A slightly twisted aspect is that sometimes people just throw toys in the trash, so Sid seems to be over his fear…unless he starts freaking out when he finds a cowboy doll peeking out of the trash bag hehehe.
In effect, Hopper was taken by just what he believed was the “natural order” of things, in ways, the food chain. Hence why he got so crossed when his brother mentioned that THEY were suppose to get eaten by birds. And yeah, became part of the plot in the final scenes with the construction and use of the bird.
I don’t recall any profile, bu do hope he became content. Pete’s actions were…well…separate from everybody else considering his goal was simply to be put on and admired forever. It’s quite a conundrum thought. Be forever behind a glass wall, admired but never leaving. Or risk being destroyed/forgotten but essentially loved for a time…possibly forever.
One of the things that make people cross about this issue, at least to me, is that Randall wasn’t a threat near the end, especially to Boo. As for admitting to Sullivan he wanted to kill him…I…sorry I can’t so much agree with that. If you mean when he hit Sullivan with that canister and said “I’ve always wanted to do that”, I think it was mainly Randall just getting the “go ahead” to take out his frustration on Sullivan (he has his reasons but I won’t go into detail).
But if you mean on the conveyor belt, on the door…well…I’m just glad Boo DID step in and “whack the thought” out of his head.
And yeah, Randall has some things to work through, which is why it would be good for a redemption arc, because Sullivan and Wazowski would (should) have some issues to work out themselves.
And thank you for realizing that yes, he wasn’t killed.
Hahah, good one. Innocence hehehe.
Only saving grace I see is that he didn’t kill Jack-Jack but yeah…Syndrome should have cut his losses…I mean…Buddy should have cut his losses…but instead revenge purely against the Incredibles was making him far too gone.
Yeah, Chick really needs to get his priorities straight. I mean cheating in something is wrong…but he could have possibly KILLED King in that race. Sure, probably wasn’t his intention…but still yeah he just needs to get himself worked out.
You mean with closing down Guesteu’s? Yeah actually yeah that was his goal later on. Huh…you know I wonder whatever happened to him. Thinking in this way, it’s actually quite interesting that he did “win”.
Good way of putting it. Maybe if somebody took out that A113 order in Auto he’d be able to function again normally, without the HAL-like approach.
Mental decay, yes. I mean afterall he didn’t even have an anchor for his blimp (anybody see Rocketeer?), you’d think an experienced adventurer would know that precaution.
Yes, some time to think would be good…but…I’m unsure if this was the right way to go. Afterall this doesn’t really solve Lotso’s demeanor…afterall it’s not like this truck driver is showing any form of love and affection…then again that’s what got Lotso in this position in the first place. Oui, head hurt.
Not a lot of people can control themselves sometimes, especially in positions for these guys. Buddy had his idol, at least in his mind, turned upside down. Muntz lost what he gained and strived to get it back, turning it into his only endeavor. Randall…well…working as hard as he did on his job along with nights on the extractor, trying to keep things under-wraps so nothing bad happens…an accumulation of things sort of made it harder for him to control.
shakes head No it doesn’t justify things. I mean Muntz IS old. I mean look at uhh…Carl…he is like…what? Pushing 80/50? And Muntz was like in his 20s or 30s in the opening we saw. The guy is incredibly old. So MAYBE some mental disease or something hit him…but generally I think it was the gnawing belief that “If somebody tries to take this bird from me…I won’t let them…it’s the only way to fix things”.
When he started showing those “helmets” of previous “visitors”…it was obvious something was wrong. It’s unknown if he actually killed these people…but it is likely I suppose.
Then again, as said, his dog’s…planes…were equipped with, as noted in the shots, tranq darts. So I’m unsure if Muntz had anything lethal. The sword, yes, but that was display. I haven’t watched the film in awhile, but…I think yes there was a shotgun or a hunting rifle that had real bullets. Yes…I suppose if he had that those people might have been killed (ala the “greatest hunt”)
What separates, at least in some way to me, Randall from Muntz and Syndrome is that he didn’t aim to kill anybody. Randall stated himself that he was going to have Sullivan work for him once the Extractor went through, so he didn’t aim to hurt anybody. Muntz and Syndrome, as we find out, have already killed before.
Loving someone to hate
