Can someone at Pixar confirm or deny this? Pees?

  What? I'm pretty sure it's non confirmed. It's basically just nerdy banter (like Dracula vs Hulk). They base their assumption on the fact that movies contain models from other movies, when those are merely Easter eggs. It's like saying MSFT wanted to turn accountants into pilots for 9/11 by including a flight simulator into it. It breaks down under scrutiny.

    Hulk obviously.

      Vampire Hulk would be a great comic series.

    Oh! Of course it's not confirmed. It would just be nice for someone on the inside to give a wink+nod, or tell us that's it's completely off the mark.

      There was a Quora by a Pixar employee (who did distance himself from Pixar, so not official statement) comment on that. I'll paste info here because Quora sucks: It's a wonderful example of how, given a sufficiently large dataset, one can cherry-pick what one needs to construct almost any narrative. My daughter broke the time line, though, by pointing out that Heimlich has a cameo in Toy Story 2. I do want to give the author props for inventing the idea of the Monsters Inc. doors being time portals. It doesn't really work, but it's witty. As in the case of Andy's father the real reason Pixar films contain references to other Pixar films is rather mundane. It's only because somebody thought it would be funny and the director agreed. In the cases of things like John Ratzenberger's voice and the Pizza Planet Truck, it's tradition and a challenge.
