I painted Buzz Lightyear in “Backstage Disneyland” as the wimp we briefly see in the movies - a sad, weak, pitiful excuse for a space ranger. Pretty much the mirror opposite of the Buzz we all know and love.
I would be sad too if I was paraded through town in shackles every night and kicked out of the only home I ever knew. It’s embarrassing and demoralizing. That kind of disrespectful treatment would eat at a spaceman.
I do give Buzz a glimmer of hope with Ariel - although she isn’t as faithful as he is. I suspect if there is ever a sequel to “Backstage Disneyland” that their romance will be explored in greater detail.
