The Reel Debaters went full Minion mode this week as we set up shop at Movies in the Park for a live commentary on Despicable Me 4!

In This Episode:

-How we got kicked off the stage by a recording from our hosting duties

-Should voice actors always change their voice, or is it okay to bring their own sound to the mic?

-What really went on behind the scenes to turn a villain and his Minions into a global animated empire?

-Which childhood animated favorites still hold up—and which deserve to be sent to the “Gru’s gadgets gone wrong” pile?

-And of course, we dive deep into the DreamWorks / Illumination cinematic universe, because nothing says “family fun” like corporate synergy and fart jokes.

From banana-level brilliance to plots that feel a little despicable, we’re breaking it all down with laughs, tangents, and a little nostalgia sprinkled in.

Grab your popcorn, watch out for stray freeze rays, and join us for a night where the only thing more animated than the screen… is us.


Host(s): Michael Petrow, Jimmy Skinner, Charles Fernandes

Producers: Jimmy Skinner and Charles Fernandes
