The Pixar Theory
There’s a widely popular fan theory revolving around the Pixar movies, creatively called The Pixar Theory, that proposes that every Pixar movie, from Dinosaurs  to Toy Story 4, are all set in the same universe. If you’re a big Pixar fan, and have 26 minutes to kill, I highly recommend the video below. It will make you rethink every Pixar movie. (And the witch in Brave… will blow your mind.)
It will be interesting to see how OnWard fits into this theory. Maybe it breaks the theory, or maybe it will definitely resolve the questions. We’ll soon find out.

Creator and developer of the RunPee app. When something doesn’t work right in the app it’s pretty much his fault. 🙂
Aspiring author. Would like to finish his “Zombie Revelations” trilogy if he could break away for working on RunPee and the cottage he’s building for RunPee Mom.

Great photos you chose to look like their animated selves!
Although the Pixar Theory isn’t considered canon, I’m sure at this point there won’t be any trouble fitting it into the plan by Pixar fans.
I look forward to seeing if there is chemistry between Spider-Man and Star Lord in OnWard. Honestly, I think Chris Pratt has natural chemistry with everyone, and so far Tom Holland has yet to disappoint.
