Having grown up with the old, hand-drawn Disney cartoon movies, this is just amazing to look at.

I had to look twice at the release date - 2010? Oy, a long wait in store for this one.

Nancy, i'm giving away my age yet again but I remember when Disney's Jungle Book came out, it is still my most favorite Disney movie. The animation is gorgeous and the music is amazing. When I see the new stuff Disney is releasing like G Force it boggles my mind. Don't ya just love both the old & the new?

Unbeknownst to the neighbors, hidden beneath this home is a vast secret hideout. Surrounded by a small army of minions, we discover Gru (voiced by Steve Carell), planning the biggest heist in the history of the world. He is going to steal the moon (Yes, the moon!) in Universal's new 3-D CGI feature, "Despicable Me."
Gru delights in all things wicked. Armed with his arsenal of shrink rays, freeze rays, and battle-ready vehicles for land and air, he vanquishes all who stand in his way. Until the day he encounters the immense will of three little orphaned girls who look at him and see something that no one else has ever seen: a potential Dad.
The world's greatest villain has just met his greatest challenge: three little girls named Margo, Edith and Agnes.
