Bomb Voyage. Best name ever. I hope he’s in the sequel. ---

Edna. The house. The murals. The floor to ceiling glass windows. The display niches. The walk-through reflecting pool. The accent. ---

Oh yeah, and that kick-ass design room and unlimited fabrics. And damn, that fold-away design table. MINE! ---

Edna. Everyone else, too, but Edna is definitely the star. Also, I want everything in her building. 😃 ---

Screw Mr. Incredible, it’s his wife who steals the show. They shoulda just called this thing _Elastigirl: the Movie_. ---

Yeah, I have to go with Elastigirl. Tough, smart, cute, and a technical masterpiece. I mean, stretchy powers can look really dumb, but they pulled it off wonderfully. The Fantastic Four movie have quite an act to follow. ---

Holly Hunter was great, so I might have to go with Elastigirl, too. ---

Syndrome, he’s got the cynical attitude that makes him likeable, just too bad about the cape… Frozone is also quite “cool” (no pun intended 😉 ) Elastigirl’s a given 😉 ---

I think Edna gets the best lines. My favorite is " . . . and guest." ---

EDNA! Hands down. Since seeing this movie, my friends have given me permission to become a sarcastic, pushy old lady. As long as I make them spandex suits. No capes! “My god, you’ve gotten fat.” But Lucius is pretty high on my favorites list, too. “Superladies, they’re always trying to tell you their secret identity. Think it’ll strengthen the relationship, or something like that.” ---

I have to go with Mr. Incredible. He reminds me of myself so much. Except if I were him, I’d listen to my wife more. And talk to her more… Oh who am I trying to kid. I’d be dumber than he is. 😃 Still, you have to admit. He’s got the heart of gold, that’s why she puts up with him. Satch ---

Embarassingly, I will say Elastigirl. She reminded me a lot of an ex-coworker. Same temperment, attitude, etc. They both also have similiar facial features & body types (except for the stretching thing). The most noticable similiarity was they both had the same nice round butt. :eek: ---

Edna. “Very well…I will fix the hobo suit.” “Darling, we really must talk like this more often. Come for tea.” ---

Edna was a scream. Have to put her at the top of the list, just slightly edging out Elasti-Girl. ---

The most noticable similiarity was they both had the same nice round butt. :eek: Hmm… I am strangely aroused by elastigirl. I think it’s because she reminds me of someone as well. I feel a little weird about it, never really had that reaction to a cartoon (not even anime and manga).
