This article has been viewed enough times in a single week to appear in the Top 25 Report 2 times. The weeks in which this happened:

"the Turnip’s escape trajectory is compromised by Buzz" - how?

The article says that "the Turnip’s escape trajectory is compromised by Buzz". How, exactly? I didn't see him do anything that doomed the escape flight (though he blames himself for it). - Brian Kendig (talk) 22:14, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Plot - new fuel crystal?

"With a new fuel crystal created using the computer left behind during the mutiny..." Is there a source for this? You never see a replacement new crystal, and the computer is damaged during the mutiny ("The formula!" gasps Sox. Of course there should be backups and Sox himself should remember it, but still.) Is there a novelization stating this or something? RevWaldo (talk) 05:34, 2 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Lesbian-related films

I noticed the edit warring over including this category. There is a lesbian couple in the film: Alisha Hawthorne and Kiko. Their kiss is the first same-sex kiss shown in a Pixar feature: "‘Lightyear’ same-sex couple is part of an evolution at Pixar" (The Washington Post, June 17, 2022). The inclusion of lesbian characters resulted in the film being banned in 14 countries: "Pixar’s Lightyear banned in 14 countries over same-sex kiss" (The Independent, 14 June 2022) + "Lightyear’s same-sex kiss – the controversy that led to Disney’s first ‘real’ LGBTQ+ representation" (The Conversation, June 16, 2022). And don't forget: Commander Hawthorne is a significant character and Lightyear's best friend. Pyxis Solitary (yak yak). Ol' homo. 05:01, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
