Honest Movie Trailer Shows Why You Can't Think About The Cars World Too Much

Ahead of the release of Cars 3, the first and second films from the franchise have been given the Screen Junkies 'Honest Trailer' treatment

The whole ‘suspension of disbelief’ thing is especially relevant to the Cars film franchise. You just have to accept this world of anthropomorphic cars as it is and not think about it too much. As if you do, the questions become more and more unsettling.

Where are all the humans? Did cars kill us all? Are cars immortal? How did the second film end up being such a pile of garbage? All of these concerns and more are discussed to amusing effect in this new pair of ‘Honest Trailers’ from Screen Junkies.

Cars 3 meanwhile will be released on 16 June. Just don’t overthink it…

These weren’t their finest. Fast And Furious one are hilarious though.

I still don’t really get all the hate for Cars 2.

And yes, I watched the video. But even then some of those seemed a little bit like opinions rather than hard evidence that Cars 2 sucked. Not trying to sound Fanboy-ish here, but I’d honestly like a good explanation of why Cars 2 seemingly sucked like a vacuum.

For instance, the fact that Mater realized who the baddie was thanks to the screws with which a bomb (placed on him by the baddie) was bolted on with, a clue that only gave out that the bomb was placed on him by the baddie, without saying anything about who the baddie was.
Which really communicates how they didn’t really pay all that attention to making things with logic as much as to using stuff that’s complicated enough for kids to just lose their focus and assume it makes sense

Nah, cars didn’t kill us, the cars from Cars are just in an alternate universe from us.
