Chuck Norris drives Optimus Prime to work.
Looking for anything RiD or Car Robots. Specifically, Fire Convoy, Megatron, and the Autobot Brothers.

There were some perfectly-rendered scenes that had all the grit and detail, and then there were others that got rushed in some form or another. During the desert fight, there's a shot of Ratchet shooting at the Decepticons that had a cartoony feel to it. It moved a bit too fast and looked too clean. Another was when the military vehicles were rolling down the pyramid after they got sucked towards it--there's a tank rolling down that didn't look like it quite fit. And the Long Haul scene mentioned earlier--he stood out quite a bit there. As if he wasn't quite blended into the scenery properly.
There were other moments I can't think of. But overall they did some spectacular work. |

#20 | | Maximal Join Date: Feb 2009 Posts: 302 Location: New Zealand | there was only one scene that stood out to me as shoddy and someone has already mentioned it.
The longhaul scene i think when he gets shot by the jets he is standing in a cloud of dust and his colour looks way to bright and cartoony. |
