I don't care what anyone tries to tell me, the super suit scene is the funniest scene in any Pixar movie ever.

I love how their superpowers tie in with their personalities. Bob has super strength, as he's trying to support his entire family. Helen has elastic arms, and is stretching herself in various directions, Violet has invisibility, and is insecure Dash has speed, since he's an energetic kid, and Jack Jack has numerous abilities, being a baby, or "Jack of All Trades."

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.

It's crazy how Pixar has done a way better job at a Fantastic 4 film than 3 different movies did.

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.

Bob - "it's psychotic, they keep creating new ways to celebrate mediocrity" it's amazing how that line can be applied to so much that's happened over the years

Edna Mode’s “No Capes” speech is one of the best parts of this movie!

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

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

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.

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.

The scene "Kronos Unveiled " is a great movie moment from the Incredibles. From the silent storytelling, foreshadowing, and amazing musical score it's one of the most amazing scenes from a Pixar movie

Underrated joke: the robot fixing his back turning the tide of the fight

Fun fact the producers actually had the voice actor of dash run around to make it sound like he was running super fast

17:29 What's even scarier is that Lucius was going to be the next victim, but when he was spotted with Bon, Syndrome changed the plan.

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.

Another Fun Fact: When Mr. Incredible (Craig T. Nelson) is called into Mr. Huph's (Wallace Shawn's) office, at one point Mr. Huph places his hand on a piece of paper. Judging from Mr. Incredible's expression, it seems like this paper is a termination notice. Actually, it is a memo to all employees, letting them know they will be responsible for buying all of their office supplies. It also states that parking will be metered by the hour, and that their electricity usage will be deducted from their paychecks. The letter concludes by saying that Insuricare has "recorded its highest profits in years."

Shrug of God (from TV Tropes): - No one who worked on The Incredibles (not even Brad Bird) knows why the Pizza Planet truck gag wasn't included in the film. - When talking about the comics, Mark Waid said that Syndrome might have survived the movie but refused to give a definite answer. - Brad doesn't know how The Incredibles got their powers, as he hopes to never explain them.

Fun Fact: Jason Lee (Buddy/Syndrome) recorded his lines in four days, while Craig T. Nelson (Bob Parr/Mr. Incredible) recorded his lines over the span of two years.
