Lightning McQueen gets into a nearly fatal accident at going just below 200 mph, but Mater can break the sound barrier and doesn’t get completely obliterated in an accident? The plot armor is strong with this tow truck.
@@ModelY303 The cars are designed to come apart in some areas while staying rigid and others. The drivers wear helmets and their bodies are protected by special safety harnesses for both the torso and neck. The suits they wear are also fire resistant. Perhaps McQueen's insides are protected from what would be instantly fatal to normal vehicles.
No matter how annoying certain things in this series got, the good stuff was enough for me to really enjoy it. Mater is absolutely at his funniest, and most relatable here.
Fun Fact: The original Godzilla movies were never stop-motion. They were actually the first to use and create suitmation. Suitmation is where an actor in a suit interacts with either green screen or an actual live action model layout. Just a little fun fact I thought you'd find interesting.
@@Latenivenatrix_Mcmasterae Stop-motion is when you take multiple pictures of something and put them all together to make a moving image. Hope that helps.
With what Tug said about Cruz, I'm pretty sure McQueen said he was going to keep racing. So after Cruz's first season was over, McQueen went back to racing the very next season.
I don’t think he meant full-time racing. He probably just meant in spirit, because he knew he couldn’t equate to that of the modern racers. What I mean by in spirit is that he went on to be Cruz's crew chief and continued training with her. He most likely even raced around Willy's Butte in his spare time, similarly to what Doc did.
@@eddiethefriendlytenderengine Since McQueen sort of won the race I thought he would still compete for the Piston Cup after Cruz's rookie year was over. Plus, he still races for the Piston Cup in Cars 3: Driven to Win which takes place after the movie and we see him racing in books like Cars 3 - Lead the Way.
@@eddiethefriendlytenderengine No, we're sure he meant full time racing. McQueen wouldn't be the same if he doesn't race. If he said he's back to racing then he is.
It seems like they left it open after cars 3 and didn’t provide a solid answer in this show. In the last episode McQueen says some like “we’re racers” in reference to Cruz, so he may still be, it’s not said explicitly either way
@@eddiethefriendlytenderengine bro in cars on road,, McQueen reached 190+mph easily,,bec he was healthy,,,in cars 3 McQueen suffering from mental health,, that's y he was weaker,,but still he can race with old frds like bobby,carl etc,,he can race with that generation car's,,
I personally feel they should have had more episodes relating to car culture. Would have loved to see one about tuner culture (bringing back the delinquent road hazards), the muscle car culture with some cars from the video games, or even the rat rod culture with some of the Americana cars from the first movie
I would've loved to see them covering rally culture, such as Group B. Cars is at its best when it's showing off various motorsports and how they're unique and wonderful in their own ways
@@MarioKartSuperCircuit Since 1995 I believe. It was originally going to be called The Yellow Car but was scrapped in 1999 for Toy Story 2. The project came back in 2001 and became the Cars we know and love
The first Cars film came out the year I was born, and so I’ve quite literally grown up WITH Cars. It holds a special place in my heart and I don’t think I will ever not live for the thrill of hearing Real Gone blast from my stereo or quoting “Kachow!” whenever I can’t think of anything good to say.
I forced my parents to watch it with me I held them hostage practically and they bought me ALL the dicasts and I would not let ANYBODY touch them if I lined them up color by color. Good times.
This is honestly the best Cars on the Roads review. You list off all the shows pros and cons, and offer a treatment that's actually better the original! I'm so glad it's back up!
McQueen didn’t retire from racing at the end of cars 3, he just took a break to mentor Cruz. He said so himself to sally at the end of the movie, he said “I’m going to keep racing, but before that, I got something I wanna do.” That thing being to mentor Cruz until she found her footing as a racer, then he would go back to racing. That’s why in the first episode he’s back in his racing colours
If I were to make a Cars show, I’d just base it off of Cars 3’s end credits, it’ll be purely episodic with maybe a few themes tying things together, we’ll see the triumphs of Cruz’s first season in the Piston Cup, we’ll see what happens to prominent locations after the events of the movie such as Radiator Springs possibly becoming popular again cuz of Cruz, and the Rusteze Racing Center’s state after Tex’s buyout, and we’ll even get to see what Mater has been up to and his shenanigans at Thunder Hollow and Thomasville, would’ve been way better and much more satisfying to see as a Cars fan than McQueen and Mater going on a random road trip that kinda comes out of nowhere, but if we were to go with that concept, it could’ve been handled a lot more better, even better than your purposed rewrite, overall Cars on the Road is a show that had the potential to bring me back into the Cars world and see the classic friendship of McQueen and Mater as they embark on this laid back road trip, but ended up leaving a bad taste in my mouth due to rushed writing and production, and concepts that they either didn’t go far enough with, or were completely flawed from the start and handled poorly in execution, this show is something that’s been on my mind only because it’s sorta recent, but something I definitely won’t be thinking about as much in the future, it doesn’t add or remove anything from the franchise, it’s just sorta that one rushed mini-series for Disney+ that they just put out for the sake of putting out a new Cars thing, it’s very, very mediocre
Glad you mentioned the car wash thing cause I thought about it every time they got dirty. How has it taken this long for them to introduce this concept. If cars are like humans in this world, don’t they need to take a shower/car wash everyday?
Humans don't need wash everyday? We demand it since were in a modern society and nobody likes to be dirty and stinky, but outside of that everyday shower isn't really necessary, for most of the history if we washed, it was like once a week/month
14:44: Maybe they could utilize that to expand on Cruz's character. She went through something similar, she could mentor Ivy the same way Lightning McQueen mentored her.
Also, in The Legend, the Hunters say they are looking for "Bigfoot", who, I didn't realise when I first heard the mention, is also a real-life monster truck. It took me not too long to find that out.
I actually know about the Bigfoot monster truck from an obscure animated series called “Meteor and the Mighty Monster Trucks.” I can’t remember what channel it was on, I think it Qubo. But anyway, it was from that show I first found out about Bigfoot (the monster truck, not the mythological creature).
Honestly, Cars: On The Road was a missed opportunity. I appreciate what it was trying to do with the concepts, but some of the stories and how the characters are treated at the end don’t impress me. Which is a shame because I was excited for this series. And while watching it, I felt bitter about it.
The first time I saw the Dino park ep I legit thought they took a Dino car toy and did real stop motion with it. I guess that shows how real it looked.
Let alone some of the other THQ Cars characters. If Tug ever gets into game reviewing (unlikely but I can dream), I'd love to see him review the OTHER Cars trilogy: the THQ games.
Here is what I would change: First of all, McQueen has his blue Hudson themed look. Ramirez is also in the first episode and she lives in radiator springs. She doesn't show up in the other episodes and she just shows up in the last as she suddenly got invited. That's what I would change
First time I saw Incredibles 2, I felt like I was eating a favorite dish that was missing a spice. It's like it had the ingredients I loved from the first dish, but it was off. I realize now that secret ingredient was integrity. Good job.
After watching GamingMagic13’s review of this show, and after rewatching your review, I dunno what to think about this show, but I’m gonna hold my breath until I can get Disney+! 😂
@Sarim Oh…. To be honest, I see him as a very passionate critic. Sure, lashing on anybody who likes stuff he hates is dumb, but in stuff like his Incredibles 2 review, he makes some genuinely decent points, and brings up stuff others may not think about.
All I can say is I wish the Cars 2 characters showed back up, I loved Finn But yeah, what a great review, I agree whole-heartedly. Would’ve loved the show so much more if they could’ve thrown in as much thought as you
@Julian “Jules” R that channel's standard video runtime is one of the reasons I'd probably never watch it (they're around an hour & a half - well over two hours), it comes across as pretentious and bloated to me. Not that I have an issue with long videos as a whole though.
I honestly mostly felt like watching this because 1. I always liked Cars (unpopular opinion: I only thought Cars 2 was bad by Pixar standards which is a really high bar anyway) and 2. This show had Steve Purcell heavily involved which sold me as someone who happens to be a big fan of Sam and Max, and so much of this kinda reminds of Sam and Max Hit the Road a bit!
20:35-20:48-It would be nice and appealing if Disney included expanded universe characters in Cars on the Road just like how they included Grand Admiral Thrawn and Rukh in Star Wars: Rebels or Cobb Vanth, Black Krrsantan, and Brendol Hux in The Mandoverse.
Those scenes when lightning and mater are driving together, reminds me one of the first teaser of Cars where we met lightning and mater for the first time driving and talking along side in the road
3:33 uhh, actually, Godzilla wasnt stop motion, it was a guy in a suit kind of movie, this part is a reference to the original 1933 King Kong movie or the beast from 20 000 fathoms
We have seen Mater backwards drive in the night forest and we have seen LMq utilize driving backwards AND learn how to drive in a hostile forest at night. I'm surprised that not even once does someone utilize the open road aspect of it all and use these two things in conjunction. They have so many options.
If Season 2 of Cars on the Road ever happens on Disney Day (A.K.A. Disney's Birthday...?) Let's hope it shows McQueen, Mater, Cruz and Ivy have new destinations and return home afterwards
You say Cars 2 makes no sense, however Cars 2 is the only Pixar movie aside from the incredibles to use guns, which is to me, a very bold move to do in any movie rated under PG 13, considering that Cars 2 came out in 2011, and many Animation studios quit using guns a long time before then.
When you say stop motion monster movies, I hope you mean King Kong because Godzilla is all suit-mation. The original King Kong used models for stop motion animation.
3:27 Love the video! It's awesome to see Pixar at work to give Cars some love, especially with the animation. But this personally irked me. Films like King Kong and Beast From 20,000 Fathoms utilized high amounts of stop motion animation for their monsters. Meanwhile Godzilla (even the 1954 original) specifically used a rubber suit actor. The film has a 1-second stop motion sequence involving his tail but by no means is the movie even close to being considered stop motion.
I would have loved to see Mack in the Trucks episode, sure it wouldn't make sense why he is there but I feel like Pixel would have animated him as a cameo in Mater's fantasy
8:24 everyone just lost the race, most people would look at that car and go it's not fast, thats the Mercedes T-80 or designed to look like it, the T-80 was tested to reach up to 750 kph for an event run but was immediately cancelled because they had to prepare for WWll and because it took so long the T-80 was discontinued shoved into a garage and due to WWll MB never made any more after that, the car was so famous a unnamed Austrian painter unofficially called it the Schwarzer Vogel (Black Bird) and was to be painted in Dutchland colours with the failed Austrian painters logo badge on it 😐
I get wits you mean with the 50’s monster movie bit but unfortunately godzilla was not a good choice as he was 99.9% of the time never done with stop motion baring one small moment in the original and one moment in the original kong vs Godzilla
20:35 It's such a shame that not a single one of the characters from the THQ video games have ever been acknowledged in the series... aside from Mater National characters being repurposed as background characters in Tokyo Mater.
I loved it it was a nice good little show that put me in a good feel also it's short so it was fun. I don't need every show to have some story and plot cause mater and mcquuen are good characters and they shine on the road together to enjoy it.
I'm sorry but my inner geek needs to speak out: at 3:33 you mention "Godzilla" as one of the old classic stop motion movies. This was one of the worst false examples you could've used, as the original Godzilla was specifically known for NOT using stop-motion and instead inventing a new style known as Suit-mation, which became a staple of the series to come.
To me the Disney+ series Cars on the Road reusing the Guido model for a background or a minor character is kinda like if a Sonic production set in the game continuity used the Knuckles model for background mobian characters or if a Star Wars production had Yoda's Species as background alien characters.
15:39 The licensed models stood out even more like the Nissan Figaros and Pugeot 206s, those were never sold in the US so I don't think they would be native to the US in that universe. I'm sure the cars immigrate but the amount of times those models were used were a little excessive.
8:37 in the old mobile game Cars: Fast as Lightning, released in 2014, you actually could unlock a car wash that gave you free EXP every couple of hours. And you could even send some cars in there for some extra goodies. If anything, those two episodes of Mater wanting to be better at stuff could serve as a hint of foreshadowing to the final episode where it’s revealed, via his sister, that he’s always had somewhat of a competitive streak.
Cars 2 is a guilty pleasure for me. Probably because I loved it as a kid and Larry the Cable Guy is one of my favorite comedians. I'm not gonna say this guy's wrong to dislike it, but I look back on it fondly
3:25-3:33 I would say this is more along the lines of a Ray Harryhausen movie, not Godzilla. I think someone else may have said this, but Godzilla did NOT use stop motion.
I see the main point of cars as an "imaginary story about wehicles" . . and because of that is why they can get away with with things like: the weird biomechanical anatomy , or , how can a character a machine from one angle and not from another and other stuff like that , whitch wouldn't make sence irl but works as an imaginary concept
The Shining episode of the Cars television series was fantastic lol I’m a die hard Kubrick fan and thought they did a great job of translating the Overlook into the Cars world ❤
When i heard of a cars spinoff show i thought of the other racers lightning ran with, really from any of the movies, having their focus in individual episodes to further flesh them out. The focus being on Lightning and Mater dissapointed me a bit. I have not watched this yet, but the announcement of what the show would be distanced me from watching it
Lightning McQueen gets into a nearly fatal accident at going just below 200 mph, but Mater can break the sound barrier and doesn’t get completely obliterated in an accident? The plot armor is strong with this tow truck.
Hes physically stronger then mcqueen.
I mean, he literally cheated death in that scene to stay alive.

5:04 I love the door gag when matter dies
First time a car door in the universe has ever shown opening.
Its just black void inside :)
I think Mater should've lashed back at both his sister and Bubba for mistreating him, cut off contact with them and he and McQueen head home.

I kinda agree, yeah. It is more concise.

WHY DO SOMEONE PUT THE : IN TITLE WHEN OFFICIALLY NOT!??!?!?!?!!?😪😪😪😪
It's kind of a force of habit for me. And I think it fits a bit better.
The stop motion segment was actually a homage to Ray Harryhausen, the man that did Jason And The Argonauts.
The first time I saw the Dino park ep I legit thought they took a Dino car toy and did real stop motion with it. I guess that shows how real it looked.
I hadn’t seen any Harryhausen movie and even I knew what they were referencing with that dream sequence.

Meanwhile Godzilla (even the 1954 original) specifically used a rubber suit actor. The film has a 1-second stop motion sequence involving his tail but by no means is the movie even close to being considered stop motion.
I would have loved to see Mack in the Trucks episode, sure it wouldn't make sense why he is there but I feel like Pixel would have animated him as a cameo in Mater's fantasy
8:24 everyone just lost the race, most people would look at that car and go it's not fast, thats the Mercedes T-80 or designed to look like it, the T-80 was tested to reach up to 750 kph for an event run but was immediately cancelled because they had to prepare for WWll and because it took so long the T-80 was discontinued shoved into a garage and due to WWll MB never made any more after that, the car was so famous a unnamed Austrian painter unofficially called it the Schwarzer Vogel (Black Bird) and was to be painted in Dutchland colours with the failed Austrian painters logo badge on it 😐
I get wits you mean with the 50’s monster movie bit but unfortunately godzilla was not a good choice as he was 99.9% of the time never done with stop motion baring one small moment in the original and one moment in the original kong vs Godzilla
Loving the Vulfpeck as background music
I haven’t seen this yet, but I can agree that some of these things are basically in the Cars 2 universe
20:35 It's such a shame that not a single one of the characters from the THQ video games have ever been acknowledged in the series... aside from Mater National characters being repurposed as background characters in Tokyo Mater.
I loved it it was a nice good little show that put me in a good feel also it's short so it was fun. I don't need every show to have some story and plot cause mater and mcquuen are good characters and they shine on the road together to enjoy it.
5:57: Okay, that edit didn't annoy me at all. That just scared me if anything.
I'm sorry but my inner geek needs to speak out: at 3:33 you mention "Godzilla" as one of the old classic stop motion movies. This was one of the worst false examples you could've used, as the original Godzilla was specifically known for NOT using stop-motion and instead inventing a new style known as Suit-mation, which became a staple of the series to come.
I love the Cars franchise and I love everything about this review!
Could’ve just skipped this entire show if they took a plane
That would have been boring.
As McQueen said in Cars 1: “where’s the entertainment in that?”
To me the Disney+ series Cars on the Road reusing the Guido model for a background or a minor character is kinda like if a Sonic production set in the game continuity used the Knuckles model for background mobian characters or if a Star Wars production had Yoda's Species as background alien characters.
Especially since Guido is supposed to be a fictional Italian forklift model that is supposed to be rare in the United States of America.
the thing i love most about your re write is including Bubba, he has been forgotten since the comics.
Here's my opinion mcqueen and mater could meet some of the piston cup racers and their pit crew teams from cars 1
I was sick when it was released so I binged watched it and it did cheer me up has it’s flaws yes but it’s fun
Bro, the old faces also counted as the demolition cars in cars 3
15:39 The licensed models stood out even more like the Nissan Figaros and Pugeot 206s, those were never sold in the US so I don't think they would be native to the US in that universe. I'm sure the cars immigrate but the amount of times those models were used were a little excessive.
I think your take on it is absolutely excellent love the idea with bubba
When you gonna take a look at Maters Tall Tales
Number one!
Good review!
8:37 in the old mobile game Cars: Fast as Lightning, released in 2014, you actually could unlock a car wash that gave you free EXP every couple of hours. And you could even send some cars in there for some extra goodies.
If anything, those two episodes of Mater wanting to be better at stuff could serve as a hint of foreshadowing to the final episode where it’s revealed, via his sister, that he’s always had somewhat of a competitive streak.
Cars 2 is a guilty pleasure for me. Probably because I loved it as a kid and Larry the Cable Guy is one of my favorite comedians. I'm not gonna say this guy's wrong to dislike it, but I look back on it fondly
I don’t care for Cars on the Road as much as Mater’s Tall Tales, but it was pretty good.
3:25-3:33 I would say this is more along the lines of a Ray Harryhausen movie, not Godzilla. I think someone else may have said this, but Godzilla did NOT use stop motion.
Why did you capitalize "Not"
@@YouAreASadStrangeMan I did that for emphasis.
There are straws on the drink glasses.
Technically Godzilla was not stop motion it was suit Mation 3:30
I see the main point of cars as an "imaginary story about wehicles" . . and because of that is why they can get away with with things like: the weird biomechanical anatomy , or , how can a character a machine from one angle and not from another
and other stuff like that , whitch wouldn't make sence irl but works as an imaginary concept
1:46 I was actually thinking that when I first watched this, and then he just flat out said it
Maybe they use the washer for mud flaps? That’s all I could think of
The Shining episode of the Cars television series was fantastic lol I’m a die hard Kubrick fan and thought they did a great job of translating the Overlook into the Cars world ❤
4:58 this part made me laugh when I binged watched the episodes with my sister 💀💀💀💀
I can definitely imagine if Doc showed up in Cars on The Road.
If submarines are whales in the cars universe, I wonder what Grampus would look like in said universe.
When i heard of a cars spinoff show i thought of the other racers lightning ran with, really from any of the movies, having their focus in individual episodes to further flesh them out. The focus being on Lightning and Mater dissapointed me a bit. I have not watched this yet, but the announcement of what the show would be distanced me from watching it
