What is the Pixar Theory?

ILLUSTRATES: Vitor Cafaggi

The thesis formulated by writer Jon Negroni states that all of the studio’s films are connected. Know all the secrets.

1. It all starts in brave. The witch in the movie (who disappears when the doors close behind her) has a spell that makes animals talk. It is this magic that, passed on to the next generations, would have allowed some animals of the future to speak and become rational. This explains how, in RatatouilleRemy the mouse can talk to humans and have a different personality than his peers

two. We know that at the end of Ratatouille, the villain Skinner disappears. The theory is that he somehow came into contact with Charles Muntz, the villain of up, and told him about this incredible potential of animals. That’s where the idea of ​​inventing necklaces that translate the thoughts of animals came from. After the end of the film, the animals are released and spread around the world.

3. Perhaps to react to the growth of rational animals, humans bet on unrestrained technological development. This is what made possible the emergence of megacorporations such as Buy-n-Large (BnL) in Wall-ewhich controlled almost everything on the planet when the world “ended”, manufacturing everything from batteries (Toy Story) to construction machinery (up)

4. Before the world ended, however, the human versus animal conflict escalated. BnL appears in Looking for Nemoa film set in a time when the two sides are already more hostile towards each other. The Incredibles would also take place at the time, showing the machines (controlled by BnL) helping Syndrome to exterminate the heroes

5. So far, we know that humans have developed technology to outperform animals and that corporations have turned into evil companies. That’s why the fight changes: now it’s humans against technology, or rather, against machines. In The Incrediblesthey are the ones controlling Syndrome, not the other way around

6. the toys of Toy Story also fit as «machines». In all three films, there are examples of them revolting against humans. But Toy Story gives us important information: machines need humans as a source of energy. That’s why, in Wall-ea portion of humanity is conserved on the ships of the Axiom

7. After Earth is emptied, the planet is inhabited by machines, as seen in Cars. But the lack of humans also generates a lack of energy – and that is the real reason for the crisis seen in Cars 2. At the end of Wall-ewe see the plant in the boot turn into a tree

8. This new tree, which restarts life on Earth, is the same as Insect’s life. In this film, you can see that the ants have an advanced society (more than Nemo’s fish, for example), but there are no humans in sight. It’s because the repopulation is still in its infancy and there are few people walking the Earth.

9. After the repopulation, the evolution of the species leads to the appearance of the creatures of Monsters Inc. Their universe is actually Earth in the distant future. It’s just that monsters need humans as a source of energy (just like children’s toys do). Toy Story) and therefore use the doors to travel to the past. That’s right: they are not dimensional portals, but temporal ones

10. Boo is the last tip of the story. Obsessed with why normal animals aren’t like monsters, she discovers how to travel through time and develops the magic that makes animals talk. Yes, she becomes the witch of brave! There are two “proofs”: one is that, in Valente, you can quickly see a drawing of Sully in the witch’s house. The other is that the witch disappears behind doors. In other words, she doesn’t disappear, she just travels back in time.

Curiosity: We even see the Pizza Planet truck in a wooden sculpture of the witch, and that only makes sense if she’s already seen one.
