This article has been sitting in a cold and lonely Firefox tab for a few days without comment so I figured it's a good idea to finally post a link to it at least. It's entitled Why 2008 Will Be An Awesome Year For Movies. My interpretation of that title is this: The Dark Knight, Indiana Jones, Iron Man, and two Rambos. Give or take a little Pixar and what we're promised will be an improvement to the Hulk franchise and it looks to be shaping up to being a good year.

Was that Rémy the rat from Ratatouille that you saw in the background of Toy Story 2? Well… probably not. But there are plenty of callbacks and cameos in the collective works of Pixar, from the overt to the barely visible. Jim Hill has quite a comprehensive (or at least very long) investigation of the studio's self-reference.

Hill goes into impressive detail, even citing the appearance of the birds from For the Birds in Cars. Said appearance lasts only a tenth of a second.
