Jack-Jack crashing Edna's fashion show, the return of Kari the babysitter, and the reveal
of Frozone's wife are just some of the amazing scenes cut from Pixar's Incredibles 2.
Yippee-ki-yay, movie lovers, it's Jan here and in this video I'll be revealing and explaining
five Incredibles 2 deleted scenes that you probably wish Pixar had included in the movie.
Plus keep watching to the end for an extra Edna and Jack-Jack clip where I'll reveal
two new Jack-Jack powers we never saw in the main movie.
If this is your first time here, I do regular deep dives into your favourite Pixar, Disney
and superhero movies so tap the bell to keep up to date with all my new videos.
"FROZONE: Honey?"
"What?"
"FROZONE: Where's my supersuit?"
"I had to..
I'm washing it!"
"FROZONE: Don't lie to me!
I keep that suit spotless!"
"FROZONE: And you better not be trying to hide it on me!"
"It.. it was filthy!"
"FROZONE: It was next to godliness clean and ready for action!"
"I'm not playing with you."
"It was filthy!"
"How dare you?!"
"How dare you.."
"Aha!"
"Lucius don't you think you can get away from me!"
"Lucius!"
Now, I really wish this scene had been in the movie.
It's a wonderful callback to that hilarious scene in the first Incredibles where Frozone
goes searching for his supersuit after looking out the window and seeing Syndrome's Omnidroid
wreaking havoc on the city.
"Where is my supersuit?"
"HONEY: I put it away."
This time around it's Honey who spots the Underminer's enormous drilling machine causing
chaos and who then hilariously and frantically tries to find somewhere to hide Frozone's
suit.
I think it would have been nice to see the woman behind the voice especially as she was
such huge hit with fans in the first movie.
Incredibles 2 director Brad Bird has said this original scene took too much momentum
away from the Underminer action sequence at the beginning of the movie and he felt that,
in the end, Honey was funnier as a voice as that way everyone who watches the film can
have their own idea of what she looks like.
Although I can see Bird's perspective up to a point and I enjoyed Incredibles 2, I can't
help but think this extra scene with Honey would have just been fantastic.
Fun fact: The design for Honey in this deleted clip was actually reused later in the movie
for one of the other supers who assemble on the Deavor's yacht.
Edna and Jack-Jack's scenes together are some of the funniest in Incredibles 2 and there's
some amazing bonus material on the Blu-ray which reveals some great extra scenes with
the two characters.
The first is a deleted scene where Edna is hosting her own fashion show which Jack-Jack
accidentally and amusingly interrupts.
"E, I'm operating on no sleep."
"I'm telling you this baby is freaking me out!"
"Yes."
"I don't know where he's gonna be, I don't know what he's gonna be."
"Robert!"
"Anything can happen and I've got to respond."
"Robert!"
"What, what?"
"The baby is gone."
"What is it Humphrey?"
"They're going crazy, they want you to take a bow."
"And they want the glitter baby."
"No glitter baby!"
"First the team will bow, then the junior designers, then I will come."
"No glitter baby."
This is a great scene that I'm sure many fans would have loved to have seen in the final
film.
It shows how Edna's real passion is designing outfits for Supers, but because they're illegal
she has to work with supermodels who we already know that Edna has very little regard for:
"Supermodels."
"Nothing super about them."
"Spoiled, stupid little stick-figures with poofy lips who think only about themselves."
Plus, seeing Jack-Jack turn into a "Glitter Baby" would have been really fun and I wonder
if it's supposed to be an additional power we didn't see in the movie.
We did see Jack-Jack's mimicry powers when he transforms his appearance into a reflection
of Edna, but this feels like it might be a kind of adaptive or camouflaging-type power.
Incredibles 2 is Pixar's longest film to date and I suspect this scene was cut because the
movie was pretty packed.
Although we do get some fantastic moments with Edna and Jack-Jack in the final film,
it's always great to see more!
By the way, the clothes in Edna's fashion line "Mode" were worn by models but still
drew inspiration from the powers of Edna's favourite clients: Superheroes.
For example, the see-through chiffon around this model's head was inspired by the look
of a force field.
Next up is a deleted scene that's perhaps a bit dark where we discover what happened
to Kari the Babysitter after the first movie.
"Hi Nancy!"
"Oh, Helen, Bob!"
"I hope we're not interrupting dinner."
"Actually, we'd like to talk to Kari about.."
"We thought it might be best if we just dropped by."
"You were supposed to be back late in the evening.
You left her in charge of your baby overnight and into the next day."
"Well I'm sorry about that.
That was not planned."
"The er..
The kids kind of surprised me."
"That took us by surprise as well.
A baby's a lot of responsibility for a teenager and I think Kari got a bit overwhelmed."
"She was hysterical."
"She calmed down."
"She's been twitchy ever since."
"Hello Mr and Mrs Parr."
"Kari, just the girl I wanted to see.
We were talking about when you were babysitting for us.
Did you notice anything odd about Jack-Jack?"
"Not that I remember.
It's a blank."
"But all those phone messages you left us."
"Phone messages?"
"You don't remember?"
"No, oh op."
"Was that no?"
"What?"
"Jack-Jack?"
"Ha, ha!"
"That's what I'm talking about, twitchy!"
Kari's role in the first Incredibles movie was expanded when she featured in the short
film Jack-Jack Attack which showed her discovering baby Parr's superpowers and then having her
memory wiped by Rick Dicker.
This deleted scene from Incredibles 2 is pretty dark because it looks like Dicker's memory
erasing might have really messed Kari up.
Kari's obviously a fan favourite character especially since appearing in the Jack-Jack
short so I think many Pixar fans would have liked a chance to catch up and find out what
happened to her.
However, the answer is a little unsettling to say the least and given this scene was
one of the filmmakers' options for opening the movie, I can see why Pixar ended up scrapping
it.
There's an interesting action scene cut out of the final movie where Edna's high-tech
systems [at her home] begin attacking her and Mr Incredible.
"I've lost control of my security system!"
The theme that Bird wanted to explore in this deleted scene was the idea of artificial intelligence
systems turning against their human creators.
If you feel this sounds familiar, you're right because it's pretty much what happened when
Syndrome's Omnidroid turned against him in The Incredibles.
Initially, this artificial intelligence theme was actually the main story for the sequel.
In this cut scene, Bird wanted to show what could happen if high tech systems like the
ones Edna has became corrupted.
This idea of corrupted A.I.
was eventually abandoned though in favour of the Screenslaver villain plot, perhaps
because it might have felt too similar to the Omnidroid twist from the first movie.
This action scene, which has vibes of James Bond about it, does look pretty cool though,
and Bird has said he might still explore the A.I.
idea in another movie.
Incredibles 2 opens at a very fast pace, pretty much picking up with the Parr's facing off
against the Underminer.
However, originally, Bird planned to kick the movie off at the Parr family home and
remind us of how it was destroyed during the battle with Syndrome.
"I hate to cut short a tender moment, but unless you wanna explain this to a crowd?"
"Come on!"
"When they notice I'm gone, just say I went to call Dicker, OK?"
"Hmm, OK."
"Hmm, Dicker."
"Mr Dicker, it's me, Violet, Violet Parr.
You know how you just drove us to our house and my parents are superheroes?"
"Sure kid."
"Yes, yes!
The extraction point.
Down!
They'll know where that is."
Although it's a fun clip, it's not as good as the action-packed opening scene we did
get, especially as it doesn't tie in so well with the very end of the first movie where
the Underminer suddenly popped up.
And here's the bonus Edna and Jack-Jack scene from the Auntie Edna short which shows what
happened the night after Bob left Jack-Jack with Edna while he got some sleep.
"OK, come out and show me."
"Walk it, yes.
There it is.
The room is yours."
"They are lucky to be in your presence."
"Now the turn.
Yes!
You are a tiny god!"
"Dada is here.
Let's show him how fabulous you look."
That turn Edna gets Jack-Jack to do is just adorable and when she calls him a "tiny god",
it's a call-back to the first movie where Edna was frustrated with not being able to
legally design for supers anymore.
"Feh!
I used to design for gods."
Also, notice in this scene how Edna has been making a list of all of Jack-Jack's powers.
The movie revealed at the end that Jack-Jack has a total of 17 powers and, so far Edna
seems to have 14 of them on her list, but intriguingly there's two new ones listed under
Edna's "Elemental Shift" category called "Smoke" and "Liquid".
A promo spot for the Blu-ray release shows what these look like.
It appears that Jack-Jack can turn into smoke allowing a ball that Edna tosses at him to
pass right through him.
Then there's a shot of Jack-Jack where it looks like he can even turn into a literal
water baby.
These two powers didn't show up in Incredibles 2, but if you'd like a full breakdown of all
