It's enough to make a supervillain cry.
"Minions: The Rise of Gru," the latest film in the "Despicable Me" franchise, was released on July 1 and immediately set the record for most successful premiere during a July 4 weekend, according to IMDb. The film earned $123 million over the four-day opening.
The movie premiere also created a stir due to a TikTok trend called “Gentleminions,” a call for moviegoers to attend the film in formalwear and get rambunctious whenever the minions appear onscreen. The trend led to dozens of teens dressed in formalwear moshing and creating disturbances at theaters across the U.K.

"Why are teenagers in suits being banned from Minions movie theaters?
Suited-up teens may be going a bit too bananas for the new Minions. Some movie theaters in the U.K. have banned teenagers in suits from screenings of Minions: The Rise of Gru amid the spread of a TikTok meme that involves showing up hilariously overdressed to the animated film, BBC News reports."

It seems those kids want to BE the center of the entertainment and take the enjoyment away from those who go to see the movie, whatever that is...
