Trivia

 * For some ways, it is mostly similar to the 2016 film, Finding Dory because:
 * Both have main characters finding their families.
 * Both have main characters guided by a different species.
 * Both main characters are young at the beginning (Marlin in this movie, and Dory in Finding Dory).
 * Marlin, Dory, and Nemo go to the EAC again.
 * A predator tries to eat one of the main characters (in Finding Dory, a giant squid tries to eat Nemo; In this movie, a Megalodon shark tries to eat Dory).
 * For some ways, it is similar to the 2002 film, Ice Age because:
 * The barracuda is named after the main antagonist from Ice Age, along with the pack.
 * Diego the piranha meets up with two of his pack mates in the Open Ocean exhibit.
 * The scene where the barracudas attack the reef is similar to the scene in Ice Age where the saber-toothed tigers are attacking the humans.
 * When the gang returns to the ocean, Marlin tries to kill a traitorous Diego by pinning him on a wall for confessing his plans to bring Marlin and his clownfish family to Soto the barracuda.
 * The scene where Marlin knocks a distracted Soto the barracuda into a wall and a bunch of boulders crush Soto to death is similar to the scene in Ice Age where the main antagonist gets stabbed by icicles.
 * Finding Marlin is also the sixth movie to include blood, the first being Finding Nemo, the second being The Incredibles, the third being Up, the fourth being Brave and the fifth being The Good Dinosaur.
 * It includes blood because the part where Soto gets crushed by some boulders, and after his death, blood leaks out of him.
 * In the credits, Arlo from The Good Dinosaur can be seen swimming (just like Mike Wazowski in the credits of the first movie).
