This may be a little out there, but...

This may be a little out there, but something tells me that the whole deal with Cars 2 is a practical joke. What I mean is that Pixar would never make a film like the one they said was going to be Cars 2. We should know better; Pixar wouldn’t make the film only about Mater and his one-liners, or racing in exotic locations, Pixar is hiding something. Here is my 3-part theory:

1: Everything we know about Cars 2 so far is either a clever little fib, or a smaller detail than it appears. For all we know the finished product could include all the things previously mentioned, like how it’s just the same movie as the original but in different places, or how it’s just an hour and a half long version of Mater’s Tall Tales, but I don’t think so. Sure Mater might still have a more joke-heavy role, but there is obviously a stronger aspect of the movie that Pixar is keeping a secret. That’s also why I think the trailer has been pulled for a longer release date.

2: What could be different about Cars 2? Well, everything. A more epic story, stronger character development, a more romance-heavy theme, life-or-death situations. It could be everything. I keep having dreams about how Cars 2 might turn out. Something tells me there’s going to be lots of explosions, but that’s just me. As I’ve said before, Pixar would never make the movie they’ve convinced us they’re making.

3: Pixar is waiting to release the trailer to make us surprised. Either the trailer would be exactly like we’d expect (pop-culture jokes, tour of some of the World races, and lots of Mater) and we’d have to wait until the movie comes out to be fully surprised by how different it is; or the trailer would be different and would give suspicious fans hope and devoted fans more anticipation. Only time can tell, and I know this may be confusing and that this entire idea of mine could be totally bogus…but something tells me that we don’t know nothin’ 'bout Cars 2…That Cars 2 is a very different movie than we might think, but in a good way.

-And for all you guys out there who are complaining that Pixar is ruining their name by making this film, and that the idea is stupid and bound to suck, bla, bla, bla…Just give it a rest! It’s Pixar! I know I’ve felt unsure about some of their films before, and they all turned out amazing. No matter how bad the trailer for Cars 2 might be, there’s no doubt that the movie will be incredible. “So why don’t you just- shut off!” (-TBLT) To say it in a more nice fashion, just wait a little longer, I think you’ll be surprised by how good the finished product might be. :wink:

I agree with you Chuckles. There is so much we don’t know about Cars 2, and it really feels like Pixar is keeping something about the film a major secret. While I doubt any of the information we already know about the film was false fed to us, I still think there is something major Pixar is refusing to reveal.

It certainly builds the suspense and anticipation!

Chuckles, you don’t have any idea how much i agree with you on the people saying that this movie is going to suck. They need to just stfu and wait till the movie comes out. And besides, Pixar clearly said that they will only do a sequel if they find a story better than the original and the toy story sequels are perfect examples of that.

Yeah, they could be holding out on us. But then again, that’s a very bad marketing tactic, and it’s why Cloudy with a chance of meatballs didn’t do so hot…

EDIT: This post is directed to the super die hard fans. Not the fans who just like the movie. This is directed to those who literally eat, sleep, and breathe this movie. I’m not saying I don’t have doubts about the movie, but I’m being positive. All I’m saying is that if you’re that big of a Cars fan, you should at least have a bit more faith. I’m not putting you down. If it seriously sounds like I am, I’m seriously not.


I’m glad there is someone else here that is positive about Cars 2. There are so many Cars fans who are so negative about it coming out. You people seriously need to have more faith. You’re Cars fans. You owe it to Cars to give its sequel a chance. Do you forget it’s Pixar? Have they ever let us down? No. I dare you to say they did. But to say this movie is going to flop just because the one character you don’t like may actually have the spotlight, which once again, THEY NEVER SAID WAS GOING TO HAPPEN, is a bit extreme. So what if Mater is the main character? Every little kid likes him. Honestly, the movie isn’t directed to us. It’s for the little kids.

Again, I know it’s pretty obvious that Mater is going to have a big part in Cars 2, but they never said he was the main focus. His part is a subplot. They said that. Lightning is still the main character. So you can chill out now.

I really find it amazing how many people on this site can travel through time and see how the movie is going to be. GIVE IT A CHANCE.

Edit: If Cars 2 is anything like the Cars Toons, then it’s going to be the funniest Pixar movie ever, considering the last Cars Toon that came out. It was the funniest one out of all of them.

You’re right. I’m expecting to be in the theater for Cars 2 and the trailers end and suddenly Lasseter and crew appear on screen and say “Surprise!” and then what follows is The Incredibles 2: Son of Syndrome.

Fett101- That would be bad. I know some little kids counting down the days to it’s release. :laughing:

Chuckles- That is an interesting theory. I have a feeling some of it is true but we will just have to wait.

EDIT- Please don’t use quotes within quotes, especially for a post directly above yours. Thanks!

fett101, that made me LOL.

I agree with that, Jessie. I’m tired of all this anti-Mater stuff around here. Honestly, someone really should give Larry the Cable-guy a hug.

hugs Larry the Cable Guy
He from Nebraska like my ancestors, so he’s basically amazing.

Ahh, a Cars conspiracy! I think the lack of trailor and details may be because Cars 2 was hittin some snags in the road a while back, and had production problems. It might be a bit behind schedule or something. I remember a few Pixar headlines a few months ago, 'Cars2 has prodcution problems" and “Lasseter joins as co-director”. I’m sure it’ll all work out in the end.

It’s going to be great. I have no doubts.

I’m excited about Cars 2 also!!! :smiley: But at the same time you have to be realistic…I don’t know I’m really trying not to dislike Mater and worry about Cars 2.But comeon guys seriously…you can’t tell me that he’s stealing the show…why can’t they give everybody a chance in the spotlight…Jessie,Virgina if you think it’s bad on here go to imdb.com and see for yourself…I work my [spoil]butt[/spoil] of trying to defend Cars so it’s not like I’m not a true Cars fan…I just worry…and about Mater I don’t know it’s like a love-dislike thing for him,he’s funny and charming,but he’s also VERY annoying somtimes…

I see that a lot of people find Mater annoying, I just don’t understand. I found a large portion of the characters irritating in their own ways, and Mater never bothered me.

Ah yes, but I don’t go to IMDB because people there are boneheads.

I don’t go there because people would kill me slowly and painfully.

Jessie, I love your signature!! :smiley:

Thank you! :smiley:

Witness the greatest cover-up in Pixar history… :open_mouth:

Great theory, Chuckles. I really do hope Pixar strikes again! Like… Lightning! Kachow!

Oh, the ‘suspension’ is killing me! :slight_smile:

Yeah I hope Cars 2 is really good. I can’t wait for all the Toy Story 3 hype to finally be over that way the internet will try to get information out of Pixar too.

I think it may die a few months after the DVD release.

Anyway, I’m pretty sure Cars 2 will be better than Cars. Pixar’s films have been getting much deeper since Cars, from what I can tell.

I know…it’s like…they’re starting to get too serious.

TS3 was way too serious for me, but I thought Up was great, and Wall-E was…deep. Not the best, but very meaningful.

I still want Cars 2 to have the same feel, much like TS3 did not. I just think it will be less funny(which is sad in ways), as well as being a better film. I lovd the original, I just feel that this one will be even better. :smiley:
