LIFE IS A HIGHWAY
SOVL
I like that he has a israeli talent agent
Am I the only one who’s so autistic that I pay attention to all the highway signs during the film?
nah, im sure the animators were way more autistic. thats half the fun of working in that business. they flesh it out and get to add in shit that the editors and higher-ups never notice. could only imagine the insanity that went on during the days of merry melody.
I wish we saw more highway scenes. I also wish there was more highway games and sets
Just look at the amount of detail they put into these signs that you see for a second
Absolutely. But I agree with you. Hate to admit it but im a huge Pixar Easter egg gay. A113.
story and characters are good but the cars come to life conceit is dumb and juvenile. hate the way the cars are animated too
It’s not “cars come to life” really, it’s a universe where cars are life. There are no humans in the car universe. Only sentient vehicles. You think that’s more ridiculous than a rat who can cook and uses a humans hair to control his arms?
>You think that’s more ridiculous than a rat who can cook and uses a humans hair to control his arms?
yes. there is precedent for intelligent rats. cars are cars
Is there also a precedent for humans being controlled through their hair follicles? Dumbass
if I jerked your hair hard I guarantee you would move your hands
I’m bald homosexual nice try
hahahaha bald ass b***h. suck my nuts
I won’t have to worry about a rat controlling me. Check mate rats. Make your own Fricking food.
still more likely than a fricking car coming to life. checkmate cars
You’re an imbecile, “car coming to life”implies the universe in which cars exist they aren’t alive and become conscious. The entire world in the movies, is just vehicles. They are the only things that have life. Now if it’s a world with humans and a car starts talking, then it’s “cars come to life” (like transformers, knightrider, etc). Another example: Toy story is toys come to life because they have humans in their universe. You sound like an idiot.
>Linguini was snoring asleep after getting drunk on wine
>Remy was still able to control him
Can you prove there isn't?
>It’s not “cars come to life” really, it’s a universe where cars are life
I know there is a copy paste of Cars Hitler, I hope someone posts it.
If the characters were human, it'd just make the plagiarism of Doc Hollywood more obvious.
Lasseter was always unoriginal. Toy Story is just Jim Henson's Christmas Toy and A Bug's Life is Seven Samurai/Three Amigos.
>juvenile
Literally a kids movie, you stupid homosexual
Pixar had a great run form 1995 to 2010. They were a kino factory.
inside out remains their best movie and it's post 2010
They've been hit or miss since 2010, but Inside Out is really good for sure. But for every Inside out we get A Good Dinsaur.
Soul is unironically fricking soulless, that movie has no creativity at all. “Lol what if the souls are alive or something” it’s like the same plot as the emoji movie and then it randomly turns into a body swap movie and one character is a black guy so it’s just creepy. My favorite part was when he died at the beginning, that was niece and nephews favorite part too. They thought the movie was boring as hell.
last Pixar film before Disney bought them in january 2006 (Cars premiered in june)
This is the best Pixar movie. Second one is good too. /thread.
>the Ebert & Roeper Cars review where it ends with Ebert asking how the cars have sex
I consider Cars and Cars 3 10/10 movies.
Wall-E was the last of the Pixar run, Cars 3 was the dead cat bounce.
Not really. There's not much memorable or unique about it. And I don't really understand what the point of the final race was. Lightning could have just won the race then went back to help the other car finish. I get that 'winning isn't everything' but he had already won. Is he just not supposed to care about his career anymore? Is competition bad? Him not caring is one thing, but everyone from the town showed up to help him win. Why let their efforts go to waste?
And that doesn't even go into how flawed the premise of the movie is. He's basically stockholm syndromed into befriending the town, with his supposed love interest imprisoning him so he can 'learn his lesson' when the damage he dealt was just a result of waking up scared and confused. It had nothing to do with him being a self-centered butthole. Instead of a protagonist having to own up to his mistakes and become a better person, it's the story of a guy who is unfairly punished for something he didn't mean to do, but it's lucky that he learned something I guess.
The worst part of the whole thing is that there's no reason for them to be cars in the first place. The plot and world aren't affected by it at all. You can't rewrite Toy Story or Finding Nemo to be about people instead, not only would you have to scrap most of the plot but the overall themes of survival in a harsh world would be diminished. In Cars, the cars are simply deliberate stand-ins for people. There are no cartoonishly unrealistic characters like Buzz or Dory that wouldn't work in live-action. They're only slight exaggerations of real people. So you're left wondering... what really was the point of this movie? The moral of the film isn't original or interesting, and the story itself is not told in a convincing or unique way. It feels like a bunch of rejected ideas from other Pixar movies cobbled together into a film that bears all the surface trademarks of a Pixar film, but lacks the meaningful core behind it all.
>typing all this senseless rage for a movie for kids about talking cars
>it's a movie about space wizards for children
Did you even watch the fricking movie? Lighting didn’t win the race because he didn’t give a shit about actually winning in the end. He wanted to be sponsored by Chad dynoco and not beta chick-hicks. He didn’t win the race because he wanted to help out with his sponsorship, and It would make chick hicks look like an butthole by winning just to float and NOT helping the broken down car. Imagine being this mad and making up random bullshit to justify your shit opinion. He threw the race to show dynoco that helping others is more important than winning, a classic kids concept. You moron.
I know that's the concept, I'm saying it's a stupid concept. Collisions like that are part of the risk of racing. You can't expect every race to come to a halt every time there's an accident. And teaching children to always show sportsmanship at the cost of victory is a terrible moral. In real life the one who crosses the finish line first is the victor, and nobody cares if the losers were nice people who helped others or not. That in itself could have worked as a moral, to have Lightning abandoned the fame and pursue something more meaningful. Instead he eats his cake and has it too, with the whole world on his side as if he had won. It's dishonest to say that winning doesn't matter while making sure that the main character still enjoys all the benefits of winning.
My man, you’re going to deep. Helping people is good. Winning without being nice bad. They’re cars. Shut the frick up.
>was about the first rookie in history to win Piston Cup
>The King, a racing legend, was going to retire after that race yet has that accident before finish line
>McQueen remembers how Doc, also a racing legend back then, had his carrer end without dignity after his accident, so he gives up on Piston Cup to help King cross finish line so he avoids that fate
it's a touching scene
Literally this. That other Anon is a moron who’s never even seen the film
>The worst part of the whole thing is that there's no reason for them to be cars in the first place.
agreed. there is no thematic or narrative significance to the fact that they are cars. this is the films fundamental problem
it was better than any other CG film that year
"He did WHAT in his cup?" remains my favorite joke in a Pixar movie.
The word "piston" sets off this joke in my head without fail.
The first Cars movie is comfy as frick and I don't care what cynical millennials say. It's honestly the most rewatchable movie I can think of.
the fact ww2 happened in the cars universe would make for an infinitely more interesting movie than the one we got but whatever
>ww2 happened in the cars universe
lel wut?
In Planes one of the characters is a Corsair fighter plane who's entire squad was shot down in the Pacific. Thus WW2 100% happened.
shit, thats kinda dark
Also the twin towers arent in the New York skyline which implies that in the Cars/Planes universe on September 11 2001 that multiple Islamic terrorist cars highjacked planes and flew them into the towers.
i guess we can also assume that Chevy CIA assassinated Ford F150 Kennedy?
it's really fricked up when you think about it, were the planes extremists? or if you drive inside a living plane could you just hijack their bodies?
what kind of cars would the concentrated israelites be?
The Cadillac or Royal.

This but i still want good internet so i can epicly game
shit
Just like Cars 2
This might just be the biggest heap of shit ever put out by the studio
>racing celebrity whose life revolves around fame, trophies, fans and sponsors finds himself doing community service in a small town on Route 66, whose quirky residents help him discover there's more to life, including real friendships and love
it's a compelling story
It would be a famous live action western with a few Black person jokes thrown in back in the day. Like one of the cars would be a nanny or some shit
what type of car would Mammy be?
>and remember, don't drive like my brother
>and dont drive like my brother!
i miss them so much, bros
If you don't get the original Cars, then you weren't the target audience. Cars resonated because it was a story for the other 50% of America.
The reason they're cars is because NASCAR and stock car racing as a whole was at its peak in rural America in '06. NASCAR was a MASSIVE sport at the time, and Cars was a reflection of that.
Look at the crowd for a race in the middle of bum frick nowhere South Carolina (miss Kahne).
They threw in all the NASCAR references, from having DW in the movie giving the ol BOOGITY BOOGITY BOOGITY, to featuring cameos from Petty and Jr. These are people the Cinemaphile/classic internet nerd audience might not care about, but to the other half of the country it was a big deal.
Brad Paisley and Rascal Flatts being on the soundtrack was another one of those things that half the country didn't get. These are big names in rural/small town America, and the covers/original songs were good.
The plot was also designed to resonate more with small town America vs the NY or Chicago metro area. I know what its like to watch a continuous downward spiral of a small town, its sad. Knowing things were better in the past, watching it all fade away. Half the country just didn't get it.
This is also why every attempt at a sequel sucks. They tried making Cars for everyone.
Cars 2:
>Writers obviously don't know the reason the cars exist is because of NASCAR, so they just do a B movie bond plot with cars for no reason.
Cars 3:
>Writers understand the cars come from motorsport, and kind of connect the dots to small town USA (North Wilkesboro reference), but Lightning learns nothing useful from these people and ends up getting replaced by a latino woman car.
>NASCAR was a MASSIVE sport at the time, and Cars was a reflection of that.
yeah, you know it was weird growing up in indiana back in the day. nascar was fine, but the indy 500 was way more popular obviously. never got the fun of nascar, indy was faster and the cars were international and look sweet
500 will always be the hottest shit in Indiana, its such a big event for that area.
I could go on forever about regional racing series (Modifieds in the North East, Sprint Cars/Indycar in the Midwest, Late Models/Stock Cars in the South), but its probably the wrong board for it.
Have some Brad Paisley Cars soundtrack kino:
based indianabro, I live there too but have never been to the 500
This is so true about the “other 50%” statement. Didn’t even factor in how big NASCAR really was in 06. Based post and based dubs.
The people who used to watch NASCAR all migrated to Dirt. NASCAR, funny enough, pulled a Cars 2 trying to make it for everyone and killed the sport on a nationwide level. The drivers on dirt are local/grassroots, and the prize money is massive atm ($10,000 minimum for WoO events).
It would be suck a cool setting for a movie/tv show but Globohomosexual doesn't care for the other 50% of America.
PSA: GO WATCH A RACE AT YOUR LOCAL TRACK THIS SUMMER. Support the local guys and watch some kino at the same time. Nothing like watching in person, people are nice too.
its one of those movies that is kino twice
once as an 11 year old, haha car go vroom vroom
then as an adult, NASCAR, old america, life on the road, motorsport legends
> resonate more with small town America vs the NY or Chicago metro area. I know what its like to watch a continuous downward spiral
>Knowing things were better in the past, watching it all fade away
Detroit? St. Louis? Philadelphia? Cleveland? NYC in the 70s/80s? South Side of Chicago?
>it is such a honor to be your agent that it almost hurts to take ten percent of your winnings and merchandising and ancillary rights in perpetuity
>you're everywhere, baby. Radio, TV, the papers! You can't buy this kind of publicity! What do you need me for?! That's just a figure of speech by the way, you signed a contract. Where are you?! I can't even find you on my GPS
McQueen's agent was great. Shame we never see him
Unsubtle, and I don't usually like James Taylor, but I've get more depressed watching this scene as I've gotten older. Bit of a sap, I guess.
Pride is not a sin. Excessive pride may be but pride is not. You should be proud of who you are. Be proud of what you’ve become and who you worked to be. Movie makes you feel bad for having talent and skill. Movie is a 5/10

man, if they ever decide to do an R rated movie
I think cars 3 is better, there, I said it.
I thought people considered Cars 3 the best one?
We, as people, do assign personalities to cars based on how they look and what they're capable of doing. That makes the concept work for me, you don't have to worry about it.
