kinetic sculpture Metropolis II by Chris Burden. The work, which took four years to complete, features 1,500 Hot Wheels diecast cars and a host of electric trains all bustling around a matrix of steel and plastic. If that sounds like a snapshot of your morning commute, you're not alone.
 
One of the coolest contraptions I've ever seen. I love the full screen aerial shot and camera going through the track.

I recently watched "Dinner for Schmucks" and Steve Carell's character was a mouse taxidermist, insane intro to movie, shows his happy park creation. :)
