4.20 Exploring Gender Roles in INCREDIBLES 2

July 4, 2018 by Steve Norton Leave a Comment

Picking up where they left off, INCREDIBLES 2 reintroduces us to the Parr family as they seek to bring evil-doers to justice in a world where superheroes are illegal. When a mysterious billionaire invites them to work with him, Elastigirl goes back to work while Bob takes care of the homefront. As a result, Pixar takes a swing at gender dynamics in a #MeToo world by its reversal of stereotypes… but does it work? This week, ScreenFish’rs Alan Sharrer and Heather Johnson join Steve to discuss the film’s portrayal of gender, screen slaves and power of children.
