This will be my Hell, roughly six months after it comes out in June.
My children will be riveted by it. And don’t say Don’t show it to them, then. They have grandparents and Evil Aunts (who are proud of their villainy). They’ll be shown Despicable Me 3, and then it’s all, all over. I get to memorize the plot via osmosis! Joy!

PS: It’s not even that I hate the series, or find it horrible enough to ban (I do forbid them to watch stuff that my wife and I object to, and I make it stick). It’s that I will end up being more acquainted with the minutiae of this series than I am of, say, the Dune universe. Which if fine, except I didn’t precisely ask to enter into that dubiously enlightened state.
I feel for you man.
I can’t help it, I like the Despicable Me movies. Yes, and even the Minions movie.
Funny sidenote: at some point before the Minions movie came out, I went to Google Image search and typed in ‘minion’– and 99 percent of the hits were of the Despicable Me minions.
Question.

If you wouldn’t mind, could you rattle off a couple things on the “banned from Casa Lane” list?
.
As I recall, we tolerated Poke’mon, but banned Yu-Gi-Oh, on the grounds that the former had more of a strategic mindset and the latter had far more obnoxious “battlecries”..

There’s this French thing involving a mermaid and a shark and a hyena and a hell of a lot of unfortunate depictions of Africans and Asians. That’s the major one.
