Kids features on a movie directed mostly toward kids? *gasp*

I'm all over this. The film was fantastic enough, but those extras are the icing on the proverbial cake.

Oh, and I must (at least partially) agree with Typecase on this one - the features on Nemo did tend to skew toward the younger end of the age spectrum. Nothing wrong with that, as badger1997 pointed out, but for my tastes (and since IMO The Incredibles is far less of a "kids' film" than any of the previous Pixar outings) I don't mind the omission of the games et. al. in favor of more directly film-related material. Judging from the interviews I've read with Brad Bird his commentary should be quite good.

Either I'm blind, or it does not show the dimensions of the lithographs. Any idea the size of the?

No you are right. Are they 8x10? Maybe somebody else would know.

Just got my hands on The Incredibles. It is without a doubt one of the best DVDs I've ever picked up! After watching the film on disc 1 (having already seen it twice before), I immediately popped in disc 2 for the special features (and I hardly ever do that, especially not at 2am).

Let me reassure you that this DVD does not disappoint, and pretty much all the bonus features are adult-friendly. "Jack-Jack Attack" is a great addition to the film, and I loved watching the altered/deleted scenes - they really added to my appreciation of the final product. Edna Mode is my favorite character, and "E Volution" was a cool little feature that showed the different stages in creating her.

Anyone else have this and find all the easter eggs yet? I've seen about 4 of them, but I am certain there are a lot more.

I've found 12 and covered them in my review.

A head's up to those of you preordering for lithographs from Disney: they'll only be stocking the fullscreen edition. Apparently, this is true for both online and in-store purchases. A short-sighted decision that's bound to disappoint those of you who want the whole movie as it was theatrically framed.

But ya, the DVD is awesome!

If that is true, then I guess I'm going back to the Disney store tonight to get a refund. They didn't mention anything about that when I did the pre-order.

oh I can't wait to take this DVD over to my friend's apartment and fire this up on his 42' widescreen Plasma monitor.
