We might discuss your question on our podcast. Yes, this means that we’ve run out of ideas for episodes and are too lazy to do research.
Edit: Thanks for the questions everyone. We didn’t have time to answer all of them on the show but I’ll try to answer all of them on here. The episode probably won’t be out for over a month since we’ve got a backlog of editing to do.
Please do yourself a favor and watch Cars 2 first and watch your brain become filled with cottage cheese as you try to comprehend the logistics of the Cars universe.
Let me put it this way:
Cars 1 is a movie set in a car-centric country, about cars, about car culture, about car infrastructure, and about car racing. Making the protagonists be cars makes sense.
Cars 2 is a sequel to Cars 1 and has zero reason to make the protagonists all be cars.
