6) Jessie Gets Abandoned By Her Owner In Toy Story 2
Did you ever expect to feel such feelings for a rootin’-tootin’ cowgirl doll?
Toy Story 2, in many ways the more mature cousin to Toy Story, capitalizes on the emotion of the original film – about toys trying to find their way back to their owner after they become accidentally separated – by pondering what happens when the toys are abandoned permanently, by owners that are simply too old to care anymore.
In preparation for an emotional A-bomb of a montage, Toy Story 2 briefly pauses the CGI-powered set-pieces and comedic leanings to tell Jessie’s story.
We see the sassy cowgirl in more content times, frolicking carefree with her owner as a young girl, before the owner grows up, becomes a young woman, and leaves Jessie to a donations truck, as though all the good times never meant anything.
Very, very cold.
