Talk:Cars (franchise)

Contested deletion
This page should not be speedy deleted because... I am still working on it and it will not just be about Cars (film). It will only be about some information about this movie and the next movie (Cars 2). Can I have 24 hours?--TAR2C (talk) 04:18, 28 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Cars 2 already has an article Cars 2. -- Addi hockey  10  e-mail 04:39, 28 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Who deleted parts of the article? USER:TAR2C —Preceding undated comment added 16:53, 28 June 2011 (UTC).
 * I did. The Easter eggs you pointed out are unreferenced and the franchise section was completely redundant to the lede. BOVINEBOY 2008 16:56, 28 June 2011 (UTC)
 * This article will mostly be used like the Toy Story (franchise) article and will mostly include general info about Cars and Cars 2 and everything else, so don't delete it. BTW should we merge all that Cars toons and shorts into this article? We should consider moving any franchise, merchandising info, and any other general info about Cars, from the original Cars article to this article. Since the original Cars article should only be about the first movie, and any other general info that is not Cars 2 should be here instead. Giggett (talk) 20:29, 28 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Everything Cars, Cars 2, Mater's Tall Tales, Mater and the Ghostlight, and other Cars films/shorts should be included on the page. I insist that the page is NOT deleted because it includes accurate information about the series. If there is incorrect information on the page, then that will hopefully be looked into, but for now, I propose that the page be protected and NOT deleted. --64.231.206.120 (talk) 23:23, 10 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Don't worry, I think we all decided that this page is gonna stay :) Giggett (talk) 23:26, 10 July 2011 (UTC)

Better
Dear Giggett. Do not rv my edits again. It makes the article look better. The standard version looks weird. Canihuan300 (talk) 13:58, 17 July 2011 (UTC)


 * It's not whether you like it or not, the standard version is how it must be. Unless you can find another article, that uses your version, please do not revert my edit again. Giggett (talk) 22:59, 17 July 2011 (UTC)

Fork for video games?
There are enough video games for an article about Cars video games. I think it's a subject worth covering if someone wants to make that happen. ButOnMethItIs (talk) 19:11, 29 August 2011 (UTC)
 * I disagree. Toy Story has more video games but it doesn't have a special article about them. Beside that, half the articles about the Cars games are more or less empty, so another article would just duplicate whatever little is written about them. I think that the video games section on this article just needs to be cleaned. Those release dates for the every region are unnecessary, and could be summarized with just a year. --Carniolus (talk) 19:45, 29 August 2011 (UTC)
 * @Carniolus - The release dates for the video games is just a summary of all the dates of all the video game articles about Cars. Since there is so much articles and so many dates, that is why I putted them all in one table, if it's too big I can shrink it.
 * @ButOnMethItIs - You are right, a single article covering all the video games would be nice, but only if we delete all the other seperate video game articles already there and combine them all into one.

Useless characters
Why is the cast and character section filled with unimportant and barely notable characters? For example, John Lassitire, Jerry the Tugboat, Mack Recycled Battery's? Why should a car based on John Lasseter be included in the list? If we are going to have a cast and character section, we need to add ONLY characters who played vital roles in the films. Adding trivial characters only makes the list look bigger and more confusing. ( Zucat)

Based Upon
I'm surprised nobody has pointed out in the article about how Disney basically stole the whole premise for the movie "Cars." Everyone knows that the Wigwam Motels that used to line Route 66 was the basis for the Cone motel in the movie. And the Wigwam Motel in Holbrook, Arizona, which is still open for business, has a lot of old cars parked around it that inspired certain vehicles in the movie. Disney is bad about being cheap and stealing ideas like this. Shouldn't the Wigwam Villages at least be mentioned as inspiration? HaarFager (talk) 02:24, 11 October 2017 (UTC)
