    Despicable Me 2?

    Anybody catch it yet? For my money it blew Monsters University away. Way more laughs for both kids and adults, at least in the showings I attended.

    Interesting. The first one did nothing for me but my son is dying to go see it. Those yellow guys are annoying as **** and they're everywhere. The next rainy day it'll be that or Monsters Inc.

      Haven't seen it yet. But I loved the first movie and I think the Minions are adorable. Definitely getting it once it hits Blu-Ray
      You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

        Well, if'n you didn't like the first one, and you find the minions irritating, then I would suggest skipping this one.

        However, If you are a fan of Gru and the crew, you should find this a fun ride. I agree with the Hammer, this topped Monsters U by a mile or more. Not to mention, they cast Hector in a major role. Good times.

          ^HA! Yes, it was great. Better than the first, and more fun than MU (although we liked that too). Even took my mother-in-law, who can't stop talking about wanting a Minion. My wife made me got to McD's just to get a toy yesterday, for herself!

          Dude, go see a doctor. I think the joy center of your brain is not firing. Who can hate the Minions?

            We saw it yesterday and loved it. The first is one of my daughters favorites and she liked this one better. One of the first things she said when we got in the car after the film was, " daddy, can we get that on DVD?"
            That's 2 big thumbs up!

              We enjoyed it quite a bit, too. I agree that it was better than Monsters U.

                You know, I liked Monsters U better. Despicable Me 2 was a little bit too much of the minions, who I do like, and not much heart or story.

                  Saw this today and thought it was pretty good. A lot of the funny parts were in the trailer but it still held my interest. I saw the first one in the theater and can't remember a single thing about it. TheMinions don't bother me in the movie, it's that damn "no talking or texting" message they play at AMC with them in it that and the Barbara-Ann commercial spot from the Super Bowl that drove me crazy.

                    Also Best Buy is doing one of their "buy one of these movies and get a free ticket" promo's for this film too. So if your gonna go see it, go to Best Buy first and by a $10 Blu-Ray and get a free ticket to see Despicable Me in theaters.
