Hop/Trivia


 * This is currently Illumination's only live-action/animated hybrid film to date (Not counting The Secret Life of Pets 2 end credits), also the first one to be a non-sequel/prequel film and the last one to feature the 1997-2012 Universal Pictures logo; it also had lowest grossing merely more than $100 million among its works.
 * It is also Universal Pictures' fourth live-action/animated hybrid film, after Casper, Balto and The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle.
 * The third Universal's live-action/animated hybrid film to be rated PG by the MPAA, after Casper and The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle.
 * The CGI animated special effects were created by Rhythm & Hues Studios.
 * This is the first Illumination film to use profanity, followed by The Lorax and The Secret Life of Pets; as the word "cripple" is said once (referring to a handicapped person) and God's name is used in vain once. This is another reason for the film's PG rating.
 * This is the first Illumination film to be accompanied by only one short instead of three for home media releases, followed by Despicable Me 3.
 * With a Rotten Tomatoes rating of 25%, it is currently the lowest-rated Illumination film, and is often considered to be their worst film ever made.
 * This is the first Illumination film not to be converted to 3-D.
