To get back in the game, he will need the help of an eager young race technician, Cruz Ramirez, with her own plan to win, plus inspiration from the late Fabulous Hudson Hornet and a few unexpected turns. Proving that #95 isn’t through yet will test the heart of a champion on Piston Cup Racing’s biggest stage! Yep, it's a by-the-numbers sports drama.

Either way meh bring on Coco and Incredibles II. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PatrickvD Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 The problem with this franchise is that it fundamentally makes no sense... who builds their houses? Who builds anything in this universe? Trying to figure the logic out in his franchise is maddening. No amount of Dark Knight darkness can fix this hot mess.

I actually think this is a universe nobody can explain. Which is why it is so hated, people a dissapointed and frustrated with the whole consept and not just the kids/merchandicing aspect. A rare franchise where "it was all just a dream" might be welcome by some people. And I doupt the kid fans would even care. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MCKillswitch123 Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 The Dark Knight Races is a more fitting title. Teaser is surprisingly good, though. But I imagine very misleading. Whatever, as long as the movie is better than Cars 2 and The Good Dinosaur Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
