1. The Incredibles Family Appears in Finding Nemo
In a scene at the dentist’s office in Finding Nemo, when the dentist is taking care of his granddaughter Darla, a frightened child in the waiting room is holding a comic book featuring Mr. Incredible from The Incredibles.
2. How Disney Hints at Its Upcoming Movies
In 2009, Disney released the film Up, which became a tremendous success. However, few noticed that in the scene where the house flies past the window of a little girl’s room, Lotso, the antagonist from Toy Story 3, makes a cameo appearance. Similarly, in the witch’s house from Brave (2012), you can spot Sulley, the main character from Monsters University, in a wood-carved picture.
3. The Name “Andy” on Woody’s Boots Wasn’t Written by Andy?
In Toy Story 2, Woody is a very old doll that many collectors covet. However, few know that before belonging to Andy Jr., this brave cowboy may have belonged to Andy’s father. Thus, the name “Andy” on Woody’s boots was not actually written by Andy.
4. The Pizza Delivery Car
If you didn’t notice, the famous Pizza Planet delivery truck appears in most films released after its debut in Toy Story, including Brave, Monsters University, WALL-E, Bugs, and Finding Nemo.
5. Zootopia Features Animal Versions of Disney Characters
Pixar never misses an opportunity to subtly remind us of the films they have released and will release. In Zootopia, the filmmakers cleverly included their iconic characters like Baymax (Big Hero 6), Princess Rapunzel (Tangled), and Ralph (Wreck-It Ralph) as animals, delighting many viewers.
6. Lilo Has a Mulan Poster in Her Room
In fact, Mulan was the first film released just before Lilo & Stitch. Therefore, in this film, you can see a poster of Mulan in Lilo’s room.
7. The Battery Buzz Carries is from the Same Brand as WALL-E’s Robot
In Toy Story 3, Buzz encounters a malfunction and begins to act strangely. While Woody tries to help him return to normal, Buzz reveals that his battery is from the Buy n Large brand, the same company that manufactured WALL-E’s robot.
8. The Train Station Scene in Wreck-It Ralph
In the imaginative world that animators create for their stories, many places are inspired by real life. Landscapes, castles, city skylines, or in this case, train stations. When the characters of Wreck-It Ralph want to leave their game, they travel through an electric connection to the Central Station, which is actually inspired by the real Grand Central Station, a bustling hub in New York.
