I'm still not quite sure what to make of the upcoming 3-D CG-animated DESPICABLE ME. I know it's about a dastardly supervillain, voiced by Steve Carell. But the teasers so far have been a bit cryptic, if not downright confounding, like this new one. Apparently the baddie has some kind of sentient easily amused beans to do his bidding?

As the studio's blurb explains: No villain – even the world’s (second) greatest villain – can do everything by himself. So it comes as no surprise that Gru has an entire army of not-so-bright Minions to help him carry out his diabolical plans... unless of course, they get their hands on a Moo Cow Toy! Hardworking and devoted to their leader and his mad exploits, the Minions are content to serve as his crash test dummies along the way. After all, Gru is planning the biggest heist in the history of the world…to steal the moon!

DESPICABLE ME, the upcoming 3-D CGI animated comedy from Illumination Entertainment and Universal Pictures, boasts an all-star comedy cast including Steve Carell, Jason Segel, Russell Brand, Will Arnett, Kristen Wiig, Danny McBride, Miranda Cosgrove, Jack McBrayer, Mindy Kaling, Jemaine Clement and Julie Andrews.

Learn your shit dude! None of the movies you named are CGI, they are stop-motion animation, entirely fucking different!

This movie looks like it could be a good laugh

If you haven't already you should check out all the videos besides just these teasers. The international video gives away far more information plus its pretty humorous at the start with the kid. I won't spoil it but check it out.

Umm...
I think this looks like garbage. I mean does anyone else feel this is generic? The trailer I saw before Avatar was just as bad. And people said "What the Hell" when the voice-over says Despicable Me.

WOW.. hands down the worst teaser trailer I've ever seen. It did the exact opposite of make me interested. I just wasted a minute and a half of my life.



the only non-pixar CGI movies worth mentioning are the first Shrek and first Ice Age. Notice those are 1 of 7 in their trilogy/quadrilogy. Note to Dreamworks: STOP WITH THE FUCKING SEQUELS!!!

I'm both intrigued and annoyed by this movie's trailers so far. Something tells me they're smart by the way it is being marketed, and something tells me it could suck balls. We'll see.

Goo CGI that aren't Pixar = Meet The Robinsons, Astro Boy, Planet 51, Battle For Terra, Appleseed movies, Vexile, Beowulf, Ice Age 1&3, Monster House, Robots, Surf's Up, Sinbad- Beyond The Veil Of Mists, Ark. There are probably some I can't remember right now.

Really? I liked Kung Fu Panda and LOVED Over the Hedge. I agree with the others though
