Default cars (the movie)

wen t to see it last night, such a great fun film. go see it, stay till the end to see the extra bits as the credits go up.

fun film all the way, Clarkson in it too!!
I like the fast/furious style neon'd up cars etc
and when the Hummer on polished 22"s says he's never been 'off road' before! lol


ps... go to a later showing when its not full of kids talking when they get fed up 45mins into the film. we went at 6:30 showing and kids were still there!!! :shock:

Clarkson is 'Harv', the main Car's agent.

Seen in on Saturday night, certainly wasn't a crap film!

Yes, PG is correct - Harv is most definitely Jeremy Piven... "Ari" from Entourage. As they tend to use 'topical' people for the characters in Cars, there could only really be one person to play the agent!... 'Super Agent' - Ari Gold...

Anyone that can get hold of it, should watch "Entourage" (on HBO in the US) - as it's bloody great!

Jeremy clarkson voiced harv in the british version
Jeremy Piven voiced harv for the american version apparently

Why the surprise at kids being at a 6.30pm showing? It's the summer holidays!

Another thumbs up for Entourage from me too. It's a TOP series full of humour, totty, cars, gadgets and cameos from Hollywood stars. (HBO can do no wrong in my book). Track it down on R1 DVD or on the (ahem) internet I urge you all. Series 3 is currently showing in the US.

We finally got around to seeing this last night and loved it, I can't wait for the DVD. It's one of those films where I came out and immediately wanted to see it again to see the bits I'd missed

The detailing is excellent, I loved the Beetle flies and the tyre tread contrails in the sky and of course the Porsche being called Sally is very cool The two MX5's were really good too and reminded me of my long since dearly departed one.

We went to the 8pm showing and of the fortyish people in about a third were kids although they were all too busy stuffing their fat little faces to make any noise

Still haven't seen this yet - but will probably get down later this week. And it'll be the first 'free' film of the year

Went to see it on Saturday with my daughter.

I laughed so much the kids in front of me started to complain.

The tractor tipping scene with Frank is a classic, and the wheel change at the end

For such a boring story line, I thought the film was good.
Wouldn't have been bothered waiting for it on DVD though.
I guess I am expecting maybe too much from Pixar now.

My daughter [5] liked it. My son [10] also thought he had seen better from Pixar. My wife fell asleep

I will get the DVD though

I went to see it at the weekend and its brilliant!! I laughed all the way through, and I was so tense during the race at the beginning! So many stand out moments and one liners, not a single slow boring part which to be honest I expected.

Agreed about the tractor tipping scene! I was in stitches!!!
