The Incredibles: Difference between revisions

Line 72:

* [[Brought to You by The Letter "S"|Brought To You By The Letter I]]: [[Lampshade Hanging|Lampshaded]] during the "Jack-Jack Attack!" short, when Syndrome shows up at the Parr's residence.

* [[Callousness Towards Emergency]]: "Let's hope we don't cover him!" Real classy, Mr. Huph.

* [[The Cameo]]: A particularly awesome one for anyone who is into animation history. Those two old men who praise the heroes after the climax ("That's the way to do it" - "No school like the old school") are ''Frank Thomas and Ollie Johnston''...Not ringing a bell? They were the last surviving two of Disney's "[[wikipedia:Nine Old Men|Nine Old Men]]", legendary animators who had been in the business practically since the beginning. For example, they were both animators on [[Snow White (Disney film)|Snow White and The Seven Dwarfs]], and were involved in practically every animated Disney project up to [[The Fox and the Hound]]. (Sadly, Thomas didn't live to see ''The Incredibles'' finished, and Johnston died in 2008.)

Line 400:

** Elastigirl finds out her husband has been keeping secrets from her, doing hero-work behind her back, and follows him into enemy territory, determined to find him no matter what the obstacles or dangers involved, requiring her to stealthily sneak among troops of [[Mooks]] like a [[Ninja]] -- exactly what Marguerite Blakeney does in the [[Superhero]] [[Trope Codifier]] ''[[The Scarlet Pimpernel (novel)|The Scarlet Pimpernel]]''. <ref>Marguerite and Elastigirl also both have a daughter named Violet.</ref>

** The ship that Syndrome's robot flies into the city in (and, to an extent, the robot itself) is modeled on Dr. Zin's "The Robot Spy" on ''[[Jonny Quest]]''.

** Also, Dash channels [[Punch Out|Little Mac]] in a fistfight with one of the goons on their speeder.
