    Cars
    Cars is a 2006 American computer-animated sports comedy film produced by
    Pixar Animation Studios and released by Walt Disney Pictures. The film was
    directed by John Lasseter . Set in a world populated entirely by
    anthropomorphic talking cars and other vehicles, it follows on a race car
    named Lightning McQueen, who, on the way to the biggest race of his life,
    gets stranded in a run down town called Radiator Springs and learns a thing or
    two about friendship, family, and the things in life that are truly worth waiting
    for.
    The movie was based on genuine places and faces from actual historic Route
    66 that are worth adding to the bucket list.
    John Lasseter said that inspiration for the film's story came after he took a
    cross-country road trip with his wife and five sons in 2000. When he returned
    to the studio after vacation, he contacted Michael Wallis, a Route 66 historian.
    The film was dedicated to Joe Ranft, the film's co-director and co-writer, who
    died in a car crash during the film's production.
    Why I chose this movie?
    I chose this movie because it was a movie that i used to like a lot when i was a
    little kid and nowadays I still like it and enjoy it a lot, I still get excited about
    the ending.
    My mom said that I used to watch Cars all day, sometimes even 5 times a day,
    I had Cars' DVD, Cars' shoes, Cars' cologne, etc.… everything from Cars.
    What is the plot of cars?
    Lightning McQueen is a cocky, rookie race car.
    While traveling to California for the dispute of the final race of the Piston Cup
    against The King and Chick Hicks, the famous Lightning McQueen
    accidentally damages the road of the small town Radiator Springs and is
    sentenced to repair it. Lightning McQueen has to work hard and finds
    friendship and love in the simple locals, changing its values during his stay in
    the small town and becoming a true winner.

    Who are the main characters?


    Lightning McQueen, Doc Hudson,Mater,Sally Carrera,Chick Hicks,Strip “The
    King”.
    What is the message of the movie ?
    Relationships matter more than fame and success. Lightening McQueen, a
    rookie race car, competing in the famous “Piston Cup,” has had a single focus
    all his life: winning. But midway through the movie, he becomes painfully
    aware that he lacks friends.
    To don't judge people based on their looks, the value of true friendship, and
    the importance of team work, learn how to lose.

    Song
    Whoo!
    Mmm, yeah
    Life's like a road that you travel on
    When there's one day here, and the next day gone
    Sometimes you bend, sometimes you stand
    Sometimes you turn your back to the wind
    There's a world outside every darkened door
    Where blues won't haunt you anymore
    Where the brave are free and lovers soar
    Come ride with me to the distant shore
    We won't hesitate
    To break down the garden gate
    There's not much time left today, yeah
    Life is a highway
    I wanna ride it all night long
    If you're goin' my way
    Well, I wanna drive it all night long
    Through all these cities and all these towns
    It's in my blood, and it's all around
    I love you now like I loved you then
    This is the road, and these are the hands
    From Mozambique to those Memphis nights
    The Khyber Pass to Vancouver's lights
    Knock me down and back up again
    You're in my blood, I'm not a lonely man
    There's no load I can't hold
    A road so rough, this I know
    I'll be there when the light comes in
    Just tell 'em we're survivors
    Life is a highway
    I wanna ride it all night long (whoo!)
    If you're goin' my way
    I wanna drive it all night long (all night long)
    A-gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, yeah
