“There is no will Ferrell, there is no Tina fey, and there is no queen of England.”

When the Hazbin 50K parody looks better than the sequel to Megamind 💀

I said before, it's a crime that Megamind didn't get the Puss in Boots treatment.

He isn’t shooting tennis balls, he’s spawning them.

That ain't megamind that's nevermind ☠️

Shrek 2, Kung fu Panda 2, and Puss in Boots the Last Wish are phenomenal sequels. Making a really good sequel is possible

It absolutely HATE how they made Megamind an egotistical narcissist. Its basically his only defining trait in the trailer... Which is _awful_ because in the ORIGINAL he wasn't like that. He had a lot more depth, actually being down on himself more often than not, but putting on a show of arrogance when he was winning! His ego stemmed from his desire to impress others and find acceptance, he wasn't just full of himself like your average Hollywood director...

This is not megamind, it's micromind 💀

Headcanon: The Despicable Me 4 villain is just Megamind using the disguise watch.

This show reminds me of those TV series that Dreamworks used to put out with Nick in the 2000s

6:50 what's even funnier is that the title (megamind vs. the doom syndicates) was already the name of a megamind videogame. Yep they were that creatively bankrupt.

It's sad how They let Trolls and Boss Baby's sequel go theatrical but this is straight to streaming.

We wanted MegaMind but they’re giving us ColossalCranium! 2:25 To be fair, Cinderella 3 is actually good. Way better than the first one. 6:04 I think Will didn’t come back because he saw how bad the script was. He has denied coming back to movies because of bad scripts.

I heard that Dreamwork's laid off a lot of staff last year and the animation for this was done overseas for cheap.

This movie trailer is the ugly sonic drama all over again.

this new trailer reminded everyone how good the OG was

Wait, it feels like Incredibles 2 only came out like 2-3 years ago, not 6💀 time sure flies

This is why every film doesn't need a sequel. It's not because some stories don't need continuations- it's because you can have stuff like this happen.

I think this sequel teaches a very important lesson: it’s better to appreciate what you have than beg for more. And films like TRON: Ares with Jared Leto will probably further that lesson.

"There is no Easter bunny, there is no tooth fairy and there is no queen of England" Man that quote aged well. No offense of course. Rip the queen.

The button of doom was the true sequel

Ngl the sequel looks like Miraculous’ level of graphic 😭

This thing is already getting destroyed by every fan and its not even out yet imagine how awful it will be when it is

If you're going to take his handsome face. At least let Markymoo voice it😂

Megamind was considered to be a master-class movie between me and my friend. We would always talk and joke about it and praise it as if it were some divine presence. When my friend told me that there was a sequel in the works (trailer hadn't released yet) I was like "oh that's awesome! As long as Will Ferrell is in it and it has actual effort put into it maybe it'll be alright!" ... Then the trailer dropped and we were weeping for hours.

Me: I can’t believe you. All your gifts. All your powers. And you squandered them for your own, personal gain! Dreamworks: Yes!

I didn't even know this movie had a sequel.

I don’t know what the animators were on but it’s probably not legal

Man, halfway through this video and I'm already like, "I definitely don't need to watch any more of this to know that unless rave reviews come out for this movie, we can add it to the massive pile of sequels that were just soulless cash grabs." Mega Mind is one of many amazing movies that is perfect just as it is. It does not need a sequel.

I thought Megaminds story was wrapped up nicely like a neat little package

The first Mega Mind had the worst marketing. There was even a fart sound in the commercial that wasn’t in the movie.

Wait, wait, wait, hold the phone. You're telling me this is a TV show. And not a movie. When did even notice that and it's on peacock? My news, something was off about this. Where I first saw the trailer. I mean, I don't know if anyone will enjoy it. But that's just hope there are some people that love it

Well Keith he previously voiced Megamind in the Video Game

At best it would of been a direct to streaming movie like how The Bad Guys got there Christmas special for Netflix but outsourcing your animation is a gamble when you go cheap and it sad to see that DreamWorks not only had layoffs but also cut costs despite the fact there own by Universal..however thinking into more of this i personally go for the fact that the failure of Ruby Gilman that had a rippling effect thanks to the Mario Movie and Oppenheimer gave DreamWorks very little marketing budget that would leave this as a flop which left them to l lose alot of money

It’s incredible that the OG megamind is 13 years old and the animation quality still holds up against some Disney films from that era …and the animation quality of the sequel is kiiinda trash in comparison

I always dreamed about a Megamind Sequel for 14 Years, sure it was cautious when I heard it was a TV Series but Last Wish and The Croods a New Age gave me Hope for more Dreamworks Sequel but this isn’t what I wanted, this just feels like they massacred me Blue Boy and my All Time Favorite Movie like 2 Birds in One Stone, these are Darker Times My Friends, Plus this also looks like they took Notes from the Incredibles and Despicable Me, I’m just hoping this was Intentional and Does have Clever Writing.

I would have to disagree on successor series of Dreamworks movies being worse. I mean How to Train your Dragon: Riders of Berks was really good. So was Kung Fu Panda: Legend of Awesomeness and Paws of Destiny. Trolls the beat goes on or maybe Trollstopia I really enjoyed and think is a little underappreciated. All Hail King Julian and the Adventure of Puss in boots I thought, were really good. And if we're talking Disney here then Rapunzel Tangled Adventure or the Big Hero Six series was great.

The main reason why we didn’t get a sequel is that it didn’t do well critically on release. It became a cult hit way later. Some critics had even the audacity to call it a despicable me rip off which is funny since megamind was in production earlier.

Megamind got the exact opposite treatment as Puss in Boots

Welp they officially shit on mega mind’s legacy

Megamind who? That’s Ultrahead!

Ooh. I like Return of Jafar. It at least has continuity in tact and “Homer Simpson” does his best effort to replicate Robin Williams. Most of the cast returned and Jafar even got a banger song. A TV sequel I think is really bad is “Belle’s Magical World” as the characters are out of character, Beast is a total jerk and even says “I WILL NEVER APOLOGISE”!

It looks like a straight to video sequel made by Ai 😅

I never knew there was a megamind 2 until recently i just watched the first film and thought thats it and the story felt like its the end it didnt need a sequel

I feel like maybe they should take the “schaffrillas sequel recipe” route and create a direct sequel where it actually asks and answers about the origins of Megamind and Metro Man and their people, maybe bring in an actual alien as a villain, who may have been the one who brought the black hole that destroy their homeworld. If you guys want, I can create a quick synopsis on this supposed sequel plot

Let’s talk about how this takes place like a day after the first one

As a meme I saw once said : I can believe you Mr. Krabs you promised the kids krusty the clown all I saw was CHEAPY THE CHEAPSKATE

6:43-6:49, I noticed the same thing with another sequel that tried cashing in on the cult following for an underrated animated movie that came out well over a decade earlier with Secret of NIMH 2: Timmy to the Rescue. That movie also spliced in footage from the original movie, reminding us of how much worse the new animation is, watered down any of the elements from the original that appealed to adults to make it just for kids, and retconned ideas like how Nicodemus foretold a prophecy that Timmy, the little boy dying of pneumonia in the first movie, would become a savior for the rats of NIMH even though he did nothing of the sort. I was 5 when it came out and even then I knew I was watching something that wasn't as good as the original since I had the VHS tapes for both films and while I watched the first one repeatedly, the second one was a one-and-done for me and I completely forgot about it until the Nostalgia Critic's review for it years later and I was like "oh yeah, that sucked!"

I feel like the megamind in the sequel is megaminds secret young brother trying to be him CAUSE THATS NOT HIM 💀

2:28 Aladdin 2? THERE WAS A SEQUEL?!

Why just why! Megamind was so good I remember seening it with my Pawpaw in theaters.

Megamind never needed a sequel, it was a contained story and premise. “What if the super villain won but it turned out he wasn’t such a bad guy after all?” Once the first movie ended that was it. That was the story. I know we all love these characters but they really don’t have many more original stories to tell. If you keep it going it just becomes generic superhero shenanigans because the original premise already wrapped up.

Replacing voice-actors from the original, dumbing down the budget for animations + outsourcing the animation to overseas, adding a cringe teenage female boss-character, yeah it's shaping up to be a real dumpster-fire. Pass this movie. The original Megamind is FAR superior.

It's not just the quality of animation and rendering that has been regressed. The screenplay alone seems very lacking

I mean, the core voice cast of this (Keith "2017 Flintheart Glomgold" Ferguson, Laura "Kasumi Yoshizawa" Post and Josh "Rise of the TMNT Donatello" Brener) are legit great voice actors...? This doesn't seem like they're getting A material yet, and the show will probably be a lesser entry in all their catalogues.

I'm just gonna wait until it releases and someone posts it online somewhere because I don't wanna pay for a third streaming service, because despite the fact it doesn't look or sound too appealing, most Dreamworks shows I've watched aren't terribly hot shit, not sure about the movie though, gonna flip a coin on that one.

it looked and sounded so bad that i thought it was a fake like with the Kevin Temmer Tunes "3rd act of pixar's elemental" thing where people thought it was real, but the opposite

This is the perfect example of this: Things will eventually lose their flavor

4:29 Yeah, I've found that with a lot of TV CGI animation - they have a very set range of designs, especially in shows aimed at younger kids. I don't know if it's limitations with TV CGI animation or just wanting to stick to what's known to work or what, but it's a disservice to how much variety animation is capable of in the design department.

They completely forgot about the first film being that megamind is lonely and that was his entire character arc, however they brought the doom syndicate which are megaminds teammates thus completely getting rid of the sympathy the viewers feel for megaminds loneliness making the first movie useless

These "advances" in animation are giant steps backwards

This sequel hurts my soul

Man I thought you were gonna swing on my penguins for a second. 😂😅

I didn't now it was a "pilot to a new series". That makes more sense, and makes me a little more okay with it.

The Big Red Button was the better SEQUEL than this TV SLOP!

That style of that animation and that characters in that sequel look like early Ladybug and Black Noir serial

The Penguins of Madagascar tv show was a cinematic masterpiece for me when I was a kid

it would’ve been cooler if it was like he got a message from someone on his home planet that also survived and he takes a trip to see them and the guy that destroyed it finds out and megamind has to defeat him

I mean well I'm just watching as a teenager. I thought it was fine but as an adult I just. I don't know I haven't watched the first one in a very long time. It's been a while

Money, Loads of Money.

That young Jedi show is like a year old maybe less

Pov Dreamworks spent most of their money on Puss in Boots: The Last Wish

Dreamworks:WE’RE SAAAVED! Peacock:Not saved. It’s More like under NEW MANAGEMENT!!!

once an unique masterpiece wants to copy the mainstream, and wants more money, it fails. and it's just so terrible to see multiple stuff go down.

0:11 "hello everybody my name is Markiplier and welcome back to another video"

Nawh this ain't Megamind this Marginally Oversized Cranium 💀

A Megamind sequel was never going to work great because it was always just going to be for additional content not additional story, the story had already been told, so when I heard a megamind 2 was gonna be a thing I was prepared for disappointment and yet it still managed to disappoint beyond belief. It didn't just struggle with telling a new story or continued story but just completely disrespected the original story, retconed shit that didn't need to be, and devalued the theme and character development of the original film. It's easy for a sequel to not live up to the original or not make the story better but it takes a special type of stupid to make a sequel that actively makes the original worse Edit: also Incredibles 2 highlights this well it wasn't as good but it didn't take away from the original. The theme of the incredibles was the importance of family, and the characters throughout the film learned lessons connected to the themes that made them better people by the end of the film, the 2nd movie where not as good, respected those lessons and even if some actions slightly differed from them overall it didn't feel like it was just "And our heros learned an important lesson and then immediately through it away when we stopped filming" Whereas the Megamind sequel did exactly that. it's the equivalent of if at the end of megamind we got an epilogue speech that was like "And not long after some old villain friends of mine showed up, which I lied to you through the film about me being alone the whole time btw, and instead of immediately acting as the hero I learned to be I allowed them to convince me to betray people that had began to trust me completing ignoring the lessons I just learned" if that had happened the whole movie would have felt pointless and even if the rest the movie stayed the same it would have felt so much worse of a movie, and the sequel just came in and did exactly that

I'm gonna block out every horrible thing about Megamind 2 and just say that I'm absolutely JAMMING to the Michael Jackson instrumental covers you have in the background while you commentate.

This is a spiritual successor to those direct to video Disney sequels from the 90s and early to mid 2000s

i hate that the texture of it change and the city isn't even the same as the original if i were to choose what to watch i'd watch the old one

This series when from megamind to nevermind

Dude if they kept the same original animation the whole “he’s a hero now” thing would’ve flown but god like they’re catering to the new generation, when it grossed as much money it did because we are grown up. Maybe I’m old now I’m only 25 so maybe this is just how my parents felt taking me to see megamind in theatres when it came out shits just wild

“ready set slay”💀

No but the fact they had the audacity to say “you’re welcome” like it’s actually an amazing movie,, got that cocomelon ahh animation tho.

"This town isn't big enough for 2 megamind movies" "Oh youre a movie alright, just not a megamind movie"

I love how the movie hasn't even come out, and people already hate the living fudge out of it

The director will not make a mega mind instead they will make a mega disgrace

I can't believe you. All your gifts, all your powers, and you squander them for your own personal gain.

Remember how for the sonic movie the internet managed to bully an entire studio into changing the animation of their character? Can we all gather together and try that shit again?

1:41 oh my gawd it’s the no b word meme

There is an aladin 2? God darn, I do not pay attention to a lot of details

Even Gmod can guns are more realistic than Megamind's tennis ball gun

0:20 is where the crazy frog music video was shot

anybody else hear the smooth criminal music in the background?

queen of England died for this??

The graphics look likes how to train your dragon the three realms💀

I figured at this point we'd moved past the "Direct to video" sequels and yet... here we are. The animation looks worse, the lighting and shading is a massive downgrade, and the lack of any of the main cast from the first film all show signs that this was churned out for profit. Big yikes.

what digs at me the most is there is something so wrong with megamind’s eyes, eyelids, and eyebrows. Something about it i cant put my finger on that feels so wrong

This is my idea as to what the sequel should’ve been. Have Titan be the villain again but make him pure evil where he is obsessed with the powers megamind gave him in the first movie and is now trying to get them back. He then gets his powers back and has absolutely no mercy for others. I feel like this should also be a lot darker and more mature

The only Megamind 2 I know is Megamind and the button of doom
