But since the Incredible family's powers are special, they all turn out just great, even though their dad's an elitist prick.

Mr Incredible NEVER EVER said, "You can't be here, you aren't SPECIAL." He said, "Go home, you are a child and it's dangerous. This is my JOB." How is that being elitist? IIRC.

Err, wasn't Jason Lee the voice of Syndrome?

Yes, he is.

That kid totally needed to be shut down. Maybe Mr. Incredible didn't do it in the smoothest way possible (if he had, and Syndrome hadn't had the craxxy brewing, where would the story be), but he did do the right thing.

And where were Syndrome's parents? Why is Mr Incredible blamed for their lack of teaching and love? Huh huh huh?

I'm on Mr. Incredible's side on this one. The kid was annoying, and getting in the way. Plus he'd already done a bunch of stuff for him. And the kid was annoying.

Why is Mr Incredible balmed for their lack of teaching and love? Huh huh huh?

Because his suit was chafing?

sorry, but the typo made me laugh and laugh at the image it invoked

Also, backing up Jars, it is not unlike a kid in a plastic fireman's hat trying to tag along on a run with an actual firefighter.

On another movie, LATimes ran an article re: V for Vendetta and Allan Moore was quoted from a BBC interview as saying he couldn't have suffered worse treatment from Hollywood if he had "sodomized and murdered a busload of children after giving them heroin."

Except that the Incredible kids are shown as having the capabilities (mentally, physically, and morally) of adult superheroes at an even younger age. They come by it naturally. It's "in their blood." (squiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiick)

I don't think this is honestly something I can argue rationally, because it hits me so hard at a gut level.

It's "in their blood."

IT'S THE MIDOCLORIANS AGAIN!!!
