Minions director again pressed about franchise's self-inflicted Hitler association
By
William Hughes
Summary
The article discusses how the director of the Minions franchise is repeatedly forced to address the question of whether the Minions worked for Hitler's Nazi regime. It notes that this persistent question is a problem of the franchise's own making, stemming from the 2015 film Minions which established that the yellow characters are instinctively drawn to serve the most evil person they can find. The article is presented as a humorous/satirical take on this recurring controversy.
