Released in late 2017, Coco is one of the newest additions to the Disney Pixar family. Miguel, a curious and rebellious young boy, takes an accidental trip to The Land of the Dead to discover his family’s legacy. The journey lead him to an unexpected reality that centered around love, anger, death, music, and most importantly, family. The hilarious characters in this film (shout out to Hector!) paired with life lessons taught, make Coco a must-see for any Disney fan.
Another thing I love about this film is that there are plenty of hidden Easter Eggs throughout. Easter Eggs are objects or characters hidden throughout movies, that reference other Disney movies. Take a look through these gems found throughout Coco – I’m sure that some will surprise you!
1. A113 – Many Disney and Pixar animators studied at California’s Institute of the Arts. A113 was a classroom from Cal Arts that was also included in Coco. The Customs Office in the Land of the Dead is also labeled Room #A113. Coincidence? I think not!
2. Apple Computer – Steve Jobs was one of the founding fathers of Pixar. An old Apple computer was included in the Land of the Dead, to coincide with the rest of the outdated, or dead, technology.
3. John Ratzenberger’s voice – Ratzenberger’s voice is used in all Pixar films because it is believed to bring good luck. Ratzenberger was the voice of the Land of the Dead character Juan Ortodoncia.
4. Finding Nemo Dentist – The dentist office shown in monitor in the scene with Juan Ortodoncia has the same cabinets from the Finding Nemo Dentist office.
5. Nemo – You can find our favorite little clown fish located next to the skeleton near the top of the Afrienda. Is that Nemo hiding in the flowers?
6. 
Marlin, Dory, Destiny – I’m sure you remember these three from Finding Dory. Pixar hid these characters and you can find they are located on the “Alebrijes” table when Miguel is running through town.
7. Lion King – Dante the dog sometimes appears to be a dumb dog, however later we learn that he is actually Miguel’s spirit dog. At one point in the movie he made a reference to the hyena, Ed, from Lion King.
8. Sid’s Skeleton shirt – The skeleton in the band wore the same black shirt.
9. Skrillex was a cameo as the DJ in Wreck it Ralph’s 30th anniversary party. It looks like the musician in the contest with skeleton shirt closely resembles Skrillex as well.
10. Brave broom – The curvy broom, with the same bend, held together by twine, in the same exact spot is the same in both movies.
11. Incredibles 2 – When they are shooting off fireworks in the Land of the Dead, look to the right and you can see the Incredibles graffiti!
12. Pixar Ball – Shown on the table when Dante is chasing the monkey around.
13. Mexico – Miguel’s family member is wearing the same colors as the Mexico team’s soccer jerseys.
14. Toy Story – There are lots of hand-made piñatas of Toy Story characters hanging throughout the town.
15. Walt Disney – At the end of the film, they created their of “Afrienda” of people who supported them. Walt’s photo is located in the middle right under the explanation of the photos.
16. Pizza Planet Truck – Passes by when Miguel is looking out the window.
17. Ratatouille and Wall-e scooter – The scooter is green (instead of red in Ratatouille) because metal changes color as it ages.
