You have to admit, it honestly feels like the only chance we'd have against invading aliens. The fact that they got here in the first place proves they already have advanced knowledge of science and technology. What could we possibly have going for us, except some weird premonition and the power of a deity on our side?

This is just my opinion, but I feel like the Cars franchise was Pixar's "Jump The Shark" moment. Maybe it is just me, but I feel like the company that made a great movie about real life toys shifting over to making a movie to easily sell toys with what is basically a done to death plot and meh characters really turned me off to the company for quite a while.

I feel that Cars 2 definitely would have been better if it just focused on the challenge of McQueen adapting to European style racing rather than the James Bond story for Mater (on a side note, I did enjoy Michael Cain's performance....maybe they should have just done a straight up Spy Cars for him to star in).

The Mater's Tall Tales shorts are much more enjoyable than Cars 2. Goofy stories, told by Mater, that are entertaining and not to be taken seriously or part of the main story.
