Syndrome says that if everyone is super then no-one is super. How does this apply to Pixar’s track record of making super high quality films? This week, we’ve actually let Ethan pick a film again after his debacle with “The Wild” and it’s a good one in “The Incredibles.” Ellie, Georgia, Ethan, and Ian discuss Pixar’s first all-human narrative. Ethan regales us with tales from context corner and the semi-autobiographical nature of Brad Bird’s screenplay, we debate the internal logic of running back into a burning building, ask whether Frozone ever needs to urinate or if freezing things does the trick, we take a look at the gender politics behind the weight gain behind Mr and Mrs Incredible, Georgia just wants to know how the mask physics work while Ian maintains that Syndrome is a much more sympathetic villain than he's made out to be.
