You know what's even worse about Bob's situation? In the special edition DVD set, there's files on all the superheroes and their powers and for Mr. Incredible it lists that he had a "sixth sense" that lets him sense when and where there's immediate danger (which may or may not be enhanced hearing). It's actually subtly alluded to if you look closely: - Just before Bomb Voyage appeared, Bob sensed something before the explosion went off. - Bob sensing someone in the living room with him in the dark after he returned from his night of vigilante work before realizing it was his wife. - Bob sensing a man being mugged when he's in his boss's office. Now imagine living 15 years knowing when and where people were in danger or there were criminals around hurting people and not being allowed to do anything about it. It's no wonder Bob was so depressed.

Especially since it's implied Helen is ex-military.

The character design of Edna Mode is based on 8-time Oscar winning costume designer Edith Head and voiced by the director Brad Bird.

Apparently Brad called a voice actress and did the voice as like "this is what were going for" and the voice actress just said "why do you need me, you already got it!"

[@enlightendbel]

She's widely, but nowhere near exclusively believed to be based of Edith Head. There is no actual confirmation or even hint from the designer of the character that she is. I'm betting she's probably an inspirational mix between Edith Head, Linda Hunt and Iris Apfel. Linda for the obvious physical parameters and spice she brings to roles and the other two for being eccentric fashion icons.

And she was rock solid adamant that there was no way Bob was getting a cape. Just not gonna happen.

[@Cinemabu11]

One detail I love is how Syndrome view his interaction with Mr. Incredible as a kid. From Syndrome's perspective, Mr. Incredible just waves his hand, dismisses him and walks away. But in reality, Mr. Incredible was holding Bomb Voyage and saying fly home because he was busy and dealing with something. It's all about his warped perspective and ego.

[@DocuzanQuitomos]

It's a mixture, in reality. Of course, Syndrome is so fixated in his personal ambitions he doesn't "read the room" nor remembers all the elements that produced that reaction in Mr. Incredible. But here is the catch: Mr. Incredible partially is exactly like that; his biggest fan not only copied the costume, but also some of Bob's vices in that time of his life. While a good person, Bob insists he can do everything on his own, doesn't pay much attention to other people's needs (if he is fixed on something he wants), doesn't read the room (if he thinks he is right)... The demons that come back to haunt him are not only a pissed person he disregarded lightly; but the natural unchecked evolution of some of the traits that once Bob held as core parts of his personality: I am outstanding, things have to be done my way (Syndrome is a genius inventor); I am only worthy, if I make extraordinary feats (he consider superheroics only consist of big and awesome displays of power); I don't need help, I work alone (calls off Bob's gamble by teasing him to kill Mirage). Back in the day, Bob failed to noticed he not only pissed the wrong person; he didn't notice he had attracted a potentially dangerous fan for all the wrong reasons.

[@SebastienGendron-uk4po]

@@DocuzanQuitomos Good point, if Bob was a little nicer and sat down with the kid and explained the dangers of being a superhero at a young age then Bob could have avoided a future villain, saved the lives of other heroes, and potentially could have gained a super genius sidekick (a guy in a chair type), imagine the guilt he felt after the aftermath (then again I can't blame Bob for snapping at him since he only appeared while he was preoccupied and wasn't in the best mood, as you mentioned). Now I want a prequel movie of Syndrome's life through his perspective after each attempt to impress Mr. Incredible failed (what were his parents like, how did they cope with a super genius son, how did ''Buddy'' cope with failure in trying to impress his hero, what was his teenage life was like since he started hating Mr. Incredible when he was a kid, what sort of punishment did he get when he was arrested.

I honestly love the intensity of the jet scene, you’d expect for a kids film for Elastigirl to do the whole “you can do this, I believe in you” speech, but instead as a mother she’s just screaming and shouting and the plane still goes down. No way they’d do that these days

[@arandomnamegoeshere]

There was "no way they'd do that" back then either. Yet they did. Not because its a sign of the times. But because it's just good, solid story telling. With class. It's not as easy to do. We see that played out over decades of cinema. But there are examples over the decades when the right talents bounce off each other and it clicks. Pixar, of course, had a knack of doing that more often than not.

[@Kragar01]

That scene was going to be darker originally. The friend she called to get the plane was going to be the one piloting and when they get shot down he was going to get killed. It was to up the stakes originally but was decided it was too heavy, having someone die because Vi couldn’t save them and Elastigirl saved her kids and left her friend would have changed the tone of the whole movie.

I think it's incredibly poetic that Syndrome gets killed by his cape and in the same exact way as Stratogale, who was only 17 at the time of death, and just like with all the others that died because of their capes Edna felt extreme guilt over it, it's like the thing she hated the most saved the people she loved the most. Plus the fact that all those heroes as well as some that were directly killed by Syndrome, like Gazerbeam, were Bob and Helen's friends (you even see them at their wedding) makes that moment very cathartic in my opinion.

[@samwallaceart288]

It's emblematic of how Syndrome is all flash and no substance; he likes the idea of being a hero but doesn't respect the reality of it. Edna adores the style and mythology, but truly understands the practical responsibility she must bear for her darlings. Syndrome should've just stuck to being an inventor

“Look at those…glutes!” Yeah, there’s a theory that whoever designs Pixar’s women has a thing for, well, glutes. Violet has the exact powers of Sue Storm in Marvel’s Fantastic Four - invisibility and invisible force fields.

[@JeffKelly03]

Regarding the powers, it's interesting how much the powers reflect the family dynamic: Bob is super strong / thinks he needs to have the strength to support his whole family and carry everything on his shoulders; Helen is flexible and can stretch / moms have to be super flexible and are often stretched way too thin caring for their families; Violet can turn invisible and create shields / she's a shy, awkward tween who doesn't want the world to see her and wants to shield herself; Dash has super speed / he's a hyperactive little kid who's always going 100 MPH.

I liked the explanation by the creature of why each member of the family got the powers they got. Mr. Incredible is the strong man who is the head of the family, which is why he has super strength. I Elsta-Girl is a mom that is emotionally and physically pulled in so many directions, so she can stretch. Flash is a young boy with seemly endless amount of energy, so he can run fast. Violent at teenager who girls of that age put themselves in their personal bubble and socially feel like they are invisible, so she has those powers. Jack Jack who's a baby and babies are looked with having unlimited potential, so he has so many different powers.

This is my favourite Pixar Movie of all time! I always loved super heroes and when i watched this as a kid i was super excited! I waited forever for a sequel and when I gave up hoping for it, suddenly there was a second movie announced! And even though I was already an adult, I was totally thrilled again and went to the movies to watch it

[@gabbiness]

This is one of my favorite Pixar movies! I love when families have adventures together, because it's so rare! Also that scene when the missiles are coming for the plane and Helene screams that there's children aboard, it hits me so hard!

[@ronfehr7899]

I don't know if you're into trivia, but the kid on the tricycle outside the Parr home was voiced by one of director Brad Bird's sons. The minister marrying Bob and Helen was voiced by producer John Walker. Kari, the baby sitter, was voiced by one of the Pixar artists, Brit Parker (not sure if I got her name right).

[@michaelcurtis8520]

Saw this in college with some friends with little to no expectations. It blew us all away! We had to tell everyone to go and see it!

[@arbee89]

To this day, this is still my favorite Pixar film. To me, it's perfect and Bob's line toward the end of the film encapsulates everything: "I can't lose you. Not again. I'm not strong enough." His family meant the world to him and to think he's lost them because of something he did (becoming a superhero behind their backs) would be devastating and heartbreaking. It truly is a great thesis for this movie. That being said, if you've seen The Incredibles (which, obviously you have), you've basically seen Incredibles 2... It's unfortunate, but they really didn't branch out far from the original on that sequel.

[@crimsonghoul8983]

Well, there are still some awesome scenes between Edna Mode and Jack Jack in the sequel. Plus Dash running through the portals...chef's kiss.

[@danielhenderson3753]

[@BatmanFan76]

This movie is definitely one of Brad Bird’s classics. It has great satire on the Superhero genre, it has a lovable superhero family, and most importantly it’s the closest thing we’ll get to an actually good Fantastic Four movie.

[@martophrenia]

Is it even a satire tho?

[@martophrenia]

​@@BatmanFan76 still not a satire, not even a parody. the movie doesn't make fun of superheros as a whole, just a few jokes at the most tired tropes at best. X-Men movies made the jokes about spandex, that didn't make those movies satire

[@BatmanFan76]

⁠​⁠​⁠@@martophreniaWell, actually for the X-Men movies, that wasn’t really much of a joke. That was actually more of just references we all saw coming. This movie is about superheroes made up on the spot and not based on anything. So if it’s not based on anything and it constantly makes fun of superhero cliches, it’s satire. Don’t be a boomer.

[@martophrenia]

​@@BatmanFan76 that's just not what satire is. the fact that it's original work doesn't make it a satire. here's a definition of satire: "a way of criticizing people or ideas in a humorous way". The Incredibles do NOT criticise superhero genre or the idea of a superhero as a whole, it's literally a love letter to it. and yes, that's was definitely a joke in the first X-men movie. movies based on marvel and dc comics joke about tired superhero tropes and cliches all the time. also calling someone a boomer in 2924 is such a boomer move btw lmao

29:37 This hurts so much as this film achieved what 20th Century Fox failed to pull off with their Fantastic Four films. This film is the perfect F4 movie, a family drama above anything else and that's how the Fantastic Four are depicted in the comics, Marvel's First Family. It has the same feel and mood of those original 1960s comics and it's just perfect. Cannot wait for Fantastic Four (2025) more so now that the film will have a timeless 1960s retro futuristic art direction. It's about time the F4 get done justice in live action.

@@crimsonghoul8983 At his core, Ben Grimm thinks he not strong enough and because of his deformation thinks he is a monster. Its a much smaller scale but Mr. Incredible doesn't think he is strong enough to protect his family and Violets shyness comes from a form of low self esteem.

[@Avetho]

Frankly, I think its quite fitting, since the past section of the movie before Bob and Helen's wedding was set in the 1950s or 60s, and the later parts were set in the 1970s or 80s.

Can't believe this movie is 20 years old. You can tell the animation is old, but it still holds up. It doesn't look ugly, I think the character design is mostly the reason for this.

I watched this one so much as a kid. The emotional transitions between comedy and drama are so seamless, I love the characters and the whole concept of the story (mind you, this came out in 2004, 4 years before the MCU). It's easily one of the greatest superhero movies of all time.

[@juliewagner3023]

you need to watch Jack Jack Attack, is a short film that shows what happened while he was with the babysitter Incredibles 2 also have a short film (Auntie Edna) and also features Jack Jack there's also a extra from the dvd that tells more about the other heroes fun fact: Frozone was supposed to fight the first robot and he would've died in the volcano

[@theunikronus7204]

You were correct at 5:38 there Nat, each member of the Incredibles family was given a power based on their familial role. The mom is seen as super flexible and able to shift to do whatever needs to be done at any time, The dad is seen as the strong macho man, the teenage daughter throws up barriers and goes invisible to hide herself from the world, and the younger brother whos always full of energy is super fast, and of course Jack Jack is the Jack of all trades

I never realized until now, but I love the detail that he's been basically machine learning this robot to deal with more and more significant heroes which is why it so easily dispatches of Syndrome since he has such a crutch compared to other heroes. It also means Mr. Incredible is one of the most powerful heroes in that city, at the very least, since so many iterations were used before just to work up to confidently being able to beat him
