Yesterday, December 14th 2010 the much anticipated (and Golden Globe nominated) Despicable Me was released on DVD and Blu-Ray.
If you don’t recall, this movie had serious effects on our household when the commercials for it starting hitting the TV prior to it being released in the theater.
During that time, our little Alexander was not much of a talker. His vocabulary basically consisted of Mommy, Juice and Ball at the time.
And then……then he learned this:
Yes. The commercials for Despicable Me taught my child to say, “It’s so fluffy!!”
Unfortunately, we never had a chance to see the film in theaters but we remained excited for it’s release in stores.
I’m happy to say that it is FINALLY on it’s way to our house for us to enjoy!
Here is a brief synopsis of the film:
In a happy suburban neighborhood surrounded by white picket fences with flowering rose bushes, sits a black house with a dead lawn. Unbeknownst to the neighbors, hidden deep beneath this home is a vast secret hideout. Surrounded by an army of tireless, little yellow Minions, we discover Gru (Steve Carell), planning the biggest heist in the history of the world. He is going to steal the moon. Yes, the moon!
Gru delights in all things wicked. Armed with his arsenal of shrink rays, freeze rays and battle-ready vehicles for land and air, he vanquishes all who stand in his way. Until the day he encounters the immense will of three little orphaned girls who look at him and see something that no one else has ever seen: a potential Dad.
One of the world’s greatest super-villains has just met his greatest challenge: three little girls named Margo, Edith and Agnes.
