Dana and Tom with returning guests Robb Conlon (Founder of Westport Studios and Host of B2B Business Class) and Walter Gainer II (Founder of Boss Locks Media and Host of The Working While Black Show) discuss the Pixar classic, The Incredibles (2004): written and directed by Brad Bird, music by Michael Giacchino, starring Craig T. Nelson, Holly Hunter, Jason Lee, and Samuel L. Jackson.
Plot Summary: In a world where superheroes were once revered, an oppressive government now forces these titans of justice into mundane lives of obscurity. Among them is Bob Parr, a titan of strength, grappling with the weight of anonymity while craving the days of glory. Secretly slipping into the world of heroism, Bob is drawn into a sinister conspiracy masterminded by the malevolent Syndrome, a dark mirror of what once was. When Bob is captured, the stage is set for a battle of wits and power, drawing his family into the fray.
The Incredibles transcends mere action, weaving a tapestry of psychological and existential exploration with a family’s struggle against a dystopian reality becoming a cosmic odyssey of self-discovery and unity.
