Pixar Theory: Cars

In the earlier Pixar films (specifically The Incredibles ), we see the villain Syndrome developing advanced AI (the Omnidroid) and zero-point energy. The theory suggests that over centuries, this technology advanced to the point where machines became self-aware.

Pixar has never officially confirmed the theory. Director John Lasseter always described Cars as "what if cars lived instead of people." However, the theory persists because of the meticulous background details Pixar plants. Some fans place Cars WALL-E , arguing the cars are an experiment gone wrong that displaced humanity. Others say Cars exists in a separate "vehicle multiverse" alongside Planes . pixar theory cars
