[DrowArchmage]

Originally posted by Barry the Sprout: *backs away from DrowArchmage* Haven't seen it. Don't want to other than as a fan of cheesy action films. From the trailers it looks like the moral of the film is entirely counter to everything Asimov thought about robots, making me wonder who in their right mind from his estate gave the go ahead to this film. I Robot is a series of short stories, most of which follow the pattern of one man/woman being sceptical of the Three Laws and clutching at straws to back them up. The conclusion of almost all of his stories is that that person is hopelessly naive and is eventually shown the error of his ways. In other words the Will Smith character who spends the movie being suspicious would, if Asimov had had anything to do with the film, have been converted by the end - not proved correct. Its a classic example of the Frankenstein complex Asimov wrote about, and it seems supremely ironic that this is one of the best examples of it I can find and its in a movie apparently "based" on one of his books... Too much bile... can't continue...
