Best. Superhero. Movie. EVER!

I agree. While I'm not big on sequels as a rule, I truly wish they'd make one for "The Incredibles". It's one of my favorite movies.

Nope - Spider-man 2 is the best ever, though The Incredibles is runner-up.

cliché? Bullets bounce off superman's chest but he ducks when the gun is thrown at him.

under worked plot: boy meets girl. Boy skins girl and makes lampshades. Silence of the Lambs.

And another: baddie can dodge bullets but he can't dodge fists.

From a practical point of view, a special affect of a bullet bouncing off added later doesn't hurt an actor, a real gun bouncing off the head will!

IIRC, that only happened on the old Superman TV series from the 1950s.

And IMO, "The Incredibles" is still better than "Spiderman II" but that's just a personal opinion. They showed "The Incredibles" last night and it's as funny as ever. There's a lot of things in there that make it much more than just another cartoon, too. Terrific movie - one deserving of a good sequel.

It will get one, whether it's good or not, Engage Cliche SubSubTitle "The Search for More Money"

Great idea! This could show that there is a use for tattoos after all.

I can see the by-line: Miami Ink: In the Sade.

No lampshades are made in Silence of the Lambs; that would be wasting the leather.

In Doctor Who, you can see the body explode, be exterminated by Daleks and left in a corridor for 1000 years, or be incinerated, then incinerated again, then incinerated a third time, and still the person will come back, usually with no explanation worth speaking of.

A Doctor Who sin that's probably widespread: If a spaceship's engine fails while the spaceship is in orbit around Earth, its orbit will decay very rapidly.

Star Trek's done likewise, most notably in the classic episode "Galileo Seven."

Everything I need to know I learned through Googling.

My favorite in "Superman" was the criminal sneaking up behind Superman and hitting him over the head with the revolver only to have the barrel bend. Never mind Superman, just how strong were these criminals to be able to do that? They would have to be almost as strong as Superman!

In "Silence of the Lambs", Buffalo Bill wasn't making lampshades. He was making a girl suit to wear.

Plus, doesn't Superman have, y'know, super hearing? Why even bother letting someone sneak up on you like that? Unless that's how Superman just gives himself a chuckle once in a while.

Well, fighting petty crime when you have super-powers must be really boring. I know I'd bend my super-brain to the task of coming up with as many ways to mess with my opponents' heads as I could, just for the chuckles.

Then again, I have an evil mind, and Superman doesn't.

The front wheel drive cars that keep driving "forever" when cut in half...in most cars, the fuel tank is in the back half, so the car would shortly run out of gas and stall out.

In flashbacks of immortal antagonists/ancestors of antagonists in a cartoon, you will see the two fighters:
1) Knocking the nose off the sphinx.
2) Causing the Tower of Pisa to lean.
3) Sinking the Titanic.

One thing I don't get with Superman is that he only uses his heat vision as a last resort weapon against super-villains. Why get into melee combat when you can hit them from a distance?

I've never seen any of that. What cartoons are you watching?
