What would you think if you heard that all Pixar movies are connected in one big timeline in the same universe? Published in a 2015 book of the same name, The Pixar Theory attempts to connect all Pixar films into one big universe which features time travel, talking animals and evil robots. It has been in circulation for quite some while, but it repeatedly gets updated as more films come out.
The theory pitches humans, animals and machines all against each other. It starts with the more recent instalment ‘The Good Dinosaur’, in which the meteorite destined to hit Earth completely misses it. Dinosaurs become intelligent – using farming, developing language and even co-existing with primitive humans.
This explains why, in The Pixar universe, many animals are immensely intelligent. With rats having a passion for cooking, octopi driving vans and dogs having their thoughts translated through gadgets, the animal kingdom takes a step back to humanity however.
As this happens, machines develop more and more advanced technology. And these inanimate objects develop sentience – all because of human emotion. Toy Story shows us how toys rely on humans to survive, with Toy Story 4 introducing Forky, who gains sentience after he is created.
The world is however being slowly destroyed through pollution. We see this culminate in Wall-E. Humans are forced to leave Earth, with robots taking over. Cars, in fact, retain the personalities of their previous owners and rule for a brief time. Humans eventually return, but due to the pollution, the theory suggests, they evolve…
This brings us to Monsters Inc. Yep, the monsters in the film are just mutated humans (according to the theory at least). The monsters also need human emotion to survive and build portals back in time to scare, and later cheer up, children. This brings us to Boo.
Remember that witch from Brave? The theory suggests that the witch is Boo herself, still obsessed with Sully and wanting to travel in time to meet him. In fact, the witch is quite obsessed with bear-like creatures and has a knack for opening doors into different dimensions.
If this theory seems too far fetched for you, well you’re not the only one. But Pixar theorists have worked out so many details, including every single Pixar film, to fit this narrative. And it all sounds at least mildly compelling. And every time a new film comes out to contradict the theory (think Onward), the theorists just see it as an opportunity to make it all work!

Despite being as impressive as it is, the pool isn’t the only Guiness World Record held by the resort. The skybridge, containing luxury apartments, is at 294.36 meters – making it the world’s highest occupied skybridge floor. A striking architectural addition to the Jumeirah skyline is the beachfront property called the Jumeirah Gate which was opened in December 2020.
Deputy CEO of Al Ain Holding Federico Rota stated that he and his company are proud to be breaking two Guiness World Record titles with the pool’s opening. The state-of-the-art construction and groundbreaking amenities set new luxury lifestyle standards internationally.
