Megamente vs. O Sindicato da Perdição

This is NOT my Megamind and heres why.

They did not bring back any of the original cats from the first movie. The girl is super annoying, the very low quality animation. It is just a cheap waste of time for a sequel for this. The plot makes no sense whatsoever and just got completely scrapped from what we saw in the first movie. We NEVER saw Megamind having a crew in the first movie and the story is just dumb and out of place. The animation just sucks in general like there was no effort put into this.

If you want to watch Megamind that was perfect in every way. Watch the first movie, do not waste your time on The Doom Syndicate.

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.

This is such a shameless and blatant cash grab on a mature, intelligent film, to make it into a cheap knockoff aimed purely at children. Nothing more that that.

Lets start with the obvious: they got rid of all the original voice actors and replaced them with cheap nobodys, and downgraded the animation. Now to be fair, the animation quality isnt *that bad,* but its also worse than the first movie that came out over a decade ago so theres no excuse for this movements are all stiff and unnatural, the character models all look like theyre for a ps2 game, nad theres animaton errors EVERYWHERE. Not as often as there were in the trailer, but still a lot.

The writing is also childish and immature. Even if we forgive the movie for not haviong the budget to look as good as the original, thats still no excuse as to why the writing couldnt be as good as the original. Theres no emotional depth, no trope subversion, no maturity, none of the humor was funny in the slightest, it had NONE of the sharp writing that the original movie did. There was this really annoying thing they did where they made an excuse as to why they have to call minion "chum" for some reason. I genuinely dont know why, it didnt seem like a joke so anything. I kept waiting for them to say "ok this is stupid lets stop saying that" but they never did. The movie tries to make a point as to how megamind cant face the doom syntacate head on, because theres 4 of them and only one of him. But what the writers seem to have forgotten is that he literally defeated an evil superman in the last movie, and the doom syndacate is just a bunch of generic villain rejects that real life police would have absolutely no probelem aprehending. Also didnt the movie make a whole point of how megamind never backs down from a fight, even if he has no chance of actually winning? In this movie hes reduced to a whiny baby.

The movie was also super cringy and pandering. Theres a self-insert child character in it now (you know, for the kids.) and they constantlybring up social media and the internet in out-of-touch contexts. Also that doesnt make any sense because this movie is supposed to take place immediately after the first one, which came out in 2010. They also keep retconning stuff into the megamind universe that we know doesnt make any sense at all.

On its own merits, its decent at best. But when you compare it to the much superior first movie, its a major disappointment. This movie actually could have been good-ish if they expanded upon elements that they didnt fully explore in teh first movie, like megamind and roxxys relationship, or metro mans view of all of this. But unfortunately it was just a dumb kids movie.

Holy this is one of the worst movies I've ever seen the animation looks like it's from that kids show Miraculous Ladybug or from the game Sims. All I wonder is just why? The whole time I was watching this thing I was wondering why make another Megamind movie? Why give me brain cancer because I watched this thing.

After I watched Megamind doom syndicate some people told me that apparently there is also a series called Megamind Rules.

And so I kept wondering why after 14 years return to this movie? The people that watched Megamind will never go watch this, and the kids would rather watch some other animation.

WORST MOVIE OF THE YEAR.

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.
