Is knowing Cars 2 required to fully enjoy Cars 3?
I have a DVD with the first Disney/Pixar Cars movie. My nearly 3 years old son watches it all over again. We did not see Cars 2. I'd like to take him to cinema for Cars 3.
Are there many references to Cars 2? Will we get confused or fail to catch all the funny moments?
Best Answer
No. Cars 3 doesn't reference Cars 2 at all.
Cars 3 is more of a direct sequel to Cars (the first one).

Does Cars 3 ignore Cars 2?
But Cars 3 roars back with a vengeance. It ignores Cars 2 completely. There are no characters from Cars 2 in Cars 3. It's a choice that borders on snub territory.Is Cars 2 referenced in Cars 3?
The events of Cars 2 are never mentioned in Cars 3, and lessons learned in Cars 2 now have to be relearned. Pixar probably wants to forget about the second movie and so has made Cars 3 with only the first movie's plot in mind.Is Cars 2 and Cars 3 canon?
Yes. Cars 2 is canon to the franchise, making it the second installment of the film series. Well Cars 3 had no references to Cars 2. Actually, Cars 3 does has some references to Cars 2.Is Cars 2 OK for kids?
It has the same main characters from the first Cars movie, but is a completely new story that follows the adventures of the tow truck Tow Mater. You should note that Cars 2 isn't recommended for children under seven. The movie is too long for younger children, its plot is too complex, and it also contains adult themes.Cars 3 DELETED SCENES \u0026 Alternate Endings
