This is not a joke. I was at a premier showing tonight, and my immediate thought was how disasterously unsafe this movie is for my photosensitive epilepic friends. @markingatlightspeed Iâm tagging you with this specifically because this would be extremely dangerous for you to watch.
There are multiple scenes in this movie with full-screen, black-and-white flashing strobe effects. They all happen without warning, and last anywhere between a few seconds to more than two minutes. In a darkened movie theater, this means the likelihood of a seizure could be VERY HIGH if you are sensitive to these effects.
If you have photosensitive epilepsy or another disorder that is triggered by strobe lights, I would highly recommend you DO NOT SEE THE INCREDIBLES 2 IN THEATERS. Wait until the movieâs released on digital/Bluray, and you can watch it in a fully-lit room, with someone with you who will be able to help if the strobe effects do trigger a seizure.
Please stay safe.
It is really unlikely that Disney/Pixar failed to run the Harding Test on on a major movie. Such a failure would be an enormous PR nightmare. However, even flashing sequences that pass the Harding Test can still cause migraines and discomfort for people who are photosensitive.Â
So if you have a condition that causes sensitivity to strobe effects, it might be wise to follow OPâs advice and wait for the DVD release of this movie. Otherwise, this movie is probably perfectly safe and Disney probably did do itâs due diligence to make sure that it would be safe.Â
At this point, unless we start hearing reports of people having seizures in the theater we can probably safely assume that Disney/Pixar did their job and had the film run through Harding Test software like they are supposed to.Â
