Neither of my two children have watched Ratatouille or Brave. I've put it on and tried to get them to watch it, and they may for a little while, and then do something else.
Cars does not wish it was those two lesser movies.
And any of you are yet to explain how Cars was so easy to merchandise.


Because cars are probably the single most popular boy toy in the world?

And yeah, kids getting bored with a movie is an indication of quality. So Cars is a better movie than 2001 just because it's more boring? The ends of both those films makes them superior to Cars IMO.

They are now.

Transformers, GI Joes, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Power Rangers, were all more popular than Hot Wheels, and now Cars sells 5x more than all of those combined, and they have all been making a comeback in the last 5-10 years.

The merchandising for Toy Story is just as easy as Cars, yet Cars has done 4x's more. You can sell a Woody or a Buzz just as easy as a Lightning McQueen or Mater.

It is when it's an animated kids movie. Where was Ratatouille 2 if it was such a good movie?
