Mr. Incredible: Yeah, Skippy here made sure of that.

Buddy: Incrediboy!

Mr. Incredible: YOU'RE NOT AFFILIATED WITH ME!

Cquote2

  • The dinner scene has many funny moments:
    • Bob celebrating Dash getting away with pranking his teacher, then Bob cutting through the plate.
    • Dash teasing Violet over her crush, followed by their fight. Jack-Jack enjoys it a lot. Lucius interrupts it by ringing the doorbell, forcing the Parrs to make everything look like nothing unusual happened. Bob tells Lucius, "Ice of you to drop by!", then Dash spits out water for Lucius to freeze, being disappointed that it didn't shatter.
    • This family exchange:
Cquote1

 Violet: The only normal one is Jack-Jack, and he's not even toilet-trained!

Dash: Lucky. (Helen gives him an odd look) I mean, about being normal.

Cquote2
  • Don't put your hands on the roof of your car if you have super-strength. Bob found that out the hard way when he was unable to close the door after he made finger-dents where the top of the door shuts. He did shut it eventually, but the window shattered. He then lifts his car in a fit of rage, only to be met by Rusty on a tricycle.
  • Mr. Incredible and Frozone's argument during the fire:
Cquote1

 Mr. Incredible: Can't you put this out?

Frozone: I can't lay down a layer thick enough! It's evaporating too fast!

Mr. Incredible: What's that mean?

Frozone: It means IT'S HOT! And I'm dehydrated, Bob!

Mr. Incredible: You're out of ice?! You can't run out of ice! I thought you could use the water in the air!

Frozone: There IS no water in this air! What's your excuse? You run out of muscle?!

Mr. Incredible: I can't just go smashing through walls! The building's getting weaker by the second! It's gonna come down right on top of us!

Frozone: I WANTED TO GO BOWLING!

Cquote2
    • And before that, their Lampshading of the tendency of bad guys to monologue.
Cquote1

 Frozone: So, now I'm in real trouble. One more blast of this death ray and I'm an epitaph. Somehow, I manage to find cover, and what does Baron von Ruthless do?

Mr. Incredible: (chuckles) Let me guess...He starts monologuing.

Frozone: He starts monologuing! He starts, like, this prepared speech about how feeble I am compared to him, how inevitable my defeat is, how the world will soon be his! Yadda yadda yadda.

Mr. Incredible: Yammering.

Frozone: Yammering! I mean, the guy has me on a platter, and he won't shut up!

Cquote2
      • Which turns into a Brick Joke in a later scene between Mr. Incredible and Syndrome.
Cquote1

 Syndrome: Now you respect me, because I'm a threat. Turns out there are a lot of people who want respect, and they'll pay through the nose to get it. How do you think I got rich? I invented weapons, and now I have a weapon only I can control and- [gets cut off as Mr. Incredible throws a tree trunk at him. He dodges and freezes Mr. Incredible in place.] You sly dog! You got me monologuing, I can't believe... [chuckles]

Cquote2
  • When Bob and Lucius find out about a nearby building fire, Bob is rather enthusiastic.
  • Bob and Lucius' argument during the fire rescue, and then looking like 'incompetent bad guys' when Bob barges into a jewellery store. Then Lucius makes the officer let him get a drink, just so he can freeze the officer and escape with Bob.
  • When Bob gets caught coming home late by Helen, he adopts a combat pose, while holding a slice of cake and having chocolate around his mouth. Their argument has some funny moments too, like Bob calling Dash's graduation 'psychotic', Helen stretching her neck to tower over Bob and the two eldest kids using their powers to eavesdrop.
  • In a display of literally superhuman self-control, it takes Huph being callously dismissive of and then openly mocking the victim of a mugging before Bob throws him through five walls and into a filing cabinet. He's several times the size of Huph, but it's still really cathartic (and hilarious). One of the commentaries talks about how the guy who animated it seemed to be working out an issue or two.
    • The squeak that Huph makes when he hits the floor.
  • Bob asking Rick Dicker, "I'm fired, aren't I?", then Dicker replying with, "Oh, you think?".
  • When Mirage's message self-destructs, it activates the sprinklers. It causes commotion from the kitchen, with Dash clearly enjoying it.

    • "...and call me when you get back, darling, I enjoy our visits."
    • "My God, you've gotten fat." The best part about that line is that it comes after Bob's big work-out-slim-down montage.
    • "...and machine-washable, dahling, that's a new feature."
    • Edna hitting Helen with a rolled up newspaper while saying "My God, pull. Yourself. Together!"
  • "I am Syndrome! Your nemesis! And... (inadvertently throws Mr. Incredible out of sight) oh, brilliant." It's likely he's had trouble with accidentally throwing things with zero-point energy before.
  • Two of Syndrome's guards see the ruined base of the monopod slide toward them, and aim their submachine guns into the darkness, looking for the culprit. Then the rest of the monopod comes hurling out of the sky and squashes them as they turn to flee.
  • When Helen is on the plane:
Cquote1

 Helen: Easy Helen, easy. Easy, girl. You're overreacting. Everything's fine. They're just...all getting coffee... at the same time. Yeah.

Cquote2

Helen: STOP IT!!! (Splashes water at them) We are NOT gonna die! Now BOTH of you will GET A GRIP. Or SO help me I will GROUND you for a month! UNDERSTAND?!?!?

Cquote2
  • Violet moping while sitting on her mother as Dash acts as a propellor, unable to help.

  • Dash shouting in the cave to hear the echoes, then realises a jet blast is coming their way, prompting him to get himself and Violet out.
  • After escaping the volcano, the kids spend the night out in the jungle. In the morning, Dash wakes up first...and realizes with disgust that he's cuddled up with Violet in his sleep.
  • When Elastigirl finds Bob's cell on the monitor, she exclaims "Bob!". She then retracts her head, leaving the two guards confused.
  • After surviving a long fall thanks to the forest's trees and vines, Dash celebrates jubilantly, only to unintentionally alert a couple of nearby guards to his presence.
  • When Elastigirl finds her husband hugging Mirage, it looks very awkward for them. Elastigirl knocks her out with a stretched punch while she tries to greet Elastigirl.
  • When the family is fighting Syndrome's guards, an aircraft explodes, and Bob and Helen say "I love you" to each other. Dash and Violet just blankly stare at their parents, slightly disgusted.
  • After Helen rescues Bob and they're running through the jungle looking for the kids while arguing.
Cquote1

 Bob: I should have told you about being fired, I admit it, but I didn't want you to worry.

Helen: You didn't want me to worry?! And now we're running for our lives through some forsaken jungle...

Bob: (grinning at her) You keep trying to pick a fight, but I'm still just happy you're alive!

Cquote2
  • "Elastigirl? You married Elastigirl?" (laughs, then looks at the kids) "Oh, and got BIZZAY!"
  • Violet freeing her family while Bob apologises for neglecting his family. Dash tries to bring attention to it, but Helen shushes him. Subtle, yet humorous.
  • The guards in the mobile van that the family steals are watching a TV with the Omnidroid destroying Metroville, while sipping a bottle of champagne. Bob immediately shows up, catching the cork, and the viewer can see the van rocking as he beats them up.
Cquote1

  "Alright, every time they run, we take a shot!"

Cquote2
  • The scene where Frozone is looking for his super suit.
Cquote1

"Why do you need to know?"

"I need it!"

"Uh uh! Don't you even think of runnin' off and doing no derring-do! We've been planning this dinner for two months!"

"The public is in danger!"

"My evening's in danger!"

"YOU TELL ME WHERE MY SUIT IS, WOMAN! WE ARE TALKING ABOUT THE GREATER GOOD!"

"GREATER GOOD?!? I AM YOUR WIFE!!! I'M THE GREATEST GOOD YOU ARE EVER GON' GET!!!!!!"

Cquote2
  • The Winnebago getting launched, with Helen stretched close to her capacity to hold it in the Omnidroid launch rig and grunting from the effort.

Helen: DO I HAVE TO ANSWER?!

Cquote2

Cquote1

 Dash: Are We There Yet?

Bob: We get there when we get there!

Cquote2
  • The Winnebago doing side somersaults, until it lands perfectly in a parking spot. The kids are dazed, yet enjoyed it.
  • Even though Jack-Jack's transformation from fiery baby to metal baby to monster can be scary, Syndrome's priceless look and high-pitched scream before Jack-Jack begins beating him up is funny.
  • Every single thing the kid on the tricycle says. Special points to this one:

  • At the end of the movie, Dash is finally able to try out for track, and his family is on the bleachers cheering him on... and warning him not to run too fast. The look on the other parents' faces as they listen to the Parrs' instructions of "Make it second! A close second!" is priceless.
    • Supplementary materials reveal that Dash gains an entire shelf of second-place track trophies.

Bonus content[]

Cquote1

 Helen: Are you having an affair?
Bob: Yeah. Me and the old lady. One look at her laundry and I had to have her. Are you nuts?
