What in god's name makes you think I'm trolling? You're just denouncing me as a troll because you can't handle seeing your favorite cartoon criticized.
I've seen plenty of animated films that have worse review scores than The Incredibles, like The Black Cauldron or Final Fantasy The Spirits Within, but oddly enough I enjoy those films a trillion times more than I enjoy The Incredibles. FYI film journalism & the Oscars are completely venal and dishonest. Film journalists are often employed directly by film studios; a good example would be Siskel and Ebert, who's show was purchased by Disney in the mid 1980s, and remains under Dinsey's ownership to this day. This is why Disney films were always so heavily promoted on their show. Roger Ebert, despite claiming in one of his reviews that he doesn't consider Disney animation art compared to works by Studio Ghibli, still gave every single Disney animated film from the 80s and 90s a "thumbs up". Interestingly, in a separate story, Disney barred a different american film critic Armond White from attending previews of their films because he has a reputation of giving their films negative reviews. It just goes to show how far wealthy studios like Disney will go to silence the integrity of criticism.
Personally for me, I lump The Incredibles with all those god-awful Disney renaissance animated musicals from the 90s on a 1-5 scale of quality. Even by american standards it is an exceptionally irritating animated film. I absolutely hate it.
