This Was A Photo Of The Comic I Took And Posted On My Deviantart.

Absolutely WONDERFUL drawing/fan art/Gem-ification by @lunan95 for our group/ possible story of Cars!Gems.

Wonderful dress for Sky/Larimar.

Larimar is the Gem and her name before joining where she gives herself a new name.

Will you join the Rebellion? @crystalgemcars

Ideas are welcome.

Okay, now I have done a couple of more gemsonas!

First one out is Sky, who belongs to me. :3 Sky is a Larimar, a rare gem and she belonged originally to Blue Diamond’s court. A misunderstanding occurs during the rebellion and Sky got separated from the Homeworld Gems, causing her gem to crack and she were left alone at Earth where she wanders around lost, helpless and without access to her gem abilities.

Second one is no one else than Chick Hicks! He’s is a Moss Agate, a Quartz soldier like Lightning/Carnelian, only he’s one of the ultimate Quartz soldiers which means his creation is perfected and he belongs to Yellow Diamond. I have ways pictured Chick being a lot like Jasper from the actual show and my friend/co-writer @pixarjem agreed withy opinion.

❤️ I think Cars 2 was real start of the 2010s Disney Twist Villain craze…

Previous Twist Villains existed before the 2010s, but I think the reason why it became more frustrating for Pixar and Disney movies in that time was because of one person: John Lasseter. Lasseter had been executive producer on all the Pixar and Disney films with the twist villain: Cars 2, Wreck It Ralph, Frozen, Big Hero 6, Zootopia, Moana, Coco, and Incredibles 2.

While Lasseter was the executive producer on previous Disney and Pixar films with a twist villain (Toy Story 2, Monsters Inc. Incredibles, Meet the Robinsons, and Toy Story 3) he also had a lot more oversight as well. He wasn’t the most powerful man in animation at the time.

I think Lasseter really liked the twist villain and production-timeline wise, he probably suggested twist villains while making Cars 2.

With that being said… I think Miles Axlerod is the smartest in the sense that he never brags about his crimes to his victims. He only reveals himself as the villain when there’s a bomb inches from him and seconds away from blowing him up. Axlerod was smart enough to be cautious, not going to his meetings in-person, using a disguise voice and I think changed his color(?)…

As for the amount of money he probably spent setting up the World Grand Prix as a sham… Well if the 2020s have taught us anything is that being a billionaire doesn’t necessarily mean you’re a genius.

I’m not saying Miles Axlerod my favorite, but I kind like him in the historical sense of animation production and writing, what he’s meant to represent in the movie itself, and for shallow reason of silly/scary fanfics about him. Like in the same way people use Prince Hans (no super powers or soft/sad boy-ism, but manipulation, charm, wealth, and privilege).

💚 I liked crashing into Mia and Tia on the Cars video game because it kind of gave me a glimpse of their personalities. Surprisingly they are different. Mia is more aggressive with her yelling and whining and has more lines than Tia (in the video game). Mia also has a slightly deeper voice than Tia. Tia is more likely to compliment herself (self confidence queen) and whine.

I don’t get why people assume they’re teenagers. Not only is that gross for Lightning… but Mater too since they’re in his tall tales as girls to impress.

Sarge is the underrated hero. Despite calling Fillmore a tree hugger, he clearly distrusts Axlerod’s history of being an oil tycoon enough to switch Allinol with Fillmore’s fuel at the last minute. He may call not trust Fillmore’s organic fuel, but he cares about McQueen’s safety than his bias. There’s also this line Mater said in Cars 3 that while Luigi and Guido were Lightning, they put Sarge and Fillmore in charge of the tire shop. Fillmore gave all the tires away and Sarge was hunting them back down because… you don’t just do that with someone else’s merchandise.

But at the same time, casually brings a cannon to a party when Fillmore asked:

(via https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C8wlWMJtnuU)

I should like this but I do!

BEWARE MY SPRAY CAN!

Red looks impress

Ramone looks so pissed holy shit

SARGE #17 Do you think he has a soft spot????

Short answer: Yes.

More detailed: He has a soft spot for Broadway and Musicals in general. Secretly he’ll be singing Hairspray, Singing in the Rain, West Side Story, Little Shop of Horrors, and The Sound of Music. Only Fillmore and Flo know of this since she has a Caroke night twice a month.

Also has a fondness for newspaper comic strips that he “borrows” from Mater.

Overall despite berating Fillmore for being a “tree hugger” he also is somewhat an environmentalist... Or he at least trust Fillmore’s fuel enough to keep Lightning safe from Allinol and distrust Axlerod for being Big Oil.

Just doesn’t want to admit because wants to keep his tough, drill sergeant image.

My OT3:

Lightning/Sally/Cruz- Cool One/Clever One/Cute One

Jackson/Cruz/Natalie- Cool One/Cute One/Clever One

Eugene/Rapunzel/Cassandra- Cool One/Cute One/Clever One

Imagine your OT3 arguing about who is “the clever one”, who is “the cool one”, and who is “the cute one”.

I have nothing to say since you summed up that preview and Lightning’s character in that scene better than I could. You read my mind and perfectly articulate it in such a way that I couldn’t. Thank you.

Cars 3 Preview Analysis

At the beginning of the clip, we see the race in session, then it focuses on Lightning. If you didn’t already notice, you could see the way he was eying the race car next to him. It’s as if he was observing the design layout of that competitor, and he must’ve been thinking about how those kind of cars were the new kinds of technology they had nowadays. Something that Lightning didn’t have, at least doesn’t have as much due to his age.

When Jackson drives up next to him, remember when he said, “Hey Champ, where did all your friends go?” He was referring to Chick Hicks and Dinoco, along with all his other competitors he used to race against in the first movie. They’re no longer there. They’ve retired. They no longer are able to race because of the new rookies and, it’s almost like they are forgotten. Lightning didn’t retire. His deep love for racing keeps from doing that, and he refuses to let his age show on him. He refuses to give up. McQueen is determimed to prove himself that he can still race. However, you could still see his reaction when Storm states that. Lightning is basically all alone, and in reality, he probably has no true place in that race.

After that, Jackson drove away and literally passed the five cars that were in front of Lightning in less than two seconds. It seemed as if it took him no effort at all. That’s how easy it is for Jackson to take the league. Not to mention, apparently he’s cheating, using a special type of gas that boosts his speed and overall stamina.

After a while, a car attempts to overcome McQueen, making the two of them the same distance apart. They both take a couple of turns boosting speeds, passing over the other temporarily before the other does the same back. Lightning, at this point, was NOT letting another car pass him. So he managed to succeed, seeing an opening in the middle of another set of races and took the chance, squeezing into the two of them. Looking closely you can see how close he was to hitting them. The edges of both sides of his front bumper were inches apart from hitting the yellow car on our side (our left, his right). Who knows how close he was to hitting the other car.

Over time, it shows Lightning slowly but succeedingly overcoming the rest of the cars ahead of him, trying his best to get to first place. Then, eventually, he gets to second place, with Jackson Storm in the lead as first.

Before anything else happens, the two of them head to their respective pitstops, in need of tires. Just like the announcer stated, this final stop will be the big ‘decider’ for who has victory and who is defeated.

Lightning, knowing that if he could hurry up and pass Storm, wanted Guido to hurry up with replacing his tires so he could take first place. Luckily, his team finished, so without a second’s hesitation, he hit his gas and zoomed out of there, just in time at the last moment before the other cars managed to get ahead of him. It was surprising how fast he went at that specific moment, though. A bit slower and he would’ve lost his position.

Everything came crashing down, however, because in a couple of seconds Jackson just sped up next to him. It was emphasizing how much faster he was than Lightning.

Let’s take another look at Lightning’s perspective here… He’s panting. A lot. He’s obviously running out of breath because he’s pushing himself to his max speed. He doesn’t want any cars to take his place, so he’s using all his will power to not falter and slip up. He NEEDS to win this race. He can’t just lose. He’s still as good as he was in the first movie’s races, right? This is what he’s probably thinking from his point of view.

Noticing that Lightning was panting heavily, Jackson asked him if he was alright, seeming concerned for him. He states to Lightning not to worry, and that he had his good run. Then, Jackson had the nerve to finish off with as he sped away, taking first place, “Enjoy your retirement!”

When he said that, it hit Lightning. It was like a smack to the face. Reality flushing over him without warning. Now focusing on Jackson’s words to him, not to mention that being combined with Lightning seeing that Jackson now took first place and is dramatically faster than him, he’s having conflict with himself. His expression falls as he finally understands the 'truth’ about his role in life now. This causes Lightning to slow down, allowing the cars behind him to pass him.

The terrible thoughts of “I’m going to lose the race, I’m not as fast as them anymore, I’m going to retire, I will no longer be able to race anymore,” just makes it worse. The announcer says how Lightning is fading away, meaning he’s losing his places, which actually makes sense in a mentality kind of way. People perceiving Lightning as a rookie is fading away. Lightning’s youth is fading away. His PRESENCE his fading away. No one notices him anymore. He’s not the star he once was. These new, high-tech advanced  cars are. They’re the new rookies, and the new soon-to-be stars that will make Lightning completely forgotten.

Thinking all of this, Lightning finally regains his composure, repeatingly growling to himself, “No, no. No, no, no, no…!” He’s saying 'no’ to all of the things explained above. He’s saying no to the fact that there’s new cars better than him. He’s saying no to him losing first place and potentially losing this race. This’ll be the first time Lightning will TRULY lose a race. Racing is what he loves to do. It’s his passion. And to give it up all away? To lose everything? And not having a say in it? He has no choice. No option.

Therefore, he forces himself to speed up, determined once more to take back the league. Then he faces his problem. He can’t go any further nor faster than he already is. Over the years, his speed decreased, and his age is preventing him from reaching the others. You can see how Lightning’s body just overall shakes terribly, slightly at first then more intensely. It’s showing he’s pushing himself WAY too hard. He’s trying to reach a speed he can no longer do. He’s done for. Lightning McQueen is no longer the fast racecar he was once known as.

His engine is probably overheating from it all. From all the pressure and, emotionally, the hurt feelings and thoughts that’s crossing through him, making it all worse.

And since he’s too concentrated with trying to speed up to reach the others, he’s not paying attention to his actual driving. He’s going too fast for his own good, and therefore that’s what caused his crash. He must’ve shifted slightly while making that long, cursive turn, and in that little shift, his back tire lost all control, making the rest of him get thrown off track. Lightning quickly tries to make his way into control, but fails to regain balance.

Thus, without catching his balance, gravity and the intense force of his speed threw him at the wall, and the force of that hit threw him airborne.

Don’t even get me started on Sally. Her expression is enough to break our hearts. Our shattered hearts from Lightning himself only shatter into nothing once we see Sally’s immediate reaction to him crashing and flipping into the air. Just imagine; watching your boyfriend doing something he loves and for him to crash? Seeing him airborne in the air, now extremely prone to massive and most likely permanent injuries that, God Forbid, could take him away from you? That’s how Sally must be feeling.

Lastly, we have Mater. His best friend, now crashing terribly. Although his reaction wasn’t focused on as strongly as it was with Sally’s (you can see his face a bit as it zooms in on Sally), we can all coclude how he’s feeling right now. The world must’ve stopped for him too, something unbelievable happening in front of his eyes.

And there’s my analysis for the Cars 3 Preview. Thank you for your time!

Took this a few weeks ago when my family and I went to see Hidden Figures. Saw this poster while walking to the theater, wanted to take a selfies of it. Left my sister in the theater saying “I had to go to the bathroom” just so I could be with it. Than dad spotted me with and he took the picture...

I wanted myself with my baby...

WHY ARE YOU TWO AT A DEMOLITION DERBY?!?!

Sally: Hello?

Cruz: Hey what’s up?

Sally: I just called to check on you and Lightning. Is he there?

Cruz: Uh... he can’t come here right now.

Sally: Okay... well tell me when he can.

Cruz: Oh I can’t do that.

Sally: What do you mean you can’t?

Cruz: I mean can’t because he’s racing.

(Loud crashing noises are heard, Cruz cringes as she hopes Sally didn’t hear at all)

Sally: GO CHECK ON HIM!

Cruz: Okay you don’t have to shout at me!

(Cruz zooms to get a better view, horrified and praying that Lightning’s okay)

Cruz: He’s still racing.

(Metal is heard being smashed)

Sally: Where are you two right now?!

Cruz: We're at Derby!

Sally: WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU'RE "AT DERBY"?!

Cruz: I MEAN I'M AT DERBY!

SALLY: WHAT DERBY ARE YOU TWO IN?!

Cruz: WE'RE AT A DEMOLITION DERBY!

Sally: WHY ARE YOU TWO AT A DEMOLITION DERBY?!

Cruz: FUCK YOU!!

Chapters: 1/1 Fandom: Cars (Movies) Rating: Explicit Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply Relationships: Salley Carrera/Holley Shiftwell Characters: Sally Carrera, Holley Shiftwell Additional Tags: Car Sex, not humanized Summary:

A rainy night in the desert, and two cars who can't resist each other. Yes, this is lesbian car-on-car. No, I'm not sure anyone will enjoy this.

I didn’t make that fic.

Found this on Archive of Our Own one time. I usually avoid reading this type of thing, or at least read once and never again since I have a pretty good memory of things, but i don’t know I’m weirdly intrigued.

Honestly I don’t read smut... but I found intriguing was it got me thinking about my favorite Cars girls as a femslash pairing. It’s written in a way that honestly does feel in character for both. Holley being nervous and flustered about her attraction and Sally being the more bold and confident of the two. That feels in-character for them (along with Sally being the one with the experience and initiates it and being on top). There’s also the description of the body language the two have that Sally can tell Holley’s attracted to her and giving Holley the confirmation that she likes her too. Thus when they do the deed they are giving permission and consent with Sally leading the way.

I shouldn’t have to praise that part because that’s something that SHOULD be understand by people. Consent and both sides taking initiative. Not just one party saying “WE HAVE SEX WHEN I WANT IT! YOUR OPINION OR FEELING OF IT DON’T MATTER!” Oh and the feeling that they actually do like each other and see each other as equals.

Any relationship, whether romantic, platonic, or even sexual, should have all parties feel equal to each other in the emotional sense.

Well that’s my two cents, going to back to start planning my own femslash fanfic while also thinking about the canon ships. 

Oh, and a possible Cars Hunger Games-esque Rebellion AU of Francesco/Sally.

I like shipping.
