>Megamind & Megamind Button of Doom

My husband and I are on a movie watching streak! When I first heard of Megamind I thought it could be a fun family movie but Mr. B and I ended up watching it together after the kids were in bed. I think this was a cute movie with some really great animation- and a sortof kindof sweet storyline in a twisted, humorous way. There’s the good against evil fight, yes, but there’s also a love story and bad guy turns good guy, and a lot of twists and turns along the way. With Will Ferrell, Tina Fey and Brad Pitt voicing the characters, you know there is a lot of talent in the cast and they all shine through. Totally a cute movie- with lots of fun extras on the DVD.

Plus, for a limited time, when you buy Megamind you get the mega double dvd pack which includes The Button of Doom- which has the original cast voices in another Megamind adventure. One of my favorite parts of either of these DVD’s is the how to draw Megamind. I mean the movies are cute and fun and great graphics, but I love extras. Deleted scenes, etc. are always fun to see. I’m not very skilled at drawing things and I love simple how tos. Perhaps one day I’ll get a photo of an attempt of something and share. Not today, mind you, but someday.

This mega pack is affordably priced at about $24.99 and a nice fun family movie -although as a mom with young kids I’d say more a family with kids ages 7+ but that’s just me.

Megamind:

He’s bad, brilliant…and blue.

Packed with high-flying action and non-stop laughs, DreamWorks Animation’s Megamind puts a whole new hilarious twist on the superhero movie. Super villain Megamind’s (Will Ferrell) dreams have come true when he captures the damsel in no distress (Tina Fey) and conquers the city’s protector Metro Man (Brad Pitt), gaining control of Metro City. But when a new villain (Jonah Hill) is created and chaos runs rampant, the world’s biggest “mind” and his comic sidekick Minion (David Cross) might actually be the ones to save the day.

Megamind Button of Doom:
For their first day on the job as the new protectors of Metro City, Megamind (Will Ferrell) and Minion (David Cross) are selling off the gadgets from their evil lair. But when one seemingly harmless “button” unleashes the gigantic robot MEGA-MEGAmind, the duo will have to resort to their old tricks to restore order
