Disney borrows marketing ideas from Car Wars

[jeriendhal]

So apparently Disney is pretty much giving up on original ideas altogether and just following the lead of its much more successful subsidiary Pixar. I wonder like Steve Jackson Games' Car Wars we might see further expansions in the franchise focusing on boats and tanks (with a cancelled video about the re-building of the Transcontinental Railroad).

Also, Disney using Rob Zombie in a trailer? WTF?

Why is it that the most headache-inducing concept ever to come out of Pixar gets so many sequels? I spent the entire first movie wondering, "Are there people in this world?" I'm fairly confident at this point the answer is "no," but it still makes my head hurt every time I think about where new cars come from. And now there's an aircraft carrier? Ugh.

One of my friends concluded that "Cars" is a sequel to "Maximum Overdrive"...

I thought it was the world of the Terminator if John Connor lost.

If there are no people, why are there farm fields? Never mind the implications of the birds from "For the Birds" having a blink and you miss it cameo during the Life is a Highway montage.

You know how they always say the making is the fun part...
