Still not an actor.
Sadly, I think all we can say is that he's not a good actor.
I came to the conclusion, though, that Sarah Vowell's not only not an actor, she's not acting in The Incredibles. She's reading. To great effect, but she's reading.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Shaquille O'Neal has played the lead in a couple of films.
Maybe the people making the determination suffered traumatic amnesia after seeing Kazaam! and don't remember the movie at all?

I have a plan.
Hey, don't forget his action epic 'Double Team' with Jean Claud Van something or other.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
My favorite line is near the end, when the forensic psychologist, played by Max Von Sydow, turns to Donald Sutherland (the political officer) and Stephen Rhea (the cop who's been chasing the serial killer) and tells them "It's been a pleasure working with you. Together, the two of you make a wonderful person."
Yes! I loved that line!

I think that was Dennis Rodman, not Shaq.

Definitely Rodman.
That movie has my favourite product placement ever. The soda saves the day.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
I think that was Dennis Rodman, not Shaq.
Who's also taller than Lee. So are Michael Jordan (Space Jam) and Alex English (Amazing Grace and Chuck). Shaq was also in Steel.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
All of those exultation moments in The Incredibles were my crypoints. I get weepy when Pixar characters realize things. Add family-coming-together moments in there, and I'm done for.

Compassionately intolerant
That, the family coming together moment, where mom is the boat and junior is the engine was my one crypoint in the Incredibles.
The realization moments, or self-sacrifice moments, or giving into fate (the Elephant Man choosing to w lie down , knowing the consequences. Those get me every time.
