    I wasn't too thrilled with what I saw on the front of the incredibles. I'll hold off on passing judgement until I see more though.

    I think it could possibly be old just seeing cars with faces running around. I mean Nemo was all about the sea but you had all these different creatures. But, wait to see more until I make anymore judgements. Love the facial expression on the truck.

    Hmmm, the trailer doesn't really do much for me, but then again I wasn't all that thrilled with the "Finding Nemo" trailer either. I thought, "How can you get emotionally involved in a story about fish?". And look how that turned out. So I'll reserve judgement for now.

    Hmmm, The Brave Little Toaster sorta comes to mind.
    Looks okay. I suppose it could be good. Can't tell yet.
    Though I still need to see the Incredibles.

    The way they did the faces looks exactly like an old Disney cartoon about the life of a car. I forget the entire storyline of the cartoon, but I remember the car was bought by a young married couple and he was happy... then he eventually started getting older (was having trouble starting, engine sputtering, etc.), and got more depressed, until they got rid of him and he ended up in a scrap yard. He was in the depressed rungs of depression, until one day a teenager came to the scrap yard and bought him, and rebuilt him into a shiny new hotrod.

    Anyway, it was one of my favorite Disney cartoons as a child, so I think just for that reason I'll enjoy this movie. I'll see if I can find a screencap of the cartoon I'm talking about.

    [edit] Here's the short I was talking about. I was wrong about the faces looking exactly the same, but they're done in a pretty similar style. I was also wrong about the car being a "he," it's actually a "she."

    I think Pixar has found success in not revealing much at all for the teasers, and then Wowing us in the theatre.

    For Nemo, I expected two little fish playing around in the water being chased by larger fish.

    For Incredibles, I expected some fat guy in a suit running around trying to save people.

    Then the movies are released, and it's much much more. I think this one will be cool too. Owen Wilson sounds good as a red car. The tow truck is a silly character children will love. I liked the race scene because I was a huge Nascar fan when I was young. The camera angles were perfect. Pixar has been top of the line for innovation in each film. They've pushed the limits for fur, water, muscles and facial expressions, and now vehicles.

    So far I really like all Pixar movies. Some more than the other but I think that they are all great fun.
    I thought the trailer was funny. My 2.5 year old son on the other hand, being a car fanatic like pretty much all young boys, went completely nuts. I think he's watched the trailer 50 times this weekend. So I'm liking the trailer a little bit less right now smile.gif

    I think we need a "movies & trailer" board laugh.gif
