Apparently there was a Nash used in the movie, at least, according to someone on the IMDb forums.

^ well it will make you appreciate Who Framed Roger Rabbit even more how well crafted that movie is with competent and passionate people who know what they were doing unlike this...

“They got eight million ways for you to die, hon. And all of them are permanent.”

And this movie made me feel like I went through all eight million of them. So painful...

^ it was THAT bad ? :D script makes no sense whatsoever and apparently spliced together from multiple ones... unlike Who Framed Roger Rabbit who had rewrites for years before guys like Spielberg and Zemeckis finally approved it

and animation none of the fancy shadow effects of WFRR which blends in animation better with live action

^ Indeed, the story made no sense whatever, the lines spouted by Brad Pitt were some of the most asinine and insipid rubbish I've ever heard, so I can't even blame Pitt for being terrible (that said, so was Gabriel Byrne who looked like he had no idea what he was doing), Kim Basinger acted more cartoony than the animated Holli Would, and the constant interruptions with unrelated animated bits were just plain irritating. To say nothing, of course, of the fact that there was nothing at all cool about Cool World, except maybe that Mercury. And, yes, the blending of live action and animation (such as Brad Pitt putting his arms around Lonette) was horrendous.

Having said that, there are actually two things in this movie that deserve praise: David Bowie's "Real Cool World" is a real cool tune I've enjoyed ever since I first heard it, and the all too briefly seen and heard Super Jack was riotously funny (and hilariously voiced by the hopelessly underrated Maurice LaMarche). Where was that humor before?!?

bonus miniature: 1947-1948 Ford

bonus tractor: Ford

Going to add the ambulance and the "something" because they are noteworthy for their own reasons.

^ Thanks, Tim! I appreciate that you and walter check my bonusmobiles. I figured the ambulance was the one from The Flash, but couldn't remember what it was.
