RIP Paul Newman, the voice of Doc Hudson. As a NASCAR fan for most of my life, I cannot tell you how HYPED the opening to this movie makes me feel. The classic sights, sounds, camera angles, fans, etc. THEY EVEN BROUGHT IN THE ACTUAL NASCAR BOOTH ANNOUNCERS! They made a real love letter to racing here and I can't get enough of it.

Owen Wilson and Larry the Cable Guy were awesome in this movie.

The joke of using the same voice actor at the end is still the best joke Pixar has ever made

I really like the message of this film, where sometimes you have to slow down and enjoy life. And that's what McQueen does after he started off as a selfish jerk. There's more to racing than just winning. Cars isn't one of the stronger Pixar films, but it's still an enjoyable time, and definitely one I always rewatch!

31:39 Yes, sadly Joe Ranft passed away in a car crash during the production. This film along with Corpse Bride is dedicated in his memory. He also voiced Lenny and Wheezy from Toy Story, Heimlich from A Bugs Life, Jacques from Finding Nemo, and Red in Cars

Strip Weathers is voiced by a legend racer Richard Petty aka The King himself, he is an American former stock car racing driver who competed from 1958 to 1992 in the former NASCAR Grand National and Winston Cup Series, included winning the Daytona 500 a record seven times and winning a record 27 races in one season in 1967, and His Character Weathers is an anthropomorphic version of Petty's 1970 Plymouth Superbird, sporting the same shade of blue and Petty's racing number, 43 and is also a fictionalized version of him, and Richard petty's late wife Lynda Petty also voiced Lynda Weathers in the film

There's actually a book that detailed Lightning's backstory and origins as a racer. His real name is Montgomery, and he learned to race at an Racing Academy where the top student would receive a sponsorship. During his time there, McQueen befriended another car named Carl, and the two often spent their time racing each other in friendly competitions. Before the final race of the year, in which would determine who would graduate and earn the sponsorship, Carl told McQueen there was a problem with his car parts (I don't remember exactly what it was) and urged him to remove it to avoid any crashes. However, this was a lie as McQueen was in perfect condition, and this removal made McQueen slower and allowed Carl to overtake him and win the race, and Carl earned the sponsorship, and McQueen felt betrayed by the one who he thought was his friend, and after that, McQueen came to believe that he could only depend on himself and didn't need anyone to avoid suffering another betrayal, which explains his self-confidence and lack of teamwork skills at the beginning of the movie. After graduating and racing on the minor leagues, McQueen was fired from his sponsor, Smell Swell Deodorizer in favor of another young rookie racer named Sammy Smelter, whose poor racing fit the image of Smell Swell better, according to the representative who fired McQueen. Mack, who had overheard McQueen's termination, approached him and offered to take McQueen to Boston to meet for a job opportunity with Rust-eze, who had been looking, with little success, for a new spokescar. During their trip, McQueen and Mack became fast friends. Upon their arrival in Boston, Rusty and Dusty Rust-eze offered a sponsorship to McQueen. Though he was initially hesitant due to the sponsor's humiliating demeanor, McQueen ONLY agreed if Rust-eze allowed Mack to become his driver, which they allowed, and that's how McQueen and Mack came to work together.

The whole design of Radiator Springs was inspired by the director plus others traveling Route 66 and taking inspiration directly from landmarks/buildings. One example is the Wigwam Hotel which are teepees, but in this movie they were cones.

A lot of people dog this one for some reason, no, it's not masterpiece level, but I think it's pretty charming if nothing else. The ending is moving to me because McQueen saved the King's legacy. His career would have ended on a tragic note, and McQueen winning would have overshadowed the whole thing. Instead he helped the King finish with dignity, and his selfless act makes it a day that everyone will remember forever, but for the best reasons now.

The voice of the Ferrari in the final Luigi’s scene, is in fact Michael Schumacher ❤️🔥

The reason why doc wanted McQueen to get out of the court, was because doc WAS a race car himself, and his crash in 54 really stopped his racing career, when he tried to get back to racing, they told him “your history” and they moved on to the next rookie standing in line. So doc keeps that, to remember never to go back.

Life is a highway is such a good song just in general

This brings me back my brother was obsessed with Cars. Cars 3 is such a good sequel for the first movie. I think you'll enjoy it too

One of my all time favorite movies. When I got it on DVD for my 10th birthday, I would watch it over and over.

So many people talk about this being one of the weakest Pixar movies… I seriously love it. I like how McQueen improved himself as well as finding a true friend and mentor. And really, the Rascal Flats cover of “Life is a Highway” is my favorite version of the song.

This was my favorite movie as a 3 year old but only because talking cars. After rewatching it at an older age I loved all of the little life lessons, especially from Doc

6:44, I believe because this version of the song was done for this movie actually.

Michael Keaton was great as Chick Hicks

This movie got me into the world of car culture and became a fan of the Hudson Hornet too.

I love the list of racer appearances. You got Darrell Waltrip, Dale Jr., Richard Petty, and Michael Schumacher

I still think the best bit of casting in this one is George Carlin as the hippie VW bus...it was probably his mellowest role ever. LOL 😁

20:01 18 years later and I still NEVER get tired of that joke!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

The voice cast in this movie is top notch, and the movie so off-the-wall fun that it's easily one of Pixar's better entries.

I loved this movie as a kid. it inspired me to get into racing and now I follow both Nascar and the 24-hour of LeMans. P.S. Enjoy retirement Jeff Gordan! ❤💯

"ANTZ", is a great animated film that was overshadowed by "A Bug's Life" when it came out. If you don't know it, you should check it out. It has life lessons for days.

Still one of the best soundtracks in a non-musical Disney movie, and I’ll die on that hill 😤 (the *best* is Meet the Robinsons’ btw)

King of the Tapirs: "NOOOOO!!! NOT HEIMLICH!!!!!" Smash cut to The King grinning like a child lol.

7:33 I'd say Mack is sleep driving

This movie played on repeat for the first 2 years of my sons life! He was obsessed ❤ this movie will always hold a special place in my heart 😊

Oh yeah, another animated classic! Hope you guys watch the sequels!

Rip Joe Ranft 1960-2005 George Carlin 1937-2008 Paul Newman 1925-2008 Tom Magliozzi 1937-2014 and Katherine Helmond 1929-2019

I’m surprised you guys haven’t reacted to Finding Nemo

2:53 that's the song I have playing on my phone whenever I'm doing a car chase in GTA 5 it helps me focus

Technically, Disney ripped off the plot of this movie from a 1991 Michael J. Fox movie called Doc Hollywood. An arrogant Doctor has a car accident and crashes in a small town. He legally can't leave until he makes amends. He must serve as the town doctor helping the quirky town folk. He meets a pretty local, falls in love and stays in the town.

Cannot believe you guys have not seen this trilogy yet.

Man, Bold move cutting out your reaction to what many feel is the heart of the movie and the actual turning point of Lightning's mindset. I have not seen you guys cut such a large and important section out of your other reactions previously, gotta wonder why on this one. I think this is going to be the first reaction by you guys that I can't give a like to.

29:36 Ferrari's voice - Michael Schumacher, legendary racer, 7-time F1 champion

RIP, Paul Newman, aka Doc Hudson Hornet.

There’s a hilarious extra scene after the credits where Mater finds his original hood and then immediately loses it again in the funniest possible way🤣

"He won 3 piston cups!" *He did what in his cup?!* Now I get it 🤣

In the UK, Harv is voiced by Jeremy Clarkson, the host of the popular British car show Top Gear.

Totally rad reaction dudes! I freakin' love this movie, it's fun, entertaining and has heart! Being a NASCAR fan (and racing in general), the homages/references are phenomenal! Mater is the best....hands down, or I guess in this case tires down?!?!?...."he did what in his cup" line gets me everytime!!😂😂 Rest In Peace to Paul Newman (Doc Hudson) and to the others that we lost. Again guys, great reaction as always! Many blessings to you and yours!

My only son was about 4 years old during that time & he had collected Cars characters. This was his recovery from Hurricane Katrina. His dad & I fought for his childhood for the best.❤❤❤

License to drive is a great film grab some snacks sit back and enjoy the ride 🎉**

I can’t wait to see your guys’ reaction onto Cars 2.

Appropriate timing since it’s the 75th anniversary of NASCAR and the 30th anniversary of my home state of NH hosting race weekend for NASCAR at the Loudon Speedway! I know nothing about NASCAR, btw, other than I’m not into it but it’s been all over the news here so I’ve osmosed it haha!

These guys have never met a title screen they didn't like.

From someone who's been prepping lunch and dinner for the next few days while listening to your reaction, my favorite part is absolutely you two stumbling through a review knowing you've been distracted by those delicious weenie smells for at least the past half hour. Go eat something! Pizza? Let's fitness pizza in your mouths. Happy weekend!!!

The amount of adult jokes and shit I noticed in this movie years later after watching it as a kid lol 1. The twins at the beginning of the movie turn on their lights and “flash” Lightning 2. Sally’s tattoo is technically their version of a tramp stamp if you think about it 😅 Those are just a few, y’all gotta be on the lookout when going back to our favourite Disney movies as kids lol

This is basically a Disney re-spin of the movie "Doc Hollywood" ..

14:46 McQueen: Well, it matches the rest of the town.

This Movie is a classic I was enjoying watching it as a kid, its such a nostalgia!

My sons favorite movie ever. Helped a ton with potty training as he hated sweets. Stars for cars! He ended up with a nice collection.

Everyone Else: "I love Cars 1 and 3 is okay but 2 is a blight on the Earth" Me: "I don't really like any of these movies, but 2 is easily the most fun and enjoyable" But my kids love all three so of course I've seen them all more than I'd care to, and I've softened on them ever so slightly because I live how into it they get.

9:37 at the radiator springs replica they built in Disney Land the light in the middle of town actually has this flaw where every third blink is slower. Also the Hudson Hornet was a real race car with the exact same paint job as Doc.

They even had the King’s car pirouette on it’s nose just like Petty’s infamous crash.

I watched this one when it came out. When The King is presented I thought "you know? I like this guy", then he goes to McQueen to give good advice and I thought "you know? I love this guy". And at the end of the last race I cried my eyes out and I was already almost 20yo. This movie really hits different when you're a real racing fan, all the homages, all the little details, the story, it's all really really amazing. About racing themed movies, I recommend Rush, with Chris Hemsworth

There are a lot of unanswered questions about how the world of cars works but i still love this movie 😂😂😂

This movie is every ounce of my childhood and I miss it

This was my childhood!❤ I love this and the sequel so much.

This is a really good movie! Great actors, great soundtrack, and a story that is just gold!

Doc Hudson is voiced by the late Paul Newman, from Cool Hand Luke and the Towering Inferno.

Gotta love Mater. Larry the Cable Guy is a great actor and comedian. 30:52 the end credits has to do with John Ratzenberger who pretty much plays a character in every Pixar movie. He was in an old tv show called “Cheers”.

I remember seeing this in theaters and just the rumble and sounds of the cars at the theater was loud but awesome. I even had the soundtrack

There's tapirs in guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 3

So happy to see this masterpiece

31:38 that for some reason made me laugh when he said that

I'm loving the "Save the Tapirs" shirt! Back in the day at the National Zoo in D.C., the tapirs were the first animal you saw when entered. There was a big sign that said, "Consider the Tapir," and that was always one of my favorite things about the city growing up.

Doc was crispy as hell with that drift🔥🔥

Wow the subtle and direct burns in this movie are awesome

i dunno if its cus i got of work and really wanted some nostalgia, but this one really made me laugh guys. love all you both do for us.

One of my favorite childhood movies that I had the games, a pillow, a lamp, and a cover

This is my favorite childhood movie I'm glad you guys reaction to it

I low key love y’all’s goofy random intros

One of my favorite movies of all time!!! I love cars the first one is always the best one!! I remember when this came out I was 6

One of the best Pixar movies ever!!! I still remember seeing it in the theaters as a kid

I had forgotten the ending with the other pixar movies as cars, thanks for reacting

yesss an upload! love you guys!

The fact it’s your first time watching this movie and 2 minutes in you started questioning the logic of the cars universe😂😂😂

I listen to Real Gone and Life is a Highway regularly to this day. Such great songs!

Thank u both for reacting to my all-time favorite movie, Cars. I've seen it many times ever since I was 4 and a half in 2007 . In fact, that movie made me become a Nascar fan 3 years later in 2010. Imo, this movie is the best Pixar movie ever

Yesss my boys watching a classic get ready to rev them cars i hope you carry this on all three 😁

The character of the King was basically based on NASCAR King Richard Petty. Many of the race cars are based on actual racers.

I remember everytime I watch this movie at my uncle's house when I was a kid, he and my cousin are a fans of this movie and I always hear them screaming each other back and forth on who's gonna get a better Car 🤣🤣🤣

love you guys collection in the background so sick 🤯

The King was voiced by the real life "The King", Richard Petty

KA-CHOW

You two are living the dream. My favorite day at school was always when we got to watch movies. I never thought it could be a career choice though! I was also the class clown which fits you two perfectly 😆

John ratzenberger at the end there voiced a character in almost every Pixar movie. I love finding him😂

dinoco's crash is also the same crash as rusty wallace's crash in 1993. The beginning song is real gone sung by Cheryl Crow.

Love the intros!❤ They always make me laugh😂

When he goes back for the king I cry every time

I can’t wait for you guys to see the other 2 Cars movies.

Mater was funny “KISS uhhhh INT” 😂😂

I know so many people who didn't get the joke why Luigi fainted when the Ferrari's were speaking Italian....lol

A lot of people don't realize this. Cars storyline is based on and almost identical plot points to a Michael J Fox movie called Doc Hollywood.

The radiator springs ride in Cali is so dang fun too❤❤❤

I can never get through the movie cars. I always fall asleep, but not because I am bored but the movie just relaxes me so much for some reason I end up falling asleep I just I love the movie so much

I adore this movie and I adore you guys! Am I on the hot mom list for Curtis yet? 😂

I always feel Chick Hicks should if not serving jail time for attempted murder at least be banned from the racing circuit for his causing those crashes.
