Cameos

  • During the preview of the escape plan, the Pizza Planet truck drives past.
  • During the closing credits, Mike Wazowski snorkels by.
  • A boy in the dentist's waiting room is reading a Mr. Incredible comic book.
  • The dentist office waiting room includes a Buzz Lightyear toy on the floor.
  • At the end when the fish are escaping from the dentist's office, Luigi from Cars drives past.

In-Jokes

  • When Marlin and Dory ask the school of fish for directions to get to Sydney, the scene is similar to the scene in the movie's own teaser trailer.

Other trivia

  • This is the first time blood was seen in a Pixar movie. The second time was in The Incredibles. The third time was in Up.
  • The film's prominent use of clownfish prompted mass purchase of the animals for children's pets in the United States, even though the movie portrayed the use of fish as pets negatively and that saltwater aquariums are notably tricky and expensive to maintain. [1] As of 2004, in Vanuatu, clownfish were being caught on a large scale for sale as pets, motivated by the demand. [2]
