Pixar: Ranking Every Upcoming Film By Anticipation

6. Cars 3

When talking about Pixar's films, it's easy to take jabs at the Cars franchise. Critically speaking, the original film was hardly as well-received as its predecessors, while the sequel stands as the company's least-loved film. The series has also spawned a spinoff franchise, Planes, under the stewardship of DisneyToon Studios, which also hasn't been warmly embraced by critics, either.

Despite its lukewarm critical reception, though, the franchise is bigger than you probably think. Kids love it, the two films are breezy entertainment, the merchandising has brought the company billions and even Cars Land at Disney's California Adventure stands as quite an excellently-themed, ever-popular experience.

As such, a third film has always been inevitable, with the most recent bit of news on it being the reveal of a teaser poster at D23 this past August. While the series' existing fans have every reason to be excited, when compared to the other sequels that have been announced or the idea of new concepts by the company, it's hard not to see the film as the lesser of the bunch. 

Release Date: 2018/2019
