My friend showed me this app today.

https://itunes.apple.com/app/id789121172

How did th use despicable me in the appname? and how did he use graphics?

I researched the app,it has very high rank by the way.

he said in the description ''non-official, just for FUN'' this is just ridiculous,app has in app purchase and same guy has another app and it has hello kitty graphics.

    Minion Characters owner is universal studios,he recreate as much as he can(spidey costume or whatever),despicable me(name) and characters are not his product.

    Can you use spiderman or ironman?same logic is here.

    When I send a update about World Cup Edition and I can't use ''World Cup'' because owner is FIFA.

    How can he use both in same application?

    Not to be racist but It seems like the asian culture doesnt promote anti-plagiarism very well...
