=== Roxanne Ritchi ===
{{quote| Voiced by [[Tina Fey]]}}
 
* [[Action Survivor]]
* [[Alliterative Name]]
* [[Blue Eyes]]
* [[Brainy Brunette]]
* [[Damsel in Distress]]: Roxanne is a parody of this. At first she's so used to being kidnapped and rescued that she's not fazed by it anymore. {{spoiler|However, she really ends up being in danger by the end.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Dating Catwoman]]}}: {{spoiler|She winds up falling for Megamind (without even realizing it). Trope is subverted when Megamind [[Heel Face Turn|switches sides]].}}
Line 130:
* {{spoiler|[[Loves My Alter Ego]]}}: {{spoiler|Falling for Megamind masquerading as Bernard.}}
* [[Magic Skirt]]: Her blue cocktail dress.
* [[Masculine Girl, Feminine Boy]]: The Masculine Girl to Megamind's Feminine Boy.
* [[Only Sane Woman]]
* [[Plucky Girl]]: In spite of not being an [[Action Girl]], she spend the entire later half of the film trying to fight in any way she can to the bitter end when things get really serious and holds on to a faith in [[Justice Will Prevail|the powers of good]] [[Hope Springs Eternal|at even the bleakest times]].
* [[Seen It All]]: When it comes to Megamind's dastardly plots and deathtraps.
* [[Single Woman Seeks Good Man]]: {{spoiler|She gets to know, and falls for, [[Noble Demon|the real Megamind]] [[Behind the Mask|behind the]] [[Jerkass Facade|villain persona]] when he's [[Loves My Alter Ego|under the guise]] of nerdy, unassuming "Bernard". They get together for real once he completes his [[Heel Face Turn]].}}
* [[The Snark Knight]]: Helps her get through each kidnapping by the hands of Megamind until Metro Man comes to rescue her, [[Mundane Fantastic|as usual]], and she can go on with the rest of her day.
* [[Wide -Eyed Idealist]]: According to Titan, she believes that there is at least some good in everyone, [[Sliding Scale of Idealism Versus Cynicism|in spite of her generally sarcastic attitude]]. {{spoiler|He then proceeds to prove her wrong.}}
 
=== Hal Stewart/Titan/[[Rouge Angles of Satin|"Tighten"]] ===
{{quote| Voiced by Jonah Hill}}
 
* {{spoiler|[[Ax Crazy]]}}
Line 156:
** {{spoiler|[[If I Can't Have You]]}}: {{spoiler|Roxanne's rejecting him is what initiates his [[Start of Darkness]].}}
* [[Man Child]] -> {{spoiler|[[Psychopathic Manchild]]}}
* [[Not So Different]]: {{spoiler|Megamind initially goes to ridiculous extremes in lashing out at the world to get attention, and ends up inadvertantly creating a much less competent counterpart.}}
* [[Rouge Angles of Satin]]: Hal apparently thinks its spelled "Tighten".
* [[Silly Rabbit, Idealism Is for Kids]]: {{spoiler|Roxanne tries talking some sense into Titan, saying that she knows there's still good in him. He simply scoffs at her that she sees good in ''everyone'', even when it's not there.}}
* [[Spell My Name Withwith an "S"]]: Most people still aren't entirely sure if his name is officially spelt Titan or Tighten. While it seems that {{spoiler|Megamind originally wanted to spell it as Titan}}, official printed media such as the "Art of" book, the character poster and the closing credits spell his name as Tighten.
* [[Stalker Withwith a Crush]]: To Roxanne.
* [[Super Speed]]
* [[Super Strength]]
* [[Take Over the City]]: Never seems concerned with anything beyond Metro City.
* {{spoiler|[[Took a Level Inin Jerkass]]}}
* {{spoiler|[[The Unfettered]]}}: {{spoiler|Which makes him much more dangerous than Metro Man.}}
* {{spoiler|[[We Can Rule Together]]}}: {{spoiler|In a twist, he suggests this to Megamind!}}
* {{spoiler|[[Yandere]]}}: {{spoiler|Again, to Roxanne.}}
 
=== Minion ===
[[File:megamind_3_1409megamind 3 1409.png|frame]]
{{quote| Voiced by David Cross}}
 
* [[Affably Evil]]: Even moreso than Megamind. In fact, he [[Punch Clock Villain|quite possibly has the]] [[Nice Guy|most pleasant personality]] of the entire cast.
* {{spoiler|[[Badass Biker]]}}: {{spoiler|When he's disguised as Megamind.}}
* [[Beleaguered Assistant]]/[[Sarcastic Devotee]]: Played with. For the most part, he takes his boss' screw-ups - and blaming for the screw-ups - in stride, but he still has his exasperated moments.
{{quote| '''Roxanne:''' (to Megamind) You're plan's failing! Just ''admit it.''<br />
'''Minion:''' Yeah, good luck with ''that'' one... }}
* [[The Brute]]
Line 189:
* [[Living Emotional Crutch]]: It's reasonable to assume that Megamind would've wound up far worse a villain [[Affably Evil|than]] [[Ineffectual Sympathetic Villain|he]] [[Noble Demon|did]] without Minion's companionship.
* [[Loyal Animal Companion]]/[[Non-Human Sidekick]]
* [[Minion Withwith an F In Evil]]: He's so pleasant throughout the entire film, that it's highly likely that he went along with Megamind's evil plans less because of being evil and more because it seemed to make his master/friend happy.
* [[Mobile Suit Human|Mobile Suit Fish]]: He's a fish-like alien in a large mecha-suit.
* [[Morality Pet]]
* [[Nice Guy]]: Yes, even as a villain's henchman. ''And'' an [[Dark Is Not Evil|alien-angler-in-ape-mecha-suit monstrosity]].
* [[Only Friend]]: Again, to Megamind.
Line 200:
* [[Yes-Man]]: As [[Word of God|described by the filmmakers]]: "He might suggest that jumping off a building isn't the best idea, but in the end, he wouldn't stop (Megamind); he would just race to the bottom and build a net."
 
=== Bernard ===
{{quote| Voiced by [[Ben Stiller]]}}
 
* [[Deadpan Snarker]]
Line 211:
* [[Perpetual Frowner]].
 
=== The Warden ===
{{quote| Voiced by J.K. Simmons}}
 
* [[Badass Mustache]]
Line 219:
* [[Da Chief]]
* [[Everyone Calls Him "Barkeep"]]: He is only addressed as 'warden' in the movie.
* [[Jerk Withwith a Heart of Gold]]: He was pretty supportive of Megamind and Minion when they {{spoiler|went off to fight Hal/Titan.}}
* [[Parental Substitute]]: He's commonly portrayed in fanfiction as a father figure for kid Megamind.
