It appears that some countries (such as Portugal) are keeping it 'The Incredibles 2'. I wonder why Disney would bother with such a minor change for overseas.
Maybe it's a whole Europe thing like Vaiana? Wish I could say anything about the movie, but I still have to wait two weeks because Disney Brazil sucks. In my country it doesn't open until August 3, so I know how you feel. Regarding the title, in Spain it also keeps the article and in too.
I guess each country must've chosen whether to keep it or not depending on what sounds natural in their language. In Spain, for instance, sequel titles usually tend to keep the articles even when the original ones don't, and I think that's because it would sound a little weird here without it. That might be changing, though, because at least the Avengers sequels have lost the article here as well. Just saw this! The animation looks well, incredible, much, much better than the first one. They did so great by focusing on the whole family, and at the same time Helen lead so well. I wasn't expecting it to begin exactly where the first one left off, and I thought it was great.
However, Pixar really needs to start doing away with the super secret villain who is a good guy in disguise. She was great, but it was really obvious to me she was the villain because that's what they've been doing for so long. Late to the party but I did finally see it. Overall I'm not disappointed really. I do think the villain was weak though. I also wanted more closure on the underminer.
I mean, that's what what I left the first one wanting, and now we still don't get that? Maybe in a third one we will. As for the villain being predictable, I honestly thought the obvious route would be that the guy was the villain, but he didn't turn out to be. I think this movie sets the new bar for human animation, at least at Pixar. It's a bit more debatable if we pit this against Disney's offerings. It's up there though. The villain is the main thing holding it back from the original, but I still really enjoyed it.
Oh, and one thing I was disappointed by was their choice in recasting Rick Dicker. The new guy sounds nothing like Bud Lucky.
I personally would have tried to get someone like Tommy Lee Jones. The Blu-Ray will feature a special exclusive short in the vein of Jack-Jack Attack from the first movie's DVD/Blu-Ray Release.
It'll chronicle the night that Edna babysat Jack-Jack. So excited for this especially since I loved the first one! It'll be a perfect companion to it.
Making a short of that part of the story that wasn't shown in the film is a great idea. I guess it was originally a scene that was deleted or was always planned as a short, because when I saw the film it seemed a scene had been cut there.

I wanted to know how Edna managed to get along so well with Jack-Jack. Now we'll know.
