One and a half year after the release of the first movie who sees them as undisputed protagonists, their success shows no sign of abating: Minions literally bewitched them all, children and grown up. The 2017 will see them again on the screen: Despicable me 3 will come out indeed in the US the 30th of June. Will the nice yellow tiny creatures make this fourth movie triumph epically again?
Why Minions are so delightful?
It has to be either for being clumsily bad, for their spontaneous comedy, or for the incomprehensible speech: the Minions make everyone’s smile stick out, even doing nothing special. Try asking to anyone who watched one of the movies Despicable me what remained marked to them: it must be one of the gags performed by the yellow creatures.
The characters of the funniest ever gang of minions have all the cards right not to be forgotten: a humanoid aspect, tender and goofy, their way of being paradoxical in an equally paradoxical world, the references to the pop culture, and above all, their ability to be read by the public notwithstanding speaking an invented language.
Behind the apparent simplicity of these tiny creatures, an immense strategic plan is concealed. Not only considering the promotion, even in regards to the invention of them: it doesn’t sound easy carrying out an entire film whose characters speak an incomprehensible language. All thanks to excellent writers, animators and graphic designers, who make this film memorable through the remarkable characters and their gestures.
Next to this, a great media campaign is steady, which pushed them and helped the little beings at establishing themselves in the popular imagination with an exorbitant speed. The result? Any type of gadget: parodies, inspired flash mobs, cosplayers taking their appearance: the fans are staunchest.

Waiting Despicable Me 3
All what is left to do is awaiting the film, to find out the new fun adventures that will see the Minions involved. As mentioned above, in US the movie will be released the 30th of June, whereas in Italy it must be awaited until the 24th of August.
Produced by Illumination Entertainment and distributed by Universal Pictures, the second sequel of Despicable Me will focus on the affairs about Gru, which, after marrying Lucy Wilde, will have to fight a new villain: Balthazar Bratt. Who is this? So far, he’s only renowned as a guy obsessed by his past as a child prodigy, status obtained after he had interpreted a cinematographic character in the 80s, which, except that particular episode, probably didn’t have success any longer. Besides, it is said that this one is the evilest antagonist against whom Gru ever fought. There is nothing left to do but watching the trailer meanwhile awaiting for the film release on summer!
