I still haven't seen this movie myself, but my daughter Olivia and my mom saw it and said it was very funny.

I stopped by McDonald's today for something to drink and saw they had a Nemo display, which is part of the Happy Meal toys for kids, and there it was....a puffer fish named Bloat. I thought that for 99 cents, without the Happy Meal, I could have my tiki-related thrill for the day so I bought one.

So I get home, open the package, and I figured that the designers from Disney/Pixar must have visited a tiki bar because I found that the Puffer can do this:

I thought it was pretty cool! You can keep him lit in your bar area by resting him on a quarter. There are 2 contact points that must be touched at the same time to keep it constantly on. You can even get it to do a blinking on/off sequence. There are 4 screws that hold the front and back of the puffer together, so you can change the battery after the juice runs out.

Just thought I'd share.
