Not really though. Actually, I’m pretty sure the first Incredibles movie has more inappropriate subtext than the sequel. It’s not like it’s harmful to kids either way though, because it’s pretty subtle. Incredibles has always been more dark than other Pixar films anyway.

And yeah, they explained the villain’s motives, but it didn’t really make sense. I don’t know, Incredibles 2 just left me with a bad taste in my mouth, as per the case with too many recent Disney films (at this point they should just bring back Eisner if they really care about the quality of their movies at all).

Overall, I just hate the new Disney. I could go on a rant about this. Long story short, STOP IT with the live-action remakes!! Sure, maybe adult jokes don’t serve for the story, but you know what’s even worse? Literally anything Illumination has ever made! But that pales in comparison to all the live-action remakes Disney is pumping out!! Those ENTIRE movies have jo reason to exist!! The one I’m most angry with is The Lion King. The fact that it’s animated anyway, just photorealistic becuase “live action is more mature” is so disrespectful to the craft itselt and the talented people who worked on the original. Like, I guess the new Beauty and the Beast was OK, it was better than some of the other ones, but it definitely doesn’t come close to living up to the original film. I was talking about this with my math tutor, and she said, “You know, I kind of agree with you... but what if you could see Cinderella dancing in 3D?” Which I think just proves to me that she doesn’t have the kind of respect for animation that I do. Cinderella is a masterpiece. It’s absolutely stunning. I don’t think you could recreate it in CGI and make it as good as it is. Literally, it would just be every single old Barbie movie. (So I’m being clear, I like old Barbie movies, but the villains never seem to fit into the story with their designs and stuff... my favorite of the originals has to be Diamond Castle. I love 12 Dancing Princesses, but Diamond Castle handled feminism pretty much perfectly — meaning, the male leads themselves weren’t total idiots, just a bit overconfident— and it’s such a pretty movie considering the low budget these movies have, especially back in 2008. Only complaint is that watching the girls travel to random places does get boring.)
