Rabbids > Minions

I think Ubisoft is working on a Rabbids movie.

I love both of them. Freaking awesome.

When Despicable Me first came out, I immediately thought of the Rabbids.

I'd love a Rabbids movie, it would be perfect!


These characters appeal to my ADD. :awe:

When he tries to chat up that fire hydrant I lost my shit and almost choked on my drink. 8/10

I'm only sick of them when my minions fail me...

I love having minions though. When given tasks at work by Evil Corp, I love saying "I'll get my minions on it Sir!!!"

Then after 25 mins delegating to my minions, i sit back and relax while my minions take care of the work

You know, if they ever combine a Roomba with an Amazon Echo, I'm totally painting it yellow so that I have a Minion AI.

They are cute in small doses... but like many things... too much of it is a bad thing.

Like at any given moment having two kids at the dinner table start screaming BEE DO BEE DO BEE DO BEE DO to the point where you want to strangle them. Yeah it was funny the first couple times. After the 500th...not so much.

This.

Only seen Despicable Me, the first one. Loved it. Surprised that was Steve Carell.

Wasn't that big a fan of the minions though. Jon Hamm is apparently in this new movie.

Despicable me was significantly off the beaten path for Americans. It was a big budget animation done by an overseas company and had a very different feel. That's why Pixar has done so well with stories like "Up" and "Toy Story". Even though the plot has been done before, it feels very different.

I find the minions hilarious. I still scream 'BAH-NANA' at my kids and we all start laughing. The movie itself was funny for a couple short periods but quickly fell victim to the 'only funny in small doses' trap. Minions were always slapstick comic relief - only palatable in small amounts. 65% says most people agree with that, because a big group of the folks who went to this movie already like minions to begin with. For 1/3 of the people to come out disappointed just verifies the movie was bad.

The despicable me theme song still gets stuck in my head.

I'll take Minions over Star Wars any day. I am way more than sick of Star Wars at this point.

Why the fuck do they need their own movie? It's bad enough that I have to sort through a dozen Facebook memes per day that have minions in them. Now they have a movie and I'm sure its just minions doing cutesy little things for 2 hours instead of having some sort of plot.

I wish I could do cgi because I would make video of 100 or so minions getting chopped in a blender and share it on Facebook.


I Don't know lol. I'm just tired of seeing them and really ready for this fad to die.

Why do you feel the need to swear? Make you feel better?

I see it, or hear it on youtube all the time. F this, F that etc etc. There is no need for such filthy language.

i think it makes teenagers feel like adults

when in reality it just makes them lose the ability to remember and use adjectives
