The same-sex kiss first made headlines last month, when Pixar animators spoke out against Disney in an open letter obtained by Variety, saying that corporate executives had demanded cuts 'from nearly every moment of overtly gay affection.'Īccording to SlashFilm, 'Lightyear' producer Galyn Susman confirmed that Alisha's kiss was initially cut from the movie. 'It's funny, I wouldn't have met her if we hadn't been stranded,' Alisha tells Buzz as she flashes her engagement ring.Īn emotional montage shows glimpses of Alisha and her partner starting a family together, at one point greeting each other with a kiss on the lips. Time passes and Alisha soon gets engaged to a woman on the mission's science crew. But a crash landing and damaged ship derails their mission, forcing Buzz to find a new way to get their crew safely home to Earth. The film begins with Buzz and fellow space ranger Alisha landing on a strange planet, where they face off against winged aliens and an octopus-like creature.
