I think Gru would be one of those guys to come in regularly and check on his enemies to see how they're doing

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

hey so i saw the despicable me 4 trailer and i have a very specific beef with it that's making me insane

so, like, disclaimer, i havent watched any of the minion cinematic universe movies since despicable me 2 came out... holy fuck eleven years ago, jesus christ. but anyway i'm probably gonna get minute details wrong but like hold with me a second

so idr when despicable me 2 takes place in regards to the first film. from what i remember, agnes was having issues with not having a conventional nuclear family for mother's day so this implies it's the first mother's day that the girls have had in gru's household. i'm pretty sure that the first movie took place during the summer-ish, and iirc the second movie is also summer (fitting with my "roughly may" estimate) so we'll say like eight-ish months have passed since the first film. no big deal, right?

so then at the end of the film gru and kristen wiig get married but the timecard states that it's "147 dates later." i doubt they went on a date every single day leading up to the wedding but if we're assuming the date list also covers the engagement and wedding prep period, that's at the VERY VERY least one-hundred and forty-seven days after the events of the film. so with the timeskip at the beginning, that puts us at well over a year since the first film, thirteen months minimum

okay so the third film from my research doesn't state how long it takes after the wedding. so again, let's be generous and say that it's not too long after. i'm pretty sure the film itself takes place over a couple of days so we'll ignore its place in the continuity for now. that brings us to movie number four, which just got a trailer and just revealed a new player in the game

so gru and kristen wiig have a new biological child. this kid is old enough to move and emote, which puts him at 7-12 months old if he's able to crawl. let's again be generous and say it's seven months. assuming that human reproduction works the same as it does in our universe, and again being generous as hell and assuming that lucy may have been pregnant through the third film or right after the wedding, we have to add nine months to all this. so from the first film, we have ~8 month timeskip, then a 147-day minimum timeskip, then let's say 16 months to get to the baby being able to crawl. again, this is absolute bare minimum, and we still get to a conclusion of it's been roughly 29 months since the first film, or 2.5 years.

so okay. two-and-a-half years since the first film.

so then why the everloving fuck are the girls the same. fucking. AGE??

how have these motherfuckers not aged a fucking day??? they haven't grown a goddamn inch. it should have been, again, 2.5 years minimum, more likely 3-4 years if we're being realistic.

and to double check my work, i went on the despicable me wiki and found that they also put movie 4 at a three-year timeskip from the first movie, specifically putting margo at 10 in the first movie and 13 in the fourth, edith at 8-11, and agnes at 5-8; their main source is margo being stated to be 12 in the third movie, and her sisters' relative ages being provided by tweet, so even then this is, again, bare minimum on timeskip. and not only have these motherfuckers not changed style one fucking time, but they haven't changed height, weight, anything. agnes has hit eight years old and is the same height as the tiny-ass fucking minions. edith's hat still fits. margo should be in high school and she looks the same as she did three goddamn years ago

what kind of motherfucking witchcraft is the gru family using to keep themselves young??? they said gru stopped being evil but are we sure there isn't some vampire blood rituals happening in the minion basement

make them a new character model. please god

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.

I think that Gru and Maxime are "exes".

Here's my explanation (copy and pasted from discord messages i sent):

i was thinking about gru and maxime being "exes" and i thought of a possible headcanon that could be tied to that

i think that neither gru or maxime were particularly popular when they first started at lychee pas bon - gru because he is generally offputting, and maxime because of the cockroach thing

gru would tend to keep to himself, while maxime would try to hang around more popular kids to try to fit in

at some point the kids would want to pull a prank on gru, and would use maxime for that because he was the least liked and they wanted to see how far he'd go to gain their friendship - that prank would be to ask gru to date him and pretend to be his boyfriend for a while. very mean-spirited, but something that should be expected from a bunch of future villains

maxime would ask, and gru - not realising it was a prank - would say yes. he'd be excited to have someone to hang out with

after a while of maxime pretending to like gru, he'd actually start catching feelings, as gru would be the only person to care about his interest in cockroaches. theyd be happy

that is, until maxime's "friends" would push him into telling gru that the whole thing was a "prank"

their relationship would end, and their rivalry would begin

i also think that when maxime tells him its a prank hed be mean about it and thats where hed start calling him "gru-ser the loser"

i imagine that after that interaction gru goes home and cries to the minions snd they all try to do things to make him feel better 🙁🙁

maxime would go home and talk to his cockroaches about it. i envision this event to be the beginning of (my version of) maxime's imminent descent into derangement
