Yeah, in all the early press, he was listed as just a cameo, but he really carried the film for me. I think I would've enjoyed it much more if it hadn't been so long winded. I enjoyed the space stuff but you're spot on about the big truck story arc - that was dull. And the whole pushing that giant piston arc was so PRC comradery that I almost wanted to wave my chicom flag, if I had a chicom flag...
