Toon Zone Talkback - DreamWorks' "Oobermind" Retitled to "MegaMind"

Oobermind sounded exotic and intriguing.

Megamind is just... generic. Something meant not so much for theatres but something like those crappy knock-off direct-to-video CG movies built on its success.
 
MegaMind is also a name of a movie moster from the candian animated series "Sickin' Around".

I look forward to a pez Dispenser of Will Ferrell's Character in the movie.
 
Odd, I find him less annoying as an animated character than in real life.

I find it interesting that the trailer doesn't hint at all that:

Metro Man dies at the hands of Megamind early in the film.

I hope that's never revealed in ads, so I can see everyone's expression in the theater be like:
:eek:
 
And in the next few months, the movie will undergo a further name change, swaping "Megamind" for "Supermind" and thus becoming even more generic. :p

Seriously, not interested in this movie at all. Pixar already made the perfect animated superhero movie, and although The Incredibles was more about action and characters than humor, its comedy bits will probably still remain way funnier than the entirety of Master/Oober/Megamind.
 
Ever since I heard that Robert Downey Jr was up for the part, I've imagined the character being portrayed a bit different than I'm seeing now. This just sounds like Will Ferrell imitating the alien character from Monsters Vs Aliens, imo.
 
My interest is greatly increased from the stupidiotic teaser. This looks like it could be a fun spoof. I might end up seeing it with my friends. If not, I'll wait for DVD.
