List of Pixar film references

Page semi-protected
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Beginning with Red's Dream and its references to previous Pixar short films, Pixar has included references in its films to other works produced by the studio.[1] These have included cameo appearances, references to characters, objects, and titles of works. Additionally, such easter eggs or in-jokes can refer to Pixar staff, associates, or places or events from the company's past. Lastly, some things, such as A113, Pizza Planet, or actor John Ratzenberger have appeared in the majority of Pixar films, establishing a set of traditions that subsequent Pixar films try to include.

The following is a list of all documented self-referential nods contained within Pixar films and shorts that the various filmmakers have incorporated into their movies.

Traditions

A113

A113 is an Easter egg that has been inserted into several animated television shows and feature films[1][2] as a homage to a classroom at CalArts, the alma mater of former Pixar/Disney executive John Lasseter and director Brad Bird, among others. Bird was the first to use the A113 Easter egg,[3] on a car license plate in an animated segment entitled Family Dog in a 1987 episode of the television series Amazing Stories.

  • Monsters, Inc. – On the news broadcast on TV, the newcasters are shaped like "A" and "1", while the background says 13. Additionally, when Randall gets beaten up in the caravan, the stars in the sky can be connected to read A113.[7]

  • Incredibles 2 – A113 is spray-painted on the dumpster behind which Frozone is hiding from the Underminer's attack. The model name of the runaway maglev train that Elastigirl stops is MGLV-A113. Also, A113 is on the door of the editing room of Devtech, and it appears as the document code on the International Superhero Accord. Near the end of the film, Tony and Violet are going on a date at a movie theater showing a movie called "Dementia 113".[7][10]

  • Inside Out 2 – The secret vault that holds Bloofy, Lance and Deep Dark Secret is labeled ACXIII, which is A113 in Roman numerals.[29]

John Ratzenberger

Described as "Pixar's good luck charm" by John Lasseter, actor John Ratzenberger played a role in every Pixar feature from Toy Story to Onward,[12][30] including a few not produced by Pixar.[a] Soul is the first film where John Ratzenberger uses his likeness instead of a voice role,[31] while he is not present at all in Luca,[32] Turning Red, Lightyear, or Elemental.

Pizza Planet

Pizza Planet is a fictional pizza restaurant that appears in Toy Story.[45] In the film, it is a large, sci-fi-themed restaurant with arcade games including robot guards at the entrance. The company runs a fleet of derelict Toyota Hilux pickup trucks (as evidenced by the inscription on the tailgate; it is a Toyota inscription with the first and last two letters, "TO" and "TA", worn off so it simply appears as "YO") with a rocket on the roof featuring the restaurant's logo, as seen in Toy Story, Toy Story 2, and Toy Story 3 (though in Toy Story 2, the truck model is called a "Gyoza" as seen on the owner's manual). There is a Pizza Planet reference in every Pixar feature film[46] to date except for the 2004 film The Incredibles. Lee Unkrich confirmed that there is no Pizza Planet truck anywhere in The Incredibles.[34][47] Director Brad Bird said that he was too busy making the film to tell the animation team to insert the truck.[48]
