Comments

I have too many opinions on this movie, sorry.

[juliamon]

This complaint bothers me a lot on the grounds that it's not really any different than the first movie's message that everyone needs to have kids (even if they're adopted). It's really not worth getting bothered about. Every movie is going to offend someone in some way, no matter what they do.

A fan of the first movie will remember that Gru wasn't fond of the girls at first but they grew on him over time, just as he wasn't fond of Lucy at first but she grew on him too without him realizing it. They're just parallel character arcs for him, wherein he learns what it means to love people (familial in the first, romantic in the second).

It's also worth noting that in the first movie, when the girls were told they were being adopted their immediate assumption was that they'd have both a mom and a dad, and they were visibly disappointed when that wasn't the case. Sure, they warmed up to it and they love Gru now, but we know at least Agnes still wished she could have a mom as well. So it still feels appropriate for canon.
