History Foreshadowing / Coco

* When Miguel's going on about Ernesto's talent at the beginning, he mentions that "He starred in movies, he had the coolest guitar, [[TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers he could fly!]]". While Ernesto ''can'' sing and ''does'' have a cool guitar, Miguel never considered whether or not he ''wrote'' his own songs. He never wrote a thing. Every song he sang was actually stolen from Héctor.

** Similarly, when Ernesto is performing "Remember Me", he isn't moving his fretting hand or fingers while doing so, as the other guitar players in the film do [[ShownTheirWork quite accurately to the music they play]].

* When Elena is explaining the importance of Dia de los Meurtos to Miguel and chastises him for mentioning Coco's papa (aka Héctor), Coco, who has been sitting there unresponsive thus far despite the intense argument happening right in front of her, suddenly takes notice and asks if her papa is coming home. This foreshadows that despite her dementia, anything about her papa clearly jogs her memory and her lucidity, which comes back later when Miguel uses "Remember Me" to restore her memories.

* When he's going on about Ernesto's talent at the beginning, Miguel says "He played in movies, he had a cool guitar, he could fly!" Ernesto ''does'' go flying at the end of the movie, thanks to [[KickTheSonOfABitch Pepita.]]
