Five ways Minions proved world domination at their Hollywood premiere
The Minions are rolling so hot in Hollywood, that even Sandra Bullock paid her respect by wearing Minion high heels to the Minions Los Angeles premiere on Saturday.
Here are the five signs of Hollywood domination we found at the premiere.
The Minions are literally bigger than Jon Hamm
Hamm says he's noticed in the past two Despicable Me films that the Minions were getting bigger and bigger in terms of popularity. So he jumped at the chance to play villain Herb Overkill in Minions.
On Saturday, Hamm was literally dwarfed by a giant, inflated Stuart Minion at the premiere.
Hamm was not alarmed by the looming presence. He called the Minions "a sort of the perfect unit of hilarity." That's actually a kind of perfect unit of a quote.
The Minions are immortalized in great works of art
We don't know art, but one knows Minion greatness when it's right in front of you. Some of the greatest Minion art works from around the world were collected for the Hollywood premiere. Look at the bold brush strokes in this eerily familiar work. Dare we call it a masterpiece? We shall.
There was a Minion Ferris Wheel and an entire Minion carnival
When Minions want to have fun, they go all out. At the Saturday premiere there was Minions bowling, a giant Ferris wheel, a giant slide, Minion t-shirt printing (yellow only, of course). There were also various games of skill including Knock-A-Minion.
We're sure they sent the bill for all of this to Minion minder Gru.
Minion Twinkies. Enough said.
The creation the world has waited for was on proud display, Minion-inspired Twinkies on cupcakes.
They'll be talking about those treats thousands of years from now since Twinkies actually do last that long. But Minion dessert experts came up with many other treats to pay their respects to the dessert-loving creatures.
There were all Minion Rice Krispies treats (deep yellow naturally). There were lots of Minion favorites, bananas. One doesn't see a full banana much at Hollywood premieres.
Right up there in Minion cuteness -- Minion marshmallow creations. You could just eat these up. Alright, we did.
No one went near the reserved Minions table
Some premiere-goers were left eating Minion Twinkies without a seat at the crowded party. That's Hollywood, baby. The Minions had their own, exclusive table even if they were not spotted sitting there. No one dared break the Minion embargo. Not smart if you want to work in this town again.
Minions run this place.
