    Thumbs up Despicable Me

    Has anyone seen this yet? It's well-written, funny, and touching. It tops Toy Story 3 for me. The minions are hilarious. Great movie!

    I will surely will go see this movie mostly because of Steve Carell, but I've also heard a lot of good things about it.
    My obsessions: Joy Division, New Order, Bones, The Office.

    Do bears bear? Do bees bee?

    I thought it was an ok movie. Great to take the kids to, but for adults, it felt kinda bland. The yellow minions (I call them Twinkies) are beyond cute. They saved the movie for me. Also some very adorable scenes with the 3 girls.

    Toy Story 3 was way better. I'd watch TS3 again.

    Maybe I'm not really an adult at heart, but I couldn't disagree more. This movie has something for the whole family, grown-ups and children alike.

    I'd watch TS3 again too, but not before I see Despicable Me a few more times. Maybe next time, I'll check it out in 3D.

    Steve Carell was awesome as Gru - I couldn't even tell that it was his voice. The voice actors in here really altered their voices well to fit the characters instead of the other way around.

    Despicable me doesn't come out in Australia till September. I've preordered my tickes for advance screening.

    i watched the trailer and feel in love with "It's so fluffy!"
    Currently in love with Bae Suzy...for superficial reasons.

    Yes, Gru definitely grew on me (pun intended).
