cars

We went to see Cars tonight. The last movie we went to as a family was The Incredibles. We saw that at the New Strand in West Liberty. It cost the four of us $15.00 for tickets, and refills on popcorn were free. Great sound. Nice historic theater that has been well renovated. Tonight we went to the googleplex in the Sycamore mall in Iowa City. It cost us $30 to get in. The theater was small and the sound was less then impressive.
The movie was really good. Some very amazing animation at times, but you would expect that from Pixar. What was most impressive to me was the landscape shots. Alex and I both caught a brief shot of a racecar with an apple logo on the hood. Nice touch. Hey I just noticed when I pasted that .jpg that the number on the car is 84. Those guys :-)

You saw the tribute to Cadillac Ranch in the mountains, right?

Yea, I did notice that. Man they are really marketing the heck out of that movie. Kmart has a whole display of just CARS stuff. Lunchboxes, slippers, paper plates....
