À propos de ce contenu audio
On this episode of Podcast Like It’s the 2000s, Phil and Emily continue their Pixar 2000s miniseries by finally pulling into Radiator Springs to talk Cars with critic and scholar Myles McNutt.
Often dismissed as “the lesser Pixar,” Cars is also one of the studio’s most commercially dominant films and one of its strangest cultural phenomena. The trio digs into why this movie connected so deeply with kids, how Disney merchandising helped shape its legacy, and why Cars feels philosophically out of step with Pixar’s more emotionally precise storytelling. They also explore the film’s obsession with nostalgia, small-town Americana, Route 66 iconography, and the uneasy politics lurking under its warm glow.
Along the way, they discuss Pixar’s evolving reputation, the film’s place in the studio’s broader lineage, Cars Land as a theme-park response to Harry Potter, and why even if it’s flawed Cars might still be essential viewing to understand Pixar’s 2000s run.
Ka-chow!
