Thank you so much!

I think there's been maybe one or two Pixar movies I haven't cried at. But the Toy Story movies? Up? Wall-E? Monsters Inc.? Get me every time. Even The Incredibles made me choke up a bit in the middle there.

I'm curious - does Spanish!Buzz speak something other than Spanish in the dub? Or does he just speak really over-the-top dramatic Spanish (which he still does in the English version)? My brother thought he might speak Italian in the dubs but then the attempted flamenco dancing wouldn't make any sense. And Timothy Dalton has a smaller role than I thought he would, but he does so much with it. It just made the whole movie better for me.

Normally that's what I'd go for since it's a lot easier, but some of the requests I took this round specifically request porn of some sort, so I kind of feel like I have to, whereas if it was a more general prompt I could get away with keeping the rating down.

In the Latin American dub, at least, he does speak really over-the-top dramatic Spanish, with an accent from Spain. It's almost as foreign to us as it is to people in the US, really. XD They did that for the Puss in Boots in Shrek's dub, too.

Spain itself tends to have its own dubs for movies, though. I have no idea how they managed to translate the joke there.

I thought it might be something like that, since the joke wasn't so much that he was speaking Spanish as that he'd become a Ricardo Montalban knockoff. :)

I kind of want to investigate the European dubs and see how they each played the joke now.
