It's no secret that Pixar are incredibly fond of including Easter eggs in their movies.

In fact, there's such a bevy of these small visual treats that fans have linked all of them in a popular internet theory that all of the Pixar movies exist within the same timeline, and it has since become a sort of ritual for them to sift through every inch of each new Pixar title in order to search for these well loved inclusions.

As a result, any Pixar title has a number of moments that fans pause time and time again.

While all of Pixar's movies have elements of fantasy or sci-fi, WALL-E was the first to be an out and out sci-fi flick.

The studio include a Pizza Planet truck (originally from Toy Story) in each movie, and it's not hard to spot in WALL-E, but the moment that had fans pausing for a better look was the inclusion of Rex, everybody's favourite plastic Tyrannosaurus.

Hidden behind some bowling pins, you can catch a glimpse of Rex's smiling face early on in the movie if you pause at the right moment and look in the right place.
