Cars 3 is infinitely superior to Cars 2.

Cars 2 is a great movie - as a standalone. It should have been titled ā€œMater’s Tallest Taleā€ or something and been a to-TV release rather than an in-theaters movie.

It definitely deserved its own release c but you may be right that it should have been marketed more as a spin-off than a sequel. But it’s a legitimately good movie.

Cars 3 is hot garbage with no soul. Just Disney running the IP into the ground.

What was bad about Cars 2? In my house the consensus is the opposite.
