Animaniacs - Easter Eggs & Hidden Details

Easter Eggs

Jurassic Park Opening Parody

The very first scene of the reboot is a shot-for-shot parody of the opening of Jurassic Park, with caricatures of Sam Neill and Laura Dern discovering the "reanimated" Warners. This is a meta-reference to Executive Producer Steven Spielberg, who directed the film and helped create the original series.

Obscure Film References

In the "Reboot It" song, posters for fake sequels and prequels to the 2013 Spike Lee remake of Oldboy and the 1994 film Don Juan DeMarco can be seen, showcasing the writers' love for deep-cut pop culture references that many viewers might miss.

Ralph the Guard's Name

In the new series, Ralph the guard is given a full name: Ralph T. Guard. This is a simple, 'dad joke' style pun that is typical of the show's humor.

Wreck-It Ralph Reference

In the background of the new CEO's office, a movie poster can be seen that appears to be a reference to the Disney film Wreck-It Ralph, a nod to a fellow animation studio and a character who shares a name with their security guard.
