I can not believe Despicable Me made $60 million.

I figured it would bomb, based on the ads.

It sounds like it's actually good, but who would know that from the ads?

I've loved it since the pyramid teaser, but I did not expect it to be a blockbuster on this scale. - David Jul 12, 07:50 4

We've been waiting for it for a while. I haven't seen any ads for it recently though, but it wasn't what I was expecting. - JaxSean Jul 12, 07:49 1
- the more recent previews make this a bit more obvious. but yeah at first they totally screwed some of the advertising. -- nm - sycor Jul 12, 07:50
I've wanted to see it from day one. The ads crack me up. Love the minions and will watch the movie this week. -- nm - sycor Jul 12, 07:49
Actually, all my kids wanted to see it. Kinda convinced me. My port appreciates it. Finally off the mat. -- nm - budice Jul 12, 07:45 1
- Could you build a time machine, travel to this past Friday morning, and post this? - ty97 Jul 12, 07:46
The Minions! And the line "It's so fluffy!" have made it a DVD rental for me as opposed to never having interest -- nm - MDH Jul 12, 07:43 3
- that bit made me laugh every time i saw the commerical - tRuMaN Jul 12, 07:45
- The one line from the commercials that I noticed might resonate with kids was "Curse you, tiny toilet!" - ty97 Jul 12, 07:45 1
  - i said it sunday, i so could see the Minoins getting their own cartoon show. -- nm - tRuMaN Jul 12, 07:46
it is actually pretty good. the ads gave you an idea of what the movie was about, but really didnt - tRuMaN Jul 12, 07:43 6

    - hee on IM -- nm - Epiphany Jul 12, 08:06
  - It's like saying Up was ruined by the trailers. (We might go see Sick Puppies this month, too.) -- nm - JaxSean Jul 12, 07:51 1
    - they got a chick bassist and the singer is a big lanky goofy looking puppy - Epiphany Jul 12, 08:07
