References in Pixar

 * In Toy Story, during the song "Strange Things", when Rex roars at Mr. Potato Head, his roar sounds just like the Tyrannosaurus rex in Jurassic Park.
 * In A Bug's Life, when Dim roars during his Circus act at his first appearance and to help Dot scare Thumper away, he uses the same sound effect.
 * In Toy Story 2, while inside Al's Toy Barn, Rex appears in a rear-view mirror (viewed by Mr. Potato Head) as he tries to catch up with the car, parodying a scene from Jurassic Park where a T-Rex appears in a rear-view mirror when chasing a crew in a jeep (although for entirely different reasons as the T-Rex in the film was trying to eat the crew in the car, while Rex was attempting to get back in the car).
 * Coincidentally, Wayne Knight, who played in Al McWhiggin in Toy Story 2 (and later Emperor Zurg in Buzz Lightyear of Star Command), also played Dennis in Jurassic Park.
 * In The Incredibles, the island that Syndrome lives on might be based on Jurassic Park island.
 * In Toy Story 3, when Rex appears out of the ground, he roared with the Jurassic Park T-Rex roar.
 * In one of the Toy Story of Terror! deleted scenes, there is a movie titled Jurassic Water Park.
 * In The Good Dinosaur, The climactic fight between the T-Rex and the velociraptors at the end is reenacted in the Good Dinosaur, when confronting the cattle thieves.

Trivia

 * A Bug's Life and The Incredibles are currently the only two Pixar films other than the Toy Story movies that parody Jurassic Park.
 * Michael Giacchino who composed many Pixar movies also composed the fourth Jurassic Park film, Jurassic World.
