Huh, I thought they were once said to be artificial beings.
Yeah I thought Gru created them artificially, but, it was never expressed in either film, so I suppose I can let that slide.
I'm excited.
I was pretty iffy on it (especially since the minions were originally supposed to be altered corn kernels), but after seeing the trailer, I'm looking forward to it.
I'm still gonna call them Twinkiemen.
Bananamen.
They do become Bananamen through Meat-O-Vision!
Anyone noticed Bob has Mismatched Eyes in the trailer? Or maybe I'm just seeing things?
You aren't the only one. He does have mismatched eyes.
I'm not sure I see the difference.
Pass on this one, I will.
You know, I have to wonder why Pit is obsessed with this site. It’s gonna ruin his life!Epic thread title.
It is sometimes an appropriate response to reality to go insane.I thought we already had a thread about the Minions, but I'll let it slide, since the title made me laugh so hard.
Confirmed Bachelors: the dramedy hit of 1883!I too prefer the "genetically engineered corn" origin for the Minions, but it was never official, I think. I'm more annoyed by the whole "without an Evil Master to serve they might perish" thing. Really? Happiness in Slavery is a thing in this movie?
Still, I won't judge the film until I know more, especially about what other characters there might be. The Despicable Me movies have always been about fun and charm, and it makes sense this one will too. Plus: being set in the 50s has a great potential for a James Bond style story!

I'm just looking forward to Gru. It seems to be about Gru as a kid, so I'm not as iffy now as I used to be.
All right. I'm liking this idea more now.
I have to admit, while I'm not sold on the concept yet, Sandra Bullock nails the role - much better than I expected.
Reminder: Offscreen Villainy does not count towards Complete Monster.The plot seems intriguing now. Our villainess really shows off her recognition.
Sandra Bullock is amazing!
Hey, who can say anything bad about the minions?
I love those little buggers.
Your momma's so dumb she thinks oral sex means talking dirty.
Since someon requested a separate thread, here it is. Apparently Sony is making a spinoff starring the Minions. Thoughts?
