For real.

Yep. Little boys love cars and little everyones love Pixar. Still, that number is pretty staggering.

Your best-written column yet!

 

I see a figure like that and can't begrudge the studio for going back to that well.  But I'll begrudge them all I like!

That actually doesn't surprise me one bit.

Me neither. I literally don't know anyone with children that hasn't bought numerous pieces of Cars merchandise. In fact they're so ubiquitous you could tell me they made 16 billion so far and I'd still think it was possible.

I bought my two year old nephew the movie Cars for Christmas, along with a whole bunch of figures from it.  He can't get enough of it.  He's only two.

I blame Parker for the sequel!

I think my Nephew is responsable for most of that.

Everything my nephew owns is related to Lightning McQueen. Kid isn't even 2 year. He hasn't even SEEN Cars. He knows about 15 words. Five of them are words derived from the storyline of CARS.

Goddamn the hate for this movie.

Well it's not terrible, but it's not very good either. I feel the outright hate only exists because it's Pixar and that's a high standard. That, and it's giving Larry the Cable Guy a paycheck.

I actually think it IS a really good film. I have always liked Cars, I think it is well told, beautiful and a fine addition to the Pixar pantheon.

Agreed. And this is actually one role in which Larry the Cable Guy is not annoying at all.

It's not terrible but it's so goddamn boring in the midsection and nowhere near as funny as even the second-worst Pixar film.

Eight-billion dollars ($8,000,000,000.00!) is such a retardedly massive number I can't even get my head round it. If CARS can make that much, something like HARRY POTTER must make like a bajillion in merch alone, and STAR WARS must have made so much money it's looped round to a buck thirty or something.
