What the Folk!

Except Jemaine's name isn't there any more........

Yeah I had to double check that the first trailer had his name in it.

Confirmation!!!

There are a lot of other new stills from the film at this site too. Thanks to Ami for the heads up on this

Whaaaaaaaaaat?

Like, that's awesome but seriously unless their voices change to his at the end or something, couldn't anyone's voice have done for that?

I know it kind of sucks that they won't sound like him. But didn't he say in an interview that when he went in to record his parts that they didn't have a script for him and they just let him do his thing? So it will be a whole movie of unscripted little Jeminions being all adorable and I bet the animators will thow in some of his mannerisms and facial expressions. Jemaine will shine through! I'm not worried.

Jeminions.

Heh, heh, Jeminions.

THIS.

Despicable Me to be featured at LA Film Festival:

LOS ANGELES (May 4, 2010) - Today Film Independent, the non-profit arts organization that produces the Spirit Awards, the Los Angeles Film Festival, and year-round artist development programs and exhibition events, announced the official selections for the 2010 Los Angeles Film Festival, presented by the Los Angeles Times. The Festival will run from Thursday, June 17 to Sunday, June 27 in downtown Los Angeles, with its central hub at L.A. LIVE. Now in its sixteenth year, the Festival is recognized as a world-class event, showcasing the best in new American and international cinema and providing the movie-loving public with access to critically acclaimed filmmakers, film industry professionals, and emerging talent from around the world.

The 2010 Los Angeles Film Festival will screen over 200 feature films, shorts, and music videos, representing more than 40 countries. This year, the Festival received more than 4,700 submissions from filmmakers around the world. The final selections represent 28 World, North American, and U.S. premieres, which more than doubled from 2009. The number of films competing in the narrative and documentary competition categories also increased this year from 13 to 18, of which half are World premieres.

Universal Pictures' world premiere of the 3-D CGI feature Despicable Me will close the Festival on June 27 at Nokia Theatre L.A. Live. The film is directed by Chris Renaud and Pierre Coffin with an all-star cast including Steve Carell, Jason Segel, Russell Brand, Kristen Wiig, Will Arnett, Danny McBride, Jemaine Clement, Miranda Cosgrove, Jack McBrayer, and Julie Andrews. One of the world's greatest super-villains, Gru (voiced by Steve Carell), is planning the biggest heist in the history of the world: to steal the moon (Yes, the moon!) in Despicable Me. Surrounded by an army of mischievous little yellow minions and armed with his arsenal of shrink rays, freeze rays, and battle-ready vehicles, Gru vanquishes all who stand in his way. Until the day he encounters the immense will of three little girls who look at him and see something that no one else has: a potential Dad. Despicable Me opens nationwide in Real D 3D on July 9, 2010.

(p.s. I did look for 'Boy' to be listed, I don't see it on the list. Drat!)

Yes! Hopefully, I'll get to work a shift on June 27 or acquire a pass somehow. I'm excited!

Yay vmh! I really hope you get a pass--and another chance to meet Jem!

V that would be so incredible. I am sending good vibes baby!!!

Just a heads-up for anyone home or who can turn on the tv right now. Steve Carrell is on Ellen right now and they've mentioned Despicable Me. Don't know if they'll show a clip or not but just thoguth I'd let y'all know.

They did show a clip I hadn't seen yet w/ Gru and all of the minions but they were mainly cheering. No individual voices....

Darn it! I didn't have much access to a computer this weekend and it looks like all the closing day shifts for LA Film Fest have been filled. This means I won't get to work the Despicable Me premiere unless someone drops outs. I'm not giving up though.
