By expanding the Cars world, ‘Planes’ gave us a whole new set of fun-filled situations and a great opportunity to introduce some fantastic new characters,” commented John Lasseter, Chief Creative Officer, Walt Disney and Pixar Animation Studios. “The team at DisneyToon Studios has done such an amazing job creating a heartfelt story filled with great comedy, adventure, and emotion.

V8 Supercars announced a unique partnership with Disney Pixar International to commence the 2011 season, bringing yet another global company to the portfolio of partners backing the sport.

On the eve of the season opening test day at Eastern Creek Raceway , reigning V8 Supercars Champion James Courtney, TeamVodafone’s Jamie Whincup and Craig Lowndes and Ford Performance Racing pair Mark Winterbottom and Will Davison unveiled the first stage of the Disney partnership - the famous ‘MACK’ character from the famous movie CARS.

It was the first appearance of the life-size MACK transporter, which forms the center piece of Radiator Springs, a mobile themed attraction providing a mix of fun and interactive activities for the entire family.

“Anyone with young children knows that Disney Pixar’s CARS is one of the most popular family movies of our time,” Winterbottom said.

“I’m absolutely thrilled to present this world-first, full-scale replica of MACK the Transporter from CARS, built by Mack Trucks Australia.

“For the first time ever, Australian CARS fans will have the opportunity to get up close and immerse themselves completely in the CARS universe.”

“This unique Disney- Pixar Cars Truck Tour brings together the excitement and adrenaline from the big screen to the rack track and will allow families and fans to experience all the fun and excitement of the Cars characters they love and the exhilarating racing atmosphere of the V8 Supercar competition,” said Kylie Watson-Wheeler, General Manager, Licensing - The Walt Disney Company.

“It is the perfect lead up to the release of ‘Cars 2’ later this year in June.”

The Disney Pixar’s CARS Truck Tour 2011 themed installation features a number of entertainment zones and themed activity stations, providing a whole new level of synergy between the CARS universe and the real world.

This live themed installation has been created with a keen focus on engaging families by giving them a unique and immersive experience inside the CARS universe.

“To be able to announce this unique partnership is another fantastic news story for V8 Supercars and a tremendous synergy with our mantra of growing our already significant youth audience at our world class events,” V8 Supercars CEO Martin Whitaker said.

“Having world famous partners such as Disney and Pixar is a coup for V8 Supercars that will further drive the brand as an engaging sport for all of the family. It will compliment our existing ‘rock n race’ format so that we can capture multiple audiences at our events, providing entertainment for kids, youth and adults.”

Cars Land Topping Out & Rides

David — Mon, 24 Jan 2011 09:22:06 +0000

Cars Land Topping Out Event And A Sneak Peak At The Exciting Rides

“Topping out” is a traditional construction event among construction workers and engineers that takes place when the highest piece of steel is installed on the frame of a building. This ceremony, which took place last November marked a major milestone in the construction of this new and exciting land.

As part of the tradition, the final beam is painted white and signed by the ironworkers, steel design engineer and construction management. This piece of steel will be part of the Pinnacle of the Cadillac Range, representing a 1959 Cadillac, whose tail fin was also known as the Pinnacle.

Several key people were on hand to explain the significance of this milestone, including Vice President of Disney California Adventure park, Mary Niven, Walt Disney Imagineer Kathy Mangum, and Walt Disney Imagineer Jim Kearns.

Cars land Topping Out

The media which was present at the event watched the “topping out” ceremony for the Cadillac Mountain Range’s tallest peak. At 125 feet, it’s the most visible part of the new 12-acre Cars Land, which is scheduled to open in 2012.

At the base of this mountain range will be the entrance to Radiator Springs Racers, the E-ticket thrill ride which will headline Cars Land along with other attractions, food and merchandise shops all based on the Disney-Pixar blockbuster, “Cars.”

Disney Pixar Stamps

David — Mon, 03 Jan 2011 11:14:30 +0000

The New Disney/Pixar Send a Hello stamps From The United States Postal Service Would Be Available On August 2011

The United States Postal Service today announced its commemorative stamp program for 2011 and it includes some very familiar faces, fictional and not, including friends from several Disney/Pixar films.

The Send a Hello stamps are a natural outgrowth of the Art of Disney stamp series issued between 2004 and 2008. Originally intended as a series of three annual issuances depicting friendship, celebration, and romance, the Art of Disney stamps proved so popular that the Postal Service expanded the series to include issuances in 2007 and 2008 to celebrate imagination and magic. The Send a Hello series is meant to encourage people to connect with their loved ones via the United States Postal Service.

With an already established and well-received relationship, the Postal Service was eager to again work with the Walt Disney Company, this time choosing to explore the Disney/Pixar films, which offer exciting, contemporary characters and strong themes involving family and friends

The 2011 Disney/Pixar Send a Hello stamps will be released on August 19, 2011.

The pane of 20 stamps includes five different designs featuring Pixar characters: Lightning McQueen and Mater from Cars (2006); Remy and Linguini from Ratatouille (2007); Buzz Lightyear and two of the green, three-eyed aliens from Toy Story (1995); Carl Fredricksen and Dug from Up (2009); and WALL*E from WALL*E (2008).

Now, here are a couple of selections from the Cars 2 press release, offering even more details on Pixar’s high-octane sequel.

Cars 2 Cast & Crew

Voice Talent: Owen Wilson, Larry the Cable Guy
Director: John Lasseter (Confirmed!)
Co-director: Brad Lewis (Formerly Director)
Producer: Denise Ream (Assoc. Producer, UP)
Composer: Michael Giacchino (Confirmed!)

Cars 2 Plot Synopsis Update

"Star racecar Lightning McQueen and the incomparable tow truck Mater take their friendship to exciting new places in “Cars 2” when they head overseas to compete in the first-ever World Grand Prix to determine the world’s fastest car. But the road to the championship is filled with plenty of potholes, detours and hilarious surprises when Mater gets caught up in an intriguing adventure of his own: international espionage.

Torn between assisting Lightning McQueen in the high-profile race and towing the line in a top-secret spy mission, Mater’s action-packed journey leads him on an explosive chase through the streets of Japan and Europe, trailed by his friends and watched by the whole world. Adding to the fast-paced fun is a colorful new all-car cast that includes secret agents, menacing villains and international racing competitors."

Cars 2 Jets To Japan

Lightning McQueen (voice of Owen Wilson) and Mater (voice of Larry the Cable Guy) take their friendship to exciting new destinations when McQueen is tapped for the first-ever World Grand Prix to determine the world’s fastest car. First stop, Tokyo, Japan—where ancient tradition meets modern technology. But like a modern-day Samurai, Mater must play the part of a top-secret spy when he’s unknowingly embroiled in a case of international espionage.

Passport To Paris

There’s no place in the world like Radiator Springs, but Paris comes close! Lightning McQueen and Mater venture abroad for the first-ever World Grand Prix. While McQueen focuses on the races, his best friend Mater hits a few detours. International espionage, anyone? On his top-secret mission, Mater takes the scenic route and manages to see the Parisian sights—including the Eiffel Tower, Arc de Triomphe and the famous car-goyles of Notre Dame.

Cars 2 Goes Hlobal

Star racecar Lightning McQueen heads overseas next summer to compete in the first-ever World Grand Prix to determine the fastest car on the planet. McQueen and his best friend Mater make a pit stop in London, but there’s no time for tea when an international spy plot entangles Mater, and McQueen must race before royalty.

To The Big Screen & Beyond

It’s an international feast of epic proportions when star racecar Lightning McQueen and lovable tow truck Mater travel to Porto Corsa, Italy, for the first-ever World Grand Prix. The pair will have to bypass the Italian Riviera’s specialties—boating, beaches and pasta al pesto—as Mater is detoured on a top-secret spy mission and McQueen must race to win against the world’s best!
