The Incredibles 2 is Incredible:

So I got around to watching the latest Disney movie, Incredibles 2, thanks to youtube rentals.  It's one of my favorite Disney movies ever, 9th place out of a great many great movies.  The family got along better than ever, the villain was interesting and unique, the action scenes were gripping and the jokes were popping.

One of my favorite aspects of the movie is how you could never tell what would happen next -- how hard it was to just get on the airplane as compared to how easy it was to defeat the last boss.  How the smooth talking extrovert was the good guy while the empowered woman scientist was the bad guy.  The story keeps you guessing and overturns PC cliches.

With Incredibles 2 making my movie hall of fame, I kicked out another bad James Bond movie to make room.  No loss there.  I'd like to kick out a lot more in the future if Disney can just keep making animated classics like this one to take their place.
