History Awesome / DespicableMe3

----

** This moment is awesome in a more personal way because the reason Lucy joined the AVL was to find the villain who murdered her parents. And it's still unknown if she has or hasn't accomplished that, but the very fact is she was willing to throw away her meaningful job for her husband.

** [[spoiler:''Everything'' Lucy does to rescue the girls in the climax -- Jumping off of Dru's flying car, running across expanding bubble gum rooftops, swinging on a crane, and scaling a collapsing building.]]

** [[spoiler: When they arrive at Hollywood during the climatic battle, they all jump out on top of Bratt's giant gum bubbles, and work together to destroy them, saving the city.]]

* [[spoiler: Dru Gru gets one during the climax. When Bratt's giant robot is about to kill his brother, he singlehandedly destroys it from the inside.]]

** What's more awesome, you ask? Dru was TheMillstone during his and Gru's heist to recover the diamond from Bratt's lair, therefore almost getting them captured, but in the climax, [[spoiler:he TookALevelInBadass and became one of the factors in stopping Bratt's [[EvilPlan evil plan]].]]
* [[spoiler: When confronting Bratt at the robot's wreckage, Gru is held at gunpoint by Bratt, leading to their climactic duel.]]

-->'''Gru:''' You know what? I got two words for you: [[spoiler: Dance fight.]]

** Cue them [[spoiler: having an epic battle to [[Music/{{Madonna}} "Into the Groove"]] while doing 80s break-dancing.]]
** [[spoiler: The fight ends with Gru blasting Bratt with his own Keytar laser, playing the guitar riff of [[Music/DireStraits "Money for Nothing."]]]]

''([[spoiler: Gru plays a powerful riff of [[Music/DireStraits "Money for Nothing,"]] blasting Bratt away, [[LaserGuidedKarma blowing away his clothes, leaving him naked and floating in his own gum]], as AVL Choppers arrive to arrest him]])''\\

* The [[AndTheAdventureContinues ending]] itself -- [[spoiler:Dru and the Minions steal Gru's ship to commit villainous acts. Lucy is all ready to go after them but Gru stops her...to give them a five minute headstart. He then does his SignatureLaugh (with Dru doing it as well) as Lucy is getting pumped up for the chase in a way that would make [[Franchise/{{Rocky}} Rocky]] proud.]]

** As shown on the page image, the way she lays into Nico's mother for cursing her daughter. Keep in mind that Lucy is technically cursed too, but she was only concerned with Margo.

* This is the movie that made the franchise the most money, second only to ''WesternAnimation/{{Minions}}''.

* Meta example: In most franchises dealing with stepparents, the said stepparent either becomes more of a good parent than their spouse who was a parent longer ''and'' if the stepparent is a woman, she will most likely get pregnant in the sequel with little development in the relationship(s) with their stepchild(ren). This is ''subverted'' in the movie -- Not only does Lucy not become pregnant, but she faces some pretty realistic challenges of being a parent for the first time.

* When Gru and Lucy are in the Grumobile, a jerk next to then starts sizing them up with his car. Gru promptly lifts up his own car and smashes the guy into a nearby building. Lucy even takes a picture of it. Also a FunnyMoment.

* In a way, how the Minions end up in prison: They stuck into a talent show...And got a roar of applause due to their incredible singing performance

''([[spoiler: Gru plays a powerful rift of [[Music/DireStraits "Money for Nothing,"]] blasting Bratt away, [[LaserGuidedKarma blowing away his clothes, leaving him butt naked and floating in his own gum]], as AVL Choppers arrive to arrest him]])''\\

-->'''Bratt:''' Oh, it is on like Donkey Kong! I'm going to enjoy this!

-->'''Bratt:''' You've ruined everything. And now, it's time to die. [[AnyLastWords Any last words, Gru?]]
