Actually, I'd say the 15 years later is 15 years after the wedding, so supers would've gone underground around 1957/8, and the movie takes place in 1969

in future, we should probably move Incredibles conversations to its own thread. Also, @Dallas Kinard could you send me a link to the Incredibles teaser you have on your timeline?

Nailing down this desk calendar will be helpful for a month. To me, it appears to be April of 1969.

I'd say it's definitely a Summer month, since the second takes place right after the first, when school starts, so whatever summer month starts on a Thursday in 1969/1970 I guess

Remember, Incredibles II has a "Friday, October 25th" newspaper date. Looks like 1968 is our year.

It doesn't line up with Syndrome's data though - which I'd say is more reliable as they had to write the information for it, as opposed to a newspaper - that same movie has one dated to 2002 I believe

July 1970 lines up with the calendar perfectly as well, aligning with the summer holiday/start of school placements

Note that my calendar is British, meaning it starts on Monday, not Sunday

Incredibles II only has that one Newspaper date I believe.

2002 Date:

Sorry, I thought this was Incredibles II

I still feel as though the newspapers are unreliable in the franchise in general, so unless it doesn't contradict anything and there's nothing else to go off of, I wouldn't use them as a reference

That's from the first one. We def. have conflicting dates. I think the 2002 one can absolutely be ignored though. The October 25th, one from II is pretty important IMO.

I understand that, but with 2002 and 1962 randomly placed, I wouldn't put any newspaper dates into account

Well we know it's the 1960s since Edna talks about the 50s and then we get 15 years later on screen, so I think we can take any evidence of a 1960s placement as factual.
