Very similar experience with Cars 3. Children identify with the new up-and-comer race car while grownups identify with a Lightning McQueen who must accept his glory days are past and embrace the next generation.
Shoutout for the race announcer who drops a microcosm of the whole film in a single line:
This is the movie after the one where Mater becomes an international spy that pisses on a stage in public?
Man the writing for those movies really skip a generation cause the first one was good too about respecting your time and place in history but adapting it to not just be forgotten and using the lessons learned to better those that follow.
