Outtakes

BugsLife-WoodyCameo — Woody in one of the *A Bug's Life* outtakes

In some of their movies, Pixar added a variety of hilarious computer-animated outtakes to the end credits. Many were of the characters forgetting their lines, making a mistake, or just being silly. The outtakes could either be viewed during the film's end credits, while others were a special feature on a DVD or Blu-ray.

Toy Story (1995)[]

Animation_Glitches!_-_Toy_Story — Animation Glitches! - Toy Story

The idea of making computer-animated outtakes was conceived towards the end of the production of Toy Story; however, there was not enough time to make them.

Although this film did not have outtakes at the end, the 3-disc Collector's Edition: The Ultimate Toy Box featured a segment called "Render Bugs", which were accidental animation errors from the making of the film.

These are some examples of the footage shown:

In the scene where Buzz takes aim at Woody with his "laser", Buzz's leg movements were not animated when the scene was rendered, giving the effect that Buzz is floating across the bed.
Buzz is rendered with empty eye sockets, and his eyes float free at the bottom of his helmet. Note that, although Buzz's face and eyes are not connected, the animation of them is in sync.
Andy's hand is accidentally substituted for Rex's head. Note that Rex's eyes and teeth remain – attached to a human hand.
In the scene at the gas station, Woody's legs were accidentally rendered to the side of the character, instead of straight down.
In the scene where Buzz removes the decal from his disconnected arm, the arm was assigned an incorrect position, so it floats in the air around him.
In the film's final scene with Buzz and Woody, Woody's body was rendered askew and out of sync with his "stand-in" skeleton.
In the scene where Woody rejoices over Sid's defeat, Woody's body was again rendered out of sync with his "stand-in" skeleton.

A Bug's Life (1998)[]

A_Bug's_Life_Outtakes — A Bug's Life Outtakes

This was the first Pixar film to have outtakes.

Hopper is doing his line: "Are you saying I'm stupid? Do I look stupid to you?", but Atta suddenly bursts out laughing, so they try the take again ending with the first of those questions and she is still laughing (unable to answer "No"). The third time, again ending with the first question, Atta says, "Yes!" with more laughing. Hopper gets upset and says: "This is the fifteenth take. I cannot work like this. I will be in my trailer." Atta then says, "I need a break."
Rosie is doing her line of telling Flik that they are not fighting grasshoppers, but is interrupted by the sound of someone hammering off-screen, so she tells them to stop. The bell rings and Slim asks if they can see him in the shot.
Before Flik heads off to city to search for warrior bugs, he grabs a dandelion seed and shouts out Buzz Lightyear's catchphrase: "To infinity and beyond!" The crew starts laughing and Flik apologizes, saying that he couldn't resist and asks if they could blame him. He then carefully places the seed back and says, "Let's go for real now," and apologizes again.
At Hopper's lair, Molt is asking him why they should go back to Ant Island and reminds him that he doesn't like grain, and Hopper jumps up and moves towards him, but as Molt is backing away from his brother, he accidentally knocks over the camera and apologizes.
At the party, when Flik and Atta get their antennae tangled together after the latter thanks the former for finding warrior bugs, Atta's ends up tightly wrapped around Flik's. Flik then desperately tries to untangle them with Atta crying out in pain and asking the filming crew to cut.
Dr. Flora is flirting with another ant on the set, which turns out to be a cardboard cutout when she knocks him down. She apologizes when she thought it was real and tells the crew to put it in her car.
Atta is doing the scene of granting Flik's request to search for warrior bugs when she falls off the council chamber stand, with everyone laughing.
During the fake bird attack, Slim does the scene with Hopper after squeezing boysenberry in his eye. He then starts yelling that the juice is in his eye and that he's in real pain. Hopper laughs while Slim tells him to stop and that he is serious before walking out of the shot, demanding that the crew stop the camera.
Aphie urinates on the Queen's lap. Flik and the crew then start laughing while she asks for a towel before Aphie farts.
Thumper roars at Dot after she scolds him and tells him to go home, but suddenly breaks character and voices that he doesn't feel that he is coming across as scary. He then suggests lathering up a bunch of spit and asks John Lasseter for another take.
P.T. Flea smacks his face against the camera lens while explaining the Flaming Death circus act.

The others were added a few weeks after the film's release:

At the Bug Bar, Slim tries to warn Francis about the arrival of his "boyfriends" from the circus, but starts laughing because Francis has something stuck in his nose, which starts the others laughing off-screen too. Francis turns around to reveal a twig in his nose. Everyone else laughs hysterically.
Mr. Soil is doing his scene with Dr. Flora who accidentally says "Princess Abba" instead of "Princess Atta". She laughs and suggests going disco and finding her platform shoes, with Mr. Soil chuckling while shaking his head in amusement, and Woody, as the second assistant camera, appears with an upside-down movie clapboard to end the take.
The Circus Bugs are landing and Heimlich, who is being held by Dim, gets his face squashed on the camera lens.
In the anthill, Hopper is doing the scene of telling Molt that he doesn't want to hear another word out of him, and when he then asks Molt if he understands while shaking him, Molt suddenly apologizes for not saying his line because Hopper looked funny at him, and then asks for another take. The second time, Molt laughs and apologizes again, saying that Hopper made him laugh and promises to get it right this time. The third time, he still ends up laughing while Hopper groans in frustration.
Tuck and Roll are doing their acrobatic scene when they misunderstood that they were up next in the circus act, when it goes slightly wrong with both of them falling down, to which they both laugh. The second time, they do it again with Roll landing on his head and back. The third time, Roll goes up into the air and doesn't come down again while Tuck looks around for him.
Slim swallows a bug while flying with Francis on the way to Ant Island. He chokes and Francis laughs.
When Flik and Dot are doing the seed scene, Dot forgets her line, "It's a rock." She apologizes and says that she keeps forgetting it.
Heimlich is about to get eaten by the bird when it breaks down, revealing it to be a large animatronic. Heimlich then asks if it means they can break for lunch.
Rosie is with Tuck and Roll, who have a burping contest. Suddenly, Roll farts and Rosie asks them to stop. She then walks off, asking for her agent Cindy on the phone, while the two pill bugs laugh.
Heimlich is eating every leaf he can find when he suddenly falls out of Dim's grip.

Toy Story 2 (1999)[]

Toy_Story_2_Outtakes — Toy Story 2 Outtakes

This was the second film (as well as the only Toy Story film and Pixar sequel) to have outtakes:

Before Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head segment 1:

When Woody sits down on the brown tape roll to watch the ending song of a Woody's Roundup episode in Al's apartment, he accidentally gets his backside stuck in the hole, which sets the crew laughing off-screen. After trying to get up, Woody starts to laugh too, asking, "A little help here, please?" and continues laughing hysterically as he tries to walk with the tape still stuck to him.
When the gang (including Utility Belt Buzz) tries to use Rex's head like a battering ram, the air conditioning vent is still screwed on, and they crash into it. Rex then cries out in pain, "Ow!"
In the Buzz Lightyear aisle at Al's Toy Barn, one of the Buzz action figures accidentally belches, and the others start to get uncomfortable and irritated since it was apparently the fifth time they did that scene. The Buzz figure that burped then apologizes and admits that he ate a bean burrito for lunch. (It is unknown if the toys, despite being man-made, do eat or if it was just a joke.)
When Mrs. Potato Head is packing things for Mr. Potato Head for his trip to rescue Woody ("I'm packing you an extra pair of shoes, and your angry eyes, just in case."), she also puts in:

Some cheese puffs (if he gets hungry) and a key (unknown purpose for it).
A golf ball (if he has time to play golf), a plastic steak, a rubber ducky, and a brown Woody's Roundup yo-yo.
An extra bouncy ball and extra teeth (she warns him that they chatter, and they do so, causing him to jump and say, "Whoa!").
Crayons (if he gets bored) and a huge lump of blue Play-Doh (which she tries to squeeze in, nearly making some of his pieces fall out).
A dime to call her and monkey chow (Mr. Potato Head asks what it's for, and she furiously states that it's for the monkeys). The Barrel of Monkeys start crowding him for the chow, to the point where he shouts: "That's it! I draw the line at monkeys! Get my agent on the phone!"

Between Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head segments 1 and 2:

When Jessie first meets Woody, she fiddles with his string, accidentally pulling it right out of his back. Woody is heard crashing into some off-screen props. At first, Jessie is stunned for a second but then cracks up, asking, "Could...should we just...should that just be part of the movie now? He lo...he lost his string!" before dropping it, falling to her knees and roaring with laughter again along with Woody.

Between Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head segments 2 and 3:

Slinky, after doing one scene, hears John Lasseter say, "All right, cut! Good take." Slinky then compliments his bottom half on his "good acting", and starts petting it while its foot starts to tap with pleasure. While he does this, Rex walks away in discomfort.
When Mike tosses Wheezy his microphone for the ending musical number, Wheezy gets hit in the head by it and becomes worried that he "hurt [his] equipment." He reminds Mike to aim it at his flipper since he's not good at catching it. In the second take, the microphone hits Wheezy in the head again, but this time really hard, and he accidentally swallows his new squeaker and starts coughing and wheezing.

Between Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head segments 3 and 4:

Buzz is walking down the aisle of Buzz Lightyear action figures. He sees Woody in one of the boxes, making incredibly silly faces, causing the crew to start laughing. Buzz, despite his best efforts, ends up breaking character because of this and holds his hands up while snorting with laughter.
There are three takes that show markings on Buzz:
- In the first take, when Buzz pulls up his helmet while telling the other toys that they'll be back before Andy returns home, a pair of big bushy eyebrows, a mustache, and a goatee appear in black marker. The crew starts to laugh, to which Buzz sees and laughs sarcastically, blaming Woody for it.
- In the second take, Lenny accidentally leaves two dark circles on Buzz's helmet that resemble glasses, which sets everybody off-screen, including the toys, laughing, except for Buzz who once again blames Woody for it.
- In the third and final take, after seeing Jessie open the door for Buster, Buzz's wings pop open, with the phrase: "This Space For Rent" written on them. Buzz also sees this and walks off, saying, "Darn it, Woody!"

Between Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head segments 4 and 5:

Flik and Heimlich, two of the characters from A Bug's Life, appear. Flik thinks it's the sequel to their movie, but as Heimlich tries to explain the situation, Buzz is shown chopping through the branch they were standing on, causing them to fall.
When Woody asks if the Roundup Gang would like to become Andy's toys, Stinky Pete, instead of not being inside his box, is still there with two identical twin Barbie dolls. He promises them a role in the sequel, only to be embarrassed when he realizes that they were shooting the film, and quickly ushers the Barbie dolls out. (This outtake was removed in 2019 to avoid any #MeToo-related controversy.)
While the cameraman troubleshoots an apparent technical issue with the camera's focus before being ready to shoot, the three Squeeze Toy Aliens in the Pizza Planet Truck pass the time by talking about their careers. One of them reveals that he's going to star as a villain in a toothpaste commercial, which impresses the other two.

After Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head segment 5:

When Stinky Pete says it's Woody's choice to either go back to Andy's or to the Toy Museum with the Roundup Gang and last a lifetime, he ruins the dramatic moment by farting loudly, which sets almost everyone off-screen in a fit of laughter. Stinky Pete apologizes while humorously remarking that it must be the reason why they call him "Stinky Pete".
The last outtake is Tour Guide Barbie saying, "Bye-bye!" multiple times, and after the scene is over, she is relieved, saying that her mouth couldn't take much more smiling.

Monsters, Inc. (2001)[]

Pixar_Monsters,_Inc._-_hilarious_movie_outtakes_(HQ) — Pixar Monsters, Inc. - hilarious movie outtakes (HQ)

This was the last Pixar film to have outtakes:

As Sulley is backing away from Boo, he falls over backwards on the armchair, to which they both laugh.
As the monsters are entering the Scare Floor, Sulley is tripped by one of Bud's tentacles and falls in slow motion, which in turn causes the other monsters to fall, including Randall, who noticed and laughed at Sulley's fall. A monster holding an upside-down clapboard moves in front of the camera in slow motion as well, followed by the slowed down beeping sound to transition to the next outtake also.
Boo keeps missing Sulley throwing cereal into her mouth. The first throw has the cereal piece fly past her; the second bounces off her cheek; the third lands in front of her; and the final throw makes her fall over backwards when she tried to jump to catch it. She and the crew laugh hysterically.
Sulley opens the bathroom stall to see if Boo is finished with her business, to which Roz suddenly appears, making him jump. They and the crew then laugh.
Smitty accidentally refers to Sulley as "Mr. Solomon", to which Needleman calls Smitty an idiot and that he has ruined their chance of working in Hollywood. Smitty attempts to ask for a do-over, but Needleman silences him and says he's making it worse.
While the CDA workers are landing through the roof, one lands face-flat on the skylight window and slides down. (Note: This was also used at the Monsters, Inc. Laugh Floor.)
The CDA shave and wash George after a decontamination procedure. When they are finished, the curtain comes down with Roz, wearing a sparkling sweater, in his place who then says, "Ta-da!", causing everyone to burst out laughing.
Mike is saying goodbye to Boo, but he accidentally says, "Go throw up," instead of "Go grow up." Everyone laughs, but Mike doesn't realize his mistake.
When Sulley is saying good morning to Ted, a familiar roar is heard, which turns out to be Rex from Toy Story trying out for the role. He then asks anxiously how it went, if he can do it again, and claims he can be taller.
As Mike and Sulley run through the corridor to get to Boo's door, Sulley slips on the floor and crashes into some off-screen props. He can be heard saying, "Ow!" weakly. The others laugh and Mike asks for more wax on the floor.
Sulley says, "Look-lay in the bag-bay," and Mike says that he thinks Sulley meant, "Ook-lay in the ag-bay," and tells him that he should take a minute to "ead-ray [his] ipt-scray." They both laugh.
Sulley opens the door of his closet to show Boo that Randall won't come through to scare her and that it's empty, but when he opens it, Roz appears in the doorway and says, "Guess who?" Everyone, including Boo, laughs.
Fungus pulls down several different wallpapers that Randall practices blending into. Suddenly, Fungus pulls down an artistic portrait with the face missing, and Randall blends into it. Fungus and everyone else laughs while Randall sees the joke and says he looks good in a suit.
Needleman and Smitty are attempting to shred the red defective door, but the shredder gets jammed, malfunctions, and goes out of control, moving all over the set and finally hitting the camera.
After a few seconds of the Monsters, Inc. logo moving its eye during the song "If I Didn't Have You", when Mike and Sulley are telling their co-workers about their musical play, Mike sings: "Get that thing away from me, you guys. Put that thing back where it came from, or I'll poke myself in the eye," while Sulley does some hilarious dancing.
Although not an outtake, a live performance of the play follows, with Sulley introducing the play and Mike, with the rest of the cast, acting it out. The play finally ends with Mike thanking the audience with his mother amongst them whistling in admiration.

The Incredibles (2004)[]

THE_INCREDIBLES_-_Technical_Goofs — THE INCREDIBLES - Technical Goofs

Although this film did not have outtakes at the end, the 2-disc Collector's Edition featured a segment called "Incredi-Blunders", which were accidental animation mistakes from the making of the film. It had four different sections: "Bad Hair Day", "Wardrobe Malfunction", "Clowning Around", and "What The...?"
