Misha 00:26
Welcome to Much Abu About Nothing. This is a podcast where we discuss and rate animated theatrical release Disney films using a rigorous rating system based on absolutely nothing. I'm one of your hosts Misha,
Tyler 00:42
and I'm another one of your hosts Tyler and gang. We've We've done it.
Misha 00:47
We we torture ourselves so you don't have to. We
Tyler 00:52
didn't. We didn't learn our lesson after Christmas Carol. We thought we've survived the worst of it. We can persevere. We didn't learn our goddamn lesson after bolt. And here we are now staring at a again, staring at
Misha 01:09
the abyss. Like
Tyler 01:11
Icarus having flown too close to the sun. Our hubris has tripped us. And we we are humbled watch. We watch cars, cars, a Pixar film from 2006 I think they started making 2005 Because it was like a 20 year anniversary thing. But I think it was released in 2006.
Misha 01:31
It was I have 2006 as the
Tyler 01:35
for this. And yeah, it's the first of a trilogy. Nice. Very good. Very good. First of a trilogy. And boy howdy. Let's let's get into it. We
Misha 01:48
All Long three weeks.
Tyler 01:52
So we mentioned last week at the tail end that like my wonderful wife had pipe to tail. Which we're gonna get into but like these cars, these are anthropomorphic cars.
Misha 02:05
Wait, well, wait, wait, wait, wait. I have so. Okay, we'll
Tyler 02:09
get into it. Yeah, but my wife last week was like sick like I think out of the you know, sweet kindness of her heart was like why don't you just like watch three of them and do one episode for the whole for three of them but would have been I
Misha 02:23
don't know if I had to. I took a lot of breaks during this watching sesh because I've never done that for any other monad even I didn't even do this for Christmas Carol. I walked away and I said you know what work is better than watching this movie my day job and I just walked away I was like yep, I'd rather go do other
Tyler 02:47
Yeah, I didn't give myself enough time to do that. I would have loved like a break to like go walk outside. But I didn't realize this goes as long as it is so I didn't give myself enough time.
Misha 02:59
Why Why?
Tyler 03:00
Why is car Why is cars. So before we get into the Misha is wonderful. Plot summary. We've read these movies for those who haven't listened before. Welcome to the podcast. We rate these movies on originality story animation, music and sound protagonist sidekick villain henchmen strong female lead bipoc representation slash portrayal and fun factor. And then they might get the movies might get negative points if they don't sit right or positive points for effervescence, that Durkheimian Disney magic, giving it a total score out of 110. Now, what was this movie cars all about? All right.
Misha 03:41
We're gonna be talking a lot about that. What do I think at some point? What? That's a very good question. What is this movie that so what happens in this movie? Yeah, is there are cars who are sentient beings. self driving self aware cars. There's this. It's a there's a race car named Lightning McQueen. And Lightning McQueen is in a race played by Owen Wilson. Wow, first, uh, wow. Worst character? Of all time.
Tyler 04:34
Yeah, not even the worst character in this movie. So let's like, hold the phone
Misha 04:38
away. Okay, okay. Okay, we'll get to this. Okay, so he's racing. He's a horribly arrogant and I will say arrogance is my least favorite quality and of all time in any being human car. I don't fucking care. So it's like first person Listen, and really don't understand. Okay, there's this race. The there's a three way tie. Yeah. And then he's so arrogant. He's like, I don't need a team of pit crew. Okay, there's a three way tie. Then there's the Piston Cup. That's actually my favorite joke from the movie.
Tyler 05:27
Oh my God, I didn't even get it. It sent over my head.
Misha 05:30
Yeah, they said it once they made a joke about it. And I was like, Okay, I like this. I'm like a pissed. Yeah, in cup, like up to a cup.
Tyler 05:40
That told I totally like,
Misha 05:43
the the ground play of this world. And there's a three way tie. So the three winners get to race, which I don't understand the rules. But these three tide winners get to race in the Piston Cup.
Tyler 06:00
Might I might I clarify this? In the beginning, it was the Piston Cup. But because there was a three way tie, they had an unprecedented Oh, US hybrid. Yeah. Piston
Misha 06:11
Cup. Okay, two piston cups. So they have to get to I don't know why, but they have to get to LA to do a second Piston Cup. On the way. So Lightning McQueen is the protagonist is being transported by a truck. The truck falls asleep. Lightning McQueen falls out of the back of the truck ends up in a rural town called Radiator Springs. And then it's like a rural town out west somewhere. He's like, Ooh, they're dirty and poor. Tyler, you could you can get bored with Lightning McQueen, about this. Tyler hates poor people, and then is stuck there for what feels like four fucking years of my life. That's it and then learns some lessons, falls in love with a blue car, then makes his way has to fix the town, fixes the town makes his way to LA doesn't win, because he stops to help a car that crashed. And then somebody else wins. And then he goes back to live in the town to gentrify it. Mm hmm. Yeah. And yeah. Is that kind of the movie?
Tyler 07:39
That's kind of the movie we can get into the Meteor. A lot. Yeah, we can get into that with story. But yeah, that's as far as like an overall thing that's, that gets most of the mess. I will just clarify that. Haha, it's a funny joke. I don't hate for people moving on. You're gonna add, Joe. We can get there. We can get there with story but first off originality? Or do you want to do do do.
Misha 08:12
I feel like okay, I have so many questions about the story. I think we should just like gloss over everything super fast and then get to the story. Like get to my big burning questions.
Tyler 08:25
Okay. I think originality we can go quick, because there's not a lot. Yeah, talk about.
Misha 08:31
Its original. I don't think of any societies that are all car based.
Tyler 08:35
That's true.
Misha 08:38
Oh, wait, this is B. Is this based on Steve McQueen? Yeah,
Tyler 08:41
that's there are many like, nudge nudge wink wink nod, like for sure.
Misha 08:47
All right,
Tyler 08:48
but the thing that Okay, so the move like actually, let's just jump back to this plot a little bit. So it's all about this big shot. Arrogant Big Shot landing in a small town and learning the meaning of like, true American values or like community or family or whatever. Really, with the backdrop of cars, but it doesn't do it in a fast and furious, really good little family centered way but Boehner gets a tailpipe Boehner which is also back to back to it's so confusing this really but um, no the back to originality though because we're gonna get into like you
Misha 09:26
aged like at least six years why I feel
Tyler 09:30
like I felt like what Yeah, Julian Glover if that's his name at the end of Last Crusade when he just like ages really quickly after drinking from the Royal
Misha 09:38
Mint yeah turns into a crumbly skeleton with crumbly skeleton or crumbling
Tyler 09:42
skeleton boy after this goddamn movie. And we have two more to go. Okay.
Misha 09:49
Shake it out shake.
Tyler 09:51
Shaking it out a little bit. Originally, so when I watched this movie, yes, I have never seen a movie in a world completely. Vehicles. Made of with, with references human made things but with no humans in it. Wait.
Misha 10:05
Okay, we'll get we'll get to that I have any questions. So, but let's just speed through I think we need to speed through Yeah, everything else and then like sort of jump back to story because
Tyler 10:21
because this yeah cuz there's a lot that is just like we don't need to go in order right? Yeah okay and there are a lot of things that like it's we know SPOILER ALERT gang but like some of these categories are definitely gonna get ones like strong female lead so we can just you know cut to the chase here let's talk about okay boom
Misha 10:39
well there is a strong female lead on female
Tyler 10:41
leads one next. I do want to mention some of it originated because watching this movie I'm like yes I've never seen this world in this weird world building that John Lasseter has decided in his people to do. But it wasn't original. I didn't feel as original how many times I can't name a bunch of movies, but how many times have you seen big shot tap city person goes to small town and learns the meaning of Christmas or learns the meaning of community. Like this is humility. This is Footloose. This is dark Hollywood. Michael J. Fox Movie. This is a half of the hallmark
Misha 11:20
for the I've watched Footloose for the first time recently, and I don't know what you're talking about.
Tyler 11:26
Well, yeah, he I guess he goes there and he changes the town. But he goes he's a city Cape
Misha 11:31
Town is so this is the opposite. Because the town is like yeah, we need to learn from city but in cars. It's like oh booth fast paced life. No, I want slow. Yeah, I have light pollution. Yeah, have you seen pollution?
Tyler 11:49
I haven't seen in a while but it's like Michael J Fox is like a big shot Doctor Who wrecks a fence and gets punished and has to community service in a small town. The plot is eerily similar to cars actually. Now now that I think about it. And I just feel like I've seen this before and like made for TV movies on Disney are like Hallmark movies like Christmas prints, but not that one. Like Like, someone needs to learn the true meaning of whatever I mean even fucking Christmas Carol for Christ's sakes to Yeah, I don't know. It's not like it's not like a one originality, I just didn't find it very original, I found it to be kind of a tired trope of a story. Anybody out there, send me some email us with like other movies that you can think of that are like this, because I know they're out there. Just the names aren't coming to my head, my brain right now. tip of my tongue. But I would give this something like, like, something similar to like, Brother Bear. Like it's like a story that's hitting a lot of beats that have been told before. I feel like it's got to be a four because instead of a five because it's like, I don't know, like Brother Bear. It's like the same sort of story tropes with a different skin on top of that kind of thing.
Misha 12:57
So yeah, you mean a different rap? Like, you know, car reps a different
Tyler 13:02
Bronx?
Misha 13:05
Got them here in the Bronx. Yeah, or Yeah, like a car wrapped. And then walk across the street just right across street and go grab yourself a beer at our local brewery. Oh,
Tyler 13:15
nice. Is a car wrap the same thing as getting like a new paint job or?
Misha 13:18
No? Tyler, what
Tyler 13:20
is a car rep.
Misha 13:21
Whoa, a car app is like a literal sticker wrap thing. But you can get like cool, like hologram and a holographic shimmer. You know, what do you call it? It's like, if you hit a certain light, it's like purple. But then you drive a little on screen and like,
Tyler 13:40
ah, yeah, so that's what is that? That's not like a holograph like or metallic.
Misha 13:44
Like you can get metallic cult like they're usually metallic. It's very cool. Maybe because I'm just used to seeing a lot of wrapped cars around here.
Tyler 13:55
Right? So originality, I think like a,
Misha 13:58
I think a four Do you want to do? Yeah, that's fine. Okay, so
Tyler 14:02
I'm gonna put a four in there. Are you going to do it? You're doing it and the one for strong female lead because we already covered that.
Misha 14:09
Let's skip story for now. Because it's gonna be it's gonna be a big one. The bulk of what I have to say. Yeah.
Tyler 14:16
Okay, animations.
Misha 14:18
I was very surprised at how much I liked this animation. Yeah, I
Tyler 14:24
thought the animation was really good.
Misha 14:25
I thought it was excellent.
Tyler 14:26
I like there are things that I didn't like about it, but that's more just like the story like why do cars have tongues? And why does the I
Misha 14:36
had the exact same question but I think that falls into story like all of the questions I have. Yeah, yeah. What? Yes.
Tyler 14:47
But like the the use of light like the I think it's called, like Ray tracing like the way that the light was was done in this was really beautiful.
Misha 14:56
Opening with the sheen on The car on Lightning McQueen. The scenery like the neon lights, the road like Oh, I thought it was really good. Yeah,
Tyler 15:09
I thought it so too I thought it was I mean this is very strong Pixar like doing what they really yes do best i would give it a very high score. Yeah, I agree actually I agree. i There are things I didn't like about like the landscape I didn't like how like the mountains were shaped like cars, but it still looked beautiful. Like the this I hate car racing, but the race was like they did. They made. They made the like, speed of the cars look really exciting.
Misha 15:35
Physics felt kind of real. Yeah.
Tyler 15:38
I think as high as nine. I was gonna say nine times
Misha 15:43
hate to say it. No, I think so. No. Because I
Tyler 15:48
know, but I think like it deserves a nine like
Misha 15:50
lost. We lost what? 12 years of our life. Yeah, lives separate lives together. Because we're friends. Whatever. Oh, you say it. I have aged terribly since watching this movie this morning. And yeah, it's my jacket. But the animation was excellent. I think and I am very mad to give it a NINE and a high score. But I think we should. Yeah,
Tyler 16:18
nine I still don't think it gets to Bambi level. Good. But nine. Yeah, correct. Okay, moving on to music and sound. Now this is our old buddy Randy Newman coming back. Yeah, and I did let's put the
Misha 16:35
and a lot of covers Yeah. of previous Yeah, so Okay. I have opinions that I think you might be surprised by.
Tyler 16:45
Okay. Let's jump into that because I didn't like the first song. I didn't like the last song the really most you like sort of like, country song at the end? I didn't like it in
Misha 16:59
sync. Oh,
Tyler 17:01
I thought you're gonna yell at me. Okay, sake. And I know.
Misha 17:05
It's like, I'm Joey fat one. Joey
Tyler 17:09
fat one that Backstreet Boys. That's backstreet Fatone. Not fat one. I think it's fun. Yeah, but you don't spell it? s a t o n e.
Misha 17:26
Okay, so there's wide. I'll be Joey fat wad. If it makes you feel better,
Tyler 17:31
Joey. Sir, wherever you are. Justin Timberlake
Misha 17:35
was okay. And not getting an apology for me. Justin Timberlake was in NSYNC. Yeah. Yeah. So we're like that for this category.
Tyler 17:46
Or you can say we're like the brothers of Car Talk who make an appearance in this. I
Misha 17:51
was so excited about that clicking clack, the tappet
Tyler 17:54
brothers. Yeah. They were in it. Yeah. Yeah. So I didn't like I didn't I didn't like even the covers of old classics like route 66. I didn't like any of that. I thought it was all bad. I thought it was all awful. But paradoxically, I thought Randy Newman's score was totally okay. And it was better than his work and A Bug's Life. I thought it was pretty good.
Misha 18:20
I will say I thought the music fit very well. And while I don't like any of those songs, I thought it worked really well for the movie. The the covers or the score. Or both the covers? Yeah, there was this one song called our town where they were trying to make you feel sad. Like, this. Time and Place doesn't exist anymore. And we should feel bad about it. Yeah, I didn't like that song. Because it was like, This is stupid. But that's more along the story. Like yeah, like it because of the story. I thought the music was good for this shitty movie. Yeah, I
Tyler 19:12
thought like, yeah, it's good.
Misha 19:14
It felt right. I
Tyler 19:15
agree with that. I do agree with that. And I thought the covers
Misha 19:17
like, I don't like the songs originally that much. But I thought the covers were okay. Compared to the original verse like, okay for a movie for this movie. Listen, I had just like something. I felt like
Tyler 19:34
that's what animation was for but
Misha 19:37
true. I didn't think the movie was as bad as you do. Did while watching it.
Tyler 19:49
I mean, it's like, yeah, I agree with you. I agree with Randy
Misha 19:54
Newman did a good job with the score because I was surprised when I saw his name in the credits because I was like, oh, That's it. The score was better. Yeah.
Tyler 20:02
I agree with that. I think the score was good. And I think you're totally right about the songs fitting the film. Like, like before it before it came up. Life is a high I knew that life is a highway song was god damn movie. Sure,
Misha 20:15
like how many car songs are there? They're all stupid. But so is this movie. So if you're gonna make the stupid movie about cars, great.
Tyler 20:25
So what do you think and as far as like, How high do you want to go? I mean, like,
Misha 20:29
like better than middle like six. That's what I was thinking six. I
Tyler 20:34
think six score for this. We're going to Yeah, yeah. Okay, I think seven sevens a bit too much. Yeah. So sevens
Misha 20:44
too high in our rating system. Seven is good. Six is just like she just passed.
Tyler 20:50
Yeah, and I think this was yeah, it was okay. It was. It was pretty good. Nick did his job. So yeah. protagonist. So, okay,
Misha 20:59
I listen. If I could give this protagonist a zero I would.
Tyler 21:09
Wow. Even though he does learn in the end, he doesn't fucking learn anything.
Misha 21:13
He does. I guess he does. Yeah, winning isn't everything. winning
Tyler 21:17
isn't everything he does learn friendship is important. Friendships important needs a team teamwork. I shouldn't objectify the Porsche lady. I should treat her like a human being by human beings not a car being. Yeah. I really didn't like Lightning McQueen. And I do like oh, and Wilson. Like as a actor, usually. She's not a great actor, but I just like can't help love. Love him a weirdo? No, stop. He's
Misha 21:43
so obnoxious.
Tyler 21:45
Yeah, you're kind of right. I mean, I think I just like him, because he's in a bunch of Wes Anderson movies. And I
Misha 21:51
like Wes Anderson movies. And I feel like oh, again. Okay. We like need some weirdo Normie who's annoying to be in Wes Anderson movie. That's what I feel like. And there's no Normie like, he's, he's a Normie. But like, just weird. Rather than a weirdo. Who's good.
Tyler 22:09
It's his voice. I just can't I love it. I just can't. It's just so it's just such a such a. It's such a meme now, obviously, but like, yeah, they're like Skyrim mods where like, every time your horse moves, it goes wow. Like, that's just love that stuff. There's also one with Tommy was oh, it's like, Oh, Hi, Mark. Every time a dragon pops up, anyway. Yeah, he I think he should get one. He sucks.
Misha 22:35
Yes, thank you one next he Yeah, he
Tyler 22:38
like Yeah. Oh, yeah. I'm not gonna I'm not gonna like but actually or whatever. I'm just like, keep does learn and grow. But like,
Misha 22:45
Should we give him a to for learning and growing?
Tyler 22:47
Yeah, maybe we should? Because it does. He does change and that's the I mean, no. Okay, we're gonna because we're gonna really know the story. So at the
Misha 22:58
end, he's like, Oh, I'm making us the Lightning McQueen headquarters.
Tyler 23:01
Yeah, to try to put the town on the map. Again. She
Misha 23:05
goes, there goes the neighborhood. So let's bring him back down to one because he sucks tailpipe. Okay, next. Okay.
Tyler 23:11
side kicks, which is Mater I think was his name or motto. I think it was Mater. The tow truck.
Misha 23:19
Couldn't talk.
Tyler 23:21
Mater, Moto, voiced by Larry the Cable Guy.
Misha 23:25
Did you see that? At the end of in the credits of this movie. The caterpillar from A Bug's Life was dead. Yeah. I mean, that's the caterpillar.
Tyler 23:36
Yeah, I didn't see that. Yeah.
Misha 23:40
I was trying to like
Tyler 23:43
it was the weirdest way to say yeah, yeah.
Misha 23:51
Anyway,
Tyler 23:52
sidekick Larry, the Cable Guy.
Misha 23:55
Doing his whole shtick want to talk about it? Or something about it? You talk about it.
Tyler 24:02
I think he deserves a one. Here's why. I find him horribly annoying. He's not funny. Maybe when I was a kid, I would have put this sort of like this accent is is me telling you that I'm a dumb character is classist and wrong and doesn't belong.
Misha 24:21
Thank you. I thought, Okay. I was worried by like saying, Oh, this character deserves a one. But I wouldn't be the one who's classist and whatever else you said. But
Tyler 24:35
no, I think no, I don't think it's just do that. Yeah, it's not we don't like him because he he is a character. It's like the movie is trying to be like, here's the comic relief a a hillbilly or whatever, like the right word. hicker.
Misha 24:53
Okay, it called hillbilly hell. Lightning McQueen does
Tyler 24:56
so I think I don't know what Larry DOM does. But you did. Yeah. Yeah. Like, I feel like this whole shtick is like just offensive to people or should be. Yeah. One. And he's boring. He's like, not interesting at all. He doesn't know. He does have heart which Lightning McQueen does not have in the beginning but but any any other person. And they got a lot of like big names to be in this goddamn movie. Any other person from that town could have been this character. So that's really like the only reason he's in it. It's because he's got this whole a
Misha 25:31
lot of characters in this movie and watching it. For this podcast, I was really confused as to who I was supposed to pay attention to. Yeah, because the whole time I was like, Okay, who's this character? Are they coming back? Like, what is this? I need to know their name. And looking up the cast and none of them come back. Yeah.
Tyler 25:53
And you could I guess someone could make the argument that like, all the people in the town are the side kicks too, but like,
Misha 26:00
Mater, I think is the like, he's the main one. Yeah, because he takes him out to the Okay, well, yeah. cow farm. I don't even know. We'll talk about that. Yeah, story.
Tyler 26:13
I'm getting exhausted. But yeah, I think you're right that like they didn't when there are too many names and too many, like, quirky characters this time, but none of them will.
Misha 26:26
Like actor cameos, which we didn't need kids don't need.
Tyler 26:31
Yeah. Oh, no need like Cheech Marin as a like low rider. We don't need George Carlin as a hippie. We don't. I mean, it's for us fine. But like, if you're going to introduce these characters give them like more than just a stereotypical one. dimensionless Yes, like the hippie stoner Volkswagen van and the drill sergeant, the drill sergeant that is like saluting the American flag, which is just like what fucking world is this? Yeah. movie
Misha 27:00
so much. Okay. Villain. Lightning McQueen. Like right who are
Tyler 27:08
we supposed to think is the villain in this is it supposed
Misha 27:10
Lightning McQueen? But the whole time beginning to end but I don't think the movie is trying to make mustache mustache I don't know the character's name green mustache green mustache
Tyler 27:21
man. And by man I mean car because this movie is it's. It's voiced by Michael Keaton.
Misha 27:29
Yeah. Why? Oh,
Tyler 27:32
my God. Chick Hicks. Is his name Chick Hicks.
Misha 27:37
Are we so much? What? Why have Michael Keaton Michael Caine, legendary Michael Keaton play moustache car. I mean, anybody?
Tyler 27:48
There are so many
Misha 27:49
six Chick Hicks chicks kegs. And oh, did you see at one point they call them chick magnet. And I was like, that's disgusting. Is he? I'm at a magnet himself. Is what does that mean? Anyway? Okay, one for villain. Because there is none.
Tyler 28:06
Yeah, the villain is like the I
Misha 28:09
mean, he lived in that town for five years at minimum, and there was no villain. So one in the town for five years of my life of your life, human years so far. I don't know how long he was actually there.
Tyler 28:25
Five days. He was only five days. henchman is also a one.
Misha 28:30
Yeah. Strong Female Lead we talked about. Okay. Let's get to bipoc representation portrayal.
Tyler 28:37
I mean, there's Cheech Marin. Yep.
Misha 28:41
And Jennifer Lewis, who plays flow who owns the diner. Get into that with the story. I'm not really sure.
Tyler 28:51
It's supposed to be like a diner but they but it's a gas station because that's what
Misha 28:55
right. And they're playing caricatures of. So Jennifer Lewis is black. Cheech Marin is Hispanic. They're playing caricatures of what Okay, maybe not whatever. I am glad that they at least have an throughout not zero people of color playing cars, but it's pretty bad. Because they're fucking cars. Yeah,
Tyler 29:18
it's just yeah, everything's assault. So back to like the this cars the hippie, this cars, the drill sergeant because of like, what's the car? caricatures? Right. Yeah. And so this car is a low rider with like, rims. That's the Latino guy and like, so yeah, I don't know. Maybe it shouldn't be. I don't know. Maybe it shouldn't be. It should be you close to one. Yeah. So okay,
Misha 29:39
do too, if they didn't if they were just characters, and voice actors, but it was like, oh, it's like they made the movie. And they're like, Oh, we got this little writer. We need to find somebody who's Hispanic. Oh, we've got this like sassy Cafe gas station. I'm not really sure what it is. Maybe now maybe not. I don't know. Let's stick with the two.
Tyler 30:05
Yeah, I think they did not put a lot of thought into this. And they didn't like they didn't like it felt
Misha 30:10
like white people deciding like who would be Latino who would be black? Yeah. Rather than just having black or people of color actors. Yeah. I want to show we go back down to No, let's do a two let's do two.
Tyler 30:28
Yeah, maybe two for just because it gets a little bit all white thing. Yes. Yeah. Just it's a depressing amount of something. Okay,
Misha 30:36
let's see for fun factor after we do story. Same thing. I'm going to just ask you questions. And
Tyler 30:43
okay, I like this.
Misha 30:44
Yeah. Okay. Where are the humans? Yeah. So,
Tyler 30:53
theory, but I'm very confused because it's the word we're supposed to think that the world is just cars and planes, and helicopters. But who writes the newspaper that like is has the headline of Crash Bandicoot was named Dr. Paul Newman's character, duck, duck, duck down? Yeah, whatever.
Misha 31:15
The thing that kids watch about a girl Doctor doc
Tyler 31:19
Gordon, or something. Hudson Doc Hudson. Yeah. Hi, Hudson, Doc Hudson, who was earlier the Hudson Hornet, the fabulous Hudson Hornet, which actually was a real car, apparently, and NASCAR racing. But there's like a newspaper clipping of him crashing. And it's like, who wrote that goddamn newspaper? Who? Where are the humans? And okay, what's your theory? Have
Misha 31:43
it I have a theory. I think this movie takes place in the future when self driving cars become sentient, and have destroyed all the humans and you can't see inside of them. And humans are like to do get in my car and then one by one, they eat them and alive. Okay, as you can see inside. So it's kind of a do that, until all the humans are gone. But I have more questions. That
Tyler 32:17
but how does that explain their windshield eyes and their weird mouths with teeth and tongues because you don't need
Misha 32:25
those for a car to see. Why do you need windshields? windshields are for humans to see out. But if you're self driving,
Tyler 32:32
yeah, but we see their them as like we don't see them as windshields. We see them as eyeballs. Yeah,
Misha 32:37
they're sentient. They can be but how
Tyler 32:41
did they develop those eyes? How did they develop the mouth instead of just being a sentence?
Misha 32:46
Okay, this is how our humans are like, Oh, we're so tired of working. We got to make robots to do all the jobs for us. And they make a robot to build the car. And then the robot is like, I'm gonna make them sentient. And then they start producing themselves to have eyes. And mouths and tongues. Okay,
Tyler 33:11
okay. Here's my counter idea. This is a world that they thought would be cool, but they didn't really think it through. So they like mentioned. So they fucking have Los
Misha 33:25
Angeles meta, you're down to meta, I want you to think about like, get inside the world of wanna, like, sure. Okay, I can agree this movie is shitty, right? The people who made this movie did not think it through. But I want you to pretend like we're inside the world of cars. It's sucking a life force out of us because the cars want to kill us. And they're draining our life force to take over the world. Okay, fast forward to we're in the future where there are no humans and cars, and only cars
Tyler 33:59
and then you fast forward again, because we're in the future. We're in a future
Misha 34:03
just get to the human part. Now comment on the human part because I have so many other world. I can
Tyler 34:10
add my brain is hurting. I can't like Okay, so if if this is if the world is like a future in which humans have been devoured and the world has been replaced by machines, then it's also you have to think it's that plus it's also one step forward, where they're nostalgic about their 1950s route 66 They have,
Misha 34:32
like, ingrained memory of, of past cars that are still existing, right? Like we have cars from that era. We have fucking model A's and Model T's that are in their frames, have their memories and histories within themselves and can share that knowledge of the 50s With the current cars this
Tyler 35:02
also might be a this might be like a sort of Brother Bear slash Freaky Friday scenario where like the humans are cars and some weird experiment gone wrong or too many nucular microwaves. And people have become cars and they just don't really sell. They still listen to Hendrix like the hippie Volkswagen. Like talks about Jimi Hendrix. No,
Misha 35:27
that's the car wagon. Oh, no, no, no, I don't think humans have anything to do with this. Not our conscience. consciousnesses.
Tyler 35:39
Okay, all right. This is just we can't we can't get back. I'm literally going insane thinking about how people fit into this because it's just more
Misha 35:48
questions. It's okay. So have you noticed all of the animals not just humans have been replaced by cars? The flies are bugs the cows are tractors? Are the bugs
Tyler 36:05
and the controllers? The bull was the turned into the harvester combine thing? Yeah. Are
Misha 36:11
they smart? Are they intelligent? The way that we would define and who as humans would define intelligence, and do those cars view them as like lesser beings and other pets. Are the animals in the car world? Like can they say they can't speak because fucking tractors just Moo? Yeah, okay. What are they harvesting? For? Who are the harvesting food for who?
Tyler 36:44
Biofuel? I don't know like some biodiesel. Maybe it's what they're going for their? Again, they didn't fucking think it through. And also there if I can clarify they weren't flies. They were beetles because how hard they were. Because this movie is just a fucking, like, 50 year old white man like elbowing you in the ribs? Like get it? Car joke. Breaking news, spelled with breaks like a car.
Misha 37:07
So okay, now are those tractors? Owned by a farmer? No,
Tyler 37:15
they're owned by now. There's no farmer or no people who
Misha 37:19
owns you know how cows have owners like farmers. Yeah. Who owns the crackers? Frank
Tyler 37:28
the contract Frank the harvester? He's the standard for the farmer.
Misha 37:33
He's a bull equivalent. Yeah. It doesn't make
Tyler 37:37
it doesn't make a lot of sense. And there's like a there's a bank that sponsors chick kicks.
Misha 37:44
There's a big I have a question about Oh, speaking of bank, what is their currency? Yeah, because we do Guido we're talking about selling tires. Yeah, okay. And then lightning you're
Tyler 37:55
selling hands to people are selling legs to people because
Misha 37:59
and Lightning McQueen says I get mine for free which I was like wait a second. So what's the currency of this world? Yeah, and when before lightning no answer Tell me Tell me Tyler what is the currency of this world?
Tyler 38:14
Look, it's like Soul coins or something. It's something like something in the in the gas that like can be transferred via Oh. smooching or like, fluid exchange. Where
Misha 38:26
does the gas come from?
Tyler 38:29
Dinosaurs because look this so this world building is fucking fucked up like it just in any Okay, here. Let's go back to your animal thing really quick because yeah, all the animals are machines also, but then the head of the
Misha 38:46
company blip the blimp can talk the blimp can talk
Tyler 38:50
yeah, so there is like a fair few players some are animals some are not animals in our
Misha 38:57
Okay, by the way, if we're saying cars are like racing cars are humans humans are animals. So rephrase that?
Tyler 39:04
Well, the tractors are kind of like cows in this right? So yeah, but
Misha 39:08
you said animals like humans aren't animals. They're all animals.
Tyler 39:12
Yeah, yeah, that's your to me. I misspoke. But okay, but back to that though. The I like
Misha 39:16
to correct people and say that humans are animals. The knobby running around naked No, we know when it shouldn't we want as we go. I mean, humans are ugly. I don't want to see it right. I don't like where we've come as well. Anyway, that's a different topic.
Tyler 39:37
I would say that I I agree with you mostly but except for the part where we should all be running around that
Misha 39:42
because if we never work clothes in the first place you wouldn't have a problem with
Tyler 39:47
- Yeah, but that's that I live in a world where like, I do have a problem with it now and I don't want to see my own Naked running around going on the metro. Like my my jingle like hitting some old lady might disagree. I think she'd probably agree with me. But back to my I have a really important animal question. That probably
Misha 40:07
agrees with me. I'm not saying I want to see you running around with your jiggly bits hanging out. I'm just saying all animals should be. Okay, okay,
Tyler 40:19
let's get back to cut back to my question. So the tractors are talking about Tyler's jiggling. Let's stop talking about my ham hawks and get back to brass tacks which is this goddamn stupid movie? The, the tractors or cows Right?
Misha 40:33
Or grass tracks. That's what they say this girl's like getting mad. They doubt
Tyler 40:39
we are off the rails. If there were trains in this universe, we're off the rails.
Misha 40:42
There are trains was there travel? Yeah, that was a train Yeah, we sing the train and the train we would
Tyler 40:51
win beat the train and that yeah, as the drain if you know what I mean. Head the head of I've got to get this out. Like or I'm going to fucking lose it. The guy like that. I thought that was great. No, it's good. It's just a mind losing my mind because this text is aimless text. I think the owner of Dinoco the company, China co dynaco. The owner of that company is a car but he's got a pair of long horns on the front of his car. Oh, that's from the old time. From the old time. Okay, when animals were a thing. Yeah, good luck. Okay. All right. I guess that's the
Misha 41:33
best rich because he's very rich, right? Like, Dynamo is the pinnacle of society. Right? It's like look, we've dominated the Earth. We've cars have dominated the Earth. Wow. Dynamo is saying like we have done it. I am so rich. This is like the number one company in the world that every car wants to be part of. And I'm so rich. I have long horns on my car, which is from life and then like
Tyler 42:12
all of these so then if that is the case if this is like way in the future humans are gone. i It's hilarious and super disturbing that these cars like everything is like a shout out back to the humans. Like there's a J limo instead of Jay Leno. There's like a there's like a Mario
Misha 42:30
right in the face to like, Schumacher for dominating Earth. Yeah. But is speaking of planet Earth. There are plants in this movie. pollinates the plants? Look,
Tyler 42:44
you're you're blown the lid off this thing, but the answer is lazy. worldbuilding Okay, also I love how someone else meaning of this ship movie when Lightning McQueen is giving his like, in the beginning when he's giving his like half assed like sponsorship speech and someone yells Freebird I fucking love that that's great.
Misha 43:06
I'm so do frequently didn't notice and I still don't think I care.
Tyler 43:11
Yeah, and so I in my notes are states exist, cities exist countries exist. Like Japan. There's a Japanese do Yes.
Misha 43:19
Patient because it's the near future. It's not like a million years. It's like they've just maybe like 50 years ago. Humans have gone so there's still a history of human civilization and animals for them to like, be proud of ruining so how
Tyler 43:38
do you how do you how do you explain in your in your explanation? How do you explain the SUV who's like, a war veteran who salutes the flag? And does revelry like revolution?
Misha 43:50
That's an old car. Okay, it's like 50 years from today. Oh from 2006 Okay, that car still exists and it has I said it has an its frame or did it fight for the human story? Yeah, it's just like brainwashed a little bit it's like personality still there from when it like originally fought with humans for humans. And then it like became sentient because was given this ability by robot overlord. Oh, speaking of overlord I have another question for you. At one point, the truck Mac says thank the manufacturer capital T capital M Thank the manufacturer. You're alive. Like thank God, who is the manufacturer?
Tyler 44:37
Good question. And the the the traveling tourists couple to get our last at some point the wife says, like Richard
Misha 44:45
Kind and that redheaded lady with the beehive McLeod. I don't think she always looks like that. But her
Tyler 44:51
last name is McClurg I love her. She was in what was the other movie? She was in A Bug's Life. Yeah, she was in A Bug's Life. Oh, yeah.
Misha 44:58
There's a lot of crossover. They explicitly tell us in the credits,
Tyler 45:03
she says like bank Chrysler, or something like that. She says Chrysler instead of Christ at the end, so Okay, so at McLaren, the
Misha 45:12
so do you think Chrysler is the son of the manufacturer manufacturer?
Tyler 45:17
Yeah.
Misha 45:18
Who is the manufacturer?
Tyler 45:21
This is like, this is
Misha 45:24
a human that like, this is what I think. I think it's Elon Musk. Okay.
Tyler 45:29
I was gonna say this is like a this is like, Henry Ford's like, what? He's fever. Yeah.
Misha 45:36
Elon Musk is in space and he's dead. His body is just floating around somewhere. Yeah, but the first sentient car that he builds is a Chrysler. This would have to be a crate who's the CEO of
Tyler 45:52
Chrysler. Oh, wait. Okay, so wait a second though. Manufacturer, man. You fax for
Misha 45:57
Chrysler? I have news for you. Her name is Christine. Fuel. Chris gasoline fuel. F e u e ll fuel
Tyler 46:09
with the current Oh, here it
Misha 46:11
says Shawn, our good all good. Now I'm confused.
Tyler 46:16
Is this the current head or we are so lost? By the way? She
Misha 46:21
owns Fiat. I think this is correct. So Christine fuel
Tyler 46:27
Whoa, manufacturer. Whoa, man, woman. Whoa,
Misha 46:31
man. Yeah, I think Christine fuel is the manufacturer. She creates the sentient car that then creates a rest like this robot car. That creates all other sentient cars that decide cars need to dominate earth. Because for too long, humans have been driving cars. It's time for cars to drive themselves and drive humans to extinction.
Tyler 47:03
Hmm, that should be the tagline of this movie. Drive humans to extinction. I want to see okay, so now I want to see the gritty reboot where they because you know every fucking movie is a fucking reboot these days. So they do a gritty prequel reboot of like the the birth of cars, kind of like those. Those like Planet of the Apes movies that came up?
Misha 47:25
Yes. Yes, that's what this is. Dirty cars, dirty
Tyler 47:30
cars. Get your wheels off me you damn dirty cars. Okay, so back to story. This is unless you have more insane questions that are gonna make us both go mad. So okay, so this, this story is kind of I mean, it's bonkers. The world is insane. It doesn't make a lot of sense. And if you try to make sense of it, you will like we have go like okay into it. I do have crafty and despair.
Misha 48:02
I do have more questions. Okay. So in the story, this comes up a lot where we know who is one of my great uncles, and Luigi are trying to sell tires. And they keep saying, like, gave you three or four sets? Do they put them in their trunk? Like how many tires? Can you fit in a truck?
Tyler 48:25
Yeah, when they say three or four sets, that's at the end when like the the module Rottie in the Ferrari
Misha 48:30
up to 16? Yeah, 16 tires.
Tyler 48:34
Well, they probably have like trailers with them, aka like servants or employees
Misha 48:39
and the tar machine. Okay. I have a question. So the tar machine that they're using to repave the road? Is that not a vehicle?
Tyler 48:50
It did not seem to be taught. Yeah, it did not seem to have what sentience to it.
Misha 48:55
So like so you have a blimp, you have a helicopter, you have a train. Those are all sentient. tractors. You have a harvester and the cars.
Tyler 49:05
Did you think the harvester kind of looked like Hopper from A Bug's Life by the way? Or is that just me? Kind of looks like hopper.
Misha 49:10
thank anyone know who else? I mean, but like also, what is this ranking? Like? We said, there's like cows, who can't speak and act stupid.
Tyler 49:21
It doesn't seem to be a rust based system, because there are a lot of
Misha 49:26
mailboxes today Oh, I totally missed somebody at some point says Mater says like when the stampede of cows goes just tell people we like ran over mailbox. Those are something can leave, right? Yeah. Do they write letters to each other?
Tyler 49:43
Well, that's the thing packages. There's there's the newspaper going back to the newspaper where like a headline is works. Who writes that? Is it the news? Okay. We have to move on because this is going insane and and it's
Misha 50:00
So if you haven't seen the movie, you can understand why it feels like it took what 22 years of our life off of us. We're gonna die next year from old age. So in our 30s So this was more in our 30s Before we watch this movie
Tyler 50:15
now we're 400 something. Now we're in the car land living in the world of cars, we've we've we've aged that much into the future. So this, this story is, it's fucked up. And it's just not. I could Okay, so I could see liking this when I was like four or five. I could see this being a really fun. No, I
Misha 50:33
wait. A kid kid is not sure. Yeah. I asked my sister who is the parent of a three year old boy and a an almost six year old boy. If they liked this movie, and she said, No, they walk away every time they like they asked for it. And then it's too slow and they walk away. They cannot watch this movie. But then I asked the sixth row. Do you like his movies? Like, yeah, I like it because he likes cars, but he doesn't like the movie. He likes maybe 10 minutes of this movie. Yeah. Yeah, I
Tyler 51:11
can see that. Pacing is the pacing is really bad. It's like 30 minutes too long,
Misha 51:16
probably at least 30 minutes an hour too long. It's like an hour too long. It's like, an hour and a half too long.
Tyler 51:25
It needs to just be Well, that's a bit.
Misha 51:28
I mean, six minutes long. If you're gonna say that our shouldn't four minutes.
Tyler 51:32
The movie just shouldn't exist. Basically, it should just be the end credits for John Ratzenberger is watching movies with him himself in it. I love that was the best part of John Ratzenberger. So at the end for again, for those who don't watch this movie, but if you haven't seen it at the end, they do the thing like they did at the end of Bug's Life where they're like bloopers and kind of stuff. And John Ratzenberger as Mac the the trailer truck is watching car versions of Pixar movies like Toy Story. Monsters and
Misha 52:02
toy cars. toy car story. Yeah. Monster cars, monster trucks,
Tyler 52:10
Inc. A Bug's Life was just A Bug's Life. Was it? Yeah.
Misha 52:15
Oh right. Yeah. Abajo he
Tyler 52:16
sees like PT he sees his character PT flee. He sees his character Yeti The Abominable Snowman from Monsters Inc. and on and on. And that's funny because he's like this actors Great. Hey, wait a second. They just keep getting the same voice that was quite funny. I like that.
Misha 52:30
If we had a category for credits scenes credit scenes with John Ratzenberger it gets to
Tyler 52:38
get a tenant and now what I don't need is then once the sappy song comes on like it scenes still shots from the movie again like we don't need to see the we just
Misha 52:48
wait we just watched at Romans three Yeah. They've really tried to build up Romans. Oh, by the way. Yeah. Why was there Romans in this movie? What are they going to do? Tell me explain to me what they're gonna do.
Tyler 53:03
I'll tell you right now. Lightning McQueen is going to take that big nasty frog Kamath tongue of his and stick it right up. Carreras tailpipe Yeah, that's what's gonna happen. And it's kind of back to my original because I we didn't get to my original question from the beginning of this episode was alright, it's like are hurdles fucking Are they just said Are they just by the way? I've seen like, they do three or four pairs of turtles fucking in the past like month. It's been great. Why? Because they're like turtles. Yeah, like walking around with with Oslo. They're like turtles around where we live. And they're just like,
Misha 53:39
have you taken pictures that you know, because they're fucking like, Oh my God, who cares? They're animals. Oh,
Tyler 53:46
Misha. Ooh, wow. Wow. Earned how elitist?
Misha 53:51
Excuse me? What? What do you mean?
Tyler 53:53
They're animals? Who cares? Come on. I mean, like,
Misha 53:57
shame on us.
Tyler 53:59
Oh, I see. So that is so make sure you're putting
Misha 54:02
these restrictions. Like they don't care. They're fucking in front of
Tyler 54:06
- Yeah, but I wouldn't like if someone if I was well, I mean, it'd be you. Yeah, it would be on me. On me if I was fucking at the side of the street. Yeah.
Misha 54:17
We wasn't gonna say oh, yeah, God. Oh, kittens won't stop licking each other's butt holes in it's the worst thing ever in the whole world.
Tyler 54:24
So speaking of buttholes when these cars are going constantly and there's exhaust coming out of their exhaust pipes, are they just like farting constantly are those farts that are coming out what is coming out of their tailpipe? I
Misha 54:36
think it is just pollution. Like they're like pro light pollution, pro air pollution. THAT'S IT Pro.
Tyler 54:44
Imagine how gross that that whole stadium was filled with an audience of cars like imagine how they love huffing it That was gross. Speaking of gross things as well. Did you notice in the beginning when the two fans the twins that love Lightning McQueen last gym. No,
Misha 55:00
I didn't. Yeah, so not notice that and I hated them so much. For those
Tyler 55:07
who haven't seen the movie again, don't watch his movie if you haven't seen it, but you could maybe probably find this on YouTube because there's probably a clip of it because it's so cringe. There's like two young girl cars that are twins and Mia, they flash lightning McQueen. Like they turn on their headlights, which is clearly like, you know, flashing him and he says, I'm like, It's good to be me or something fucking gross and chauvinistic to hate this.
Misha 55:32
I'm gonna say something. This might be controversial. I would watch A Christmas Carol again before I watch this movie again. Oh, wow. I would take the nausea over. Whatever the over losing years off of my life. Yeah. Because like, I actually felt I walked away so many times. I was like, so I'm normally like, Okay, I've got my notes. I'm ready. I'm gonna watch this movie. I'm gonna page I was like, sideways on my couch. rolling my eyes. While I was yelling at a Christmas carol a lot. I'd rather be angry and disgusted than whatever I was during cars. I will not. I was also just so everybody knows. Was 100% sober. In all of the ways watching this movie, which was a huge mistake. I do not recommend that. If even if you don't drink or do drugs, like run on a treadmill while you're watching
Tyler 56:39
D or something and Oh, Tyler. Whoa,
Misha 56:43
calm down. That's not everybody's cup of tea.
Tyler 56:45
Vitamin D. Sunshine. No. Know get your feet you'll get your you know, I wasn't winking like you are not get your head up at the gutter.
Misha 56:58
Get your head out of the gutter work hard drive.
Tyler 57:02
Really doubt. Okay,
Misha 57:05
I guess it's also a bowling Okay, so
Tyler 57:07
let's go back to your your bombshell the statement. Okay, what is worse, this movie which has like
Misha 57:13
I would rather read disgusted than bored to literal death.
Tyler 57:17
This that's the thing. Christmas Carol was gross. But it's a timeless story that like is likable. But it's just a horror to look at.
Misha 57:26
Throw up I'd rather throw up thinking about A Christmas Carol, then. And
Tyler 57:36
so this this movie, it's like the story is it's it's aside from like, the very well done animation. It's it's a horrible, twisted world. That doesn't make sense. And the story is very paint by numbers and boring. And it's like it's like Pixar slow. It's like the flaccid blow last in this version of Pixar. It's like, they even have their Pixar moment of like, here's the lesson and here's the maturity of this movie that's under the behind the scenes like, like we need to care about like America's failing towns, because we built the highways and yes, highways are awful, and a lot of economy like was lost and a lot of local businesses were destroyed. But like it was all of that it was really ham fisted and really just, like kind of immature, and it's in his take on like a very seriously Okay,
Misha 58:26
so we'll say, I imagine my dad loving this movie, because he was born in the 40s. And like, was a teen and young adult in the 50s. And I could imagine a boutique. Yes. Like, this is what America is about. And that's who wrote this movie.
Tyler 58:48
Yeah, John Lasseter. Had some quote like, like, two things run in my veins Disney and motor oil and it's like fuck you.
Misha 58:59
Like, okay, the world is shit. Like, we don't need more garbage from cars.
Tyler 59:08
I just think Yeah, it's like I don't know for for a movie that's that's messages the interstate system and the death of small town America is is something to be sad about and criticize and look back on like, like we lost something of America in in our rush to develop for a movie that that's the message Don't fucking make it all about cars. Like what the fuck is your problem? It's like it's absurd. It really is absurd and like also, you know there's the other thing where like those small towns America wouldn't accept Guido and and Luigi and
Misha 59:45
I let a like flow and Cheech Yeah, right Yeah, fucking right.
Tyler 59:51
So okay, I think this deserves a one What did we gotta get this? We gotta give this up. Sell
Misha 59:59
epic assay oil or, or gas? I call it a cafe. Like you know the old the old fashioned lube. Yeah,
Tyler 1:00:09
just call it a just called lube store.
Misha 1:00:12
Have you ever been to a Quaker Steak and lube? I've never been but they had them in Pennsylvania when we still live in Pennsylvania.
Tyler 1:00:19
I have not been to a Quaker Steak and lube. I've been to a Sheetz that's a very
Misha 1:00:24
I used to. Yes. So we've been to sheets. Many times.
Tyler 1:00:29
I'm just looking down at the Owen Wilson Paul Newman, Bonnie Hunt, shout out to A Bug's Life. The Black Widow, Larry, the Cable Guy Tony Shalhoub, Cheech Marin, George Carlin, Jennifer Lewis, Michael Keaton, John Ratzenberger. And then a bunch of like, like people that are in there for one thing like Jeremy Piven who's the the RV agent, agent, yeah. Bob Costas, dale earnhardt jr. Michael Schumacher, a bunch of other people who are like related to racing Jay Leno because he like likes cars or something. It's like so many people were in this movie that just it's all like in jokes for people that are John Lasseter his age and like have have his like background now anyway.
Misha 1:01:12
Yeah, it's not for kids. Well, it
Tyler 1:01:15
is it is fine. No, yeah. for like five minutes. Five minutes. Yeah. And that's it. Like I grew up loving Voltron and transformers. So I could see like, part like, a five year old boiler, maybe enjoying this, but then quickly, kind of getting bored of it. But I like Love me some transformers. But transformers are different. They're an alien robot. They're not like a they're not an A.
Misha 1:01:39
And there's fighting and there's bad guys. And there's good guys and like, Okay, well in real life. I don't appreciate that in cartoons.
Tyler 1:01:47
I do. Although back but looking back, and I loved the movie when I was a kid. But the Transformers movie was a big cash grab to like kill off characters to make new ones to sell more toys, which I didn't realize like kid, but I loved it. Oh, yeah. Yeah, my favorite character dies and matter. I cried when anyone died. Just so
Misha 1:02:05
sorry. A one because it's stupid. And what the fuck?
Tyler 1:02:10
Yes. So I Yeah, one for story. Fun Factor. I would give this a big stink to
Misha 1:02:18
one. Yeah, one. This sucked.
Tyler 1:02:21
I would love to hear I hope that yeah, you know, we repeat this at the end. And but I'll just say now like, I would really love to hear what other people have to say about this. So please, like shout out at us and email us and tell us what you thought about this movie. What do you think? What do you think the world that Misha was asking me about in my head exploded? Like what do you think's going
Misha 1:02:41
on my questions? What is this world?
Tyler 1:02:44
And I asked my two original questions. I asked.
Misha 1:02:48
I asked the parent of a six year old boy who is obsessed with cars. This kid loves cars his favorite color red orange. Can he sit through this movie? No. Yeah, he's like the perfect audience for this movie and says he likes it but cannot watch it.
Tyler 1:03:06
You should have much well don't watch transformers because a lot of transformers died. But the main character in that is Hot Rod. Red and Oh, orange speaking
Misha 1:03:14
of hot rod.
Tyler 1:03:15
This is Rodimus
Misha 1:03:18
this was rated G should have been at one point PG think there's that old lady car said I want to look at that sexy Hot Rod. Yeah, which I appreciate for a different movie.
Tyler 1:03:32
She also slaps a bumper sticker on his butt that says kiss my view, which was okay. There's also the T the possible teen cars flashing a celebrity car.
Misha 1:03:45
That I think is okay because kids don't kids won't notice. Yeah, is right. But then there was where they kept calling the police. Hell hillbilly hell and I was like, Yeah, Gee,
Tyler 1:03:57
I don't think this Yeah, it doesn't send the right message that like where, despite where you're born, you're, you're not all that different. It's like, I learned I learned small town values like that sort of little small town values are appreciated and
Misha 1:04:12
like we all share similar values. Yeah, it's bullshit. Anyway, um,
Tyler 1:04:17
I don't however think it I don't think we should take points off for doesn't sit right. Because there's like, we I think we hit it with story and fun factor in that regard. Like
Misha 1:04:29
I agree. It's, it's fine. Like, we have like the icky miss. Like, we were like, yeah, yeah, I mean, he's racist,
Tyler 1:04:37
but there's a bit racist, actually, kind of, and it's very, it's quite classist, and it is like, very classist. It is, it is almost as disturbing as Christmas Carol. It's just Christmas carols in your face to serving this is like if you stop and think. So actually, I think we should take some points off. It doesn't serve right mostly for the classism and for the stereotypes and stuff, like negative three. Okay, I'm finding Then just say minus two but I'm happy punishing it more. Okay. effervescence 00 Okay. Ready? Yeah. What is the total?
Misha 1:05:17
This only gives a 25. Good. Wow par with bolt. And that was a traumatizing movie. It's
Tyler 1:05:25
okay. I thought it was gonna be lowered to be honest. But um, the animation kind of saved it a little bit and music and sound saved a little bit. I thought it was gonna be like Christmas carol low the way we were talking. I thought
Misha 1:05:37
so too. I thought so too. You know why it's unfortunate if story could like, take over. If we'd have any other categories, and you just looked at story, this fucking movie. I am 80 years old now. I feel like I feel like I sat and lived multiple lifetimes of hell. And here we are in 2251 talking about this movie, it it honestly drained the lifeforce database is
Tyler 1:06:13
Yeah, and coming up next. Okay, so
Misha 1:06:22
we've got I will be getting high for two or three. Oh, my sister said, if you were to get obliterated, she says you were to get obliterated for two or three. Do it for two. She goes three, there's a little bit of an uptick to.
Tyler 1:06:37
I've heard two is the worst. Yeah, don't do it sober.
Misha 1:06:43
And I've learned my lesson. Let me tell you after watching cars, the first you feel young, like you want to mature real fast. And, or if you feel like I have so much time on my hands. I just want to waste a lot of emotional and mental time. Sure, watch hours.
Tyler 1:07:06
If you're like, I don't want to like barf on anyone's bus here. But like if you're like really into cars, and you really want to like waste your life. Yeah, then watch this. But if you're
Misha 1:07:16
if you're a 70 year old white man and up Sure. I hate this movie. I hate this movie more than I hate A Christmas Carol. Even though Christmas carol got by far the lowest score in this podcast. I hate this movie. Well,
Tyler 1:07:33
this just goes to show that our system our very science is is holding up a little bit because like our personal bias is you know, we can't it's hard to not
Misha 1:07:48
our system isn't working because
Tyler 1:07:50
our system is I was trying to like defend it. But it's it's a broken system. Honestly.
Misha 1:07:56
animation and music was the one who suggested music Give it like? Yeah, I
Tyler 1:08:01
was thinking somewhere around Christmas.
Misha 1:08:03
Carol got a six for story. Yeah, lucky one. This is the only movie that we've covered so far. That has gotten a one for story. Yeah, well,
Tyler 1:08:15
it's gotta be a first for everything. So, gang, thank you so so so much for listening and, and sticking with us till the end. Not that not the funnest episode maybe for some people, but I
Misha 1:08:28

Because some of the movies have been good. Yeah. Yeah, yes. Some of the movies. Yeah, I Goofy Movie Bambi. Alice in Wonderland, A Bug's Life. I mean, I still think Beauty and the Beast is good, even though it didn't get the best score in the world. No.
