Cars the Movie from Disney and Pixar

(The Auto Channel) – Get ready for another wonderful animated film from Walt Disney and Pixar, the dynamic partnership responsible for Toy Story (1995), A Bug's Life (1998), Toy Story 2 (1999), Monsters, Inc. (2001), Finding Nemo (2003) and The Incredibles (2004). This time the project is CARS, obviously a topic near and dear to our hearts. The story takes place along fabled Route 66 and stars race car "Lightning McQueen," who looks like a cross between a 70s’ era Camaro/Charger, with a bit of a Viper and modern Corvette thrown in (no doubt every car guy and journalist will have their own opinion). Owen Wilson provides the voice for McQueen. A fun filled website has been built and can be accessed at www.CarsTheMovie.com, although many website features haven’t been completed as of this date. Other voices include Paul Newman, Larry the Cable Guy, Richard Petty, and Cheech Marin. Scheduled release of the film is June 9th.
