I was in my late 30′s when “Cars” came out. I was not too old. As an adult, I enjoyed it on many levels. The art was exceptional. The story good now matter how old, I collect some of the toys, watch the movie with friends and list “Cars” as one of the top three movies I’ve ever seen. Don’t worry about “being too old to see it” when it comes out. Just enjoy it!
