We just watched Cars last night at home.  I swear there was a part about "evil oil" in that movie too.  Guess I'll have to re-watch it and find out which character said it.  My daughter loves Lightning McQueen, so I'm sure she won't mind watching it again.

Yeah, but I seriously doubt George Carlin, who voiced Fillmore, would've agreed to the line if it had been anything other than a joke.

Great.  Just great.  And my kids were looking forward to seeing this.  Why does Hollywood feel the need to indoctrinate children?

For the same reason they edit out "under God".
