[@mr.stoneface7699]

I'm a little surprised Doug didn't mention one very particular instant in the "Dash and Violet run from mooks" sequence: When Dash realizes he can run on water, he giggles a little, then goes faster. A lesser film might've had him say "I can run on water? That's awesome!" Nope, just the giggle of a little boy realizing he was right, he CAN do something extraordinary and cool.

[@theplaguegamer6216]

Here's a fact that everyone knows , but yet seems to forget, Frozone was actually the next target, Mirage switched to Mr. Incredible, and if you noticed the robot was most likely progammed to Frozone, as a volcano would nullify his powers, making him an easy target.

[@zacharybartolo5111]

The first one I knew, it's funny how they accidentally found the number one super that Syndrome was most likely looking for. But the second I didn't put together till your comment. I just figured it was just an "evil villain" setting, but yeah it makes sense if they set everything up for Frozone first.

[@ryudragonuv]

13:31 - You TOTALLY missed the subtle storytelling in the flashback. When Buddy was talking with Mr Incredible in the opening, Bomb-voyage was there, but in Buddy's flashback he wasn't. many first chalked it up as a continuity error, but when you think about how much Buddy was fanboying over Mr Incredible, it makes sense he never saw the danger there. That'd be line someone fanboying SO much over Batman, wanting to be the next Robin, that they don't see the danger with Batman fighting a villain at that moment. Also, 22:45 - As great as that line is, the way he says the next one was even funnier! He like.. goes 'country-tone' for that "All too good!"

[@aspieringnerd9073]

Buddy's country twang is the best bit to quote!

[@filipvadas7602]

It adds to the idea that Buddy/Syndrome is an unreliable narrator and that his view of what happened that day was horribly skewed

[@tomnorton4277]

Forgetting a vital detail of the scenario he was in when Bob rejected him adds a brilliant bit of nuance to Syndrome's psychology. To quote the Joker "Memory's so treacherous." Another detail is that I don't think Buddy ever realised that Bomb Voyage had thrown a bomb onto his cape. I don't think that part was even a false memory for the adult Syndrome. Buddy just literally never noticed the bomb, even when Bob yelled at him and was literally hanging from his cape to save him from it. In Buddy's mind, Bob was trying to hold him back.

[@ryansalter2325]

He got it all wrong about Helen originally dying. It was her pilot friend from the past, Snug, that died while flying her and the kids to the island. He wasn't completely cut out of the movie, though, since you can hear his voice over the phone and see a picture of him on Helen's counter.

[@geoffreyrichards6079]

Oh. I thought he was referring to an even earlier draft of the film were her death was considered.

[@MrMnM-ed5ht]

You mean Snug? Yeah he was gonna be more than just a picture in a frame and a voice on the phone. He was actually gonna be flying the plane and when Helen was forced to chose who to save, she leapt towards her kids with her old friend being blown up with the plane and sinking into the sea. They never animated it but they did storyboard the whole thing, making the scene all the more dark.😨

[@robertlauncher]

@@MrMnM-ed5htHe was even the one screaming “ABORT! ABORT!” in the storyboard version.

[@zjzr08]

Snug was always a mystery to me because he wasn't exactly shown and I wonder if he's like Helen's ex-boyfriend or something (a part of me even thought if they have an affair, and that was when I was like a kid, hehe)...him supposedly being a minor character that is sacrificed now makes a lot sense why he was mentioned but wasn't added in IMO.

[@haywardsebastian3713]

Indeed.

[@koneheadcokehead4981]

Another Fun Fact: Samuel L. Jackson was cast as the voice of Frozone because Brad Bird wanted the character to have the coolest voice.

[@kingsleycy3450]

I always like that Syndrome was so versed in superhero tropes, but wasn't self aware that he was a villain. It really plays into the fanboy mentality that strength is more important than the heroic

[@kdusel1991]

He's a great twist villain!

[@eternyti]

Its also a reflection of the quote by Tom Hiddleston, "Every villain is a hero in his own mind". Only the most cartoonishly evil and simple, straightforward villains might acknowledge or see themselves as such and revel in it. Most villains, even if they acknowledge their methods are morally objectionable, rationalize and justify such measures by "the ends justify the means" and that they are really doing a good thing, and anyone who gets in their way is the actual villain. Syndrome himself directly references this by calling himself a hero and wanting to portray himself as one, while seeing supers as the 'real' villains, for having powers and (in his mind) acting superior to those without, feeling slighted by their competency.

[@geoffreyrichards6079]

And in the end, he’s destroyed by one of the defining tropes of the superhero genre.

[@danielryanmulligan9381]

This only proves in my mind 100%(one hundred percent) that Brad Bird is a better filmmaker then the people who made the scream remake from 2022 in their attempt to portray toxic fandom; Brad Bird handled that issue/point much better!!!! And he only needed one(1) villain to do so instead of 2(two)!!!!!!! Dan aka….

[@mredbadger]

Yeah, Syndrome saw himself as a normal guy who got rejected for not being special, and superheroes as selfish narcissists who owe everything to the gifts they were born with But in reality, Syndrome had super intelligence that he could have used for good, but instead built a huge vanity project that killed and endangered loads of people. While Bob is able to grow past his ego and realise his recklessness, Syndrome just becomes the worst version of what he criticises but without the good intentions to back it up Tldr incredibles good

[@dangurney1042]

The kid on the tricycle was voiced by Brad Bird's son, Nicholas Bird who was also the voice of Squirt in Finding Nemo.

[@andydufresnefromshawshank5866]

I think this film holds up better as an adult than as a child. You see a lot more clever things. For example: Mirage was originally looking for Frozone. What do I mean, the Omni droid lead Mr. Incredible towards the volcano so that “Frozone” wouldn’t use his powers against the droid. The droid was programmed to fight against Frozone. If you remember that the fire was started by Mirage and/or assistances. Then after the fire, Mirage is surprised to see Mr. Incredible

[@dr.cliche7560]

That's a good point. I hadn't considered that before.

[@Lloyd00]

I really like your points however we're not shown Mirage being the cause of the fire, yes its a logical conclusion since they were tracking him but who's to say a potential disaster set up was even necessary (it wasn't for Bob). My bigger issue is how exactly they found out Frozones identity. Outside of his monolog story (which doesn't necessarily have to be recent) it seems like he only fights crime with Bob. I suppose evidence of frozone is way easier to see. But I don't think just seeing some ice would be enough for them to launch an operation. They had to be keeping tabs on him especially to know he goes out on Wednesday nights. (Thank you for making put way more thought into a 20 year old kids movie)

@@alim.9801 that’s why the movie is so good, it doesn’t shove what it’s trying to do in your face.

That’s why she over exaggerates saying “I Love You, So So Much!” When he leaves. Which I never picked up as a kid.

[@KujaroJotu]

Fun Fact: You can tell the first Omnidroid Mr. Incredible fought was meant for Frozone because of where it lead the fight to: a volcano. Frozone’s powers are dependent on moisture, so it’s likely that he would exhaust his powers in a superheated environment like a volcano, making it all the easier to take him out. Bob indirectly saved Lucious’ life.

[@koneheadcokehead4981]

Another Fun Fact: Helen's use of radio protocol while flying is exceptionally accurate for a movie. In the director's commentary, Brad Bird tells that Holly Hunter insisted on learning the lingo and its meaning. The terminology used hints that Elastigirl has had military flight training. "VFR on top" means she is flying in the regime of Visual Flight Rules "on top" of a cloud cover. She requests "vectors to the initial", directions how to get to the initial landing approach. "Angels 10" is her altitude call, ten thousand feet, this is a military term. Civilian flights use the term "flight level". "Track east" is her direction of travel. "Buddy spike(d)" is a U.S. Military brevity code meaning "friendly anti-aircraft radar has locked on to me, (please don't shoot)." "Transmitting in the Blind Guard" is a call on the emergency frequency where two-way communication has not been established. "Abort" is also a military brevity code, a directive meaning "stop the action/mission/attack." It should be noted that the term "angels", while popular for the first half of the twentieth century, is outdated. As the "present day" story takes place in 1962 and having flight experience clearly took place in the fifties, this is an appropriate term.

[@JTNAnimator]

So for those who don’t know, the two Old Guys who appear in both the Iron Giant and the Incredibles are caricatures of two Disney animators, Frank Thomas and Ollie Johnston, who worked on many of Disney’s classic films. They were part of Disney’s “Nine Old Men”. Brad Bird mentored under the Nine Old Men (mostly with Milt Khal) when he apprenticed at Disney in the late 1970s. It’s a pretty cool story actually, he sent a film to Disney at the age of 14 which caught their attention and they brought him on as a an “unofficial trainee”, unheard of at the time. It was a period of time where a lot of Disney’s top people were approaching retirement age and they were thinking about how to train younger animators to take over. After attending CalArts several years later (his classmates included future big names like Tim Burton , John Lasseter, and Henry Selick among others) he ended up working for Disney but left after a couple of years since his very outspoken nature clashed with the more conservative management at the time. And the rest is history! So yes, those two Old Guys aren’t just random characters, they’re animation legends! They had both sadly passed away by the time Incredibles 2 came along, so that’s why they didn’t make an appearance.

[@koneheadcokehead4981]

Another Fun Fact: Seen attending Bob and Helen's wedding are (left to right) Gazerbeam, Edna Marie "E" Mode, and government agent Rick Dicker sitting in the front row, as well as Dynaguy, Stratogal, Thunderhead, and Metaman in the pew behind them. The latter four have one thing in common: they're all seen later (for the last time) in flashbacks within Edna's "No Capes!" monologue. In the superhero database on the DVD, it says for those same heroes Edna mentioned, "Died in action, suit malfunction."

This is, for me, still the best Pixar film to date. It has a challenging, complex message, while still focusing far more on its characters than it does anything else. NC says that he wished that the film would have focused on the family more, yet praised the movie as having a believable and compelling family anyways. That tells me that we got just enough of them to sink the audience into this stylish retro-futuristic 50’s world. It feels like Bird took a lot of notes from Don Bluth movies, and gave us a movie whose dark moments are genuinely weighty while still keeping the movie light and fun as a whole. It’s phenomenal.

Decideded to listen to the DVD commentary for this one. According to Bird, the animation departments for the clothing and skin had to work together in order to do the five second shot of Bob putting his hand through the hole left by the droid. An animation breakthrough for all intents and purposes. Then, to prove they could do it again, the had Edna put her entire arm through the hole at her house. Also Bird mentioned how you don't really see two guys talking in a car in animated movies so put it in as something he always wanted to do.

Actually, it was "Snug" (Helen's pilot mentor) who Brad Bird wanted to kill off in the plane scene. He was supposed to fly the plane while Helen, Dash and Violet were hitching a ride.

The most underappreciated moment in the movie is Bob's reaction to hearing Helen, in utter desperation, radio in that "there are children on board".

I feel like there was a moment in the live action Supergirl series that was directly inspired by the famous "cape scene" you reference at 13:08 It was when they were doing a montage of costume designs for her and a capeless one caused her to take a turn too wide and crash into a truck, turns out the resistance caused by the cape made high speed cornering easier and revealed a practical reason for Superman's suit having it. To this day I'm certain that was made to DIRECTLY reference AND contradict Edna's "no capes" rule. I also love how they show Mirage is obviously attracted to Bob even though they never crossed that line into affair territory (which the deleted/alternate scenes on the DVD show WAS going to be a plot point.) Assuming she's about the same age as Syndrome she would have been a kid or young teen in Mr. Incredible's heyday, he was probably her first crush. 17:47 holy crap, I just realized the trap that caught Mr. Incredible is MINETA'S QUIRK! Mineta, the grape headed kid from My Hero Academia...I know Horikoshi was inspired by American comics when he made that series but did he watch THIS too?

There's actually a theory that Edna couldn't directly kill Syndrome but she knew he was evil. So when he had her make his suit, she put a cape on it in the hope it'd lead to him being killed

That’s a bit of a leap, assuming Edna made Syndrome’s suit, given that everything else he does is fairly self-sufficient; makes his own tech, grows his own food, he doesn’t strike me as the kind of guy to let someone else design his suit especially when getting the glory and recognition was the whole point

Another Fun Fact: When Frozone (Samuel L. Jackson) starts speed skating, his moves are modelled after Olympic gold medalist Shani Davis.

[@Luckyrabbit1927]

Something that took me years to realize was that there was a specific reason the first Omnidroid fight took place in a lava-filled area. Frozone was specified to have been the original target before they switched last minute to Bob. Had things gone according to plan, that would've likely ended up being his fight instead, and inevitably, his end given that his powers don't work well in heat-based areas.

My guess as to why Violet gets two powers is the same reason why everyone has the powers they do. Mr. Incredible is the archetypal strong, masculine father who needs to "be strong for his family." Elastigirl goes from being a superhero to a wife/mother of three and finally transitions to being all at once. She's "flexible." Dash wants to be special, dislikes school, and loves to run around. And real talk probably has ADHD and just can't sit still. Jack-Jack is a baby. His future isn't set in stone. He can be whatever he wants to be. Hence why he has a dozen different powers. Violet is a special case because she's the loner of the family, something I wish could have been expanded on more outside of that once scene at the high school. She's tries to stay out of the limelight, hence the invisibility, but also tries to push people away, shut them out, and be alone, hence the force fields. She's unsure of herself and can't embrace who she is until she finally starts using her abilities and connecting with her family.

[@InkyDustMan]

A note on the cape scene, as well as basically Edna's entire character- This isn't my theory, but in hindsight, it's pretty much dead on and actually adds a layer of depth to one of Pixar's most beloved characters that almost entirely plays a comedic role- Which is that Edna's moto of "I never look back" and the cape scene could potentially imply that she's very deeply traumatized because she likely designed ALL of those old cape costumes herself, and one of the heroes, Stratogale, was just a teenager when she died in the jet engine accident, roughly around 15-18 estimated by the community, pair this with the fact that we can see she attended Bob and Helen's wedding before she died, along with the OTHER THREE supers that died of cape malfunctions, Thunderhead, Dynaguy and Metaman, (Gazerbeam too actually) it's HEAVILY implied that not only would they probably know Edna, they all likely died VERY close together, if not in the same year as each other, implying that Edna's entire rant about "NO CAPES!" and "I never look back" MIGHT actually be some very well disguised trauma that she could be blaming herself for the deaths of her friends- As if it weren't for the capes, and the fact that almost all the outfits she makes are near indestructible, they might've lived- The person I remember hearing this theory from pointed all this out, if I could remember them, I'd give them credit- But it's a VERY dark set of details that are too closely related to be one giant coincidence, obviously Pixar or the higher ups didn't want to include something THAT dark, but it does add a little extra depth to these one off characters and Edna herself when you imagine Edna attending their funerals and having a breakdown when no one is watching while repeating "No capes! No capes!! No capes!!!...." ...so yeah, a FAMILY picture.

Helen was never going to die in the plane crash.
