- The entire montage of Jim's growth and the development of his friendship with Long John Silver, inter cut with flashbacks of his father abandoning him to show Silver as his father figure. Also set the lovely I'm Still Here by the Goo Goo Dolls.
- Same scene gave this troper a 50/50: Half Heartwarming, Half Tearjerker. Because... Hello, identifiable daddy-issues!
- The ending: Although these days it's practically required by Treasure Island remakes to turn Silver into a surrogate father to Jim Hawkins, this movie did it in a warm fuzzy believable way that gets you everytime.
- "Listen here, Jim. Your pap must've been daft to give up a gem like you. You've got the makings of greatness in you, my boy. You got to take the helm and chart your own course. Stick to it, no matter the squalls! And when the time comes you get the chance to really test the cut of your sails, and show what you're made of! Well, I hope I'm there, catching some of the light coming off you that day..."
- And he was.
- And for the cherry on the icing on the cake, "Always Know Where You Are" playing over the credits.
- This troper always finds the scene where Silver sacrifices the treasure in order to save Jim particulary sweet.
- Two things in particular: At the end, Jim looking up at the sky and seeing a cloud-form Silver smiling down (complete with a star for his eye), and this quote:
Silver: Look at you! Glowing like a solar fire. You're something special, Jim. You're gonna rattle the stars, you are! |
- The moment after escaping Treasure Planet's destruction via a portal back to the Spaceport, Doppler and Amelia hug in joy...then after a few seconds, they look at each other...and smile. D'awww.
