Therapist Reacts to CARS

Lightning: Speed, I am speed.

Jono: Actually, I think this movie is underrated.

Alan: I love this movie. Jono: Yeah.

Doc: You drive like you fix roads.

Lousy

Jono: Humility is the major lesson and theme of this film.

Sheriff: Boy. You're in a heap of trouble.

Jono: You don't enjoy connection. You don't enjoy life.

if you don't get to really experience things without humility.

Sally: Are you coming or what?

Alan: We only change when the pain of change is less than the pain of staying the same.

Jono: And so the real question is when you are faced with evidence

that you don't have it all figured out, that you don't know everything,

that you have plenty to learn, are you going to double down,

or are you going to level up by acknowledging that there's so much room for growth?

The difference between confidence and arrogance...

We'll get to that later, I'm assuming. I have thoughts.

Alan: Hello and welcome to Cinema Therapy.

I'm Alan Seawright, a professional filmmaker who needs therapy.

I'm joined by my co-host...

Jono: Ka-chow

Alan: N'than Decker.

Jono: Ka-chow N'th... Sure. Why not.

I'm a licensed therapist who loves movies.

Jono: So I take it we're watching Cars.

Alan: We're watching Cars. Jono: Awesome.

Jono: Uh, you know, actually, I think this movie is underrated.

Alan: I love this movie. Jono: Yeah, I...

Alan: I rea-- Look, we're gonna get into the horrifying,

terrible hellscape that is the cars universe, but only a little bit

because it bugs me less in this movie than it does in later films.

Jono: What are you talking about?

Alan: Where are the people?

Why are cars sentient?

How do they get made?

Anyway. Cars.

Jono: I think the Cars universe is the endgame of the Terminator universe. Honestly.

I think this is all Skynet.

I think this was what Skynet was trying to do. And they did it.
