I'm not sure if whether or not this could be a shot-by-shot remake like the "How to Train Your Dragon" remake. After reading the script online, I noticed that there are scenes where the editing got a little mixed up. Also in the newsreel montage, there's an unfinished shot of Mr. Incredible in a court room with the el-train accident victims. Superheroes ("Supers") are forced into hiding after an overwhelming series of lawsuits where some people who were rescued didn't WANT to be rescued and the Supers being blamed for collateral damage. All acts of superheroism are now declared illegal. 15 years later, struggling insurance claims adjuster and family man Bob Parr (Mr. Incredible) is given a chance to relive the glory days after being recruited for a top-secret mission. After finding out the hard way that it's all part of a convoluted revenge plot, Bob must realize that sometimes, family comes first. What if there are scenes where there are reports of hundreds of people going missing, and Bob recognizes most of them as former Supers?
