    It seems like the 2 or 3films that folks said to me that I HAD TO SEE as they loved loved loved it.. I expected I don't know.. something to keep me interested and whatnot. They ended up being major disapointments.

    I don't think CARS is one of these films. I think that I benefited from the negative media folks because I really didn't know what to expect. I definitely am excited about Ratatouille.. but not in the same way I enjoyed Cars. I saw it twice. I'm ready for the dvd in a few months. "peetstop!" hee hee.. so yeah, I'd rate it a 3 out of 5.. or a 4 out of 5 for cuteness.

    Ummm, not *everyone*...<<

    Okay, I said it was so good. Now I owe Jim $30. Would you settle for a slightly used copy of The Goonies?

    It just didn't work for me.

    To me, 'The Incredibles' is by far, my favorite of the Pixar movies.

    'Cars' is probably near the bottom -- in fact, it is.

    1. The Incredibles
    2. Toy Story 2
    3. Toy Story
    4. Finding Nemo
    5. Monsters, Inc.
    6. a bug's life
    7. Cars

    As far at Rat a tooie -- now that didn't interest me at all -- like an animated Stuart Little ( which is a series I disliked a lot ) - but then that is why they make different movies
