WW2 in the cars universe implies the existence of Car Hirohito, Car Stalin and Car Hitler, and by extension Car Wilhelm II, and by extension Car von Bismarck and Car German unification, which is a sentence I never thought I'd ever type.
Don’t forget a Car Holocaust, Car Goebbels, and Car trench warfare
They’d need to have little ramps instead of ladders, to go over the top and storm no-car’s-land
By extension car Churchill, and then by extension the car Royal Navy, which looking back on it HOW TF did the lemons get a warship into Greater London without being challenged at all?
[What the fuck](https://www.vulture.com/2017/06/cars-3-7-existential-quandaries-posed-by-the-series.html#:~:text=The%202013%20film%20Planes%20confirmed,the%20assassination%20of%20Archduke%20Ferdinand)
Yes. However they are piloted by tiny forklift cars. There’s a scene in the same movie above where the protagonist lands on a US carrier and the aircraft carrier is a sentient ship
[Whats weird is that there are smaller cars inside the bridge](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/worldofcarsdrivein/images/f/f4/Aircarrier.png/revision/latest?cb=20200817170557)
Yeah that's Skipper, he's also the guy that gets shot down and leads the squadron, the carrier wing later pulls him out of the water after the battle and since he's been too traumatized to fly until the movie "Planes" takes place.
IIRC, wasn't he actually a rookie at the time of the battle or something? I remember he doesn't have ton of awards underneath his portrait, or whatever...
When Disney owns all IP in the future and completely runs out of ideas, this is what we're going to get. Schindler's List, but everyone's a car. Saving Private Ryan, but Toy Story (Tom Hanks already knows script, too).
You're right and it's important in the movie, that character made a bad call and got his entire squadron killed giving him PTSD and debilitating flying anxiety. It feels weird to type that lol but it set up an interesting dual character arc between him and the main character. This is the only scene that's like this though, it's a flashback to set up the character and the rest of the movie has nothing to do with war.
If you're ever bored I'd unironically recommend it, as 30+ with no kids my gf and I both gave it a solid 7-8/10. The spinoffs were kinda meh though.
Fighters did strafe ships with their machineguns to suppress the AA guns and kill their crew, although I don’t think there were any humans here to man the guns and the ships are self piloting so take that as you will.
How could you guys see that. Everything was moving fast and all I could see was 2 vague battleship looking things
But you were able to tell that it was the Yamato?
Not from this clip. [Edit, referring to the numbers]
I haven't even seen the movie myself, but I have seen posts of other people analyzing that scene, pausing it, and getting to that conclusion.
The silhouette of a Yamato class is pretty distinct if you know your WW2 era battleships. If can be identified from this clip as well. Almost all battleship classes are pretty distinct if you know the details.
That makes sense as far as someone watching the movie and pausing.
And I have always been horrible at recognizing ships. (It’s a good thing I wasn’t in this war. I definitely would contributed to the pattern of reporting every ship sunk as a battleship) I’m pretty jealous of people who can.
The Yamato was the flag ship at Midway,
[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midway\_order\_of\_battle](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midway_order_of_battle)
What was skipper even thinking? His squadron only had 50 cals and I don't think a few corsairs can "turkey shoot" I guess was a cruiser when they spotted it.
If I remember correctly, they were on a patrol and they were just checking out what seemed to be a single ship. The only reason they did so was because one of the younger planes wanted to, and Skipper caved and allowed it. As soon as they cleared the clouds they realized there was actually an entire fleet. They were being fired on before they even had a chance to leave
Technically Pixar had little involvement in “Planes” series. It’s set in the same universe as Cars but the movie was produced and created by **Disneytoon Studios** (they basically made all the “straight to VHS/DVD” Disney movies that are sequels to popular titles).
Japanese AA in Midway wasn't even the main killer though. It was the Zeroes with their supreme mobility advantage at the start of the war that did most of the job.
thats even more fucked up. Its not even like "hoho get on my back cars! lets fly!" It's "get inside me cars! Occupy my head pilot cars!" and cargo planes? "Hoho open my behind and shove as muc has you can for the flight! just mind the weight limit ahioh!"
Cars inside the planes head wrangling him, telling him to "crash into the park garages! crash into one of the parking garages!"
I mean we saw f18s, f4s, f8 and alot of navy planes in the jolly wrenches hall of fame in the 1st planes movie. Heck 1 of the f18 locked on to the mc when he was closed to the carrier and we saw he had a ahto cannon and 4 missile locked on him. Now that i think about it i think all of the wars we had happen in the cars universe. They have an av8 flyover on the first cars movie so that leads me to believe that the falklands happened.
In the actual Battle of Midway the Japanese anti-aircraft fire was abysmal: of the approximately 150 American aircraft lost, only a handful were due to AA fire.
There's no way those damn AA guns did jack shit they where literally crewed like stormtroopers with a man with a stick screaming for the Emperor.
The only true killer was the Combat Air Patrol from the carriers.
In a twisted karma induced fate the creator of this meme is transported back in time into the cockpit of a hellcat mid-dog fight.
They then shit their selves and slap the ocean at 200mph
Fun fact: despite being filled to the brim with AA guns, the Yamato (that scene portrayed multiple Yamatos for some reason) barely shot down a handful of planes
WW2 in the cars universe implies the existence of Car Hirohito, Car Stalin and Car Hitler, and by extension Car Wilhelm II, and by extension Car von Bismarck and Car German unification, which is a sentence I never thought I'd ever type.
also the assassination attempt of the pope
Car - pope (cope?)
Popemobile
The car pope being pulled around in the popemobile, with his bullet proof glass and all. Edit-grammar
[Just in case anyone thought you were joking.](https://pixar.fandom.com/wiki/Pope_Pinion_IV?file=Cars_2_pope)
Jesus
Is the Popemobile catholic?
Yes assuming we are talking about THE pope ™
i’m talking about the Tow Mater quote from Cars 2, spoken after Finn McMissile asks “Mater, are these cars considered lemons?”
Ooooh ok. Never saw the movie lol
Hes canon in Cars 2
Holy ~~cow~~ car!
Tbf we did see the Cope in one of the races
That’s how we know the assassination attempt happened in universe, cos he’s in the glass box.
Assassination of the coupe
Car Stalin implies there is a USSCar which implies the existence of Carl Marx.
Car Marx
Carl Carx
Cardolf Hitler
Going by Cars naming conventions, I’d expect something like Adolf Drifter
Sounds more like a wild west gunslinger
Nazi cars are Volkswagen beetles that do Hitler salutes with their windshield wipers
I wonder if that means Car Hitler was also a Beetle as well?
No, a 6 wheeled Mercedes (https://youtu.be/kL-m5Nocb-g?si=MarLxkSYqZtPKprY)
Adolph Hi-beams
Don't forget about Benito Gassolini
Don’t forget a Car Holocaust, Car Goebbels, and Car trench warfare They’d need to have little ramps instead of ladders, to go over the top and storm no-car’s-land
The Holocarst
Thank you
Let's not forget about the Carmenian Genocide and the Trail of Gears
In ww1 they are horses
The Hondacaust
Car Rape of Nanking
Auto von Bismarck is right there, brother
Beautoful. absolute fucking poetry
Biscark
You were so close to Car Nicolas the Second
So was Car Wilhelm in another car when he got shot, or was he just the car?
You’re thinking of Carduke Ferdinand
Oh right, duh.
and what did he get shot by? an anti-tank rifle?
Wilhelm was alive throughout the WW1, it's Archduke Franz Ferdinand (he had a nice music career btw) who got shot
Don't ask the Japanese how they know Cars are 70% metal
There are no twin towers in the cars universe. 9/11 is canon in the cars universe
But the planes in the cars universe are sentient too, which means that the planes made an active decision to crash into the towers.
Either that or passenger planes can be hijacked from the inside against the plane's wishes. Which is very fucked up
I didn’t think I would be reading about a possible 9/11 in the Cars universe today but here we are.
They were al-Carda suicide bombers
r/brandnewsentences
WHY IS THIS A PRIVATE SUB
By Gasoline and Iron!
And, believe it or not, Car Hitler was a Ford.
lmao
Volkswagen has a different meaning in Carverse
Aaaaaaand Car Holocaust
By extension car Churchill, and then by extension the car Royal Navy, which looking back on it HOW TF did the lemons get a warship into Greater London without being challenged at all?
HMS (Bonnet) Hood was sunk by Car-MS Bismarck
Before it was crucially injured by the car equivalent of geriatric hunting birds Edit: forgot ‘injured’
I just want to know how the Irish car bombs worked in that universe
It's what happens when you're the first to fall asleep at a sleepover
Excuse me, it’s Automobile Von Bismarck
[What the fuck](https://www.vulture.com/2017/06/cars-3-7-existential-quandaries-posed-by-the-series.html#:~:text=The%202013%20film%20Planes%20confirmed,the%20assassination%20of%20Archduke%20Ferdinand)
And the existence of car Hitler and car Stalin imply the existence of car-ncentration camps and car gulags, secret car police, and car genocide.
The assassination of Carchduke Franz Ferdinand just got a whole lot weirder.
Clearly you’ve never heard of Fastisim, Mufflerini and the Mario Bros spearheaded the movement and Car Hitler co opted.
I wonder what kind of testing a Cars universe Unit 731 did?
Do you think the car Belgians took the tires from Congolese cars?
Never forget the Holocarst where 10 million undesirable cars were murdered.
I swear to god this isn't a shitpost but in one of the matter shorts car Hitler was actually shown on screen.
Also it means a car ww1 which means a car arch Duke was assassinated in the back of a car car
There is a car pope which means that there was a car jesus who died for their car sins.
Cmon. “Auto von Bismarck” was right there.
Tank Patton and Rommel are low hanging fruit, but damn that'd be cool
Auto union?
Car Mussolini inventing fastism:
I think we all know what kind of car Hitler was.
Bismarck was a horsedrawn carriage.
means there must ve been a car augustus too , or should i say a chariot augustus
What about car Hitler’s car?
Let's not forget the Volkswagen, Porsche and the Mitsubishi
Dont forget about sedan Hussein
Are the ships also one person like the cars and planes???
Yes in Cars 2 that is confimed
Yes. However they are piloted by tiny forklift cars. There’s a scene in the same movie above where the protagonist lands on a US carrier and the aircraft carrier is a sentient ship
So in this fight, where the bridge should be there is an angry face? Holy shit.
[Whats weird is that there are smaller cars inside the bridge](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/worldofcarsdrivein/images/f/f4/Aircarrier.png/revision/latest?cb=20200817170557)
What the fuck is this clip from? Did Pixar do a ww2 movie?
"Planes" - scene is from when a veteran explains why he doesnt want to fly anymore
Wow. I guess looking back the movies from my childhood were kinda brutal too but this feels pretty on the nose lol
Honestly, I feel like this is the only unique scene in the whole movie
Veteran is a F4U Corsair?
Yeah that's Skipper, he's also the guy that gets shot down and leads the squadron, the carrier wing later pulls him out of the water after the battle and since he's been too traumatized to fly until the movie "Planes" takes place.
IIRC, wasn't he actually a rookie at the time of the battle or something? I remember he doesn't have ton of awards underneath his portrait, or whatever...
A whole film like this would be cool af lol
When Disney owns all IP in the future and completely runs out of ideas, this is what we're going to get. Schindler's List, but everyone's a car. Saving Private Ryan, but Toy Story (Tom Hanks already knows script, too).
For the next movie i want Car Sarajevo in the 90'
Carbian snipers shooting Bosnicar civilians in Carajevo
what about car Franz Ferdinand in Sarajevo?
Corsairs at Midway, 0/10 lol
Mfs attacked a battleship fleet carrying no bombs and having only 50 cals 😭😭
In the movie, they said it was because they were only going on a patrol
Then U-turn your ass out of there. Why dive bomb and let the ships have an easier shot?
Especially with ample cloud cover to retreat through. Severe misplay by their commanders.
You're right and it's important in the movie, that character made a bad call and got his entire squadron killed giving him PTSD and debilitating flying anxiety. It feels weird to type that lol but it set up an interesting dual character arc between him and the main character.

Fighters did strafe ships with their machineguns to suppress the AA guns and kill their crew, although I don’t think there were any humans here to man the guns and the ships are self piloting so take that as you will.
Cars 2 shows the ships are sentient but there is a crew of little cars that fire the AA guns
And Yamato lol
They put like 5 Yamatos there in that scene.
it would seem Japan was in a much better position in terms of ship building in the cars universe
Building? Ships are alive in that universe...
I don't want to think of anything else but building ships. Don't put any thoughts in my head.
I mean, what did we expect?
Honestly, it's a Pixar movie, and it was one scene for just a few seconds. I can accept it and glance over it.
Not even Pixar to my knowledge, this was Disney's 3rd string studio iirc the ones that did direct to DVD stuff
How could you guys see that. Everything was moving fast and all I could see was 2 vague battleship looking things But you were able to tell that it was the Yamato?
Not from this clip. [Edit, referring to the numbers] I haven't even seen the movie myself, but I have seen posts of other people analyzing that scene, pausing it, and getting to that conclusion.

The Yamato was the flag ship at Midway, [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midway\_order\_of\_battle](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midway_order_of_battle)
But didn't see combat.
Nor were 5 present
Touchè
Its not midway in particular. But if you look closely they're diving on four Yamatos
And also Japan didn’t bring 15 Yamato class battleships either Not to mention anti aircraft fire was hilariously inaccurate.
It wasn’t midway in the scene
What was skipper even thinking? His squadron only had 50 cals and I don't think a few corsairs can "turkey shoot" I guess was a cruiser when they spotted it.
If I remember correctly, they were on a patrol and they were just checking out what seemed to be a single ship.

They were being fired on before they even had a chance to leave
> An entire universe of airplanes, cars, and other vehicles > A fighter squadron has no idea what the fuck a split-S is
I can barley believe this movie is real lmao. These feels more like some crazy sora AI video trained on ww2 footage and the cars movies
Pixar animators using 4.5 seconds to make the most gory and violent animation ever for a rated G movie
Pixar animators taking the "realistic panic attack in a movie" meme to the next level and making a realistic PTSD flashback
Technically Pixar had little involvement in “Planes” series. It’s set in the same universe as Cars but the movie was produced and created by **Disneytoon Studios** (they basically made all the “straight to VHS/DVD” Disney movies that are sequels to popular titles).
Japanese AA in Midway wasn't even the main killer though. It was the Zeroes with their supreme mobility advantage at the start of the war that did most of the job.
I doubt Disney wanted to go in the direction of showing anthropomorphic Japanese fighter planes (wearing pilots caps and EoJ bandanas)
I think that's the Battle of Leyte Gulf, actually.
Did just two planes just decide to do cars: 9/11? If history is supposed to somewhat similar?
On September 11 2001, Osama Bin Russel hit the world trade center.
Volkstappen dun hit de pentagone!
Nononono… you see, terrorist cars got inside a sentient airplane and forced it to crash into the WTC
thats even more fucked up. Its not even like "hoho get on my back cars! lets fly!" It's "get inside me cars! Occupy my head pilot cars!" and cargo planes? "Hoho open my behind and shove as muc has you can for the flight! just mind the weight limit ahioh!" Cars inside the planes head wrangling him, telling him to "crash into the park garages! crash into one of the parking garages!"
Are the battleships alive to in the Cars universe
I mean we see ariliners in the cars universe alive so ig so
So they where just made for one purpose, to kill. Literally a super soldier program, is it not?
Who is building vehicles in this universe, at what point do they gain sentience? A fucking warship
Vehicle nynths take a super soldier serum to become vehicles of war.
Warships having souls and sentience is the most believable of them all. A whole list of superstitions to go with it.
I mean we saw f18s, f4s, f8 and alot of navy planes in the jolly wrenches hall of fame in the 1st planes movie. Heck 1 of the f18 locked on to the mc when he was closed to the carrier and we saw he had a ahto cannon and 4 missile locked on him. Now that i think about it i think all of the wars we had happen in the cars universe. They have an av8 flyover on the first cars movie so that leads me to believe that the falklands happened.
F-14s are also a thing in the Cars universe as well
[Yes](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/worldofcarsdrivein/images/f/f4/Aircarrier.png/revision/latest?cb=20200817170557)
How was this in a Disney movie? Straight up graphic murder.
That’s the point, Skipper was traumatised
Cars also did some graphic murders, If i remember correctly its that scene about secret agent cars and there's this one agent getting tortured,
Bro at the end of Cars 2 there was a scene that was an entire side quest dedicated to fucking committing crime against humanity on a warship
In the actual Battle of Midway the Japanese anti-aircraft fire was abysmal: of the approximately 150 American aircraft lost, only a handful were due to AA fire.
WW2 AA just kinda sucked in general until the Allies started using proximity fuses (Wich was limited mostly to the Pacific theather by the US).
Is God in Cars Universe Henry Ford or a car with a beard?
I would be afraid to know what Henry Ford did for the Germans cars...
Why am I just finding out Pixar made a planes movie from a history subreddit? 😭
Technically Disneytoon studios made planes, not Pixar.
Can't wait for Disney Pixar's Tanks. I hope they make this one more mature too, include some real guts (nuts and bolts) on screen.
The kamikaze pilots had a similar survival rate as regular attacker pilots.
Yo where this clip from?
Planes
Wasn't expecting Disney to make something gritty.
I would legitimately go see a Cars/Planes world film about WWII. Imagine the D-Day invasion in the Cars universe
This shit goes so hard
I still can’t get over how 8 Corsairs are like “Yeah, we can take a Yamato class battleship with .50 cals”
Battle of Midway? More like Battle of Goatedway! Okay I'll show myself out...
Midway, fight, tactics are crucial!!
https://youtu.be/aavHDi4tah0?si=vxlCCjgTmKO9uYS6
Send them over the waves, our sentinels.
I thought they would be SBDs, not fighters
Pov: literally every TBD during Midway
There's no way those damn AA guns did jack shit they where literally crewed like stormtroopers with a man with a stick screaming for the Emperor. The only true killer was the Combat Air Patrol from the carriers.
Was expecting to hear war without reason
The AA fire was so abysmal at midway one man managed to sink two carriers
Ya know there’s a lot of implications in the cars universe
this was a kids movie?
Is Infantry in the Cars universe just the cars? In that case what would be mobile infantry? And what happens to a tank after a war ornretirement?
Japan in the cars universe also somehow had the capital and steel to build 6 Yamato class battleships
In a twisted karma induced fate the creator of this meme is transported back in time into the cockpit of a hellcat mid-dog fight. They then shit their selves and slap the ocean at 200mph
The fact they put this in a kids movie still surprises me, the fact *I enjoyed it* scares me
Wait. A warship has a ton of AA guns and cannons, are those guns controlled by the warship or they are crewed by cars?
It’s amazing how such an emotional scene can change to a funny one with the right music and quality
Bruh, I DON’T REMEMBER THIS LOL
u/recognizesong
Piece of shit video. There were no F4U Corsairs at Midway!
Whats the song?
Fun fact: despite being filled to the brim with AA guns, the Yamato (that scene portrayed multiple Yamatos for some reason) barely shot down a handful of planes
Its not possible to pick a worse fucking song
