The Search For Pixar's Lost Easter Egg - Eddache 

I think that cloud is really it. It looks like it's on its own animation layer, and it seems to almost not have the same rendering quality and lighting as the other clouds. Could easily be a last-minute addition.

My vote goes towards the cloud theory - It really does kinda look like it could be the truck.

bruh what, that cloud formation is SO much clearer than the one in the good dinosaur, how is this not an open and shut case?

The cloud actually looks like the truck and is divided up well enough that you can tell what the individual parts are. And keep in mind that in Toy Story 2, even with the deadlines they snuck in a Luxo Jr lamp in the stars at the beginning of the movie. So having a weirdly difficult Easter egg this early on wouldn’t be too surprising since they already did it with Toy Story 2! Now to just find the A113 in Monsters Inc!!

I like the classroom theory because of how esoteric it is. Like whoever designed that classroom, which is meant to be shown on a grainy camera recording, was bent on making sure the letters P, I, Z & A and a planet should be that close to each other.

Another example of an early Pixar movie not having one of the recurring easter eggs they'd go on to be known for is that there is no A-113 in Monsters Inc. There's a few things that _might_ be intended to be it, but they're all kind of a stretch and none are confirmed.

The cloud theory is so convincing i firmly believe it's true. It's the exact shape of the truck and easy to add

This reminds me of Monsters Inc and A113. Apparently, A113 is somewhere in the movie, but to date, no one has conclusively found exactly where it is. There are some places where it is really close or that COULD be it, but as of yet, it's not confirmed.

i can't think about the pizza planet truck without thinking about that jacksfilms easter eggs bit

Wild speculation: What if someone did sneak the truck in - but it ended up in a scene that, in the end, got cut from the movie?

the real surprise is that no animator on pixar has commented on it on social media. the director is fine and all but if anyone would have slipped in an easter egg it (probably) wouldn't be the director. although yeah the simplest explanation (that it was in production before it became tradition) is probably correct

I know it's not the point of the video, but the autism diagnosis joke at the start really made me think that (if true) it's cool to have such accomplished autistic role models to look up to Like Eddie's got a family, a job, a house, a wonderful sense of humor, an even more wonderful passion and drive to create; all things I hope to achieve in the future as a fellow autistic ♡

The 'bike thing' in Luca is an Auto Rickshaw, or Tuk Tuk. The most iconic ones were invented in Italy, where they're often still available in a sort of light pickup truck form, but they're most common in Asian and African countries these days.

Another thing worth noting about the truck and you see this in Incredibles 2, how it looks different the Pizza Planet truck is based on a 80s Toyota, about 20 years afters the Incredibles take place in, Doc works because Doc is a old Hudson from the 1950s, plus given the time they're in they probably didn't even want to make a new model, and also a lot what it has, Bed Cap, Pizza Sign, being Japanese were things not really common at the time the film takes place in

I remember telling my parents every single time that I saw the truck in ANY Pixar movie we watched, they got so sick of it 😭

I remember I spotted the truck in "Cars" and nobody in my family believed me. Even when I rewinded and pointed it out to them, they still didn't believe me! Even if it's not in The Incredibles, the Pizza Planet truck remains one of my favorite easter eggs of all time, and I hope it keeps showing up.

I thought this video was going to be about the A113 Easter Egg in Monsters Inc, because unlike the Incredibles' truck, it has actually been confirmed to be there somewhere.

Your videos are so fun to watch. You've made me appreciate animation even more.

Fun fact also about reusing assets, the scene in Monsters Inc. where they're going through different doors and are at the beach, that palm tree in that scene is used in the dentist lobby fish tank in Finding Nemo. They just shrunk it down and changed its color!

This video proves I am not the only one who overanalyzes movies like this, it's a relief honestly. Btw 11:03 the "bike thing" is called an apecar.

11:16 HE FOUND THE SECOND GOOD DINOSAUR PIZZA PLANET TRUCK! The first one appears in the meteor clump in the opening.

If I ever get the chance to be a part of a movie production, I also want to add my own easter egg involving a truck. Two Trucks actually. Not any specific two trucks really, just Two Trucks. I think it'd be funny; maybe have 'em in a car crash or somethin'.

I think the in universe theory of Pizza Planet not yet existing makes sense. The truck being in Incredibles 2 doesn't ruin this theory because it's entirely possible that the franchise started between the movies.

Given Disney's obsession with cinematic universes, I could totally imagine them tying (or at least lamely attempting to tie) all the Pixar films together into one timeline and using Pizza Planet as the excuse.

Another factor as to why the Pizza Planet truck never shows up in The Incredibles could be due to the fact the movie takes place during the 1960's, meanwhile the Toyota Hilux, the truck the Pizza Planet truck was modeled after, would've been made between the 1980's and 1990's. Perhaps the time period accurate Pizza Planet truck in The Incredibles 2 was originally an idea for The Incredibles 1, but with the movie wrapping up and there not being enough time, they just couldn't get around to making a new model.

The Pizza Planet truck is the best easter egg. I love how it appears in almost every Pixar movie, except The Incredibles, of course

3:54 Never knew they reused assets and it’s kinda hilarious edited back-to-back.

Enjoyed meeting you at MCM Comic Con, you we're telling me about this video and glad to see it all came together!!! :D

Maybe the real Pizza Planet Truck were the friends we made along the way...

that cloud do kinda look like the pizza planet truck, i like that theory most, damn you put some dedication into this :D

1:16 "Hello? Autism diagnosis?" 4:09 "Haha! 69! Good job!" 5:31 "Hey! I don't have to stand for this! I'm leaving!" (Badly animates away) 12:37 "That's it! I'm resorting to maths!" "No! Don't do it!" "I'M A MAN ON THE EDGE!"

Small thing but the voiceover you have for Pete Docter regarding Boo, that's Lee Unkrich

Its a treat whenever Eddache uploads a video

That cloud theory is actually pretty promising, at least to me.

Chuck E Cheese does deliver Pizza under "Pisqually's Pizza" now

The rest of the clouds are really randomly shaped, as clouds should be, but that suspiciously shaped one has very clear lines of shading. I think that's it!

What a friday night to be alive

i think more card and board games should encourage players to play with modified custom rulesets like that Priorities game tbh, seems like a fun idea. My go-to example is how the Uno video game adaptation by Ubisoft has special rules that don't exist in the main card game that barely anyone knows about like jump ins when someone plays a card that matches the number and color of a card in your deck, or the 7 card letting you swap hands with whatever player you choose. Even though it's more like suggesting alternate ways you COULD play the game, i think it's something other cards games could do from time to time, to encourage people to play however they wish, after all it's just cards or pieces on a board, there's universal video game mechanics that we have to abide by with these games, these games just sort of tell you how they work and trust you will follow everything they say perfectly.

I had no idea the Truck was an easter egg, this is fascinating learning. It's this kind of thing that got me to subscribe to begin with. I always learn so much fascinating stuff from Eddache videos.

Pizza Planet, A113, and the Luxo Ball are the holy trinity of easter eggs in the Pixar Theory Universe, where every Pixar films shared the same room together, and it all started with Boo revealing to be the wood-carving Witch from _Brave._

I’m more on the side of the cloud being the Easter egg. If it can appear as a formation of rocks in a corn silo, as well as a wood carving or boat, I believe this one is it

3:53 That transition was CLEAN.

It's a good day when Eddache uploads

Eddie uploading, and about my favorite film, this was SUCH a treat

The giddy rush I get when a RU-vidr I watch mentions Luca

I'm surprised the "Dynoguy = truck" theory isn't the consensus. His outfit is the same shade of off-white with red accents as the rocket-ship, and the little fin detail on top of his head looks like a rocket fin.

Love these deep dives into famous obscure Easter eggs! On the same wavelength, did we ever find out if A113 is in Monsters, Inc.? Otherwise John Ratzenberger is the only constant throughout all of Pixar filmography (or at least last time I checked).

Really good video Eddy, also it was really nice meeting you at Comic con several months ago

Did you try to contact animators the way you did with the Rescuers down under video? The cloud theory seems really likely imo (I also care about this too much because of my autism)

Is cool to see you post, I wacted 65% of all your videos recently and I neded something new

I always just assumed it wasnt in the movie because it wouldnt make sense with the period the movie is set in. Then again it is in Brave in some form so who knows Edit: nvm you literally point this out

Maybe the true pizza truck was the friends we made along the way…

Every video on this channel is always so good! Thanks for another great video eddache!

I remember seeing that Reddit post 3 years ago and originally rolled my eyes and thought it was reaching. But weirdly, this video has sold me on the cloud theory. It does feel like the sort of thing a rouge animator could’ve slipped in without telling anyone and without anyone noticing. Hence how Lee Unkridge or Brad Bird wouldn’t have known.

Ah yes, the famous Pixar easter eggs. There's A113, the Pizza Planet Truck, and of course that CREEPY F*CKING GIRAFFE

I have NEVER met anyone who has even heard of Powerpoint Meltdown by picnicface, and here is a random reference to it in an Eddache video, of all places. That is my favorite video of all time, that just made my day

0:28 I love you for this clip, Eddache ❤

The autism diagnosis phonecall bit made me laugh way too hard! The answer I've gotten from most doctors is "ehhhh maybeeeee but you could just be pretendiiiiingggg" (as doctors are want to do) but it feels too fitting for me. Plus the first person to ever bring it up to me was my Oma who said it with zero prompting whatsoever and was a Special Education teacher for longer than I've been alive. Fascinating video overall! I definitely believe in the cloud theory personally, it just looks so bizarre/

7:46 i really appreciate that it was changed into a period correct truck just for this

I like how with other examples the the truck is hidden in time periods it won't make sense for a truck to exist yet, but then in the Good Dinosaur the truck is just in fricking space. shows that just like the audiences, the animators didn't care about the Good Dinosuar

i love that you took on this sponsor!

Merry early christmas, edd

Not every Pixar easter egg managed to last forever; John Ratzenberger hasn't had a voice cameo since Onward.

I'm convinced it's the cloud now. I was thinking there just wasn't one, but that cloud is _extremely_ Pizza Planet Truck-shaped.

Love a new eddache video!

either it is in fact the cloud (and it easily could be), or it's been placed in one of the environments outside of the camera shots.

That clouds is way to convincing as a truck for it to not be the pizza planet truck. It’s a lot better than the rock formation thing for that other movie I can’t remember

It's the cloud, if the good dinosaur can have such a bug stretch as the rock formation, the clouds don't seem like tok big of a stretch

Omg I've watched so much about pixar easter eggs and I've always known about this and just succumbed to the idea it wasn't in the movie, but I'm 100% convinced on the cloud theory now.

19 years and we're still looking for it

any day with a new eddache video is a good day- this really cheered me up :) almost as much as i'm sure a clear pizza planet truck would the pixar fandom

Monster's Inc had 2 references to Finding Nemo, since the trailer also had a mounted Clown Fish on the wall.

You know it’s gonna be a good day when Edd uploads

Completely unrelated to the video, but I love how you have both Grandparadox and a poster for Space Captain in the background at the end.

This is a great video!!👏

Funny video. But honestly, at this point, I think either the clouds are it, or just as you stated, they "rushed" the movie, couldn't use it as prop and didn't add it because it wasn't well known at the time. (and in two days someone will post a video showing it clearly...) Thank you for your work anyway!

The truck in the sequel is a better look for the truck in The Incredibles as it more fits the era of the film cause the Original model is a 1984 Toyota Hilux so it wouldn't fit for 1962 compaired to the Doc Hudson cameo you mentioned which is a 1953 Hudson Hornet which totally fits the era.

Maybe the real Pizza Planet Truck was the friends we made along the way. lol xD

Thanks for video on one of my favourite top Pixar movies about an interesting topic. I personally believe that it's the cloud

So glad you came to terms with your autism, man, I could feel you were one of us ever since How To Solve Who Shot Mr. Burns

Okay idea for a PIXAR Short. What if they made a short centered around some dude delivering Pizza Planet Pizza during the Fight Scene in The Incredibles. Could be pretty funny and I think it would be a good resolution to the Pizza Planet Truck in The Incredibles.

Maybe in a future re-release of the movie they could add it in somewhere. I highly doubt they’d ever do it, but it would be cool.

yay a new video

We love the tism!

I love how almost all the background cars in the Incredibles are actually real 50s and 60s cars

the cloud fits perfectly gets my vote

I remember back in the day of peak pixar discussion there was a rumour about the pizza planet being in that tape of dash. He disappears for one frame to put the pin down and supposedly in that frame a toy of the truck is on dash’s desk

Oh wait I think the cloud is right. I mean if that 'rock formation' is meant to be the Pizza Planet truck then this cloud definitely is.

Wasn't expecting to get a jump scare in one of your videos Jesus wept 💩 myself. Class video as always anyways!

You know what, I think it's the cloud, it seems to be moving slower than all the other clouds on screen, so giving people more time to have their eye drawn to it, and I spotted it right away (unlike the Good Dinosaur ones) so I'm leaning into the cloud

1:13 This is the most relatable thing Eddie has ever said

Not a single joke in this video missed you were on point with e very one of them god damn

It is 100% the cloud. There’s been a lot of instances of the truck in other pixar movies that are similarly tenuous (like the asteroid belt in the good dinosaur)

i'm not gonna lie, that cloud shape is a little too specific to be a complete nothing. Even if it wasn't made that shape on purpose I think that counts

There actually used to be a place in Vermont called Pizza Putt. It went out of business because nobody wants indoor mini golf & pizza.

Good video!

Reminds me of that SuperCarlinBrothers video where they try to find A113 in Monsters Inc

I watched this video while on lunch at target, imagine my surprise when i hear "you can get this NOW at target!" talk about TARGETed advertising hahaha!

The way you say "blur" is the best

The short clip of the Toy Story video game unlocked some childhood memories I had forgotten about.
