The Incredibles
« on: November 05, 2004, 04:49:59 PM »
This is a ultra-cool movie.

It's just a lot of fun and it shows Pixar brancing out a bit.
Yes the animation style is still very Pixar-like but it shows hints of the Square-Soft style in some of the scenery and F/Xs. It's great fun.

It is violent in parts, like Tom and Jerry violent. There are some extra/red-shirt characters that die.

It also has many great lines.

Cool. I hope to see it this weekend.  Look for my review next week.

just saw it. Yay Incredibles! They were certainly unabashed about being thematically Fantastic Four. I was pleased.

Excellent. And judging by how fast shows are selling out here, I hope Pixar makes LOTS of money and will continue to make EXCELLENT movies.

ohmygosh.

Violet is voice-acted by Sarah Vowell ???

I'm sure I"m the only one who even cares, but she's a GREAT author.

I really like Edna and Elastigirl's voice acting as well.

Edna Mode was voiced by Brad Bird who is also the director. I found Edna to be hilariouos.

I've also had that Boundin' song in my head all evening.

Saw it with Karen tonight. Loved every minute of it. Some parts I just could not stop laughing. It was fantastic.
All Saiyuki fans should check out Dazzle! Emotionally wrenching action-adventure and quirky humor! (At least read chapter 6 and tell me if you're not hooked.) Volume 10 out now!

See the Anti-Rant thread in Rants. And I think he mentioned it somewhere else, saying he may not be on as much.

I saw it. My question was the same as EUOL's.  It's all answered now though.  Life is good.
