Fucking hell, Pixar!!!!!! *MNHQ tweaked title*

Just watched the first 15 minutes of Up! for the first time. I am a BROKEN WOMAN!! I didn’t think anything could be worse than Disney killing Bambi’s mum, and here it is. Please tell me I’m not the only one?!

I went to see Toy Story 3 when I was pregnant and ugly sobbed at the scene where all the toys are in the incinerator and hold hands while accepting their fate. I felt slightly better when the cinema lights came up and there were quite a few others doing the same thing.

Dumbo does it for me. Just need to hear baby of mine and I'm a mess. Hits a bit too close to home for reasons I won't bore you with but it's the saddest moment in Disneys history for me

My husband cried at the start of Up.

But for me nothing will ever be worse than little foots mum in the land before time 😭😭😭

Gosh. I'm so sorry - it must have felt like this for a lot of people.

My husband was a widower when we met. The bit in Up where there is a montage of the old couples life together made him sob. He has cried 4 times in the 23 years I have known him.

Made me cry too. And the bit where Andy goes to college.

I saw Up in the cinema as I was recovering from a miscarriage. My best friend was with me, along with a bunch of people who had no idea. She held my hand through the whole film. She’s a good egg.

Oh Bing Bong 😭😭😭😭 "Just one more time, I think we can do it" wail

I watched it for the first time when I was about 6 weeks pregnant with DS (first pregnancy) I got to about 10 minutes and was absolutely hysterical, DH had to turn it off. I've never even been able to consider watching it again and DS is almost 13! 😳😭😭😭😭

Oh goodness, I’ve never watched Up ( either dodged the cinema, or fell asleep at home in the movie ) but I love Dug Days, quite unreasonably so much 😀

I will now have to watch Up.

@LindorDoubleChoc you clicked on a thread with Pixar in the title so clearly this was going to be about animation, and then are surprised it’s not grown up….? You could just, you know, not bother reading it if it offends your more sophisticated and glamorous cinematic proclivities.

Now imagine watching it for the first time and you also have your eldest DD named Ellie with you and your Golden Retriever dog is called Doug (Dug). Cos that’s us.

Although, having said that, for every subsequent dog we have had, we also have ‘Squirrel!’ and ‘Dug Ear’, so there is that.

Yes. I was not long after miscarrying and watched it with Ds1 and OH and I was hysterical. Can't watch it

Don't know of anyone else enticed it but apparently the lead in the paint they used back in the day from their house renovation that caused the miscarriage

@ZombieBoob oh god me too!! I’d forgotten all about Dumbo!!

Don't be ridiculous.

Me and DD watched How to train your dragon 2 in the cinema,which utterly broke her.

The next morning we chucked Up on, having never seen it before. 15 minutes in I was informed that I was never to pick a film ever ever again, through floods of tears.

It seemed like a good point to be fair!

Up and Finding Nemo both have awful opening scenes. Not what you want from a cartoon!

The last ten minutes of Toy Story 4 are the ones that get me every time. "She'll be okay... Bonnie will be okay."

I wasn't even fussed about the other three films 😂

This movie is now infamous in our family. I teared up, no surprise there. I glanced sideways and saw DS, who'd have been about 7, with tears rolling silently down his cheeks. That was surprising. As I leaned over to put an arm round him, I saw DH sobbing. THAT was unprecedented. He only ever cried at the births of our kids. Only 10yo DD was unmoved, just munching her popcorn 😅

Now DH jokes that he only cries at the births of his children or the deaths of animated imaginary friends.

Agree …..Wall-E is equally as astonishing…and rapidly becoming reality.

I still cry when Andy gives Woody and gang away in Toy Story 3.

I can’t bring myself to rewatch Dumbo or Bambi again despite barely remembering them.

The Fox and the Hound wins saddest scene of all for me.

Inside Out was really really sad

My friend’s DD asked me to watch Up with her when I was babysitting her. I’d just lost my second IVF baby to miscarriage and dh and I were starting to come to terms with a life without children.

I think I scared her a little bit by just how distraught I was at the film 😢😢

My at the time newish dp suggested watching it I asked is it sad he said no 🤔 it was unbelievably sad.
The only worse day was the day I watched black beauty and ai not a good decision.

FWIW, I'm a childless widow so you can imagine how it hit me. However, it does get less sad. Keep watching, you won't regret it.
