So what can we say about Disney? Holds a special place in some of our hearts, for the villains or heroes and or the beautiful look. I hope to share a little bit of everything in the days coming, maybe things you forgot about, maybe not and being part of the Co-hosting for A to Z Challenge we all remember Tina... a dear friend and sweet lady.
Please stop back throughout the challenge, can I encourage you to start following me on Google + and be a member. I promise to give you posts here on why we are all a little "Hollywood Nuts"! -Jeremy [Retro]

Dashiell "Dash" Robert Parr (voiced by Spencer Fox) is a speedster. While he is only as strong as the average 10-year-old boy, the film's official website lists "enhanced durability" amongst Dash's powers, which is implied in the film by the amount of incidental high-speed collisions and crashes Dash endures without apparent injury. Dash also discovers throughout the course of the movie that his speed allows him to be able to run over water without submerging.
Dash would like to go out for sports, but his mother Helen will not allow it because she thinks that he would show off his superspeed and blow the family's civilian cover. To vent his frustration, Dash uses his power to play pranks on his teacher, Bernie Kropp, which also threatens their cover.
Dash's reckless and impulsive nature and one-track mind have put him at odds with Violet's gloomier and more sarcastic nature more often than their parents would like, but when Dash is in battle, he cares deeply about his family; he was willing to attack a fully grown man who was about to kill his sister with an assault rifle.
His red superhero suit, designed by Edna Mode, is resistant to air friction, wear and heat when Dash is running at super speed.

Is it true that theyare doing a second 'The Incredibles' flick, or am I just finally at the senile farm?
ReplyDeleteCool seeing you at the Hearth, a bit like the 'old days' :)
So how is Google+ working out? It's a bit tricksy when you go to someone's link and it's a G+ site with no navigation or reference to their A-Z. Any suggestions on that you can give folks?
Going to have to check out your Ts, my friend. I feel the need, the need for T!
Dash, a dashing young fellow!
ReplyDeleteThat is my favorite Pixar film.
ReplyDeleteOoh, great choice for D - I love the Incredibles - it is such a fantastic movie and Dash is the perfect little brother character.

There was a time when The Incredibles ran on the loop at home. Thankfully my son has outgrown that stage of dedicated viewing. Pixar films are wonderful.
ReplyDeleteWould like to second the earlier post by Mark K re G+ - no navigation no reference, what to do?

Super powers aside, I think Dash is kinda cute.
ReplyDeleteDash would drive me crazy if he were my kid.

Ah, thanks for introducing me to Dash. I have not watched The Incredibles (don't shoot me), but looks like I was missing out. Love your blog and the theme for this month - blessings and thank you for stopping by my blog earlier!
ReplyDeleteOh Dash-He is like Dennis the Menace in some ways:)
ReplyDeleteGreat visuals Jeremy, so very well done! Brings a smile to my face every time.
ReplyDeleteThe Disney theme is one of the best on the A-to-Z!
ReplyDeleteGreat post!

Dash makes me happy just looking at him!
ReplyDeleteHe does have that 'dashing Hollywood' leading man look!
ReplyDeleteI loved that movie. Edna Mode was my favorite character.
ReplyDeleteDash is a cutie. I wanna play on his team.
ReplyDeleteI've never actually seen The Incredible, but I know so many who loved it.
ReplyDeleteHaven't seen this movie but it sounds like fun. Will add to my to see list.

ReplyDeleteI love the Incredibles because the babysitter's name is Kari... and it's even pronounced correctly!
ReplyDeleteThe Incredibles are greatly underrated. It's a great family show, appealing to all ages.
ReplyDeleteI'll have to stop by more often.... me and Disney have crossed paths in my former life... and I worked for the Mouse at Disneyworld, EuroDisney and for DisneyQuest in Chicago...
ReplyDeleteAnd yet, I still love the brand, if not the (old) leadership that began with E :)
Cheers and Happy Easter!
I heard the same Incredibles 2 rumor! My son's favorite character is "Jack-Jack," so I'm excited to see more of him in a possible sequel.

In other words, Dash is a typical boy. "Why have I got these powers if I can't use them?" would be my grandson's argument.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great theme - love Disney! Thanks for stopping by my blog.
ReplyDeletehaven't seen that one!
ReplyDeleteDash sounds like such a fun character! Thanks for sharing, Jeremy. Untethered Realms
ReplyDeleteI need to watch this movie in English. Apparently the Hungarian translation was vastly different :D I do have a soft spot for speedsters, though, right bow being fed both by Marvel and by DC.
ReplyDeleteHappy Easter!

Dash is the best. I love when he is running across the water and he laughs when he realizes he is going too fast to fall through. My kids point out that The Incredibles is the only Disney Pixar movie to have BOTH parents. Though Brave also did later on.
ReplyDeleteEdna Mode....and guest.
ReplyDeleteMy son and I love this movie. Just watched it the other day.

One of my favorite moments in any Pixar movie comes near the end when Dash is fleeing the guards in those flying-saucer thingies, sees the beach coming to an end, closes his eyes and braces himself to fall in... only to realize he can run on water. That laugh he makes at that moment is one of the greatest sounds in the history of animated film and the giant grin that goes with it is just priceless.
ReplyDeleteLove him, love The Incredibles, love all of it- LOVE IT!
I loved this movie. They could do another one and I wouldn't mind! Lisa, co-host AtoZ 2015, @ http://www.lisabuiecollard.com
