"Cars"!!! What a blast! The antics and animation combined with racing, speed, a love interest, and Paul Newman what more could a girl ask for? I loved it and my son, the quick and funny Caleb adored the show. He walked away with a new outlook on vehicles as well as a few choice phrases. His favorite is, "Come on mom, you know we're burning daylight." He is growing up so fast as you can see from the photo with Lightning at MGM. Caleb is the cute one, :) and my husband, Randy is the smiling one. These characters drove themselves and were fantastic. It was a thrill to see them before the movie and I would love to know the makings of these rigs.
The film was meant for kids and young adults but the story line entertains the adults taking them. Sally's Cozy Cone was delightful. Flo's V-8 adorable and the characters to each his own. I have my favorties and those of you that would like to take a stab at them and guess, please do so. I love details and to imagine myself sleeping in a safety cone with the car of my dreams, it was downright revvyyy. The many intricate details along with the correct racing jargon made it most pleasurable for those of us who are race fans. I almost cheered a few times but caught myself. Walking out of the theatre with Caleb's hand in mine I thought to myself, "This is something he will cherish and remember forever. It is also the thing that dreams are made of." Lots has happened to me this year that has and could dampen my spirit, but there is one thing that cannot be taken away from me and that is my dreams. Lightning had tunnel vision and no room for others, but he found out what living is all about.... and it is not speed. So Boogity Boogity Boogity race fans and if you have not seen the movie yet...Get on the highway and remember, it is not always about where you end up, but how you get there. Drive safely and I'll leave the lights on.
