back to attention
bad news. They came out with more Megamind rules episodes. AND IT HAS METROMAN
This was really well done. I really liked how you didn’t just mock the show and actually put in the time to dissect the character traits and compare them to the sequels. It really made me think differently and was an awesome listen.
thank you sm 💕
I can tell you're devastated by the thumbnail alone, Megamind needed to be much more babygirl 💅
Why is Minion the only one who’s shaded like he is in the only movie that exists of Megamind?
Hi Carrie, I'm a new viewer and I really enjoy watching your takes on these movies with your calming voice - but I was wondering if it would be possible to lower the volume on the edits and clips because they hurt my ears ;-; I don't want this to come off as rude because I've been binging your videos, but I get jumpscared everytime since I have to turn up youtube to hear your voice, but there's a loud edit. Anyways - great video nonetheless! Made me appreciate Megamind a whole lot more
To be honest, I don't feel like Megamind needs a sequel. Sometimes I feel like a story is so satisfyingly completed that I don't want a follow-up. It's the same with Ratatouille or The Iron Giant, if those got sequels I wouldn't know what to think.
so nice to watch a host with such a bright personality. enjoyable.
aww thank you 💕
I wouldn't mind if they weren't together because he betrayed her trust in the first movie (no idea about the second) but it would be great character development to then show how a healthy relationship forms and how to build back trust with the person you love the most. but who am I kidding no one in Hollywood has/ even knows what a healthy relationship is. They got rid of those when clawing their way to the top.
