dgator783 · 11-15-2009, 04:04 AM

the pq/aq on both are top notch....Pinoc. never looked so good, the problem people have with the movie, if any, is the OAR of the movie which is completely stupid. I would go with Pinoc. because once it goes back in the vault, u wont see it for another 10 years or so..lol

If you didn't like the story to Cars then why buy it just for the PQ/AQ? Pinocchio is a great classic animated film from Disney. The restoration on the picture and audio is great. You should check out the review here.

Pino

Tough choice for me since I like both. If I had to pick one, I would go with Pinocchio.

assydingo · 11-15-2009, 04:35 AM

If you want an older animated title than Pinocchio is fantastic. Great songs, story, characters, etc.

RebelPrince1986 · 11-15-2009, 04:36 AM

Pinocchio. Not only will it go out of print before Cars will, but it's also a better movie.

RonSwanson · 11-15-2009, 04:37 AM

Cars is the worst Pixar movie in my opinion, and Pinocchio is a classic. I would go for Pinocchio. (not that cars is terrible, so if you like it i would go with Cars because the PQ is ridic)

bigpapy · 11-15-2009, 06:38 AM

Pinocchio great classic but I think cars is better

MaCruz · 11-15-2009, 06:39 AM

Pinocchio.. Hands down

KubrickFan · 11-15-2009, 09:03 AM

Pinocchio. Especially if you didn't like Cars in the first place. But overall Pinocchio is a better movie anyway.

BellesPrince · 11-15-2009, 09:18 AM

I love them both, but there really isn't any competition between classic Walt Disney Feature Animation at their best, and any other studio.

Pinocchio all the way!

Good choice. It's a classic that will stand the test of time.

Cars, by a mile

Damage Inc. · 11-15-2009, 12:14 PM

Even though I love most of the Pixar-films, I didn't even see 'Cars' yet.
But I watched 'Pinocchio' a lot on VHS when I was little, and it's a great film.
It's a whole different thing from something like 'Cars', even though objects come alive.
Now I think of it, it's more like a sadder and darker version of 'Toy Story' I'd say.
But it's indeed a timeless classic (both the story and this specific film) with great animation, audio and music.
(Which I speak of in general, cause I do not have the BD.)
It's also a bit grim at times, kind of dark and insane, but also funny at times.
Great film for all ages though.
I don't think you'll regret it, it's probably one of the top ones of those older Disney-films too.
Along with 'Jungle Book' and 'Aristocats' and... you know, all those great ones from before the '90s.

Graboid · 11-15-2009, 01:34 PM

I have tried to watch Cars on cable TV at least 3 times and every time I have turned it off after about 10 minutes. I just don't get it and I cannot warm up to a bunch of talking cars. I really like Pinnocchio but it might seem a bit dated four some of today's younger collectors.

aramis109 · 11-15-2009, 01:44 PM

Personally, I love Cars. A lot of love went into that film- the extras go into some detail. I really appreciate the film, plus it's able to entertain both myself and my daughter. Pinnochio is a classic film, and it looks great on blu-ray, but I almost didn't purchase it. In the end I did for my kid, and she loves it. However the music and story-telling methods don't hold my interest much. I really don't like musicals or music in movies- I feel it kills the pacing of the story.

I realize you already made a choice but if it were me I'd choose Cars.
