History TearJerker / MissingLink

!! 1988 Live Action Film

* When the Man-ape discovers his entire family slaughtered by humans.

* Mr. Link revealing to Sir Lionel that the former is the LastOfHisKind.

* After the yetis imprison our heroes, Mr. Link looks at his reflection in the ice. There's multiple reflections of him, yet he feels more alone than ever before, and he [[HeroicBSOD curls up on the floor]].

* Mr Collick's death is a bit unnerving, at the very least. He is not portrayed as a good person, per se, never questioning Lord Piggot-Dunceby's morally bankrupt plans, acting as a compliant stooge. At least, until the end of the movie, where he seems to have [[BrokenPedestal lost any sense of respect]] for the man, and is simply a person running for his life. Whereas Lord Piggot-Dunceby receives a KarmicDeath after trying to kill the heroes (and not seemingly caring if the others lived), and Mr. Stenk still tries to kill the heroes out of pride even after this happens, Mr. Collick's death seems somewhat cruel. Sir Lionel even looks back and is in a bit of shock when he falls.
* The RuleOfSymbolism where the last shot is of a stuffed dodo falling off its perch to reveal a photo of Susan and Sir Lionel. It's like it saying: "[[BittersweetEnding Yes, Susan will eventually]] [[{{Pun}} go the way of the dodo,]] [[SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoment but he won't be alone anymore.]]"

* The Man-Ape is left as the last of his kind as he watches the sunset alone, his entire species is doomed to extinction when he dies.
