December 18, 2009 | by Disney Dreaming

How exciting! Pixar’s Movie Weekend begins tonight on the ABC Family Channel with the movie “CARS” and a selection of Pixar short films! Who will be tuning in?

(7:30-10:00 PM ET/PT) CARS
From the acclaimed creators of “Toy Story,” “The Incredibles,” and “Finding Nemo” comes a high-octane adventure comedy that shows life is about the journey, not the finish line. Hotshot rookie race car Lightning McQueen (Owen Wilson) is living life in the fast lane until he hits a detour on his way to the most important race of his life. Stranded in Radiator Springs, a forgotten town on the old Route 66, he meets a snazzy Porsche named Sally (Bonnie Hunt), the wise-cracking tow truck Mater (Larry The Cable Guy), Doc Hudson (Paul Newman), and a variety of quirky characters who help him discover that there’s more to life than trophies and fame.
