Varför fanns det ett 14 årigt mellanrum mellan The Incredibles och The Incredibles 2?

65

Incredibles gjordes 2004. I slutet blev det tydligt visat att Pixar kommer att göra en andra del. Men Incredibles 2 visas först 2018, efter 14 år. Vad orsakade en sådan stor försening? Var det bara för att Pixar var upptagen med att göra andra filmer?

För skribent-regissören Brad Bird kom allt ner till historien.

“The thing is, many sequels are cash grabs,” Bird told reporters during a recent press event to promote Incredibles 2. “There’s a saying in the business that I can’t stand, where they go, ‘if you don’t make another one, you’re leaving money on the table.’ It’s like, money on the table is not what makes me get up in the morning; making something that people are gonna enjoy a hundred years from now, that’s what gets me up. So if it were a cash grab, we would not have taken fourteen years – it makes no financial sense to wait this long – it’s purely that we had a story we wanted to tell.”

Bird admitted that the proliferation of superhero properties in recent years has made it much harder to tell an original story; the first film debuted before Pixar’s parent company, Disney, purchased Marvel, and predated Iron Man by four years - meaning that the new film is entering a very different cinematic landscape from its predecessor.

Det finns en rättvis bit i källartikeln

Varför tog Incredibles 2 så lång tid? Brad Bird förklarar förloppsförseningen

Vissa av dem handlar också om flera omskrivningar om skurkförhållandet och försöker göra I2 mer unikt i en ständigt spridande biograf av superheltfilmer.

Slutet på Incredibles var aldrig menat som en pekare till en uppföljare. Som Brad Bird - som skrev och regisserade filmen - berättade CinemaBlend :

How did that Pixar adventure end? The family was leaving Dash's track meet, when suddenly, a former nemesis -- The Underminer (John Ratzenberger) -- bursts out of the pavement and declares war. But, in an exclusive interview, Bird told CinemaBlend that this wasn't always his planned ending, and he explained:

I had another ending that was kind half baked, meaning not really finished in my mind. And I knew that the way to classically end a film is show people getting back in the saddle and riding off into the sunset. But I resisted a little. And finally, my head of story on that film, a guy named Mark Andrews, said, 'Come on, you know what you want!' And I was like, 'All right, all right.' So I thought, it's a way of showing they're together, and that they're going to face whatever obstacles as a group, now embracing their superpowers. So I thought that's what was important to communicate.

I wouldn't have set it up so everyone wonders who The Underminer is. No, no. It was just, this will be a satisfying ending to this film. And if there's never another one, we get that the family's together, they're embracing their powers, and they're fighting whatever obstacle comes their way.

much like the first film, Incredibles 2 will explore "the roles of men and women; the importance of fathers participating; the importance of allowing women to also express themselves through work, and that they’re just as vital as men are. And there’s aspects of being controlled by screens. There’s feelings about the difficulties of parenthood, that parenting is a heroic act." – Interview with director Brad Bird

14 år är hur lång tid det tog deras målgrupps barn att ha barn av sig själv. Det var nödvändigt för den nya publiken att uppskatta filmen ... och förstås: extra biljettförsäljning.
