Pixar's Toy Story 2 Disaster vs. Backup Hero

A two-panel meme contrasting data loss disaster with backup heroism. Top panel: A worried animated child character (likely from a Pixar film) with the text 'Pixar accidentally deleting 90% of Toy Story 2,' referencing the real incident where Pixar nearly lost most of Toy Story 2 during production. Bottom panel: A radiant, winged character (Mercy from the game Overwatch) with the text 'An animator with backups on her home PC,' portraying the animator as a heroic savior for having backups. The meme humorously emphasizes the importance of data backups through this contrast.

A two-panel meme contrasting data loss disaster with backup heroism. Top panel: A worried animated child character (likely from a Pixar film) with the text 'Pixar accidentally deleting 90% of Toy Story 2,' referencing the real incident where Pixar nearly lost most of Toy Story 2 during production.

Origin notes

The meme originates from Reddit (as indicated by the source information) and is a remix/collage of two existing visual assets: a screenshot from an unspecified Pixar film (top panel) and a promotional image of Mercy from Overwatch (bottom panel). Additional text overlays are added to create the joke, and the bottom panel includes a watermark 'MEMELORD.COM,' suggesting it may have been hosted or shared via that platform.
