Originally Posted By Hans Reinhardt "Cars was good! Tis a shame you did not feel the same way Hans Reinhardt." I think it's weakest of Pixar's films. The car thing got old after a while. There were several times that I felt like I was watching an elongated Cheveron commercial.
Originally Posted By gurgitoy2 Well, it was obvious that it was not in California, because Lightning McQueen kept saying how he needed to get to the Piston Cup IN California. If he was already there, he would have just said Los Angeles.
Originally Posted By FREAKforDISNEY You just proved yer own point wrong without even knowing it Cadillac Ranch is a real place (Which they spoofed) just outside of Amarillo Texas, most of the rock formations (many of which we dont have in California at all) have been said in interviews to be based off of this stretch on the Historic Route 66. Cadillac Ranch is most famed for it "art" of classic Cadillacs placed in the groud sticking long ways into the air. I'm sure you have seen pictures of it at somepoint, its a well known place.

Originally Posted By trekkeruss Sure they could have a Cars meet-and-greet. They could even make it interactive, and get an actor to play Lightning, ala Turtle Talk.
Originally Posted By ChiMike I think it would be in DCA's best long-term interest to raze the current route 66 area and build a new themed (maybe San Fran) area in it's place. Then, from scratch, build a new Route 66 area in Timon anchored by the Cars/Test Track attraction. I agree with Hans, I too think Cars was easily Pixar's weakest film.

Originally Posted By Hans Reinhardt ^^Technically speaking the film was amazing. The story was surprisingly pedestrian and very predictable.
