Hoping for yet more spin-offs from the CGI-animated film series that started with Cars in 2006 and continued with innumerable television series, sequels, and short films? You're in luck!

According to this trailer from the comedy video website Funny or Die, Disney is going for broke (literally) with a whole host of vehicle-themed movies. Get ready for Trains, Boats, Bikes, Dirigibles, Segways, and even At-At's (directed by J.J. Abrams of course)!
