*A few days before the events of Cars*
Sally: My soulmate is out there somewhere, pushing a pull door... I just know it
Meanwhile:
I just realized now how useless pull doors must be in the cars universe, I don't think they even exist there๐ญ but I already did this little sketch and I found it funny ahah so here it issss
closeups from the wildfire comic
Ngl but Lightning McQueen from Pixar's Cars is my new comfort character
This guy starts out as a selfabsorbed, arrogant, fame-hungry, arrogant, outright mean, misogynistic, arrogant, careless dickhead And life offers him one chance of redemption and he is all whinny and pissed about it, but still continues to throw himself at it like a starved man would throw himself at a McDonalds
He has that one experience of "hey, it feels good when people are genuinely kind to me" and immeduately decides to make it the ultimate premise of his life to kindle that feeling in others
Fuck winning that race, he'll help that opponent finish his career with dignity Fuck money he'd rather stay with some rusty elderly guys instead of that shiny expensive sponsors because they looked so sad when he wanted to leave
He is unapologetically, immediately, unquestioningly ride or die for his friends
The universe threw that one weirdo at him going 'this is your friend, now' and he just went along with it because 'this feels good' and 'I really don't want to hurt him' and the next thing we know is everybody is his friend and he is on a personal revenge-race because some other race car had the audacity to publicly insult that special friend And then he not only interrupts a race to apologise to said friend, but also tells the media to shove their bad publicity up their asses because friends>>everything and 'I dare you to publish mean things about my weird best friend, bc if you do I'll use my influence to fuck up your public image so badly you'll wish you had never written a word'
He uses his public image to support surpressed and discriminated minorities bc 'Even if I don't know them, they are my friend and nobody harrasses my friends'
He promotes eco-fuels bc it is right
Like, this guy was shown the meaning of kindness and decided, this was what he'd go for within a week or less.
He trust and loves his friends and makes an effort to show it Publicly Privately With grand gestures and personal costs or with little gestures. Anywhere Anytime And whoever has something agsinst that can shove it up their assses because 'I'm the best racecar there is and I can do what I want bc the next race will earn me more money and fame than you could ever dream of"
And the best thing He does this spectacular u-turn in his priorities, but still keeps his character. He is conscious of his abilities (but no longer arrogant) He is ambitious (but no longer fame-hungry) witty (but no longer mean for no reason)
He is unapologetically, publically kind and at the same time so fucking smug about it that he somehow managed to make the media and everyone love him.
That guy...
(I apologize early here for my probably bad english eheh let's go)
There are moments from the start like when he talks to The King showing respect or when he talks to Harv while travelling and then feels sad when the "friends theme" is brought up where is clear that deep down he actually cares about having friends and not being alone, he would love to have real friends but he's too scared to take off the mask he wears all the time on and off the track with other cars, fans, his sponsor and even Mack, that only shows his confidence and ambition to be famous, the best of all the racers... we also now know that he's scared as he wasn't like this once, he was betrayed by his closest friend so he decided to start relying and trusting only himself to avoid being hurt again, he closed the door to his heart for everybody else... but he didn't like it, it was hurting him living like this. He is actually very sensible, deep down even shy (and as it will be shown later a huge introvert and Cars on the Road is the epitome of it I loved it) so when he understands that in Radiator Springs he can truly be himself (and it happens gradually) he then let's go everything that he's not really him, that's why he feels home there and at the end a part of him doesn't even want to leave. He still races cause that's what he loves, but his heart at that point belongs to something new: a family, a place to call home, friends that really care about him not because he's some famous racecar, nobody knew when he arrived, they just care cause they start to love him for the car that he really is... and I find it beautiful. It would have been too sudden if those tiny moments weren't shown at the beginning, we wouldn't have known how much he suffered deeply so they are extremely important. He wasn't truly happy, at the end instead he's finally really himself. Doc sees this gradually as well (his is the last heart to get stolen from our protagonist as he was hurt too in the past and it was by the racing world Lightning is part of, he had built a shell that didn't allow him to be really himself as well: a car that loved racing, that lived for it) and at the end when he sees it and sees him, well he is the happiest and proudest mentor/dad ever... from that moment, their story together is written in history through their victories and most importantly for the bond they develop.... mentor and student, father and son, as (spoiler here... tecnically) what made Doc proud the best, atn the end of his life, was not racing, but that little red crazy racecar called Lightning Mcqueen that accidentally came into his life and everybody who lived there one night, in a small town on route 66.
In the other two movies he just keeps growing and at the end of the third one (minor spoiler be aware) he has become the most selfless version of himself. He embraces the beauty in helping others, the feeling that it brings him is filled with joy and pride. The older he gets, the wiser he becomes, more and more similar to his mentor. I absolutely adored him in Cars 3 and I think the writers did a very good job, the alternative finale just couldn't give him the same growth, the same end to this incredible arc... that's just 1 of the milions of reasons why he's my fav character, he becomes a legend as a racer but most importantly as the car he isโคmy precious boyyyy๐ญ
(How long is that analysis? It's very long, that's so cool!! And I'm not a native speaker, either)
First of all, WHAT ON EARTH does that technically a spoiler mean? Don't tell me! But it would be super nice of you could tell me, where I can find out
And, what's Cars on the Road? Sounds interesting.
I see what you mean about him being respectful towards King and everything. When I called him arrogant and stuff I primarily refered to how he acts towards the guys from Rusteeze, bc they genuinely seem to like him and he isn't very nice to them, which seems to be because they are old. And, he is pretty mean to his crew as well, obviously prioritizing success over not-hurting-other-people. And, he I don't rember what exactly it is he says to Sally, but it's definitely misogynistic, but is it harrassment?
You are definitely 100% right that this is probably because a.) he was hurt in the past (I don't know about his backstory. Would you tell me, where I can find out more?) and b.) because wearing that mask is taking it's toll on him.
I'm not sure, if the rest of what you said goes against what I said (or were your points even counter-arguments? I don't know, I'm sorry, I'm lost), anyways I agree with everything!
My point was primarily, that hus development happens so quickly and goes that deep.
Like, he really seems to have internalized that idea of showing only this mask and not letting anyone close, so it's really amazing, that just a few days are enough to turn (or return) him into this kind, loving person and that he opens up (especially to Mater) that quickly. And, that his kindness goes so deep and comes so naturally.
The fact, that it happened so fast really emphasizes what a good, kind character he has been all along Definitely the best
And, yes, it is so amazing how Doc sees McQueen as proof of everything he believes about the racing-world and then later they get the most beautiful mentor & student relationship
And, yes, his growth in 2 is amazing. I didn't feel like he grew alot due to not really being the main-character (I love how his expression immediately changes to angry when Francesco is insulting Mater and all those little scenes that show that he is such a great character even at the begining) but, growth definitely happens and both movies are just written incredibly good and you can't not love it
Thanks for clarifying stuff about Cars 3. I remembered 1 and 2 from my childhood and 3 came out when I was much older (I lost faith in sequels that came out much later. I saw so many bad ones) and I watched 3 in the theater and the only thing I remember is that I didn't like it (but, I was, like, 13, so realistically that means nothing). I might give it a try, when you say, it's good. Not, that I'd remember the finale, but what alternative ending? (I'm asking so many questions! I'm so sorry!)
Here I am ahah! I know it's pretty long I just love these topics so much๐
Ok so for spoilers I probably misanderstood I thought you still had to see the third movie idk why?! But personally I was 13 as well the year it came out and I saw it (2003 gang?๐) and at first I had a weird relationship with it cause I knew it was one I couldn't just rewatch costantly, it is still a much darker and more sad movie๐ฅบbut now growing up and understanding every aspect of it I really like it, especially for the finale they chose and I'm talking about Lightning's one of course. So when you feel like watching it again, you should definitely try๐
So the spoilers probably remain for the book "Struked by lightning" released in 2017 where basically we are told about Lightning's life before he entered the Piston Cup๐and also more about some of the RS gang lives before arriving in Radiator Springs๐aaand the tv show Cars On The Road that came out in 2022 (on Disney plus or Disney junior on youtube): it involves Lightning and Mater on a road trip to Mater's sister's wedding! There are 9 episodes, and in each of them there is always something new to discover about our protagonists, what they like and more about their personality, it's so good I had so much fun watching it and finding out these things!
Oh! And also, about the alternative endings and cut scenes, it's all on YouTube!๐
A part from this I didn't disagree on what you said๐คI agreed on it! And wanted to participate to the discussion, I love to analyze these movies and Lightning's character in particular so much!๐ฅฐ
He definitely has those behaviours in the beginning and makes Sally pretty uncorfortable in the court scene so I'm just glad he immidiately understands that she won't fall for it, he doesn't insist, he just gets angry from the rejection and just tries to go away from the town as soon as possible, trying to mentain his fake-arrogantself, but after Doc also puts him in his place and he's forced to stay, he starts working seriously (also to prove that he can handle anything lol) and then feels more and more ashamed of his early behaviours as time progresses and he starts knowing all the townies: in the scene where he comes back to the cozy cone with Mater after tractor tipping he says, at least in my language, "she doesn't even stand me..." assuming what Sally thinks because of how he treated her... and maybe she did in the beginning reasonably๐
But then he's really surprised to hear that Mater considers him his best friend (adorable moment there cause he for sure didn't believe anyone would say that, at least not so quickly) and before that the same day is Sally herself that genuinely surprises him by thanking him for his work and allowing him to stay at the cozy cone, so when he says "Wait you're being nice to me" he tries to act cool but deep down he's happy and relieved that she didn't "give up on him" in a sort of way, and he gets really excited when he believes Mater saw her in the distance somewhere (I love that scene the boy is so in love but so ingenuous, this himboโค) and from these moments on he gets better and better, but yeah it happens definitely fast... but also gradually, it's so good!
Agree in the second movie he had even less time on the screen but he still shows his protective side with Mater through all the movie and develops even more!
In the third one eeeeven more... I have to admit here, and it might be more unpopular opinion material now, that I found it a little forced on him sometimes, like he's the ONLY one who needs to learn and be a better person, when all of the characters around are always portraited as "the victims" of the bad situations that are shown...idk maybe it's just me but I can't help but feel this way๐ฅดI mean I know we are looking at his journey, but still...๐
Omg this was so long too aaaaah!!
IT'S FREAKING SEPTEMBER FIFTH Y'ALL!!!!!

Lightning: I could get lost in your eyes.
Sally: You got lost driving in a straight line.
Just themโค
Found more about that alternative plot for cars 3!!
And the alternative version of this scene:
If they separate the two things, racing and spy/action kinda worlds into two different lines of movies it would have been so interesting to see how this would have been... agree with a comment that said that this dark plots are so interesting but not when it forces itself into the original cast and their very grounded plots.
I''m sooo glad for how Cars 3 became in the end, closing in full circle with the first movie *chef kiss* but I was and on the edge of my seat looking at these storyboards, I could watch the entire thing even if it was just dubbed storyboards, so thrilling!
Sooo not only was a Cars series for Disney Jr announced to release in 2027, earlier this morning I find out Cars 3 was originally going to be Lightning McQueen becoming a victim of identity theft
wait what? :O
@champmorado
OMG WHAT IS THIS IT' AMAZING!! Weird maybe, a little, but so cool!!! And Mcqueen proposing!?!?! I'm dying!!!!!๐ญBut I got so much into it I wanna know how it goes on!!!!๐ซ
Made by mex_rs16 on Instagram, I found this pic this morning
It's such a dark plot I would have loved to see it finished!!!๐ญ
Okay. So. I finally got around to watching Cars on the Road, and to say that I am pleasantly surprised is an understatement.
I haven't stopped smiling/thinking about it for at least an hour.
The first thing that I noticed was the animation, how much life they put into everything. I was not at all expecting that kind of quality, let alone visuals. It was so fun, expressive, and absolutely amazing. The plot itself was very silly, or at least the mini ones that McQueen and Mater got themselves into, but yeah.
But the second thing that got me were the problems. Despite how silly and fun the show itself was, what they handled were still at least somewhat serious. Like Mater almost dying/crashing (Really trying not to take this one seriously but Still), him and McQueen fighting, the issues he had with his sister? Amazing.
Then, and THEN. The random pieces of lore we got about Lightning himself.
Apparently he's a complete, adorable nerd. Not just about dinosaurs (Because oh my GOD I would have never guessed he'd be like that but now it makes sense why he likes Dinoco so much, at least partly????) but about movie making! Or at least actors! And he has a clown phobia! These are things I would have never seen coming in a million years but oh my god does it flesh out his character even more for me.
But, it does leave me with one question: Where the heck is Lightning McQueen's own family?
Like almost everyone else talks about their family, parents even. Mater (Obviously), Cruz, Sally (I think a little at least), and even Francesco. But we don't get even a HINT about where McQueen comes from??? Am I the only one who's a little stumped about this????
I know there are hcs out there that he comes from an unfortunate household, to say the least, and I would totally get behind that. But I just dunno, I think it's so weird that that's happening with the main character of the franchise. Are they ever gonna do anything about that??
Anyway. That's my little rant about that. If there was one thing that I wish for this show, it's that I'd love to see the episodes go just a little longer, but it is also Disney. So.
THISSSS!!! This were my exact thoughts when I finished watching COTR. We get to know so much more about Lightning, much more than I ever expected and I absolutely loved every second of it. BUT the big question still remains, how does everyone has a family, talks about it but him!? The protagonist of the whole franchise!?! I mean ik he finds his family in radiator springs and he tells them something about his past, like his real name but... where the hell does he come from? Who gave you that name sweetheart?! I NEED ANSWERS PLEASE PIXARR!!!!๐ญ
Sooo not only was a Cars series for Disney Jr announced to release in 2027, earlier this morning I find out Cars 3 was originally going to be Lightning McQueen becoming a victim of identity theft

Bonus:
Wanted to post some Cars gif to celebrate 19 years of the most beautiful movie but I didn't have it ready, so here's some salqueen instead I love themโค
ALSO
This is a close up of Lightning looking at Sally thank me later:
Happy to be back! Hope I'll find the time needed to complete some gifsets i have in mind!!!๐ฅฐlove you all! <3
cars is obviously about lightning learning to be kinder to others but its also about him learning to be kinder to himself. he's very outwardly confident and cocky but he doesn't treat himself well. he doesn't take care of himself.
one of the first lines in the movie is him saying he didn't eat breakfast before participating in a massive race. he doesn't get new tires at the pit stop even when he really should. he has no friends, or interests/hobbies outside of racing. racing is his entire life.
so towards the end of the movie, after the road in radiator springs is fixed and he goes around the town getting new tires and a paint job, both of which can't be used during races, it shows how much he's grown. not only is he giving the shop owners the customer they've all been waiting for, he's doing something for himself that has nothing to do with his career, probably for the first time in a long time
Thisโค
It's Lightning's dayyy!โก
I'll celebrate him more as he deserves as soon as I can edit a little๐
It's his dayโค
Lightning McQueen sparkling in the morning sun is my aesthetic tbh
Charles Leclerc wins the Italian Grand Prix 2024 at Autodromo Nazionale Monza
I'll always remember this day I was so happy๐ญโค
Iโve had a folder on my desktop calledย โtiresโ for like 4 months thatโs just pics of LMQโs tires, so I figured a little Tumblr appreciation was due! I think tires are cool, just generally speaking, and they smell nice. Big tires, skinny tires, offroad tires, you name itโI JUST THINK THEYโRE NEAT. And because Pixar is Pixar, Lightningโs tires are especially neat.
Racing Tires!!!
In the shot above, from the would-be championship race at Motor Speedway of the South, heโs got his racing tires on. (I mean, obviously, since heโs racing, but.) You can see in this shot that theyโre treadless!ย
On a normal car, if your tires are bald youโre in trouble because youโre gonna slide all over the place and your life will be sad. But in racing, itโs actually preferred. Why? Because more surface area means more contact with the track means more grip. And grip is good. The reason thatโs not true of us plebs on the normal road is because our roads have all kinds of debris on themโand most importantly, water. Without tread, thereโs nowhere for that water or debris to go, so you end up driving on water instead of on road, aka hydroplaning. Which is not fun.
Civilian Tires!!
But once Lightningโs off the track, we see him switch into treaded tires for civilian use.ย These are the tires are the last rites that we see Not Chuck and the other pitties administering during his interview with Kori Turbowitz.
Whitewall Tires!!
Later on, Luigi puts him in very lightly treaded whitewalls:
Pullinโ out the good stuff! None of those tractor treat snow tires. :P
Nicer, Sportier Civvies!!
In Cars 2 it kinda looks like he wears racing tires literally the entire movie for some reason, but that could just be that my file is too low-quality to see tire tread. But anyway, in Cars 3, we see that Lightning has opted for a different tread pattern on his civvies.
These look to me like a directional tread pattern. The V-shape is supposed to be especially good at shunting water away from your contact patch, making them ideal for driving in inclement circumstances, or on wet surfaces (like, for instance, sand or mud). A+ choice for your future Cars 3 adventures, Lightning. XD
More Racing Tires!!
From what we see in Cars 1 or Cars 3, Lightning pretty much only wears racing slicks when heโs on the track, or immediately about to be. (I mean, the winner of the race hadnโt even been announced yet and Lightning was already getting fitted with normal tires.)ย
When he arrives at the Rusteze Racing Center, heโs already in said racing tires, which means heโs not there to get the tour, or chum around, or reach for his lunch. Heโs ready for business. Like, immediately.
โฆNo More Racing Tiresย ๐ฆ
I actually think this next cap is really sad, even though it only makes logical sense that after the simulator fiasco, we see heโs changed back into civvies again.
I say itโs only logical because after you wreck a multi-million dollar simulator of course youโre done for the day, uh.ย
Yet seeing him out of the racing tires is a stark contrast to how readyย he was when he first arrives at the Center. This shot is from just before Lighting enters Sterlingโs office, where Sterling is waiting to tell him that Lightning wonโt be going to Florida, and he wonโt be racing for Rusteze. Those tires are just one more visual emphasis that racing? That whole thing? Your whole life? Thatโs over. Itโs not time now to hang it upโitโs already happened. Why canโt you see this, Lighting? Sterling asks, in not so many words.
Youโre already done.
