History ShoutOut / AnimatedFilms

** That's the same trailer with the "Pizza Planet" truck seen in ''WesternAnimation/MonstersInc'' that is also in ''WesternAnimation/ABugsLife''.

* In ''WesternAnimation/TheTransformersTheMovie'', one scene has Grimlock asking Kup to "tell Grimlock about petro-rabbits!", a clear reference to the classic ''Literature/OfMiceAndMen''.

* ''WesternAnimation/ToyStory1''. The shark doll puts on Sheriff Woody's hat and says "Look, I'm Woody! Howdy, howdy, howdy!" This is a reference to an old ''ComicStrip/TheFarSide'' cartoon (1980-1984) which has a vulture that puts on a cowboy's clothing and says "I'm a cowboy! Howdy, howdy, howdy!"

** An early movie example has a chase scene end [[Film/BackToTheFuture with Aladdin's pursuers falling into a pile of manure.]] Particularly interesting when you consider the [[Creator/MichaelJFox initial inspiration]] for Aladdin's design.

** When the Slushious blasts away from the gas station, it leaves a license plate spinning on its corner a la ''Film/BackToTheFuture''.

** During the car chase between the heroes and the weasels, the weasel driving sneers "I'm gonna ram 'im!"... then, when the attempted target of their vehicular assault dodges, he and his mooks scream as they hurtle towards a crash. Just like the scene with Biff chasing a skateboard-riding Marty in ''Film/BackToTheFuture''.

* ''ShoutOutTheIncredibles1''

[[folder:D]]
* A more infamous version of this was in ''Doogal'' -- the US redub of ''WesternAnimation/TheMagicRoundabout''. There were lots of rapid-fire shout-outs to pieces of pop culture relevant to the year the movie was released -- a major complaint about said movie.

** To ''WesternAnimation/TheNightmareBeforeChristmas'': The pumpkins in the other mother's garden look like the Mayor of Halloweentown, and the tallest of the three Ghost Children resembles Shock. The cat is the same sort of black, scrawny specimen seen in Halloweentown. A bowl that Other Mother uses resembles Jack Skellington. Similarly, when Wybie has his facemask/helmet on, he bears a strong resemblance to Barrel. There also might be one to Creator/{{Pixar}}, as one of the Shakespeare players has a baby in a backpack that looks a lot like [[WesternAnimation/TheIncredibles Jack-Jack]].

** Oh mistakes a urinal cake for a mint. Ten years earlier in ''{{WesternAnimation/Madagascar}}'', Melman did the exact same thing.

* ''ShoutOut/{{Madagascar}}''

* ''WesternAnimation/HortonHearsAWho'' has numerous references to Creator/DrSeuss's works.

** Rudy mentions an imaginary friend in his "world" named Thidwick, a nod to ''Thidwick the Big-Hearted Moose''.

** Hmm, an AllCGICartoon movie in which a guy thinks he's a superhero, gets separated from his owner, gradually warms up to an annoyed naysayer companion, depressedly learns that said companion was right all along, and then gets reassured by the same companion that he's not so worthless. [[WesternAnimation/ToyStory Where have we seen that before?]]

** An outtake features the main character Flik shouting [[WesternAnimation/ToyStory "to infinity, and beyond!"]]
