I apologize in advance for the emotional rollercoaster you will experience within the next 600 some-odd words. I'd advise you go ahead and grab the nearest box of tissues and a pint of Ben and Jerrys. Got it? Okay good. Now you may continue:
1. Lilo and Stitch
Every Disney fan was crying all in their box of popcorn during Lilo and Stitch when Stitch was alone in the woods after leaving Lilo. Cue the instant wailing and blubbering when she quotes the Ugly Duckling in his sweetest little voice. It left all of screaming "OHANA, LILO! OHANA!" at our tv screens.
2. A Goofy Movie
After wanting to throat punch Max for being so sassy with his lovable klutz of a father in A Goofy Movie, we all died a little inside when Goofy pleaded that he "only wanted to be a part" of Max's newfound independence. It's okay, Goof, we want you to be our dad. *insert Goofy gulp-laugh here*
3. Up
Did you really think this article would be complete without Up? Considering everyone was scarred emotionally for life only five minutes into Up. Sorry Carl and Ellie, but I often fast forward in order to avoid the need for therapy. I'd suggest everyone else do the same.
4. Toy Story 3
Toy Story 3 left every 90's baby with a humongous lump in their throats pretending to be unfazed as grown-up Andy handed over his toys and his childhood (cough, cough, OUR CHILDHOOD) to Bonnie.
5. Finding Nemo
Finding Nemo totally destroyed your emotions with the murder of Pearl... and the Marlin's loving monologue to his only child survive. You never knew that the death of a clown fish could affect you so much, right?
6. Bambi
Disney continues a "dead mothers within the first 5 minutes" trend. Not only was Bambi a new found orphan, but alone in a freaking blizzard. Why, Disney, why?! Why couldn't you hire Ashton Kutcher to pop out of a pile of snow or something with Bambi's momma ALIVE and be like "Sike! We got you, Bambi! You've just been Punk'd?!" and let them frolic back into the forest?
7. Dumbo
Oh my lanta, if Dumbo's "baby mine" scene didn't leave you a sniffling pile of snot and tears then you, my friend, have no heart. Nothing warms your heart like the love of a mother and her child... and nothing breaks it faster than watching them be separated.
8. Fox and The Hound
"No! No! No! Don't you leave him! Turn around! Come back! He's already been abandoned once! YOU MONSTER! Todd, noon!" - direct quote from watching Fox and The Hound when Widow Tweed is forced to return Todd to the forest.
9. Monsters Inc.
When Sully had to leave Boo and we were so overcome with the feels that we didn't even consider why Boo's parents hadn't realized that she was missing for so long. "Oh honey! Where have you been?" "Oh you know, the usual Ma, practically got kidnapped by a giant shag carpet. No biggy. Btw, we need to re-evaluate your whole 'checking for monsters under my bed' strategy."
10. The Lion King
The epitome of Disney heartbreak: Mufasa's death scene in The Lion King. You felt personally betrayed when you were 6 and you still want vengeance at 22. Poor Simba.
