Pixar moves up ‘Cars 2’ release date

The sequel to Pixar’s animated hit “Cars” is racing to theaters faster than expected. Walt Disney announced during a presentation Wednesday that “Cars 2” will open nationwide in 2011.

Originally, the film was scheduled for release in 2012. Brad Lewis is directing the flick, which follows the adventures of racing superstar Lightning McQueen.

I really don’t mind an earlier date for “Cars 2,” but I sure hope Pixar will take the necessary time to make this one just as energetic and original as the first one. No sense in rushing things…
