Original Movie: Cars
Fun story, back in 2000, i was working at a small restaurant on Rt 66 when a couple guys came in. It was in the early afternoon after lunch and we weren't busy at all, so we all got to talking, and they said that they were writing an animated movie about Rt 66 for Pixar. We talked for a couple hours the whole time they were scribbling notes and things. Well, fast forward a few years and sure enough, the movie Cars comes out, and not only did several of the things we chatted about end up in the movie, but a friend of mine got a letter from them telling her how grateful they were, and letting her know that they used her as the inspiration for Sally. To this day she will never shut up about it lol
What things were in the movie?
cap
That's so wholesome.
@@KaizueProd my man went straight to disbelief 😅😂
That's pretty cool
Hearing Vicky say,”I really thought Doc was going to be a secret race car”,gave me a laugh.
Had me rolling😂
Same! She caught that fast!😂
Me: 👀 😬
If only she Knew..
"Is he racist? Is he being car racist?" Perfect way to start the video. xDDDD
And the fact that it's sort of a pun is also great
Carcist
he wasn't racist he was "racerist"
The King was actually voiced by retired NASCAR driver Richard Petty. Whose racing nickname was in fact “The King”. He was my mom’s favorite driver. Darrell Cartrip was voiced by another retired driver, Darrel Waltrip. His catchphrase was “Boogity, boogity, boogity! Let’s go racing boys!” His brother Michael was also a driver for many years. The car Junior was voiced by semi-retired driver Dale Earnhardt Jr. Chick loosely resembles his father, Dale Sr. There were several NASCAR cameos in this movie.
PS Mater being able to drive backwards like he can was inspired by a real person. His name was Dean Walker and he had the ability to turn his feet around backwards.
That's really cool.
I really badly want to meet Richard Petty some day
My dad actually met Richard Petty at an airport when he was a child. Little did he know that his youngest child would end up adoring a movie he starred in.
@@TheMNrailfan227 That would be AMAZING!
Richard Petty has 200 wins in NASCAR, to put that in perspective the next closest competitor is David Pearson at 105 wins and the next is Jeff Gordon at 93 wins. Darrell Waltrip has 84 wins, Dale Sr. has 76, Dale Jr has 26 wins. But individual wins is not everything in NASCAR, Richard may have 200 wins but has only 7 Championships, where as Dale Sr has only 76 wins, but also has 7 Championships.
I grew up in a family that loved racing, I've met Jeff Gordon, Adam Petty, Richard Petty, Kyle Petty, John Andretti, Buckshot Jones and some other racers from other types of racing. And in my experience Jeff Gordon was very much like Lightening McQueen (it was also earlier in his career and he was "Wonder Boy" as nicknamed by Dale Sr.) and Richard Petty was very much as he is in the movie, wiser and more aware of all that goes into it. I was only like 12 years old when I met him, but he gave me a few moments of his time and asked me what I liked about racing and it was just super cool.
Fun Fact; In a blink, and you'l miss it moment during the first race, you might notice that a white car (number 84) sports an Apple logo (Steve Jobs was an integral part of Pixar, and the Macintosh was introduced in 1984)
15:34 “Or are they, like, immortal?”
Cars 2:
The death toll in that movie..... Seriously why the hell is that movie rated G?!?!?!?
I watched it again and you know what? I wonder the same thing@@mooseman3027
@@mooseman3027
They’re not human so no risk of blood or squishy human organs/pain.
the best joke in this movie is when the two imports flash lightning mcqueen with their headlights... everyone misses it...
Those are Mazda MX-5's or Miata's.. their names are a hint.
@@KayoMichielsyeah it looks like 1991 Model
@@KayoMichielsMia and Tia
I explained this gag to my now ex wife and she said I was full of garbage and a perv. She did not believe me.
But she go bye bye
@@michaelschroeck2254 yeah, that area has never been called "headlights" before. Flashing headlights... some people are so dense.
36:23 Fun fact: Ferrari actually voiced by Michael Schumacher, legendary racer and 7-time F1 champion
Probably no one cares or knows but ’The King’ was voiced by Schumacher’s biggest rival, Mika Häkkinen, in the Finnish version. Mika’s voice was so badass in that role. He did great job! Always liked The King because of him.
Don’t get me wrong. I know why he’s named the King. I do respect Petty a lot! I like NASCAR because of this movie
I always loved the scene where Lightning says it is just a cup, that ending always gets me.
What is a symbol next to actual human connections?
4:47 If there is an accident and the track can be cleared relatively quickly, a safety car or "Pacecar" as they call it in NASCAR comes out. When this car comes out, cars cannot overtake and must always be behind the slow-moving pacecar to give time for the track to be cleared. Although in crashes like these it is more likely that they will stop the race completely until the track is clear.
One thing about old school animation is that it is for both kids and adults. There is also adult humor in them too! Pixar also does really deep dives into the theme of their stories. Case in point, there are car people, like Jay Leno, who has an amazing car collection. Several of the characters are also voiced by real racing drivers. If you're a gearhead, race fan, or car person, there is so much to this! Oh, and I LOVED when you said 'I bet Doc is a secret racecar!' Perfect! Yeah, I have yet to be disappointed with anything Pixar has made!
6:18 The flashed him, giggity 😂
Down, Quagmire.
Cars was the first movie I remember. I remember singing Life is a Highway out in the hallways in elementary school. No shame in it. Goated movie.
@@ayanbasu11 I always think of this movie when I hear that song
In defense of the Cars logic argument and how it works, this is a universe where:
* Toys come to life with no explanation
* Bugs have their own utopia
* Monsters portal jump/time travel to collect screams to power their world
* Fish can swim all across the ocean and survive, have real estate, have short-term memory loss, male clown fish don’t turn female after their wives die, and fish can apparently drive trucks
* Superheroes have powers with no explanation on where they got them and how they are able to pass them on to their offsprings
* Rats know how to cook without spreading diseases
* Humans have polluted Earth causing them to leave and be brainwashed by artificial intelligence (that’s likely to happen)
* An old man is able to lift his house off the ground with balloons which is impossible in every way, they never explain the process and how he set it all up in one night, and that overall creates such a big plot hole in the movie itself because he somehow has the money to pull off a stunt like that so he would’ve had enough money to go to Paradise Falls, and regardless he doesn’t have enough balloons to lift his house anyway
* There’s magic and spells in Scotland
* The voices in your head are apparently their own sentient beings
* Humans are living during the age of the dinosaurs which never happened
* A boy enters the world of the dead by playing a guitar
* Technology exists in a medieval, fantasy world
* The idea behind your personality is through mentoring from a past soul, your soul can transfer into animals, you can have a pulse when you’re dead apparently, and the very first souls never got mentoring
* Sea monsters can turn into humans with no explanation
* A girl turns into a panda due to a family curse
* Traveling at light speed can result in two different timelines
* The four elements of Earth have their own government, economy, and civilization
All of this, but you need an explanation on talking cars?
Wich is the 2 timelines one?
I love how the description of "Up" is so much bigger then the rest of the others (btw appearently it could be possible to make a house fly, but it would need like 100 times more then he uses or something like that)
@@serknet3042 I believe they are talking lightyear with the time travel
What’s the ‘technology exists in a medieval, fantasy world’ one? I can identify almost everything listed-even several movies I haven’t seen and knew absolutely nothing about until reading this (Soul, Elementals, Lightyear)-but that one’s eluding me. I’m guessing either that or the “humans living with dinosaurs” thing is Moana, but I have no real idea; I haven’t seen that either. (Much as I still love and respect Pixar, I’ve grown extremely weary of Disney, and tend to not even be interested in watching reactions to most of their more recent works-even with Pixar. Nobody asked, but what the hell.)
All superheroes were born after humans started working on nuclear warfare, so let's guess it's related.
This is the last movie for Paul Newman, he did a great job as Doc Hudson
Rest in peace, Paul Newman and George Carlin.
Recently found out Newman legit RACED NISSANs!
George Carlin voiced Filmore, Cheech Marin voice Ramone
Also Katherine Helmond and Joe Ranft. 😔 You are all missed dearly and will be remembered forever.
I understand that Joe Ranft animated the fire truck and was intended to voice him. The firetruck was left mute after Ranft passed.
Here in Germany the dubbing voice for Lightning McQueen in "Cars" is Daniel Brühl.
Really? The guy who played Niki Lauda 🤯 thats awesome!!!!
@@tomaslongoria2449 And Niki Lauda was the dubbing voice for "The King" in "Cars".
@@martinbraun1211 no way thats awesome 🤯🥺♥️♥️
Never heard of em

Never thought of it before, but they hid an adult joke in the beginning. When Lightning meets his groupies they "flashed him their headlights". Can't believe I've never caught it earlier.
0:02 Yes, he's a race car.
Mator is that one uncle that always goofy and the life of any party 🎉
And dimwitted
My god! 2 more years and this movie will be 20 YEARS OLD! Where does time go?!?!?!? I ABSOLUTELY ADORED THIS MOVIE. I watched it like 50 different times, had Cars toys and other things went to see both sequels and loved them just as much! The soundtrack for this movie as fantastic as Toy Story and other ones (it's even produced by the same singer, Randy Newman). Eventually I learned that people hate this movie (which angered me a bit since I adored it). Seriously, this movie gets so much that sometimes I feel like I'm slowly going down into that. IT SUCKS!!!! They don't know what they're missing out with this movie though. This movie has such a good message to it to appreciate the finer things in life and not just focus on the small, five second fames, otherwise, as you said, life's just gonna drive right by ya! Also to accept yourself.
This DVD was stuck in my player, so it's the only movie I watched for 4 months. 😂
Riiiight!!!😉
😶😮😊😁😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
The town and surrounding land is basically full of homages to actual Route 66 landmarks. This movie works on multiple levels. I saw it at a late night screening with friends in 2006, and although I haven't watched it again fully in years, it's still one of my favorite animated movies overall.
This movie is such a comfort for me, it nails the small town americana perfectly and tells such a fantastic humbling story. The 2nd movie is a massive divergence, but still a fun watch, but jeez just wait till you get to the third, tis peak
girl you missed the joke his groupies flashed their headlights at lightning get the joke
Larry the Cable Guy-Yes, was busy as an actor 2006-2014, but made a ton of money on Jeff Foxworthy's Blue Collar tours (2003-06). One quote from Jeff at the time, seeing that Larry has bought a toy that he is playing with "He makes enough money to buy the entire store and he buys a toy instead." So, since 2014, "Larry" (actual name Daniel Whitney) has made money as a voice talent, writer, producer and the occasional guest spot.
A wise policy
This movie came out when I was 13. The scene with the song Life is a Highway stuck with me so much that, along with the movie Smokey and the Bandit (I recommend watching it), it inspired me to eventually become a truck driver. I'm now in my 7th year of doing it and approaching the million mile mark. Having lived on the highways of the US really adds a depth to this movie for me. I've been through the towns like Radiator Springs and seen the sadness. I've driven down little winding two lane highways through Monument Valley. This movie really captures it so well.
And as a car person the level of detail in this movie isn't appreciated enough by many.
I always find it funny how a lot of reactors don’t acknowledge how the Twins literally flashed Lightning. In both ways of the word.
fr, the way he looked and said "ohh i love being me" with that smile too lmao
Cars is one of those movies that are so precious to us that it didn't need a sequel.
But it did get one of the best sequels ever
Cars 2 is........different but still entertaining. I do like Cars 3 though as it gets back to racing and McQueen's story arc. That being said some people like Cars 2 the best just because of the spy movie storyline.
@@ronweber1402Definitely. I understand its criticisms, especially with Mater, but it's so far from the original that it's just so entertaining.
@@jme6036i mean, as a sequel doesn't work well.
Now as a Spin off it is incredibly great
@@ronweber1402 Though a lot of people (except MrEnter) think it's the worst out of the franchise. However, everyone's got their own opinion.
Back then, Pixar was "on a roll" with their family movies.
I still tear up when Lightning brakes at the finish line. Every dang time.
"Is he being racist" is actually a great pun.
I've seen "Professional racist🏁" as a t-shirt design and I like it 😅
They survive VKunia. They make a cameo in the next movie and you see Chrysler has a lot of maps on him.
28:22 I once counted the seconds it took for Mater to finally realize that he was talking to McQueen... 7 seconds after he stopped talking!
and yes, Pixar also made a movie about Planes. at first they didn't want it in the same universe as Cars, but they eventually made it so, about a crop duster who wanted to race, but was afraid of heights... WHAT???
Well yeah, crop dusters never flew high in the sky.. they only flew low to the ground to spray whatever they had to spray at that given moment.
Planes was clearly set in the Cars universe (including a blink-and-you'll-miss-it cameo of Lightning McQueen), but it was not made by Pixar, but Disneytoon Studios. The studio mostly made direct-to-video films with lower budgets, though a few, like Planes, had theatrical releases. It was shut down in 2018.
*Those road moments were a powerful reminder of the importance of road safety.*
Probably my favorite thing about this entire franchise is that someone at Disney actually confirmed this is set in a timeline where Cars, after gaining sentience, murdered the entire human race. It goes a bit deeper too, like, apparently, each car's personality is based on the last person who drove it.
Rest In Peace

The animated 'bugs' you see when Lightning and Sally stop outside the old hotel are actually mini Volkswagen Beetles, a car made by Volkswagen from 1938 until 2003. Designed as a cheap family car, they were very popular and easy to maintain and run, they were really a thing during the 1960s. Because they were called Beetles, they gained the nickname "Bugs", hence why the flying "bugs" are VW Beetles. There was even a movie series in the 60's/70's called "The Love Bug" about a sentient VW Beetle, who takes part in races.
Doc's story is completely true of the real Twin H Hudson Hornet. Except the Hornet was not banned out of malice. NASCAR rules required race cars be actual stock cars, with a whole lot of modifications, but the base car had to actually sell in a certain volume from dealers. Hudson had been bought out but the new owners kept the name active and kept building the cars, and they sold well. But, the styling was getting dated after a few years, sales declined, and the Hudson name was retired. That's why the door was CV losed to the Hornet after only a few years.
They captured the vibe of the real racing and NASCAR culture brilliantly. The more you know about racing, the more you can get out of it.
I loved that he had to beat the pace car out to get his lap back. We that that was a big plot point.
Back when the world was actually good , with no "much" hidden propaganda. Really ICONIC CHILDHOOD MEMORIES 😂❤. Most of the car peeps might have been inspired from this exact movie .Showed a lot of emotions Rollercoaster thoughout . Loved your reaction as always ❤😂
Mator is the real freind we all need .
KA CHOW
Guido saying PITSTOP IS SO BADASS .
The "Hudson Hornet" was a famous, extremely successful NASCAR vehicle (the "Fabulous Hudson Hornet" was a real race car). It's road models were some of the fastest of the time, due to an ingenious chassis design that allowed for very low center of gravity (helps with handling.. so yeah, easy to control and drive, and corners well).
The King was based on, like, late 60's NASCAR models with experimental aerodynamics, notably the "Dodge Charger Daytona" and the "Plymouth Superbird" (Plymouth had some good car names, like one called the "Road Runner", complete with the cartoon version of the bird being used as a logo. Those had some road models released, and they actually looked like that, they look insane (The spoiler was that tall so that it was possible to see out the back window).
"This is great animation, especially for 2006." This was the same year we got Davy Jones in Dead Man's Chest. It may be the best year ever for CGI.
Cars 1 is genuinely a pretty good film, while Cars 2 feels more like a Spin Off Parody Spoof than an actual Sequel. Cars 3 should've been Cars 2
Cars 2 is still a fun movie, it’s just different.
Cars was the first movie I've ever seen in theatres and that opening scene with the car engine is something I'll never forget
Yeah I remember how awesome the deep growl of his engine was when I was a teen.
If you’re really curious about the logic of sentient cars, there’s a whole rabbit hole you can go down called the Pixar Theory.
It basically says that all of the Pixar movies exist in the same timeline. The magic in Brave leads to sentient toys and robots, which leads to all sorts of other things
Finally u watched Cars, this is the best Pixar movie and my whole childhood, thanks for watching this!
This was so fun. This movie broke my expectations and seeing the growth of certain character.I can't for you to see one of the sequels Cobra Kars.
You have to quit trying to apply logic to animated movies and just go with it, man.
You are right about animated movies having something for everyone, kids, adults, kids living in an adult body, everyone. I think animated movies are my favourite form of entertainment because they can go anywhere, do anything and can apply some real creativity in telling a story in ways that aren't possible or at least very difficult with live action.
I know right, It's just an animated movie
"Just go with it,man"-she is a woman that's why 😂
I think that, what actually make people question cars so much, is probably because there is no humans differently for like every other film (and also because in logic the others have a bit more of sense, but I also think is a bit stupid to try to aply those logics to all animated movies, is just fun of how this is one of the most exceptions for everyone lol)
*woman
I first saw this movie while recovering from surgery in 2006 while in a pharmaceutical haze. I loved it then while basically stoned and watched it many times since sober. It has never lost it's luster for me in the 18 years since. Glad you liked it.
I remember when I saw this in the theater when I was 6 years old! When Mater was waking up, some kid in the audience said, "Wake up, Mater!" It was hilarious and the theater was loud! I had a great cinematic experience with this film!
Ah so you're 23/24 as well, eh? I also watched this when I was 6 years old in theaters. We got to be toddlers and kids are the right time. 2000s won't ever come back.
@@catsandalcohol99 I was only 8 months old when I watched this movie. I was so young yet so joyful about it.
Carracist, 😂 lol good one Vkunia. Also Lightning is not carracist, it’s just that he acts all proud and entitled through this journey towards the piston cup but then when he came to Radiator Springs, he changed into a humbled man at the end.
Lightning is a constant reminder to Doc of the pain and suffering he endured a long time ago. Not really a fair reason to hate him though.
I'm pretty sure cow tipping is one of those things that everyone says they did but no one actually did.
In the early days, there werent freeways. Mist cars only had a 2 speed transmission and could not do more than 50mph.
As cars became more common, they connected all the main roads from town to town, so a drive acrossed the country usually involved driving straight down the small town main steeets, with lower in town speed limits and more stops.
In the 1950's, after world war 2, we saw the "Autobahn", the german freeway system. It was designed to quickly roll out military equipment, and double as runways if needed.
After millions of veterans returned from ww2, a bunch of business shut down during the war, and there were now millions of out of work veterans. The freeway interstate project was sort of a get back to work project to help veterans, many who left without ant schooling or appreciable life skills.
As they put in freeways, truck stops and other businesses moved to the new freeways and on ramps, and many small towns were basically shut down and forgotten.
The Hudson hornet domminated NASCAR in the early 50's. This was right as the i-6 engine was going away and v-8's were starting to take over. Improvements in car design also required higher speed racetracks, many of which were still dirt or poorly paved. Many race tracks were "brick roads".
The racetracks were revamped and retro fitted with paved roads, guard rails, and banked turns to allow higher speeds. The older i-6 engines were no longer viable, and those cars were abandoned.
this is another one of those animated trilogies that everyone should watch -- hope you like 2 and 3 just as much!
12:51 her snort was so cute 😂⚡️
This movie just makes you want to hop in the car for a quick road trip 😌
I saw this movie in theaters when it first came out and thoroughly enjoyed it! Larry the Cable Guy is originally from the same state I am (Nebraska), but went to college in Alabama and adopted a rural Deep South accent as part of his act. The character of "The King" was voiced by Richard Petty, a famous race car driver from the 1970s and looks like the race car that driver used to drive in races.
That last race hits even harder in german, where the king is voiced by Niki Lauda (an actual F1 legend) and Lighting is voiced by Daniel Brühl who would play Lauda in the movie Rush 7 years later.
"How doe she know when he doesn't have backview mirrors?"
Matter said it, he doesn't need to know where he's going, just to know where he's been. And every track is just a loop, so nothing hard and he knows them well.
Route 66 used to be a TV series in 1960 about a rich kid who had adventures driving his Corvette on Route 66. The paint scheme used on Lightning later on was similar to the early Corvettes. They were, in my opinion, the most beautiful Corvettes ever made.
Yes, there is a Planes movie.
And it's not just metaphorical - there are lots of towns along Rt 66 that kind of thing happened to when the Interstate system was created. It's only fairly recently that it's become a "thing" to travel 66 and other secondary roads again instead of the Interstates.
To quote Days of Thunder
"No, no, he didn't slam you, he didn't bump you, he didn't nudge you... he *rubbed* you. And rubbin, son, is racin'."
6:19 they flashed their 2 roundies🤣🤣
As someone who grew up around NASCAR and racing, it was so cool seeing all the various racing world cameos in this movie and the other movies as well (boogity boogity boogity!)
Let's go racing, boys!
Cars was a childhood favorite of mine, but I drifted away from it as an adult. Watching this video reminded me it had so many more good qualities than I remembered. Not Pixar's best work, but definitely has some redeeming qualities.
Almost 3 decades ago I decided to drive a large stretch of what remains of 66 just for the experience. Was one of the best vacations I ever had because I was in no hurry and had no real pressure to get anywhere in particular. Started in eastern Arizona and followed it all the way into Illinois before setting off for a dive into the south.
Larry the Cable Guy was a character, his actual name is Daniel Lawrence Whitney. He stopped playing the character years ago, but I think he is retired now and just does voiceovers for the Cars spinoffs and the upcoming Cars land in Disney World.
As a graphic designer, I love this movie just for the attention to detail in EVERYTHING in this movie and car references everywhere. Just look at the surrounding mountains in the town, they are all the backs of old cars and old emblems.
24:05 undisputed one of the best jokes in the movie that used to go so overlooked when youtube reactors initially started reacting to this movie
I can't believe V was so concerned about the end credit scene she didn't notice the whole revitalisation of Radiator Springs that was playing out and went on through the credits, including the Bugs Life, Monsters Inc. and Toys cameo's
Everybody thinks they had to "fix" the traffic light, but it was never broken! In smaller towns that normally don't have enough traffic to really justify using it, they will change it to just a flashing yellow and it is basically treated as a 4 way stop sign instead...unless there are signs pointing out otherwise, like sometimes it's just 2 ways stop and the other 2 yield.
Chick is absolutely aerodynamic because his shape is what race cars used to look like back several years ago in like the 60s. So, yes, he is a race car.
I remember the movies, the games, coloring books and the toy cars! Cars will always be my favorite Disney films no matter how ridiculous they are.
32:23 - Yes. There are two films: "Planes 1" and "Planes 2: Fire & Rescue". 👍
14:18 That's actually a good point that I hadn't thought of. During the court hearing, it sounded like Sally had been wanting to fix up the road well before Lightning ever showed up. And since she's mainly debating with Doc on the topic, it makes it sound like Doc had been denying her request. If he's the one ignoring Sally's request, he is at least a small part of the reason behind the declining business.
Awesome reaction of my favorite Cars movie!!!!!😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
Larry the Cable Guy was hugely popular, because he used a well-known formula for comedy. He's an intelligent man who plays a lovable moron with a heart of gold.
Jim Varney did the same thing as Ernest P. Worrell, Matt LeBlanc did it as Joey Tribbiani, and Chris Farley did it in everything he did.
2006, back then, this movie is really really fun to watch. I even waiting for the sequel eventhough I didn't even know theres gonna be one, but there is. Now watching it as adult, and knowing there is so much reference to the real world racing scene and cameos from so many racer, and commentator, this is one of the best and creative movies for me. Ever.
I grew up with cars. Watched it alot as a kid
Growing up in a Route 66 town, this movie certainly resonates. Our town was lucky that the Interstate stayed close wnough to still draw visitors but hundreds of other towns were not so lucky and died when the traffic disappeared.
In how I could scan McQueen's personality I'd say he's proud of his racing, his looks, & full with pride.
Hearing V talk about 2006 graphics like it was 1950s vacuum tubes, and 12px by 12px screens, graphics peaked around this time, now it's just up to the skill level of the artist

Days Of Thunder
Greatest Pitstop in History
1. Chick Hicks is the kind of villain that is both broken and pure evil if you ask me. He keeps losing in races so he feels like a nobody. And, McQueen didn’t help make it better at all. McQueen kept taunting Chick as well. That’s the part where he’s broken. He’s also just as arrogant as McQueen was and will do anything just to win and receive the fame and glory all for himself, even if it means severely damaging anyone like Mr. The King. That’s the part where he’s pure evil.
2. Those two minivans do show up as cameos in only one scene in the second film.
3. Maybe Chick was using his ID as Thunder in an intentionally positive way so McQueen would never taunt him as Thunder again.
4. I really thought Rascal Flatts actually did the original version of Life Is A Highway.
5. I always wondered myself as to why McQueen would just straight up let Chick win in the first place, no joke intended. Apparently, I realized he chose to lose cuz of what Doc said bout the trophies just being empty ass cups. They’re just materialistic objects. McQueen does win four more races later on, and with it, four piston cups, more than Doc Hudson.
6. I realized something bout Doc sometime recently ago. Doc Hudson was actually a play on words for Rock Hudson, whoever he was.
7. Doc Hudson won’t be in the second film cuz he died of cancer. Possibly lung cancer. He will be in the third film though but as cameos.
8. You even see in the third film exactly how Doc made that wreck in 1954.
9. The minute I heard Ramon making fun of McQueen for announcing how Doc used to be a famous racecar, I realized it was Banzai. And, I was a kid back then.
10. If you know this guy, Isaac Carlson, he gives out theories including one being how the living cars and their world came to being.
11. Dinoco was actually that company that you saw in Toy Story. That was, if you ever saw Toy Story.
12. Chick knocks over cars all the damn time, hence, the apparent reason as to why his number is 86. He 86es cars including McQueen and The King.
13. I always keep thinking that McQueen just automatically drove away quickly not by will as soon as Mater released him from the parking boot. I really don’t know if he willfully drove away from Radiator Springs though.
14. It’s actually natural for you to ponder how shit worked with those cars. Don’t go blaming yourself. Blame the technical logic you grew up knowing.
15. That blimp had the name Lightyear on it as did McQueen’s tires as a nodoff to Buzz Lightyear.
16. Cars 2 will have Alfred Pennyworth in it as well as Gusteau’s Restaurant just in case you’d love to know a couple more things bout the future of Cars.
17. There’s gonna be a Cars 4 coming next year.
18. Chick will also definitely be in the third film rubbing his trophy in McQueen’s face meaning he still only gives a shit bout winning. But, then again, who wouldn’t give a shit bout winning?
19. Between Cars and Night At The Museum, Idk which one was the very first film where I ever saw Owen Wilson. It was the first film I ever Paul Newman. I remember seeing another movie with him afterwards but it was an old timey movie and I just can’t place the name. Black and white color is all I remember there.
24:54 I’ve noticed you seem to be impressed that the animation is from 2006, as if it was archaic, but that was when animation started to be really good. The studios didn’t try to save a buck everywhere so they put work into the animation. It’s why the last 6 or so years have looked so bad (at least with live action+CGI)
Cars is absolutely peak Pixar
i forgot how stacked this cast was....Bonnie Hunt - Sally, Larry the Cable Guy - Mater, Cheech Marin - Ramone, Tony Shalhoub - Luigi, George Carlin - Fillmore, John Ratzenberger - Mack, Michael Keaton - Chick Hicks, Richard Petty (actual nascar racer) - The King, Bob Costas - Bob Cutlass, Jeremy Piven - Harv and lots more (lots of actual racecar drivers were in this too)
Talking about "attention to detail", if you look closely at the background in some shots, some of the the hills and mesas resemble cars. one of the best overall views is at 25:37 . look at the big vehicle hood to the left of center.
In at least one scene the fins of a Cadillac can be easily be seen sticking up out of the ground similar to Cadillac Ranch in Amarillo Texas.
The flies are indeed cars. They are modeled after the Volkswagen Beetle commonly referred to as the Bug.
You can make a game out of finding the Easter Eggs like these and have a good time.
6:20 Check it out. They flashed him. That's an event that will look _perfectly_ innocent to any _kids_ in the audience.
As with most, that flew (or should I say drove) right over my head as a innocent child. I had NO IDEA that was a nod to fans showing off their you know whats to race car drivers. Very sneaky of you Pixar.
When I first saw this movie I was among the many who saw it as the first Pixar "failure", they'd had a perfect flawless streak and this movie felt like such a huge step backwards for so many. I eventually gave it another shot several years later when I was no longer an idiot teenager and I really appreciated it a lot more. Sadly the second movie never grew on me but I legitimately think the third was the best of the trilogy.
This is a film that was part of my childhood 😍 And today, at 20 years old, I still watch it several times 😍 It's also a film that moves us a lot 🥺
When i was a kid i thought the street racer cars were so gangster, that purple one still gets that feeling honestly
i was obsessed with tuner culture and street racing as a kid (early 2000's was the golden age for that) so when i saw those cars for the first time i was so freaking hype lol
22:12 - Nah, Mater just has mirrors and can see where he is going, unlike Lightning who is a Stock Car which in his case do not have any mirrors. Similar to a Nascar Stock Car, however a Driver can opt for them if the Driver ultimately prefers them, otherwise there's camera systems that handle visual cues. Actually pretty badass.
I used to own a Ford Ranger I bought used with 50,000 miles. I drove it to well over 300,000 miles.
Well the radio developed this glitch where I would be driving, and the volume would shoot way up. All by itself.
Well I would just turn it down of course. But then I began to notice, it only did this during certain songs. Songs about cars.
And the volume always went up whenever that song Life is a Highway came on.
So I stopped turning it down, and let the truck enjoy the song.
Doc Hudson was voiced by Legendary Hollywood Actor Paul Newman from Butch Cassidy and Sundance Kid, he was an amazing race car driver in real life. Bet you that he and Paul Walker are having a blast in the great race track in the sky.
This is my fav pixar movie ever! Anyway awesome reaction:)) its crazy i remember your old channel and now your channel had grown😱
This was Paul Newman's (famous racer and actor) last movie. Very poetic.
Its also a description of what actually happened to Route 66.
Cars 3 is a lot of fun.
Cars 2 is... a movie. It's got some good points, but... yeah.
32:22 "Wasn't there a movie called _'Planes'_ where it was, like, also sentient planes?"
Why, yes. The same canon, as a matter of fact.
Mater foreshadowed the whole thing in that Mater's Tall Tales short. Remember?
