Since the first move in 2006, which was the seventh film for Pixar studios, Lightning McQueen, Mater, and all of the other Cars friends have been taking us along on their crazy and exciting in adventures, while also teaching us a lot of important life lessons about friendship, love, family, dreams, and how important it is to be a good human.

10 Funny: On The Road (Cars)

Lightning McQueen is a fancy and well-celebrated race car after having just won the Piston Cup. After the race, McQueen is traveling with his big rig, Mack, to California. Mack is a sixteen-wheeler that looks a lot like a standard semi-truck, except he carries another car, Lightning McQueen to be exact. While Mack carries McQueen across highway roads, he runs into a lot of delinquent road hazards, including a minivan going way too slow and a group of speeding, flashy vehicles complete with flames and fluorescent lighting.

9 Sad: Mack Falls Asleep (Cars)

Lightning McQueen struggles to make friends and goes through numerous pit crews because he is a bit arrogant. McQueen can’t seem to form any real connection with his fellow cars. McQueen is in a rush to get to California for his next race and orders Mack to drive all night.

Mack tells McQueen numerous times that he’s tired and needs to rest, but McQueen insists he keep going and promises to stay awake with Mack on the trip. Of course, McQueen breaks this promise and Mack accidentally falls asleep on the road.

8 Funny: McQueen And Mater Tractor Tip (Cars)

Once in Radiator Springs, Lightning McQueen meets a townie; a rusty old tow truck, named Mater. Mater’s twang and always chipper approach are the exact opposite of everything McQueen is, but the two quickly become friends. In one scene, Mater takes McQueen out to go tractor tipping. Cow tipping is something a lot of country folks may do, but in Radiator Springs, the cows are actually tractors that say “moo” and to tip them Mater and McQueen have to move fast before Frank catches them.

7 Sad: The King Crashes (Cars)

McQueen makes it to the final race for the Piston Cup in California. McQueen races well, even taking the lead as the race nears its finish. It looks like Lightning McQueen is about to win, when suddenly, his opponent Chick, crashes into The King, and sends his opponent flying through the air.

McQueen sees what has happened and knows he can’t finish the race, he needs to do the right thing, so he goes back to help his friend, giving up his first place title, but learning an important lesson in friendship.

6 Funny: Mater’s Bathroom Experience (Cars 2)

In the second Cars movie, the gang heads to Tokyo for the World Grand Prix. Once they land, Mater looks desperately for a bathroom. He gets to two doors and has to decide which is the right one to go in because he’s in a foreign country and can’t read any of the signs. He tries the room on his left, but is quickly greeted by a screaming girl car, so he goes to the bathroom on his right, where he finds a very high-tech stall, complete with a TV and a chapter speaking Japanese. Mater is in awe.

5 Sad: McQueen Yells At Mater (Cars 2)

Lightning McQueen is set to win the first race of the World Grand Prix, but things don’t go according to plan, which McQueen blames Mater for. After the race, McQueen is upset by his loss, to the say the least and he doesn’t hold back letting Mater know how he feels.

Mater tries to explain, but his words don’t make much sense to McQueen and he lets Mater know that he doesn’t want or need Mater’s help anymore. “I made a mistake, and it won’t happen again”, McQueen tells the press loud enough that Mater can hear it.

4 Funny: Mater Eats Wasabi (Cars 2)

Mater is not doing very well in Tokyo. He seems to be the quintessential tourist in unknown territory and gets himself into some pretty silly, and sometimes serious trouble. One of the sillier moments is when Mater spots what he thinks is free ice cream at a sushi stand. Looking at the goods he asks for some of what he thinks is the pistachio flavor. The gentleman behind the counter tries to tell him it’s “wasabi”, to which Mater responds, “Same old, same old, what’s up with you?”

3 Sad: Lightning McQueen Crashes (Cars 3)

Things start to change around the race track, quickly, and McQueen doesn’t like it. More and more, McQueen starts to see his old friends go into retirement, only to be replaced by new, high tech race cars. McQueen doesn’t like this change and he’s determined not to succumb to it.

During one race, a new car, Storm, is on McQueen’s tail. In an effort to beat him, McQueen speeds through his check-up with the pit crew and back onto the track. Storm is close behind and says a few things to get into McQueen’s head, and it works. McQueen loses control and crashes on the track.

2 Funny: The Cars Prank Each Other (Cars 3)

Cars 3 opens with Lightning McQueen in all of his glory. McQueen is racing around the Piston Cup track flying by his opponents and tossing some clever and funny jabs as he does so. McQueen’s favorite opponent Cal Weathers loves to play-fight back and the two have a few quippy exchanges during the race. Once the race is over and McQueen gives an interview after his win, Cal cruises past him with some other cars and they spray him with soap suds and confetti. McQueen returns the favor by over-inflating Cal’s tires.

1 Sad: Cruz Wants To Race (Cars 3)

McQueen’s outbursts always seem to hurt the ones who love him. McQueen and his new trainer, Cruz are traveling with Mack to a race and they begin to argue. McQueen doesn’t think Cruz understands what’s at stake so he uses a harsh tone to remind her and in his fit, knocks over her racing trophy. Cruz asks Mack to stop driving and gets out. It looks like she is about to storm away, but she stays and she tells McQueen that she didn’t want to be a trainer, she wanted to be a racer and it’s because of him that she had that dream, but she never got to make her dream a reality.
