Other Trivia

 * This is the first time real blood was seen in a Pixar movie. The second time was in The Incredibles. The third time was in Up. The fourth time was in Brave.
 * This is the only G rated movie to have blood.
 * The film's prominent use of clownfish prompted mass purchase of the animals for children's pets in the United States, even though the movie portrayed the use of fish as pets negatively and that saltwater aquariums are notably tricky and expensive to maintain. As of 2004, in Vanuatu, clownfish were being caught on a large scale for sale as pets, motivated by the demand.
 * The movie is the first ever movie to get a PG rating from the MPAA in New Zealand.
 * The second Pixar film to have the words "the end" appear in the final scene just before the credits, with the first one being A Bug's Life.
 * In the fullscreen version of the film, you can actually see the visible portion of a female patient's legs as she is entering the waiting room and is mistaken for Darla. Unfortunately, this is only present in the 2003 original home video release, the upcoming Blu-ray release only contains the widescreen version, however, her legs are still visible even in that version, but she (and her son, see cameo of Mr. Incredible above) were sitting.
 * This is the first Pixar film to take place in a country other than the United States, instead taking place in the seas surrounding the eastern half of Australia, with the second being Ratatouille (France), the third being Cars 2 (multiple locations such as Japan, France, Italy, and the United Kingdom, though the United States can be seen in the opening and ending), and the fourth being Brave (Scotland).
