I'm still pissed that Megamind suffered the way it did. Despicable Me stole all of Megamind's thunder and DreamWorks just brushed it under the rug.

I hate those dragons movies so much. ROTG deserved that fandom.

I adore that movie so much and I cry every time I watch it when Jamie sees Jack for the first time ;A;

THOSE ARE THE GHOSTS? LMMAOOOO. I thought those were just images of the human characters. Wow.

Oh lol it doesn't actually say those are the ghosts but those look like Melissa Mcarthy and Seth Rogen characters so IDK. I mean, knowing Dreamworks I wouldn't be surprised if those WERE ghosts.
