A real “Expectations vs Reality” scenario here. And that’s great!
Megamind really expected the Bernard disguise would last a really long time as Roxanne expected to be happy with who she thought was Bernard.
But as the reality sat in, something goes wrong and Roxanne finds out the truth.
When Roxanne asked the question: “Did you think I would ever be with you?” & Megamind said no (which actually made me cry), Roxanne looks back as they went their separate ways.
Later Megamind asked Roxanne if she looked back after dumping him. She lies and says no (denying her feelings for him & the reality of her falling for him).
After not getting help from Metro Man, Megamind accepts his reality of not being the good guy or getting (Roxanne) the girl and goes back to jail.
After defeating Titan, Megamind and Roxanne became an actual couple. No lies, no tricks, nor deception.
I was watching Megamind last week and got sleepy. So I paused it and went to bed. I haven’t had time to get back and finish it so every time I accidentally hit the tab this is staring at me.
