1. Shroom vroom brooom. Haha.

2. I think we’ve already had way more than enough Minions, in any form.

3. Just cast Peter Dinklage so he’ll shut up about little people roles in Hollywood.

4. Stop making shitty live action remakes. They’re all F-tier cashgrab garbage.

5. while Universal Pictures: 👀✍️

6. Its wouldnt be live action. It would be CGI, with a couple of real world actors shooting with tennis balls for placement reference. Live action would be actual people running around painted yellow, and scoffing all the bananas.

   Like the lion king “live action” is not live action. Its just another kind of animation.

7. We’re also getting live-action Stitch, too!

8. Tom Hooper blinks several times at this post. He sits up on the toilet a little straighter and his gaze drifts to the shower tile as he imagines Kevin Hart as a minion. “Why not?” He asks out loud, louder than he intended. Actors’ bodies could be digitally wrapped around the minions shapes…still recognizable as themselves but stretched around the pill wireframe. He shakes his head in exasperated admiration, “Tom you hopelessly inspired genius, you!” and dials his agent.
