->'''Helen Parr/Elastigirl:''' ''Remember the bad guys on the shows you used to watch on Saturday mornings? Well, these guys aren't like those guys. They won't exercise restraint because you are children. They will'' '''''kill you''''' ''if they get the chance. Do'' '''''not''''' ''give them that chance.''
->'''Kyle Reese:''' ''Listen - and understand! That Terminator is out there! It can't be bargained with. It can't be reasoned with. It doesn't feel pity, or remorse, or fear.'' '''''And it absolutely will not stop, ever...until you are dead!'''''

* Elastigirl warning Violet and Dash about Syndrome's men hunting for them is very reminiscent of [[Film/TheTerminator Kyle Reese's monologue to Sarah Connor about the T-800]].

* When a velocipod saws a palm tree in half, it makes a sound very similar to a [[Franchise/StarWars TIE fighter's cannons]].

Just For Pun is a disambiguation


* Elastigirl sizing up her butt with shock and disappointment [[JustForPun mirrors]] that of Tinker Bell from ''WesternAnimation/PeterPan'', who does the same thing when glancing at her own hips in the mirror.

* The teaser trailer showing Mr. Incredible squeezing into his outfit only for his dadbod belly to defeat his belt seems to be a shoutout to ''Film/Poltergeist'', where [[Creator/CraigTNelson Steven]] sucks in and releases his gut while getting high with his wife.

* Frozone's power set and method of locomotion is based on Iceman of the ''Franchise/XMen''.

* In a more obscure example, the "Viper" heli-crafts that appear sporadically in the film during transition scenes, and prominently during one deleted scene bare an uncanny resemblance to the "Cartel hoverfighters" that appear frequently in Interplay's FMV video game VideoGame/{{Cyberia}}.

[[ShoutOut Shout Outs]] in ''WesternAnimation/TheIncredibles1''.
* Bomb Voyage is the title of an episode of ''WesternAnimation/TheInspector''.
* The famous [[Main/ArcNumber A113 classroom]] at California Institute of the Arts is referenced twice. The conference room number where Bob encounters the v9.0 Omnidroid is A113. Later, when captured, he is held in Level A1, Cell Block 13.
* The call-sign of Helen's plane is "India Golf Niner-Niner", or "IG 99", referencing ''WesternAnimation/TheIronGiant'', director Brad Bird's previous film, which came out in '99.
* The Omnidroids' spinning blades make the same sound as the spinning blades of the malevolent robot Maximilian in ''Film/TheBlackHole''. The Omnidroids' "eye" even looks like Maximilian's visor.
* During Bob's first visit to the island, as he runs through the jungle searching for the "escaped" robot, there's a shot-for-shot from ''Film/{{Predator}}'' of him stepping off a ledge and descending into a valley, and many of the other scenes during that segment are also at least highly similar to ones from that same movie.
* Syndrome entitled his project "Kronos", which is the name of a 1957 film featuring a giant killer robot. In [[Myth/ClassicalMythology Greek Myth]], it's titled the 'all devouring' and eats his children, the Olympians (except for Zeus, of course), and in other words, killing.
* The interiors of Syndrome's base look like those of the "Liparus" and "Atlantis" in ''Film/TheSpyWhoLovedMe'', as well as Blofeld's volcano base in ''Film/YouOnlyLiveTwice''. The scene of Mr. Incredible leaning on the balcony railing is from ''Film/DrNo''. Furthermore, Michael Giacchino's soundtrack would have fit perfectly in a James Bond film -- the opening fanfare is a SuspiciouslySimilarSong to the theme from ''Film/OnHerMajestysSecretService''. (Brad Bird initially wanted John Barry himself to do the score, but he was unavailable.) [[note]] They used the ''Film/OnHerMajestysSecretService'' theme in at least one of the trailers. [[/note]]
* Many of the costumes on display in Edna Mode's studio are shout outs to Creator/{{Marvel|Comics}} super heroes, including Franchise/CaptainAmerica, the ComicBook/FantasticFour, and Crystal of ComicBook/TheInhumans.
* Frozone's power set and method of locomotion is based on Iceman of the ''Franchise/XMen''.
* Gazerbeam's powers, costume, visor, and personality profile are based on ''ComicBook/XMen'' leader ComicBook/{{Cyclops}}.
* Bob and Lucius' would-be arrest after they accidentally crash into a jewelry shop, is a shout-out to ''Film/DieHardWithAVengeance''. In both movies, a character played/dubbed by Samuel L. Jackson is held at gunpoint by a nervous cop with a shaking gun hand, and tries to convince him to let him do a very mundane task, albeit having a drink vs. answering a call.
* The mascot of the middle school that Violet attends — a Spartan — is the same as Brad Bird's high school, Corvallis High School. The design of the high school is also what CHS used to look like (it was bulldozed and rebuilt in 2005).
* The name of the town/city the Parrs live in is called "Metroville" - a portmanteau of "Metropolis" and "Smallville", the locations where Superman lives and grew up, respectively.
* Elastigirl sizing up her butt with shock and disappointment [[JustForPun mirrors]] that of Tinker Bell from ''WesternAnimation/PeterPan'', who does the same thing when glancing at her own hips in the mirror.
* The Underminer, the villain that appears at the very end of the movie, is a CaptainErsatz of the "Mole Man", the first villain the Franchise/{{Fantastic Four}} fight on their very first published comic.
* In the end, the shot of Mr. Incredible pulling his shirt apart, revealing his superhero emblem, is exactly like ''Film/{{Superman}}''.
* The TV/VCR in the principal's office of Dash's school strongly resembles a [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Predicta Philco Predicta]]. Creator/JohnLasseter has one in his office.
* Doubles as a FreezeFrameBonus, when Mr. Incredible leaves the family dinner table to eat quietly in another room he brings a newspaper to read. When he opens it, you can see a headline on the right side which reads ''"Catastrophe Seen As Crisis Looms"'' which is a nod to the cannonball scene in ''WesternAnimation/TheIronGiant''. In that scene, Dean is about to be inundated by a wall of water caused by the Giant and pulls up a newspaper to "shield" him. The headline of that paper reads ''"Disaster Seen As Catastrophe Looms"''.
* In a more obscure example, the "Viper" heli-crafts that appear sporadically in the film during transition scenes, and prominently during one deleted scene bare an uncanny resemblance to the "Cartel hoverfighters" that appear frequently in Interplay's FMV video game VideoGame/{{Cyberia}}.
* When Bob and Rick are talking about the fallout from Insuricare and what steps will have to be taken, after listing all the technicals he ends by spewing "Money money money money money" not unlike a certain child [[WesternAnimation/ToyStory1 playing with his toys]].
