Synopsis: After taking moviegoers magically into the realm of toys,
bugs, monsters, fish, and superheroes, the masterful storytellers
and technical wizards at Pixar Animation Studios ("The Incredibles,"
"Finding Nemo," "Monsters, Inc."), and Academy
Award®-winning director John Lasseter ("Toy Story,"
"Toy Story 2," "A Bug's Life"), hit the road with
a fast-paced comedy adventure set inside the world of cars. Lightning
McQueen (voice of Owen Wilson), a hotshot rookie race car driven to
succeed, discovers that life is about the journey, not the finish
line, when he finds himself unexpectedly detoured in the sleepy Route
66 town of Radiator Springs. On route across the country to the big
Piston Cup Championship in California to compete against two seasoned
pros, McQueen gets to know the town's offbeat characters –including
Sally (a snazzy 2002 Porsche voiced by Bonnie Hunt), Doc Hudson (a
1951 Hudson Hornet with a mysterious past, voiced by Paul Newman),
and Mater (a rusty but trusty tow truck voiced by Larry the Cable
Guy) – who help him realize that there are more important things
than trophies, fame and sponsorship. Fueled with plenty of humor,
action, heartfelt drama, and amazing new technical feats, "Cars"
is a high octane delight for moviegoers of all ages.

THE FAST AND THE FURIOUS: TOKYO DRIFT
Release Date: June 16, 2006
Distributor: Universal Pictures
Director: Justin Lin
Producers: Neal H. Moritz
Screenwriter: Chris Morgan, Kario Salem, Alfredo Botello
Starring: Lucas Black, Bow Wow, Brian Tee, Sung Kang, Jason Tobin,
Nathalie Kelly
Synopsis: From the producer of the worldwide blockbuster hits "The
Fast and the Furious" and its sequel, "2 Fast 2 Furious,"
comes the latest installment of the adrenaline-inducing series built
on speed-"The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift". Set in
the sexy and colorful underground world of Japanese drift racing,
the newest and fastest customized rides go head-to-head on some of
the most perilous courses in the world.
Sean Boswell (Black) is an outsider who attempts to define himself
as a hot-headed, underdog street racer. Although racing provides a
temporary escape from an unhappy home and the superficial world around
him, it has also made Sean unpopular with the local authorities. To
avoid jail time, Sean is sent to live with his gruff, estranged father,
a career military-man stationed in Tokyo.
Now officially a gaijin (outsider), Sean feels even more shut out
in a land of foreign customs and codes of honor. But it doesn't take
long for him to find some action when a fellow American buddy, Twinkie
(Bow Wow), introduces him to the underground world of drift racing.
Sean's simple drag racing gets replaced by a rubber-burning, automotive
art form-with an exhilarating balance of speeding and gliding through
a heart-stopping course of hairpin turns and switchbacks.
On his first time out drifting, Sean unknowingly takes on D.K., the
"Drift King," a local champ with ties to the Japanese crime
machine Yakuza. Sean's loss comes at a high price tag when he's forced
to work off the debt under the thumb of ex-pat, Han (Kang). Han soon
welcomes Sean into this family of misfits and introduces him to the
real principles of drifting. But when Sean falls for D.K.'s girlfriend,
Neela (newcomer Kelley), an explosive series of events is set into
motion, climaxing with an ultimate high stakes face off.
