Excellent movie. Loved all of the character voices, especially the Lightning McQueen's sponsors. (Click & Clack from Car Talk on NPR).

Great sound track, too.  BB watched part of it, and flirted with the women behind us the rest.

Beefy

Hey, how about that.  Another Pixar movie I get to boycott.

I've still managed to avoid this, and Timothy still gets mad every time there's a Larry the Cable Guy movie he wants to see and I tell him that that dick will never get a dime of my money if I can help it.

some comments there said that Cars didn't warrant a sequel.   i think disney has produced a lot of direct-to-video sequels that i never even knew about.   milking it as long as people are willing to pay, i guess.

Gamplayerx

Weird.  I just watched this movie on Sunday (I did a big kids' movie day - Cars, Stuart Little and Doogal).  Somebody tell me again - why is Larry the Cable Guy such a factor in movie boycotts?  I still haven't figured out just who he is.  It seems whatever he does that gets you all so riled up doesn't intersect with anything that I'm watching.

Jessie

QuoteLarry was born in Pawnee City, Neb., in 1963, but, as he is quick to point out, he had moved to Florida by his midteens. He attended the Baptist University of America in Decatur, Ga., and it was there, among Bible folk, that his accent thickened and he began a study of the rural South. Returning to Florida, he created an unruly alter ego—a cable guy—and began delivering comic radio commentaries that inveighed against "evil commie libs and politically correct uptight crybabies." His voice was a gooey whine; the material was reactionary veering into the racist. (Kim Jong-il, the leader of North Korea, was a "sweet-and-sour commie gook.") When the news failed to move him, Larry would tweak the nostalgia factories of the South. He read fictitious letters from a Confederate soldier that described the less noble moments of the Noble Cause. ("I got in a skirmish with some Yankee sumbitch and to make a long story short my wiener was blown off. Not a good day. I'll write more later.") It was this persona—bluff and crass, almost perversely "Southern"—that he moved from the radio to the stage and then to the Blue Collar Comedy Tour.

Here's a couple of quotes that David Cross quoted in his open letter:

Quote
Re: Abu Ghraib Torture -

"Let me ask some of these commie rag head carpet flying wicker basket on the head balancing scumbags something!"

Re: Having a Muslim cleric give the opening prayer at the Republican Convention -

"What the hell is this the cartoon network? The Republicans had a muslim give the opening prayer at there (sic) convention! What the hell's going on around here! Is Muslim now the official religion of the United States!...First these peckerheads ( Ironically, "peckerhead" was a derogatory word slaves and their offspring used to describe white people) fly planes into towers and now theys (sic) prayin' before conventions! People say not all of em did that and I say who gives a rats fat ass! That's a fricken slap in the face to New York city by having some muslim sum-bitch give the invocation at the republican convention! This country pretty much bans the Christian religion (the religion of George Washington and John Wayne) virtually from anything public and then they got us watchin' this muslim BS!! Ya wanna pray to allah then drag yer flea infested ass over to where they pray to allah at!" End Quote. So...yeah. There you go. This quote goes on and on but my favorite part is when you say towards the end, "...now look, I love all people (except terrorist countries that want to kill us)..."

I've read other stuff of his that i didn't like, things he used to talk about on the radio before he toned it down.  He's a pig.

Good god, I wonder if he typed his own responses here.  If so, I wonder if he's this illiterate, or if it's still part of his persona.

No doubt the guy sounds like an ass - but lots of people are asses and lots of people are way more assy. 

Jessie

I just can't stand him, or anything about him, really.

It annoys me that he's a caricature of his fans, and somehow they don't see that he's mocking them.  I guess that's not his fault, though.

I just don't care to knowingly support the career of an openly racist or homophobic or otherwise hateful person, even if they hide their hate behind 'comedy'.
we should have kept the quote pyramid up to rape Jessie in the face.

Gamplayerx

But in not supporting his career, aren't you also not supporting potentially really terrific people's careers, too?

I just looked up Cars and see that Larry the Cable Guy is just the voice of the tow truck.  I thought perhaps he was the driving force (haha!  driving force -- punny) behind the movie.

Jessie

I'm willing to take that risk.

It's made a little easier since he's yet to make a movie that I actually want to see.

I dislike Larry the Cable Guy and James Mangold, so I don't support their work.

Larry the Cable Guy is a douchebag for encouraging and exploiting racism for profit.  That's my opinion and it's as valid as anyone else's.

It surprises me that Disney encourages that kind of "comedy" by employing him.  But then again, they probably get the real, college educated guy and not the caricature.  Problem is, they're still selling the caricature with their films.

[/quote]

John McCain was trained to hate them and to not see them as people, so he could be trained to kill them.  Then, on top of that, some of them imprisoned and tortured him.

Dan Whitney probably got bad service at a chinese restaurant once, but really he says those things to further his career.

I don't think they're comparable.




"I've never trusted Klingons, and I never will.  I can never forgive them for the death of my boy."  -James T. Kirk     And millions watched him.

I know I know.  This topic has not been posted in for at least 120 days.

But it's here, and I didn't want to start a whole 'nother thread about this movie.

We watched it again this weekend and it is so well done, so smart, so funny and so creative...  plus it has a good, heartwarming story.  Sure, people have argued that it's "Doc Hollywood for cars" but so what?

It brings tears to my eyes every time I see it AND it cracks my shit up.

For those of you who are boycotting it so that Larry the Cable Guy doesn't get a nickel of your money- I'll mail you my copy of this movie, and you can send it back COD.  You really are missing out if that's still the reason you don't want to watch this.
"Pinky, are you pondering what I'm pondering?"
I think so, Brain, but how will we get the Spice Girls into the paella?

Beefy

I don't even want to hear his voice.  Couple that with my total lack on interest in any "sport" that involves driving in a circle and the fact that Pixar's narrative template has gotten more than a bit stale, and I just can't generate any interest.  Thanks for the offer, though.

(I haven't even finished watching Wall-E and I've had it for almost two years.  Never bothered with Up.  Didn't see Toy Story 3.  Only mildly interested in Monsters, Inc. 2, just because I love the first one so much.)

dazie

How's the view from up there?

Wall-E is spectacular.  You're doing yourself a disservice by not watching it. 

Up was underwhelming for me after all the hype (same with lots of movies, like The Hangover and Tropic Thunder), but I thought it was cute.

I've never watched any Toy Story or Shrek movie. 

I didn't know there was a Monsters Inc 2.  I liked the first one ok.

I don't have any desire to see Cars.  I don't want to listen to Larry the Cable Douche's voice either.  I just can't bring myself to do it.

I don't think it's being superior to not get driving in circles or like Larry the Cable Guy.  I don't get or like lots of things.  I'm sure you do as well, and you make decisions based upon those dislikes.

I acknowledge Pixar is a talented bunch, but the shine has diminished for me in that you can predict the narrative beats before they happen.  I know lots of people like Cars, seemingly more adults than kids in my experience, but it just leaves me feeling apathetic.  Factor in Larry and it's not worth bothering to me. 

And now that Pixar has given up on original content for the foreseeable future, I don't see myself getting excited about much else they do.

dazie

Then say it that way. 

When I see you use phrases like "my total lack on interest in any "sport" that involves driving in a circle" and stating that you can't be "bothered" to finish Wall-E, I feel you're being a real snob about it.   Above all us peons that do like the movie.
"Pinky, are you pondering what I'm pondering?"

meredith

honestly i figured dazie was taking more than the criticism of cars into account.  passing over cars because it's not your bag, okay.  didn't finish wall-e? maybe the message is too loud in that one, i get where you're coming from.   didn't touch Up or Toy Story 3?  okay, starting to strike me as stubborn ;)

i mean, i know you're a more enlightened viewer and all, but i also know you spend some fraction of your time watching true garbage too. won't you make pixar some of that garbage?

Beefy

Everyone is a snob about something they like or don't like that others don't share an opinion of.  Let's not act like you don't all do the same about something.

I am not better than anyone for not wanting to watch it, but I won't apologize for not being bothered with it.  I'm allowed to wonder why other people don't perceive the same things I do.  I'm allowed to be critical about it.  Same with Nascar.

Actually, I do feel a bit bigger than Nascar fans.  People will have to deal with it.  I think driving in circles is boring and stupid and I have every right to mock people who enjoy it.  I'm glad they enjoy it, but I'm still gonna mock them.  "Oh look Bubba Joe, another left turn!  Shit Bobby Ray, grab me another can of Skoal!"

Nascar is as much a "sport" to me as curling is.  We'll have Olympic origami soon enough, just you watch.

I don't consider myself an enlightened moviegoer, though I have seen a wider range than most folks.  And I freaking adore garbage cinema.  Mainly when it doesn't pretend to be anything more than what it is.  I revel in it.  The lack of pretense is refreshing.

I think Cars looks lame and sounds lame, and I think Larry the Cable Guy should be shot and people who think he's funny ought to be eradicated.  I guess y'all will have to deal with that. 

I wasn't critical of anyone on here liking whatever they like, and I even said thanks for the offer.  Trust me, you'll know when I'm being deliberately condescending or hostile.

Never seen, or wanted to see Gone with the Wind or The Dukes of Hazzard. And Gregory Peck doesn't have a southern accent, no matter how hard he tries.

we should have kept the quote pyramid up to rape Jessie in the face.

"Pinky, are you pondering what I'm pondering?"
I think so, Brain, but how will we get the Spice Girls into the paella?

You're an asshole and I hate you.

I used to think Nascar was stupid, but then someone explained to me how the scoring works and how it really is more than just "left turn". I don't really like it or watch it, but now I understand the appeal. It's the same with me and Golf, until someone who liked it explained it to me I just didn't get it.

I've never seen Cars because I just didn't get around to it.

Up was funny.

Wall-E came out and when Sara and I were dating and she is like Eva and I'm like Wall-E so we really enjoyed it.

When someone like Family Guy makes fun of the South, I usually feel like it's mean spirited and they really believe we are all stupid hicks. Larry the Cable Guy embraces those stereotypes and makes them so ridiculous and over the top that I feel like he gets it and is poking fun more at the people that view the South in a bad way than the South itself. I'm not a huge fan but I like him.

And just to clarify, Texas is not part of the "South". It's Texas.
A clever man commits no minor blunders.

Larry the Cable Guy isn't a southern guy.  He is selling a mockery of the south to the very people that he is mocking.

Anyone who willfully riles up his audiences by talking about killing "towelheads" can go jump off a bridge.

Jessie

Also that.  He's also a homophobe.

I am not a fan of NASCAR or any auto racing of any kind, but I still moderately enjoyed Cars. I will go on record as being a definite fan of Disney in general, and also of Pixar Disney films. I consider Cars to be one of Pixar's weakest films.

It was not as much of a box office success as other films they've done, (considering it grossed $244,082,982 domestically and  $217,900,167 in foreign markets compared to Toy Story 3 which has already grossed $389,761,491 domestically and $436,400,000 foreign) but still made enough money that they are doing a Cars 2 movie and building a complete 'land' themed on the movie for Disney's California Adventure theme park in Anaheim.

Frankly, I'm puzzled as to why they would choose Cars to franchise as a film instead of something that is ready built for franchising, like The Incredibles, which cost less to make, was more enjoyable (in my opinion) and made $261,441,092 domestically.

But as to the entertainment value, I'd have to say Cars was moderately entertaining. I enjoyed it more than I did Ratatouille, which was IMO definitely the weakest offering ever to come from Pixar.
What the hell is this space used for?

Ratatouille was Pixar?  I haven't seen it, but I thought it was regular animation.

Ratatouille was awesome.  Great movie.

Gamp, yep...Ratatouille was Pixar. you can see all the information for it at http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0382932/.

See, and that's the thing Beefy...in comparison to other animated offerings I really enjoyed Ratatouille as well. When I say it was the weakest, that is relevant only to Pixar offerings. In reality, even though it was one of the weakest films in Pixars collection, it is still a strong film compared to other animated fare.

Apparently audiences resonated with it as well because it grossed $206,445,654 domestically and $417,277,164 in foreign receipts. If you compare that to Pixars closest competitor, Dreamworks Animation (publishers of Shrek, etc.) then you see a picture emerging about Pixars domination of the animation market. Dreamworks most successful animated film was Shrek 2 and it grossed  $441,226,247 domestically and $478,612,511 in foreign box office.

So, even though Ratatouille is Pixars lowest grossing film and the 'weakest' in their pantheon of great films, it still performs relatively well against the competitions best film. Yes, it grossed less than half of Shrek 2's domestic total, but it holds its weight against the foreign totals fairly well, yet this was Pixars weakest film.

So overall, if you go by success, Pixar puts out the most entertainment for your buck when it comes to animated fare. So far they have yet to put out a dog, and now that they are branching out into live action films, I for one am pretty excited to see what they come up with.

First on the docket: John Carter of Mars. It will be a mix of live action and CGI, Pixar style. We'll see how they do.
