Pixar gets a lot of credit for its track record, both critical and commercial, but Illumination's is just as impressive if not more so. The only time the studio has missed the mark, arguably, was the Easter-themed movie Hop. The film stars Russell Brand (at the peak of his fame) as the Easter Bunny's son, E.B., who decides to head to Hollywood in h...
Even with a casting changeup after the ousting of Louis C.K., The Secret Life of Pets 2 was still a box office hit. With that being said, its success was minor compared to that of the original, which has proven to be a pattern in Illumination's filmography outside of Despicable Me. The sequel's Box Office Mojo page puts the budget at $80 million, w...
Sing 2 didn't quite meet the bar of quality set by the original, nor did it reach the same highs at the box office, but it did well for itself in its own right. It also brought on Pharrell, Letitia Wright, Bono, and Halsey as new angel-voiced animals. The musical sequel tacked $10 million onto the original's budget of $75 mil according to Box Offic...
The first time Illumination touched a Dr. Seuss property it was fairly early in their run. Yet even with its lesser-known status (compared to The Grinch or The Cat in the Hat), The Lorax made for a rebound after the studio's weakly-received Hop. March and April started to become the month for big-but-not-super-big movies around 2010. Films based on...
Despicable Me's trailer effectively sold it as a fun family film that could appeal to multiple demos, especially considering the fact that it was dealing with supervillainy just as superhero movies were blowing up. Even with a talented, audience-drawing cast including Steve Carell and Miranda Cosgrove, the film's real appeal right off the bat was o...
Despicable Me 3 gave audiences twice the Gru for the price of admission, and while it didn't reach the financial peak of the second installment, it earned an impressive amount of money for a third entry. 2017's chapter of the long-running animated franchise also introduced a great villain in Balthazar Bratt, played with perfect outlandish arrogance...
Despicable Me earned a franchise via the Minions, The Secret Life of Pets via the cuteness of animals (and the gargantuan celebrity of Kevin Hart), and Sing earned one via taking some of the most likable movie stars on the planet and having them sing beloved hits. Box Office Mojo's reported budget for Sing ($75 mil) was so low that it was able to o...
Benedict Cumberbatch took on the role of the Grinch for the animation studio's second dip into Seussworld, and it proved to be a different enough take to garner a substantial amount of audience interest. Ron Howard's live-action Jim Carrey extravaganza How the Grinch Stole Christmas may have sold more tickets 18 years before, but Illumination's The...
The Minions became a sensation from the moment Despicable Me's first trailer dropped, and there's little doubt they've been the key appeal to the franchise even over Gru and his heart-melting adopted kids. In hindsight, Minions was as inevitable as Despicable Me 2, and with a strong plot and a game performance by Sandra Bullock as the film's villai...
Despicable Me's week-over-week success guaranteed at least one sequel, and where that first filmwalked, Despicable Me 2 ran (particularly in international territories). It was a smash, even if it isn't one of Steve Carell's best movies, like the original. Despicable Me 2's domestic tally beat the original by over $110 million, but the most interest...
