Talk:List of Pixar film references

Star Wars sound effects
In Toy Story 2, in the Buzz Lightyear video game, Darth Vader and Lightsaber sound effects are heard as well as a Perimeter Droid reference from Return of the Jedi and when Buzz shoots his laser its a TIE fighter sound effect. Plus, Pixar should be allowed to do that because of them being owned by Lucasfilm and their help with Skywalker Sound. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.227.174.247 (talk) 03:51, 20 January 2016 (UTC)

 * We do need to be careful about third-party, self-published blogs. JHM is typically excluded, depending on what he's writing about. The Mental Floss item, while from a fine magazine, lacks its own references as well.


 * External interview with Pixar staff confirming references: Interview with Pixar's John Lassetter by MTV has John specifically addressing putting references into Pixar films: We do little homages in our films...
 * Official Disney-Pixar book pointing out specific references: On page 297 of the Disney-Pixar published book, ISBN 978-0756654320 Pixarpedia, the introductory text for that section says Learn the significance of "A-113" and how it appears in every Disney-Pixar feature. Take a closer look at each film and spot all the secret cross references...

The /film and comingsoon items should be okay.SpikeJones (talk) 18:19, 27 February 2010 (UTC)

In Continuation of this point, reference [4] is a formspring reference... and is actually contradicted by reference [3] the JHM blog. Might want to fix that! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 184.148.129.237 (talk) 14:33, 24 July 2011 (UTC)

Toy Story 3
I'm only including the teaser trailer references and mentioning them specifically as such. If the items are not included in the film themselves then only the notes regarding the teaser trailer would remain.Pejorative.majeure (talk) 20:15, 27 February 2010 (UTC)

Tokyo Mater
Tokyo Mater is part of the Cars Toons series, it's not a separate short by itself. Not sure if it should be included in the Shorts section, even though it appeared separately in front of Bolt. Pejorative.majeure (talk) 23:42, 15 March 2010 (UTC)
 * It would be a separate short, under "shorts". It doesn't matter that it appeared with Bolt (since we don't make that distinction with the other shorts). We don't care that it is a series...especially if we're only talking about one entry. Regardless, if it is to be added, it needs to be cited properly.SpikeJones (talk) 01:27, 16 March 2010 (UTC)

Pizza Planet truck in The Incredibles
I don't care what some web page says - those pictures aren't satisfactory. Usually I'm all for strange screenshots and assertions, but those pictures don't work. If you go to that spot in the film, the particular frame they used is either of a regular yellow car that the family passes or something else. What is that something else? There is exactly one frame, when found, that resembles what it would look like if the camera was inside the truck's back hatch, looking out its side window. This particular frame from The Incredibles is actually just a view of the area underneath a highway overpass. (The white "window" area is the sunlit area in the background behind the shadowed area under th highway. The darker "inside truck" area is just the shadows and the outline of the support pillars and the other cement structures of the highway overpass.) It is NOT the Pizza Planet truck.

As much as we would all like The Truck to appear in The Incredibles, it's not there. When I was at the DVD release party for Up at Fentons, I even asked Up character art director Albert Lozano about the Pizza Planet truck being in TI. He admitted it's not there. Brad Bird simply "wasn't on the bandwagon" at the time, as one person online said (you'll notice the truck is in Ratatouille. (People on Pixar-related forums are of the same opinion about Brad Bird.) Please, can anyone back me up here? The Pizza Planet truck appears in every single one of Pixar's 10 released films EXCEPT The Incredibles. That is a verifiable fact. I just suck at proving facts. Who else believes me? -dogman15 (talk) 05:27, 17 March 2010 (UTC)
 * You asking at the party constitutes WP:OR and can't be used as proof (or unproof). If the proof is offered and you find it unsatisfactory, then that's not enough reason to remove the item.SpikeJones (talk) 02:39, 18 March 2010 (UTC)
 * If there are sources that explicitly state Pizza Planet doesn't appear, then it could be added to the article stating that the appearance of the truck is debated. Personally I don't think it is an "actual appearance" but is indeed a stretch.Pejorative.majeure (talk) 19:15, 21 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Here, let me help you: http://www.jimhillmedia.com/mb/images/upload/Pizza-Truck-Incredibles-web.jpg And no, that little spot in the screenshot (posted on Jim Hill media) that's a little bit more yellow than everything else isn't it. Here's the quote from /Film: "...although its pretty hard to find in The Incredibles as its pretty much a blur in a car sequence" - Peter Sciretta.
 * I blame Jim Hill (I assume he wrote that long post) and to a lesser extent Peter Sciretta. One last thing; go to the 4:02 mark in this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LGc894z7IPg And yes, I am raising a stink about this. dogman15 (talk) 07:03, 24 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Someone with a Twitter account needs to specifically ask a Pixar employee about the Truck in The Incredibles. That would be more definitive than anything. dogman15 (talk) 07:09, 24 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Please see also SOURCE. dogman15 (talk) 07:12, 24 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Let me help you with this: Pixarpedia "spot the pizza planet truck". This official Pixar publication says "the truck appears in every film". Even if you question where it is in The Incredibles, Pixar states unequivably that it is there. (try page 334) SpikeJones (talk) 22:51, 24 March 2010 (UTC)
 * I own that book, Pixarpedia. Page 334 is the "Cars" page. Of course, it points out the truck's appearance at the last Piston Cup race. Pages 332-333 are about The Incredibles; They do not mention the truck at all. Page 322 ("Toy Story") says "The Pizza Planet truck from Toy Story also crops up in every subsequent Disney•Pixar feature." However, I have noticed numerous other small errors in this book; statements and trivia which I know are not true - but it is unlikely anyone else cares. Further, this book (Pixarpedia) was written by Barbara Bazaldua, Steve Bynghall, Jo Casey, Glenn Dakin, Lucy Dowling, Laura Gilbert, Julia March, Catherine Saunders, and Victoria Taylor. I think they might be more aligned with Dorling Kindersley than Pixar. Unless they worked closely with guys like John Lasseter, Andrew Stanton, Pete Docter, and Brad Bird at Pixar (Yes, I know it says "Created in full collaboration with Disney•Pixar..." but that's as a business/corporation), then they may have been going on an assumption that the truck is in every film. I'm not done yet. dogman15 (talk) 00:40, 25 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Where's Martin (he's been here before)? He can confirm what he says here about it. SpikeJones (talk) 02:35, 26 March 2010 (UTC)
 * This is exactly the message board I was thinking of. I knew I had been there before. Thanks. (For outsiders reading this right now, the links here lead to the Pixar Planet message boards, specifically the thread in which they discuss the Pizza Planet trucks appearance in The Incredibles, and on the first link, 18 pages into the thread, they conclude that the truck isn't in the film.) dogman15 (talk) 21:04, 26 March 2010 (UTC)
 * I don't know if I would go that far about "concluding", BUT Martin is a good guy and knows his Pixar stuff. Unfortunately, we can't use message board postings to dispute the cited statements that exist in the real world. SpikeJones (talk) 23:15, 26 March 2010 (UTC)

Victory! Someone at Pixar (Lee Unkrich) has finally confirmed that the Pizza Planet truck is not in The Incredibles! I knew it was true all along... now we have proof. See here. Lee Unkrich, as you should know, has a very popular Twitter page. Related to this is a Question and Answer site that he has a profile on. His Twitter has been verified official and he linked to this Q&A site in a Tweet. How much more proof do you need? Case closed. dogman15 (talk) 20:10, 21 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Not victory. Brad Bird himself (the director) confirmed he had the truck discretly hidden in The Incredibles. And why is Unkrich saying this? He had nothing to do with Incredibles, so please set your facts straight. Rusted AutoParts (talk) 9:35 9 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Please prove your facts. Lee Unkrich works at Pixar and has been working there longer than Brad Bird. Lee's statement is cited and sourced, but I don't see any proof that Brad Bird said what he did. If the truck is indeed in The Incredibles like you say he says it is, he should come straight out and tell us all exactly where it is. dogman15 (talk) 19:26, 9 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes, but Bird was the director, and if he says it's in the film, it's in the film. Unkrich can say whatever he wants, but what Bird says goes. Rusted AutoParts (talk) 9:31 10 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Fine. Anything Brad Bird says about The Incredibles has priority over anything anyone else at Pixar says about The Incredibles, since he was the director and writer of that film. If he said that "he had the truck discretly hidden" in his film, then so be it. BUT! You still need to prove that Brad Bird said this. You show us proof he said it, maybe even a (high-res) screenshot, I'll gladly accept that. It's not like I'm against the truck being in the film, in fact, I'd be happy if someone could prove it's there. But as it currently stands, no one has provided a reliable screenshot of the truck in The Incredibles, and the most official source available that has been cited has said that it's not there. In conclusion, show the proof that Brad said what you say he said, and we can drop this lovely debate. {And I am having so much fun! :-)} dogman15 (talk) 22:19, 10 December 2010 (UTC)

Split of Companies/Traditions
Dinoco and BnL are referenced in different movies. It seems incongruous to simply state that every reference to Dinoco is an explicit reference to Toy Story or that every reference to BnL is also an explicit reference to Wall-E. While these companies first appeared in those films and these are indirect references to the original films, it appears that these are becoming more of a tradition along the lines of Pizza Planet, but are not quite at the same level. For example, A113 always appears. Ratzenberger always appears. A Pizza Planet truck is almost guaranteed to appear.Pejorative.majeure (talk) 19:13, 21 March 2010 (UTC)

Pictures
Shouldn't there be images of each reference (using the screen capture)as it can be easier the know each scene of all these references instead of a bunch of time frames. trainfan01

Luigi in Finding Nemo?
In the Cars section for Finding Nemo it says that Luigi (the Italian car) can be seen driving across the street. I am not sure whether this should be up here because Cars came out 3 years after this film was made and I would dought the film would already be in production. Also there is no time frame to mark where he appears (hence the citation needed) and also it is likely the same scene where the Pizza Planet Truck appears as well so because Luigi and the truck are a similar type of yellow it is possible that may have the truck mistaken for Luigi. If anyone can give any idea of this appearance discuss here. trainfan01 —Preceding undated comment added 02:22, 4 May 2010 (UTC).
 * A non-anthropomorphic Luigi (i.e. a Fiat 500) drives across the street in front of the building where Dr. Sherman's dental office is on the second floor. However, this does not occur in the Pizza Planet truck scene. It happens at the end of the film when the Tank Gang has made it to the harbor's water in their bags. If I had my DVD out, I'd give you the timecode. dogman15 (talk) 03:31, 4 May 2010 (UTC)

Exactly that is what I thought I should expand the statement to mark your said scene. trainfan01 —Preceding undated comment added 23:12, 4 May 2010 (UTC). Another Cars reference in Finding Nemo is Lightning McQueen's name. At the end, it says "For .... McQueen. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.3.132.199 (talk) 21:42, 28 February 2011 (UTC)

WALL-E in Toy Story (Incorrect)
I saw this in the article "WALL-E can be seen on the front yard of a house before Buzz and Woody land in the car. Sadly, they removed it in the Toy Story DVD 10 Year Anniversary Edition and the 3D version in theaters."

I believe this is incorrect. There was a hoax YouTube video showing Wall-e in various Pixar films, they were all of course false. The user provides no proof and is probably referencing the fake YouTube video, this would make sense why the user thinks they were removed on the DVD and in theaters. —Preceding unsigned comment added by LimeiBook86 (talk • contribs) 16:25, 18 June 2010 (UTC)

Another appearance of Pizza Planet Truck in Cars
I have a Disney Adventures magazine that was published just before Cars was released and in one section where it is giving facts and trivia about the film it states this "The Toy Story Pizza Planet delivery truck appears twice, during the "Life Is A Highway" section and inside the announcers booth during the big race". While we already know the announcers booth appearance we have stated in the article, it is also stated to appear during the part when Mack is halling Mcqueen west. However I have looked and looked during this section of the film but I can't find it. Can anyone confirm the appearance in the "Life Is A Highway" section in the film or was the first half of the statement wrong? trainfan01 —Preceding undated comment added 03:13, 20 June 2010 (UTC).

possible adjustment of Hamm in Wall-E
On the source we have of Hamm in Wall-E (where they have it accidentally misspelled it as Hammy (they probably were mixed up with the familiar character of the same name in the 2006 Dreamworks film)) amongst the comments below one of the users points out that it is not Hamm and is "just a generic piggy bank with the make-up on". Maybe an adjustment could be done to this reference on this page. trainfan01 9:42, July 12, 2010

New title?
Does anyone else think the current title ("List of Pixar film references") is not very good? It sounds like either a list of references in Pixar films to anything, or a list of anything that references Pixar films. If I could figure out a better suggestion, I'd post a move request, but I'm having trouble thinking of anything decently descriptive that's more concise than List of Pixar film references to other Pixar films, which is probably not an improvement. All I can come up with otherwise is List of Pixar inter-film references or possibly List of Pixar film inter-references, but those aren't really workable either. Any ideas?

 * The second sentence is there to provide a reliable reference for the end of the first. Without it, Wikipedia might still be plagued with the "the Pizza Planet truck appears as a 3x2 pixel blob far in the background of the final fight scene of The Incredibles" idiocy that it suffered not very long ago. — 188.29.165.252 (talk) 02:11, 14 April 2012 (UTC)

 * You need coverage in external 3rd-party sources. Just you seeing it in the film doesn't make it so. SpikeJones (talk) 16:16, 26 June 2011 (UTC)
 * I too have seen this, and I believe it appears in the IMDB article, but I don't know if IMDB is regarded as a reliable source (it should be, since although the "Trivia" and "Goofs" pages are user-contributed, those contributions are carefully vetted before publication).

Please add the following references to the article because it would only be appropriate to do so, for they count as references in Pixar films too. Under the sub-heading "Toy Story Trilogy": For "The Incredibles"- There is a restaurant seen to be called Andy's. For "Cars"- 1. a sleeping truck has the initials of 'Toy Story' (TS) 2. Lightning McQueen's number (95) is a reference to the year 1995 when 'Toy Story' was released 3. Flo is the exact same character model as Al McWiggan's car. For "Finding Nemo"- The Jack-In-A-Box from 'Toy Story 3' and the toy aeroplane Buzz gets attached onto, when tring to fly, appear in the toy box in the waiting room. Under the sub-heading "A Bug's Life": For "Toy Story 2"- The chineese food box in the Pizza Planet truck is identicle to the one Manny tried to use for his trick. Under the subheading "The Incredibles": For "Cars"- One od the sleeping trucks has the initials for 'The Incredibless' (Inc). Under the sub-heading "Luxo Jr": For "Cars"- Chick Hick's number (86) is a reference to the year 1986 when 'Luxo Jr' came out. For "Toy Story 2"- In a blooper, Slinky's rear end (seeming to have a mind of it's own) makes a squeak identicle to that of Luxo Jr. Under the sub-heading "For The Birds": For "Finding Nemo"- a boat is seen with 'For The Birds' written on it, in the same style as the original logo. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I_8x3n15L7E http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YOOfe1D_dYM&feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ROTde9SnBEU&feature=related These links will prove that I'm not making up these references.

Edit request on 25 January 2012
The tailgate lettering on early-model Toyota trucks peeled off easily, hence the numerous Toyota pickups back in the day proclaiming "TOY" and "YO" on their backsides. So the line about the Pizza Planet truck should really say that the letters were stripped or peeled off (as in, intentionally), not worn off.

Cars 2 references to Pizza Planet Truck and Brave
Hello, I have noticed that the information about the Pizza Planet truck's appearance in Cars 2, and about the Brave characters reference also in Cars 2, are a bit incorrect.

It is written that the trucks seen racing in front of Buckingham Palace. It is inferred he seen in such place in the film, which is not true. The Pizza Planet truck only appears at that place on a large Cars 2 panoramic poster. This poster can be easily found, for example on iTunes http://trailers.apple.com//705/us/media/galleries/disney/cars2/CRS2_Triptych_720.jpg. However it is not of good resolution enough, and it is necessary to see it in a game that unables to explore it on the official website: http://disney.go.com/cars/#/games/megaposter. I don't know what reliability Wikipedia would give to this. I also add that in Cars 2 the Pizza Planet Truck is also seen at the begginning of the film, on TV, just before the Mel Dorado show comes up. I have seen you consider Slash Film as a reliable source so here goes for this : http://www.slashfilm.com/cars-2-easter-eggs/.

For the Brave characters, they are incorrectly identified. The tapestry on which the characters appear is actually a car-stylized version of a tapestry that appears in Brave and that pictures the royal family (the queen at the left, and the king at the right with their children). No bear in that. It can be seen in the Japanese trailer of Brave (link: http://www.disney.co.jp/movies/merida/) --Gray Catbird (talk) 23:23, 19 March 2012 (UTC)

Accidental start?
I seem to remember (probably in one of the many "making of..." documentaries they've done) a Pixar employee (probably John Lasseter) saying that all these cross-references began by accident; when making Red's Dream they needed a texture for the floor of the circus ring, the texture they had used for the Luxo ball was available, so they used that — they weren't trying to be clever, they were just saving time and effort. However, many critics picked up on the backwards reference, so they made it a tradition for that reason.

If a cite for this can be found, it should surely be included in the article. — 188.29.165.252 (talk) 02:27, 14 April 2012 (UTC)

This can be cited to http://www.telegraph.co.uk/motoring/wheelsonfilm/2754271/Wheels-On-Film-Cars.html which claims "Lots of in-jokes are littered through the picture, the number on the train that Lightning out runs is A113, a reference to California Institute of the Arts, where many Pixar animators studied, Lightning's tires are Buzzard models manufactured by Lightyear, named after Buzz Lightyear from Toy Story." 66.102.83.61 (talk) 22:46, 6 August 2012 (UTC)

Dinoco
In List of Pixar film references, "Dinoco is a sponsor of the Piston Cup,[41]" is a bit of an understatement. In Cars (2006), Dinoco is portrayed as the most lucrative sponsor, an oil company in a world entirely populated by animated vehicles. Its owner Tex Dinoco (a longhorn stretch Cadillac limousine) has long been a supporter of veteran racer "The King #43" (voiced by Richard Petty), who is retiring after seven Piston Cup wins - a record. The plot of the entire film centres around competition between two other racecars (who are in a three-way tie with "King #43" at the end of the last race of the regular season, the "Dinoco 400") as both see a Piston Cup win in a tiebreaker race as a means to obtain the lucrative Dinoco sponsorship on The King's retirement. These cars fantasise about this lucrative sponsorship, which plays a key role in the film's plot. 66.102.83.61 (talk) 17:12, 8 August 2012 (UTC)

Under the section for references to Up, the example of a reference in Cars is actually a reference TO Cars in Up ("When Carl gets the worker's megaphone, he talks to the construction boss, and says to him, "Take a bath, hippie!". This line is a switchblade of Sarge's line to Fillmore in Cars, "Take a car wash, hippie!"'."). It should be moved to a section listing references to Cars in other movies. 99.108.140.97 (talk) 09:05, 31 August 2012 (UTC)

Lee Unkrich not a reliable source in the case that the planet pizza truck not shown in The Incredibles. See the credits of the movie The Incredibles and see that Lee Unkrich not participate in this film.So not worth the confirmation of Lee Unkrich. Thanks.

Could you add Ken Schretzmann (Cars' Editor) to the Cast and Crew Cameos section? He is credited, but it's just under "additional voices". He did the voice for the Mini Van that can be seen in the beginning when he passes Mack falling asleep. I don't think it's written down anywhere, but Ken told me himself, in person, that it is him. I am his niece, after all.

A1 13 in Monsters Inc
the A1 13 in monsters inc is supposed to be on one of the doors of the offices as mike and sully run down the hall. it was mentioned at around 19 minuites into the BBC documentary Pixar: 25 Magic Moments. (http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b00x9cdm/Pixar_25_Magic_Moments/)

Merida doll in Monsters Inc?
Watching Monsters Inc tonight, I noticed when Boo returns home, she hands Sulley her teddy bear, a Jessie doll, and a Nemo toy (as previously discussed in the main article). When Sulley tucks her into bed, there is a shelf above the bed with toys on it -- including a doll with red hair and a blue dress. Could it be a reference to Brave? There's an eleven year difference, which makes it improbable, but the fact that it appears in a scene with three other Pixar references makes me wonder. Thoughts? SireOfJunia (talk) 02:42, 9 June 2013 (UTC)

I've looked in that scene. The doll doesn't make any resemblance to Merida. So we won't be adding this to the list. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.6.182.104 (talk) 20:18, 5 May 2014 (UTC)

Mentioning The Muppets
Could I ask why The Muppets is listed? It actually says it isn't a Pixar movie, but by that logic it shouldn't count.

André's cameo appearance in Red's Dream
I tried to search for some reliable source on the internet to verify André's cameo appearance on Red's Dream as I improved my draft about the mentioned Pixar character, but I can't find it in the internet.

The only reliable source I found is the book The Art of Pixar Short Films, specifically the page 63. According to my latest edit, this citation was added on my draft's "Appearances" section.

This page shows a screenshot of Red's Dream where a lot of bicycles are shown and, from afar, a clock based on The Adventures of André & Wally B. is seen.

Is this visual citation useful to verify this Pixar reference?-- André the Android (talk) 13:42, 1 April 2021 (UTC)
