Violet: [interrupting] Normal? What do *you* know about normal? What does *anyone* in *this* family know about normal?
Helen: Now wait a minute, young lady...
Violet: We act normal, mom! I want to *be* normal! The only normal one is Jack-Jack, and he's not even toilet trained!
Ive chosen The Incredibles as my chosen film because of the charcter development and interaction.
This film surrounds the "human world" unlike most pixar films which look at insects, toys, robots etc. It follws the Parrs, a five member superhero family tring to adopt civilian identities and live a "normal life" in the suberbs. Bob Parr, formally known as Mr Incredible was forced to retreat from superhero duties to work for an insurance company. Bob miserable at his job, still finds a way to help citizens by finding loopholes etc but it wasnt filling his superhero abilities so he went back to be a crime fighter.
Helen Parr (Elastigirl),Bobs wife, setted down in suberbia with their three kids Violet, Dash, and baby Jack-Jack. The family behave and conform to a typical family which makes them relatable to audiences; Violet is a shy insecure teenage girl who cannot talk to her her crush, Dash the annoying younger brother who gets into a trouble with the principal,Bob is stuck in a dead end job wanting something more, and Helen the curvy housewife and mother. Even at dinner they find a way of irritating on another.

Their powers, super and family orientated, are put to the test when teaming up to fight the villian Syndrome! These superheroes are not immortal and have to deal with real world day to day problems. They are not like the supers from comics or cartoons. They are real people who wont get back up and save the day, they can die.
Minor characters in Pixar Films always have an impact on audiences.
Bob's friend and co-superhero Frozone (Samuel L Jackson),Costume Designer Edna Mode (Brad Bird)and also a young boy on a bike who although only makes two appearances in the film, is a funny and memorable.
