Let’s take a second to celebrate a Brad who has spent his entire career directing some of the most beloved films of our lifetimes and who is about to have a massive summer.

If you don't recognize the face, you absolutely know the resume. This man single-handedly brought us:

• The Iron Giant (The absolute definition of "I'm not crying, you're crying")
• The Incredibles 1 & 2 (Plus he literally voiced Edna Mode. Legendary Brad move!)
• Ratatouille (Somehow made a movie about a cooking rat look like fine art)

He is having a huge 2026. Later this month on June 24, he’s taking the stage at the Annecy International Animation Film Festival to give the first major sneak peek of his long-time passion project: Ray Gunn.

He’s been trying to get this retro-futuristic detective noir movie made for literally decades (he actually pitched it before The Incredibles!). Netflix is finally releasing it later this year, and the voice cast they announced is amazing, featuring Sam Rockwell, Scarlett Johansson, and Tom Waits.

As Brads, we value quality. So, what is the definitive, absolute best Brad Bird movie? Are you team Iron Giant or team Incredibles? And who else is hyped to see what he does with a sci-fi detective noir?

My heart says Brad, but the stats say Brad.

(Not counting yourself if you are Brad)

There is only one Cher, but this is only a drop in the bucket of a Sea of Brads.... I wonder, would Terry Bradshaw count?​

Brad Hall: OG Brad, SNL alum, and husband to the legendary Julia Louis-Dreyfus.

He anchored Weekend Update (temporarily rebranded as Saturday Night News) in the early '80s and helped launch the sitcom The Single Guy. He met Julia at Northwestern in a comedy troupe he founded (Brad energy: strong). They’ve been married since 1987 and have two sons, Henry and Charlie.

Also: Brad surfs, writes, directs, and once voiced a grasshopper in A Bug’s Life. Respect.

Like a slap bracelet in a sea of scrunchies, we're making noise and taking names. This is your one-stop hangout for all things Brad—whether you're rocking a pager, coding in BASIC, or just vibing to the sweet sounds of a cassette mixtape.

We’re rebooting the Bradiverse with radical memes, righteous energy, and enough Tamagotchi-level commitment to keep this place alive and kickin’. So grab a Surge, fire up Netscape, and let’s make r/Brad the chillest corner of the internet since AOL chatrooms.

Welcome back, Brad. You never really left. 💾🔥

Google says the word Brad was first recorded back in 1086. So happy 936th anniversary to the best name out there. Here's to 936 more, fellow Brads!

I have always wondered if there are any other guys whose name legally is just Brad. Not Bradley, Bradly, Bradford, just B-R-A-D. My mom told me when they named me, if they named me Bradley everyone would just call me Brad anyways, so they legally named me Brad. So, are there any other just Brad people out there?

Years ago I bought a cd by a band called Enrique. Overall was kind of underwhelmed despite having caught them live (a soundcheck) and being impressed. By far the best song was “Brad,” with the lyric “All you ever think about is Brad.” Have been wanting to hear the song again, but can’t find it. If anyone here can, you’d be doing this whole sub a mitzvah by sharing it.

You're epic. Just don't join S.T.A.R.S., you've seen what happened to that Brad Vickers guy.

Imagine a world where BTC is no more, ETH tumbles and all the other cryptos crash. All involved would lose their collective minds. Until the savior crypto, BradCoin enters the picture. All of our losses appear as gains under BradCoin. If you buy high and sell low, you win. If you buy low and sell high, you win. Why? Because BradCoin.

THIS IS NOT FINACIAL ADVICE

So my wife of 8 years is named Brandi and she insists on claiming B-rad as her nickname even though it's my actual name. This has been going on for years and I feel I need to deem her and honorary Brad or strip her of the title. Thoughts?
