Despicable Me 2 on DVD and Blu-Ray Combo Pack-Must Have this Holiday Season {#DM2}

Are you and your family familiar with Minions yet?  I am sure you have seen the first Despicable Me right? You are probably already in love with those hilarious Minions and Gru’s sweet family.  My family loved the first Despicable Me so when Despicable Me 2 came out I knew we had to see it ASAP.  My husband and I were laughing just as hard as Hayden was as we watched Despicable me 2.

Gru has given up being a villain to be a super-dad.  Gru’s sweet girls are darling as ever, and the Minions are up to more mischievous stunts. Gru tries to balance his new life as a dad, but also a new job opportunity working for the Anti-Villian League, while partnered with secret agent Lucy Wilde.  There are also more really cute and entertaining characters to keep everyone laughing.

Here is the official trailer for this fantastic and hilarious movie:

I know Hayden’s favorite parts  of this movie are with all the super entertaining Minions.  To be honest, the Minions are one of my favorite parts as well.  Hayden laughs out loud and really hard the entire movie.  The Minions are so unpredictable, and it is so amusing to see what they come up with next.  Hayden is constantly trying to mimic what they say and do.

Despicable Me 2 arrives on Blu-Ray Combo Packs and DVD on December 10, 2013, from Universal Studios Entertainment.  The movie will also be available on Digital HD November 26, 2013.  Despicable Me 2 would be perfect for those long trips in the car to see family for the holidays, or be a great stocking stuffer.

The Blu-ray Combo Packs also include three all-new mini-movies starring all your favorite characters and those loveable Minions. For a sneak peek of these mini-movies, and other great weekly offers from Despicable Me 2, call Gru at **DM2 (**362) from your mobile phone.*  

Here is a sneak peak at one of the mini-movies:

While you are watching the 87^th Annual Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade this year keep your eyes out for the brand new Despicable Me 2 float featuring Gru and all of his Minions.

I know your family will love Despicable Me 2 as much as my family does.  This is definitely our new favorite movie for the season, and it would make a great gift for the whole family.
