- In the official trailer, we see Buzz and Alisha Hawkthrone connecting their pointer fingers together as they recite Buzz's most famous Catchphrase "To infinity and beyond" showing just how close those two were as friends.
- After the first Time Dilation, when Buzz catches up with Alisha, he spots her engagement ring and asks, "Who is she?", establishing both that Alisha is comfortable enough with him to be out of the closet and that he has absolutely zero problems with her being gay. Over the course of the Time-Passes Montage, we see that Alisha and her wife (Keiko) are together for over forty years.
- Also note that Alisha is doing her best through all this to keep Buzz in some of the most important moments of her life whenever she can.
- Also consider that, In-Universe, this movie is from The '90s, which weren't as progressive regarding LGBT+ individuals as The New '20s. It's likely that this was a legitimately bold statement on the part of the fictional filmmakers.
- In Alisha's final message to Buzz, he sees young Izzy saying she wants to be a space ranger as well. Alisha asks, "Just like him?" Izzy responds, "Just like you."
- A subtle moment at the abandoned mining facility. After escaping the control room, Mo gets sandwiches for everyone, which have changed during Buzz's time away from "bread meat bread" to "meat bread meat". While his teammates subtly tease him for being behind the times, they each voice their insecurities. Buzz in turn opens up about how miserable he was during his first week at the academy, and would've quit if Alicia didn't "see something inside him."
- Sox may very well be a physical embodiment of this. He sticks by Buzz the whole way through and is absolutely determined to help him in any way possible, showing immense consideration and concern from the word go and proving himself to care a TRUCKLOAD for the Space Ranger's physical and mental wellbeing. When Buzz is grabbed by one of Zurg's robots, Sox's immediate response is to leap into action and start disassembling the arm holding him. Doubly so for his future version, who betrays Zurg after he realizes the future Buzz has lost his way, even if it gets him killed.
- Sox's simple offer of condolences for the failure of his mission is enough to start getting through to Buzz, who's subtly touched at the robo-cat's concern.
- Buzz returns the favor. When the security guards show up, he seems to go along with their requests... until they announce that Sox is going to be decommissioned. At that point he immediately grabs Sox and leaps out the window.
- After setting the self-destruction timer on Zurg's ship, Future Sox asks Buzz if he wants to keep any of the cool technology on the ship. Buzz's answer? "Only you buddy."
- The fact that Sox stayed loyal to Buzz throughout the entire movie, even his future self, which shows how far the robotic cat was willing to go for his friend. Future Sox is so loyal to Buzz that he readily abandons the malignantly obsessed Future Buzz at the drop of a hat for the more level-headed Present Buzz.
- When Sox learns that Buzz was gone for four years, he asked if Buzz wanted a frosted snack cake to celebrate the four birthdays he had missed.
- When the sudden lurch of the Zurg ship botches Izzy's and Sox's spacewalk, they have to frantically grab ahold of antennae on the hull they're now drifting towards. Izzy has to surrender her handhold she grabbed in order to rescue Sox, who is tumbling off into space. She faces her astrophobia head-on and gets to work flinging between antennae to go rescue her robo-feline friend.
