10 Pixar Moments That Will Reduce You To Tears

8) Buzz Will Go Sailing No More

While it doesn’t yank on your heartstrings quite as much as the following two instalments in the franchise, Pixar’s triumphant debut Toy Story still has its emotional moments. The most tear-jerking though has to be Buzz’s realization that he isn’t some cosmic superhero but a mere child’s plaything.

Set to Randy Newman’s “I Will Go Sailing No More” (the exact opposite in tone to “You Got A Friend In Me”), Buzz denies the truth one last time by attempting to fly out the window. Instead, he crashes down the staircase and loses an arm. Once Buzz realizes he can’t fly and a horrified expression falls over his plastic face, we are essentially watching the beloved space ranger committing suicide. He comes to terms with being a toy in the end, but this moment will still have you crying to infinity and beyond.
