˙The first Pixar film since Finding Nemo (2003) not to be presented in the
2.35:1 aspect ratio.

自《海底總動員》（2003）以來首部非1:2.35比例呈現的皮克斯動畫。


˙The first Michael Giacchino-scored Pixar film not directed by Brad Bird.

首部麥可吉亞奇諾所配樂，而非布萊德柏德執導的皮克斯動畫。
兩人共同合作過的皮克斯動畫有《超人特攻隊》（2004）和《料理鼠王》（2007）。


˙Very first animated film, as well as the first 3D film, ever to open the
Cannes Film Festival.

不僅是皮克斯首部的3D動畫電影，甚至是首部於坎城影展作為開幕片的3D動畫電影。


˙The first Pixar film to be given a PG rating since The Incredibles (2004).

自《超人特攻隊》（2004）後首次電影評級為PG級的皮克斯動畫。


˙Russell is Pixar's first Japanese/Asian-American character voiced by an
Asian-American actor, Jordan Nagai.

男孩羅素是皮克斯首部亞裔美國人角色，由亞裔美國人喬登奈高配音。


˙The term 'A113' is the number of the courtroom, and can be found on the gold
sign Carl sits next to while waiting to be called (Courtroom A113). A113 is
a
frequent Pixar in-joke based on one of the room numbers for the animation
program at Cal Arts.

「A113」是皮克斯每部動畫都會出現的隱藏字元，源自動畫師們於CalArts加州藝術學院
上課時的教室號碼。本次A113出現在卡爾爺爺在法庭外等候時，旁邊鍍金的門牌號碼。

˙When Carl is watching television, and is interrupted by Russell knocking at
the door, he is watching a home shopping channel. This particular program has
become a well-known blooper video of a pitchman making a gaff in which he
describes a picture of a horse, except the picture he is describing is
actually that of a moth.

卡爾正在看電視，羅素敲門打擾的片段，卡爾所看的電視節目正是購物頻道。
何以得知？
先來聽聽動畫裡頭，開頭到敲門前那段
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SDkt-LdwAkk
再來是這段廣告，從拿出圖片部分開始
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ALob2IKOHD0

是不是一樣，真佩服發現找出來的鄉民。


˙The legendary singer Charles Aznavour performs the voice of Carl in the
French version.

法國版本的卡爾爺爺是由法國國寶傳奇歌手查爾阿茲納弗配音。


˙Dug's 'point' pose, where his entire tail, back, and head is in a perfectly
straight line, is an homage to the identical pose that Mickey's dog, Pluto,
often makes. Coincidently, Dug shares Pluto's color scheme as well.

會說人話的小狗─小逗從頭至尾挺直的狗姿勢，是向迪士尼米奇的狗─布魯托致敬。
正巧，小逗亦符合布魯托的顏色設計。


˙If Carl's house was approximately 1600 square feet, and the average house
weighs between 60-100 pounds per square foot, it weighs 120,000 pounds. If
the average helium balloon can carry .009 pounds (or 4.63 grams), it would
take 12,658,392 balloons to lift his house off the ground. (20,622 balloons
appear on the house when it first lifts off.)

假若卡爾房子略估1600平方英尺，且平均每平方英尺屋重60至100磅，總重共達12萬磅。
假若平均一顆氦氣氣球可拉起0.009磅，須得要12,658,392顆氣球才能使房屋升起地面。
動畫裡房子首次離開地面時，僅模擬繪製了20,622顆氣球。


˙Pixar is known for sticking a few objects from previous films into their new
features. In this case, you can spot the "Luxo ball" (yellow and blue with a
red star) in a little girl's room while the house can be seen rising through
the window in the background. This ball has appeared in many other Pixar
films. Also, the Pizza Planet truck from Toy Story (1995) is visible on the
streets bellow the rising house towards the beginning of the movie, as well
as in a parking lot in a scene towards the end.

皮克斯眾所皆知的彩蛋－每部都會現身的物件－跳跳球和披薩行星車也在裡頭出沒。

跳跳球－顯而易見地就在窗外萬顆氣球升起的那幕的小女孩房間地板上。(預告即有)
披薩行星車－同樣於氣球升起，空照地面時就停靠在街道旁。

˙As per Pixar tradition, John Ratzenberger once again provides a voice in the
movie, making him the only actor to do a voice in every Pixar film.

依據皮克斯傳統，每部動畫都會有固定班底－約翰雷森博格配音。
皮克斯會為他設計專屬角色來配音，本次是建地工頭湯姆（Foreman Tom）。

玩具總動員（Toy Story）──火腿（Hamm）
蟲蟲危機（A Bug’s Life）──跳蚤團長（P.T. Flea）
怪獸電力公司（Monster Inc.）──雪人（Snowman）
海底總動員（Finding Nemo）──魟老師（Fish School）
超人特攻隊（The Incredibles）──挖地道工人（Underminer）
汽車總動員（Cars）──拖車麥克（Mack Truck）
料理鼠王（Ratatouille）──服務生接待員（Mustafa）
瓦力（WALL·E）──胖男約翰（John）

可以發現即使角色不同，但在造型設計上形象都有雷同之處。


˙It is possible that Carl and Russell's hometown or destination at the end is
implied to be Oakland, as near the end of the film they visit Fenton's
Creamery, a Oakland landmark. In the end credits, a Polaroid photo shows Carl
and Russell leaving a showing of Star Wars (1977) at the Fox Oakland Theatre,
another Oakland landmark.

據推測卡爾和羅素的家鄉居住地可能傾向位於美國加州的奧克蘭。
在片尾名單的影像裡可見奧克蘭著名的景點地標Fentons Creamery和Fox Oakland戲院。
http://bitcast-a.bitgravity.com/slashfilm/images/upfentons.jpg
Fentons Creamery是當地有名的冰淇淋店。

且皮克斯動畫工作室總部也座落於奧克蘭北部的舊金山灣。


˙All of the dogs except for Dug are named after letters of the Greek alphabet
(Alpha, Beta, Gamma, etc.).

除了小逗，其餘所有狗名都取自於希臘符號。
台灣音譯為發哥、B咖、馬弟。

˙Pixar's shortest movie title to date.

皮克斯動畫至今最短的英片片名。


˙The tepui (flat mountains) and waterfalls similar to Paradise Falls are
actually found in Venezuela. The country's Angel Falls is the highest
waterfall in the world.

動畫裡桌山和瀑布景觀皆是花11天實地取材於巴西委內瑞拉的特普依山脈。
當地的天使瀑布是全世界最高的瀑布。


˙When Russell flies past the airship using his balloons and the leaf blower,
we briefly see several of Charles Muntz's dogs playing poker at a card table.
This is a tribute to the famous "Dogs Playing Poker" series of paintings by
Cassius Marcellus Coolidge.

狗在牌桌上玩牌的畫面是向經典畫作「玩牌的狗們」系列致敬。
沒聽過此系列？Google圖片搜尋Dogs Playing Poker就明瞭了。

˙Carl Fredricksen's face and gruff personality are based on Spencer Tracy and
Walter Matthau.

卡爾爺爺設計原型和特質是結合史賓塞崔西和華特馬殊兩位美國知名老演員。


˙The villain Charles Muntz is named after Charles Mintz, the Universal
Pictures executive who in 1928 stole Walt Disney's production rights to his
highly-successful "Oswald the Lucky Rabbit" cartoon series. This led Walt
Disney to create Mickey Mouse, who soon eclipsed Oswald in popularity.

反派查爾斯蒙茲取名來自迪士尼創始人之一查爾斯明茲，1928年將迪士尼成功卡通
系列「幸運兔奧斯華」版權偷賣給環球成為環球影業的經理。也讓華特迪士尼另起
爐灶創造出米奇家族，不久即擊敗奧斯華兔風靡全球。


˙When Carl wakes up and hits the alarm button in the beginning, he has
several
pill bottles on his bedside. One of these pill bottles bears the name "Luxo,"
another one of Pixar's many references to Luxo Jr. (1986).

開頭卡爾醒來按鬧鐘按鈕，床邊其中一瓶藥瓶上名稱為「Luxo,」，是皮克斯早期的
動畫名稱《頑皮跳跳燈》（Luxo Jr.，1986）。


˙During pre-production of the film, director Pete Docter looked up to Disney
veteran animators Frank Thomas, Ollie Johnston, and Joe Grant for
inspiration. Docter stated that the film reflects the friendship he shared
with these three talented animators before their passing as well as wanting
to learn what they went through during their years working for Walt Disney
and afterwards.

電影前製階段，導演彼得達克特拜訪了迪士尼動畫元老們法蘭克湯瑪斯、奧立強司頓
和喬葛蘭特來尋求靈感。導演表示電影投射出他與三位元老逝世前的友誼，亦學到他
們為華特迪士尼年來打拼的歲月以及未來展望。


˙Co-director/co-writer Bob Peterson stated that Dug's line "I have just met
you, and I love you," was inspired by a quote from a small child that he met
when he was a camp counselor in the 1980s.

共同導演兼編劇包柏彼特森表示小逗的台詞「I have just met you, and I love you」
是引用自1980年代身為夏令營管理員時一位小孩所說。

˙Up’s Dug the dog appeared in silhouette in Brad Bird’s Ratatouille chasing
Remy through the walls of a building.

皮克斯角色在彼此的動畫客串裡是常有的事。
像是《怪獸電力公司》看到小女孩將《海底總動員》的尼莫交給毛怪，
在《海底總動員》的醫院小男孩看的書是《超人特攻隊》，
而《瓦力》也在《料理鼠王》的附錄短片當起太空船的駕駛，

這次在《天外奇蹟》裡的小逗，其實早在《料理鼠王》即有以影子現身出場了。



皮克斯動畫樂趣就在除了結構完整且觸人心弦的細緻劇情外，
影片裡還隱藏了許多小秘密等你來發掘。
