I received an all expense paid trip from Disney to attend the #ThorRagnarokEvent. The opinions expressed here are my own. Some interview questions and responses have been edited to improve readability. #Cars3Bluray
Disney Pixar’s Cars films are near and dear to my heart. Cars 2 was released right around my son’s first birthday, so I feel like he grew up with Lightening McQueen. Those DVD’s definitely got their workout! In Cars 3 we get to see McQueen in the next phase of his career and it’s a tear jerker. I wrote my full Cars 3 movie review right after I attended the #Cars3Event press trip in San Fransisco at Pixar Animation Studios. In a nutshell, the movie is everything I hoped it would be plus some. Plan a movie night because Cars 3 races into your home on Digital Oct 24, Blu-ray Nov 7 & New on 4K UHD. The mini-movie starring Miss Fritter is the best! Keep reading to find out what other features are included on the Blu-Ray.
