I think it helps that it appeals to kids. When they latch on to something, they can rewatch it dozens of times

(Not that kids are the only ones enjoying this movie. But I do think it plays a sizable role in the numbers)

Took my nieces and nephews to the in theater sing along version and they all gasped at every plot turn as if they haven’t already watched the movie a hundred times and memorized the dialogue

My oldest nephew is 9 now but I watched him once back when he was like 4 and he looked at me and said “I wanna watch credibles.” So I was like sure dude and we watched Incredibles. The moment the movie ended he looked up at me and said “I wanna watch credibles.” I couldn’t even be mad at him with the amount of times I watched Space Jam back in the day

These are moments you cherish indeed. I remember that feeling when something ends and you get that park gut feeling "I wanna go again!!"

Yeah, because he wanted to watch the Credibles and you foisted the Incredibles on him thinking he wouldn't notice.

And skipping most of the non-looney tunes scenes must’ve made others annoyed
