It's not just gender politics. Incredibles 2 wasn't an animated film. It was a regular film with bland, unoriginal and in your face critique of modern world. For some reason it was animated.

For example, I can't imagine kids sitting through Screenslaver's monologue on society's vices when I as an adult was immediately bored out of my mind. Or, for god's sake, a meeting of world leaders to sign documents.

The whole movie was one inconsequential set piece after another with exactly one of them being funny and interesting: Edna.

Edit: can anyone explain to me why Frozone is a) so useless and b) given so much screentime?




> I can't imagine kids sitting through Screenslaver's monologue

Do you have kids?

I have a six year old that's watched the movie, monologue and all, more times than I can count.


Put a kid in front of Frozen and watch their reaction and you will get your answer.


They really need to just let it go.
