They are impulsive creatures with little self-control, but with a wide-eyed wonder and odd innocence
that endears them to viewers and makes them relatable. They can be pesky when they are
doing weird interactions with other people, animals, or objects. Minions have standard
English names (see below).
Unlike most other criminal masterminds and their usual doctrine of abusing their henchmen,
Gru gets along famously with his minions. He genuinely seems to like them and even shows
appreciation for their hard work and support. He even seems to know each of them by name.
Contents[show] Appearance
A rambunctious bunch of simple-minded homunculi, Minions are a similar size and shape, but
have unique features to tell them apart, such as height, number of eyes, roundness or secondary
features such as hair, eye/pupil size or clothing.
Minions wear metal goggles accommodating their number of eyes, blue overalls with Gru's emblem
on the front, and small black gloves.
Minions possess few additional physiological characteristics; with a crack and a shake,
they can double as glow sticks for activities in the dark, such as going through ventilation
ducts. They additionally can survive without air, as one is seen in outer space without
oxygen in Despicable Me.
Though there are several hundred minions, there are only about forty-eight possible
combinations of height and build (short and chubby, medium, tall and thin), hair (tall
buzz-cut, short buzz-cut, sprout, combed, spread out, bald), and eyes (one, two). One-eyed
minions are always almost all small, although a tall one-eyed minion appears in a promotional
artwork.Tall Minions are all with Sprout-Cut Hair. Minions are redesigned in the second
film and some notable minions (such as Kevin, Jerry, John and Phil) are heavily redesigned.
However it is debatable that there are multiple minions having the same name.
Personality They are fiercely loyal to Gru and Dr. Nefario
and extremely eager to please, willingly helping with any evil plans, but at the same time
they are friendly and fun-loving. Despite being relatively simple-minded, they are capable
of building weapons, operating those weapons, using computers, and even driving.
They choose to express themselves through actions, not words: their "language" is fairly
basic, they speak in a strange jabber combined with various human languages - evident in
some (roughly) English words such as "Banana", "Bapples" (basically "Apple" with "B"), "Potato",
as well as Spanish-sounding words like "para tú" (roughly "for you") and "la boda" (means
"marriage"), French (poulet tikka masala, et pis c'est tout), Russian words such as
"да" (Da"), and Korean words such as "Hana(하나), Dul(둘), Sae (From Set [셋]" means One,
Two, Three), and many other languages. Hence, their language is incomprehensible to most
humans, though they do understand English. It is also possible to isolate elements of
Japanese from their speech patterns.
Minions love bananas and apples (or "bapples", as they call them), and the mere sight of
one of these fruits can result in complete chaos. They also enjoy fine arts and find
anything having to do with buttocks extremely funny. There are few things these little guys
do not find funny. They also love spitting, frog legs, bunnies, and building things. They
love trying new things and presumably they also love potatoes (they mention potatoes
on occassion.) They dislike being unsure of themselves, and when Gru leaves questions
unanswered. Their sense of humor is somewhat childish, if not silly, laughing from the
sound of bubbles in a water filter, scanning their own butt in a copy machine and when
mentioned words such as "botton".
Minions also enjoy playing, especially with Agnes, Edith, and Margo, as seen in the toilet
paper fight scene.
