It looks weirdly like a kids' PC game my kids played growing up.
Man, just ascend already.

What's the deal with Cars? I know I wasn't interested in The Incredibles based on promo material, but this looks more than uninteresting.
Yeah, I gotta say it seems like an uninspiring premise. But the key with Pixar (as with Mutant Enemy) is always in the execution rather than the high concept gloss.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Is the premise other than "cars go round and round"? I feel I may be missing a subtlety.
Is there Fantastic Four footage on the other side of that link? I heard a rumour, but work firewall policies won't let me look.

Oh! I also saw this:
Warner Bros. has confirmed that the long awaited trailer for Batman Begins will indeed debut next week on selected Blade Trinity prints and on all Oceans 12 prints
And I hadn't noticed there was a higher res version of the Batman teaser poster. Looks like his love handle has a groove.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

The site says the downloads don't work, so no footage there.

OK, seeing it blown up that big gives the unfortunate impression that Batman is looking down in embarrassment at how happy he is to see Catwoman or Talia.

Hey. New board.
Is the premise other than "cars go round and round"?
I'm 99% certain that the movie will not center around the racecars, but around the more humanized "audience" characters. They did get most of the teaser-space, after all. I think the racecar scene was supposed to be funny - the equivalent of an action movie to cars would be, after all, a dangerous race. I guess.
The plotline outline on IMDB is much different from "cars go round and round." It is: A collection of classic automobiles set out for adventure on Route 66.
Basically? All I'm taking from the teaser is "This movie is about anthropormorphic cars." Much like I took from The Incredibles trailer: "This movie is about superheroes, probably past their glory."
Oh, also from the teaser? "This movie is by Pixar. Those people who have yet to make a movie you didn't thoroughly enjoy. Usually at least twice."
