Spoiler
The main character is an alien and due to some part of the plot, he transforms himself into a human. In his human form he begins to date the main woman character, so leading a double life. At a restaurant, they kiss each other, but his device that turns him into a human breaks, and he transforms back into an alien mid kiss. The woman opens her eyes and is horrified at being deceived. So I would count this as assault because of this, it’s assault by deceit

There is, technically; it’s made pretty explicitly clear that it’s really only the characters playing into their ‘designated roles’ (it is, to be honest, a pretty satirical take on superhero films) and it’s obvious there are no sinister motivations or ulterior motives.

There is a set-up to Megamind's friend (an otherwise masculine alien fish) dressing in pink frilly clothes and a wig that appears to be a setup to a "man in a dress" joke that doesn't happen when Megamind compliments him genuinely. It's *chefkiss*.

The villain spoils some magic for kids. They try to mitigate it by inserting something real, so you don't know if he's really spoiling or just "full-of-beans" but it skates the line pretty closely!
Titan: "You're so naive, Roxy. You see the good in everyone, even when it's not there. You're living a fantasy. There is no Easter Bunny. There is no Tooth Fairy. There is no Queen of England. This is the real world, and you need to wake up!"
