(( Megamind cares about the city, but sees the corrupt and broken police and justice system as something to be thwarted rather than worked within. Part of how he cares for his city is be taking measures against the criminal elements in the poor and broken down areas of the city. Bushing down normal gang activity, protecting local shops that sell things the community needs like cheap food. Supporting low-cost housing. Helping his Uncles set up businesses that are willing to hire ex-criminals.
All this comes back around to the fact that Hal lives in a very poor neighborhood. Whether or not people fully know that Mr. Blue the kingpin that protects their area is Megamind, the area is still a very Megamind friendly area. His Uncles make sure of that. In these neighborhoods, there is far more respect and praise for those who fight the system that crushed them.
So Hal, living in that environment. Poor and spirit broken. It’s no wonder that he idolizes the blue man who fights against the system and the man. After all the only reason Hal even contemplated being the hero was to win the ‘prize’ not because he idolized Metro Man. ))
