CARS - The Movie Review - AutoWeek (#)

„For Monsters, Inc., Pixar’s texturing experts strove for the precise rendering of fur for the movie’s creature characters. The big challenge in Cars was getting the cars’ reflections down pat. The Pixar paint and body shop used state-of-the-art ray tracing to achieve the correct reflections in the sheetmetal for Cars. This means whether out in the desert, along a city street or in the grandstands at a race, each and every car accurately reflects its environment.“

„Although diesel cars obtain 25 to 35 percent better mileage and emit less carbon dioxide than similar gasoline cars, they can emit 25 to 400 times more mass of particulate black carbon and associated organic matter (soot) per mile. Its funny to watch people whine about the goverment when without that goverment they would whine about no one their to hold their hand for them.“
