‘Minions & Monsters’ originally planned to reveal that the Minions were born from the Big Bang and even helped create Earth: “They helped the separation of the moon and what would become the Earth.” (via @Polygon)

I'm sorry but pushing back on the director of Minions about whether or not they served Hitler is so funny 😭😭 fair play person at Polygon.

MINIONS & MONSTERS reopens the possibility that the Minions served Hitler during WWII. So of course, Polygon asked the director (who also voices the Minions) where the Minions are Nazis

This is what Minions creator Pierre Coffin said when asked if Minions can die “We tried multiple times, but they seem to come back alive every time for some reason. So I'm guessing they can't die.” Via: polygon.com/minions-question… #minions #films

It's funny how it's still implied that the Minions WOULD have worked for Hitler and the writers had to come up with an excuse for that to not have happened

Disney's 8-hour masterpiece from 2 legendary Simpsons writers is so good you'll finish it this...

Both ABC and Fox failed to see its greatness, but 30 years later, it still enjoys a cult fanbase
