The Parr family is back in Brad Bird's Incredibles 2, a meticulous revisitation of the 2004 Pixar classic. As Mashable's Angie Han points out, 2018 is certainly not short on superhero movies. But Bird and company manage to avoid the pitfalls of over saturation and instead make their mark on super history once more.

If you've been trying — and failing — to use Reddit then you're not alone.
The self-proclaimed "front page of the internet" went down for many users for about an hour on Monday.
It's not clear what caused the issue, which began around 9:23 a.m. PDT, according to a report on Reddit's status page. "This incident has been resolved," the company wrote an hour later at 10:22 a.m.

Cameron Esposito's 'Rape Jokes' comedy special is a challenge to do better
In 2012, Daniel Tosh made a rape joke during a standup set in California. A woman in the audience stood up and had a problem with it, being a victim of sexual assault herself. Tosh saw a heckler, and reacted immediately. He said "Wouldn’t it be funny if that girl got raped by like, five guys right now?"
Response to the episode was divisive, with many supporting the woman's blog post about her experience, and many comics arguing for the industry's freedom of speech (but also, freedom from h...

How 'Incredibles 2' carves out its own space in a superhero-saturated world
In the 14 years since The Incredibles came out, superhero movies have exploded. Circa 2004, we got maybe two a year; in 2018, Incredibles 2 is the third such film within the past two months.
In that context, it's easy to imagine Incredibles 2 getting swallowed up by the wave, buried under the meta jokes of Deadpool and the ambitious world-building of Marvel. Instead, however, Incredibles 2 rises above it. Here's how.
