Take "Cars" for a spin.

(AppleInsider) - Walt Disney Co. said Thursday it sold over 5 million DVD copies of Pixar's "Cars" in the first two days it was available for purchase at stores, putting the film on track to be the industry’s top seller in the U.S. during the 2006 calendar year.

So there's YA thing the blabbermongers can stop yammering about: if a film like "Cars" can be in the running for top seller even after spotting everybody else on the track a 10-month head start, "Hollywood values" are in good hands.

I grabbed the last copy off the vidstore shelf yesterday and watched it last night. A simple, sweet story for the kiddies peppered with plenty of one-liners and sight gags for the grown-ups, it's another example of Pixar's genius with animation. If you haven't seen it yet, go get in line.
