Default "Cars" movie

Just went and saw "Cars" with the wife and kids. Pretty neat, especially if you have car-nut son like I do. Lots of references to the old days of NASCAR--the Petty Superbird and the Hudson Hornet, among others.

(two thumbs up)

Been to it four times now with my spoiled little car nut.. he and I went, then we had to take his mother, then his brothers and sisters, then grandparents when they visited.. I am hoping no one else visits or it comes out on dvd soon.. good show, go and see it..

Got to see the first half of it -- went to see it on opening day with my family when a lightening strike hit the substation that serves my local RAVE theatre, and cut off power for the rest of the afternoon. Power cut off right after the 'tractor tipping' scene. Hope to make it back to see the ending soon!

If you are like me at least you got to see one of the best scenes of the movie. Classic!

I got to see the World Premiere of the movie at Lowe's Motor Speedway on May 26. It is an amazing movie. Very entertaining!

My 2 boys LOVED it...and of course, they want to eat at McDonald's every meal now so they can get a Happy Meal with one of the promotional movie cars inside...I'm just glad we don't have a McDonald's here in town or else I'd be broke!

Pixar has amazing talent for not just animation but hitting the story dead on!.

This was my 4.5 year old son's first Movie theater experience and he sat on the edge of his chair for the full movie and would not even eat Popcorn. We all loved it, and he also knew all the characters names. Great Movie and even better marketing job by PIXAR/DISNEY, the stuff is everywhere. We went to a car show over the weekend here in Illinois which also had die cast collectables. Johnny Lightning is making some pretty cool detailed replicas, and I had to buy one for my son.
