Here is the plot description for “Megamind”:
Megamind is the most brilliant super villain the world has ever known – and the least successful. Over the years, he has tried to conquer Metro City in every imaginable way.
Each attempt is a colossal failure thanks to the caped superhero known as Metro Man until the day Megamind actually defeats him in the throes of one of his botched evil plans. Suddenly, the fate of Metro City is threatened as chaos runs rampant. That leaves everyone to wonder: Can the world’s biggest “mind” actually be the one to save the day? “Megamind” will be released in 3D, IMAX 3D and theatres on Nov. 5, 2010.
The movie trailer for “Megamind” can be watched now below.

I’m certain it would be
I’m certain it would be both over the long haul. Brawn may win a few battles but brains and brawn combimed will win the war….
BRAINS, BRAWN, OR BOTH?
OH, I THINK BRAINS ARE WAY MORE FUN… GOULISH LAUGH… HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
" EASY "
A balance of both…..taken a step further, with the use of leverage, the brains and brawn of others makes you a lean mean machine !!!
Brawn or Brains
A combo of both works. You don’t always have to be brawny to win a fight.
Brain, Brawn or Both?
Definitely - a balance of both
Obviously a balance of both.
Obviously a balance of both. You won’t win with just one or the other.
A bit of both...
They each have their strengths and weaknesses - for example, knowing where to strike is key if you are not strong or have a black belt in Karate. However, you’ll need to think fast when trying to fight off a raging bull with the strength of 20 guys. Once that brute takes a firm hold of you, it’s lights out.
Duh
A balance of both… the ability to fight a person mentality and physically will result in the ultimate defeat.
Balance
A Balance of both but mostly brain.
Megamind
A balance of both. For sure.
