Why do you love or hate this movie??

Agreed SoA. I love Brad Bird.

I don’t really consider The Incredibles to be Pixar’s breakout film. I believe it was Monster’s Inc. It was really when people were getting tired of the Disney formula. So, I believe that 2001 was the real breakout year for Pixar as well as Dreamworks and Blue Sky.

Spirit_of_Adventure · October 10, 2011, 3:06am

Exactly.

Anyway, I don’t think TSS means it was Pixar’s breakthrough film, just a breakthrough one on its own accord.

Ballboi · October 10, 2011, 3:14am

Oh, I understand. Anyway, I like Brad Bird and I can’t wait to see how he handles his first live-action film.

Spirit_of_Adventure · October 10, 2011, 3:22am

Me too. I would hate if he gets bad reviews.

The_Star_Swordsman · October 10, 2011, 3:44am

Same here. But Brad has yet to disappoint me. So I have high hopes for him.

Spirit_of_Adventure · October 10, 2011, 3:48am

I know, but directing a live action film is a different thing and involves capacities we haven’t yet tested on Bird.

The_Star_Swordsman · October 10, 2011, 3:52am

Ah, good point.

Brad Bird is definitely my favorite Pixar Director.

Ballboi · October 10, 2011, 7:24pm

While Brad Bird is a great director, hes not my favorite director from Pixar. That would probably go to Pete Docter.

Spirit_of_Adventure · October 10, 2011, 7:29pm

I have a tie there. I just know it’s not John Lasseter.

Pricklepants · October 10, 2011, 9:00pm

I have a threeway tie there. And yest, it’s still not John Lasseter.

Another reason why I love this movie is because, as Brad Bird says, “It has everyone you would want in a movie… except popcorn. I think you’ll have to buy that.”

Spirit_of_Adventure · October 10, 2011, 10:35pm

Well, then it has everything I want in a movie, as I dislike pop corn.

The_Star_Swordsman · October 11, 2011, 12:00am

You don’t likw pop corn?

Spirit_of_Adventure · October 11, 2011, 12:02am

Nope.

But I’m getting far off topic here

The_Star_Swordsman · October 11, 2011, 3:00am

True. What other reasons why you guys love and/or hate this movie?

Ballboi · October 11, 2011, 3:08am

I liked some of the action scenes this film had. As a whole, this movie felt like Cars 2 as far as the action goes. Don’t know if a sequel would work since it would of been quite some time since the original film. I just hope Brad Bird could come up with a creative idea if he would direct it.

I love just about everything in this movie. My brother and I just watched it recently and we were cracking up all the way through. The animation is absolutely superb. And the character building and storytelling… this is one movie that everything just seems to fit together perfectly. The only down point is how they made Jack-Jack demon-like at the end… I didn’t mind it so much, but my mom really doesn’t like it. But hey, the whole rest of the movie is so great, it kinda outweighs that little bit at the end.

Spirit_of_Adventure · October 11, 2011, 11:52am

On my part, I loved Jack-Jack more than any other character, which is why Jack-Jack Attack is probably my favorite feature-based short film.
