Personality [ ]

Apart from his obviously evil and insane persona, Bomb Voyage is very sarcastic, mocking 'Incrediboy' for trying to intervene on his crimes.

Physical appearance [ ]

Bomb Voyage has a tall and slim build with minimal musculature. He has a long face, with a particularly long chin, that is covered by face painting resembling that of a mime. He wears a beret that covers his black hair and wears a pair of bandoliers that crisscrosses his chest, with both of them being covered by bombs.

Biography [ ]

The incredibles [ ].

Just after Mr. Incredible saves Oliver Sansweet from committing suicide, he hears faint beeping on the other side of a wall in the building. The bomb detonates, blowing a hole in a brick wall, out of which Bomb Voyage emerges after stealing money from an unnamed business. Before Mr. Incredible can apprehend him, Buddy Pine arrives using rocket boots, calling himself 'IncrediBoy' and attempting to convince Mr. Incredible to accept him as his sidekick. He insults Buddy in French so he couldn't understand, mocking his outfit and calling him a 'little oaf'.

Then, he clips an explosive device on Buddy's cape as he flew off to get the police, which was used as a distraction to get away with the money. Mr. Incredible is forced to release Voyage in order to save Buddy, Voyage knowing of Mr. Incredible's natural instinct to save people. Therefore, he is indirectly responsible for the Super Relocation Program being passed as the bomb he placed on Buddy was later removed from his cape by Mr. Incredible and landed on a railroad bridge. The bomb detonates, destroying part of the bridge, forcing Mr. Incredible to stand in the path of the train to prevent it from going off the tracks. This results in the passengers suing Mr. Incredible, acting as the jury in his lawsuit trial, that eventually leads to the Super Relocation Act being passed, outlawing Supers .

Other media [ ]

The incredibles (video game) [ ].

In the video game based on the film, Voyage is the main villain for the first three levels of the game, and he speaks English. In the last level he is involved in, he recreates the scene in the movie, placing a bomb on Buddy Pine's cape, forcing Mr. Incredible to save him. After this, he attempts to escape in a helicopter, and Mr. Incredible defeats him by throwing six bombs at the chopper, causing it to fly out of control and presumably crash, killing Voyage.

The Incredibles: Comic Series [ ]

In the comics titled "Secrets and Lies", Bomb Voyage is recruited by Xerek to destroy the Eiffel Tower with one of his bombs, and later meets Elastigirl and Mirage in person when they arrive to investigate. When he attempts to escape, Elastigirl follows him throughout Paris and eventually shakes Xerek's location out of him. Since it has been 15 years since his appearance in the movie, Bomb Voyage has aged significantly, with a potbelly and balding hair.

Powers & Abilities [ ]

Bomb Voyage does not have any known superpowers. Instead, he uses an arsenal of small-time bombs that he carries on a pair of bandoliers that crisscross his chest.

  • Bomb Voyage's name is a pun on the French valediction, " bon voyage ", which is usually translated as “have a nice trip.”
  • Bomb Voyage made a minor cameo appearance in the 2007 Disney/Pixar movie, Ratatouille , as a street mime. This occurred during the 2nd act when Linguini and Colette are rollerskating by Notre Dame Cathedral . His name also appears on a newspaper that Colette is reading.
  • The Boom! Studios comic reveals Bomb Voyage was one of the few villains to elude the NSA completely around the time of the superhero ban, only to re-emerge in Paris years later and destroying the Eiffel Tower in the process. Working for Xerek, he destroys the rendezvous point that Mrs. Incredible and Mirage were to meet their contact at. When Bomb Voyage tries to escape, Helen takes a jetpack in pursuit and Xerek reveals himself through Bomb Voyage's communicator, which threatens to explode and take both of them down. The comic's events were later retconned by the events of Incredibles 2 film.
  • Director Brad Bird originally pitched the idea of Bomb Voyage's name. His original idea was that Bomb Voyage would be named " Bomb Pérignon ", in reference to the similarly named champagne, Dom Pérignon, but the Moët et Chandon company would not allow that kind of parody.

Original Moana Voice Actor Addresses New Live Action Actress Who Will Co-Star With Dwayne Johnson

Every confirmed star wars black series action figure releasing in 2025, star wars stunt coordinator reveals george lucas' massive last-second change to attack of the clones: "it changed on the day".

It's time to dig out those super suits and hit the theater. This summer, the Parr family returns in The Incredibles 2 , 14 years after the original film premiered in theaters and took the world by storm. Although the new movie seems as if it were a long time in the making, it will pick up where the first movie left off, although the Parrs have to deal with a few new changes. Elastigirl has gone back to work as a superhero, leaving Mr. Incredible home to raise the children and become Mr. Mom. Hilarity and villainy are sure to ensue.

The first movie received a lot of praise from fans and critics alike. It won two Academy Awards and became the first animated film to ever win the Hugo Award for Dramatic Presentation. The sequel has some big shoes to fill, but the Parr family have entertained fans before, and they are certain to entertain fans again as The Incredibles 2 tears into theaters.

For those who haven't seen the new movie - or those who want to relive the original - there are still a lot of facts that fans might not know about The Incredibles and the making of the first movie.

Here are 20 Things You Didn’t Know About The Incredibles.

20. The Incredibles is based on a true story

It might not seem like it, but the story behind The Incredibles took inspiration from real life. That doesn't mean that the movie's creator, Brad Bird, has a family of superheroes, but if you look beyond the super powers and fighting villains, the Parr family feels like a real family unit: they are more than just animated characters. This is because Bird took inspiration from his real life when he created the story of The Incredibles .

"Consciously, this was just a funny movie about superheroes," Bird said in the book To Infinity and Beoynd!: The Story of Pixar Animation Studios. "But I think that what was going on in my life definitely filtered into the movie."

That makes sense because most film writers probably unconsciously filter themselves into their movies, even if they don't realize it. It works, because that's what makes the Parrs feel so real.

Take the father, for example: he is a superhero at heart, but he must work a job in insurance to pay the bills. He can't be what he really wants to be. When Bird originally conceived the film, he was in a similar state: all he really wanted to do was animation. Fortunately, in the end, things worked out.

19. The original title was The Invincibles

During the course of making a movie, many things about that movie changes. Sometimes it's the story that gets tweaked. Sometimes it's the setting. Sometimes it's something as huge as the plot. At other times, it's just little things.

One of the hardest things about a movie isn't the making of the movie itself, though. Sometimes the hardest thing is just deciding on a title. And in the case of The Incredibles , the title had to serve as the name of the Parr family's superhero name as a group. Interestingly enough, though, they were not always The Incredibles .

In the book 1000 Facts About Animated Films, there are a few interesting facts about The Incredibles . One of those facts is that The Incredibles were almost called The Invincibles .

What's even more interesting, though, is that the codename for the movie (the names that studios call movies when they don't want anyone to know what they're working on) was simply Tights.

The Incredibles certainly seems to work better than The Invincibles or Tights , so it's a good thing that the studio decided to change the name early on. But the early title does beg a question: is the Parr family actually invincible?

18. Frozone can’t use his powers when he’s dehydrated

Here is a fact that some fans will get - at least those who watched The Incredibles movie very carefully and paid attention to little details - Frozone can't turn his powers on and off at will. He's not like Iceman in that regard.

Frozone needs one thing when using his incredible freezing powers: water.

That means if his body lacks water, his powers don't work. So if Frozone gets dehydrated, he is basically powerless. This is actually in the film, when there is a building burning down in Metroville, and Frozone and Bob show up on the scene to save people. Although most would expect Frozone to use his powers, he tells Bob that he can't because he's dehydrated. Instead, the two men work together to help evacuate the building and save all of those people inside.

This is why it's important for Frozone to drink lots of water: it isn't just for his health. It's also for his powers. And he needs to keep those powers turned up to max at all times in Metroville, where villains roam free. Because what's a superhero without his powers - and his super suit, but that's on Frozone's wife, isn't it?

17. Metroville is a combination of Metropolis and Smallville

Welcome to Metroville, the home of the Parr family, otherwise known as The Incredibles. This fictional city presumably resides somewhere in the U.S. and was once the home to many superheroes before the city forced them into retirement. It then became a quiet little city, free of villains and superheroes battling it out on the city streets and destroying public property and endangering lives. Of course, the superheroes still live there, but they adapted to quieter lives, sort of like the Parrs. As any fan of The Incredibles knows, though, things didn't stay quiet in Metroville forever because villains never like to live by the rules.

Think about the name of the city, though: Metroville. If it seems somehow familiar, it is.

The city's name comes from two famous cities known to comic book fans - especially Superman fans.

The first city is Metropolis, the city that is known for one of the most popular superheroes of all time: Superman. But before Superman was a superhero, he was Clark Kent and he lived in Smallville. This is where the "ville" part of Metroville comes into play.

It's likely that Bird wanted to honor a favorite superhero, Superman, in some way with his own superhero film. Mission accomplished.

16. Lily Tomlin was the first choice for Edna Mode, but the director took the role

"No capes!" Every fan of The Incredibles will always hear those two words in the infamous voice of Edna Mode, the fashion designer of Metroville who is responsible for designing almost all the superhero wear of that city. And although not everyone realizes it, her voice is actually that of Brad Bird, the film's creator and director. But before Bird took over the role, there were other actresses interested in it. Pixar reached out to several, including comedian Lily Tomlin .

Tomlin gained her claim to fame on Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In , but also has a score of theatre roles under her belt, as well as movies. She created some of the most iconic sketch comedy characters of all time on Laugh-In, including the condescending telephone operator Ernestine, the five-year-old Edith Anne, and the prudish Mrs. Earborne.

One might think this would make Tomlin the perfect voice for Edna Mode, which is why Pixar approached her about it.

After Brad Bird recorded early "temp" tracks for the character, Tomlin heard them and insisted that he was the only person who was right for the role.

She was right. Bird turned Edna Mode into one of the most quoted characters in animation history.

15. The villain was based on the director

It's no secret that many animators model their characters from real people. Sometimes, they actually bring in models or study voice actors' features to get characters to look just a certain way. This guarantees that those characters will come across well onscreen. Sometimes, it is pretty obvious when animators do this, although sometimes, the person who a character gets based on is completely clueless until later.

This was the case with Brad Bird. The schedule and deadlines for getting The Incredibles to theaters on time meant that animators had to work some long hours under Bird. The animators decided to take it out on him in the only way they knew how.

Let's look at Syndrome: the villain has very distinctive physical features. He also looks nothing like his voice actor Jason Lee. If you look at a photo of Bird and then look at Syndrome, you start to see the similarities: Syndrome is almost a caricature of Bird.

This was intentional, although Bird had no idea that his animators planned it. In an NPR segment called Not My Job , Bird answered a question about it: "Yeah, but of course, with me being an idiot, I didn't notice this until it was well into production," he said. "I don't think I look like that, but everybody was sort of snickering behind my back."

14. The voice of Dash had to run laps while recording

Meet Dash Parr, the younger brother of Violet and the older brother of Jack-Jack. Dash is always on the go, but that's probably because he has powers that are similar to the Flash: he can run at incredible speeds. He can run so fast that he can even run on top of water, as seen in The Incredibles.

In the first movie, Dash's voice actor was a 10-year-old boy named Spencer Fox. Considering that Dash is always running around, he's often out of breath. Brad Bird wanted it to sound authentic, so the story is that he made Fox run laps around the studio to capture that particular quality. Fans can't deny that it sounds good in the film.

Unfortunately, Dash had to get a new voice actor with The Incredibles 2 , because Fox went through puberty and his voice got a lot lower. That's what happens when a studio waits 14 years to make a sequel that features child actors. However, the new Dash actor, Huckleberry "Huck" Milner sounds a lot like Fox, so fans will have to wonder if he, too, had to run laps around the studio to get that classic Dash out of breath quality.

Fox is now a guitarist in an indie banned called Charly Bliss.

13. The 14-year gap between the first movie and its sequel is the longest in Disney/Pixar history

When it comes to sequels, the general rule of thumb is that you want to get the sequel out as soon as possible, because moviegoers are fickle and have a tendency to forget about franchises if you make them wait a long time for them. That being the case, though, it has been 14 years since the first movie hit the screens. And it's just now that we're getting a sequel in The Incredibles 2.

That is an incredibly long wait, and it actually set a record for Pixar films. It's the longest time between an original film and its sequel in Pixar's history.

It doesn't seem like The Incredibles have lost any fans in that amount of time.

In fact, it seems like fans are even more excited about the sequel than ever.

The good news is that it seems that the sequel, in spite of the gap, is true to the original movie, which is something fans might concern themselves with. It also seems like a good idea that the sequel actually picks up right where the first movie left off, in spite of the gap in real world time. Most fans will agree that this is a sequel that was worth waiting for.

12. It was the first Pixar movie with humans main characters

Humans are one of the hardest things to animate. That means that it costs a lot more to make digitally animated movies about humans than making animated movies about animals. This would explain why The Incredibles is the first Pixar movie to focus almost entirely on human beings.

Bird acknowledged the difficulty of making such a movie: "We had a story that was bigger and more complicated than anything. It was longer [121 minutes], it had four times the number of locations and all of the characters were humans, and that’s considered the hardest thing to do," he said in an interview with Awn . "And they change their costumes and they age and their bodies change. And they have hair and hair under water and hair blowing through the wind… It’s just insanity."

But he and his team managed despite the difficulty.

"We got it done within the same kinds of parameters of all the other Pixar films, with 10 times the resources," Bird said in the interview with Awn . "We kept it within the ballpark budget of the others by building stuff specifically to camera. You adhere to a plan so you can stretch every little cent to its furthest."

11. The character powers are based on their personalities

This probably isn't a huge secret to anyone who has watched The Incredibles more than once, but for those who might not realize it, each character in the world of the movie has powers related to their personality.

Think about it: Helen, aka Elastigirl, is one of the most flexible people in the film, and that's not referring to her superpower of being super bendy and stretchy. She's a mother who juggles handling all of her household duties while taking care of children and keeping them safe and protected. Then there's Mr. Incredible, aka Bob, who is the breadwinner of the family (although that changes in The Incredibles 2 ), the strong and brave head of the family, who has super strength.

As far as the children go, Violet is the teenager, which makes sense, because all she really wants is for everyone to leave her alone: she has powers of invisibility. Dash is her younger brother, who talks really fast and has the attention span of a gnat. Iit only makes sense that his power is super speed.

Finally, there is Jack-Jack, the youngest Parr, whose powers are not quite known yet, because he is still a toddler: a world of possibilities is still open to him.

10. The first Pixar movie rated above G

When one thinks of Disney and Pixar, one usually thinks of G-rated movies, solely intended for young children. But then Pixar broke the mold with The Incredibles , which became the first Pixar movie to receive a PG rating.

With many Disney and Pixar movies, there are some jokes and lines that go completely over kids' heads, but that are meant for the adults watching the movies with them.

In The Incredibles , there are a few things that seemed more mature than a typical G-rated movie. For example, Helen worries about Bob having an affair. Syndrome mentions something about getting busy in a line about Helen and Bob. Helen and Bob constantly indulge in PDA.

There are also some scenes of fighting in the film, although nothing gets too bloody. There is even a scene where Mr. Incredible saves a man from taking his own life. It is a superhero movie, after all, so some violence is necessary.

Finally, to top everything off, Edna Mode is a chain smoker. She always has a cigarette dangling from her fingertips. There are even a few alcohol references in the movie.

All of these things might seem innocuous by themselves, but when combined, they are why The Incredibles got a PG rating.

9. There is a Die Hard reference in the first movie

Pixar movies have a lot of little references that will probably go over kids' heads but that adults will love. This includes Easter eggs to other and even more mature movies that parents are all too familiar with. The Incredibles does this in one scene by referencing one of the Die Hard movies, Die Hard with a Vengeance .

Why does this reference even exist? It's because Samuel L. Jackson is in both movies.

In Die Hard with a Vengeance , Jackson played Zeus Carver, a shop owner who saves John McClane (Bruce Willis) from one of the bombs planted by the evil Simon (Jeremy Irons). There is a scene in The Incredibles where the police ask Frozone to freeze that is nearly identical to a similar scene in Die Hard with a Vengeance .

In The Incredibles , Frozone has a gun pointed at him, but explains that he just needs to get a drink of water and moves slowly towards the water fountain (he needs water for his powers). In Die Hard with a Vengeance , the scene is almost the same, except that Zeus is slowly explaining that he needs to answer a pay phone that rings. The similarities between these scenes is intentional.

8. It forced Fantastic Four to change to compete

The making of an animated movie like The Incredibles should not impact the making of any other movie, specifically a live-action film. But The Incredibles actually affected the making of the 2005 Fantastic Four movie that starred Chris Evans, Ioan Gruffudd, Jessica Alba, Michael Chiklis and Julian McMahon.

According to Rotten Tomatoes , Cinescope reported that the CGI of The Incredibles was so good, particularly with the way that Elastigirl bent, stretched and moved, that it put pressure on the Fantastic Four filmmaking team to make their CGI equally as good. Fantastic Four especially needed its final battle scene to look better because it was ridiculous that an animated movie would outdo it.

That change ended up costing Fox an additional $20 million just on extra special effects.

They probably should have just asked Bird to help them do it better on a budget.

Reports also suggest that there were changes made to the Fantastic Four script, too, to separate it from The Incredibles . In the end, though, moviegoing audiences embraced The Incredibles far more than they embraced the Fantastic Four . The Incredibles fans waited 14 years for a sequel, while Fantastic Four limped to a finish with Rise of the Silver Surfer .

7. The Ratatouille connection

Metroville is full of villains. You've got the big name villains, such as Syndrome, but there are also a lot of more small-time villains, such as Bomb Voyage, who is a recurring villain throughout Mr. Incredible's time as a superhero.

Bomb Voyage was a mime-faced Frenchman who taunted Mr. Incredible every chance he could get. He eventually escaped the clutches of Mr. Incredible, though, and disappeared into oblivion.

Or did he? Because Bomb Voyage also appears in a later Pixar movie, Ratatouille .

It seems that his days of villainy are over and he decided on a career as a street mime in Paris.

As Ratatouille takes place 15 years after his last meeting with Mr. Incredible, Bomb Voyage looks older and a lot worse for the wear: he appears in Ratatouille as a balding pot-bellied man.

Although Bomb Voyage's name comes from a funny take on the French phrase, Bon Voyage, he originally had the moniker of Bomb Perignon , as a take on the famous champagne. However, the real Dom Perignon's owner, Moet and Chandon, would not agree to let Pixar use the Perignon name in the movie. So Bomb Perignon became Bomb Voyage. Either way, it's still funny.

6. The inspiration behind Edna Mode

One of the most iconic characters in The Incredibles that isn't a member of the Parr family is Edna Mode, the fashion designer most known for her abhorrence of superheroes who wear capes. Her certain type of style, voice, and attitude has everyone trying to guess exactly who her inspiration was, and there are a lot of theories about that.

Some believe that Edna is based on a real life fashion designer named Edith Head, who went on to work on some of the biggest movies during Hollywood's golden age, including The Emperor Waltz (which earned her an Academy Award nomination). Edna look a lot like Head, after all. There's also actress Linda Hunt, though, who also resembles Edna. Some speculate that the character is based on Vogue editor Anna Wintour, which is entirely believable. Others think that Edna is actually actress Lotte Lenya. There is even talk that she is based on fashion designer Isaac Mizrahi.

The Incredibles 2 will probably increase the speculation behind Edna's signature style and behavior.

So who is it? The team behind The Incredibles won't say. All that they offer is that they love the attitude that comes with the big glasses and flamboyant personality.

5. Two stars went on to live-action superhero movies

One of the best parts of The Incredibles for adults is the voice acting of Samuel L. Jackson behind Frozone. Not just anyone could portray a character like that, after all. A lot of that had to do with Bird insisting that Jackson was just so cool that the film had to have him.

Samuel L. Jackson is more than just the Snakes on a Plane guy. He went on to star in the Marvel universe as director of S.H.I.E.L.D., Nick Fury. That makes Jackson an official part of the Marvel cinematic universe. He will next appear in a Marvel movie with Captain Marvel , where he will reprise a younger version of Fury.

Jackson isn't the only one who went on to become part of a superhero universe. The voice of Helen Parr, aka Elastigirl, Holly Hunter also became part of comic book-inspired world. She went on to portray Senator Finch in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice . Sure, she already had a lot of acting credits under her belt before taking on Elastigirl, but it's her role in the superhero movies that fans will remember her for most.

These two Incredibles actors went on to become part of their own superhero dynasties.

4. The movie is not inspired by Ayn Rand

For some bizarre reason, there are a lot of folks who believe that The Incredibles takes inspiration of Ayn Rand, and there are those who have even gone so far as to call it Ayn Rand propaganda.

Yes, there are people who think an animated movie is propaganda for a specific political agenda outlined in a series of fictional novels. One movie critic even called it "a barely disguised libertarian parable about the natural superiority of some individuals over others."

There is just one problem with these accusations: they simply are not true . Brad Bird isn't a libertarian.

Whenever asked about the similarities of his work to Rand, Bird refers to them as "ridiculous."

Not only that, but anyone who follows his Twitter feed can see that he has more centrist political ideas. Although some people like to see political ideas where they don't actually exist, there are still those who believe that Bird is a huge Rand fan and that every one of his movies includes her libertarian ideas.

The truth is that they don't. Yes, Bird's movies are creative, and yes, The Incredibles is one of his most creative works. But in no way does it have anything to do with Rand.

3. DC already had a character called Elasti-Girl

Helen Parr is one of the main characters of The Incredibles . She is not just a super mom, though. She is also a superhero known as Elasti-girl, and she takes on an even bigger role in The Incredibles 2 . In fact, part of the new movie's plot revolves around her going back to work as a superhero and Bob staying home to raise the kids.

Believe it or not, there is another Elasti-Girl - notice the hyphen in the name. That Elasti-Girl actually belongs to DC comics (which some might call Disney/Pixar's rival as the Disney also owns Marvel). That Elasti-Girl has an alterego named Rita Farr. Yes, it's very close to Disney's Elastigirl's last name.

Like the Pixar version, DC's Elasti-Girl can expand and stretch her body.

Considering how similar the characters are, it's kind of surprising that no one seems bothered by it, especially when DC's character dates back to 1963, long before Bird ever had the idea for The Incredibles.

So what gives? Why isn't DC Comics throwing a fit? DC gave Pixar the rights to use that name, but only for the movie. That's why merchandising for Helen always has her listed as Mrs. Incredible.

2. It's the only Pixar movie without the Pizza Planet truck

In Toy Story , there is a restaurant known as Pizza Planet. It features predominantly throughout the movie. That restaurant also delivers and has a signature yellow truck that gets seen a lot in the Toy Story movies.

That truck appears in a lot of other Pixar movies, too. In fact, it's one of those Easter eggs that most fans can count on in a new Pixar movie. Up until The Incredibles came out in theaters, the truck appeared in every single movie Pixar made after Toy Story . Yet, for some reason, it's missing from The Incredibles , making that movie the first one without the delivery truck.

The omission of the vehicle wasn't completely deliberate, however.

"Oh, is that right?” Bird said to The Huffington Post when asked about it. “I don’t know. I was busy making the movie. I didn’t think about the Pizza Planet, so I would not be surprised if it was not in there and I would not be surprised if somebody got it in there when they were building the sets."

Turns out that someone did not build it into the set, and so the Pizza Planet truck does not appear anywhere in The Incredibles .

1. Brad Bird was originally told the first movie was too expensive to make

It was a long road bringing the first movie to the big screen. Bird first thought up the idea for The Incredibles 12 years before it ever came to fruition. It didn't even come up at Pixar until the year 2000. Even then, there were some big obstacles to get across to make the movie feasible.

In an interview, Bird talked about the long and arduous process of bringing the movie to life. For example, bringing humans to life in animation is way more difficult than animating animals.

"We were told at the beginning of it by some people here that it was an unmakable movie," he told IGN . "Just way too complicated, too many characters, too many costume changes, too many effects, too many locations, too many sets. If we had done the humans the way Pixar had done them prior to this, it would have taken four years just to build the characters."

Fortunately, Bird and his team started to think outside the box to make the movie happen: "So we had to invent a whole new way to build them. We were told it would take ten years and cost a gazillion dollars by people here who are very smart."

Biography [ ]

The incredibles [ ].

Bomb Voyage is a recurring enemy of Mr. Incredible as he is introduced. He is a mime-like criminal who speaks French, although it was hinted that he knew English as well, as he said "IncrediBoy" in its English wording rather than a French translation of the name.

When he is first introduced, Bomb Voyage crashes through a brick wall after stealing money. Just before Mr. Incredible could fight Bomb Voyage, a young  Buddy  (as "IncrediBoy," Mr. Incredible's unofficial sidekick) arrived and tried to appeal to Mr. Incredible that he would be a worthy sidekick (and that he invented new rocket boots, which make him get around so fast). Mr. Incredible rejects Buddy, and Bomb Voyage took advantage of the distraction to aid his escape. As Buddy flew off to get the police, Bomb Voyage put a bomb on his cape (unbeknownst to him), forcing Mr. Incredible to release Bomb Voyage in order to save Buddy.

Bomb Voyage successfully made a getaway, and it is presumed that he remained at large for the remainder of the film. Despite his minor role, Voyage's actions left a major impact on the film and its sequel, as he was partially responsible for the Anti-Super Legislation Act being enacted since the bomb he placed on Buddy Pine was later dislodged from his cape and destroyed a railroad track, leading to Mr. Incredible stopping a train and getting sued by the injured passengers, who acted as the jury in his lawsuit trial, resulting in the act being passed.

Video Game Adaptation [ ]

In the video game version, Voyage is the main villain for the first three levels of the game and he speaks English. In the third level he is involved in, he recreates the scene in the movie, throwing a bomb in Buddy Pine's cape, forcing Mr. Incredible to save him. After this, he attempts to escape in a helicopter, and Mr. Incredible defeats him by throwing six bombs at him, causing it to fly out of control and presumably crash, killing Voyage.

Comic Book Series [ ]

Bomb Voyage’s defeat in the comic book version of The Incredibles .

In the comic series, Bomb Voyage is recruited by Xerek to make the Eiffel Tower vanish with one of his bombs, and later meets Elastigirl and Mirage in person when they arrive to investigate, when he attempts to escape, Elastigirl follows him throughout Paris and eventually shakes Xerek's location out of him. Since it has been 15 years since his appearance in the movie, Bomb Voyage has aged significantly, with a potbelly and balding hair.

Personality [ ]

Bomb Voyage is an obviously evil terrorist who doesn't care about bombing buildings or killing someone who gets in his way. He's likely of French origin, all of his speech being in French language. He wasn't above killing a young child, as shown when he puts a bomb on Buddy's cape, the latter being unaware of that. He's also an unpleasant person, mocking IncrediBoy's cape and mocking him when he shows up.

Enemies [ ]

  • Mr. Incredible - Old foe and Attempted Captor
  • Buddy Pine † - Attempted Victim
  • Brad Bird originally pitched the idea of Bomb Voyage's name. His original idea was that Bomb Voyage would be named " Bomb Pérignon " in reference to the similarly named champagne, Dom Pérignon, but the Moët et Chandon company would not allow that kind of parody.
  • Later on in the film, when Syndrome tells Mr. Incredible that he became evil due to the latter rejecting his help the night Mr. Incredible faced Bomb Voyage, Bomb Voyage is noticeably absent from the scene despite that Mr. Incredible was holding him when he told Buddy to fly home. This was most likely done to emphasize Syndrome's narcissism as he figured Mr. Incredible was just being a jerk rather than the fact Mr. Incredible was actually busy trying to apprehend Bomb Voyage.
  • Bomb Voyage makes a cameo appearance in Ratatouille as a mime. His first crime scene was in the newspaper Collete reads where they get about the review of the soup.
  • Bomb Voyage's name is a pun to the French phrase "Bon Voyage", meaning "have a nice trip" or "safe journey".
  • He and The Underminer are the only villains in the film series to succeed in their plan in spite of both being defeated in the non-canonical comics and the video game adaptations. This makes both villains to make successful getaways while being chased by their enemies.

Background [ ]

The Incredibles

Bomb Voyage is a recurring enemy of Mr. Incredible as he is introduced. He is a mime-like criminal who speaks French, although it was hinted that he knew English as well.

When he is first introduced, Bomb Voyage crashes through a brick wall after stealing money. Just before Mr. Incredible could fight Bomb Voyage, a young Buddy (as "IncrediBoy", Mr. Incredible's so-called sidekick) arrived and tried to appeal to Mr. Incredible that he would be a worthy sidekick for Mr. Incredible (and that he invented new rocket boots, which make him get around so fast). Mr. Incredible then told Buddy, "Fly home, Buddy. I work alone." Bomb Voyage took advantage of the distraction to aid his escape. As Buddy flew off to get the police, Bomb Voyage put a bomb on Buddy's cape (unbeknownst to Buddy), forcing Mr. Incredible to release Bomb Voyage in order to save Buddy. Bomb Voyage was presumably aware of Mr. Incredible's persona in that in a tight situation, he would choose saving people over apprehending criminals.

Bomb Voyage successfully made a getaway, and it is presumed that he remained at large for the remainder of the film. He was also partially responsible for the Anti-Super Legislation Act being enacted, as the bomb he placed on Buddy Pine was later dislodged from his cape due to Mr. Incredible and managed to land and detonate on a railroad track, which forced Mr. Incredible to stand in the path of the train to prevent it from going through the newly made hole in the tracks, which resulted in the passengers suing Mr. Incredible, and acting as the jury in his lawsuit trial, that eventually led to it being passed.

It is unknown what became of him afterwards, and he is presumably at large.

Quotes 

Mr. Incredible : I was wrong to treat you that way. I'm sorry...

Syndrome : See? Now you respect me, because I'm a threat. That's the way it works. Turns out there are lots of people, whole countries, that want respect, and will pay through the nose to get it. How do you think I got rich? I invented weapons, and now I have a weapon that only I can defeat, and when I unleash it...

[Mr. Incredible throws a log at Syndrome, who dodges it and traps Mr. Incredible with his zero-point energy ray] 

Syndrome : Oh, ho ho! You sly dog! You got me monologuing! I can't believe it...

[to Mr. Incredible] 

Syndrome : Oh, no. Elastigirl? You married Elastigirl? Ho, ho, ho...

[sees the kids] 

Syndrome : Oh - and got biz-zay! It's a whole family of supers! Looks like I hit the jackpot! Oh, this is just too good!

Syndrome : It's finally ready! You know, I went through quite a few supers to make it worthy to fight you, but man, it wasn't good enough! After you trashed the last one, I had to make some major modifications. Sure, it was difficult, but you are worth it. I mean, after all... I am your biggest fan.

Mr. Incredible : [recognizing that last line]  Buddy?

Syndrome : My name is not Buddy! And it's not Incrediboy, either. That ship has sailed. All I wanted was to help you. I only wanted to help, and what do you say to me?

Mr. Incredible : [Flashback]  Fly home, Buddy. I work alone.

Syndrome : It tore me apart. But I learned an important lesson. You can't count on anyone, especially your heroes.

Syndrome : [watching live news footage of the Omnidroid]  Huh? Huh? Oh, come on! You gotta admit, this is cool! Just like a movie: the robot will emerge dramatically, do some damage, throw some screaming people. And just when all hope is lost? Syndrome will save the day! I'll be a bigger hero than you ever were.

Mr. Incredible : You mean you killed off real heroes so that you could *pretend* to be one?

Syndrome : Oh, I'm real. Real enough to defeat *you*! And I did it without your precious gifts, your oh-so-special powers. I'll give them heroics. I'll give them the most spectacular heroics anyone's ever seen! And when I'm old and I've had my fun, I'll sell my inventions so that everyone can be superheroes. *Everyone* can be super! And when everyone's super...

[laughs maniacally] 

Syndrome : ...*no one* will be.

[Helen's plane is targeted by Syndrome's missiles] 

Elastigirl : India-Golf-Niner-Niner transmitting in the blind guard, disengage, repeat, *disengage*.

[she releases anti-missile devices, begins evasive maneuvers] 

Elastigirl : Disengage, repeat, *disengage*!

Mr. Incredible : No! Call off the missiles, I'll do anything!

Syndrome : Too late! Fifteen years too late...

Elastigirl : Friendlies, at two-zero miles south-southwest of your position, angels ten, track east, disengage, over! Vi! You have to put a force field around the plane!

Violet : But you said we weren't supposed to use our powers!

Elastigirl : I know what I said! Listen to what I'm saying *now*! Disengage, repeat, *disengage*!

[missiles close in] 

Dash : [frightened]  Mom?

Elastigirl : *Violet*! Mayday, mayday, India-Golf-Niner-Niner is buddy spiked! Abort, abort, there are children aboard, say again, there are children aboard this plane!

Mr. Incredible : NO!

Elastigirl : [shouts]  Put a field around us, *now*!

Violet : [frightened]  But I've never done one that big before...!

Elastigirl : Violet, do it NOW! Abort, abort, abort!

[the missiles close in, Violet tries to create a force field but can't] 

Elastigirl : Abort abort abort!

[the missiles hit; Helen envelopes the children as the plane explodes around them] 

Mr. Incredible : Bomb Voyage.

Bomb Voyage : Monsieur Incroyable!

[Subtitles: Mr. Incredible...!] 

Buddy : And IncrediBoy!

Bomb Voyage : [not French, but with an accent]  IncrediBoy?

Buddy : Hey, hey! Aren't you curious about how I get around so fast? See? I have these rocket boots! They're made from...

Mr. Incredible : [cuts him off]  Go home, Buddy.

Buddy : What?

Mr. Incredible : Now.

Bomb Voyage : Petit naïf libe!

[Subtitles: Little oaf...!] 

Buddy : Can we talk?

[pulls Mr. Incredible off to the side] 

Buddy : You always, always say "Be true to yourself," but you never say which part of yourself to be true to! Well, I finally figured out who I am: I am your ward. IncrediBoy!

Mr. Incredible : And now, you have officially carried it too far, Buddy.

[grabs Bomb Voyage, who yells in surprise] 

Buddy : This is because I don't have powers, isn't it? Well, not every superhero has powers, you know. You can be super without them. I invented these.

[points to his rocket boots] 

Buddy : I can fly! Can you fly?

Mr. Incredible : Fly home, Buddy. I work alone.

Bomb Voyage : Et ton tenue est complètement ridicule!

[Subtitles: And your outfit is totally ridiculous!] 

Buddy : Can you just give me one chance? Look, I'll show you, I'll get the police!

[Buddy runs off and Bomb Voyage puts the bomb on the cape] 

Mr. Incredible : Buddy, no!

Buddy : It only take a second, really.

Mr. Incredible : No, STOP!

[He began to stop Buddy] 

Mr. Incredible : There's a bomb!

Buddy : Let go, you're wrecking my flight pattern.

Buddy : I can do this if you lets go!

Mr. Incredible : Will you just...?

Mr. Incredible : I'm trying to help! Stop!

Buddy : Let go of my cape!

[Mr. Incredible removes the bomb from the cape] 

Mirage : He's not weak, you know.

Syndrome : What?

Mirage : Valuing life is not weakness.

Syndrome : Oh, hey, look, look, if you're talking about what happened in the containment unit, I had everything under control.

Mirage : And disregarding it is not strength.

Syndrome : Look, I called his bluff, sweetheart, that's all. I knew he wouldn't have it in him to actually...

Mirage : [through her teeth]  Next time you gamble, bet *your own* life!

Syndrome : You, sir, truly are Mr. Incredible. You know, I was right to idolize you? I always knew you were tough, but tricking the probe by hiding under the bones of another super? Oh, MAN! I'm still geeking out about it!

[sigh] 

Syndrome : And then you just had to go and ruin the ride. I mean, Mr. Incredible calling for help?

[Mocking voice] 

Syndrome : Help me! Help me! Lame, lame, lame, lame, *lame*!

Syndrome : [Slams Mr. Incredible against the ground]  Am I good enough now?

[Slams him again] 

Syndrome : Who's super now? I'm Syndrome, your nemesis and...

[inadvertently throws Mr. Incredible out of sight] 

Syndrome : Oh, brilliant.

[the Incredibles enter their house to find Syndrome holding Jack-Jack. Syndrome paralyses them with his zero point energy] 

Syndrome : Shhh. The baby's sleeping.

[Syndrome gets up with Jack-Jack still in his arms, preparing to leave] 

Syndrome : You took away my future. I'm simply returning the favor. Oh, don't worry. I'll be a good mentor: supportive, encouraging...

[glares at Mr. Incredible] 

Syndrome : Everything you *weren't*. And in time, who knows? He might make a good sidekick.

Syndrome : [about his newest Omnidroid]  It's bigger. It's badder. Ladies and gentlemen, it's too much for Mr. Incredible!

[Watching news reports about his Omnidroids] 

Syndrome : Oh, come on! You gotta admit this is cool! Just like a movie! The robot will emerge dramatically, do some damage, throw some screaming people, and just when all hope is lost, *Syndrome* will save the day! I'll be a bigger hero than you ever were!

Syndrome : Whoa, whoa, whoa. Time out!

Syndrome : [after the plane is shot down]  Oh, you'll get over it. I seem to recall you prefer to..."work alone."

[laughs maniacally; Mr. Incredible tries to catch him, but Mirage pushes Syndrome out of the way and is captured] 

Mr. Incredible : Release me, now!

Syndrome : Or what?

Mr. Incredible : I'll crush her.

Syndrome : That sounds a little dark for you. Eh, go ahead.

[Mirage gasps] 

Mr. Incredible : It'll be easy, like breaking a toothpick.

Syndrome : [chuckles]  Show me.

[after a tense few moments, Mr. Incredible lets go of Mirage] 

Syndrome : I knew you couldn't do it. Even when you have nothing to lose! You're weak! And I've outgrown you.

Syndrome : This isn't the end of it! I will get your son eventually! I will get your son!

Syndrome : [during his fixed fight with the Omnidroid]  Somebody needs to teach this hunk of metal... a few manners!

Syndrome : Whoa, whoa, whoa! Hey, time out! What have we here? Matching uniforms? Oh, no! Elastigirl?

[laughs] 

Syndrome : You married Elastigirl? Whoa! And got busy! It's a whole family of supers! Looks like I've hit the jackpot! Oh, this is just too good!

Mr. Incredible : No, you're that kid from the fan club. Brophy... Brody... Buddy! Buddy...

Buddy : My name is IncrediBoy.

Mr. Incredible : Look, I've been nice, I've stood for photos, signed every scrap of paper you pushed at me, but this...

Buddy : Oh, no, no, you don't have to worry about training me! I know all your moves, your crime-fighting style, favorite catchphrases, everything! I'm your number one fan!

[Mr. Incredible ejects him from the car, and speeds off] 

[Mr. Incredible is carrying Buddy by the arm to the police] 

Mr. Incredible : [to the officers]  Take this one home. And make sure his mother knows what he's been doing.

Buddy : [to Mr. Incredible]  I can help you. You're making a mist...

[the second policeman shoves Buddy in the police car] 

Mr. Incredible : The injured jumper. You sent paramedics?

Police Officer #1 : They've already picked him up.

Mr. Incredible : The blast in that building was caused by Bomb Voyage who I caught in the act of robbing the vault. Now, we might be able to nab him if we set up a perimeter.

Police Officer #2 : [to Mr. Incredible]  You mean he got away?

Mr. Incredible : Well, yeah.

[pointing to Buddy Pine in the police car] 

Mr. Incredible : Skippy here made sure of that.

Buddy : IncrediBoy!

Mr. Incredible : You're not affiliated with me!

[looks at his watch, clicking on a button so his car auto drives itself to pick him up] 

Mr. Incredible : Holy smokes I'm late. Uh, listen I got to be somewhere.

Police Officer #1 : What about Bomb Voyage?

[Mr. Incredible gets in his car] 

Mr. Incredible : Any other night, I'd go after him myself. But I really gotta go. But don't worry! We'll get him! Eventually!

This submission is currently being researched & evaluated!

You can help confirm this entry by contributing facts, media, and other evidence of notability and mutation.

Bomb Voyage Cosplayer at FWA 2024 refers to a controversy surrounding X / Twitter user @Superb__Pedro who attended Furry Weekend Atlanta 2024 dressed as Bomb Voyage from The Incredibles . Footage of Pedro's cosplay went viral online throughout the convention dates, including photos and videos of Pedro wielding a prop firearm (specifically an M16A2 with an M203 grenade launcher). Some X users, including people who attended the convention, expressed concerns over the mock gun being allowed into the convention and voiced opinions that the inclusion of the fake weapon was in poor taste and inappropriate. Pedro made a statement amid the controversy reiterating that the gun was a prop, had an orange tip, was approved by convention staff and was borrowed from another cosplayer.

Between May 9th and 12th, 2024, the furry convention Furry Weekend Atlanta 2024 took place at the Marriott Marquis in Atlanta, Georgia. X user @Superb__Pedro attended the convention in Bomb Voyage cosplay, a costume he has gained viral attention for in the past. [1]

Images and videos of Pedro in the cosplay appeared on X as early as May 10th, including images of Pedro holding prop guns (examples shown below). [2] [3]

The images inspired backlash from some X users, including furries, who expressed that they found the addition of the fake gun to the cosplay "in poor taste" and "inappropriate."

On May 13th, X [5] user @VVIXUNE posted, "If I saw this from a distance at a furry con I genuinely think I'd have a panic attack idk why this is something anyone thought was appropriate," garnering over 300 likes in a day.

On the same day, X [6] user @Floofocalypse posted, "It's inappropriate to be running around in crowded spaces with realistic guns, especially pointing them at people.

Superb__Pedro's Response

On May 14th, 2024, X [9] user @Superb__Pedro, the cosplayer, quote-reposted @LinkofSunshine's post claiming he was holding an "unmarked prop gun." In the post, which garnered over 4,500 likes in under a day, he apologized for pointing the gun at people and for unintentionally scaring people, but cleared up some misconceptions about the cosplay and gun, writing:

1. The “weapon” I am holding is a prop which is marked with an orange tip and ribbon. The orange tip was very visible to everyone in the atrium, it's just difficult to see through the pictures. 2. The prop was cleared as okay to use by the convention staff and Atlanta police. 3. The prop is not mine. It was borrowed from another cosplayer for a brief period. It’s honestly sad how much attention this is getting. There are far more important things to focus criticism on at conventions: SA, inappropriate behavior, inappropriate attire in public places, and the list goes on. I do apologize for pointing the gun at people as I realize that was inappropriate of me to do that. I did not intend to scare or threaten anyone.

Superb*Pedro ✪ @Superb__Pedro As the cosplayer of Bomb Voyage in these photos and this video, I have a few things to say: 1. The "weapon" I am holding is a prop which is marked with an orange tip and ribbon. The orange tip was very visible to everyone in the atrium, it's just difficult to see through the pictures. 2. The prop was cleared as okay to use by the convention staff and Atlanta police. 3. The prop is not mine. It was borrowed from another cosplayer for a brief period. It's honestly sad how much attention this is getting. There are far more important things to focus criticism on at conventions: Sexual assault, inappropriate behavior, inappropriate attire in public places, illegal substance abuse, and the list goes on. I do apologize for pointing the gun at people as I realize that was inappropriate of me to do that. I did not intend to scare or threaten anyone.

Been to a dozen cons, people bring prop weapons all the time.

You're gonna have atleast one Halo cosplayer, Metal Gear cosplayers, and don't get me started on TF2. How are you going to hold the TF2 photoshoot if no one is allowed to bring their prop weapons.

24 details you probably missed in 'Ratatouille'

  • Even fans who've seen "Ratatouille" dozens of times may have missed these sneaky details .
  • Like many Pixar films , a lot of detail went into animating characters' reflections and features.
  • Disney fans can spot hidden Mickeys and classic Pixar Easter eggs in "Ratatouille." 

Chef Gusteau is featured in real magazines with realistic cover details.

bomb voyage real name

The intro of the movie tells viewers about Chef Gusteau's fame and motto, "Anyone can cook."

It also shows several magazines with Gusteau on the cover.

The animated magazines feature real-world titles, like Cuisine at Home and Bon Appétit, and have an incredible amount of detail, including headlines and barcodes with prices.

Anton Ego's nickname and office reference death in several ways.

bomb voyage real name

Food critic Anton Ego is first shown on the TV screen during the opening scenes of the film. 

He's introduced alongside his nickname, "The Grim Eater," a play on the grim reaper because a bad review from him can "kill" a restaurant.

This death theme is reinforced by his coffin-shaped office and skull-adorned typewriter. 

Furniture in the movie is detailed to show age, wear, and claw marks.

bomb voyage real name

The furniture and home interiors shown throughout the movie are animated with great attention to detail.

When Remy and Emile are in the old woman's kitchen, both the spice rack that Remy looks through and the counter that Emile stands on have plenty of rat-claw scratches and fade marks .

All of the furniture in the woman's house is older and more worn than the brighter, unmarked pieces shown later on — such as the furniture in Skinner's office.

The rats make tables and boats out of small, everyday objects.

bomb voyage real name

The rats are very resourceful. They make the tools and furniture they need throughout the film out of kitchen supplies and objects they find in the trash.

When the rats flee in boats at the beginning of the movie, each one is made from different pieces of trash, such as broken barrels. 

Later on, when the rats are dining together, their furniture is made out of other repurposed objects. The rats sit on upside-down teacups at tables made from upside-down ramekins, eat off of buttons, and use pins as utensils. 

Remy reads about the different kitchen-staff roles a few scenes before describing them to viewers.

bomb voyage real name

When Remy finds Gusteau's restaurant, he looks down at the kitchen through a window and explains each chef's title and responsibilities.

Some viewers may wonder how Remy knows all this information, but we actually saw him learn it.

Just a few scenes earlier, Remy was shown studying the pages of Gusteau's book that explain the different roles of the kitchen staff.

While running through a building, Remy passes two interesting scenes.

bomb voyage real name

When Remy runs through a building, he sees glimpses of rooms through vents and floorboards.

At one point, he passes a man painting a still life of a nude woman — even though there's only a bowl of fruit in front of him.

Moments later, he races by a couple having a heated argument, during which a woman is pointing a gun at a man moments before they start kissing. 

He also encounters a then-unknown Pixar dog as he runs through the building.

bomb voyage real name

In the same sequence where Remy is running through the apartment building, the rat gets spooked by the shadow and bark of a dog before darting through a hole in the wall.

The dog's shape is remarkably similar to Doug from Pixar's "Up" (2009), even though the film didn't come out until two years after "Ratatouille." 

The studio famously works on its animated films for years, so it's possible that the creators stuck the Easter egg in before fans even knew to look for it. 

Characters have accurate reflections and shadows throughout the movie.

bomb voyage real name

Throughout the movie, the characters' reflections are accurately animated  in windows, metal pots, water, and other surfaces. 

For example, Remy's reflection is visible in the window of Gusteau's restaurant and Linguini's can be seen in one of the pots in the kitchen. 

Linguini passes a stained-glass window that seems to have hidden Mickeys in it.

bomb voyage real name

When Linguini first takes Remy out of the restaurant, he jumps onto his bike and rides it along the streets of Paris past a cathedral with a huge, circular stained-glass window.

The edge of the window appears to be made up of small Mickey heads, following Disney's tradition of including "hidden Mickeys" in its movies.

After Remy bites Linguini's hand, the mark can be seen healing over the next few days.

bomb voyage real name

Before Remy and Linguini figure out how to communicate with each other, the rat bites the chef to get his attention. 

The bite mark on Linguini's right hand is visible and shown slowly healing in later scenes over the next few days. 

There are slit marks on the cutting board after Colette pulls knives out of it.

bomb voyage real name

Before training Linguini, Colette makes it clear that she takes her job seriously and wants to be respected.

She gets his attention during her speech by stabbing knives through his apron sleeves onto a cutting board .

After she pulls them out, there are visible slit marks left on the board. 

Gusteau's book appears many times throughout the movie, including in a framed photo in the chef's old office.

bomb voyage real name

Gusteau's book , "Anyone Can Cook," is shown and referenced frequently throughout the film. 

Remy watches the book being promoted on the TV at the beginning before stealing the copy from the old woman's house while he's escaping. 

It can also be seen in the restaurant kitchen, in a storefront that Colette passes, and in a framed promotional photo in Gusteau's old office.

Colette has a visible burn on her wrist while she's cautioning Linguini about proper kitchen safety.

bomb voyage real name

Colette gives Linguini plenty of useful advice while training him in the kitchen.

For example, she tells him to keep his arms close to his body to minimize the number of cuts and burns he gets while cooking .

As she's doling out this advice, Colette's right sleeve moves and shows that she's speaking from experience — she has a small, red burn mark on her wrist.

Bomb Voyage from "The Incredibles" makes a cameo in the film.

bomb voyage real name

Three years before "Ratatouille," Brad Bird directed Pixar's "The Incredibles," and one of that film's villains, a bank-robbing mime named Bomb Voyage, makes two brief cameos in the 2007 movie.

He's first seen on the front page of a newspaper Colette is reading. The robber's photograph can be seen next to a headline that features his name. 

Later in the film, Linguini and Colette roller-skate past Bomb Voyage as he's performing on a bridge. 

The menus at Gusteau's don't show prices.

bomb voyage real name

Fancy, Michelin-star restaurants don't usually have prices on menus in real life, and Gusteau's seems to follow this tradition.

When the menus are shown throughout the movie, there are never any visible prices written next to the dishes.

Skinner makes a joke about Linguini's hat when he pulls it off his head.

bomb voyage real name

When Chef Skinner pulls Linguini's hat off his head in an attempt to catch Remy, Linguini looks at him in questioning shock. 

Skinner tries to pass the moment off as a joke by saying, "Got your toque."

The comment seems to be a clever play on the phrase, "got your tongue" seeing as "toque" is the official name for a chef's hat.

The health inspector can be seen much earlier in the movie.

bomb voyage real name

Next to the light switches in the kitchen, there's a piece of paper taped to the bricks that details information about the restaurant's district and health inspector. 

When the health inspector shows up at Gusteau's later on in the film, fans who were paying close attention will recognize him from his photograph on the sheet. 

The chefs' uniforms actually get dirtier as their shifts transpire.

bomb voyage real name

The night that Skinner gets Linguini drunk, he asks the chef to clean up afterward. Linguini ends up falling asleep in the kitchen and doesn't wake up until Colette arrives the next day.

When the two go to talk outside, Linguini's chef whites are rumpled and stained from his shift the night before, while Colette's uniform is perfectly white and clean. 

Throughout the movie, chefs arrive at work with clean aprons but small stains and wrinkles appear by the end of each shift.

Ego's refusal to swallow bad food is mentioned in one of his reviews before it's said out loud.

bomb voyage real name

When Anton Ego visits Gusteau's, he tells Linguini, "If I don't love it, I don't swallow."

However, eagle-eyed viewers will have already known that if they paid attention to the old reviews hanging around the portrait in the food critic's office. 

One of the headlines read, "mouth stayed shut," which explains that the critic doesn't eat bad food.

There are a lot of realistic details in Gusteau's will.

bomb voyage real name

Skinner and his lawyer mention that Gusteau's will includes a two-year time limit for the famous chef's heir to claim the restaurant before it is to be given to his sous-chef, Skinner.

When Remy finds and reads the will, the sentences about the two-year deadline and sous-chef clause are legible. And the document even has official markings on it, such as a witness signature and notary stamp.

The couple that Remy saw fighting earlier appears to make up over the course of the movie.

bomb voyage real name

When Skinner is chasing Remy, they run past what appears to be the same pair Remy saw fighting toward the beginning of the movie .

The couple is dining outside and seems to be getting along far better than they were when the woman was holding the man at gunpoint. 

The famous Pixar Pizza Planet truck makes a very brief cameo.

bomb voyage real name

During the big chase scene, eagle-eyed fans may be able to spot a famous Pixar Easter egg: the Pizza Planet truck .

The yellow and white vehicle races across a bridge in the very back of a shot. 

One chef finally gets to use the culinary torch he's seen holding in earlier scenes.

bomb voyage real name

When Skinner first sees Remy, everyone in the kitchen tries to catch the rat. 

One chef grabs a culinary torch and actually looks disappointed when Remy is trapped before he can use it.

At the end of the movie, however, he finally gets to use the torch to burn boxes of Gusteau's frozen food .

When Ego is served the ratatouille, there is steam rising off of it.

bomb voyage real name

When Ego comes to review Gusteau's, Remy makes him a plate of colorful ratatouille. 

In the kitchen, the dish is shown being plated immediately after being pulled from the oven, and when Linguini places in front of Ego, there is still visible steam rising off of the hot meal.

Why The Villain Of The Incredibles Wasn't Actually Syndrome

Jason Lee as Syndrome in The Incredibles

Back in 2004, Walt Disney Pictures released its  Pixar Animation Studios-produced feature  The Incredibles , marking a major win both financially and critically. Fans all over the world loved the film and played an active role in willing its sequel into existence 14 years later. The list of reasons why The Incredibles  became such a smash hit is a long one, with its well-timed comedy, interesting world-building, and instantly iconic characters winning over moviegoers almost immediately. That said, though, The Incredibles would be nothing without its entertaining story, which is far more nuanced than most give it credit for.

On the surface, The Incredibles stands as a classic good-versus-evil narrative designed to draw in all members of the family . The movie quite obviously depicts the super-powered Parr family as the heroes, while the maniacal Syndrome (voiced by Jason Lee) takes up the bad guy position. His plan to stage an attack on a city to boost his ego and spite his former meta-human idols makes that label rather fitting. Still, for as despicable as Syndrome appears, there's more to consider when telling this wannabe hero's story.

The truth is that Syndrome isn't actually the villain in the first Incredibles movie, and the answer to who the real one is might be a hard pill to swallow for lifelong fans of the franchise.

Mr. Incredible is the real bad guy

Craig T. Nelson as Mr. Incredible in The Incredibles

When it comes down to it, Mr. Incredible (voiced by Craig T. Nelson) is the real villain of  The Incredibles . Before you get out your torches and pitchforks at the thought of such blasphemy, his personal history speaks for itself.

However, in his younger years, Bob Parr made a legacy for himself as the famed crime-fighter Mr. Incredible. He was a celebrity in the years before the outlaw of superheroes , becoming something of a cultural icon among those young and old. One such fan of his was Buddy Pine, whose fascination with his favorite hero became an obsession — attempting on one occasion to take the mantle "IncrediBoy" and team up with Mr. Incredible. 

Ultimately, Mr. Incredible elected to decline Buddy's offer, verbally berating him for getting in the way and allowing the supervillain Bomb Voyage to escape custody . Embarrassed and disappointed in his icon, Buddy took a dark turn and renounced his fandom, starting down the path that led to him becoming Syndrome. 

To some extent, Buddy's downward spiral was an overreaction, but the fact remains that Mr. Incredible's choice to humiliate him that night was the catalyst for Buddy's transformation. Mr. Incredible created a super-villain, one who would eventually put his entire family in harm's way. 

When Mirage's (Elizabeth Peña) first offer for Bob to resume hero work arrived, he had the chance to be up-front with his wife Helen (Holly Hunter) and the kids about his new job. Instead, he chose the alternative, which was to lie and hide his activities from all of them. Therefore, when Syndrome revealed himself as the mastermind behind Bob's assignments and subsequently imprisoned him, the Parr family didn't know they were walking into a trap when they tried to rescue him. If Bob had told the truth to his family from the beginning, they would've been in the know and came better prepared to defeat Syndrome.

All in all, the so-called hero Mr. Incredible did some pretty evil stuff in his time, even if he didn't realize it in the moment.

Mirage is the secondary antagonist of the 2004 Disney / Pixar animated film The Incredibles . She was Syndrome 's sultry assistant during his attempt to eradicate Supers , but she had a change of heart after Syndrome appeared to pass off her life.

Background [ ]

Personality [ ].

Mirage is a calm and decisive femme fatale who thrives on wealth and power. Unlike Syndrome, however, she has standards for how far she is willing to go for it.

At first, Mirage respected Syndrome as her leader and her presumed lover, sharing in his taste for calculation and betrayal and willingly drawing supers to their deaths to near the point where they could release the Omnidroid for its rampage. However, she does have some honor, as she was clearly ill at ease with Syndrome opening fire on Elastigirl's plane when they learned children were aboard, and all of her loyalty for him completely faded away when Syndrome expressed no concern for her life once Mr. Incredible threatened to kill her and then mocked the man whose family he thought he had killed by calling him weak, thus making her change her ways completely by siding with the Incredibles.

Physical appearance [ ]

Mirage is a tall tan-skinned young woman with mid-back length platinum-blonde hair that has bangs swept to the left side, green eyes, and a very slim body.

She has a penchant for expensive clothes, and sometimes wears earrings and also wears high-heeled black shoes.

Role in the film [ ]

"Mirage" is a pseudonym, her real name is currently unknown. She is Syndrome 's seductive right-hand woman, who aided him in the murder of Gazerbeam and many other superheroes during Operation Kronos. She had been conducting surveillance on Frozone for some time in an attempt to make him Syndrome's next murder victim, however, when she spots Frozone with his good friend Mr. Incredible , Mirage recommends to Syndrome that they put Frozone on hold and instead target Mr. Incredible, given Syndrome's hatred of the latter. She later slips a video message to Bob Parr on his last day at Insuricare , spinning a story of needing superhero help with a government project gone wrong and promising to pay him to triple his annual salary at Insuricare, which he opens that night after he is fired by Gilbert Huph . Mr. Incredible, both eager to resume his superhero glory days and in need of money to support his family now that he is unemployed, accepts Mirage's offer. Mirage meets Mr. Incredible aboard the Manta Ship and requests him to deactivate the allegedly defective Omnidroid 9,000 on Nomanisan Island without destroying it, warning him that the robot will learn the longer that the battle goes on. She watches from a surveillance bird with Syndrome as Mr. Incredible succeeds in the task, surprising the vengeful villain who instructs Mirage to invite him to dinner. She later joins Mr. Incredible at dinner that night, explaining away her superior's absence as him liking anonymity, and explaining that she's drawn to him due to a mutual attraction to power. After receiving his pay, Bob returns home.

Two months later, Mirage contacts Mr. Incredible again after the super has turned his home life around with both the increased income and losing a significant amount of weight. She greets him complimenting his new suit, courtesy of Edna Mode , and escorts him to a suite, informing him that he will receive his briefing later that day in a certain room, in actuality a trap where Syndrome and the completed Omnidroid 10,000 waits to intercept him. Later that night, after Mr. Incredible tricked Syndrome's probe into thinking he was dead, Mirage inadvertently lets Mr. Incredible into Nomanisan's control room, allowing him to discover Syndrome's plans, but finds him when the tracking device on his suit triggers the security system.

She is present later when Syndrome tries to interrogate Mr. Incredible about the plane heading to the island, looking on with an increasingly uncomfortable expression as Syndrome sends missiles at the jet when it becomes clear that Mr. Incredible's wife is the pilot, and even more so when they learn that their children are on the plane. She reluctantly informs Syndrome that the missiles destroyed the plane and notices Mr. Incredible fighting through his binds after Syndrome taunts him. She pushes him out of the way, winding up in Mr. Incredible's grasp herself as the super threatens to crush her unless Syndrome releases him. Syndrome comments it is uncharacteristically dark for him and passes it off, much to Mirage's concern, and goads Mr. Incredible. The broken super releases her a few seconds later, and Mirage's expression shows even more uncertainty as she leaves the room. Syndrome continues to taunt him over being weak and beneath him now while Mr. Incredible sobs for his presumed deceased family. Later, as they prepare the rocket to launch the Omnidroid, Mirage calls Syndrome out on his attitude, to which Syndrome tells her he simply called Mr. Incredible's bluff and that he knew he would not have it in him to hurt her. Not buying his excuse, Mirage furiously tells him to bet his own life when he gambles again and storms off in disgust, leaving Syndrome confused.

The next morning, Mirage has decided to defect from Syndrome, and shortly after learning that Mr. Incredibles' family had survived and made it to the island, she goes to free him. The super nearly chokes her before she manages to say that they're alive, upon which the super releases and then warmly embraces her. She then notices Helen in the doorway, who punches her in the face, under the impression that her husband had an affair with her. Mr. Incredible quickly disabuses her of that notion, and Mirage warns them that their children may have triggered the alarm and tells them to hurry to find them.

Later, after Syndrome has left the island, leaving the Incredibles bound in the containment room, Mirage sees the Omnidroid attacking the city on the news with a worried expression and then sees the escaped family running through the halls, to her surprise. Reaching the hangar, the Incredibles decide to use the extra rocket to return to the mainland, but Mr. Incredible surmises that Syndrome has changed the password. As he ponders on how they could access the computer, Mirage speaks over the intercom: "Say please." Thanks to Mirage, the Incredibles are able to return to Metroville to stop the Omnidroid and thus foil Syndrome's plan of Operation Kronos for good.

Printed media [ ]

Mirage has since joined the NSA as an agent. When Xerek becomes active again in Europe, she and Helen are assigned to work together against the diminutive supervillain's schemes. When discovering Helen's past with Xerek and how she is keeping this from the rest of the family, Mirage points out that she is doing exactly the same thing Bob was doing, to Helen's chagrin. Arriving in Paris , they face Bomb Voyage and a group of mercenaries, though they are outnumbered. Helen pursues Bomb Voyage to Xerek's lair, with Mirage meeting her there. After Xerek's small goal of wanting to lure Helen out under the assumption, she missed the thrill of the old days and him, both heroes just laugh and Xerek is arrested as Mirage manages to offer his mercenaries better pay.

Mirage also makes a non-playable appearance in the game Disney Infinity , where she helps the Incredibles and Edna Mode to defeat Syndrome before he can destroy the city.

Miscellaneous [ ]

Mirage with Xerek.

  • Her name means an optical illusion caused by atmospheric conditions or something that appears real or possible but is not in fact so, as it alludes at her deceptive nature and her comparing herself to the Supers that, according to the government, they do not exist.
  • Mirage is similar to several James Bond villainesses, especially ones such as Pussy Galore and Andrea Anders who, like her, eventually defect from their truly evil employers.
  • Mirage's voice strongly suggests a Central American or European accent.
  • Despite her original voice actress Elizabeth Peña having a Spanish last name, and the ability to speak Spanish, she has not dubbed her own voices for Spanish-language releases.
  • Mirage's skill in locating superheroes seems to show that she has extensive computing skills and is adept at human intelligence (HUMINT).
  • Director Brad Bird has said that Mirage does not have superpowers.
  • It is implied Mirage has a crush on Mr Incredible as she was flirting with him.
  • One of her other infamous outfits is a long black dress, which she wore when she had dinner with Mr. Incredible.
  • The phone number on Mirage's business card reads (866) 787-7476. On a typical telephone keypad, this translates into "SUPRHRO."
  • Mirage is the only character to call Helen with her alternate name "Mrs. Incredible"; this is because at that point her identity was still unknown.
  • Mirage is the third Pixar villain to reform at the end of the film, after Molt and Fungus .
  • Espionage (gaining access to federal data, the only conceivable way she could find the supers and enlist them).
  • Tax evasion and wire fraud (paying supers under the table money).
  • Impersonating a government agent (claiming to be a government representative/employee).
  • Murder/Manslaughter (willful aiding in the murder of several superheroes).
  • Terrorism (launching an attack on US soil).
  • Ironically, almost everything she says to Mr. Incredible during their meeting on the plane turns out to be or become the truth: the Omnidroid's powers she lists are real and they actually lose control of the Omnidroid v.10.
  • It should be noted that all of Mirage's printed media appearances after the events of The Incredibles have been rendered non-canon since the creation and release of Incredibles 2 . As a result, her actual canonical fate after the first film is still unknown.
  • While Evelyn Deavor is the first female main antagonist of Pixar , Mirage is actually the studio's first major female antagonist in their overall history.
