Just watched this. Why didn't Yea Forums seem to like this when it came out? There were definitely some flaws but overall I thought it had an interesting plot. Villain had a unique motivation, too.
Just watched this. Why didn't Yea Forums seem to like this when it came out...
I liked it too, Yea Forums's complaints are mostly towards the twist villain's motives.
Eh....it was too "Saturday Morningish" for my tastes. It felt like an extended TV Special rather than an actual movie, which wasn't something I felt when watching the first one.
I've had that feeling for most Pixar Sequels honestly.
Thst's the biggest image you could find? Really?
Give it a month and you'll realize just how mediocre it was.
It was the only one I could find of that promo image with the actual "Incredibles 2" label. Here's a better one, just for you.
Several characters not only did things that made no sense, but had entire motivations designed only to move the plot along.
The newer heroes look out of place in the artstyle.
It was painfully unambitious.
It took nearly 15 years just to end up with something that doesn't even touch the original.
I was talking to my sister about this the other day. The original movie had the scene where the kids and Helen are sitting around the fire and and she tells them that the villains will kill the kids if they get the chance. The sequel never felt that real or grounded. The kids weren't learning their powers like they were in the first one, Helen drops her "mom is an important job," to go relive her glory days and unlike bob doesn't learn that her family is more important. It wasn't bad, but when you compare it to the original, it was a pale shadow.
This. It didnt feel all that special or as "epic" in terms of scale. Probably would've been better received if we didnt wait 10+ years for it
I enjoyed it quite a lot. However, it was in some ways a rehash of the first movie. Even now I'm a little disappointed there wasn't a timeskip.
A borefest compared to the original
Post Gurihiru Vi
Or any Vi. Vi a best and I love her and want to get my GF to cosplay her
Not Gurihiru, but how's this.
1/2
Fucking adorable.
>Why didn't Yea Forums seem to like this when it came out?
BECAUSE IT FUCKING SUCKS!
It was a pointless sequel
It seems like Pixar has been declining since cars 2
>Several characters not only did things that made no sense, but had entire motivations designed only to move the plot along.
Can you give some examples? I can see where you're coming from on the other points, though. What could they have done that would've been ambitious? A timeskip may have been boring and could've taken away from the unique 50's style the film had going for it.
>It was a pointless sequel
Shame, because The Incredibles had potential for AMAZING sequels.
Why are Violets eyes so sunken in?It looks creepy.
Isn't really a twist villian if they name her evil endeavor.
Just seemed pointless. The villain had way too much in common with Syndrome but was far less interesting. All and all it just felt smaller than the original movie. Both in what it accomplished with world building, and in the actual conflict.
Did she look like that in the original? I don't remember that. She looks emaciated.
original had dulled colours.
>Villain had a unique motivation
Unique... kinda
Stupid... Definitely
It was good, but not we-waited-14-years-until-we-had-a-story-worth-telling good. If felt like a movie that should have come out 2 years after the original because the execs insisted on a sequel.
Just fucking boring.
Shit villain, shit plot.
The villain was shitty, but not as shit as the hero. The first movie is great because Bob is essentially going through a super powered mid-life crisis.
Yes he's "Mr. Incredible", but we see a selfish side to his selflessness. He wants to play the hero, no matter how many times he has to uproot his family, change jobs, risk his life, or lie to his wife. He likes the glamor and prestige, obsessed with his literal "golden age" glory days.
But he eventually realizes that his family is the most important thing in the world to him, and in turn, his family embraces the fact that they are extraordinary supers instead of trying to suppress it.
Helen in comparison is just... fucking boring.
Pilot? Awesome.
Stunt motorcyclist? Sweet.
Stopped a runaway train without breaking anyone's neck? Fantastic.
Always the bigger and better person? Lame as shit. Her worst mistake was figuring out that a missing pizza delivery guy isn't the big villain. What does she actually learn? How did she grow or change as a character? Even in the B-plot, Bob is the one who improves.
Weak villain, weaker main protagonist, and running the Jack-Jack joke into the ground is a recipe for a really, really mediocre movie.
This. It wasn't bad, and had some good moments, but definitely wasn't worth the wait.
we get it, you hate women
nope, just bad writing
Did bad writing turn you down when you asked them out on a date?
>baby plotline was totally pointless
>some characters regressing to how they were earlier on in the previous movie (Mr.Incredible jealous of his wife and wanting to be a hero again)
>the surprise villain was incredibly obvious immediately
>villain was also incredibly weak
>most characters are either boring or have nothing to do
Doesn't make sense to make this movie 14 years after the first if you have this weak of a script.
>hating women so much that anything that empowers them over men is automatically "bad"
Yikes!
the original felt like movie strongly in its own time, the early-2000's era and it had its gray color palette accompanying this. at least when i watched the original, it seemed very unique and "special" (maybe due to nostalgia goggles). The sequel, despite being days after the original, is far smaller in its scope as well as feeling too "bright", too "colorful". It felt like the movie was taking place in a futuristic area, whereas the original used fucking flip phones. It did not have the subtleties that the original had
>tldr the sequels pretty trash / also the other hero designs are garbage
>It felt like the movie was taking place in a futuristic area
Yet the television sets look like they're from the late 60's
It's a retro-future, like Fallout.
trips of truth
I get it, thanks user.
The villain is literally the same as the 1st one except it's a bitch.
>Implying Syndrome wasn't Prince of Bitches
No, but it made me regret going on one to see this shitty movie a 2nd time.
I get you're just shitposting, but even you can drop the act long enough to agree that something like Voyd struggling to improve as a hero is a better story than Mrs. Incredible struggling to be interesting.
Wasn't Helen's conflict about balancing life between family and work?
Though to be fair, I had the impression from the ads that the movie focuses more on Bob as he's trying to learn how hard it must be to take care of kids.
>empowerment makes up for mediocre writing proving it is just meaningless currency
Yikes
Why Helen hips were so fucking huge in this movie?
Huge downgrade from I1. Lacked the clever subtle insight and the charismatic villain that made the first one work. Instead it was just a standard B- family drama with an action veneer over it.
Didn't feel like a sequel; just felt like "Incredibles done worse."
>lame redo of a plotpoint that should've been finished with the ending of the first movie
>no time skip because kid characters merch sells more
>feminism nods
>god awful new supers design, maybe the owl guy was alright
Incredibles 2, more like Incredibly Dissapointing
