Guess they can't. How did it all come to this, you ask? My end starts at the beginning... the '''very''' beginning..."''

10Megamind (Creator/WillFerrell), [[CardCarryingVillain the greatest villain in the world]], is locked in an eternal battle against the seemingly [[ParodyStu invincible and perfect]] Metro Man (Creator/BradPitt). However, in their last confrontation over go-to DamselInDistress Roxanne Ritchi (Creator/TinaFey), Megamind finally ([[TheGoodGuysAlwaysWin and surprisingly]]) manages to defeat his ArchNemesis.
11
12After initially gloating over his victory, Megamind soon realizes that his [[BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor greatest wish]] is [[BeingEvilSucks not all it's been cracked up to be]]. With the help of his loyal Minion (Creator/DavidCross), Megamind decides to create a new hero to make his status meaningful. He accidentally shoots Roxanne's awkward cameraman Hal Stewart (Creator/JonahHill) with the serum and trains him to become a new hero called Titan. Unfortunately, "[[FunWithHomophones Tighten]]", instead of using his powers for good, sets out for mass destruction, positioning Megamind to save the day for the first time in his life.

14A SequelSeries, ''WesternAnimation/MegamindRules'', and its PilotMovie ''WesternAnimation/MegamindVsTheDoomSyndicate'', debuted exclusively on Creator/{{Peacock}}, following Megamind attempting to become a social media influencer as well as a true superhero. The original film’s writers, Alan Schoolcraft and Brent Simons, return as executive producers.

16Not to be confused with ''VideoGame/MegaMan'' (despite the protagonist's blue-ness as well as the fact that the [[HeelFaceTurn villain's]] name is "''Mega'' Mind" and the hero's name is "Metro ''[[SomethingPerson Man]]''").
