We have always been big fans and defenders of this, so far the only slept on Pixar classic. Sure, young boys seem to love the merchendise, but where is the love for the amazing story, and bittersweet nostaglia for the changing Amercian landscape? Regardless, this is a great way to rev up for this summer’s sequel, but we can’t help but wonder if this is just a cash grab… you’d imagine when the CARS 2 hits Blu-ray in the Fall, this will get re-released with even more bonus features.
5 stars for the movie, no stars for the inevitable double-dip
