    my fool of a son comes to me asking to watch a Despicable Me movie. he says they are on Paramount+. nonsense. everyone knows the Despicable Me IP is owned by Universal, and is thus on Peacock. except that Despicable Me 3 is exclusively on Netflix. this is a good entertainment landscape for consumers

    Brilliant box art for FASA’s VOR: The Maelstrom tabletop miniatures game, released in 1999. Unverified Wikipedia trivia: FASA is an acronym for the Freedonian Aeronautics and Space Administration. Freedonia is a fictional country popularized in the 1933 film Duck Soup and 2017's Despicable Me 3.

    I watched Despicable Me 3 again in order to get ready for the 4th movie tomorrow. I'll admit that it's not the best of the franchise...but I just can't hate it. It's generally cute and it made me laugh more often than I'd expect. It's a fun movie and I hope DM4 will, at minimum, do the same thing.

    Watched Despicable Me 3 over the weekend and found it pleasantly funny. Absolutely none of it makes sense and I like how the film is built around that being part of the fun. Also it's nice the villain genuinely seemed to like their robot henchman.

    (If the premise of Shrek 5 sounds very similar to the premise of Despicable Me 3, that was partly deliberate: it was commentary on how the film industry loves movies aboutthe importance of fatherhood, no matter how unoriginal)

    It's certainly tough because cinema has seen so many substandard movies over the past decade and they all seem to be terrible in their own way. I saw Dead Men Tell No Tales as a double feature with Despicable Me 3 and I honestly can't say which of those two was the worse film.

    Despicable Me is a pretty good movie. Despicable Me 2 is decent. Despicable Me 3 has its moments. Despicable Me 4 was AWFUL. I hated Minions, tho maybe it deserves a rewatch, could be just me or the time that I saw it. Minions Rise of Gru? So far, pretty good, even with the anachronisms!

    Yesterday I rewatched "Despicable Me 3". Judging by Letterboxd reviews, I seem to be in the minority, thinking that it's better than the second movie. The general humor was the same. Gru was as entertaining as everytime, but to me the antagonist was the weakest part of DM2. And in DM3, the antagonist is a 90s obsessed guy with bubblegum, Yoyos and shoulder pads that steals things while listening to Neue Deutsche Welle music. To me, he's as hilarious as Vector was in the first movie and he alone…

    🎬 • Despicable Me 3 (2017) - 3/10 It's cool when a movie sets up things it wants to say, only to never do anything with them. Cool when a sequel has no rhyme or structure. Yeah, as bad as I was told. The point of no return. Not even any likable. I hope I never see Dru again. Like, actually never.

    123. Despicable Me 3 Bratt is great, easily my favourite villain of the series but the film doesn't have much else to show for it. There's no focus to this movie, just throwing four unrelated plots around that all end up feeling undercooked, if they go anywhere at all. Not a fan of this one sadly.
