Inside Out: 22 Easter Eggs, In-Jokes And References You Need To See

13. A Poster Referencing La Luna Is In Riley's Classroom

Just above the glove, on one of the wall pillars, is a poster of a young boy and a bunch of stars. The fat-tipped stars are damn-near identical to those seen in the short film that accompanied Brave, La Luna. La Luna was a very different short from what many expect of Pixar, with a more abstract visual style and clear European influences. Since its debut it has been kinda forgotten, so it's nice to see it get a subtle shout-out here. Also notice the green apple sprouting a plant on the pinboard. It's similar (but not idential) to the symbol for the directive in Wall-E.
