  • Non Sequitur Scene: A huge one occurs midway through the movie, when a toy dump truck kills a mailman. Not only does this have nothing to do with the plot, but it is the only scene in the entire movie to show blood. Hilarious, unrealistic blood.
    • A second scene has a team sent to clean up a chemical spill. The truck activates the air pump to the biohazard suits, inflating one and somehow controlling it to pick up an axe and murder both passengers.
    • Another has a cherry-picker truck push its operator into some power lines. None of these even tangentially involve the main cast.
  • Crowning Moment of Heartwarming: The ending to the film. Turns out that there are some machines out there that are still loyal to humanity.
  • Downer Ending: In the book, not only do the trucks emerge victorious, but the story goes out of it's way to crush every single possibility of a happy ending for the humans.
