Minions and Despicable Me Bundle at target on iTunes Store

A bundle of  Despicable me 1 & 2 and Minions is available on iTunes Store now. Generally speaking,  three films cost you about $50, now you can get the bundle with half price. Minions is the good movie to watch with family members. 

What you didn't know about Minions

The minions’ design was inspired by the Jawas from Star Wars and the Oompa Loompas from Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. At first there were talks of the minions being tall and orc-like.

The minions’ cute jumbled language “Minionese” is actually a mix of Spanish, English, French and Italian with additional elements of Russian and Korean. And they seem to understand English pretty well, too. They’re worldly little guys.
All of the minions are male and have been given standard English-style names. Dave, Carl, Kevin, Steve, Phil, Jerry, Tim, Bob, Lance, Stuart and Norbert are just a handful of the ones that have been mentioned by name. OK, now let's talk something about the movies.
The Despicable Me directors originally created minions to help make Gru more likeable for audiences. They wanted to surround him with childishness and incompetence.

Despicable Me Plot Summary

despicableme1
A man who delights in all things wicked, supervillain Gru (Steve Carell) hatches a plan to steal the moon. Surrounded by an army of little yellow minions and his impenetrable arsenal of weapons and war machines, Gru makes ready to vanquish all who stand in his way. But nothing in his calculations and groundwork has prepared him for his greatest challenge: three adorable orphan girls (Miranda Cosgrove, Dana Gaier, Elsie Fisher) who want to make him their dad.

Despicable Me 2 Plot Summary

Despicable_me_2_minions
Now that Gru (Steve Carell) has forsaken a life of crime to raise Margo, Agnes and Edith, he's trying to figure out how to provide for his new family. As he struggles with his responsibilities as a father, the Anti-Villain League -- an organization dedicated to fighting evil -- comes calling. The AVL sends Gru on a mission to capture the perpetrator of a spectacular heist, for who would be better than the world's greatest ex-villain to capture the individual who seeks to usurp his power.

Minions Plot Summary

Without a master to grovel for, the Minions fall into a deep depression. But one minion, Kevin, has a plan; accompanied by his pals Stuart and Bob, Kevin sets forth to find a new evil boss for his brethren to follow. Their search leads them to Scarlet Overkill, the world's first-ever super-villainess.

iTunes Movies: a friend with really good taste and the biggest film library imaginable.
On the iTunes Movie Charts, it was a big year for some of the usual suspects—Jurassic World, Avengers: Age of Ultron, and Fifty Shades of Grey, among the biggest films of the year, all did gangbusters business in iTunes rentals and purchases.

But iTunes has released several other Top 10 lists of the year’s most downloaded films on their platform, and it’s there that the surprises roll in—like the list of top independent movies, where last year’s best-picture Oscar nominees The Imitation Game and Bird man rule the roost alongside 2015’s sci-fi art-house phenom Ex Machina. Or the top documentaries list, where the gritty exploration of the drug war Cartel Land tops the chart, just above the Amy Winehouse doc, Amy.
The ability to watch small independent films from the comfort of your home is one of the many great things the Internet has brought us, but the iTunes Movies Store, with its consistent highlighting of indie films right there on the homepage, has brought more visibility to smaller projects than perhaps any other outlet. “Just including indies as part of the conversation alongside major films that most people may not have heard of before makes so much difference,” says Rebecca Sosa of A24, the distributor of Amy and Ex Machina.
AMY
For Eddy Cue, Apple’s senior vice president of Internet software and services, the realization that it was important to include smaller films alongside the big studio offerings came while watching the Academy Awards. “You have all of these documentaries or independent films that were nominated, and you’d never seen any of them,” he remembers. “One of the things we decided very early on was to attack this by trying to go after as many indies and docs as possible, and letting them know we were available.”
Apple wasn’t just making the films available, but promoting them heavily, featuring indies and docs in the “New and Noteworthy” section on the landing page and establishing rigorously curated categories where audiences knew they could find something great. “We just decided very early on that we were going to promote and highlight indie films and documentaries at the same levels we were doing that with Hollywood films,” Cue explains. “Part of it was getting people aware that these things existed, and as they become aware, they start flipping through and seeing stuff that’s there—most people are just amazed.”
“You could buy a horror title and put it on a digital platform three years ago and probably do O.K.,” says Paul Davidson, the senior V.P. for film and TV at the Orchard, the company that distributed Cartel Land. “That world has gotten so crowded. It’s super-important to pick up titles that have something unique . . . that a platform like iTunes sees it as a value add to their overall catalog and something they want to editorialize and merchandise to their consumers.”
It’s not just a matter of putting energy behind the films when they debut on iTunes, either. For Amy, says Sosa, the promotion began during the theatrical release in July, encouraging iTunes users to pre-order the film. “When it came out in October on iTunes, it already had half the amount of pre-orders as Ex Machina,” says Sosa—especially impressive given that Ex Machina had three times the box-office gross of Amy. “iTunes, they do their homework, they know their movies, they’re at the festivals,” Sosa says. “And they know equally how to promote.”
Ex Machina
“I don’t think it’s a surprise, when you look at the total revenue of a doc or indie title, a significant portion is coming from the iTunes platform,” says Davidson, who adds that Cartel Land made $1.3 million on cable and digital, nearly double its theatrical gross. “[iTunes] really have curated a great area of the store with respect to indies and documentaries. Consumers know where to go.”
Below, the iTunes Top 10 of 2015: the most downloaded films overall, the most downloaded independent films and documentaries, the most downloaded films that debuted at film festivals in 2015, and finally, the year’s “editorial picks”—as good a place as any to start catching up on the best films of the year.
