    It's so unfair. Kung Fu Panda, Shrek, and How to Train Your Dragon got whole franchises, hell even the spinoffs like Puss in Boots get amazing follow-ups, yet one of, if not, the cleverest of Dreamwork's films gets this hunk a shit as its official follow-up. On the Walmart of streaming services, with 2000-looking animation, and none of the original cast returning. That's legitimately depressing. It should've either stayed a one-and-done classic or had ONE more go on the big screen with the RESPECT it deserves.

      Unfortunately companies only see money now, and they don’t want to bother creating new and engaging IPs so they go back and milk off whatever they can. At least their other works had relatively cohesive and good sequels. But this one is low budget, reused assets, and has no good plot, it’s literally the opposite of what the original megamind was. It’s disappointing and I really hope people don’t support the megamind IP anymore because that’ll be doing what the company wants; as much as I wish that the movie will not make more than its budget the sad part is that the budget is so low it’s hard to not even make a profit

    The point was that it was just Megamind and Metroman all this time, the only two aliens on earth, making them unique, special. This is why Megamind gets lonely, this is why he needs to CREATE a new hero, not find one. For a new villain it should’ve been a NEW villain in universe as well, perhaps inspired by when Megamind was a villain who is upset he’s a hero now and tries to get him to be a villain again if you want to do a similar plot to this for whatever reason.

      YES. THANK YOU. You're the only one I've seen pointing that out. I hate the idea of having new villains and heroes because the whole point of the 1st movie was that only Megamind and Metroman were villains/heroes, because they were aliens. I'd say a good plot for a sequel would be an alien capable of surviving black holes, unlike Megamind and Metroman's species, coming down to earth to use its resources or something.

Imagine the awkwardness of them getting to know each other for real, outside of kidnappings and disguises. Megamind could struggle with being seen with her in public as his true self, expecting people to still find him strange after years of bullying. What if they actually addressed what happened to Bernard, or had him show up again?

      Especially with a franchise that only became a cult classic years after it's release. Megamind was a new IP with no established characters to carry it on nostalgia value alone. Megamind became a beloved movie because it was smartly written, hilarious, ahead of it's time with the Nice-Guy plotline, and genuine. Viewers pick up on things like that, the WRITING was what made Megamind so good, this slapping a blue Jimmy Neutron jpg over an episode of Cocomelon is an insult to the original movie and the fanbase it developed.

    Here's what I think Megamind 2 should've been about. It should've been about Megamind earning Metrocity's trust. I imagine that even after defeating Titan, there would still probably be people who wouldn't trust him because of his villainous past. I mean, Metrocity still thinks he killed MetroMan. It could be about Megamind adjusting to being a hero, but the town having trouble fully trusting him. The stigma could've even spread to Roxanne when a rumor starts popping up that she was secretly Megamind's girlfriend the whole time and might have been an accomplice in MetroMan's death. Maybe the antagonist of the film could be people trying to avenge MetroMan's death. I feel like it's a huge missed opportunity.

So even if he did come out publicly with his music, there is a high chance: maybe he has a new alias, or maybe if he did come out, people wouldn't believe him, thinking him to be a "fake."

    The Doom Syndicate are not Megamind's colleagues, but instead his diehard fans. They were outcasts just like he was and so they modeled their identities around villainy as he did. The syndicate, Megamind realizes, are trying to push him onto the same pedestal he put Metroman on. Megamind has to try to convince them to abandon their evil ways whilst keeping the city free from crime in the meantime. Remove the self insert, throw in more scenes with Minion/Chum and Megamind strategizing, and have Roxanne try to play up the conflict for Megamind since he loves his presentation.

      *Minion:* Well, now I'm more of a sidekick, right?
      *Megamind:* Yes?
      *Minion:* Then that's my new name!

    If they had a real budget, I wouldn’t mind the existence of the doom syndicate. However I think their backstory should be that they were inspired by Megamind’s old villainy days as opposed to the dumb plot point that they were his old crew. It would play out so much better and be consistent timeline wise. Imagine the conflict being that Megamind experiences more consequences for his past actions and learning to turn the doom syndicate into hero’s like himself. Or having Megamind become 50/50 split on what is actually better, a hero or villain. How sad is it that this is a better idea than the story this multimillion company could do?

      It doesn’t matter if it’s good, because they know that people will still watch it to make fun of it, and they’ll keep making more and more money either way

    Us two years ago: We want more Megamind content!
    Corporations: Uh, ok *gives us a terrible show in Megamind skin*
    Us now: UNDO! UNDO!

    idea: make the antagonist be someone who doesnt believe megamind has actually made a change for the good and is using the doom syndicate to try and cause megamind to reveal how his is still evil by having them pretend to be looking to recruit megamind after he defeated metroman

    we went nearly 14 years with megamind being perfect... why did they do this to us

    It would be one thing if the Doom Syndicate was rewritten to be villains that grew up in the shadows and admired Megamind’s villainy. But try to overthrow Megamind when they find out he’s a good guy.

    Megamind was in prison his whole life and when he wasn't, he was fighting Metro Man the whole time, so when and where did he meet this Doom Syndicate lol

    The movie felt like one of those movie pilots like The Return of Jafar, Tangled: Before Ever After, and Star Wars: The Clone Wars movie. I guess the Doom Syndicate will continue to be villains since they'll be in the show, but wouldn't be surprise if they turn a new leaf in the series finale of the show.

      I do have a sort of soft spot for return of jafar (even though the animation style of jafar still creeps me out a little) I say that because it’s just so hilariously bad it’s laughable! If I had to pick a counterpart FOR ME AT LEAST, it would be all three of the beauty and the beast straight to dvd movies. THEY MASSACRED MY BOY SO BAD IN THOSE. what’s even worse? Is that EVERY SINGLE OG VOICE ACTOR GOT DRAGGED INTO THIS!!

      yea i agree except with tangled before ever after (and the series) both series and movie is good not great like last wish level but good (and is better than the straight to dvd sequels and wir 2)/imo

      Honestly Return of Jafar and the Tarzan sequel that was just 3 episodes of the series slapped together with a loose narrative were the first things I thought of when I saw this get announced. It let me be willing to potentially forgive the drop in animation quality, but man, the rest of it isn’t great. Lol
      But hey, the Clone Wars movie and the Tarzan sequel that kicked their series off werent particularly great either. Maybe Megamind Rules will at least have a couple decent episodes.
