Pixar are arguably the greatest movie studio in the world. Though their recent output has drawn its fair share of debate (what with a noticeable decline in quality over the past few years), there’s no denying that the California-based animation giant possess a unique kind of magic.

And though there’s so much to enjoy with regards to the immensely detailed Pixar canon, one particular tradition sticks out more than all the others…
