The Incredibles (2004)

[ 1950's - 1960's ]                                 

Superheroes maintained order in the world. But Buddy, a wannabe superhero, created two things for the demise of superpowered humans: self-serving A.I. bots like the "Omnidroid," and the high tech Zero Point Energy (electromagnetic energy that exists in a vacuum). This is the pivotal moment where we see machines eradicating their only threat−supers.

Eventually, toys start to absorb and draw their powers from Zero Point Energy, unseen energy that travels in wavelengths.
