Awesome / Robots

This proves that outmodes aren't useless.

• The music is all awesome.
• A deleted scene exclusive to the first trailer and the novelization has Cappy kicking Ratchet's butt, first accidentally and then intentionally. See it here.
• The whole Crosstown Express scene is a visual treat with its creative methods for public transportation.
• Rodney fixing a lot of Robot City citizens is not only heartwarming, but it was awesome, too. It took all day to fix them, but he was willing to help them. Even Rodney's friends helped him out as well.
• While Bigweld Took a Level in Cynic, you can see that he put in a lot of effort setting up a LOT of dominoes. He even did some domino surfing as well! How cool is that?
• Rodney's Rousing Speech at the train station:
  Crank: Settle down, I've got a plan. Let's all get on the train!
  (the Rusties are preparing to leave before Rodney stops them)
  Rodney: Wait a minute, you're all giving up?
  Crank: You started it.
  Rodney: Well, I'm ending it. My mistake was hoping that Bigweld would fight our battles. Well he won't! It's up to us. If we don't do something about Ratchet, no one will! Come on, let's fight back!
  Aunt Fanny: Fighting never solved anything.
  Bigweld: (arriving at the scene) Quitting isn't so productive either, I gotta tell you.
  Crank: It's the big boy! (Diesel does a Jaw Drop)
  Aunt Fanny: He's still my pump.
  Bigweld: (to Rodney) Kid, if you're gonna fight, I'm going in with you.
  Rodney: You are?
  Bigweld: Hey, who's the dame with the sweet kiester?
  Rodney: But why?
  Bigweld: I don't know, I'm a big guy and I like woman with a large...
  Rodney: No, no, no. Why are you gonna help us?
  Bigweld: Oh, because I want to grow up to be like you!
  (Rodney smiles meaning it became a Rebuilt Pedestal)
  Rodney: Let's do it!
  Bigweld: Come on, gang, let's give that Ratchet an old-school fixin'!
  (everyone proceeds to head to Bigweld Industries)
  Aunt Fanny: Oh, what a man! (falls over)
  Crank: Someone get a crane.
• The outmodes all banding together and Zerg Rushing the Chop Shop, to keep Madame Gasket busy while Rodney tries to rescue and repair a stunned Bigweld.
  • Just prior, Rodney stops Bigweld from plunging into the furnace (by wedging a pipe in the gears), sun shining behind him, before all his friends assemble with their ramshackle upgrades— Crank with monster truck tires (making a Dynamic Entry in the process), Fender with Viking-style armor and staff, Diesel with huge cowboy-style boots and dual pistols, Lug with a superhero/pro-wrestler outfit, and even Cappy with her built-in rollerblades, looking like not only a Badass Crew, but also an awesome superhero team.
  • Lug battling some of Gasket's minions, pro-wrestling style.
  • Cappy and Piper being Back-to-Back Badasses.
  • Aunt Fanny at first wields a Frying Pan of Doom...but discovers that her gigantic behind makes a much better weapon.
    Aunt Fanny: Say hello to my DIMPLED FRIEND!
  • Bizarrely, Fender being cornered by a bunch of Gasket's minions, and suddenly busting a move to Brittany Spears' "Hit Me Baby One More Time." Never before has someone weaponized a Big-Lipped Alligator Moment.
  • Wonderbot, of all characters, kills Madame Gasket.
• Crank deciding to drop his defeatist attitude and actually try and fight for once after being touched by Rodney's dedication.
  Crank: Rodney's right! I'm tired of just complaining and never doing anything! I...I wanna try. I. Want. To. Try!
• Piper's speech to Jack Hammer, defending her brother and out-modes.
  Piper: We are NOT junk, we are NOT scrap and we WILL NOT not be treated this way.
  • Also Piper gathering all the out-modes that Rodney helped into an army to come and save him and his friends just in time.
  Piper: Did I miss the butt-whoopin'?
• Herb leaving the employ of his irascible boss Mr. Gunk for good by simply slamming his dishwasher part down on his head. In addition, Herb not giving his boss a "Reason You Suck" Speech proves that he's above Mr. Gunk. The expression on Mrs. Copperbottom’s face afterwards indicated that she is proud that her husband did the right thing.
• What's a really good Catharsis Factor? The very final scene has Wonderbot getting revenge on Tim for his cruel treatment to Rodney earlier by kicking him out of the Rivet Town Party
  Tim: (to Wonderbot, who is about to kick him out): "Wait a minute! Wait a minute! I-I-I was on the list! (nervous laughter) Don't you know who I am? Wait-!! (Wonderbot has none of it and literally kicks Tim far away as he screams. Wonderbot then smiles to the camera in victory, ending the movie)
