Megamind

Trivia: When Megamind as Bernard is in the library with Roxanne, the book he is reading ("Megamind Unmasked") has a description on the back of a self-help book entitled "The Happiest Me I Can Be". This is the same book that Metroman read (shown later in flashback) that caused him to decide to cease to be a hero. (00:43:30 - 01:08:30)

Trivia: When Metroman (voiced by Brad Pitt) makes his entrance at the museum opening, he walks in to the song from Elvis "A Little Less Conversation." This song is commonly played during the Ocean's 11/12/13 movies, in which Brad Pitt also stars. (00:10:00)

Trivia: During Megamind and Metroman's final battle in the beginning of the film, just after Megamind yells at Minion to fire the death ray, Metroman can be seen (from the crowd's point of view on the giant monitors) to fade out slightly from the observatory and fade in just behind Megamind's right shoulder. This corresponds to, and foreshadows, Metroman's flashback shown later. (00:17:50)

Trivia: Megamind asks Roxanne if Metro Man had a "solitary fortress." This is a reference to Superman, whose getaway is called the "Fortress of Solitude."

Continuity mistake: While Megamind is in the Metroman Museum, he uses his dehydrator gun and turns Bernard into a little blue cube. He puts the cube in his pocket, then picks up Bernard's cellphone and glasses. At the end of the movie, inserted into the credits is a short scene where Minion is doing laundry. As he approaches the washing machine, Bernard pops out of it, having been rehydrated in the wash - with his glasses perched askew on his head. (00:30:05 - 01:28:20)

More quotes from Megamind

Question: How is Megamind's robot able to do exactly what he does? We don't see him push any buttons or anything, so how is this possible?

Answer: Mad Science. There's an old science fiction writers' saying that "Poorly explained science is better than DUMB science, " so exactly how it works isn't important, it just works.

Captain Defenestrator

Answer: Because he trained him.

Answer: I could be wrong, but I always figured that Megamind had created I device that would be able to have Minion control the robot thing with his mind.
