Rate "The Incredibles"

[WizarDru]

Correct. In the case of Bug's Life, they had a second cut with different bloopers, as well. Finding Nemo didn't have any, as Welverin pointed out.

What I'd really like? For the DVD releases to have a new Incredibles short, like Monsters, Inc. had "Mikey's New Car." That would be awesome.

 

[Desdichado]

Nope, there definitely weren't any for Finding Nemo, and they stop doing it because it was over done and they wanted to try something new, which is why Finding Nemo had fish swimming around the credits and The Incredibles has the stylized recreation of scenes in the movie. Even with all that it was something they added in later and wasn't in for the first few weeks of the movies run anyway.

Ah, you're right. Although I'm pretty sure I saw Finding Nemo in the first week, and I saw the fish swimming around.

Incredible.

Rocked my socks clean off. Into another state. My 6 year old son's socks where also blasted into orbit. My wife almost laughed more at his/my reflected antics than at the movie (things like the both of us, at the same time, going "oh, that is SO COOL!", or just turning to look at each other with those wide-eyed, mouth-making-a-little-"o" looks of wonder)

The Incredibles reminded me of the things that I've always loved the most out of the superhero/super-spy genre's, while still feeling fresh as it supplied quite a few "homages" to them.

Quite simply, they took everything I've ever loved about comics... conflict, personalization/humanization of 'hero' archtypes, self-deprecation, snappy dialogue, cool effects, great gadgets, truly Evil bad guys, you name it; then they did almost every one of these things near-perfectly. The shots that they took at the genre itself only served to reinforce the storyline and the characters. Never, ever will *my* supers wear a cape again.

Plus, it had Samuel Jackson in it, and that ain't never a bad thing

I actually felt a little old-school comics-love renaissance stirring in my jaded heart after the movie. I'm wanting to do a 1960's traditional supers game so bad now it makes my teeth hurt, and I'm duly inspired to get more work done on my supers story hour.

Pixar has hit another one right out of the park, and even being a big fan of their other work, I believe this one will be a favorite of mine (and my son's) for quite some time.

There is the obvious one; The whole family was a Fantastic Four Homage. (Strong/Tough hero, streachy hero, invisible hero w/force fields). They just replaced the fire guy with a speedster.

Actually the fire guy was included. The baby burst into flame at the end of the movie, followed by some other cool stuff, but still flames were included.

I gave this a 10 as well. I haven't seen such a good animated movie in a long time. If I wasn't so broke I would go see it again.
I liked the mini animated film at the beginning. What other movie did that? It is at the tip of my tongue but alas, I can't remember. I think it adds a little to the whole movie experience.

A 10, nothing less. I never knew that a movie could capture me and my wife so well on screen (me being Mr Incredible stuck in a lame desk job and my wife as ElasticGirl). A great film, a must have for DVD.

Great movie. As somebody already mentioned in this thread, this is probably the best movie I have seen all year. Can't wait to see it again.

 

[Welverin]

Ah, you're right. Although I'm pretty sure I saw Finding Nemo in the first week, and I saw the fish swimming around.

You did, I was referring specifically to the movies with outtakes with that comment.

Since I can't find an explanation in this thread about it, I'm assuming the person who gave this movie a '1' was joking? Or maybe thinking '1' was the highest score? Right?

You're probably thinking of Who Framed Roger Rabbit.

We saw The Incredibles today, and loved it. what a great flick; I can't wait to see it again.

I think it was Buddy.
