I think my brain accidentally came up with the crossover of the century lol

It just makes me emotional that Dr Nefario met Gru when Gru was a little kid and now, decades later, he's spending time with Gru's son. This is just adorable

The best dad

Being evil is so tiring...

When I first watched Despicable Me, I was young, my child brain just assumed that Dr. Nefario was Gru's dad and I went about a good chunk of time believing that. I was shocked years later when my friends informed me that that was not the case. Despite that, I still believe Nefario became a sort of father figure to Gru— he even referred to Gru & the gorls as his "family" in the second movie. Rise of Gru only strengthened this take of mine.

The bois from 1989

I watched the second trailer for Despicable Me 4 and was left with a mental breakdown. I can’t. I can’t handle this. I guess at this point Gru’s character is completely assassinated by Illumination themselves and there is no bringing him back to how badass and cool he was in the first two movies (ESPECIALLY in the very first one yeah). I drew and completed this artwork before the trailer came out today, but now I want it to be a memorial of a prequel that will never happen because this studio is not interested in expanding the story on who were supposed to be two of its main characters, its focus completely shifted towards minions. And stupid, childish and mostly unfunny gags.

We will never see a glimpse of those almost 40 years Gru and Nefario had spent working together in between of “Minions: The Rise of Gru” and “Despicable Me 1”. We only heard their glory days being mentioned two or three times throughout the movies. But we never saw them and most probably never will. The only thing that we can do here is just use our imagination. I used mine and drew this.

Did quite a long research on men’s fashion of 80s. Gru is around 24-25 here and Nefario is 46-47, something like that. His hair already gradually goes gray, but the SWAG is still there.

How I feel after blocking Despicable Me haters on Tumblr cuz I don't need that negativity in my life

[bob-mirum]

my friend asked me to watch "despicable me" with him and now I think I have a new crash-

[captainmantine00]

I can’t believe that I suddenly went “GRAHHH I FUCKING HATE MINIONS!!!!” back then when this little guy exsists.

Like… he’s so cute and sweet and super silly and I love his dynamic with Kevin, it’s so cute like Kevin treats him like he’s his little brother and it’s so adorable, also that scene in rise of gru where he wants to sleep with gru is another great example of how absolutely adorable he is. Speaking of rise of gru, I love his flight attendant outfit so much like and how he tries to cheer up a crying baby during the plane scene, and Omg there’s also the training scene where Bob stays still smiling even after getting hit by multiple objects it’s just, hilarious. Also, we can’t forget about the iconic king Bob scene from the first minions, just, amazing.

In conclusion, he is the best minion, in my opinion.
