Tow Mater (Cars 2; film)

Tow Mater (More commonly known as Mater) is an anthropomorphic tow truck who first appeared in the 7th Pixar film, Cars. He sadly got flanderized after he became the protagonist of the 12th Pixar film, Cars 2.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) The role of protagonist doesn't belong to Mater, it always belonged to Lightning McQueen.
 * 2) Instead of being just a tow truck, he was reduced to being a (poorly executed) spy.
 * 3) Mater acts pretty much a jerk while towing other cars.
 * 4) Mater can also be seen disturbing other vehicles such as trains, dump trucks, etc. at Radiator Springs at the beginning of the film.
 * 5) He also wants to befriend foreign cars just because he saw them on TV, and he is excited to see them in person to the point it gets annoying really quick.
 * 6) Mater became more of a dimwit than he was, but not in a good way unlike how he was in Cars and Cars 3.
 * 7) Mater also literally wasted the talent of Larry the Cable Guy.
 * 8) He even made Lightning McQueen lose the Tokyo race because of him due to his stupidity.

Good Qualities

 * 1) He was more tolerable in Cars and Cars 3.
 * 2) Speaking of Cars 3, Mater had his chance of redemption in that film.
 * 3) The other characters knew how annoying he was.
 * 4) There were some very hilarious scenes involving him, like where he went into the girls bathroom and mistaked wasabi for pistacio ice cream.
 * 5) He is well aware of his mistakes after Lightning chewed him out.
