As a NASCAR fan for most of my life, I cannot tell you how HYPED the opening to this movie makes me feel. The classic sights, sounds, camera angles, fans, etc. THEY EVEN BROUGHT IN THE ACTUAL NASCAR BOOTH ANNOUNCERS! They made a real love letter to racing here and I can't get enough of it.
As an Formula 1 fan for my entire life it’s much the same for me. When I first watched this film as a kid, I had never watched NASCAR before but it just clicked with my overall love for racing, will forever be one of my favourite ever movies.
@@cojo763 Yeah, still need to see 2 and 3 some day. Shame about the trilogies infamous reputation though. Maybe this movie is like my version of the Minions. Because beyond the first one, the second and third were ok. Never watched any past that but clearly they do insanely well.
There's something about engines that hits home for a man, and as someone who has never been super into cars, even I got shivers every time those engines rev.
Radiator Springs and its backstory is based on real-life history actually. Several little towns along Route 66 got bypassed when the interstate was built (in the 60s if I recall) and lost a lot of business. But many of the small businesses still stayed, somehow making it through, and a lot of them are still there to this day. And from everything I’ve heard, they are some very sweet and wholesome people just like the Radiator Springs crew. ❤
The race doesn't ''pause'' when you're pit stopping. The race just goes on. But nowadays the pitstops only take a few seconds in some forms of racing, like Formula 1, and in other sports like Le mans a pitstop can take minutes because they have to change tyres, refuel and repair some damages. Essentially everyone has to pit at some point, so if you happen to lose some time when pitting, you will regain it when the other teams pit.
A lot of people like to crap on _Cars_ for not explaining it's world very well and being sub standard compared to other Pixar films at the time. I however, love it for it's atmosphere, storytelling, and how it handled McQueen's redemption arc. Also, Mater's not half bad in this one. _Cars 2_ on the otherhand...
4:43 So happy to see the growth Lightning had from the first movie to the last. He had no friends before and then in Cars 3 he jokes around with other racers on and off the track. So wholesome :D
Fun fact: The King is voiced by NASCAR legend, Richard Petty! The King himself is a walking (driving?) reference to the man! Same nickname, same number and everything!
@@osmanyousif7849 And the vehicle that the character is based on was the same make and model as the car that the Petty family would use to go to Mr. Petty's races.

The King's wife is voiced by Richard Petty's real life wife and she picked the kind of car she wanted her character to be, based on the car that she rode with their kids to Petty's races.
I know I'm probably just reading something into nothing, but I saw the whole fixing the road thing as a way to show how rehabilitation is more effective than just straight up arresting him.
One of my favorite pixar movies to this date. I grew up with Cars and vividly remember watching in theaters and just absolutely loving everything about it and being in awe honestly by the visuals, even though it ain't a perfect movie. It holds a dear place in my heart and I love to watch it every year. Also the intro for this movie one of my all time favs, absolutely love the song and the filiming of the first race!
Cars was and still is my fav pixar movie. Sound design, world building, plot, and music? I appreciated them all as a child, as I get older it only makes it more obvious how much attention and passion went into storyboarding this movie.
3:07 it’s whoever can get in and out of the pits the fastest, the race never stops unless there’s a major crash which is when the caution comes outs and the race is put on pause until the damage is figured out
It's actually explained that the reason Lightning has no friends is because has as trust issues. The last time he depended on someone, they sabotaged him before a race, causing him to lose.
2:42 That is 100% ILLEGAL NO BUMP PUSHING NO CRASHES (IF only the car is out of control) NO passing on restart, only whenever green flag is out Allowed: Passing each other Blocking another car Enter the pit road whenever they have to.
The amount of cameos from NASCAR, racing, automotive, and sports celebrities is insane. Bob Costas, Darrell Waltrip, Richard "The King" Petty, Tom and Ray Maglozzi aka "Click and Clack," Jay Leno, etc. Also, the licensing costs Disney had to shell out for the use of actual vehicles... Fun fact: Lightning's agent is voiced by Jeremy Piven as an Easter Egg to Entourage fans. In the international (UK) English version, he's voiced by Top Gear host Jeremy Clarkson.
You know everyone have that movie that they watch when they are feeling down or at the point of life where nothing works out. This is that movie for me. Reminds me to take a break and figure things out.
I watched this movie for the first time like 5 years ago because my baby cousin wanted it on the TV and let me tell you the QUALITY hit me right in the FACE!!
One of the most amazing things about Cars, specifically the backstory of Radiator Springs, is that it's based on real life--Route 66 was once full of thriving towns and businesses, and when the interstate was put together, their traffic was diverted and they lost all their business. There's behind-the-scenes footage of the directors of this movie actually traveling along Route 66 and interviewing the people involved, so this movie feels that much more personal. This movie was integral to my childhood; my autistic ass was beyond obsessed with this movie for most of my childhood. So glad you got to see it, Ange!
3:11 to answer your question, no they don’t stop. But teams often wait for a yellow flag (when cars must slow down to a “caution speed” like during a stage break or if someone crashes) to pit so they have a bit more time without losing too many positions. Putting under green does happen but only when absolutely necessary because it is riskier.
@ANGELINA, 3:08, to answer that question, the race comes to a quick pause when the yellow flag is waved in the air, and the drivers take advantage of this to go into the pit stops for fuel and tires. But some drivers arrive in the pits earlier than others so they get out earlier and reposition themselves behind the car called the pace car. So your pit crew have to be fast and focused to get you in a good position before the race restarts with the green flag waved and the pace car is off the track. That makes it possible to get a good place in the race.
Radiator Springs isn't based on a particular town but several different places along Route 66. The Cadillac Range is based on Cadilla Ranch in Amarillo, Texas, which consists of a row of half-buried, nose down Cadillacs. The Coy Cone Hotel is based on The Wigwam Motels on Route 66, as well as The Cozy Dog Drive-In in Springfield, Illinois (Fillmore was gonna be named Waldmire but since Bob Waldmire is nowadays a vegan, he preferred to not having his name on a character that would end a Happy Meal toy). The Curiosity Shop is based on the Sandhills Curiosity Shop in Erick, Oklahoma. The waterfall outside the town is based on the Havasu Falls in Grand Canyon. Ornmament Valley is based on the Momument Valley, even though it's not near Route 66 but at the border of Arizona and Utah. Finally Ramone's Body Shop was heavily inspired by Tower Station and U-Dropp Inn in Shamrock, Texas. Just like in the movie, when the Iiterstate opened up, the towns along ROute 66 lost their regular visitors which meant many shops and resturants were put out of business.
There’s someone in my town who has an old pick up truck/tow truck that’s brown and he decided to make his tow truck look exactly like Mater. I love it😭😭, he also doesn’t drive it so that he can keep it nice and so people can take pictures with Mater, it’s sooo freaking sweet🫶🏼 Also anytime me and mi familia go on trips, we always take the scenic routes so that way we, (1) we spend more time together (2) we don’t miss out on anything cool or beautiful
There are several different types of racing: 1) Stock Car (NASCAR)-the type of racing seen in this movie. 2) Indy style-a different type of car not seen in this movie, still an oval track. 3) Le Mans style-a figure eight track and three types of cars, indy type cars, stock cars and concept cars. This race can last anywhere from 3 to 24 hours. 4) Demolition derby-don't know if these exist anymore-cars smash into each other and last car moving, wins.
Best movie in 2006 I watched it during the summer of that year when I was three with my brother and I watched it again before I graduated 8th grade forgot that it existed and then during the pandemic, brought back good memories (despite having a sh*tty childhood but there were some good movies and music that got my brother and I liked throughout those times) glad to see somebody else that really liked the pure and good story and entertainment of it.
Funny thing is, after I became a semi driver I understood Mack trying to state federal DOT regulations to Lightning about resting. 😅 stupid I know, but knowing that made me chuckle.
Oklahoma has preserved the most amount of historic route 66 than any other state. Ive driven it...its super pretty, especially around sunrise and sunset.
“Matches the rest of the town” has to be the funniest shit I’ve heard 😂. Most people hate Lightning for that, but I just burst out laughing, like shit he did his job. I just lack sympathy cuz they technically had a deal
watching this film as a child was everything. i absolutely adore this film. one of my favourite parts is definitely the town's transformation- seeing all the neon signs and pretty colours is the best. i'm thankful that i've grown up beside ny father who loves cars - like he'd always watch races and include me and my siblings in his chats - we would go along to car shows and he would provide with information about them. it was nice.
The opening of this movie takes me right back to when I was 5 years old. I thought it was the most awesome thing ever. The music, the racecars, everything. 5-year-old me got the exact same feeling as 16-year-old me watching the final "Avengers assemble" in Endgame.
I was a huge Cars fan back when I was a kid in 2008-2009. I had the diecasts from all three movies (I still have some hanging on my shelves), pajamas, books, and Disney Store toys. I even had a Cars birthday cake.
I'll never NOT feel happy to see Angelina reacting to these classic Pixar movies, watching her laugh, smile, crack up, cringe, etc, especially when she's delighted over a wholesome character like Mater. Kachow! ⚡⚡⚡ Angelina, if you're reading this comment, I want you to know that I love you and your reaction channel and I'll always be happy to see you 😀😀😊😊
This was my movie when I was a kid 😂 I honestly just love Pixar in general, but cars has a nostalgia favorite for me, same with Toy Story lol Also Rest in Peace Paul Newman 🙏🙏
My favorite movie of all time along with Spirit Stallion of the Cimarron! This movie makes me laugh, cry and think non stop. It's my first love. Also McQueen's face gives me life at 6:50. I have seen this movie like 500+ times I'm not even kidding
Now you’ve reacted on the following Pixar movies on your channel: * Toy Story 1-4 * Monster’s Inc. * Finding Nemo * Cars * Finding Dory * Soul * Luca * Turning Red _Coco, Ratatouille, Wall•E,_ and _Up_ were the only Pixar reactions you collaborated with TimotheeReacts.
I can't remember when it was, but there was an archery contest where a similar thing happened in regards to sportmanship. They use a specialized tool for releasing arrows, but for one participant it locked up during his shot, so he lost his chance for one of the arrows. His competitor asked his team what had happened, and when it was his next arrow, he intentionally stepped away to not shoot that arrow, so to play on equal fields.
Personally, I relate to the small town dying kind of thing, because my parents are from a small town, and everyone is getting older there and passing away, and it makes me feel really sad
I loved cars as a child and still do! When the “life is a highway” scene would come on i’d always think of my dad driving down a highway to pick me up from daycare :)
I was addicted to watching this movie when I was a kid. I dont remember this but she said I also listened to the soundtrack ALOT and jammed along to it. Which is weird considering the past 2-3 years I've been so addicted to music from games and movies I've started to actually learn music this year.
4:30 Was this made for the movie? Oh you sweet summer child haha, now I feel old! This movie was amazing tho, definitely one of my favourite Pixar films, and truly made by some really diehard auto fans. The passion and attention to detail they put into it is honestly incredible. And if you're ever at Disneyland, visiting Radiator Springs at sunset is pure magic...
Been a while since you’ve done an animated movie reaction since _Soul_ just 2 months ago. Overall I love this film and while it has become Pixar’s biggest and most lucrative franchise in merchandising and their 2nd to have a franchise after _Toy Story_ it’s a very important and beautiful film and I loved Lightning McQueen’s journey and growth as a character and his relationship he has with the folks from Radiator Springs such as Mater, Doc Hudson and Sally. Hope you get to react to the next Cars films (Cars 2-3) and the other Pixar films that you have yet to react to such as _A Bug’s Life, The Incredibles 1-2, Brave, Monster’s University, Inside Out, The Good Dinosaur, Onward_ and _Lightyear_
This is my favorite movie of all time. Cars 2 isn’t nearly as good but it still underrated, it’s enjoyable. Cars 3 is really good too but I’d watch the alternate ending as well as the actual one
Great reaction! My favorite moments in Cars are Our Town flashback, when McQueen finally learns to be selfless and helped out the Radiator Springs, King finish his last race, and kept his word for Mater. I would really recommend you check out the sequels to Cars as well as its shorts and series. If you want more car racing films, I definitely recommend Speed Racer (2007) and the Herbie film series. 🏎️🚘⚡️❤️💛
The story about the town before the interstate isn't just a story for the film, it's actual US history. The American West is filled with old towns that have "dried up" because they got bypassed by interstates. It's actually rather tragic. Route 66 is a famous example of this: since it went right down main street in many towns, the interstate was built around the towns, so people stopped going there. Now they're just empty shells decaying in the sun.
Respect to McQueen tho, when he lost to doc, even tho he was an asshole, he stuck to the bet and started fixing the road properly, and stayed until it was done.
Cars and Cars 3 are simple movies, but there's a LOT of PASSION behind them. And a lot of people who dog on these movies are failing to see that passion and it just makes me sad honestly. You can see that passion for NASCAR and atmosphere and characters in every frame. Cars 3 is a WONDERFUL underdog story in a different light with Lightning being outclassed vs being a Rookie in the first. And it's great to see how McQueen could have been like, if he hadn't been redeemed by the end of Cars via Jackson Storm. I really think Cars 2 should've just stuck to Lightning, learning how to be a champion, and learning how to be one WITHOUT the help of Doc Hudson, who passed away off screen because his voice actor also passed. It could've been a rather engaging storyline to follow an unsure Lightning after seeing him be so confident as a Rookie. But for what they are, Cars and Cars 3 are certainly not the worst Pixar films as many claim them to be. They're not the cream of the crop, but they don't NEED to be; they're simply charming. And I like them for that.
You rewatched this movie literally WEEKS after me! XD Also, definitely watch Cars 3! I watched it for the first time not too long ago, and it's actually a LOT more mature and heart-felt than I was expecting!
Fun Fact: Some of the characters were voiced by real racers. The King was voiced by Richard Petty. One of the best NASCAR racers of all time! 43 was his number and The King was based off one of the race cars Richard drove: a 1970 Plymouth Superbird!👍👍
I think it should be noted that this movie was accused of ripping off another movie, and you could actually see the similarities: DOC HOLLYWOOD. Definitely should check it out. Also, the actor who voices Sheriff is Micheal Wallis, who was a historian and wrote the book Route 66: The Mother Road. He helped give insight to the people behind Cars on how the concept of the town should feel.
this movie is a love letter to racing there are so many cameos in this movie. imo the best is in the german version, the king is voiced by niki lauda who himself had a horrific accident at the 1976 german gp and suffered life threatening burns
10/10 Exquisite and fun. Visuals steal the show. Pixar again shows us their superior skills in 3D animation and to a lesser extent this time, the storytelling. There is so much attention to detail, that you are left gazing at the screen in awe. The 2 hours races by, and afterwards you are left with the satisfaction of having just seen something quite unique and surreal. It's a kids film of course, so there is little need to point out the predictable story elements - which exist in Cars more so than previous Pixar films such as The Incredibles. Cars is less daring, is safer in its approach. There are no surprising or wild deviations on the fairly straight road the story follows. But nevertheless, it's all very cool stuff, and the story is entertaining enough. Cars is a must see Pixar film - even if the visuals steal the show.
In NASCAR (what the movie is based off of), when someone crashes or there is debris on the track. Race officials throw out the caution (yellow flag). At that point, the field is frozen. No passing is permitted. During the caution, you can pit to get fuel and tires. If you do pit, there’s no guarantee you’ll keep your spot from when the caution was issued. You could gain a position or lose one. When the track is clear of all debris and wrecks, the green flag will be waved and the race is restarted.
3:10 A pit stop is made during the race without interruption. How many places the competitor loses is up to his mechanics. For example, in F1, the rule is that in dry conditions every car must make a pit stop at least once. When you say it like that, it looks like everyone is going back to the same places, but that's not the case. In F1, the so-called undercat and overcat work, where you can either gain or lose time and position on the track by either an earlier or a late pitstop. And all this without interrupting the race. Except for the red flag that is given during major accidents. And even after that, whoever takes the lead faster has a better position at the restart.
As stupid as this may sound, Guido’s legendary pit stop skills gives me chills to this day. That was the ultimate flex on those guys lmao
Best part honestly.
Dudes a god
Bruhhh same
Not stupid. At all
It has that effect on everyone, i watched the movie with my gf once and we stopped watching the movie not too long after that scene😂

Is anybody going to talk about how damn good this movie still looks (visually) to this day ? Absolutely amazing job from Pixar
For 2006 its amazing
Cars was the first animated movie to use raytracing!
Great movie
Radiator Springs and its backstory is based on real-life history actually.

Makes sense that a tow truck would be good at driving in reverse. Absolutely love Mater.
Never thought of it like that, but good point!
Mater is the ultimate sidekick character
The race doesn't ''pause'' when you're pit stopping. The race just goes on. But nowadays the pitstops only take a few seconds in some forms of racing, like Formula 1, and in other sports like Le mans a pitstop can take minutes because they have to change tyres, refuel and repair some damages. Essentially everyone has to pit at some point, so if you happen to lose some time when pitting, you will regain it when the other teams pit.
So I guess the strategy is knowing when to pit.

Agree about Cars 2, but Cars 3 is my absolute favorite.

@@IconicEnemy We sure do! 😉😆
That joke totally flew over my head as a kid.
The King's wife is voiced by Richard Petty's real life wife and she picked the kind of car she wanted her character to be, based on the car that she rode with their kids to Petty's races.
Cars made me a fan of country music as a kid, that's why I can't deny how good most of it is 😂
I know I'm probably just reading something into nothing, but I saw the whole fixing the road thing as a way to show how rehabilitation is more effective than just straight up arresting him.
I agree with this take. ❤ It also shows hard work sometimes can’t be avoided, and can help you grow within.
thats such a nice prospective
And it allowed lightning to grow from the experience and learn humility
Nope, I geniunely believe that fixing the road thing was a metaphor for Lightning's growth as a person

The "Life is a Highway" song used in the movie was a redone version by Rascal Flatts. The original song was made by Tom Cochrane.
The remake of Life is a Highway by Rascal Flatts was recorded for cars in 2006. The original was done by Canadian musician Tom Cochrane in 1991.
It's actually explained that the reason Lightning has no friends is because has as trust issues. The last time he depended on someone, they sabotaged him before a race, causing him to lose.
2:42 That is 100% ILLEGAL
NO BUMP PUSHING
NO CRASHES (IF only the car is out of control)
NO passing on restart, only whenever green flag is out
Allowed:
Passing each other
Blocking another car
Enter the pit road whenever they have to.

4) Demolition derby-don't know if these exist anymore-cars smash into each other and last car moving, wins.
Cars is my FAVORITE movie. So glad you’re reacting to it❤️❤️
Best movie in 2006 I watched it during the summer of that year when I was three with my brother and I watched it again before I graduated 8th grade forgot that it existed and then during the pandemic, brought back good memories (despite having a sh*tty childhood but there were some good movies and music that got my brother and I liked throughout those times) glad to see somebody else that really liked the pure and good story and entertainment of it.
The way I was OBSESSED with this movie when I was little 😂😂 probably why I love cars so much now lol
Funny thing is, after I became a semi driver I understood Mack trying to state federal DOT regulations to Lightning about resting. 😅 stupid I know, but knowing that made me chuckle.
Oklahoma has preserved the most amount of historic route 66 than any other state. Ive driven it...its super pretty, especially around sunrise and sunset.
Being a motorsports head. Having a animation about cars and racing. I love it.
One of the top 3 animated movies I’ve seen in my childhood…so nostalgic
“Matches the rest of the town” has to be the funniest shit I’ve heard 😂. Most people hate Lightning for that, but I just burst out laughing, like shit he did his job. I just lack sympathy cuz they technically had a deal
Ange you almost made tear up while you were watching this 🥺❤️ btw i was 9 when this movie came out ! Miss being a kid
Ayyy you’ve finally reacted to this! 2006 was the year I was born, so thank you for reacting to so many films from that year!
watching this film as a child was everything. i absolutely adore this film. one of my favourite parts is definitely the town's transformation- seeing all the neon signs and pretty colours is the best. i'm thankful that i've grown up beside ny father who loves cars - like he'd always watch races and include me and my siblings in his chats - we would go along to car shows and he would provide with information about them. it was nice.
The opening of this movie takes me right back to when I was 5 years old. I thought it was the most awesome thing ever. The music, the racecars, everything.
5-year-old me got the exact same feeling as 16-year-old me watching the final "Avengers assemble" in Endgame.
The most iconic line in cinema history "Pit Stop!"
i think he actually says speed stop because it was so quick of a stop idk jusy my hears hearing that more than pit stop lol
@@xsvenny2495 he said pit stop but with an accent so it sounded like peet.
I was a huge Cars fan back when I was a kid in 2008-2009. I had the diecasts from all three movies (I still have some hanging on my shelves), pajamas, books, and Disney Store toys. I even had a Cars birthday cake.
Brings back a lot of nostalgia, I was 4 when this came out loved putting it on a Friday after school with the lights off😂
Cars had one of the best character introductions of any animated film I've seen. Can I get a second on that?
I love this franchise a lot
It actually means a lot to me
Gawd, Hudson Hornets are such classy looking cars, even today.
I can't tell u i LOVE these OG Pixar films. Gives me comfort & helps me feel like a kid again
I'll never NOT feel happy to see Angelina reacting to these classic Pixar movies, watching her laugh, smile, crack up, cringe, etc, especially when she's delighted over a wholesome character like Mater. Kachow! ⚡⚡⚡ Angelina, if you're reading this comment, I want you to know that I love you and your reaction channel and I'll always be happy to see you 😀😀😊😊
Needed this, my head is a bit big right now haha, love it Angelina ❤
Still here because my head is a bit big right now haha
Once again here because my head big wtf 😭😭😭
This was my movie when I was a kid 😂 I honestly just love Pixar in general, but cars has a nostalgia favorite for me, same with Toy Story lol
Also Rest in Peace Paul Newman 🙏🙏
Life is a Highway is a cover that Rascal Flatts made for this movie yes. The original version was recorded by Tom Cochrane back in 1991😀
My favorite movie of all time along with Spirit Stallion of the Cimarron! This movie makes me laugh, cry and think non stop. It's my first love. Also McQueen's face gives me life at 6:50.
I have seen this movie like 500+ times I'm not even kidding
Your reaction videos are precious, they are so fun to watch and are rewatchable. :D Blessings!
Hi Angelina, I Absolutely Love n Adore Your Commentary. Incredible Movie Reaction, Keep Up The Incredible Work. Loved This Movie.
Now you’ve reacted on the following Pixar movies on your channel:
* Toy Story 1-4
* Monster’s Inc.
* Finding Nemo
* Cars
* Finding Dory
* Soul
* Luca
* Turning Red
_Coco, Ratatouille, Wall•E,_ and _Up_ were the only Pixar reactions you collaborated with TimotheeReacts.
Next, she should do A Bug’s Life.
"Life is a highway," was originally performed by Tom Cochrane in 1991. The cover was done by Rascal Flatts in 2006 for "Cars."
I can't remember when it was, but there was an archery contest where a similar thing happened in regards to sportmanship. They use a specialized tool for releasing arrows, but for one participant it locked up during his shot, so he lost his chance for one of the arrows. His competitor asked his team what had happened, and when it was his next arrow, he intentionally stepped away to not shoot that arrow, so to play on equal fields.
I think it was in Spain, or the competitor was Spanish (an Indoor European event anyway).
Personally, I relate to the small town dying kind of thing, because my parents are from a small town, and everyone is getting older there and passing away, and it makes me feel really sad
I loved cars as a child and still do! When the “life is a highway” scene would come on i’d always think of my dad driving down a highway to pick me up from daycare :)
This town is like a lot of little towns along Route 66. As soon as the interstate 70 was built, a lot of those towns dried up.
I was addicted to watching this movie when I was a kid. I dont remember this but she said I also listened to the soundtrack ALOT and jammed along to it. Which is weird considering the past 2-3 years I've been so addicted to music from games and movies I've started to actually learn music this year.
3:57 It took me a while to figure that out. I do know if this was humans instead of Cars the rating would go from G to R in a heartbeat.
4:30 Was this made for the movie? Oh you sweet summer child haha, now I feel old!
This movie was amazing tho, definitely one of my favourite Pixar films, and truly made by some really diehard auto fans. The passion and attention to detail they put into it is honestly incredible. And if you're ever at Disneyland, visiting Radiator Springs at sunset is pure magic...
Girl you're funny 🤣
You just earned a subscriber
Been a while since you’ve done an animated movie reaction since _Soul_ just 2 months ago.
Overall I love this film and while it has become Pixar’s biggest and most lucrative franchise in merchandising and their 2nd to have a franchise after _Toy Story_ it’s a very important and beautiful film and I loved Lightning McQueen’s journey and growth as a character and his relationship he has with the folks from Radiator Springs such as Mater, Doc Hudson and Sally.
Hope you get to react to the next Cars films (Cars 2-3) and the other Pixar films that you have yet to react to such as _A Bug’s Life, The Incredibles 1-2, Brave, Monster’s University, Inside Out, The Good Dinosaur, Onward_ and _Lightyear_
I can always count on Ange being always adorable.
One of pixar's greatest movies
4:25 her voice is beautiful! I cant even im too gay for this sjsjsndhdhdn
This is my favorite movie of all time. Cars 2 isn’t nearly as good but it still underrated, it’s enjoyable. Cars 3 is really good too but I’d watch the alternate ending as well as the actual one
Great reaction! My favorite moments in Cars are Our Town flashback, when McQueen finally learns to be selfless and helped out the Radiator Springs, King finish his last race, and kept his word for Mater. I would really recommend you check out the sequels to Cars as well as its shorts and series. If you want more car racing films, I definitely recommend Speed Racer (2007) and the Herbie film series.
🏎️🚘⚡️❤️💛
When I was a kid i didn't get that line from mater and now it makes me laugh every time
I love your reaction videos 🥰
When Lightning takes the lead in the final race, you can actually see the King smiling. He’s proud of him. What a great guy
Doc: "If you're going hard ebough left, you find yourself turning right"
Ange's immediate response: "That's true!" like no questions asked
Everyone who's ever driven a car: "Should we tell her?"
Thanks for the video. I enjoyed it.
Watching Mia and Tia flash their lights always makes me smile.
The story about the town before the interstate isn't just a story for the film, it's actual US history. The American West is filled with old towns that have "dried up" because they got bypassed by interstates. It's actually rather tragic. Route 66 is a famous example of this: since it went right down main street in many towns, the interstate was built around the towns, so people stopped going there. Now they're just empty shells decaying in the sun.
Respect to McQueen tho, when he lost to doc, even tho he was an asshole, he stuck to the bet and started fixing the road properly, and stayed until it was done.
Cars and Cars 3 are simple movies, but there's a LOT of PASSION behind them. And a lot of people who dog on these movies are failing to see that passion and it just makes me sad honestly. You can see that passion for NASCAR and atmosphere and characters in every frame. Cars 3 is a WONDERFUL underdog story in a different light with Lightning being outclassed vs being a Rookie in the first. And it's great to see how McQueen could have been like, if he hadn't been redeemed by the end of Cars via Jackson Storm.
I really think Cars 2 should've just stuck to Lightning, learning how to be a champion, and learning how to be one WITHOUT the help of Doc Hudson, who passed away off screen because his voice actor also passed. It could've been a rather engaging storyline to follow an unsure Lightning after seeing him be so confident as a Rookie. But for what they are, Cars and Cars 3 are certainly not the worst Pixar films as many claim them to be. They're not the cream of the crop, but they don't NEED to be; they're simply charming. And I like them for that.
You rewatched this movie literally WEEKS after me! XD Also, definitely watch Cars 3! I watched it for the first time not too long ago, and it's actually a LOT more mature and heart-felt than I was expecting!
Cars was one of my favorite Pixar movies growing up and glad you enjoyed watching it!
Fun Fact: Some of the characters were voiced by real racers. The King was voiced by Richard Petty. One of the best NASCAR racers of all time! 43 was his number and The King was based off one of the race cars Richard drove: a 1970 Plymouth Superbird!👍👍
And Doc is voiced by the late Paul Newman
I think it should be noted that this movie was accused of ripping off another movie, and you could actually see the similarities: DOC HOLLYWOOD. Definitely should check it out.
Also, the actor who voices Sheriff is Micheal Wallis, who was a historian and wrote the book Route 66: The Mother Road. He helped give insight to the people behind Cars on how the concept of the town should feel.
13:58 Mater: He did what in his cup?
Me: 🤣🤣🤣
this movie is a love letter to racing there are so many cameos in this movie. imo the best is in the german version, the king is voiced by niki lauda who himself had a horrific accident at the 1976 german gp and suffered life threatening burns
10/10 Exquisite and fun. Visuals steal the show.
Pixar again shows us their superior skills in 3D animation and to a lesser extent this time, the storytelling. There is so much attention to detail, that you are left gazing at the screen in awe. The 2 hours races by, and afterwards you are left with the satisfaction of having just seen something quite unique and surreal.
It's a kids film of course, so there is little need to point out the predictable story elements - which exist in Cars more so than previous Pixar films such as The Incredibles. Cars is less daring, is safer in its approach. There are no surprising or wild deviations on the fairly straight road the story follows. But nevertheless, it's all very cool stuff, and the story is entertaining enough. Cars is a must see Pixar film - even if the visuals steal the show.
4:30 - the cover was done for the movie by Rascal Flatts, the original song was written in 1991 by Tom Cochrane
It gives me happy and sad memories because I watched it in a theater in 2006 when I was 7 or 8 with my late father, a great experience
In NASCAR (what the movie is based off of), when someone crashes or there is debris on the track. Race officials throw out the caution (yellow flag). At that point, the field is frozen. No passing is permitted. During the caution, you can pit to get fuel and tires. If you do pit, there’s no guarantee you’ll keep your spot from when the caution was issued. You could gain a position or lose one. When the track is clear of all debris and wrecks, the green flag will be waved and the race is restarted.
This is MY FAVOURITE FILM OF ALL TIME!
3:10 A pit stop is made during the race without interruption. How many places the competitor loses is up to his mechanics. For example, in F1, the rule is that in dry conditions every car must make a pit stop at least once. When you say it like that, it looks like everyone is going back to the same places, but that's not the case. In F1, the so-called undercat and overcat work, where you can either gain or lose time and position on the track by either an earlier or a late pitstop. And all this without interrupting the race. Except for the red flag that is given during major accidents. And even after that, whoever takes the lead faster has a better position at the restart.
This is one of the best Pixar movies
