Totally caught me off guard with the spy stuff!! It was super refreshing seeing that kind of story in a world based on sentient vehicles and I am glad that we got to see a character arc from Mater! Obviously cannot wait for Cars 3 though. I really wanted to see Lightning race more! Enjoy :)

Fun fact: After giving Mater the huge portion of wasabi, the chef says "Okiyami moshi agemasu" which roughly translates to "My condolences"
See, on the DVD, it has subtitles for the translation on that spot. So I already knew that (and the subtitles said "my condolences" exactly).
i think he already knew that Mater picked the Wasabi on Accident..
4:42 Paul Newman, the actor who voiced Doc, passed away between Cars and Cars 2…so that was a tribute to the character/actor.
I never understood cars 2 until I had a 3 year old and realized, this is how kids play with cars. They drive up the walls, they can fly, they can pew pew, they get blasted into the water and turn into submarine.
It’s still not my favorite movie but I appreciate it more now. Hope you watch cars 3 😊
when they were promoting Cars 2, Larry the Cable Guy (who voiced Mater) was telling everyone that this time he did all his own stunts!
I know this movie isn't everyone's favorite, but i personally loved this movie when i was younger. Can't wait to watch this!
Agreed
Agreed 2.0
It was my favorite of the Cars trilogy 😅
Agreed 3.0
@@victoriavegas90 Same! I used to watch it on repeat all the time
McQueen: "Mater, this isn't Radiator Springs."
Mater: "You just realizin' that? Boy, that jetlag did a number on you!"
My favorite joke in this movie.
I honestly think that this would have been a really well received movie, had it not been Cars 2, but instead its own standalone story.
Yeah it should been caked what it was a skin off of Meter.
@@kay-jay1581That message is all kinds of messed up. No fault to you though. Typos are REAL.
People wanted another boring second race from a movie called CARS and not RACING, you are wrong.
@@SprayInk-Kreatïv-Nouveau The first one wasn't even mostly about the race. It was about McQueen learning to slow down and open up to people in Radiator Springs.
@SprayInk-And-CritGlitch I suggest you look at Cars 3. It's what cars 2 should have been.
(And the actual Cars 2 shouldn't have been framed as a sequel)
It was even darker originally. There was going to be a deleted scene that actually showed Leland Turbo being crushed while Professor Z interrogated him, ending in his death.
16:26 Funny thing about that rally car : His appearance and driving style is a direct reference to the French rally driver Sebastien Loeb, nine times winner of the WRC (World Rally Championship)
I think it's cool that Michael Caine voiced Finn
Yeah, I was also surprised when I discovered that Finn Mcmisile was voiced by Michael Caine
30:18 This goes to show Francesco isn't exactly evil, just really arrogant and competitive. He holds no malice against the other racers. For them, the Grand Prix is just a friendly competition. None of them want to see the others get hurt.
My favorite review for this movie was”Proof that the law of averages applies to everyone including Pixar.” Thanks for taking it at face value…strong reaction.
Ok, I was really looking forward to you reacting to this one! Yes, it’s insane, I know. But, if you think of it as a spin-off/a movie version of Mater’s tall tales, it’s honestly just a good time. Also, it’s very rare for Pixar to just… drop all logic, and go crazy with writing something. Don’t get me wrong, I’m glad they don’t do it often, but as I’ve heard from other people, studios deserve to do what they want sometimes, instead of following what they are known for. Plus, the animation and voice acting are stellar, in my opinion.
yeah, and I would also like Cocoa Couch to react to the Pixar Cars shorts, few people react to them, they're very entertaining
You'll be happy to know that Cars 3 gets things back on track
you brought up an interesting question,how did Luigi and Guido end up in Radiator Springs? That could be an interesting origin story,maybe for one or two episodes of a show,I kinda wanna see everyone else's origin now that you made me think about it
My guess is they went on a search for ferrari. Then came across the shop in a, at that time, highly visited radiator springs. They then either ended up working there or got the idea to purchase it with the goal of making it worthy of ferrari.
No matter what the origin, I doubt it wouldn't involve ferrari.
@@sillyface6950 your premise is good,but Ferrari is located in Italy,right where they lived given Luigi's accent in the Italian dubbing,even if we accept Cars 2 locating their home town in Liguria instead of Emilia-Romagna (like,again,the Italian dubbing suggests),Ferrari HQs is just a couple hours of distance,so it would be the less intelligent thing for them to move to America for Ferrari when they quite literally have it at home.
A somewhat far-fetched backstory would be that they're so maniacally in love with the Ferrari Team that they travel all over the world to attend most or every race,and there are only two racetracks that hosted Formula 1 close to Route 66,one hosted it in 1960,while the other did since 1976 to 1983,so,taking into account Radiator Springs' flashback,they had to attend that one 1960 race and also visit Route 66,to then bump into RS,fall in love with it and settle down there
after card you really have to do a reaction to the Madagascar series. All 3 are IMO fantastics films and knowing you, you'd love the animals in this. Maybe even do the Penguins movie after.
It's a great movie. People were disappointed because the racing was only in the background here. I loved it, because Mater was my favorite character in the first one and I didn't care this much for the racing aspect anyway.
38:34 He brought Lightning because its his Adventure and he wanted to bring him along
And when Lightning lost the Race he said "This is why I don't bring you along"
But no matter what Mator wants to bring his BestFriend on any Adventure, mess up or not
It's like Mater retelling this story, Lightning saying that did not happen, then Mater saying, "Well dadgum, you were there too."
I didn't care for this movie at first, but everytime I rewatch it I find something new that makes me like it more. For example, the black car that asks "who's that car" (or something like that) when McQueen and Mater are in Japan is credited as Lewis Hamilton (the F1 racer), and he is voiced by Lewis Hamilton himself. Another thing is the street fight in London, Flo literally flashes one of the bad guys. She flashes him like the twins flash McQueen on the first movie. That cracks me up xD.
This was my favorite one in this franchise. I love spy movies in general, so this movie was perfect for me.
I get why not a lot of people like this one. But personally, I always had a blast watching it.
I've always said Cars 2 has a name problem. Its called Cars 2 so hot expect it to directly continue and follow the same theme as Cars 1. If they just called it Cars: International, Cars: Super Spies, etc etc. You would come in with different expectations. I would argue not a bad movie, but just had marketing.
oh yeah of course, that name would have also been cool and without confusion
People wanted another boring second race from a movie called CARS and not RACING, they are wrong.
I understand that people don't like this one, but I really like it. I love the spy stuff.
Fun fact, Finn McMissile is based on one of 007's cars.
Cars 3 is probably my favorite because of how it completes Lightning's journey.
Agreed, 3 is the best sequel, hope you finish the trilogy
While I do get why many people aren't fans of this one, it's still one of my favorite animated movies purely because of how fun it is. Not to mention the fact that it's _such_ a spy movie lol
@@blakeverdon4492 I think it has to do with how the sequel was mostly centered on Mater than with Lightning McQueen and he kind of took much of the attention away from McQueen in the sequel, as it takes the Spy trope where the "unlikely hero becomes a Spy" but the message and the writing was incoherent in Pixar Standards, along with the fact there we’re so many Antagonists in this film. Secondly, having Miles Axelrod being the true evil mastermind and leader instead of Professor Z (who I still consider to be more of an evil leader and mastermind than Axelrod) was like a dumb WTF moment.
I highly prefer Cars 2 to 3...3 just felt like Cars 1 done over again. Taking Cars 2 *as an homage to spy movies* instead of as a "Cars" movie, it works so much better and I'm disappointed that many aren't able to appreciate it like that. I'm glad you enjoyed it so much!
Fair enough but no lol
@@sallytheuselessbirdyou are wrong
Not to mention how it greatly expands the lore on cars itself.
The blue American that got blown up by the bad guys (and passed the secret spy stuff to Mater) is Bruce Campbell. I love ❤him!
Lol, I feel kinda bad. The only thing I've seen Campbell in other than this is Burn Notice. However, him as Sam Axe made me go 'that was the perfect voice for this spy guy' here. XD
@@warriormaiden9829 Yeah I live Bruce Campbell. He was in the Toby Maguire Spiderman movies, is the narrator in a Spiderman PS2 game and the mayor in Cloudy with a chance of Meatballs…But my favorite is Burn Notice and Sam Axe show/movie, plus he’s got a great spy name in the show he uses-Charles/Chuck Finley!
Oh last thing. In regards to the Luigi and Guido story, there's a YT video that talks about their whole journey from Italy to the US. You don't have to "react" to it, but its a good thing to watch. Pixar is really great at bringing these characters to life.
33:17 “No, Scott, I have a better idea. I'm going to place him in an easily escapable situation involving an overly elaborate and exotic death ...”
-Dr. evil
YEAAAAA CARS 2
Edit: will you finish the trilogy???
Cars two is the best
@@bigapplehouse2327L take
Although I enjoyed the soundtrack by Michael Giacchino, the performances and inclusions of Michael Caine (Finn McMissle), Emily Mortimer (Holley Shiftwell), and John Turturro (Francesco), and the character of Mater, I feel that Mater becoming the main character of this film kind of took much of the attention away from Lightning McQueen in the sequel, and the fact that it takes the Spy trope where the "unlikely hero becomes a Spy" takes away the message of the first and third film, along with the fact there we’re so many Antagonists in this film. Secondly, having Miles Axelrod being the true evil mastermind and leader instead of Professor Z (who I still consider to be more of an evil leader and mastermind than Axelrod) was like a dumb WTF moment.
I know there are some folks that still enjoyed this film and that’s fine more power to all of you, it’s your opinion to enjoy _Cars 2_ but personally _Cars 2_ is literally Pixar’s weakest and worst film and the film was a massive turning point for Pixar, that the studio wasn’t invincible with having all of their films gaining critical acclaim, so it took the studio 3-4 years to regain their footing again on making critically acclaimed films until _Inside Out_ was released.
Yes, we had _Brave_ and _Monster’s University_ released after _Cars 2_ and those films had better critical reception than _Cars 2_ but not the same level of Critical Acclaim compared to Pixar’s other films released before _Cars 2_ (e.g. _Toy Story 1-3, A Bugs Life, Monster’s Inc., Finding Nemo, The Incredibles, Ratatouille, Wall•E, Up)_
Let’s not forget the writing feels rough and amateurish for Pixar standards, and there’s another issue is that this movie has an identity crisis.
@@SilvanaPuris2310 Seriously?!? Where did you get the goad that I disliked Finn, Holley, and Francesco?
I’m not bashing the film to death, or I despise it to the bone, I just consider this to be Pixar’s weakest film, and again as I mentioned in my thread I respect that folks loved the film so more power to you. But what just frustrates me to have people like you accuse me and make off-color tasteless response that I dislike the movie while being toxic that it just bothers me for no rhyme and reason so literally learn to be more civil and respectful for goodness sake.
@@MrTragedious986 Agreed. Pretty much the sequel had a complete 180 and just have it be a spy comedy while the first and third film was a coming of age road trip film focusing on Lightning McQueen and personally I feel that the third film felt more like an actual continuation of the first movie than the sequel.
Not to mention Cars 2 was Pixar’s first film with a Rotten Score and with mixed-negative reception.
The main problem with this movie IMO is that it doesn't really have an underlying message like all other Pixar films.
Pixar uses fantastical worlds and childish stories to give out heartfelt messages which adults can enjoy and keep revisiting. This movie just takes place in the Cars universe, but is a spy thriller with no real message behind it. Maybe really small messages here and there but... "Never act out against your friend who's acting stupid" is a bad message.
Many other flaws, such as breaking a ton of Cars lore, focusing too much on the comedy relief character, characters acting vague and obtuse... But that's the main one IMO.
Yeah. If pixar had a message in mind while writing this, they might have realized that possible take aways from this movie are ‘disabled people are evil and out to get you, and ‘eco friendly energy is dangerous/ a scam from big companies’. Yeah the movie doesn’t push those messages, but it doesn’t dissuade them either. Mater sympathizes with the lemons, but while the movie does care about how intelligent and worthy mater is, the movie doesn’t acknowledge that maybe we should treat the physically disabled with dignity? Alinoll turns out to be just gas, but it was dangerous and a scam masquerading as alternative fuel.
If the cars weren’t personified my lemon annoyance wouldn’t matter, but they are.
Also, so many characters have to be a little dumb for most of it to happen. Mater is smarter than that. He generally understands what is unacceptable when you tell him the first time. He would understand to stop talking on the line. And fin is the worst. Theres no way in heck he would continue to think mater is a real spy.
@@serpentmaster1323You're right and you should say it
I’ve said this before, but I still find hilarious that the lemon mob boss is a British car, any car guys here could back me up with this
This is my favorite of the franchise. I know a lot of people don't like it but I love spy movies and this improved the franchise by 100% for me
Cars 2 is my favourite spy movie. I love how they have all the iconic features of a spy movie but try to fix it's faults. Like how they do the classic thing where they have the good guys in a death trap but just leave them alone whereupon they escape. BUT in this film the bad guys intended them to escape.
I prefer to think of Cars 3 as the proper sequel to Cars, with this one as more of a side adventure.
wrong
The voice actor who played Doc (Paul Newman) actually died in between the two films. So they wanted to honor him in the second one.
Tell me what you want but the Musik is 🔥like it goes insanely Hard as a Kid whenever i Chased somebody in Tag or Run away i always Mumbeled the "Fins Escape" to it.
Dada da dada da babarabararabayum dara dayum dadaradara dayum da dara dara dara dara daym
I still write novels to that same mumbling 😂 incredibly accurate lyrics you got there 🔥
@@bernadetterichards1808 XD no way someone actually Read them
23:03 that reminds me of that top gear episode. Where jeremy clarkson drives a reliant robin
26:23 the fact that Oscar immediately knew the plot twist 😂😂😂😂
pls react to phineas and ferb!!!
YES to Phineas and Ferb! It's such an intelligent show, with so many call-backs and references to other great movies/shows!😊
Never change yourself for anyone else. Always be yourself. Lightening should never have thought of his best friend as embarrassing. Meter is just being true to who he is, even if he did make some mistakes but he is a good friend, and honestly Lightening wasn't a good friend for half of this movie telling him to pertain to be something or someone he's not. Never asks your friends to change or behave a certain way, you let them be who they are no matter what.
my nephew (21 now), used to love this movie. we watched iit all the time. i was a bit bummed when i realized so many people dislike it. its amusing
I would say they erroneously named it Cars 2 because it really had nothing to do with the original story, but I really love this one. They pick up on the original story more in the 3rd one. It’s more focused on racing.
Your reactions and how you gentle adjust your expectations is one of my favorite traits of your channel! Im excited to finish this franchise with you!
You're the first reactor I've seen who figured out who the villain was. And early as well!
Oh boy Cars 2 is the movie that hurt Pixar reputation, plus the writing is not that good especially how most of the characters acted dumb for the sake of the plot.
19:04 but still both McQueen and Mater are stupid in the scene. McQueen shouldn’t have listened to Mater Advice and Mater should have taken off his headphones, so I can’t feel bad for both of them in this scene.
People wanted another boring second race from a movie called CARS and not RACING, they are wrong.
Can't wait for you to watch cars 3!
Cars 2 wasn’t everyone’s favorite but personally it’s mine because of the spy movie aspect, and I am a huge sucker for spy movies (I also love that Cars 2 gives Mater a spotlight, he definitely needed one)
Thanks to my nephew who is obsessed with the cars movies, I'm pretty sure over the years I've seen the movies over 100 times.
Loved this movie and the first one as a child, I'm also looking forward to your reaction to the third movie which I believe you'll find more like the first one in its morale and positivity. Not a Disney movie, but I hope you'll get around to watching Back to the Future some time if you haven't already, it's such a classic trilogy! Many thanks for your reactions :)
I love this movie so much it will allways be one of my favourite movies to watch
I can understand the hate this movie gets for being the 2nd movie of the Cars series. It should have been advertised as Mater's movie. I actually love this movie and it used to be replayed so much because my kids loved it too. We often forget that these movies are for kids and kids loves these movies
Always nice to see your opinion and reactions even if it's not my favourite film 😁
Personally I think the First film is best, second is meh, third is good and wholesome so I look forward to your reaction to the Third x
My favorite Cars movie. Yes, I know what I said. Not the best, but I still have fun watching it. Also better than the Planes movies
What ?! You sure about that? Planes movies are great i love those so much especially planes fire and rescue
11:00 holy crap, I’d never noticed the carmour before, lol
The main thing i hate about this movie is that Mater is so annoying, uneducated and embarrassing, constantly throwing Mcqueen under the bus, but the the message of the movie is that he doesn't need to change and just needs to be appreciated. Its such a one sided plot point that i can't get behind.
its a very different movie from the first one. if you grew up watching james bond marathons at your grandmas house on the holidays, you are ok with it.
Great reaction I think this one’s better than the first one, but I can understand why people don’t like it. They want more lightning and less toe meter well if that’s what you want part three is for you, but it didn’t do very well the box office, but you should see it for yourself and decide for yourself because you’re a good judge of character and judge your film, you can appreciate that Movies and that’s good. Thanks for the fun until next time.
I like cars 2
Same
The Northwestern is actually a fishing vessel and the guy voicing it is it's captain
I was never a fan, but they came back hard with the 3rd one. My favorite by far
Oscar, I wonder if you'll do the second Princess Diaries movie.
It's been a little bit since you watched the first one.
P.S: I really like Cars 2
Are the arguments and conflicts contrived? Yes. Does Mater have plot armor to end all plot armor? Yes. Does a part of me still enjoy this movie because I know a lot of rednecks like Mater who get judged as dumb even though they actually have a lot of knowledge and wisdom? Also, yes. And is the Brad Paisley song a banger? Also, also, yes. 😂 All in all, I love Mater, but he shines a lot more brightly in the original movie. I think this one was better in concept than execution, unfortunately.
I never really got the hate for this movie, now that you've explained it and said that it's less a sequel and more a spin-off. That makes so much more sense. It's still a really good movie imo
I've never been this early!! I'm so excited to watch this with you! :D
this movie is a bit controversial in the trilogy, personally I love it and think its good, thank you for the reaction!
Love you and your videos your reactions and commentary.
Your videos always puts me in a better mood.
You are definitely the best probably the only best RUclipsr reactor.❤
Fun fact: Someone did the calculations based off all 3 movies and McQueen in top condition and speed was probably around 230-250mph..i was like ummm wtf
I feel like they should’ve made it more clear that Doc died and paid more of a tribute to him for a long time. I didn’t even know he was dead until cars three came out.
33:54
they had dirt track sections for all the race tracks in the WGP it’s a shame the race scenes didn’t have enough screen time
the races are boring
My youngest brother was still a toddler when this came out and he had so many toys and even a chair from the movie. It was his favorite film
The reason behind the hate from this movie is because people wanted another boring second race from a movie called CARS and not RACING, they are wrong.
You are wrong
Yeah I remember how when I watched this movie the first time I more or less tuned out the spy shit.
I avoid the second movie and jump straight to the 3rd. The 3rd one made me cry, it was a great ending
10:58 when this movie first came out I had toys of those four cars right there on the railing
The American spy was my favorite character of this movie
After hearing your comments on this one, you're definitely going to like the 3rd one.
If your a fan of the LOTR style fantasy stuff. You’ll love Pixar’s Onward, it’s one of my personal favorites in recent years and I highly recommend it.
You need to watch the third one! It's more about lightning! Really good!!!
This movie is underrated.. not close as bad how people say it would be
I didn’t see anyone talking about it in the comments, but the format at the end of the movie was reused a lot for the little serie of shorts, I which Mater is telling McQueen crazy anecdotes (that don’t seem real) every episode, but at the end of each one there is a “proof” he really lived his story. Just like how Holley pops up a proves his spy adventures! I really loved those shorts as a kid so I figured I wanted to share it with you :)
It's amazing how much of this movie's plot is reliant on miscommunication and misunderstanding.
Also, since the first movie established in a joke that female cars are flashing with their headlights, doesn't that mean Flo did the same thing right here 38:02? 😅
React to Finding Dory
I would highly recommend Stranger Things!! The final season is coming next year and there isn’t a bad season to date. Wouldn’t take that long to finish and I think you would really enjoy it.
Imagine cars 3 as the real cars 2 it focuses on McQueen as the main character like it should be and mater is a secondary background character for the most part
If you have a chance to check out Cars 3, I highly recommend it. Honestly, I liked Cars 1 most of the series. I didn't like 2 that much because of the weird spy stuff and the miscommunication between Lightning and Mater that caused too much unnecessary drama. However, I thought number 3 was okay for the most part since the first half started a little predictable but at least picks up its slack later in that movie.
this is my favorite of the car franchise is saw it in the theater with my sister and my nephew
I wish that this movie had just focused in on the race. That's the most interesting part for me. I don't even like racing irl, but these movies make it pretty entertaining, partially because it doesn't focus SOLEY on racing but building up the characters and their relationships. Every time I see this movie, I'm disappointed at what they threw away.
Love the movie, Can't wait for your reaction to Indiana Jones and the last Crusade
I only learned that this movie was disliked a few years ago. I love this movie. I've always loved it since it came out. Also, someone else suggested it, but could you maybe react to the Mater's Tall Tales series of shorts after Cars 3. They're all short enough that you could definitely watch all of them in one video, and not many people do reactions to those.
This actually did feel like a spinoff but i think its good as a stand alone, the third film goes back to the racing aspect and personally i feel its more enjoyable.
Awesome reaction of my favorite Cars movie!!!!!😊😊😊😊😊
I love this one but after the third movie was released i felt it was way better than the second so yeah Cars 2 is unique in its own way but it doesn't feel really like a sequel unlike the third although it's a little bittersweet
Movie Recommendation: Tin Tin!
Such a fun animated action movie!
I am glad you watch it. This is not a bad movie. I don't like it but I don't hate it as many people do. IMO this sequel is just not up to pixar standars. That's it
It is the lowest in the pixar ranking but that doesn't mean is a terrible movie as some people make it to be
I’ve been waiting for this one TURN IT UUUUUPPPPPPP🗣️🗣️🗣️
You should watch the third one, it feels more like a sequel
The yellow girl car in Italy that said “i’ll make you dinner” is not cliché is facts (said as an Italian)
A cliche can be facts but it’s more that it’s a trait they always highlight in films rather than other aspects of that culture. That’s what makes it a cliche.
26:20 Prophet Hades strikes again! Iykyk
This one is my personal favourte of the Cars films. I love spy movies and this was one of the first ones I ever saw as a kid, and so it will always be dear to me. I've heard a lot of people don't really like Cars 2 as much, which I can see as it is the one least fitting in the trilogy, but I would watch it on repeat all the time.
