    Minions

    What's going on with these little wankers? They're everywhere. I know they're from a film, and now they have their own film. But how does that explain their cultural ubiquity? And will the combined might of a Pacific Northwest Mega-Quake, mini ice age and religious war be enough to wipe them out? I hope so, but doubt it.

    I really liked Despicable Me, not just because it was funny but because it suggested that a non-traditional family could be a happy one (in him being a single dad, not in terms of him being an evil genius). But then they went all nuclear family for Despicable Me 2 so fuck the franchise and fuck the minions.

            Yeah, but considering what happens to them at the end of their lives, they deserve every success they get:

              I was using some banana-ish vape juice called Minion Farts, but the guy who makes it has changed the name to Nana State, so the fight back has started.

                    There was a Twitter account the other day posting Minions memes, but with quotes from Hellraiser as the text. I quite liked those.

                      I'm taking my friends daughter to see the Minions film next week and I don't mind admitting I laughed at all the Minions bits in Despicable Me 2.

                        Oh, the Minions in DM and DM2 were fabulous. This monstrosity, though....

                        54% on Rotten Tomatoes, and that's being kind.

                          There's also someone who posts Taylor Swift photos with inspirational quotes on them. Only the quotes are from Hitler, and people on Pinterest have no idea. And now those quotes are being stolen by someone and put on Minion memes/macros.

                            And yet it had the second biggest opening weekend of all time for an animated film.

                              I know. Chalk it up to a lot of people not reading reviews beforehand. I was all gung-ho going in, and I fell asleep in the theatre.

                                Did you wear Minions merch head to toe? Cos everyone I saw coming out of it seemed to.

                                    Why would you ever expect a spin-off movie about Minions to be anything other than deeply average?

                                    Seems like WOM had poorly calibrated expectations.

                                    You get one of the top grossing movies when your lead characters have enough captive kids that even my daughter loves them yet has never seen Dispicable Me or has any idea what they are beyond the marketing campaign.

                                      I figured it'd be of similar quality to the first two. Why not, really?

                                                  I've spent too long on the crossword thread. I'm seeing an anagram containing "fudge".
