Partly Cloudy - Easter Eggs & Hidden Details
Easter Eggs
Connection to 'Up'
The film was released theatrically alongside Pixar's Up (2009). The themes of an odd-couple partnership mirror the relationship between Carl and Russell.
Dumbo Homage
The entire premise is a direct homage to the opening sequence of Disney's 1941 film Dumbo, where storks deliver babies. Partly Cloudy answers the question of where those babies come from.
