You deserve someone who checks up on you when you’re sad. Who makes an effort to make sure you’re okay because they know you’re having a bad day. You deserve someone who cares about you.
What the gifs don’t convey is the soundtrack: the opening to Guns N Roses “Welcome to the Jungle.” Perf.
This movie was so fucking underrated. I blame the marketing. They tried to sell it as a face-off between Will Ferrell’s character and Brad Pitt’s, all because they didn’t want to spoil the twist: that Metro Man dies 10 minutes in. But it’s not that much of a twist, because the entire story is about what happens if the villain actually wins, and what makes a villain in the first place. I think it also got buried by Despicable Me, which came out at the same time, but this is infinitely superior.
Seriously, if you’ve never seen Megamind, go watch it right now.
the soundtrack? excellent. the voice acting? superb. the humor? diamonds. and the “true” villain? this movie has a pretty rad message to it.
it was absolutely buried by dispicable me, which had minions. the minions are marketable to a fault. all you have to do to sell something is slap a minion on it. megamind didn’t have an equivalent and it didn’t have steve carrell doing an annoying accent either.
they were presented as two versions of the same story archetype, but the reality is that dispicable me is a story about families and adoption, while megamind is a story about agency and identity. when marketed side by side as two attempts at a villain-is-actually-a-good-guy story, megamind looks like it fails to measure up; but they are actually two very different movies.
