every single villain with minions would be utterly fucked if the heroes just introduced them to the concept of workers’ unions
While that Shrek scene is one of the best, I do feel some villains would survive the unionizing. Gru, for one, would have been fine even as a bad guy since he was still a good boss. Megamind would absolutely let Minion unionize, even if the union was just Minion.
Roxanne: A union?
Megamind: Yes, we’re very forward-thinking in this organization - very cognizant of workers’ rights.
Roxanne: But the point of a union is collective bargaining, and Minion is-
Megamind: Look, I weighed the costs and benefits, and if you want to have a three-hour debate about this, you do it.
Heinz Doofenshmirtz’s backup dancers are canonically unionized iirc
