<VV> "Cars" - NO CORVAIR

[Bruce Schug]

Last night, Kathie and I had the pleasure of attending the World  
Premier of the new Dinsey - Pixar movie, "Cars" at Lowe's Motor  
Speedway, in Charlotte. Our daughter was able to get free tickets for  
us, her husband and their two-and-a-half-year-old. When this movie  
comes to your town - drive; drive FAST to go and see it. I opens June  
9th.

If you're not familiar with any of the previous Pixar animated movies,  
such as "Finding Nemo", "The Incredibles", "Toy Story" and others,  
you've really missed it. These are truly family entertainment that  
people of any age will enjoy. For adults, there are many humerus things  
that only an adult would understand. The animation is simply  
incredible! In the case of "Cars", this is also true for "car guys",  
that is, people who understand cars and some of the lore that goes with  
them will get more out of this movie.

You'll get more out of seeing "Cars" if you do a little research  
beforehand. First, you might want to view the previews, maybe more than  
once. This is the kind of movie rich with hidden meanings and humor,  
that you'll need more than one viewing to see them all.

Here's where the trailer is:

If you have trouble with that URL, try: http://tinyurl.com/rdw3p

You can also look at: http://disney.go.com/disneypictures/cars/

Besides viewing the URL, you can dig around that site and learn more  
about the characters.

One of my favorite things in the movie was what was shown on the map as  
"Cadillac Range", I think it was. As you look at the trailer, can you  
spot it? If not, go here for a clue"

Finally, you will like this movie if you like:

Paul Newman, cars, Hudsen Hornets, Bonnie Hunt, James Taylor... have we  
covered everyone yet? On and by the way, if you think this movie is  
just a bunch of electronic Disneyish fluff, it does have a meaning and  
a moral, as you will see when you view it.
