The Incredibles

Brad Bird · 2004

The Incredibles follows a superhero family forced into hiding by government mandate, focusing on a father stuck in a soul-crushing insurance job until a secret assignment pulls him back into hero work and endangers his family. Written and directed solely by Brad Bird for Pixar, with an all-human cast the studio had never animated before, the film grossed $631 million against a $92 million budget and won two competitive Academy Awards plus the first Hugo Award given to an entirely animated film.

The Iron Giant

Brad Bird · 1999

The Iron Giant drops a fifty-foot alien robot into small-town Maine in 1957 and lets a lonely boy's friendship with it, rather than its destructive potential, carry the film. Brad Bird's feature debut, made by Warner Bros. on roughly half the budget and schedule of comparable animated films, was a box-office failure on release but has since become a byword for a cult classic.
