Minions' voice artist and co-creator, Pierre Coffin, has confirmed the reason Stuart, Kevin, Bob, and their fellow Gru devotees, are all male. The undeniable stars of the hit Despicable Me franchise, the Minions, have all been confirmed as male by co-creator Pierre Coffin.
Minions are all male because they're 'stupid and dumb,' says their creator.
Minions (/ˈmɪnjənz/) are an all-male species of fictional yellow creatures that appear in Illumination's Despicable Me franchise. They are characterized by their childlike behavior and their language, which is largely unintelligible.
Easy answer, they don't exist.
"Minions are so dumb that they couldn't be girls," Coffin explained with a laugh. Additionally, the director confirmed that Minions cannot reproduce or divide themselves in any way to create more Minions.
Pierre Coffin, Minion co-creator and primary voice artist, has revealed the reason all of the Minions are male. Coffin has credited their collective stupidity for the Minions' exclusively male form.
Pierre Coffin, the inventor of our favorite yellow friends, confirms that “They're all male, non-reproducing, and immortal.” *I would like to take a moment to say that they can't all be male if they have no two distinguished reproductive organ sets, so basically, they have no gender.
What kind of language do the Minions speak? The Minions speak Minionese, sometimes called “the Banana language”. Minionese is what's known as a constructed language – or “conlang”. Conlangs are often a feature of works of fantasy and science fiction.
The Minions originate from the animated movie franchise, Despicable Me. The Minion Yellow represents warmth, optimism and joy which is in conscience with the personality of the characters in the animated movies.
In Despicable Me 2, It is shown that minions have bad eye-sight. Without glasses, minion's vision is blurry. When because of, a purple minion, one of the minions lost his goggles, he was not able to see properly. So that appear to be reason behind wearing goggle.
Gru is the son of Marlena and the Bald Terror, twin brother of Dru, the adoptive father of Margo, Edith, and Agnes, husband of Lucy, and the boss of the Minions.
Felonious Gru, mostly known by his surname Gru is the main protagonist of the Despicable Me franchise. Gru is a bald man who used to be the world's #1 supervillain.
Agnes Gru is one of Gru and Lucy's three adopted daughters, alongside her big sisters Margo and Edith. She is the youngest child of the three sisters. She greatly adores unicorns, as shown on various occasions. She appears in all four Despicable Me films and several of the mini movies.
The creator of the Minions explained the reason behind the lack of females in their population back in 2015 – and it's not what you might think. Talking to The Wrap, Pierre Coffin said, "Seeing how dumb and stupid they often are, I just couldn't imagine Minions being girls."
Practically, the variation allows for a greater storytelling breadth, with a much wider range of distinct characters to include and differentiate between. Keeping in mind all the Minions have been confirmed as male, the ability to differentiate between them becomes a lot more necessary.
MrTLexify considers Pupinia Stewart to be a role model, presumably because of their mutual hatred for Minions merchandise and memorabilia.
The Minions have personalities that are similar to the Raving Rabbids from the Rabbids video game series. Minions have only three fingers, possibly because most classic cartoon characters are drawn with only three (or four or five) fingers.
The Purple Minions, or Evil Minions, are the secondary antagonists of Illumination's 4th feature film Despicable Me 2. They were Gru's minions after being abducted by El Macho who turn them into purple monsters with the PX-41 serum for his global domination.
Minion Suits for Boys
But why are they wearing suits? Well, according to the filmmakers, it's because they're boys. "We wanted the boys in suits because minions are boys," said Pierre Coffin, one of the movie's directors.
Since he is the same height as the Minions, they refer to him as “mini-boss”. It's a name that Gru seems to resent, as it makes him seem small and insignificant, and he often corrects them by saying “I am not mini.” The Minions are obsessed with their “mini-boss”, Gru.
Minionese, as it's known, is a constructed language created by Despicable Me co-directors Pierre Coffin and Chris Renaud. While it may sound like incoherent babbling, the practically indistinguishable words are actually a handcrafted dialect specifically designed for the Minions.
