With Pixar movies, we really get the total package-- humor, love, adventure, and a lot of fun Easter eggs. They also contain a lot of truly heartbreaking moments, some of which are really subtle. Nothing seems to slip by Pixar's biggest fans online, though, and they've collected many of these moments for us to shed a tear over. As anyone who has seen Up knows, the opening sequence is basically one big tearjerker. It's easy to miss, however, that when Carl attends Ellie's funeral he wears a clip-on bow tie because his late wife used to always tie his necktie for him. Some details are just downright depressing. In The Incredibles, Bob has a dead-end job at Insuricare. It's worse than you think, though. In a memo, we can see that the company actually charges its employees for basic amenities like electricity usage. Small visual details also play a key role. In Toy Story 2, if you look closely you can actually see the damage on Wheezy's voice box that gives him his signature wheeze.
Check out this list of heartbreaking details fans spotted in Pixar movies, and don't forget to vote up your favorites!
