I am honestly not sure who is more excited about the CARS 2 movie coming out June 24, me or my son. Every time we watch the first movie I get a tad bit chocked up when Lightening McQueen throws the race to help The King finish the race. I also let out a little sigh of relief when Mater comes flying by in his helicopter.
Oh and not to try and beat out my husband in the who loves the original CARS movie, we actually spent hours (not exaggerating) trying to find one of each of the CARS cars at various big box stores. When my son decided he was “too old” for them, my husband actually hid them in the garage. I am glad he did, because I have no doubt after watching the CARS 2 trailer, that Eph’s previous addiction will find its way back into our house.
I can’t wait to meet these new characters:

Zen Master |

CARS 2 movie synopsis:
Star racecar Lightning McQueen (voice of Owen Wilson) and the incomparable tow truck Mater (voice of Larry the Cable Guy) take their friendship to exciting new places in “Cars 2” when they head overseas to compete in the first-ever World Grand Prix to determine the world’s fastest car. But the road to the championship is filled with plenty of potholes, detours and hilarious surprises when Mater gets caught up in an intriguing adventure of his own: international espionage. Mater finds himself torn between assisting Lightning McQueen in the high-profile race and towing the line in a top-secret mission orchestrated by master British super spy Finn McMissile (voice of Michael Caine) and the stunning rookie field spy Holley Shiftwell (voice of Emily Mortimer). Mater’s action-packed journey leads him on an explosive chase through the streets of Japan and Europe, trailed by his friends and watched by the whole world. The fast-paced fun includes a colorful new all-car cast, complete with menacing villains and international racing competitors
