The first "Cars" may have been an OK film, but this sequel is terrible. This film MUST win a Razzie award (or at least get nominated for one)!  
 
Here are the awards I think this first "awful" PIXAR film should win: 

*Worst Prequel, Remake, Rip-Off, or Sequel  

*Worst Eye-Gouging Misuse of 3D 

*Worst Actor (Larry Da Cay-bull g (Larry The Cable Guy) )

These are my predictions.

By the way, when will the Razzies give awards to the Direct-to-Dideo / Straight-to-DVD films?  


RESPONSE from Head RAZZberry: Thanks for the feedback! Most people discussing CARS 2 declare it a "bitter disappointment" (especially considering its Pixar pedigree) but few consider it among 2011's Berry Worst. Doesn't mean it won't get nominations, but suggests it's not likely to be up for one of our Dis-Honors. 

As far as Direct-to-DVD titles, since our rules structure is taken from the guidelines for the Oscars, anything not theatrically released does not currently qualify. Here's a LINK to our Complete List of Eligible 2011 Releases, which includes our rule about how a movie qualifies for consideration from both our organization and the AMPAS. The main problem with including titles released only on home video is that they are even harder for members to actually see (let alone find available for rental or purchase) and would thus create problems of encouraging members to vote for films they most likely would have not have seen...

Here's what I think SHOULD be on the ballot....

Worst Actor: Larry the Cable Guy/ CARS 2
Worst Sequel or Prequel: CARS 2

Making the sidekick played by Larry the Cable Guy, the main protagonist in this movie was the dumbest thing that Pixar could ever do.... At one point his red neck-towtruck really got under my skin...

And maybe....

Worst Picture: CARS 2
Worst Screenplay: Cars 2

The first one mainly because of the idea that Pixar follows it's two Best Picture-nominated films up with LARRY THE CABLE GUY: SECRET AGENT....

I'm not sure if they will do a Nemo sequel. If they do, hope it would be good. Finding Nemo when it was released years ago, was my niece's favorite and almost 7 years later, it's my daughter's favorite, too. Hopefully, if they will make a sequel... sure that would be a hit, specially to my daughter.

Don't believe everything Tom Hanks tell you.

Cars 2 wasn't horrible, but it wasn't good either. For a non-Pxiar film, it's pretty mediocre. The question, "Why, John Lasseter?" was repeated in my head throughout the film. The plot is kinda confusing and it really needed some work. The film looks fantastic though, but that's a given for a Pixar film. 5.5/10]]> Sat, 25 Jun 2011 21:29:14 +0000 http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5154&PID=43258#43258 Member-started forum: CARS 2 : The 30% and 50% ratings may not... http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5154&PID=43244#43244 Author: Michaels

The 30% and 50% ratings may not seem all that bad, but like thom said, no Pixar movie has ever gotten less than 80-90% before! And yes, Pixar movies tend to have closure and aren't open-ended for sequels to swoop in, which is why their follow-ups would have to be prequels ("Monsters Inc.) or spin-offs ("Finding Nemo"). And yes, "Incredibles 2" would make for the best sequel, because the stale state of the superhero movie is in need of a breath of fresh air!]]> Sat, 25 Jun 2011 19:29:39 +0000 http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5154&PID=43244#43244 Member-started forum: CARS 2 : Originally posted by VitsThe... http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5154&PID=43241#43241 Author: whatsthepoint

RESPONSE from Head RAZZberry: Gotta agree with you that there does appear to be some kind of "Pixar backlash" involved in this film's numbers, specifically those on R.T. (LINK). While Tomatoes currently has this at a lowly 33%, reviews at MetaCritic are still at a reputable, though admittedly mediocre, 58% (LINK). This dichotomy between the two sites' numbers is precisely why I started putting links to both R.T. and MetaCritic reviews on all Official RAZZIE Forums about a year ago -- R.T. appears to have an open bias towards lower ratings, and in the case of CARS 2, the fact that it's Pixar even suggests they may be skewing their numbers with intent, for publicity reasons...

Still, a 58% score on Metacritic when almost all the other Pixar films had scores in the 80's and 90's? That's a catastrophe!

Toy Story didn't need a sequel (much less two) and the sequels were still great.
