A Closer Look At Some Amazing Disney Photos: Hidden Details
Mostly in the world of cartoons, Disney films exceed the standards. For several years, a team of animators, writers and directors works on each project. In general, all the details in these films improve the plot. True, the movies contain much more than the eye meets, but only die-hard Disney fans can find out. In Disney movies, there are many hidden Easter Eggs, cameos, and witches that anyone can find with time.
Scar’s Claws Are Always Out
We were unaware of this minor detail as children, but we are now fully conscious of it. As a result, you won’t be able to avoid seeing these in the classic Disney film The Lion King in the future. Despite the fact that almost every lion in the film appears to have his claws retracted at all times, this is not the case. They’re only sent out when they’re needed. The only one who qualifies as an exception is ‘Scar.’ As the nasty and scheming character he is, his black, razor-sharp claws are always out.
Hans is a wanted man.
You would think that Disney movies have predictable endings, but this is far from the case. The character Hans from the Disney film Frozen, for example, is rude and pompous.
Hans Is A Wanted Man
We never found out what happened after he was arrested, as he was arrested and deported to his nation shortly after the film was released. However, a little detail in one of Big Hero 6’s scenes provides a hint. The police station has a wanted poster with a photo of Hans on it. As a result, he’s clearly still a bad guy.
Maui’s hook is always with him
Maui, Moana’s deuteragonist, is a cocky demigod who reluctantly helps Moana in her quest. One of his many fascinating powers is the ability to shape-shift thanks to his magical hook. Many people felt there was a story hole here because where does the hook go when Maui isn’t in his natural form?
Maui’s Hook Is Always With Him
Rather than disregarding the issue, Disney devised the ultimate solution. The hook shows as markings on whichever body Maui is in when he shape-shifts. It’s quite clever!
Tangled’s nod to previous princesses
Throughout the previous few decades, Disney films have increasingly made reference to some of the Disney family’s earlier classics. Easter eggs are small objects or images that appear in the background of sequences that pays tribute to another film and are hidden in plain sight, as they’re known among film fans.
Tangled’s Nod To Previous Princesses
Tangled’s Rapunzel bedroom, for example, contains references to various Disney princesses. These are only a handful of the options. The spindle, of course, is a reference to Aurora from Sleeping Beauty, while the dresser is a nod to Beauty And The Beast.
Pixar’s phone number on the control panel
In the 2001 movie Monsters, Inc., there are many unique details, but this one you could have missed. Although it’s visible only for a split second, some dedicated fans have taken the effort to magnify. The number displayed on the control panel of the scare simulator is not random.
Pixar’s Phone Number On The Control Panel
510-752-3000 is the current Pixar animation studio contact information. Or that’s what the phone number used to be, at least. Obviously, things may have changed since then in almost two decades.
The inspiration behind the toy soldiers walking
It’s not a hidden detail in the film, but it’s always a cool picture that is hard to ignore. The creative team of Toy Story had to find out how the soldiers could go and sprint though the boards beneath their feet.
The Inspiration Behind The Toy Soldiers Walking
A wooden board was affixed to the ground and numerous shoes were taped to it, allowing the animators to walk in this fashion. Talk about animators who use the method acting approach!
Tiny, cool detail in Brave
Throughout the ‘Brave’ movie, the arrow skills of Merida are famous and she is competing in an archery competition in this scene. The plumb lands on her cheek because she’s so determined to hit the target with her arrow. When she releases it, the arrow leaves a bit scratch.
Tiny, Cool Detail In Brave
If this little element were not included in the animators, no moviegoer would have noticed. But such passion and a quest for perfection bring Disney pictures to a new level.
A hidden thank you letter
It’s a heartfelt Easter egg that has nothing to do with previous Disney movies. For example, we see adoption papers in the famous scene in which Lilo and her big sister go to the shelter to adopt a dog.
A Hidden Thank You Letter
There isn’t just a bunch of nonsense scrawled on the paper. Everyone who contributed to the film’s creation receives a heartfelt thank you in this letter. Everyone was taken aback because the text was written by the directors and producers.
The ice in Olaf’s glass
In Summer, Olaf, the charming snowman sidekick from the Disney film Frozen, performs a solo song that has become an instant classic. During the musical piece, he daydreams about being on summer vacation.
The Ice In Olaf’s Glass
A cool drink with ice cubes is in his hand as he relaxes on a beach in one of his dream vacation scenarios. Pay close attention and you will discover that the ice cubes have been shaped into a mini-Olaf.
The Shining carpet
Did the carpet in Sid’s house in Toy Story ever look like it could be from somewhere else? Because it is. For some reason, the carpet is one of a number of references to The Shining that appear in the Toy Story franchise.
The Shining Carpet
The carpet looks just like the one in the eerie hotel where the events of The Shining are set. Room 237 is written on the number plate of a waste truck, and there are other tributes to Tony (the guy who lived in Danny’s mouth) to be discovered.
Nick’s criminal past
Nick is a sneaky but charming fox who discovers in Zootopia that he has a golden heart. However, he makes several incredibly questionable judgments at the outset of the film. In one short sequence, you probably missed a good little joke about Nick’s questionable career path prior to applying to the Zootopia Police Department.
Nick’s Criminal Past
When you zoom in on the application, you can see that Nick first checked “yes” for the question “have you ever been arrested.” He then crossed it out and substituted the word “yes” for the word “no.”
Well hidden Mickey Mouse
Another character that almost always appears in new Disney movies is Mickey Mouse. Mickey has to go to great lengths to conceal himself to keep them from spotting him, so it’s nearly impossible to catch him.
Well, Hidden Mickey Mouse
Rajah, the tiger, is transformed back into her natural tiger form in this scene from Aladdin. And for a brief moment, her head resembles Mickey Mouse, nearly impossible to notice without pausing (just with tiger colors).
A visit from our favorite tea set
Tarzan makes a Beaty And The Beast reference that’s hard to miss. It’s not just any old tea set that Jane brings to the jungle. Mrs. Potts, Chip, and the rest of the Potts family from Beauty And The Beast are clearly visible.
A Visit From Our Favorite Tea Set
One of the few in-movie songs begins when the jungle animals come across the English explorers’ campsite with all these foreign objects. And the tea set from Beauty and the Beast is transformed into a drum set.
The most famous genie lamp
Frozen was to the 2010s what Aladdin was to the 1990s. To put it another way, it was the most popular and iconic Disney film of the decade. Anyone born in the 1980s or 1990s grew up memorizing nearly every Genie line.
The Most Famous Genie Lamp
So, unfortunately, this classic was more than deserving of a mention in Moana, but it was so brief that it was easy to overlook. The Genie’s Lamp is right there in the corner when they’re looking at all the gold in Tamatoa’s lair.
Scar got what he deserved
Zazu, who is sassy and often comes up with witty remarks, has some of the most memorable lines in The Lion King, such as his suggestion to turn Scar into a rug. However, certainly, the Disney creative team did not do it.
Scar Got What He Deserved
Hercules was the highly anticipated Disney film of 1997, three years after The Lion King. And there’s a scene in it where Hercules pulls out a large rug. It appears to be made from the fur of a lion, but not just any lion. That’s Scar, who, as he deserved and as Zazu suggested, ended up like a rug.
Rapunzel visiting Anna
Even if we’ve all seen Frozen a million times, this is a detail that even the most ardent re-watcher might miss. Anna can barely contain her joy when Arendelle’s gates finally open after being shut for so long.
Rapunzel Visiting Anna
This is showed in her solo For The First Time In Forever, in which we see a slew of curious guests arrives for Elsa’s coronation day. Rapunzel can also be seen in the crowd for a brief moment. So it’s understandable that she’d be friends with Elsa and Anna.
The Beast in Aladdin
Aladdin’s sweet child-like Sultan enjoys playing with toys, and he has a collection that we can see a few times throughout the film. However, we only get to see them up close and personal once. And there he is as soon as we do!
The Beast In Aladdin
The Beast from Beauty And The Beast sits among the camels, giraffes, rhinos, and other exotic animals. This homage makes a lot of sense, given that Aladdin was released a year after Beauty And The Beast.
A visit from the Aladdin rug
The Princess And The Frog, released in 2009, was a true return to Disney’s roots because the studio used classic 2D animation for the first time since all of the iconic Disney movies of the 1990s.
A Visit From The Aladdin Rug
While newer films are fantastic, many fans still prefer the aesthetic of classics like The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, and Aladdin. Of course, this was acknowledged in The Princess And The Frog, not only by the animation style but also by this cameo from the Aladdin magic carpet.
Anna and Elsa in Zootopia
Frozen, Disney’s most successful film of the 2000s has already established itself as an iconic classic alongside The Lion King. As a result, we can probably expect many references to it in future Disney films. In fact, there have already been a number of them.
Anna And Elsa In Zootopia
There is a scene in the 2016 Zootopia where we see a fish market. Outside, two small elephants are walking among the other animals, and upon closer inspection, they are dressed as Elsa and Anna.
Adjusting to international audiences
It’s easy to overlook how intricately Disney films are produced. The films are sold worldwide, even though they are made in America and are in English. Furthermore, children in Japan, Norway, and Italy do not understand or speak English.
Adjusting To International Audiences
It’s easier to make changes for international versions of Disney films because of all the adaptations that need to be made. This, for example, takes place in Toy Story 2, where the American flag was changed to a globe.
Flounder making a cameo
Hey, we’re familiar with that fish! It’s not Nemo, but Flounder from The Little Mermaid, a much older and beloved fish character. Most Disney fans expected references to The Little Mermaid in Moana.
Flounder Making A Cameo
After all, both films feature an ocean theme and a strong female protagonist, making them Disney movie cousins. But it was easy to miss this small nod because it was so subtle. It occurs while Maui is singing, and a school of fish passes by, one of which is the adorable Flounder.
Cinderella feels trapped
The majority of Disney films contain a lot of symbolism and themes beyond the comprehension of most children. But it’s precise because of this that these films are so brilliant. Children, adults, and film students will all enjoy the various layers of the film.
Cinderella Feels Trapped
This scene is very dark and somber, which anyone of any age can notice. However, as children, we were oblivious that the massive window cast a cage-like shadow. This represents Cinderella’s sense of being trapped.
The Frozen/Moana sisterhood
Frozen and Moana are very different in some ways, but they also have a lot in common. They take place in two climates and cultures that are vastly different. However, they both feature strong, brave female protagonists who face significant obstacles throughout the films. So it’s not surprising that the 2016 Moana movie included a nod to big sister Frozen.
The Frozen/Moana Sisterhood
During her family’s time-honored traditions and history lessons, Moana’s father shows her a tapestry depicting a monstrous-looking creature. And it’s a snow monster called Marshmallow from the film Frozen.
Why Gaston didn’t use his gun
Disney creators are known for their meticulous attention to detail, and they make every effort to stick to facts as much as possible. That may seem strange, given how many Disney films occur in made-up worlds populated by talking animals and magical creatures. However, it helps in the credibility of the storylines.
Why Gaston Didn’t Use His Gun
Consider the following scene. Why would Gaston use a bow in this battle if he is known as the best shot and is constantly armed? To be honest, it was raining. Gunpowder and water do not mix.
Mickey Mouse in the food
Here’s another difficult-to-find Mickey Mouse nod in a contemporary Disney film. A visually stunning screen depicts children and their food from above in the 2000 film The Emperor’s New Groove. However, the food in those bowls appears to be a little strange…
Mickey Mouse In The Food
Close inspection reveals a very simplified Mickey Mouse shape; three black dots, one of which is larger and could be a nose. Is it a coincidence? We doubt it.
Taking a jab at Six Flags
In the world of amusement parks, Disney and Six Flags have long been fierce rivals. So it’s only natural that Disney will poke fun at their rivals in the best way they know how: through their films.
Taking A Jab At Six Flags
Maurice is lost in the woods and discovers these signs in this scene from Beauty And The Beast. Anaheim, a real Disneyland location, is indicated by a sign pointing to a bright path. However, a sign pointing down a dark, scary road reads Valencia, a Six Flags attraction.
A gargoyle that looks like Pumbaa
Timon and Pumbaa, the endearing meerkat and warthog duo from The Lion King, are possibly the most adored Disney characters of all time. During the height of the Lion King craze, you could find these two’s franchises all over the place.
A Gargoyle That Looks Like Pumbaa
They also make cameo appearances in other Disney films. For example, notice in the film The Hunchback of Notre Dame, when the gargoyles on the cathedral appear, one of them has a tail, like Pumbaa from The Lion King.
Blink, and you’ll miss it
There is a scene in which a bulletin board is seen in the background in Wreck-It Ralph. There are several sheets of paper and a few notes strewn about the table. Then, finally, there is one of them, with a lipstick kiss on it.
Blink And You’ll Miss It
The great majority of Wreck-It Ralph viewers would have no reason to believe this. However, it’s a subtle nod to the lesser-known Disney short Paperman. It’s about a man on the lookout for a woman who left a kiss on a piece of paper. Someone should inform that individual that we have discovered it.
More Toy Story 4 Easter eggs
Toy Story contains a lot of Easter eggs, but Toy Story 4 from 2019 takes the cake. The animators couldn’t help themselves, perhaps because there had been so many great Disney films released in the last two decades. Here are two examples of what I’m talking about.
More Toy Story 4 Easter Eggs
It was discovered that the grape soda bottle cap found is a reference to the one in the film “Up,” and at the carnival, you can see the guitar designs from the Pixar film “Coco.” It’s pretty subtle. However, it was still clear enough for us to catch it.
Lion King WWII reference
Disney films are intended for children and, for the most part, take place in made-up worlds, so tragic events from the real world are rarely included in the plots. But, of course, that is how we all prefer it to be. Disney movies, after all, are supposed to make us laugh and feel good. However, now and then, a subtle reference to current events can be found.
Lion King WWII Reference
As illustrated in The Lion King, Scar delivers a speech to his hyena soldiers. The visuals around him bear many parallels to the Nazi Germany that existed during World War II.
Lilo is a Mulan fan
Lilo & Stitch, released in 2002, can almost be considered a forerunner to the subsequent massive blockbusters Frozen and Moana. Lilo is a fierce, strong-willed young lady who was a far cry from the typical Disney “princess” films of the 1980s and 1990s.
Lilo Is A Mulan Fan
The damsel in distress trope had worn out its welcome, and audiences craved more complex and entertaining female leads. Lilo certainly delivered on that front, and the film includes several Mulan references as a nod to another strong female Disney lead.
Changed pizza toppings
Children are notoriously picky eaters, but their preferences vary greatly across countries and cultures. From an American perspective, it’s understandable that broccoli isn’t a favorite vegetable among children. So that’s the pizza topping used in Inside Out to make the pizza appear disgusting.
Changed Pizza Toppings
Broccoli, on the other hand, appears to be a favorite of Japanese children. So instead, bell peppers were chosen for the Japanese version. This is amusing to us because bell peppers on pizza are a common and popular topping among children.
Mother Gothel is always touching Rapunzel’s hair
Tangled’s Mother Gothel is evil from the start, which is painfully obvious to the audience. Unfortunately, Rapunzel, sweet but naive, is not as quick to notice the red flags.
Mother Gothel is always touching Rapunzel’s hair
The way Mother Gothel always touches her blonde hair when saying “I love you most” is one of the clever ways to show us she doesn’t give a damn about her “daughter.” So she’s basically admitting that she likes Rapunzel’s magical hair more than she likes Rapunzel herself.
Aunt Cass on the screen
Wreck-It Ralph is the perfect franchise for some really clever easter eggs to be snuck in because of how modern it is. There are numerous references to video games, TV shows, and even other Disney films, and this one is one of our favorites.
Aunt Cass On The Screen
When Ralph is shown a tablet with an advertisement on it, you can just say that the model on the screen is a very familiar face. Aunt Cass from Big Hero 6 is there! Big Hero 6 is one of our favorite films, so it’s always exciting to see it get some attention.
Build your own Olaf
We’re not sure when it happened, but Olaf became one of our favorite Disney characters… ever, at some point in either the first or second Frozen film. We can’t help but admire his writing because it is consistently smart and funny. We sometimes wish we could just build our own Olaf and have him hang out with us.
Build Your Own Olaf
As it turns out, we are not the first to think that, as there are pieces of Olaf scattered throughout Moana. The only thing they’re missing is snow! But, unfortunately, that may be difficult to obtain…
A portrait of an alien
Big Hero 6 never received the critical acclaim it deserved, and we’re a little bummed about it. Nevertheless, it’s an excellent film with engaging characters, and it demonstrates an attention to detail that many other Disney films lack. For example, consider the following random screenshot.
A Portrait Of An Alien
Instead of merely putting random images in the backdrop, the film’s writers decided to have a little fun and sneak everyone’s favorite extraterrestrial into the picture. As a result, the background image is of none other than Stitch himself!
We can’t lie about this one
Frozen, which was released in 2013 and introduced Elsa to the world, rendered almost all other Disney princesses obsolete. However, there was a brief period when the film Tangled threatened to take the world by storm, much like Frozen did later.
We Can’t Lie About This One
Despite not being as well-known as Frozen, Tangled is still a fantastic film that we enjoy revisiting. Keep an eye out for Pinocchio in this scene the next time you see it. He’s hard to see, but he’s near the top of this shot.
An ode to an all-time classic movie in Meet the Robinsons
Meet the Robinsons is a Disney film that has largely been forgotten over time, but we love that it took the time to pay homage to some of our favorite Disney classics. Take a look at this scene for an excellent illustration. Some posters can be seen in the background while this Little League game is being played.
An Ode To An All-Time Classic Movie In Meet The Robinsons
When you pause the movie for just one second, you can see that it is an advertisement for the classic animated movie The Jungle Book, one of the best-animated movies ever made!
The Little Chicken King
This is a classic scene, to say the least. Isn’t it amazing how just looking at it transports you to a foreign grassland full of fantastic creatures? The lions, tigers, and… chickens are already visible. Wait, you’re telling us this is from Chicken Little’s opening scene, not The Lion King’s?
The Little Chicken King
The intention behind this shot from Chicken Little was to invoke the same emotional response that the beginning of The Lion King did, and it absolutely works. To think that Chicken Little would do something like this is quite amusing.
Look, we found Nemo!
Why did it take an entire film to track out Nemo? We found him in around three seconds after looking at this photo… This picture isn’t even from the Finding Nemo movie.
Look, We Found Nemo!
This is a screen capture from Brother Bear. A few fish emerge from the water as the bears’ search for a tasty lunch. To see this one, you’ll have to be quick with the pause button, but Nemo actually jumps out of the water for less than a second. He’s only visible for one frame, in fact.
Lilo’s favorite stuffed animal
Lilo and Stitch was a unique Disney film in that it introduced us to characters who were different from the norm. Stitch was obviously not what most people expected from a Disney film, and Lilo was no exception. The majority of the female characters in the film are female.
Lilo’s Favorite Stuffed Animal
Disney movies are known for being submissive, but Lilo is a fiery character despite her young age. But she is still a child at the end of the day. You might not think of her as someone who collects stuffed animals, but she does, including Dumbo!
Jose sitting in the jury
Hold on to your hats, and get your Wikipedia ready for this one. The original Alice in Wonderland film from the 1950s is one of the most influential cartoons ever made. It was mind-bending and surreal, and it made many people realize that animation was an art form worth respecting. The courtroom scene, on the other hand, will leave you scratching your head.
Jose Sitting In The Jury
We say this primarily because of one character: Jose Carioca. However, this bird appeared in an even earlier and less well-known Disney film, Saludos Amigos, released in 1942.
The writing says it all
Mulan is a timeless classic, but there were a few elements of the film that we missed as children. We understood that Mulan was a formidable woman, but we were unaware of the film’s commentary on gender roles. This was something we also missed out on. There is a grave in the background of this scene that is covered in writing.
The Writing Says It All
If you’ve already seen the movie, you know that it is simply the film credits when this writing is translated. This provides a great and clever way of acknowledging the creators of the movie.
Mickey rocking out in the pit
The majority of the time, Mickey Mouse appears in Disney films in extremely subtle ways. This one is a lot less subtle than many others, but it still slipped past us the first time we saw A Goofy Movie. The camera cuts out to the audience during Powerline’s concert in the film, showing people rocking out and enjoying the music.
Mickey Rocking Out In The Pit
Mickey Mouse is a unique character among the many unnamed characters, and this is highlighted here by him being the one dancing. He does not even try to hide, but he still blends in just enough to be a challenge to find.
We want to watch those movies
Zootopia was absolutely hilarious, and the film did a fantastic job of balancing kid-friendly humor with jokes that were really only meant for adults. So, for example, while the painfully slow DMV sloths were likely amusing to children, they were hilarious to adults who had previously dealt with slow DMV employees.
We want to Watch Those Movies
When animal-themed versions of Disney movies were shown, it was another amusing detail that some adults picked up on. Despite being set in a wilderness where animals are plentiful, every classic in the movie is based around animals, as one might expect, given the location.
A story about bugs’ lives in Toy Story
Disney enjoys making references to their older films in their newer films, and Pixar films follow suit. Toy Story is an incredibly charming film, but it gets even better once you start paying attention to the finer points. For example, Mrs. Potato Head can be seen reading a book in this scene.
A Story About Bugs’ Lives In Toy Story
That does not seem particularly remarkable, does it? To be sure, take a closer look. She is currently reading a book about some ants that look suspiciously familiar. That is correct; those are A Bug’s Life’s ants!
Pinch us; we must be dreaming!
Few Disney characters have the ability to make us laugh as much as Genie from Aladdin. The voice acting was fantastic, and he never failed to inject a witty line into a scene, no matter how dire the situation. But, of course, there were times when we were laughing at him instead of with him!
Pinch Us; We Must Be Dreaming!
Genie gets his finger pinched by a crab in this scene, which is hilarious. But hold on a second, that isn’t just any crab pinching him. Sebastian from Ariel’s The Little Mermaid! How did he end up there…?
Some of our favorite characters hanging out under the sea
Speaking of The Little Mermaid, there’s a well-hidden Mickey in this film that most of us would have missed if it weren’t for the efforts of super Disney sleuths on the Internet. Mickey, Goofy, and Donald Duck are all hanging out under the sea with the rest of the characters if you look closely in this scene.
Some Of Our Favorite Characters Hanging Out Under The Sea
We’re not sure how they’ll cope with being submerged for so long, but hey, it’s a cartoon. It’s all about having a good time, not about being realistic! The animators deserve credit for sneaking this in.
The Rock joke
Good old Hei-Hei, the entertaining and relatively dim-witted rooster sidekick in Moana, always does the most peculiar things. When he gets the chance, one of them will be eating rocks.
The Rock Joke
He then tries to chomp down on Maui’s finger at some point. This isn’t just a funny movie scene; it’s also a clever pun. Because Maui is voiced by none other than Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson in the original English-language version of Moana…
A nod to Jurassic Park
Easter eggs have been hidden throughout the Toy Story franchise, but some aren’t tied to Disney movies. Unfortunately, this scene is all too familiar to the majority of us.
A Nod To Jurassic Park
In the first (and most iconic) Jurassic Park film, the T-Rex chases the car, and we see the terrifying creature in the side view mirror in one frame. It’s an iconic frame, especially when combined with the warning text “objects in mirror are closer than they appear.” And it was replicated in Toy Story 2, albeit with the much less intimidating Rex.
Really dark, Disney
The animators who work for Disney may be making kids’ movies for a living, but that doesn’t mean that they don’t give other mature humor a chance from time to time.
Really Dark, Disney
Check out this morbid joke that, back in 1933, when the animated short Three Little Pigs first aired, probably went completely over the kids’ heads. The mother of the young pigs is depicted in all of the pictures as a sow. But poor old dad, he’s always been a pork cut or sausage, never a live pig…
Andy’s red string
The more Toy Story films that have been released, the more impressed we have become. Not only are the plots and characters fantastic, but the creators are also masters of continuity. They don’t overlook any of the previous installment details.
Andy’s Red String
Do you recall how Andy’s arm was ripped off in Toy Story 2? In Toy Story 4, the red string he used to repair it is still visible, creating a toy version of a scar. So again, Pixar and Disney have done an excellent job.
Nala’s fight maneuver saved the day
Modern Disney films like Tangled, Frozen, and Moana are all about female empowerment. The days of the female lead being a princess damsel in distress are long gone. However, even older Disney films contain some truly inspirational and strong female characters. As in the Lion King’s Nala.
Nala’s Fight Maneuver Saved The Day
When they’re cubs, she’s Simba’s best friend, and she’s just as curious, clever, and brave as he is. But she’s also the more capable fighter. She is, in fact, the one who teaches Simba the move that eventually aids him in defeating Scar.
Tim Allen nod in Toy Story
Have you ever paid attention to the names of the toys that Sid plays with in Toy Story? If not, you should. After all, it wasn’t just picked at random, was it? The word “Binford” is written on the toolbox, which is a carefully hidden reference.
Tim Allen Nod In Toy Story
Binford is a fictional hardware store that appeared on the show in the 1990s and sponsored the hit sitcom Home Improvement. Tim Allen was the show’s star. Inevitably, Tim Allen is the actor who voices Buzz Lightyear.
The Brave nod in Cars 2
What is the connection between ‘Brave’ and ‘Cars’? Well, not much, but they’re both Disney movies, so there’s that. That this Cars 2 Brave reference isn’t that surprising. In Cars 2, a random tapestry appears in the background of one scene.
The Brave Nod In Cars 2
Extra-observant viewers who paid close attention may have observed that this appears to be a distinct animated tapestry than the previous one. That is correct; it is the character Brave (just in a design that fits the Cars animated style).
