    It's sad because Cars 3 isn't so bad, Cars 3 actually feels like the real sequel to Cars 1, but the damaged caused by Cars 2 was irreparable so Cars 3 wasn't such a major success. I was so shocked when Cars 3 was a normal movie again because I had been so burned from Cars 2. 8:00 Yep you mentioned it, exactly my thoughts.

      ​@@hx20games77 Right. That's probably the reason why Lightning had the flame shapes in his paints (the element kept from the World Grand Prix design) and still had actual headlights and even Jeff Gorvette made an appearence in the third movie. So they don't ignore the second movie completely but don't specifically remember it either. But I still like Cars 2 and I can consider it canon. The lemon concept was brilliant and it was a good story about Lightning and Mater through their ups and downs.

      @@Movietuff I think cars 2 should've just cut the spy stuff completely, focus on the races with lightning and maters relationship as a side plot affecting lightnings ability to race and both of them needing to realize and change for the better, cars 2 had a few nice concepts but the whole spy thriller thing just wasn't a good idea, not to mention making the world feel human rather than controlled by vehicles (notice how a lot of stuff are human like? like actual food for example). Cars 3 just handles the idea of mcqueen getting old fairly well imo, I really like how it pretty much "repeats history" in the way that mcqueen basically goes through the same troubles Hudson did.

      Hilariously, I think the ONLY thing that actually carried over from Cars 2 to 3 is Doc's death. Even then though, it's only briefly implied in 2 to the point where it might as well have never been acknowledged, while 3 goes all-in on showcasing his legacy. So yeah, it is my headcanon that Cars 2 is just a feature-length Mater's Tall Tales

    While I understand fully the hate for this movie and why people consider this the worst Pixar film. But maybe it’s nostalgia but I always loved this movie. I was 7-8 when this movie came out and I was hyped. Seeing my favorite characters back on a globetrotting adventure was amazing. Seeing the intense action between Mater and the spies, and especially Lightning racing against the best racers around the world was a spectacular to watch. And Lightning and Mater’s relationship was and still so emotional to me. I get it, this movie doesn’t make sense and then with Cars 3 after makes this look like a weird spinoff, but I’ll always love this movie. Definitely a good video though, keep up the great work.

    The whole bit about 'lemon' cars and Otis getting trashed as a joke on the first scene and james bond villain style disabled mafia family all rubbed me the wrong way.
    They introduced eugenics in their universe in the worse way possible.
    Like, if 'lemon' is a slur, and it sounds like it (in universe, i know in real life it just describes hazardous cars that gets discontinued for safety reason), then it's kinda bad that the protagonist keeps using that word without ever learning to stop.
    The iffy part didn't start here, in the first movie Lightning was doing false *medical* advertisement for a rust treatment oil but it was at least acknowledged to be _bad,_ since he looked so uncomfortable after seeing cars rotting, having their whole jaw fall off.
    As a kid I played the game that came from this and never watched the film, so I was very surprised when I saw the film almost a year ago. Like, what. Is this ableism??? Am I reading too much into it? Who made this? Who put this in a vcildren's cartoon😭🤮?!

    honestly i've never really gotten into the cars 2 hate, i argue that cars as a franchise on its foundation was already pretty underdeveloped out of necessity and so turning the second film into a spy thriller would be just as insane as the premise of the world existing. my only gripe i would say is that for the plot to continue, characters have to be lobotomized in order to believe matter is a really competent spy just really deep in character. there was probably a way they could have kept him in the story without lowering the intelligence of spies of all people. at the end of all this however i end up laughing at the film for existing more than i get annoyed at it for that one gripe i have

He is no longer a rookie, he is in the world grand prix! if he is already a professional racer he should have simply ignored mater and left francesco bernoulli in his place from the start,
    but of course he didn't do that because..........I don't know, I guess John Lasseter didn't come up with a better idea for McQueen to get mad at Mater

I’m even starting to wonder if there’s any point to having the G rating anymore and maybe the MPAA should just retire the rating altogether.

    While I don't think it's the worst Pixar movie. Brave and the Good Dinosaur take that spot. Cars 2 stands out for being the first bad Pixar film. Which makes it seem worse in the eyes of the public, but I can at least watch parts of the movie and enjoy them.
    More than I can say about Brave and the Good Dinosaur that's for sure.

    I didn’t like Cars 2, not only the fact I despise spy movies, even this movie had too many spy cliches as the main reason why I hate them, but it’s because of how this movie is too violent and out of place for a G-rated movie, and the heroes are causing a lot more death and destruction than the villains. Granted, the characters they killed are only bad guys and they probably get what they deserved, but the problem is they’ve only killed two agents, the racers that got shot by an EMP survived that, and when they did capture the heroes, they only follow the cliched spy villain archetype by putting them in easily escapable death traps, which breaks the suspension of disbelief. And if the heroes are only defending themselves, they could’ve just stun them with tasers or something instead of slaughtering them, like Kratos. I know there are people who like this film for a different reason, mostly because of nostalgia, and that’s okay, but as a kid watching it, I was like confused by the storyline and characters, and every time I’ve been viewing so many cliches like this, I’m getting tired of it.

    When I was little, I was obsessed with both Toy Story and Cars. I had this huge collection of Lightning McQueen, Mater, and the rest of the characters. I still have them in my room. When the teaser trailer for Cars 2 dropped, my parents showed me the trailer and I was super excited for the sequel. Once the movie came out, I loved it. At first, I thought Cars 2 did successfull in the box office. Little did I know, this movie failed, which I can see why. The story should've focused on McQueen's story. Its his franchise. In my opinion, Cars 1's animation is better than the other Cars movies due to how shiny it is. Sure Cars 2 & 3 have better improvement with lighting but Cars 1 looked really beautiful. Now that I'm turning 19 in December, I think Cars 2 was an okay movie. However, Cars 1 & 3 is much better.

  • @ethanschmid4104
    @ethanschmid4104 11 місяців тому +1

    If I’m honest, focusing on Cars 3 on a side-note, I don’t mind the whole “passing the torch” thing to Cruz Ramirez but the fact that the trailers made it so focused on Lightning McQueen and not on Cruz Ramirez was just, to b who eat, insulting. It’s not the biggest problem but there are other ways of making this work and maybe adding in a fourth Cars movie and that’s to wait until it happens. For example, McQueen heard about Cruz saying that she wanted to be a racer forever because of him. McQueen is, as usual, shocked by this like in the movie and wanted to make it up to her. He makes a deal with Cruz saying that if he wins against Storm and wins another Piston Cup (I’m not sure how the time would of year it would go), he, Smoky, and the other legends would then train her to be, either a fellow teammate for McQueen’s organization, let Tex assist them in making her the next Dinoco driver like in the end. All of that would be in the next movie but that’s just me. What do you think? Is this a good idea or would you prefer what we got in the Final Cut or in the deleted scenes for the final race? Like I said, I don’t mind what we got but I felt like it could’ve been done better.
    As for Cars 2, this was the start of the downfall of Pixar overall whereas the previous movie, Toy Story 3, was the perfect ending for the franchise and the end of the Golden Age of Pixar (1995-2010). This movie should not have existed.

    I mean, You’re not wrong. Cars 2 doesn’t work as a sequel, but if you actually separate it from Cars 1, and 3, it’s actually not bad, I actually do like this movie, a lot. I liked everything about the movie. From the characters, to the story, to the animation, to the main character, to the soundtrack, etc. This movie would definitely work better as a spinoff. And other movies have done this before. Like Puss in Boots the last wish for example. I’m not saying it’s the best Pixar movie, but I think it definitely is one of the best in my humble opinion. And besides, Pixar definitely has had worse movies then Cars 2. like Toy Story 4, The Good Dinosaur, Lightyear, and the worst Pixar movie ever made, Turning Red.

Why are people hating as if they just don’t like spy thrillers. The characters are fun and I don’t think we necessarily needed another story arc about lighting when we got a good one in the first movie. This movie tackles the fact that everyone sees matter as an idiot very well. Also I find it weird that people think cars 3 should be 2, like what? So after the first one we’re supposed to just skip all the way to him being retired, even that doesn’t make sense cause there is hardly any concept of time in these films.

    Pixar really shit the bed with this movie. It's illogical in a bad way. Even a movie as amazingly bad as Sharknado or cartoons as insane as Roadrunner cartoons felt more logical than Cars 2.
    I can accept illogical stuff in a fictional work. But, the illogical aspects of a fictional work at least have to be funny (ex: Sharknado movies allow sharks to breathe outside of water and be carried by tornadoes so they can attack people, Roadrunner cartoons are meant to be funny and fantastical).
    They're self-aware about their absurdity, hence where the cheap laughs come in. They have some basis in reality, too. Sharks can and have landed in neighborhood lawns and streets after a really bad hurricane. Sure, they're dead and dried out, but the idea of sharks being carried out of the ocean by a dangerous cyclone isn't out of the realm of possibility. Likewise, predator and prey relationships do exist in Nature, and coyotes do eat birds. Birds like the peregrine falcon can move at racecar-like speeds, and birds like the magpie are very smart. Thus, a coyote who tries endlessly to catch a super-fast and crafty bird is believable. Sharknado and Roadrunner cartoons are just an exaggerated version of real life and Nature, in other words.
    There're a lot of laughs that can come from looking at cars with big, googly windshield eyes. That's partly why folks enjoyed Cars 1. The vehicles were anthropomorphic, but not too much. They were just minivans, semi trucks, tow trucks, sports cars, etc that could talk and emote. That's it.
    -They race.
    -They consume gasoline, not food
    -They use car washes to stay clean
    -They stay in giant traffic cones and gas stations for shelter
    -Because the front bumpers and headlights of cars somewhat resemble animal-like faces and a car's tires resemble the legs of a quadrupedal animal, you can bring a car to life pretty easily. It helps that cars like a Ford Mustang or a Chevy Corvette have more personality and charisma than other consumer products like a computer or a toaster.
    A world of cars built by cars. There's a basis in reality for this setup because cars do in fact need to go car washes to stay clean and need gasoline to stay in working condition. Just perfect!
    But, in Cars 2, we see:
    -Vehicles eating wasabi and tacos instead of gasoline
    -Vehicles drinking cocktails and beer instead of gasoline
    -No more giant traffic cones. Now only buildings that could only have been constructed for human use
    -The bathrooms, which really should've been car washes like in Cars 1, are now man-made bathrooms with bathroom stalls and sinks that are presumably designed for human use.
    -The bathroom stalls would have to be the size of a parking lot to fit multiple vehicles that are >2,000 lbs in weight and >12 feet in length, yet they have sinks that would only work for human hands.
    -We even see a lavatory truck right outside of an airplane, which implies that vehicles can, uhh, defecate....?
    -We see airplanes that are large enough only to fit cars and trucks that are probably about 1-5 tons in weight. So, if you're a 30+ ton semi truck or a 500+ ton train, then you can't travel to see the rest of the world. Sucks to be you.
    They aren't even self-aware about the absurdity or anything. Even if they had been self-aware, there's no humor behind a man-made setting without humans and only consumer products because they have no basis in reality. The illogical aspects of Cars 2 hurt the Cars series overall by making the viewer conjure up all sorts of vile, disgusting images about how these Cars' biology would work. Just look at all the creepy-ass videos online that try to explain how the Cars' bodies work.
