Slick!

I'll start by saying, I'm new to this tribe and the whole tribe.net thing, so if I come off a little dopey please forgive me. I dig Pixar, so I figured this would be a good place to talk about what I like about Pixar flicks.
I have a little girl, so I was watching Monsters Inc. for about the tenth time, and I noticed something I hadn't caught before: Boo hands 'Kitty' a Nemo, (or maybe Marlin), doll toward the end of the movie when they're in her bedroom. She hands him a Woody doll too, but since Toy Story had already been released when Monsters Inc. came out, it didn't surprise me. This is probably old news, but I thought it was a pretty cool little foreshadow thrown in there. Does anyone know if Pixar does this a lot? If so, what are some of the other little "Waldos" I should look for?

    Pixar does throw in little inside jokes in many of the films... In "A Bug's Life" there are tons, too... For example, the bug city set that looks like Times Square has boxes with names of Pixar producers, and other people on them. Also, when the bug is flying towards the bug zapper saying "I can't help it, it's so beautiful," that's actually Andrew Stanton and John Lasseter, one of the movie's writers and the director, respectively.

    There are tons of others, too...
