What's you fav line from the movie? Should I watch Incredibles 2? What other animated movies should I check out?

The argument between frozone and his wife is literally a top 10 all time movie scene for me

The kids’ names are all references to their powers! Violet becomes Ultraviolet (outside of the visible color spectrum), Dash is fast, and Jack-Jack is a Jack of All

The plane scene is incredible because it actually implies Helen was at some point prior military. She uses correct Naval aviation terminology, and followed all the protocols for the situation she was in. She first started by giving her call sign India Gold Niner Niner or IG99 and requesting an approach vector. She made the tower aware of her presence and asked where she should go to set up for landing. When she got no response she asked again and nothing. When she hears the radar lock alarm and sees the missles she says "IG99 Transmiting in the blind guard, disengage I repeat disengage!" Transmiting in the blind means shes talking to the tower without establishing two way communications. She's telling the tower that she can't hear them, so if they've been giving her orders to turn around or that she was entering restricted airspace, she hasn't been receiving it. Normally this would mean they would stop firing and send an escort plane to escort the Helen away from the airspace or to a safe landing zone. After the second volley of missles she says "IG99 IS BUDDY SPIKED DISENGAGE!" which means "I am a friendly aircraft and I am receiving radar lock from friendly forces, DO NOT FIRE" Everything else she says is also accurate minus a slight mess up with her Mayday call (which I can excuse because she's got freaking missles flying at her)

Fun tidbit about the movie: they auditioned a good number of actors for the voice of Edna Mode. Each time, director Brad Bird would give the actor an idea of the kind of voice they wanted. However, none of the actors could do that voice in a way that satisfied them. Eventually they came to the conclusion that the only person who could do the voice they wanted was in fact the director, Brad Bird.

Love it that you picked up the Bond homage from the music so early. That's part of what makes you a great reactor.

"Is this a lair?!" 🤩 "I love a lair behind a waterfall!" 🥰 Your love of lairs fills me with joy, Incredi-Jen!

"Jack Jack doesn't have any powers." "No? Well, he'll look fabulous anyway." Edna is so iconic in this movie.

Love your appreciation for scores/composers! Michael Giacchino is definitely making a name quite quickly: Star Trek, Zootopia, Mission Impossible, Planet of the Apes, Spiderman, and Jurassic Park are some of his big ones.

The kid's names are all based on their powers: Dash is fast, Violet can go invisible / form force fields of light, and Jack-Jack is a 'jack-of-all-trades'

FUN FACTS: If you were wondering what Edna's accent is? It's supposed to be a mix of German and Japanese. And also, Edna is voiced by the director himself, Brad Bird! :)👍💖❤💖❤

Oh wow! What a great entry - right from the heart of Pixar's run of triumphs in the 2000's. Definitely should put "Wall-E," "Ratatouille," and "Up" on your list of animated features to watch.

Awesome as usual! Fav line: Dash's little laugh when he realizes he can run on water. Cracks me up every time! other Fav line: "Guys, you know I love when lairs are behind waterfalls!"😄😆 I also love your attention to the music in movies, even the little details like a muted trumpet for 2 seconds. As a musician I find it super refreshing for somebody to notice the little things. INCREDIBLE Jen!

Saw this film in the theater with my sisters and we cracked up laughing! This is one of the funniest superhero comedy movies ever made!

This movie is just soooooo good! Between "Honey! Where is my super suit?" To the little laugh Dash gives when he realizes he can run on water. Jak Jak vs. Syndrome! AND EVERY LINE UTTERED BY EDNA!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

A small detail I love that Pixar did is just how much dash and mr incredible’s jog and facial expressions match especially in the start of the race at the end he looks just like his dad and I love it

"I'm always beneath you, but nothing is beneath me!" One of the best movie quotes ever.

Back Draft is a fantastic movie and one of my favorites!

In my top10 favourite films. I’ve watched Incredibles about 7 times in the first 18 months it was originally released. When I first watched it, I never wanted it to end. Great script and soundtrack! Back when Pixar were at their peak

On the DVD there was an extra short called..."Jack, Jack, attack", which shows the baby sitter from the main feature and Jack, Jack. If you get the chance, please watch it, I know you'll love it. Pixar always seemed to put extra "shorts", on the DVDs worth a look if you can find them.. and yes, Incredibles 2 is great!

Great Reaction. I love the contrast between the interviews and their current situations: of course, Helen and Bob's reactions to being forced to settle down are the complete opposite to what they said in the interviews; Bob wants to return to his glory days, while Helen is content as a stay-at-home mom. But the best has to be Frozone; in the past, he's playing it cool, talking about not getting too attached to the "groupies staying free nad all that," but then he's not only married, but it's clear that his wife is the one who has the pants on in the relationship.🤣 Also, I think you would enjoy the short film "Jack-Jack Attacks," which is all about him unintentionally terrorizing his babysitter with his myriad of super powers.

Jen, it's INCONCEIVABLE that you would give your Worst Award to the boss and not Syndrome.😁The sequel is worth checking out as well. There is also a Pixar short with Jack-Jack and the babysitter. Two monster movies I'd recommend are Cloverfield and Pacific Rim.

I go back and forth between this and 1992’s Aladdin as my favorite animated films! Trivia: Edna is based on the best costume designer in Hollywood history, Edith Head 🎉

This film is as incredible as its characters! Before i vehemently propose you view the sequel, i would be a poor friend indeed, if i failed to suggest you first look at the 10-or-so minute short, "Jack Jack Attack", to fill in some of the story.

The early 1960s vibe is all over this movie, from Bond inspired criminal lairs, to clothing styles, architectural styles, to music, and even weaponry,; The guards who worked for Syndrome had M-3 sub-machine guns which were very much still in use in the early 1960s.

One of my favorite movies of all time! Not gonna lie I’ve seen this movie probably 50-60 times. I had it on repeat like it was a hit song.

Yes, watch Backdraft! It's great!

Before I saw this movie, I thought that no animated film could ever top Toy Story. Boy, was I wrong! This movie is fabulous! From the comedic quips to the tender moments, from the spy gadgets to the hysterical character tropes (Edna!), to a soundtrack that would make James Bond proud! I'm *so* glad you've seen it now, Jen-credible! 😆

Edna Mode was voiced by the Director Brad Bird. He did this voice in the offices when they were making the movie, and in the storyboard meetings, etc. and after looking at a bunch of voice actors they didn't really like any of them better than this voice that Bird did, so he had to act in his own movie.

Being a comic book geek for several decades, I really enjoyed this one when it came out. Great movie. The sequel isn't QUITE as good, but it's not bad by any stretch of the imagination. The Parrs are very similar to the Fantastic Four. Even their powers are nearly the same. As for who's the most powerful... Likely Jack-Jack... but of the others, I'd say Bob has the most raw power, Helen's right up there and her powers are very versatile... then I'd say Violet by a hair over Dash, but they're pretty close.

Now this is how you make a superheroes in the real world movie. It may be a comedy, but it's light years beyond the take themselves too seriously shows like Gotham and Batwoman.

As you loved this, you'll definitely love the sequel, and I would also highly recommend the animated film Monsters vs Aliens as well, which is cut from a similarly fun cloth! 🖒🖒

BTW, it’s not Invisigirl…thats pretty much what I’ve called her too all these years and I’ve watched this movie multiple times but your editor finally made me catch it by playing the words from one of the guards on the island. Her name is MISS DISAPPEAR. 👍

I always LOVE seeing people discover or rediscover this LEGENDARY film.

Sidebar what I really love about Jen is how in tune with the music she is. I’m kinda the same.

"You sly Dog! You got me monologuing!", My personal favorite quote from this movie

"Backdraft (1991)..." Oh YES, PLEASE. I don't believe I've ever seen anyone react to that one - these days, I think the soundtrack is remembered more than the film which is sad because its a really good Ron Howard film.

The insurance boss probably did a lot more harm to people than Syndrome ever did

*Frozone freezes a guy* -"that's cool" arnold schwarzenegger likes this

I can’t believe I missed watching this reaction. Loved it Jen and Ms Jentastic or ElastiJen would be a perfect superhero name for you.

By far, my most favorurite superheroes of all time! And I agree Jen, the music here is amazing. and btw, I vote yes to Backdraft... I haven't watched that movie in years!

Backdraft is fantastic it's definitely worth a reaction.

The director of this movie, Brad Bird, is also the voice of Edna. He had a particular accent in mind for her, and nobody besides him could do it.

The Incredibles are basically The Fantastic Four - The Thing (super strong and indestructible), Mr. Fantastic (stretchy), Invisible Girl (invisibility and force fields) and the Human Torch (fire powers/flight). The Incredibles just replaced the Human Torch with Dash. The Incredibles came out in November 2004 while Fantastic Four came out in July 2005. So both movies were in production at the same time. Sadly, The Incredibles was a much better Fantastic Four movie than Fantastic Four was. Unlike most other superhero groups, the Fantastic Four are fundamentally a family with superpowers, not a group of solo heroes banding together. Mr. Fantastic and The Thing are longtime friends (originally war buddies, later retconned into childhood friends), with Invisible Girl as Mr. Fantastic's wife and the Human Torch as her teenage brother. The Fantastic Four movies did a pretty poor job of selling the idea that their versions of the characters were a family. The Incredibles sold the family aspect much, much better.

❤ yes 😂😂😂

When a villains lair shows up in any movie you know it’s getting a fantastic review by Jen! So awesome! Lol hilarious 😂

I was today years old when I realized that Elastigirl and Violet are MrFantastic and Sue Storm, and Father is The Thing

My friend and I watched this about 6 times when it first came out. It is SO good. Covers so many life themes and is so well written, exciting, funny, it just has it all. My favourite Pixar film.

Hey Jen, "The Incredibles" is such an awesome movie as well as the sequel which came out 14 years later! The music in this film definitely deserves the MVP title. It has that James Bond spy feel to it. Jack-Jack is a polymorph with the ability to transform and shapeshift himself willfully. He currently has 17 known superpowers and will continue to exert new abilities as he grows older. "Backdraft" is a must-see film and no other reactor has reviewed it yet. To watch great monster movies, I highly recommend that you review and begin with the "Monsterverse" series: "Godzilla" (2014), "Kong: Skull Island" (2017 - an absolute must-see!), "Godzilla: King of the Monsters" (2019), and "Godzilla vs. Kong" (2021 - another must-see!) You will flip out on the series! As far as animation goes, there are NUMEROUS ones I'd love to list but just off the top of my head, I highly recommend the following: "Who Framed Roger Rabbit" (1988); "Akira" (1988); "Happy Feet" (2006) & sequel (2011); the "Despicable Me" series (2010-2022); the "Kung Fu Panda" trilogy (2008-2016); the "Toy Story" series (1995-2019); the "Shrek" quadrilogy; "Megamind" (2010); "Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse" (2018); "Up!" (2009); "Inside Out" (2015); "The Lego Movie" (2014); "Coco" (2017); the " How to Train Your Dragon" series (2010-2019); "Zootopia" (2016); "Coraline" (2009); "Wreck-it-Ralph" (2012) & the sequel (2018); "Storks" (2016); "Kubo and the Two Strings" (2016); "The Boss Baby" (2017) & sequel (2021); the "Wallace & Gromit" series (1989-2008); "Shaun the Sheep Movie" (2015) & sequel ("Farmageddon" - 2019); "Peter Rabbit" 2018 & sequel (2021). 📽❤️

watching this when I get home from work🤝

An under appreciated animated gem worth promoting Wolfwalkers It earned an Oscar nomination and deserved a win.

Mrs. Incredible has been a crush for a lot of people over the years, lol.

12:42 *Jen:* _"It's got a little James Bond feel to it."_ 🎼♪♬ You can say that again! Easily one of the best _'60's spy jazz'_ scores! 3:35 *Jen:* _"This kid's not going to blow up! That's not going to happen in an animated movie, right?"_ (q.v, 29:54) 🤭 30:45 *IncrediJen:* _"Alright, Michael Giaccino I love your music. . .I know that name…"_ 🎶 Yes you do! You definitely made note of the music for _STAR TREK_ (2009), and that was him as well. Looking forward to *_"Backdraft"_* Haven't seen it since it came out, but if I recall, Ron Howard really made a name for himself as a director with that one. As for monster movies… *_'Cloverfield'_* (2008), fo sho! Also, gotta see *King Kong!* I'd say 1933 version, and maybe hit up 2005 version down the road. 🤷🏼‍♂️ As always, such a fun reaction! Never change! 😁 _Be well!_ 🙋🏼‍♂️

Rango (2011) surely is a unique one

(About the music) "It's got a little James Bond feel to it." There are a LOT of Bond references in this movie. They actually wanted to hire John Barry, who did the music for the Bond film, "On Her Majesty's Secret Service" (1969) to do the soundtrack, but when he declined they hired Michael Giacchino and said, "write something Barry-esque." He pretty much nailed it. Everything sounds like Barry except for one track (during Mr. Incredible's training montage), which has more of a Nelson Riddle influence.

Super Thanks Incredi-Jen! You get multiple A+'s for this one! There is a Incred 2!

Made a crummy Monday better, thanks Jen!

The way you kept imitating her, I was sure MVP was going to Edna. She's definitely my favorite character of the movie.

The Insurance Boss is voiced by Wallace Shawn, who played Vizzini ("Inconceivable!") from "The Princess Bride."

JACK JACK ATTACKS! You need to watch the short Jack Jack Attacks to see what the baby was doing while they were on the island!

Backdraft? Yes please.

👍

I am a total sucker for Pixar movies, but this movie is by far my favorite. Not only the Bond music, but the late 50s graphics for the credits is so remeniscent of DePatie-Freleng. They just got EVERYTHING right in this one! Great reaction!

3:34 "Is he going to blow up?" 29:55 ... Yep!

Nah, JenCredible

It'd be great to see you react to the War of the Worlds

I caught a double for Tomb Raider: Cradle of Life and the Incredibles. One of the greatest days of 2004.

My first exposure to the music of Michael Giacchino was in videogames. He has composed some of the most epic videogame soundtracks ever created. My personal favorites are the scores that he created for the Medal of Honor series.

Wow... just made me realize 'The Incredibles' is nearing 20 years old. Still feels like yesterday I was in the cinema in my late teens watching 'Toy Story'. Hadnt noticed it before all the times ive seen it but watching this reaction, I actually felt The Incredibles was beginning to show its age, still one of Pixars best however.

The scene where Frozone is held at gunpoint by the cop is a direct reference to a similar scene in Die Hard With A Vengeance, where Samuel L. Jackson's character was held at gunpoint by a cop.

Hello Jen, I love watching you find so much joy in films and television you have not seen before. Given your delight in both the Bond and Bourne movies, and heist movies in general, I think you might find similar delight in the "Alias" television series that ran from 2001 for five years. If you have not seen Alias it was praised by critics and viewers alike and won numerous awards. If you have already seen Alias, you might consider instead "Burn Notice", or "Covert Affairs" both of which are excellent shows. Thank you again for sharing your joy in these movies and shows.

I love that you mentioned the muted trumpet and the MVPd the music! 100% agree!!!

The Incredibles is a significant movie to the people of my hometown, it was the last movie ever played at our now defunct cinema.

So glad you had fun, Incredi-Jen!

I LOVE THAT YOU DID THIS MOVIE! . This is my favorite Pixar movie. Definite purposeful James Bond vibes. Gotta do Incredibles II also. You also need to do the Monsters, Inc movies, Toy Story movies, and Wall-E. Giant monster movies please do Cloverdale, King Kong (2005, 1976, 1933), King Kong Lives, Godzilla vs King Kong (2021) and Pacific Rim! Loving your reactions and great graphics in the editing. Maybe before your time but comic book “Bam!” “POW” “ZAP!” Like the 60’s Batman tv show would have fit perfectly. 60’s Batman tv series would be great reacting also!!? Love you Jen

Much respect to the editor for the entertaining inserts!!

Great reaction "Incred Jen "this is a perfect Superhero family film and lots of nods to the Bond films I knew you'd love this.

This is one of my all time favorite movie score. It's a masterpice!!

"What other animated movies should I check out?" If you've never watch Toy Story, you should start there. IMHO, that's the one that destroyed the stereotype that animated films were "kid's movies." Toy Story 2 is also brilliant, while the subsequent sequels are good but not quite at the same level.

I think I enjoyed this movie more this time with Jen reacting to it, she is so animated. Great job Jen. There are a lot of animated movies that are just to cool, (all the Shrek movies, Walle, the Toy Story movies, A Bugs Life, Ants, etc)

Incredi-Jen? Why not Jen-credible? Bomb Voyage is a great villain name. It was supposed to be Bomb Perignon, but Dom Perignon put a stop to that, so Brad Bird had to be creative. Speaking of Brad Bird, he was the voice of Edna; he was trying to show Lily Tomlin (the intended voice actor for Edna) how to do the voice, but Lily thought that Brad would be way better at it, so... there you go. The two old men on the bench -- "That's old school." -- were two of Walt Disney's original animators Frank Thomas and Ollie Johnston. Giacchino did the score for the series Lost, and he's worked on a LOT of Pixar movies, but this was his first one.

"That was totally wicked!" Great reaction, Jen! The Incredibles is one of my faves. Pixar's storytelling is unmatched, in my opinion. Although I haven't seen any of their more recent films, you can't really go wrong choosing any Pixar film, including all of their shorts also!

Fav line: "I can't lose you again! I'm not... strong enough." Chokes me up every time. Definitely watch Incredibles 2. Also Wall-E and Iron Giant.

My college-age granddaughter is an artist and for Christmas she made a comic book for my wife and I as superheroes. My wife's super power is she makes bowls of treats that overwhelm villains, Mine is that I can recite historical trivia that bores bad guys to death, which I conclude with Isn't that Interesting. I am Interesting Man and my wife is Bowls Girl.

Other Animated movies you should see; 0 (blows the rest out of the water) Chicken Run (enhanced by having seen The Great Escape first... but not required) 1. Wall-E 2. Shrek 3. Who Framed Roger Rabbit? 4. Wall-E 5. Heavy Metal (My personal favorite, and never been "reacted" to that I'm aware of!) 6. Wall-E 7. Basically do a "Sister Reaction Double Feature of Chicken Run and Wall-E... then anything else you're particularly feelin'.

I was sitting through a video assembly in high school early 90s, a few hundred in the auditorium. They used to produce good message guidance films that would be promoting whatever messages and there would be pop culture clips thrown in there. They were pretty entertaining. During one of them, a quick 10 sec slow mo clip played of Kurt Russell in Backdraft coming out of a fire carrying a 6yo. The whole auditorium erupted. Backdraft was huge.

Ms jentastic as a superhero name 🔥 have to again recommend how to train your dragon the music will blow your socks off it's right up your alley a true masterpiece ( you can thank me after) 😅 brave , wreck it Ralph and big hero 6 all movies you will love ✨ this was a lot of fun jen and you had the best time , its such a fun take on superhero movies 👌and ofc it had your favourite things secret lair , explosions all the fun things 🙂 cheers jen this was great

Omg I loved watching you enjoy The Incredibles. I also was so pumped about the music when I saw it and it hits all the good feels!

Wallace Shawn is memorable as the vile, obnoxious insurance boss, with a personality similar to the one he played in "The Princess Bride."

Michael Giachino did the music for Up & Inside Out. He also did the music for Rogue One.

Great reaction Jen. You have to see Incredibles too before that you have to see it is a short film called Jack Jack attack. It’s about what happened to Jack. Jack with the babysitter shows all his powers it’s so adorable. It’s on Disney+ and also the extras of the DVD/Blu-ray of the Incredibles so anyway you can see it but Jeff jack attack, it’s called. It’s a short film. It’s a Pixar short film. It’s excellent. The phone call when she says don’t worry Mrs. I’ve got it all handled. I can handle it. I’ve had classes his baby then but then he starts to do super things the babysitter freaks out that’s how syndrome gets Jack Jack freaks out thanks for the fun until next time, Incredibles two is a must must that’s all for now

Once again, loved your reaction. I think you missed your chance on the video thumbnail. Should have used you holding your hand out to stop the train, lol. Yes, watch Incredibles 2. Just as fun. Excellent mimic of Edna's accent too. Thanks, Jen.

Great reaction, as always!You should definitely see the short which details the experience of the babysitter...

And the sequel starts RIGHT when the original ends. It’s awesome.

Definitely watch the sequel. Also look up Jack Jack Attack in the meantime - a short about what happened with the babysitter as she found out about his powers. More animation sounds like a good idea. The music in this is awesome, and it does have a LOT of Bond flavor. Did you notice the parallels between Syndrome's island and Blofeld's in You Only Live Twice? The volcano, launching rockets from there, the little egg-pod monorail. This movie is just sooo good, and it was fun to watch you soak it all in. Great reaction!

Michaels music is incredible. From LOST to Star Trek and Rouge One.

I loved watching the making of featurette for this movie. One of my favorite animated movies.

5:18 "What is insurance for if you can't use it when you need it?" THANK YOU!

Other animated films I'd recommend (beyond Inside Out, which you've seen) are: - Monsters, Inc. (2001) - Finding Nemo (2003) - WALL-E (2008)

The Incredibles was one of the early Pixar movies, and all the ones prior to it had been hits. One thing that stood out was that John Ratzenburger had voiced a character in each movie. He was kind of a good luck charm for Pixar. Not wanting to spoil anything, he was given the role of the Underminer at the end of the movie.
