Why is the shining carpet in Toy Story?

Image result for “The Shining,” references can be found as early as “Toy Story,” where the Overlook carpet pattern appears

The Shining references that have made it into the cartoon cut over the years have included homages to Tony, the man that lived in Danny's mouth; Room 237, the infamous hotel room at The Overlook that Danny really shouldn't have entered; and even the iconic hotel carpet design shows up in the original 1995 Toy Story.Jun 20, 2019

Theorist: Bill Blakemore, television correspondent, author.

Theory: The film is about the horrible crimes perpetrated on Native Americans by whites.

Evidence: In the movie (but not the Stephen King novel on which it was based), the Overlook Hotel is said to be built on a Native American graveyard. There are Native American artifacts and designs throughout the hotel (1); the hotel’s pantry, which figures in important scenes, is well stocked with Calumet baking powder (2), whose labels prominently feature an American Indian. (Calumet means “peace pipe,” and the cans symbolize the broken peace pipe, both between white men and natives and between Jack and his family.) Blakemore posits that The Shining suggests we can only escape this “nightmare of history” by retracing our steps—just as Danny Torrance does in the hedge maze.

Theorist: Geoffrey Cocks, professor of history, Albion College, Michigan.

Theory: The film is an allegory about coming to terms with Hitler’s extermination camps.

Evidence: Jack Torrance’s Adler typewriter (1) is manufactured in Germany: “a bureaucratic killing machine,” Cocks said in one interview. The number 42 is on Danny’s sweatshirt (2); Wendy Torrance swings the bat 42 times at her husband; 1942 was the year of the Final Solution, and 42 has been used as shorthand to refer to the Holocaust. The film has abundant eagle imagery, symbolizing state power. After Danny has his first vision of the elevators gushing blood, a sticker of Dopey the Dwarf (3) on his bedroom door disappears: “Before,” Cocks says, “Danny had no idea about the world. And now, he knows. He’s no longer a dope about things.” Kubrick was indeed researching a proposed Holocaust film around this time.

>3. It’s Really About the Minotaur in His Maze

Theorist: Juli Kearns, playwright, novelist.

Theory: The film is based on the Greek myth of the Cretan half-bull, half-man at the center of a labyrinth, slain by Theseus.

Evidence: The hedge maze (1); the labyrinthine architecture of the hotel (2); the “impossible window” (3) in the office of Jack Torrance’s boss; several images of the Minotaur, notably the Monarch skiing poster (4) on the wall in the game room.

>4. It’s Really About the Faked Apollo Moon Landing

Theorist: Jay Weidner, author, filmmaker, independent scholar.

Theory: Weidner and others believe that the moon landing witnessed on television was faked, created on a soundstage by Stanley Kubrick in collusion with the U.S. government; Weidner believes that the film is Kubrick’s attempt to come to terms with his supposed involvement.

Evidence: Danny wears an Apollo 11 sweater (1); Room 237 (2) represents the moon-landing stage where Kubrick supposedly worked—the moon is about 237,000 miles from Earth; the prevalence of Tang cans (3) (created for astronauts) in the hotel’s pantry; the pattern on the carpet (4) where Danny plays matches that of Launch Pad 39A, from which the Apollo rocket took off.

Parodies vs. References

 

References are small nods to the series. They could be as simple as a film poster on a wall or as complex as incorporating entire scenes. Parodies, on the other hand, are completely and solely devoted to The Shining.

Notes

 

While most references will be to the Stanley Kubrick 1980 film version of The Shining, some are to the original Stephen King 1977 novel.

2008 It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia After eating some cat food, drinking beer, and huffing glue in order to “walk a mile in Charlie’s shoes,” Dee wakes up to the infamous invitation to play “forever and ever and ever.” What’s worse, hallucinating creepy twins or finding Danny DeVito peeing into a bucket?

2010 Get Him to the Greek It’s quick, but Russell Brand’s exclamation — “It’s Kubrickian!” — while being chased by Diddy is most certainly in honor of The Shining‘s never-ending hallways. And the never-ending hallways are probably in honor of all those drugs he’s — uh, his character is hyped up on.

2013 Carrie Referenced during the pig slaughter scene: "Don't worry, little piggy. Uncle Jack is gonna bash your head right in."

 

Also visually referenced when Carrie peers through a splintered door.

 

Television programs

 

Big Mouth (2019)

 

Season 3, episode 1 In the principal's office, a framed photo of the Overlook Hotel (Timberline Lodge) can be seen.

 

Family Guy (2009)

 

References-Family Guy-twins.jpg

 

The scene when Danny is riding through the hotel and sees the spirits of the Grady twin girls has been parodied in "Peter, Peter, Caviar Eater" and in the opening of "PTV". In the latter, Stewie Griffin runs over the twins with his tricycle. In the former he blows them up with a bazooka missile.

In "Love Thy Trophy", Stewie’s letter blocks spell “REDRUM,” or “MURDER” backwards which is spoken many times by Danny Torrance as a warning to the danger the family faces and a hint to the hotel's bloody past.

 

The Simpsons (1994)

 

Considering that it’s one of the greatest terror tales of all time, it’s no surprise that there’s a “Treehouse of Horror” special devoted to The Shining. Amusingly titled “The Shinning,” the episode sees the Simpson family as caretakers of the Burns mansion. And, inevitably, “No TV and no beer make Homer something something.”

 

The Office (2008)

 

Dwight Shrute interrupts Michael’s new office plans to channel his inner Jack Torrance, looking a whole lotta crazy as he pulls back his hair and proudly shouts to the camera, “All work and no play makes Michael a dull boy.” He’s pretty great at it. We’d imagine Dwight’s life at the beet farm is a lot like life at the Overlook, just with more beets and less beatings.

 

Daria (1998)

 

Everyone knows that kid — the one who whips out a pointer finger and chants “redrum” whenever a creepy building is thrown into the mix. As her family’s car approaches a hotel resembling the Overlook, Daria is that kid.

Commercials

 

Bing.com commercial (2009)

 

This 2009 Bing.com advertisement shows how The Shining would have played out if Wendy Torrance were to have the Internet at her fingertips. Be sure to Bing, “What do I do when my husband chases me up the stairs with a bat,” Wendy, because we’re pretty sure you’re at that scene.

 

Music

 

Slipknot, “Spit It Out” (1999)

 

The 1999 music video for “Spit It Out” covers all its Shining bases — twins, axes, “Slipknot” written à la “Redrum,” and even a snowy maze to boot. We’re glad the real thing didn’t involve Slipknot masks; the last thing those hallways needed was a clown.

 

Thirty Seconds to Mars, "The Kill (Bury Me)" (2006)

 

The music video for "The Kill (Bury Me)" is based on the plot of The Shining, with the band arriving at an abandoned hotel with a striking resemblance to the Overlook Hotel. Various scenes mimic those from the film, including the typewriter and the woman in the bathroom.

 

Video Games

 

Duke Nukem 3D (created 2004)

 

Gamers were given a treat in the form of “The Shining 2,” a mod level for Duke Nukem 3D. In this version, players can explore the grounds of the Overlook Hotel without limitations. We’d try to avoid that room with the guy in the bear suit. You know the one.

 

LIVE-ACTION AND ANIMATED MOVIES

 

Finding Nemo (2003) During the chase sequence. After Marlin and Dory escape the shark facility. Bruce is going berserk and banging the door. He saying, "HERE'S BRUCEY!" As referred to "Here's Johnny!"

 

The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge out of Water (2015) In the scene where Plankton is searching inside SpongeBob's brain to find the secret Krabby Patty formula, he finds himself in a candy world and even encounters two popsicle twins stuck together, greeting Plankton saying, "Hello, Plankton. Come play with us." before adding, "Hurry… before we melt."

 

The Angry Birds Movie (2016) In the scene where Red and Chuck are going door-to-door to find the stolen bird eggs, Red opens one door, revealing two pigs dressed up in identical blue dresses. They both say "Redrum" dramatically, leaving Red looking uncomfortable and closes the door afterward.

 

Coco (2017) In the scene where Miguel is chasing after Dante through the art room, he passes by a painting of the Grady Twins as skeletons.

 

Ready Player One (2018) The second key challenge in the OASIS takes place in The Shining film itself. All the events of The Shining challenge appear; the Grady Twins, the elevator of blood, Lorraine, the elderly naked lady and Jack Torrance. (only his legs and ax show)

Most wouldn’t expect nods to Kubrick’s film in family-friendly Pixar movies, but because one of the studio’s filmmakers, Lee Unkrich, has a lifelong obsession with “The Shining,” references can be found as early as “Toy Story,” where the Overlook’s carpet pattern appears in the home of Sid, the toy terrorizer. Since then, Easter eggs have continued to appear, whether in “Toy Story 3,” which nods to the hotel’s haunted room 237 in an instant messenger chat handle (Velocistar 237), or in a sequence from “Coco,” where Jack Nicholson’s “Here’s Johnny” ax can be seen in the background.
