Tanya on Instagram: "🎬 Fun Fact: Despicable Me 2 (2013) to animate the Minions more effectively, the animators studied classic silent film comedians like Charlie Chaplin and Buster Keaton. Since the Minions don’t use real dialogue, their comedy had to come through exaggerated body language and timing. This physical humor style was so successful that it inspired Illumination to greenlight the Minions spin-off movie, turning side characters into global icons."
