Went to see The Incredibles last night. I think it’s probably one of the best and most adult oriented movies out of Pixar to date. Pixar’s other movies I think have all been targeted primarily towards kids, with a good dose of humour for us big kids too. The Incredibles to me feels like it’s targeted more towards an older audience, with plenty of humour for the big kids. There’s a good bit of superhero violence in the movie, so probably not the best movie for small kids.
As usual, the animation is excellent and I thought the movie was hilariously funny. I think if Frozone (voiced by Samuel L. Jackson) had played a bigger role in the film, he could have easily stolen a good part of the movie. One scene in particular will remind anyone who’s seen it of Pulp Fiction.
Definitely one to add to the DVD collection when it comes out.
I wasn’t as impressed with the short film, Boundin’ that came before the movie. The best one to me is still For The Birds.
Elastagirl’s quite the hottie in that stretchy red outfit.

Haysoos and I also saw the incredibles, and I must agree that it is the best pixar film yet. TONS of references to other superhero and sci-fi films. Did you notice the reference to the speeder bike scene from Return of the Jedi? When they were chasing the kid through the jungle? They even added in the speeder bike sounds, I almost fell out of my chair at that point.
I was a little miffed at them not showing the Star Wars trailer before the movie. I had read that it was supposed to be one of the previews. DAMN DAMN DAMN.
