10 Best The Incredibles Moments
5. Parr Family Dinner
The Parr family’s dinner scene is a masterclass in controlled chaos, with a side of superpowers. Bob is too caught up in his dead-end job to notice much, Helen is desperately trying to keep things together, Dash can’t resist messing with his sister, and Violet is just trying to disappear… literally. And then there’s Jack-Jack, blissfully unaware of the madness, adding an extra layer of comedy.
Things get wild when Dash speeds around the table, and Helen has to stretch herself (literally) to keep Dash and Violet in line. This scene is family life cranked up to eleven, with a super-powered twist. Every family has these moments of sibling squabbles and parental exasperation, but in the Parr household, it’s all turned up a notch. And when Bob casually lifts the entire dinner table with one hand? That’s peak superhero absurdity.
This scene works because it’s so relatable, even with the super-powered antics. It’s a fun reminder that, powers or not, family life is messy, chaotic, and sometimes downright hilarious.
4. The Good Ol’ Days
The opening of The Incredibles is pure nostalgia, taking us back to the glory days of superheroes with a clever faux-documentary. Mr. Incredible, Elastigirl, and Frozone are at their peak, casually chatting in grainy film footage that feels like it was pulled straight from an old newsreel. Mr. Incredible plays it cool, Elastigirl laughs off the idea of slowing down, and Frozone drops in with his signature humor, setting the stage perfectly.
This intro does a great job of building the world while giving us a sneak peek into who these heroes are, all wrapped up in a fun nod to old-school comic books. The documentary style makes it feel like these supers are real people or folks you’d see on TV or in a magazine back in the day.
What really makes this moment shine is how effortlessly it introduces us to the world of The Incredibles while teasing the challenges ahead. These quick, punchy interviews show our heroes at their best – right before everything changes. It’s a clever, fun way to kick off the story, mixing humor, nostalgia, and a bit of foreshadowing.

3. “Where’s My Supersuit?”
One of the most iconic moments in The Incredibles occurs when Frozone exclaims, “Where’s my super suit?” Though this moment is short, its impact is anything but.
Frozone (voiced by Samuel L. Jackson) hilariously finds himself in a marital spat with his wife, Lucius, who insists he can’t dash off to save the day without addressing their missed dinner plans. The absurdity of their domestic argument, set against the backdrop of a giant robot wreaking havoc outside, is a brilliant clash of superhero chaos and everyday life.
This moment has become one of the most quoted lines in Pixar history, solidifying Frozone’s status as a fan favorite and sparking widespread demand for a solo Frozone movie.
