SALLY FROM CARS SINGS!

WHY IS IT ONLY NOW DO I FIND THIS OUT!

And I just had a slight mini freak out of happiness and excited all because of my weird curiosity.

SHHIIIIIPPPPPING! AWWWWWAAAAYYYYY!

YES! I KNEW THIS WOULD HAPPENS!

BOTH OF THEM HATE JACKSON FOR TALKING TO THEIR BABY CRUZ!

I FEEL VERY SMUG ABOUT ANYONE WHO SAID SALLY WAS GOING TO BE JEALOUS OF CRUZ! 

IT’S THE TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY PEOPLE WE SHOULDN’T WORRY OR FEEL COMPETITIVE ABOUT OTHER FEMALES TALKING TO GUYS WHETHER THEY’RE A BOYFRIEND OR EVEN JUST A FRIEND!

DID I MENTION CRUZ IS ABSOLUTELY ADORABLE! AND SHE LOOKS INTIMIDATED BY JACKSON! NOT MY BABY!

LIGHTNING, SALLY, GO KICK JACKSON’S ASS AND PROTECT YOUR DAUGHTER!

…Well there goes my Cruzon ship. 

…Fritter/Cruz go!

Why do I keep shipping Cruz with characters who absolute dicks to her at best and at worst ones who try to murder her?

when some fuckboy tries to flirt with ur daughter

Everytime Cruz FAILS at her ONE JOB! She has ONE JOB and she screws it up!

She’s wonderful and I love her, but she really SUCKS as a trainer.

Lightning is not your babysitter Cruz, he can barely babysit Mater and had like four other dudes to helped with that!

Cars Origins: Struck by Lightning

By Dave Keane

Is the source you heckin guys. I’ll post screengrabs now that I’m not sleeping.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU DON’T KNOW HOW TO FLY THIS THING!

Jackson: WHERE ARE THEY?

Holley: Since I can only assume one of our shared associates I’ll just tell you Sally, Francesco, and Sterling are upstairs.

Jackson: Has it look like I give a F*** about where Sterling is!

Holley: In that case,

they are downstairs.

Jackson: Thank you very much!

Holley: Oh and Storm.

Jackson: Hmm?

Holley: Aim for his hood.

(Meanwhile)

Sterling: I just don’t understand women!

Francesco: Neither do I!

Sally: Look it’s simple, just go to her and tell her how you feel.

Sterling: You know what? You’re absolutely right! You guys are so wonderful, thank you so much.

Francesco: He’s gonna get rejected isn’t he?

Sally: Yep.

(Somewhere else)

Jackson: Finally. Finn!

Finn: What the?

Jackson: Where is McQueen?

Finn: I think he’s outside.

Jackson: Where outside?

Finn: I don’t know

Jackson: Finn.

Finn: Yeah?

Jackson: Why is there a helicopter outside?

(Outside in a Helicopter)

Lightning: What do you mean you don’t know how to fly this thing?

Cruz: I mean I don’t really know how to fly this thing. I can’t make it any simpler.

Lightning: Than how did we get up here!

Cruz: I don’t know! I just started pushing buttons!

Lightning: You know at this point, there really isn’t any reason for why I haven’t MURDERED YOU YET!

(Red beeping warning buttons start)

Lightning: WHAT DID YOU DO!?!

Cruz: RELAX! I GOT THIS UNDER CONTROL!

(They crash the helicopter into Thunder Hollow Speedway. But at the speedway...)

Sterling: But I still don’t understand. Why don’t you like me?

Miss. Fritter: You mean other than I’m not into guys fancy-pants? YOUR FRIENDS CRASHED THE HELICOPTER ONTO MY TRACK!

Sterling: It was just the one helicopter...

(Finn is now in a helicopter with Mater hanging on for dear life)

Mater: AAAAHHHHHH!

Finn: QUIT SCREAMING!

(Finn also crashes the helicopter on the track... All of them survived that day)

And then Holley saves their asses while Finn is in la la land waiting to die.

Holley: Oh Ford, you kidnap a tow truck without doing background check, you yell at me for shocking your informant when you had TWELVES HOURS to say something, and you got caught because you didn’t think to look up. And you call Mater the idiot? He at least no idea what he doing most of the time and I was mostly following your orders! 

Finn: Shut up woman! We have to stop this violence with the only way I know how: with MORE violence!

Holley: Should’ve seen that one coming. Just promise me your death count will be less than three today.

Finn: Yes.

Omg I just realized Finn is 100% willing to die for McQueen no question.

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!!

YES I HAVE TO SHIP RIGHT NOW! I AM THE CAPTAIN OF THIS SHIP AND I’M GOING TO SAIL HER INTO WHATEVER I DAMN WELL PLEASE!

I was the FIRST Cruzon shipper!

Ill take this ship to my grave okay.

Duh. I never had any doubts

Reblog if you actually have faith in Cars 3.

I’ll do it!

GIVEAWAY: In Celebration of CARS 3 and Everything Pixar’s 6th Anniversary, Win CARS on Blu-Ray by Re-Posting THIS POST and Following us on Tumblr!

I love it and consider it canon and over-hated.

I know John Lasseter had genuine intentions with it because he loves these characters. I’ve seen the commentary, interviews, behind the scenes thing,etc. He made this because he wanted to. Not because of toys, if it were than I think he’d also own them as well:

The point is that I love Cars 2, I waited five years to have seen my favorite characters again and meet new ones in whatever screen time they had.

There’s flaws, not going to lie, but I still appreciate the movie. When I know there’s flaws and acknowledge them it kind of makes me appreciate the movie more.

I never found Mater annoying. If anything he actually became an interesting character with his knowledge of car parts, how he’s very literal minded like someone with Autism or in the spectrum, and how he’s never really thought about how people see him and it actually does make sense. He’s never left Radiator Springs, let alone the flipping country so of course he doesn’t know exactly how these things. Especially since Lightning doesn’t explain to him exactly what to do and not to do. Not to mention, Sarge, Fillmore, Luigi, and Guido seem to be terrible babysitters if they can’t keep track of Mater for leaving!

Also Miles Axlerod totally started the Disney Villain Surprise thing that Disney’s been recently in the animated canon (King Candy, Prince Hans, Yokai/Professor Callaghan, Assistant Mayor Bellweather, and Te Ka). Except I think he does it best and is probably the most intelligent of all of them since he was pretty prepared if Plan A didn’t work he’d have a back up plan. He also doesn’t show up to his meetings, physically. He live-streams at the meeting and with both a disguised voice and body.

That’s Axlerod’s engine, but not his body color. This is Axlerod just after the crash in Italy:

That’s a darker, grassy green, than the more pale-ish, almost bluish green. The disguise itself must have been design for him to easily and quickly place it on while getting his clutch assembly fixed and then taking it off to go back into the public eye. That’s pretty damn prepared.

Axlerod’s also a pretty amazing liar since he fooled a lot of the characters, including a lawyer (Sally), the spies, and the in-universe media. However, it’s not an out-of-nowhere type thing like Hans as it was foreshadow in a much better way while still keeping it a surprise (in my opinion).

There’s also the fact that unlike the other surprise Disney Villains, he didn’t reveal himself to the heroes due to him thinking that he won, but because he was under the threat of death by Mater. Yeah if you think Mater was basically holding Axlerod hostage with the bomb on him and if he didn’t turn it off, they were both going to die! Keep in mind, Axlerod wanted Lightning dead because he chose the alleged alternative fuel Allinol and thus gave alternative fuel another chance to redeem itself. Since when Mater came with a clearly alive Lightning and accused Axlerod of being the mastermind, Axlerod’s plan at this point was busted. The most he can get out of at this point would be his life and what he made off of the World Grand Prix. But even getting out this with his life is a problem for him since Mater figured it out and isn’t going to let him get away unless the bomb is deactivated. Unlike the other surprise Disney villains Axlerod was at a crossroads of being screwed either way. If he didn’t deactivate the bomb, he would die, (and possibly the spies, Lightning, and Radiator Springs would be arrested):

If Axlerod did than he’d go to jail. Axlerod chose the one where he wouldn’t die.

Mater noticed the bolts that are attached to the bomb on him were also the ones ordered by the mystery engine. An engine that was specifically made for a British car model and one that uses oil. There’s also how Mater specifically says that he DOESN’T leak oil. Axle rod put the blame on Mater because he was literally right next to him when it happened and easiest car to blame, because honestly if Mater didn’t come at that moment Axlerod couldn’t have blame Lightning, as the oil leaker and thus would have somebody calling him out as either a liar or a hypocrite. If it were only Lightning and Axlerod up there and no Mater, who would you assume as someone who leaked oil? The racer or the former oil baron? That’s why it’s easier pin the blame on the silly, hick of a tow truck.

What I’m getting at is while some may see it as stupid cash-grab I do see it as something rather interesting and different, with thought and care put into it. John Lasseter WANTED Cars 2 to be different. He LOVED Mater and saw a lot of himself in the character. He WANTED to do this movie.

Can’t exactly defend him on Toy Story 4 though...

Reblog if you actually like Cars 2

I can’t be the only one out there!

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.

Why are my idea so weird?

That’s what I think will happen too.

Even in Toy Story 3 the conflict of “your child will grow up and won’t need you” was postponed with Andy giving the toys to Bonnie. She’s going to get older still and give up the toys and it’s just another delay of the inevitable and heartache will restart once again.

Lightning retiring after having one last comeback by beating Jackson would be beautiful, heartbreaking, but hopeful ending that would resolve his internal conflict and having him leave on his own terms. He’d see it as a choice he made, that Doc didn’t have. Doc said there was a whole lot left in him after his crash that he never had the chance to show it, the crash left him bitter and angry at the racing world and he wanted nothing more than to hide and never hear of it again. Lightning doesn’t want to be that, he doesn’t want to be kicked out of the sport he loves, he doesn’t want to become resentful of it when he stops. He wants the choice of retiring, not the fear. Leaving something that you love doing, knowing that you accomplished a lot and made it your choice is a satisfying end.

Him retiring and maybe even becoming Cruz’s crew chief would be his character arc coming full circle, becoming the Doc to a new generation, to Cruz. 

I really hope Lightning does retire at the end of Cars 3

Hear me out: yes, they can do a movie where he’s falling behind new tech, refuses to give up, trains with Cruz, gets revamped, goes into another race and shows those whippersnappers who’s boss. And it could be fun and entertaining and have good characters, and have a message that just because you’re old doesn’t mean you’re out! However, the main emotional conflict for Lightning is unresolved. He still has to let go and retire at some point. There will always be new tech. So really, the main conflict is only postponed.

OR

They could do an ending where he does train, he does get new tech. He could potentially beat Jackson Storm. But then he sees what a promising racer Cruz is (isn’t she supposed to be an aspiring racer?). And he starts to reminisce about his career, and he does realize that he’s had a really great one that will leave a legacy no matter what. And that there’s things he can potentially do with his life (and his wife/girlfriend/whatever) after he’s done racing; his life isn’t over just because he retires. So yeah, maybe he does go in and beats Jackson Storm, just to show that he can and to leave on a high note a la Michael Phelps. But then he retires on his own terms, opening a space for Cruz to enter the circuit, because now he realizes that his legacy can last through the new athletes (again, Michael Phelps–he’s getting beaten by guys who idolized him as kids now and he’s cool as long as they aren’t asses about it). It would close the series, like Toy Story 3, with a message of letting go, letting a younger generation take over, and entering a new chapter of your life. In my opinion, a much stronger and more complex film.

All aboard the friendship bus!

Don’t you two do anything.

Also OMG Mack! John Ratzenberger! YOU EXIST AGAIN!

Road trip squad animated!

Also aren’t Mia and Tia suppose to be teenagers?

Lightning’s really creepy now...

@singlespeedz But it looks like they already have their lights off before they flash him . Can cars install the pop up lights on themselves. Tity implants

Agreed. Completely. Though some of the images of Cruz and Lightning seem very... ship.

Lightning and Sally are still my Cars OTP!

Plus I don’t see Sally as the jealous type. Lightning has shown to be the jealous type with the whole getting pissy and annoyed when Sally only said Francesco looks good. Sally on her end has absolute trust in Lightning with letting him go to the World Grand Prix without any worry of him being far away and thus doing anything selfish.

Cruz I can see as having a crush on Lightning, especially since her character description says “coming to Lightning’s aid with stars in her eyes when he shows up at the Rust-eze Racing Center.”

Stars in one’s eyes is an idiom meaning “Be dazzled or enraptured, especially with romance; also, be naively idealistic or optimistic.” 

Cruz is a lifelong fan so she’ll be excited and happy to work for him but not flirt with or openly say she has a crush on him. Maybe blush when Lightning compliments her or even get a bit giggly but just that. Besides, I can mostly see Lightning seeing her as daughter figure or even a little sister figure, but either way, just a friend.

I sincerely hope with all of my being that Pixar doesn’t do that thing where Lightning spends all of his time with Cruz because she’s training him and it makes Sally feel insecure because she’s more in his league than she is - or some other excuse - and they imply that something could happen between Lightning and Cruz.

Don’t do that. Do not do that. Don’t even hint at it, get that away from me and chuck it to the bottom of the ocean. Sally is a vibrant and confident lady who trusts her bf, Lightning is not a weasel and loves Sally with all of his heart, and Cruz is a decent and respectable young lady who wouldn’t even think of doing something like that. I’m watching you, Pixar.

I’m really proud of this one 😭💚🖤 . The idea behind this picture was that it takes place some time after Eve and Wall.E save the earth and that the tree they are looking at is the plant from the movie 🫶.

Some Wall.E and Remy sketches. Words can’t describe how much I freaking love Wall.E I think he’s so adorable and I have adopted him as my son.

Some little sketches of Anxiety from Inside Out 2 because she’s a goofy and adorable little bean who weirdly helps my anxiety? For one of these drawings I drew her surrounded by things that help my own anxiety.

I just rewatched Wall-E and I'm melting
