megamind is very self contained. i think you could make a sequel but its not begging for one

wasnt the first incredibles way better then the second

the difference between the incredibles and megamind is that the incredibles was known to be good from day 1 while megamind was a bit more of a cult classic (yes this is despicable me’s fault but shhh). the sequel just screams more cash grabby in this particular instance, especially because they weren’t even able to get two of the original vas and greenlit it anyway

the problem with incredibles 2 is that it completely ignores the underminer for all of the movie except 20m

The first Megamind was a peak subversion of the Superman and Lex Luther conflict, distinguishing these characters in a grand fashion. This sequel movie not only lacks the original voice actors, not only does the story look generic, but it also contradicts the first movie’s theming.

From the standpoint of people who watched the incredibles a decade ago and were adults by the time the second one came out, it is much worse than the original

For kids tho (which is also a big audience!!) i’d say they’re equal in Goodness?

its just that it was worse than the original by a large margin, partially because the original was very good
