About "MEGAMIND"
MEGAMIND (Will Ferrell) is the most brilliant super-villain the world has ever
known...and the least successful. Over the years, he has tried to conquer Metro
City in every imaginable way - Each attempt, a colossal failure thanks to the
caped superhero known as "Metro Man," (Brad Pitt) until the day Megamind
actually defeats him in the throes of one of his botched evil plans. Suddenly,
the fate of Metro City is threatened when a new villain arrives and chaos runs
rampant, leaving everyone to wonder: Can the world's biggest "mind"
actually be the one to save the day?
