Cars

#1 Post by Hil »

Has anyone else seen this yet? It just came out yesterday and I saw it today. I <3 Pixar, and they've done it again! It's another movie that is just as good, if not better than their other movies! Sure, there were a lot of little kids, but older kids and adults would like it too.

The animation was great. My favorite part was when they went 'tractor tipping'...sort of like cow tipping. (Not much of a spoiler, but making it small anyways)

Any opinions? As you can tell, I loved it.

I haven't seen it, but it is getting very good reviews.

Some guy already predicted it will win Animation of the Year at the Oscars.

I just saw it yesterday. It's not Finding Nemo, but I think it's definitely a must see. Even if you're not a racing fan, the racing scenes are thrilling and exciting. I think I was biting my shirt during those scenes, I was so excited. And the animation is absolutely fantastic. You hardly ever get to see the scenery in Pixar films I realized because it's usually dealing on a small scale or takes place indoors, but now you will be just wowed by everything. Absolutely breath-taking.

And I know some may be worried with names like Owen Wilson and Larry the Cable Guy, but they play their parts so well you forget it's them. Larry threw in a Git-R-Done that you barely notice because you're too into the moment (I wasn't even sure I'd heard it until someone confirmed it for me).

It's not just a must-see. It's a must-see-in-theaters. Pixar put too much into those landscapes and racing scenes for them to be seen on just a small screen <3

And make sure you stay for the extras during the credits. It's well worth it.

Lol I saw that. I love when Pixar references/parodies their own movies. :D

I defiantly plan on seeing it, just probably not in theatres. I'm not one for going to the movies lately, I wish I could go more often, but the couch is a suitable place to watch a movie rather than those two armed death traps at our movie theatre.

It looks hilarous - I love Larry the Cable Guy and I crack up everytime I see the previews to the movie on TV

Excellent movie, though I could have done without the screaming infants and obviously oblivious parents on opening day. Yes, there is a "Git-R-Done," and he also quips something to the effect of "I don't care what anybody says, that's funny right there!"

Excellent movie.

The experience just can't be replicated on a home screen; there is so much detail and sound that television kills part of it.
