For a company named Illumination, their filmography sure doesn't have a lot of bright spots.

Somehow one of the guys who wrote the Grinch was one of the guys who wrote Puss In Boots 2. That’s like making a D essay one year, leaving for a few years, and coming back with an A essay.

Say what you want about Despicable Me 3, but hey, a villain that views Hollywood as a decrepit hellhole full of disgusting monsters and outrageous debauchery is a W to me

You know how Illumination would feel because of the criticism and hate like Buster Moon. Whenever you give Illumination a backlash, it makes them jumped the shark. After Minions: The Rise Of Gru. Chris Meledandri, The CEO and founder of that company said that they're gonna have to change after using the same methods in their flims. He said that you have to honor the stories the movie tell or flimmakers make. The change is risk. The criticism is what made that happened. So months later, they hired Mike Moon, a former head of adult animation for netflix to be their senior creative advisor of their company. They even partnered with him to create a new division called Moonlight. The goal for that new label is "produce animated flims push beyond the family genre". They're actually doing it to stop the hate. Chris said that "We have a exceptionally talented group of artists, filmmakers, and producers at Illumination and believe there's no compliment to this team but Mike and the new company we are partnering to build" "He has exceptional taste, deep experience and a strong vision we intend to make together. I look forward to Mike and Moonlight making a substantial contribution to Illumination's future" He means that Illumination would go worse without Mike Moon and Moonlight. Mike as a senior creative advisor for their movies and the new label, Moonlight, movies for teens and adults would save Illumination's reputation.

Ngl, I'm kind of hoping Despicable Me 4 pulls a Shrek Forever After, where it completely ignores the third film and tells a much better story. Now of course, I'm not asking for masterpiece (that's just ridiculous), I'm asking for something better than DM3.

Aside from half of the Despicable Me movies, I’m never up for watching any Illumination movie for how much they pender to kids instead of grown ups too. Let’s just hope that the Mario Movie is a banger so they could make more bangers. (Like more Nintendo movies) And also this might be slightly off topic, if Illumination ever makes a movie about Kirby, they better get John Mulaney to voice Magolor or I’m getting a refund. Just kidding I won’t, but I just hope the film is good too if that ever happens.

Following up on my last comment my problem with illumination is that as a studio they are just so hit and miss! It’s like when they announce a new movie there’s no guarantee on whether or not it’s gonna be a good movie! And because of this it’s why I really REALLY don’t know what to expect from their next film “migrate”

Imagine a Super Mario movie that touches on more mature topics like death, grief, oppression, identity, etc. That would be so amazing, instead the one coming out I'm pretty sure it's gonna be a bunch of colors, jokes that might and might not land and a very simple story, I mean the games also have a simple story but they have amazing gameplay.

P.S: I would like to see you tear apart The Flash. EDIT : Now he considers The Flash worse than Chip n Dale on his least favourite movies list on letterboxd. Give ILLUMINATION and Chip n Dale some credit, they never animated dead people just to get a cheap cheer of the audience.

I still find it funny its Nintendo of all folks that will possibly force them to make a movie beyond just ok. I knew Nintendo made them do a heck of a turn around just from the actual new stylized artstyle and lack of trendy music. But we'll see what happens in the end... Even if the Mario movie bangs though, unless they do a "Emoji Movie to Spiderverse" level of turnaround... I DO NOT want them being in charge of all Nintendo movies potentially. I think some of the lighter IPs they could do decently (WITH strong guidance), but things like Zelda & Metroid? They deserve far better.

My opinions on illumination movies. Despicable me- the best illumination movie imo. Hop-a guilty pleasure and unique. Lorax-underrated. Despicable me 2-not as good as the first. Minion-ok. Pets-a boring kids movie. Sing-refreshing. Despicable me 3-f..king horrible. Grinch-haven’t seen it but don’t want to. Pets 2-not interested. Sing 2-the same as the first. Minions 2-kinda better than the first. Mario-boring as hell. My thoughts on future movies. Migration-I guess Rio wasn’t enough. Despicable me 4-it better be about the girls.

@@TAWOGFan2007 an unpopular opinion but I hate video games. I hate it so much I feel sorry for mothers and fathers who has to see they’re kids do nothing but play those stupid things. And am a 15 year old. The reason why I watched the Mario movie is just because that I was curious about it. And it was boring for me. It felt like a boring version of the Lego movie. And also I really hated the animation. I know it colourful and that’s the only good part about the animation as well as the backgrounds. But the character design are horrible. An unpopular opinion but I kinda wish they changed the character design to make the characters look different from the games. Because the way they used the original designs and make it hyper realistic is just horrible. And the designs on the background characters are even worst. Sorry if you like the movie that is fine. But I just didn’t like it.
