Megamind vs. The Doom Syndicate

If I could rate this a zero, I would. This movie is straight up trash. It was so bad to the point that they couldn't even get Will Ferrell or Brad Pitt in the movie. Instead they got new guys that sounded nothing like the original movie characters. The story was off, horrible set of screen writers, animation was low budget, and it was boring. We all know and love Megamind, but in this one I want to throw my remote at the TV. And also, this film was supposed to hit theaters. But since the budget was low, it's getting straight to peacock! This is unacceptable. The TV series is way better, but still not good. If Dream-works makes a new movie, I'm not bothering to see it. This ruined the franchise. Very disappointing.

Dumbed down characters/dialogue/premise, inconsistencies in characters, and even an insistence on making a Parakeet joke.

Anything anyone made after the amazing miracle that was the original movie.. was never going to be as good! It's just like being taken back to the 80s! Where cheap and poorly written cartoons were made to capitalize on franchises. Then there's the series, that seems to continue the "Megamind vs Doom Syndicate" plot, and if it is as childish and boorish as this was.. it won't be worth watching either.

It is rather insulting to take something as beloved, and trash it for quick buck. Stay far and away.. this isn't Megamind.

The original Megamind was hilarious and well made. I saw this on Peacock, and thought it would be a fun watch. I was so wrong. It took me a minute to realize that it was a new voice cast. The. The old thing about changing Minon's name to "ol' chum" like seriously WTF, such a stupid decision. The plot was terrible, it's been 14yrs since Megamind and they have this pick up just days after the end of the original. They could have put a few years in between them, and then continue to develop him as a hero. The real Megamind would never have treated Minor that way. He never would have let him walk away in the beginning. They were best friends. Terrible movie wish I could give it a 0/10.

It seems like they took all the things people loved about the original movie and threw it in the trash, and took the other parts and turned it into a Disney Jr movie. First not sure why they thought that the movie would do good without the original cast. Second, the writing... how did they write all of that and got it approved... who approved the writing, who approved the new animation? Who approved ruining what magic the original movie had? Honestly... this movie is a great example of what you should not do when writing a sequel of a great movie. Nobody wanted a sequel... and what they wasn't a sequel... it was a Disney Jr movie that was worse than a Disney Jr movie.

Let me just say this now, memes aside, this movie is all around garbage, and that is putting it nicely. There are some funny moments here and there, but that's because it is so bad. The first Megamind is one of my favorite animated movies of all time and this just ruins it for me. Basically, every character is just not playing themselves, Megamind is completely dumb, Minion is not even minion anymore, but I think that's funny. The Doom Syndicate is dumb, because it wasn't in the first movie. This movie isn't a Megamind sequel, it's just slop made for children to put on streaming and make more money, because Megamind fans are going to eat it up.

My evening was ruined, but oh well, that was expected. I hate it.
