Steve Carell’s Gru and crew are back!

In a new clip from Despicable Me 2, Carell’s Gru seems to be softening up from his evil ways — but that doesn’t mean he wants to socialize. Enlisting his youngest daughter Agnes, he attempts to keep unwanted house guests away, but fans know things rarely work in his favor right away. While obviously geared at kids, the movie attracted adult A-list talent. In addition to Carell, the film will feature the voices of Kristen Wiig, Russell Brand, and Miranda Cosgrove.

Check out the clip below — which obviously features at least one minion sighting: READ FULL STORY »

Get excited for 'Despicable Me 2' with a sighting of a giant Minion blimp

It doesn’t speak nonsense as it flies, but Universal Pictures is gearing up for the release of Despicable Me 2 with a coast-to-coast tour of an enormous, bright yellow Minion blimp.

Dubbed the “Despicablimp,” the huge balloon is kicking off its journey with an appearance at the Kids Choice Awards this Sunday in Los Angeles. From there it will journey 20,000 miles across the country, stopping at various cities. Sightings will also be tracked on the map on the blimp’s official site. You can even enter to win a ride aboard the Despicablimp, and tickets to the premiere.

For a look at the creation and triumphant first flight of the huge Minion, check out this video:

Maybe we can get just a “hoy ba boi!” or something out of it? Despicable Me 2 hits theaters July 3.

Nothing warms our hearts like little Agnes and the minions. iTunes premiered the new trailer for Despicable Me 2 today and it reveals a lot more about the plot of the movie.

Gru is busy living a happy domestic life with his adopted children, until he’s called to action and asked to save the world. Since he knows how a super villain thinks, he’s the perfect person to stop a new bad guy.

Steve Coogan, Kristen Wiig, Al Pacino, (of course) Steven Carell, and many more lend their voices to the film which comes out July 3. READ FULL STORY »

'Despicable Me 2' teaser trailer: Close Encounters of the Minion Kind? -- VIDEO

The minions of Despicable Me will be getting their own feature film spin-off in 2014, but if the new teaser trailer for next summer’s Despicable Me 2 is any indication, the pill-shaped, electric yellow henchmen of Steve Carell’s not-quite-nefarious Gru will also play a major role in the official sequel to the 2010 animated hit. Much of the clip features two of the minions goofing off after putting Gru’s three adopted daughters to bed — it seems “putt putt” means the same thing in English as it does in Minion-ese. But when they investigate a mysterious sound in their backyard, things take a decidedly otherworldly turn. Check it out below:  READ FULL STORY »
