That was a wee bit creepy, but yet so hilarious. “Can I do that take again? I think it needs something…I know! I can gather up a bunch of spit! Yes that’s perfect!”
haha, I used to love the outtakes from Pixar… shame they don’t still do them 
It actually disturbs me a little. Now, let us move on…
Honestly, every time Woody gets crushed/hurt/punched on Toy Story, I cringe. Same goes for Buzz, but not as much. Also, I always freak out when Syndrome starts electroquting Mr. Incredible. It wouldn’t make sense w/o that scene, and I kind of like it, but I hate to watch one of my favorite characters get hurt.
I’m not sure if this would be the right place to say this (after all this is the Feature Films forum), but this definitely pertains to the thread title.
Did anyone else think that the baby in Tin Toy was extremely scary and disturbing? I mean, talk about major uncanny valley, that baby gave me nightmares!
The texture of the baby scared me the most 
Yeah, that baby was almost as bad as the clown in Red’s Dream 
Not sure if I’d call this “disturbing”, but I did find the way that Bruce’s eyes blacked over after smelling Dory’s blood in Finding Nemo to be a little creepy.
Of course, that’s immediately undercut by the hilarity of Chum and Anchor crying, “INTERVENTION!” 
Yeah, I found that weird too, mogwai. I watched a programme a few weeks ago in which they disected a Great White, and the way Bruce’s eyes black over reminds me of when they showed how sharks have these sort of second eyelids which they use to roll back their eyes into their sockets as they make a kill. This protects the eyes and also causes them to look very much like Bruce’s when he is overpowered by his instincts.
Not exactly top 5 (I’d have to rewatch all the movies again to make a firmer decision), but here’s the top 5 that came to my mind:
-
Toy Story 2 - Woody’s nightmare about Andy ‘binning him’. The whole “I don’t love you anymore” line, and the playing cards transition, and the ‘dragged into the garbage by dismembered toy hands’ made me cry when I first saw it (I was, what, 12 years old? It was that scary!). Still gives me the willies.
-
Cars - Chick Hicks being shredded by Fred. I get it was supposed to be funny, but it came out freaky for me. Pixarians always come up with such twisted nightmares.
-
A Bug’s Life - The whole ‘you let one ant stand up’ speech and demo by Hopper. I mean, look at his face when the dissenters were being buried alive! There’s nothing in those cold, emotionless eyes!
-
Up - Carl Muntz explaining the ‘mysterious disappearances’ of former explorers. He actually keeps their skulls, for heaven’s sake! That is just demented.
-
Toy Story 3 - [spoil]The incinerator scene. It was very powerful, because this is the moment the toys face their mortality. Equal parts touching and terrifying, as the gang realizes that “This Is It”.[/spoil]
In the version of Cars that I saw, both in theaters and on DVD, Chick HIcks simply crashes in the Piston Cup final race and is out of the race and out of the contention for the Cup. He doesn’t get shredded.

Here’s my Top 5 Most Disturbing Pixar Moments, but with only one moment per film.
5: The Scream Extractor from Monsters, Inc. It’s very disturbing to see Fungus literally have his screams sucked out of him, and the fact that it almost happened to Mike and Boo as well only makes it creepier.
4: In Toy Story, when the Little Green Man is destroyed by Scud in Sid’s house. By this point we already knew Sid was a demented guy, but the moment of truth was when LGM meets his end. At least he comes back to take revenge on Sid.
3: During The Incredibles when Syndrome’s cape gets caught in the jet engine. The same joke that made us laugh our hearts out before, (No Capes!), made us squirm in our seats moments later.
2: The infamous [spoil]incinerator[/spoil] scene from Toy Story 3. It might be too early to put Toy Story 3 on my list (let alone as the runner-up), but it is mighty disturbing.
1: Hopper’s death in A Bug’s Life. I don’t know what’s more disturbing, the fact that Hopper gets ripped into three pieces (off-screen), or those ugly baby chicks. Whatever you think of this scene, you have to admit it was dark, and a great end to a great villain.
Honorable Mentions: Woody’s nightmare in Toy Story 2, Darla in Finding Nemo, the tractors licking Lightning in Cars, Remy and his dad looking at the dead rats in Ratatouille, Wall•E driving past all the “dead” Wall•E units in search for spare parts, and Charles Muntz’s chilling speech about previous explorers in Up.
The car that you’re referring to who crashed in the final race is ‘The King’, the blue Plymouth Superbird. Chick Hicks is the obnoxious green race car and he was shredded by Frank (the error I made in the last post was ‘Fred’) the combine harverster in Lightning McQueen’s nightmare. 
Skip to 2:00 of this video to see the scene I’m referring to.
I know who Chick Hicks is; he is the car that looks like Dale Earnheart, Sr., and basically acts like him, too(sorry all you Dale Sr. fans, but he wasn’t known for his gentlemanly demeanor on the track). The video link only shows the scene where Lightning and Sally go driving out in the desert. In the version of the movie that I saw in theaters and on the DVD I have, Chick Hicks just crashes and is hauled off to the garage, but that’s what happens to race cars that wreck and that is where they are repaired. He LOST, but he’s not destroyed. I distinctly recall that being one of the reasons I actually liked Cars, though I seem to be in a minority in doing so, because there was no real villain who was just out to get the “good guy”, and indeed, the “good guy” himself starts out as a complete jerk with few redeeming qualities and really is no better than his competitor, but Lightning does get to have experiences which bring out his better side, the one that the competitive win-at-all-costs side had masked.

Uh… are we watching the same video? Yeah, Lightning and Sally go for a drive, but you skipped too far ahead. This is a screenshot one second before 2:00, when Chick gets shredded in Lightning’s nightmare.
Chick’s the green car voiced by Michael Keaton. In both theatrical and DVD versions I saw, Chick gets turned into pulp (well, the dream version that is). This was the disturbing scene I was referring to in my earlier post. Maybe you got confused him with another racecar or you saw a deleted scene?
But yeah, I, too, liked the moral ambiguity that went with Cars. Lightning is actually a pretty offensive jerk in the beginning, and it takes the good hearts and love from the citizens of Radiator Springs to turn him around.
I’d forgotten all about the dream scene, thedriveintheatre. You’re right, that’s pretty morbid! But hey, that’s dreams for you.
I’m doing the Hopper scene in a drama monologue… it’s difficult to have to act emotionless, and actually makes you feel real different to, which makes it sort of difficult to watch. Also, the fact that Wall-E is alone on a godforsaken version of Earth is kinda creepy…
I also found the Sid’s bedroom scene sort of disturbing
Gaaah! That was the first thing that came to my mind too! It creeped me out. So did the clown from Red’s Dream, for that matter.
My Top 5 (please note I have not seen Toy Story 3 yet):
- The bait shop scene from Ratatouille
- The nightmare from Toy Story 2
- All Thumper scenes from Bug’s Life
- Hopper getting eaten in Bug’s Life
- The mutant toys teaching Sid a lesson in Toy Story. That gave me nightmares as a kid! I still get a bit scared watching it.
Has anyone mentioned how many people died in The Incredibles?
Here are my Top 5:
5. The [spoil] incenerator [/spoil] scene from TS3. That really had me freaked out for a while.
4. After Carl loses the house and Muntz, he’s standing on the very edge of The Spirit of Adventure. I’m terrified of heights, so in my head I was screaming “MOVE AWAY!” I couldn’t have agreed more with Dug when he said, “Oh I am ready to not be up high!”
3. When EVE releases WALL-E from the Holo-Detector, and you see he’s just beat up and crushed, I felt awful. WALL-E’s just so cute and innocent and to see him just about dead feels terrible.
2. The baby from Tin Toy
- [spoil]That monkey from TS3!
[/spoil]
Where did you find that? I can’t seem to find it on YouTube or any mention of it anywhere…
