Incredibles 2 story supervisor Ted Mathot told me Bird “banned” three-point landings from the film.
And there was one thing — something that appears in almost every other superhero movie — that writer/director Brad Bird absolutely refused to allow in Incredibles 2.
It’s just that Brad Bird wanted his superhero movie to standout in a sea of other ones.
Superhero comics featured dramatic poses from their earliest days, so there’s no anachronistic problems with three-point landings.
