The DESPICABLE ME films have been met with great success and that's due to, in no small part, the titular Minions. They're tiny, they're yellow, and they speak in a gibberish concocted of English, Spanish, and whatever else director Pierre Coffin decides to spew out of his mouth. This spin-off prequel film will focus on three particular Minions (Stuart, Kevin and Bob) as they are recruited by super-villain Scarlet Overkill (Sandra Bullock) alongside her inventor husband Herb (Jon Hamm), as she hatches a plot to take over the world. The latest trailer has hit for the animated film, and I feel it's my duty to report to you that there's a Minion in a thong. The goggles do nothing.
I never cared much for the DESPICABLE ME movies myself, and the Minions even less so. They always struck me as weird, creepy creatures. I AM curious to know what they actually are. I got the impression that all the recklessness and accidents they're involved in probably kill them off at a rapid pace. How do they reproduce? Are they made? Grown? Animals? I don't think MINIONS really aims to answer those questions, but you never know.
MINIONS will hit theaters on July 10, 2015.
