14 years on, I still don’t understand what Pixar was doing with the Cars franchise when it released the bizarre sequel, Cars 2. Pixar is notorious for its “What if X had feelings?” movie plotline trend, so it makes sense that the 2006 classic animated movie Cars was a hit, earning $462 million at the box office worldwide. In fact, the Pixar movie was so successful that it was actually the sixth highest-grossing film of 2006, and the movie about anthropomorphic vehicles featuring Owen Wilson launched a multimedia franchise, which included two sequels, as well as the spin-off movie, Planes.

While people's feelings about theCars franchise are varied, it's a classic for a reason. It's a great example of how Pixar has never been afraid to lean into the "What if X had feelings?" formula. The Cars films were some of the first to begin this trend, establishing a world where society is not run by humanity, but instead by sentient cars with feelings. However, there are multiple reasons why Cars is a divisive series. For instance, Cars 2 is regarded as a classic by some, but it was the first Pixar film to break the studio's streak of Oscar nominations.

Pixar movies have covered all types of fantasy worlds with a variety of characters, and one of its most bizarre universes is, by far, that of the Cars movies, but a theory gives it an origin story through an underrated villain from 2004. For years, Pixar (along with Disney) has been the leading studio in the field of animation, and its success began in 1995 with Toy Story. Since then, Pixar has explored worlds with talking bugs, monsters who scare humans for a living, fish going on big adventures, and a lot more.

Pixar continues bringing a variety of animated stories almost every year and is focusing on sequels again. Among them now is Cars, but this isn’t the Pixar franchise that needs a sequel. Pixar is still one of the most important studios in the world of animation, and it continues to consistently release at least one movie every year. Pixar has explored all types of fantasy worlds in its movies, such as one where toys come to life and one where monsters exist parallel to the human world, and it has also explored other cultures, as it did in Coco and Luca.

The best car restoration shows take the world's love of cars and motorcycles and deliver a series that shows people making them bigger and better. This has been a popular genre since the 1990s when Top Gear took the world by storm, and things have just gotten better as time goes on. These shows offer a look at not only restoring an automobile to its original glory but also upgrading it — both inside and out. These shows take a car that has seen better days and restore the interior and exterior, often delivering a work of art.

Although 2013's Planes is considered a part of the Pixar universe, it was not actually made by the studio. Planes, which follows a crop duster whose dream is to compete in the Wings Around The Globe race, is a spinoff of the popular Cars franchise. Following the success of Planes, Planes: Fire and Rescue, was released in 2014 as a sequel. There was supposed to be a third installment in the Planes franchise as well, but it was canceled after the production studio behind the movie was closed.

Pixar has earned its place as the powerhouse studio in the field of animation, and as such it has seen a lot of success, but one specific trilogy is the studio’s wildest movie franchise for various reasons. Pixar began its reign in animation in 1995 with Toy Story, the first entirely computer-animated feature film, which marked the beginning of years of high-quality animated movies. Toy Story continues to be Pixar’s biggest and most successful franchise, but it has also built other, smaller franchises.

The Cars franchise has been a huge success for Pixar, but Cars 4 still hasn't materialized despite continued demand for another sequel. The first Cars movie follows talking race car Lightning McQueen (Owen Wilson), who gets lost in a desert town on his way to a race and is forced to complete community service before he can leave. The cocky racer eventually falls in love with the small town and learns a little humility. While Cars wasn't critically acclaimed like other Pixar efforts, it was still a big success. Cars also boasted a great cast, including the legendary Paul Newman.

Doc Hudson's role in the Cars universe had to be changed after his voice actor Paul Newman ed away. One of the best characters in the original Cars and the judge of Radiator Springs, Doc Hudson is responsible for making Lightning McQueen (Owen Wilson) fix the road he destroys, and he does not appreciate the arrogant, entitled race car. Later, Lightning finds out that Doc used to be a champion racer himself, the Hudson Hornet, who had a major crash in his final race.
