Haha, I completely agree! Poor guy!
As long as the story and characters are genuine, who really cares what type of thing or
animal the main characters are?
The Incredibles, in my humble opinion, is the most flawless movie ever
created in the history of cinema. Look at the character design. And how proportions are not believable but the
movement is. Look at the character development. And how the characters each go through a transformation and carry
out the plot. Look at the action, story, music, and everything in between.
Funny, that the first Pixar
film with humans as the main characters also happens to have the best developed characters.
I agree to everything you just said.
Emmmm, Jamie Lew, you foget Geri’s Game, that looked just as realistic as The
Incredibles in some cases.
I doubt that. In the Incredibles, the humans are paid
absolute attention to. I’m not sure about Geri’s game.
Well, I just meant, the way he was
making out, it was if they couldn’t do humans at all then.
Correct. Helen, like most moms, is very flexible. She has to take care of the house,
the kids, and practically do Super Hero work. Like most teenagers, Violet is very shy and defensive. That is why
she has invisibility and force fields. Dash is an energy ball. And many little boys have so much energy in them,
they are so fast and hyper. That is why Dash has Super speed. Jack-Jack is only a baby and you don’t know what
babies are going to be until the future. That is why Brad brilliantly displayed his powers in the end.
I can’t tell you HOW
much I agree. That’s why I hate to hear people mercilessly bash a (good) animated film just because they don’t
like a certain character, or something. The animaters at Pixar (and Dreamworks) put a great deal of hard work
into their films, and I appriciate them for that!
I’ve seen a great deal of new 3D animated films that seem
to only do it to hop and the band wagon… I honestly don’t know what annoys me more, bashing studios that
animate for the pure joy of it (that’s what it’s all about folks!) just because you hate one little thing, or
compeating studios that animate for money (and wind up making a second “Lion King” but with rubber
cows…)
Forgive the double post 
I agree! Does anyone else belive their
appearances reflect their personalities as well? Bob’s a big burly man, with a strong face-any-challenge
personality, Helen’s lovely but conservative as most moms are, Violet’s hair covered her face in the begining
but, as she gained confidence she started pulling it back, Dash looks very much like anyone’s little brother 
,
Syndrome’s wild looking… you get the idea
The guys at Pixar believed in caricacure. They
wanted the distinguishing features to stand out to not only idenify the character, but their personalities as
well. So you are right Ectoplasmicblobbything.
I like the Incredibles okay, but compared to
other Pixar movies i’m really into it that much. I dont know why. I dont think it’s because humans were the
main characters. It is a good movie, but for me it’s not as good as, say, Cars or Nemo or Monsters Inc.
People,
Pixar doesn’t care about the realism of the humans. The story is the most improtant component right?
Yep, ‘Story is key’. And
The Incredibles has a very interesting storyline, but I still prefer the concept of other Pixar films more.
I can understand you Lixardgirl. Still, The Incredibles
will be number one on my all-time-favorite list.
I thought I
was the only 1 who didn’t really fond of Pixar animated humans…I still like the film none other the less
I wonder why people care about the realism about the
humans. Brad Bird said it from the begining. He just wanted the human characters stylized, but also believable.
He did not say anything about realism.
Actually, your the ones caring about the realisticness, I think they look really realistic without being scarily
real.
lizardgirl, lennonluvr and marty17 are all entitled to hold the same opinion as me.
Actually, whilst watching ‘Top 100 Animations’, Brad Bird talked about this. He
said something along the lines of, 'Bob’s the man of the family, he has to be strong for the others, kids like
Dash are hyperactive, teenagers like Violet have no confidence and are always trying to disappear, and mothers
like Helen are being forced to stretch around everyone else’. So yep, you’ve got it right!
That was really smart of them to have these references in the characters.
I’ve heard that like ages ago…(must be the DVD extra)
