I find myself even today being annoyed that they copied Doc Hollywood so completely. I really enjoyed the movie, but couldn't they have thought of something at least a bit new? It was Doc Hollywood with cars. It was better than Doc, but still, the movie has been done!

Never saw Doc Hollywood.

I have (and detailed the similarity in my review) but it didn't bother me at all.

For me the middle of the movie was much better than the beginning and the end.

I wish I hadn't. Cars really is quite good, I think, I really really liked it. But the fact that it was just like it was distracting for me.

I need a lighting McQueen bumper sticker. It's my maiden name and I tend to drive - ummm - not slow. But my lovely daughter said "Mom, shouldn't yours say crash McQueen?" :rolleyes:

Ka-Chow!

I didn't see 'Doc Hollywood' either. But I knew the premise of the story just by watching the previews. I knew exactly what the film was going to be about.

Anyone catch these things:

-Lightyear Tires
-The car parts in the scenery
-One of the racecars being called 'Jr' (voiced by Dale Earnhardt Jr.)
-The Rusteeze Brothers are Click and Clack from NPR

And Guido reminded me a lot of the cleaner shrimp in 'Nemo' but Italian.

I wish The King character was built up a little more to give the ending more oomph.

And what is that organic gas McQueen buys from George Carlin's character at the end? Hmmm? :D

The tire selling trucks spoke Italian a couple of times in the movie and apparently whatever they said was pretty funny. A lot of people in my theatre understood Italian... :D

You maiden name is Lightning?

I heard this on the radio the other day and just confirmed it (at least as much as I had patience to...):

Who is the only person to be a voice in all seven major Pixar releases?

Hey! I called that, even before I looked at the spoiler! Norm the Mailman was such a great character........

According to the common names search at IMDb,

John Ratzenberger and Joe Ranft both have voice parts in all seven movies. For three of them, however, he is just one of the credited "Additional Voices." His streak is now over, however, since he died last year in a car accident (there is a tribute to him during the credits of Cars).

Andrew Stanton has voice credits in six of the seven movies, lacking Monsters, Inc.
