TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

In the bloopers shown at the end of the film, Princess Atta is shown cracking up during her scene with Hopper, ruining take after take until Hopper goes to his trailer in frustration. This is a spoof of Julia Louis-Dreyfus being known to do the same.

This is the first Pixar film to have outtakes. The outtakes were shown theatrically and on the VHS, but are only available in the bonus features on the DVD and Blu-ray versions of the film. The outtakes are also available on Disney+.

P.T. Flea is Pixar Legend John Ratzenberger's favorite Pixar role, because "in real life, I always get a kick out of those kinds of characters, people who just go into a rage for [no] explicable reason. He was always on edge. His blood pressure was always way over the top, and everything that he did was done in a panicked state. So it was a lot of fun to play him."

Dim wasn't based on a real variety of rhinoceros beetle, but in 2016 a variety of rhinoceros beetle with a horn like his was discovered. Such discoveries of "fictional" creatures later revealed to be real have subsequently been dubbed "the Dim Effect".

The Pizza Planet van from Toy Story (1995) that appears in every Pixar film, (except The Incredibles (2004)) is visible around 25 minutes in, just after the circus scene as the camera tilts up.

Popular Dialogues

"Hopper: First rule of leadership: Everything is your fault."

"Hopper: I swear, if I hadn't promised Mother on her deathbed that I wouldn't kill you, I would kill you! Molt: And believe me, no one appreciates that more than I do. Hopper: Shut up! I don't wanna hear another word out of you while we're on this island. Do you understand me? [Molt whimpers] Hopper: I said do you understand me? Molt: Well, how can I answer? You said I couldn't say another word! [Hopper raises his fist to hit him] Molt: [gasps] Remember ma! [Hopper punches the wrong grasshopper]"
