You do know that half of these people who do these movie reaction act like they haven’t watch good films so they can react and get good views 😂 it’s so obvious with people like sebscreen never watched Toy Story and all the basic films 😮
Even more attention to detail, in the last lap when McQueen passes king, you can see king smiling as he recognizes the rookie is next to rule the piston cup
Trivia note: At the end of Finding Nemo, there was a message that said "In Memory Of Glenn McQueen," whom was a Pixar staff member that had been around since the beginning. Well, Cars 1 came out right after Finding Nemo, so they named the protagonist Lightning McQueen in honor of Glenn.
Don, to answer some of your questions, the reason the cars swerve at the start of the race is to help the tires heat up and gain traction. And the reason they change tires throughout the race is because the tires get worn out quickly due the extreme speed and also heat buildup from friction.
Route 66 is a long ass route that goes through from Chicago, Illinois, through Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico, and Arizona before terminating in Santa Monica in Los Angeles County, California
5:08 Cars do that to warm up the tires before racing; it helps with traction The reason Doc Hudson wanted to get rid of Lightning McQueen, is because of Doc’s backstory; “After the Hudson Hornet crashed out in 1954, he was kicked out of racing then he had a fresh start to becoming a Doctor of Radiator Springs after fixing a broken down car, then when he saw Lightning McQueen in 2006, it flashed him back into Racing when he got kicked out, so he was trying to get rid of him. He then regretted what he did and became McQueen’s pit crew and mentor before he passed away in 2009

This movie was my childhood! I had everything! Lightning McQueen toys, lightning McQueen cups and plates, a cars cake for my bday and a McQueen car seat! I was obsessed lol 😅
I loved rewatching this movie when I was young. I like how instead of Lightning winning he sacrifices the trophy to help his friend❤. 50:50 if you look at the bottom middle of the screen you can see two cars drooling on the cars below.
Some information about the races: - It is called 'NASCAR', not F1. NASCAR is an American race series that (almost) only race on oval tracks (like the ones you see in the film) - "Why are you swerving on the track?" You are only allowed to do that under a 'yellow flag' or 'safety car'. It is used to warm up the tires. Warmer tires = More grip However, race tires wear off quickly, so you need to change tires in Pitstops
at 30:00 the reason why lightning isnt going fast because hes springs/coils are set to drive on asphalt/race tracks, so the are way more stiff and it makes the car really junky to drive in soft terrain. you can see that Maters car isnt bouncing nearly as much because he has soft springs under him
Some fun facts, 1. The King is voiced by famous NASCAR driver Richard Petty who was nicknamed the King due to his 7 championships. He also drove a car similar to the one in the movie 2. The red car the King refers to as Junior is voiced by nascar hall of famer Dale Earnhardt Jr. 3. The opening track is based off the real life track Bristol Motor Speedway 4. Doc Hudson is based off a real 1950s car called the Hornet made by the now defunct American car company Hudson 5. The announcer Darrell Cartrip is based off former 3 time Champion Nascar driver and nascar commentator Darrell Waltrip. 6. The other announcer Bob Cutlass is based off real life sports commentator Bob Costas
Bro this movie was the sole reason I got into Need for Speed- And why I love country- 🎵 Life is a highwayyyyyy and I’m gonna ride it all night loonng 🎵
One thing to keep in mind is that for each of the Cars movies, the year when the came out is the year in the universe as well, just like the MCU Also one thing i've always questioned about the Cars universe, does a car crash count as a murder and/or suicide
A lot OF things: This is NASCAR not F1 You change tires not because they will explode, but because the tire wear will affect your handling performance Arjun Maine was in F2 when he was sabotaged, he was sabotaged because he was doing too well and his teammate wanted the credit for himself.
This is NASCAR, which originated with the bootleggers back during Prohibition. Most every secondary character in this movie is voiced by a prominent racing figure, the character's name a play on their real name: Darrell Waltrip, Bob Costas, Kyle "King" Petty, Jeff Gordon, the list goes on and on. And they're weaving because the rubber in the tires is softer (and provides better traction) when it's hot, but it also has a tendency to wear away faster and break loose from the tires. In several scenes during the race, you can see these bits and pieces (called "marbles" because they act almost like literal marbles when they're loose) kick up.
1:43 Tiny correction, Dreamworks isn't with Disney. If anything, they're rivals. The concept of Dreamworks' Shrek was a more-or-less direct callout over how Disney does things.
11:53 one of my favorite shots of the movie is this one because it perfectly shows the theme of slowing down. As the camera pans left, the shot reveals that just like Lightning, the whole world is so focused on getting to places faster, they cut a mountain in half when they could've easily built the road a few meters to the left.
McQueen didn't fix the town's lights. The townsfolk were so impressed with his work on the road that they began sprucing up their shops, according to the audiobook. The traffic light was blinking yellow because there wasn't much traffic on the road but activated because of the tractors. The rocks on the track are most likely "marbles" - peelings from the cars' tyres.
5:13 the cars have to be going at speeds of nearly 200 miles an hour but during the caution their only allowed 70. So the swerving is to warm up the tires enough to get good traction on the restart.
I loved this movie growing up (still do), and when i had my son put this on for him. He was instantly hooked. I've seen this trilogy so many times because of him (and me). Your son would absolutely love these movies. You should definitely react to the other 2 movies. Keep up the great work Don!
Piston Cup is a knock off name of NASCAR in the old days called Winston Cup. The blue car I guess would have been famous driver Richard Petty. Want rocks on track it was as we call it marbles which is rubber that comes off tired during race and gathered outside the groove.
Those things on the sheriff's side near his wheels are called "curb feelers" and they were used on a lot of older cars around the 50's and I think 60's as well (Don't quote me on that). They alerted drivers if they got close to the curb. It's to prevent you from driving up onto it
The traffic light was always working fine. In smaller towns when there is not enough traffic to really warrant having "red lights" and "green lights", they might change it to just a flashing yellow. I believe that usually just means it turns into a regular 4-way stop, unless there are signs to signal otherwise. Like maybe yield instead of stop, or 2 ways stop and the other 2 yield.
They swerve to warm up new tires and they change tires because over time the rubber breaks down and it actually creates a groove that’s smoother than the rest of the track, the “rocks on the track” are bits of tire
Hey Don! Unrelated but since you begun watching Jurassic Park, here’s a watchlist for you in order: 1. Jurassic Park 2. Lost World: Jurassic Park 3. Jurassic Park 3 4. Jurassic World 5. Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom 6. Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous 7. Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous Hidden Adventure 8. Jurassic World: Dominion 9. (Not released yet), Jurassic World: Chaos Theory
I love how Disney and Pixar change some things depending on the region the movie is being viewed in. In Zootopia, the US, Canada, and France I believe have a Moose, China had a Panda, Japan had a Tanuki, Australia had a Koala, and Brazil had a Jaguar as the second New Anchor with the Snow Leopard. The voice actor for Harv in this movie was also changed in this one from the US and UK. Inside Out also had two (three offered) regional changes in it, one with Riley eating in a high chair, Japan viewers saw green peppers instead of broccoli, we see a game of football (soccer for US) instead of the normal hockey (this was only offered to some countries as some stuck with hockey), the third happened when Bing Bong reads a sign to Joy and Sadness that spelled Danger saying it was a shortcut, they not only translated it but reanimated Bing Bong to point to the letters from right to left to accommodate some languages instead of left to right.
So glad you reacted to this amazing movie! The whole series is me and my brothers favorite. Also, I'm from America, and the car harv was american, and I just found it cool that his character was given different voice actors in different copies 😊
Fun fact: the Director of this movie has confirmed that there were in fact humans in the Cars universe. But when cars became self driving and conscious.. the just cast the humans aside due to us being "dead weight". That explains all of the structures. edit: And the fact cars had doors and rearview mirrors.
Don, please do some research on racing. This movie is based on Nascar not F1. Tires are like shoes, compare it walking on grass to concrete. McQueen barely escaped Frank because he's on bumpy dirt and not smooth pavement. What doc did on the track is called drifting, turn right to go left is how you drift. The rocks on the track is called marbles. They are rubber balls from the tires of the race car wearing down which is why they have to change tires. A lap around most tracks is equal to a mile so after so many laps you have to change tires or they're going to blow.
I get that it's sad for the cars living in Radiator Springs that they're no longer relevant, but it's really hard to come up with a solution that doesn't end with, "sometimes that's just how life goes." Small towns without purpose get bypassed, factory workers are replaced with machines, paper companies become obsolete as more people go paperless. Sad, but it's how it goes. I don't see hanging onto a dying business in an empty town as any different from starting a horse grooming/farrier business in a major metropolitan area. Some things are useful in certain times and certain areas, some things are not.
The fact that me as an American never got to hear Jeremy Clarkson as the VA for Harv should be a war crime. He should have been the default voice actor for all English speaking countries
I like the way they did the part where McQueen arrived to Radiator Springs as we get two perspectives, a thief "hotrodder" according to the sheriff to a confused and scared race car who doesn't know where he is and more.
Cars swerve on slow laps to keep their tire temperatures up. Tires perform best in a "happy medium" temperature window so rubbing tires side to side creates friction which then creates heat giving you more grip.
Every time Bessie spits on the cars pulling her, (twice in the movie, once during the end credits) she makes laughing sounds, indicating that she maybe sentient, despite having no visible eyes.
*Incrível como acabei de ver o react da The Homies desse filme e o Don manda um react do mesmo filme 1 hora depois. Hoje é um dia abençoado pra maratonar youtubers assistindo Carros 😅*
One of the saddest moments a bout this movie is when sally tells the story about radiator springs. Even though radiator springs is a fictional town based on a real one the story she tells is actually true that happened to real towns on R66 Edit: the guy who voice was being repeated at the credit scene is John ratzenberger also known as cliff Calvin
fun fact: back when i saw this movie for the first time i was very little, so when mcqueen jumped over the car and stuck his big licker out. I used to get so scared due to how creepily long his tongue was
The whole injury thing happens a lot in sports too, it's american football, but there's a great movie about the dark side of american sports called 'Any Given Sunday', even if it's not for the channel, it's definitely worth the watch!
So, I watch a lot of nascar have for years. And allow me to shed some light on this movie (even if you don’t see this) firstly; NASCAR does have a cup series it’s a trophy cup not called piston just cup. Secondly; crew chiefs are pretty vital for the race. They make decisions on and off the track and are over the pit crew but the driver makes his own decisions out in the field. And they are loyal to the team so for them to be fired has to be a good reason. Like coaches in nfl or any other sport. Thirdly; tires so get worn and torn so that can create debris on the road and the hotter they get the worst the tire gets. So they change them to newer fresh tires. When mater was in the field outrunning McQueen it’s because mater has off-road tires not on road like McQueen stuck with slick racing tires. It’s true they make new generation cars every few years but I doubt the cars have feelings in our world😂
Knowing a lot about NASCAR you should also explain the contact between vehicles because I haven't seen anyone else who has. I know a little bit and that a certain amount of contact is allowed, usually referred to as "rubbing" but I'm sure the Chick Hicks level of interference would be sanctioned.
@@ronweber1402 for sure drivers get penalties and then drivers could choose to appeal that penalty. And then there’s a chance of retaliation from the opposing driver. But I wasn’t gonna dive deep into that topic of racing
Nascar which is what the racing in this movie is based on and Formula 1 are 2 different things. Thats exactly what this movie is about is Lightning being Himbled and i love it such good lessons in this movie
f1 has around 50 laps, what you was thinking about was prolly nascar, which has around 200 Edit: And this looks like its based off nascar just by the look of the cars
The thing with animated movies is you can't worry about logistics like how did they do this or that and trying to use logic you just have to roll with it and absorb the story.
