Mr. Incredible learns the truth...

A crescendo of deception and isolation.

Buddy being cast aside by his hero.
Supers lured out of hiding, individually, deceived and murdered, totally alone.
Bob lying to his family, leaving them and himself vulnerable, realising only too late the consequences of his decisions and the magnitude of the situation.

Even as a kid, I knew there was something tense about this scene. It didn't blow past me that these supers were killed, in fact I think I'm probably one of the very few in this comment section that knew from the get go that "yup these guys are dead", but the atmosphere behind this scene unsettled me even back then. Growing up now, I've only truly realized the weight that this scene holds. It's one thing to be a kid and realize that these people were dead--it's another to realize what that means for Bob.

Aside from that, the score here is fantastic. The music keeps you on edge--it's like it's telling you that Bob SHOULDN'T be here knowing all this yet at the same time he has to. And of course, it keeps you on edge on whether he's going to get caught or not.

Still this is the best and only incredibles this hits so much harder

I was today years old when I realized that this basically makes syndrome a serial killer. Man, Pixar made this scene go by so fast to soften the blow that those supers were MURDERED. As a kid, it didn’t hit me but as an adult it makes me feel sick almost.

Pixar’s Order 66

As a kid i never understood this part, now i know this was dark 😂

Which has more kill count? Syndrome or cape?

I like how mr incredible has the highest threat ratings of 9.1

This scene was a masterpiece. Explaining so much, in so little time, with almost no spoken words.

That's what happens when you don't look after your near and dear ones

No wonder what the Superheroes were kill off by Robots

nah like but why there's "return" instead of "enter"?

Syndrome literally going genocidal “coz my hero worked alone” and said genocidal rampage resulting in Syndrome having a higher body count than a porn star?!

“You’re an adult; quit watching kids’ movies!”

Mr. Incredible rejected Buddy when he was trying to help him. Little did he know, his arrogance had created the villain that would murder basically everyone he knew. In a way, he’s responsible for all their deaths

how come mr incredible didnt notice about robot killing old hero?

I was too young to understand the majesty of this movie. The absolute build up, the realization, the pay off.. Pixar's masterpiece..

I thought this was a meme.

This scene really hits harder as an adult. As a kid I really didn’t understand but now realizing that Syndrome really was just out here murdering all of these superheroes like this was just insane. And what really makes it worse is that these are Bob’s lifelong hero friends and finding out that they were all killed and he could “technically” be the cause of their deaths probably hit very hard. What a great movie this was.

I guess this is why Incredibles 2 will never hold up like the OG.
