Glorious past is a thing of the past.

A typical Disney family carnival movie, with a small climax racing performance at the beginning, McQueen was frustrated, fell from the altar, regained his original intentions, and regained his glory. And the screenwriter also played something new, the story is not restarted, but inherited. Although there are slightly stiff character conflicts in the middle, and the plot turns are a little deliberate, Cars 3 is still a good animated film.

People, there will always be a midlife crisis, but when the glory days of the past are heard in the bar, I still feel that McQueen can come back to Xuanyuan and go to another peak. But looking back, McQueen really doesn't see the possibility of winning. The replacement of No. 95 is an inheritance, and it is also McQueen's helplessness and choice. Since ancient times, beautiful people are like famous generals, and they are not allowed to see white heads in the world. Most of the people who used to look down on the world were arrogant. When they whispered "Old, old", they did not know how many failures they had experienced. They were repeatedly rubbed on the ground, and then put away their edge and admitted that the years are gone and time is hard to change.

When McQueen saw all kinds of letters from Dr. Lantian to old friends showing off himself, he realized that Dr. Lantian, who lost the track, had found another passion and sustenance. Life, forcing you to move forward, the clouds of the past have mostly dissipated. Learn to see yourself clearly, and you have to admit your current ability if you don’t want to. For example, McQueen’s last give up has nothing to do with escaping, nothing to do with weakness, it’s just the best solution you can do.

Veterans are not immortal, but legends live on.

  • Ramone: [after giving Lightning a new paint job] It's like the Sistine Chapel on wheels.

    Lightning McQueen: [starts riving his engine in front of a mirror] I'm coming for you, Storm.

  • Cruz Ramirez: [Cruz is watching the news with a trophy while Lightning is completely miffed] So... trophy's kinda nice. Don't you think?

    [no response]

    Cruz Ramirez: I-I mean, I know like, you've got a billion of them, so y-you would know.

    [still no response]

    Cruz Ramirez: I still can't believe I won. Heheh. It's pretty shiny. I have never seen one up close. Looks like they spent a lot of money on it, I-I mean, I think it's real metal...

    Lightning McQueen: Stop. Just stop! Okay, Cruz? You don't even know. You don't even have one clue!

    Cruz Ramirez: Hey! I was trying to...

    Lightning McQueen: Do you know what happens if I lose this race?

    [Cruz doesn't answer]

    Lightning McQueen: Every mile of this trip was to get me faster than Jackson Storm. FASTER!

    [Luigi, Guido, and Mack listen on in horror]

    Lightning McQueen: I start off getting nowhere for a week ON A SIMULATOR! I lose a whole day with you on Fireball Beach. AND THEN, I WASTE TONIGHT IN THE CROSSHAIRS OF MISS FRITTER! I'm stuck in the same speed I was a month ago! I can't get any faster BECAUSE I'M TOO BUSY TAKING CARE OF MY TRAINER!

    [Cruz feeling hurt and remains silent]

    Lightning McQueen: This is my last chance, Cruz. Last! Final! FINITO! If I lose, I never get to do this again. If you were a racer, you'd know what I'm talking about! But you're not! So you DON'T!

    [he slams his tire on the wall, causing Cruz's trophy to fall off the shelf and break upon hitting the floor; Cruz is crushed]

    Cruz Ramirez: [furious] Mack, pull over!

    Mack: Wha? Now?

    Cruz Ramirez: NOW!

    [pushes the button]

    Mack: Ahh - Okay okay! Pulling over! Pulling over!

    [Mack pulls over]

    Cruz Ramirez: [exits Mack] Ask me if I dreamed of being a trainer, Mr. McQueen, go ahead! Ask me if I got up in the dark to run laps before school every day! Ask me if I saved every penny to buy a ticket to the races when they came to town. Ask me if I did that so that I could be a trainer someday, ask me!

    Lightning McQueen: Did y - ?

    Cruz Ramirez: No! I've wanted to become a racer forever! Because of you.

    [Lightning is shocked and heartbroken]

    Cruz Ramirez: I used to watch you on TV, flying through the air. You seemed so... fearless. "Dream small, Cruz." That's what my family used to say. "Dream small or not at all." They were just trying to protect me. But, I was the fastest kid in town and I was gonna prove them wrong!

    Lightning McQueen: What happened?

    Cruz Ramirez: When I got to my first race, I figured it out.

    Lightning McQueen: What?

    Cruz Ramirez: That I didn't belong. The other racers looked nothing like me. You know, they-they were bigger, and-and stronger, and so... confident. And when they started their engines... that was it. I knew I'd never be a racer. I just left. It was my one shot and I didn't take it.

    [Lightning feels bad as Cruz decides to leave]

    Cruz Ramirez: Yeah, so, uh... I-I'm gonna head back to the training center. I think we both know it's for the best.

    [starts to drive away, but turns around again]

    Cruz Ramirez: But, can I ask you something? What was it like for you, when you showed up to your first race? How did you know you could do it?

    Lightning McQueen: I don't know, I... I just never thought I couldn't.

    Cruz Ramirez: I wish I knew what that felt like. Good luck, Mr. McQueen.

    [starts driving away]

    Lightning McQueen: Cruz... Cruz, wait...!

    [Cruz ignores him and he sighs]
