I, Robot (2004) Wife's First Time Watching! Movie Reaction!

[@CaesiusX]

*Enemy of the State* (1998) with _Will Smith_ and _Gene Hackman._ Sort of an unofficial sequel to the 1974 _Gene Hackman_ film, *"The Conversation."*

[@garethhackney4814]

Enemy of the State seems a very underrated movie imo. I remember people say how exagherated an unrealistic it all was yet you look at today and we have passed what they do in that film by quite a margin. Def give it a watch, both Smith and Hackman are at the top of their game with those performances.

[@anonymes2884]

@@garethhackney4814 I mean, even at the time systems like Echelon were an "open secret" to anyone paying attention so some of it's a bit farfetched but with a lot of it, anyone claiming that at the time was merely ignorant. That said, personally I don't actually remember that being a common criticism of the movie then (the _style_ of the movie is exaggerated and bombastic but the content less so). As to OP's point, yeah, _kinda_ but mostly in the sense that e.g. John Mason from "The Rock" is actually an older James Bond :). I.e. it's a fun fan theory but it's not that consistent with what we actually see (although Tony Scott - or _someone_ in the "Enemy of the State" production - is _clearly_ referencing "The Conversation" a few times - Brill's "young" photo is of Harry Caul, the raincoat etc. - so it's also not _quite_ as bananas as Mason = Bond).

(it _sort of_ works in "Star Wars" because that's a galaxy spanning civilisation _and_ an oppressive empire, so when people e.g. view the Jedi as a myth when in fact people their dad's age literally fought in a war alongside them, you can _kinda_ chalk it up to deliberate suppression + distance/scale. Here though, not so much)

[@CalciumChief]

People tend to not like this movie for how it takes Isaac Asimov's three laws of robotics and the name "I, Robot" to make a standard action movie, no matter how charismatic Will Smith still was at the time.

[@TrusteftReacts]

For me the movie was always quite deep in the meanings. The action was a secondary part, set to make it easier to create the film.

[@jerodast]

I have been a huge Asimov fan since childhood and I always found those criticisms fake. The themes of the movie are absolutely faithful to the I, Robot short stories and the wider Robots saga - questioning and playing with the three laws and what they would mean, often with a mystery to solve. There is plenty of action and silliness but that doesn't mean they're treating the Laws as window dressing, far from it.

[@anonymes2884]

It's fine IMO, mostly gets the themes etc. (as an Asimov fan since the early 80s FWIW). And paraphrasing Stephen King, repeating something James M Cain had said of the adaptations of his work, "The books are still up there on the shelf" i.e. they're separate. If "I, Robot" got anyone to read the stories that wouldn't have otherwise, great. Everyone else can enjoy a decent action movie. Asimov fans still have the books. Win-win-win. (but in fairness I say that as the kind of reader that's almost never _waiting_ to see my favourite books on screen. Some people seem to view screen adaptations as "completing" the book somehow, as if it's a "better" or "more real" medium. To me the book is already complete in itself, so adaptations - much as i've loved many - don't _really_ matter)

[@Lloyd-Franklin]

It's one of my favourite films. I saw it in the cinema three times.

[@TrusteftReacts]

"Never doubted you for a second..."and the giggles. That's my favorite part of this reaction. If you like A.I. related movies, I highly suggest watching the moving Colossus The Forbin Project. It's an older movie, great movie, which inspired many movies after it as you will see if you watch it.

VIKI's understanding of the 3 laws evolved from them applying to individual humans to applying to humanity in general. Even if the DA wanted to charge Sonny, Lanning's death wasn't a murder, it was an assisted suicide. The cops teasing Spooner come off worse if they know Spooner's backstory. James Cromwell plays a roboticist again in Big Hero 6. Sonny's actor Alan Tudyk plays a tech company CEO in that.

[@eatsmylifeYT]

Follow this up with "Bicentennial Man" starring Robin Williams. The movie deals with AI of a sort but also touches on ethics and humanity. Back in the 90s, US Robotics was a popular brand of modem.

Those three laws were developed by legendary science fiction author Isaac Asimov. He wrote an entire series of books on robots starting with ‘I, Robot’. These laws have been part of several subsequent projects. This film is only a loose adaptation of the book it takes its title from. A slightly more faithful adaptation would be “Bicentennial Man”, starring Robin Williams.

[@k.delpino1124]

There are short stories from the 1940s in a 1950s collection by legendary Sci-Fi author Issac Asimov entited "I, Robot" (not a novel). Several stories of the collection were first adapted for television in the 1960s. This was in the works as an film since the late 1970s. 2 of the stories, Little Lost Robot/Caves of Steel and Asimov's infamous "Three Laws of Robotics" are utilzed in the screenplay. Director Alex Proyas and producer John Davis (the Predator franchise) were the most adamant to make the film with the advancements in filmmaking availible to actually make it happen. Paul Mercurio, actor/dancer/choreogapher, trained the mo cap actors and stunt performers in their robotic mobility. This was 1 of 2 films for Will Smith in 2004 (including Shark Tale), his play on paranoia with the robots and playing the hard boiled detective is a good performance. Alan Tudyk as Sonny is a great performance and one of his most iconic roles in the genre. The rest of the supporting cast is good too (Shia LeBeouf not cursing correcly, hilarious). The suspense does border on the Crime Noir flavor. Action, drama and the humor is standard blockbuster stuff. Originally, Smith did record a song for the movie and then he decided to not put it out. Summertime movies with Will are usually released in July (just because) and this one was moved from June because Spider-Man 2 would own pre-4th of July weekend. I, Robot was Oscar-nominated fo Best Visual Effects. Also check out Proyas' other classic, Dark City (1998).

[@synthetic240]

The robots wanted to give everyone Mandatory Pampering.

[@jonmercano1138]

This movie originally had nothing to do with the literary _I, Robot_ ,a collection of robot centric short stories by Isaac Asimov, who created the 3 Laws. It was an original screenplay called _Hardwired._ When the studio decided to use the former name, the writer incorporated the Laws, character names, elements, and scenes that were very minor adaptations of some of the stories (a robot being looked for hiding amongst others, a robot having a dream of being a savior to its kind, a robot brain making a conclusion for the preservation of all humans). So if you’re looking for a faithful adaptation, this ain’t it. A british tv show (Out of this World) actually adapted one of the stories into an almost hour long episode, and you can find it here. Little Lost Robot. Apparently some concepts from the original material were incorporated into the second season of the show Foundation, which is loosely based on Asimov’s book series of the same name Oh yeah, there’s also Bicentennial Man. Never watched or read, so I can’t speak to it’s faithfulness/accuracy. I tend to her it was odd to have Robin Williams as the main robot character

[@Yoda_81843]

Omg if you’re gunna eventually start a Will Smith list first HAS to be “Enemy of the State”. It’s his second BEST movie. Independence Day is of course #1. The first Bad Boys is worth watching as well.

30:44 The Trolley Problem: "Trolley problem is the name given to a thought experiment in philosophy and psychology. It has sprouted a number of variations, but is distilled to something like this: you are riding in a trolley without functioning brakes, headed toward a switch in the tracks. On the current track stand five people who stand to be killed if the trolley continues on its path. You have access to a switch that would make the trolley change to the other track, but another individual stands there. That person is certain to be killed if the switch is activated. So do you switch tracks or not?" 90% of All people will chose to kill the lone person and save the 5. Then the Questioner says the 5 people are Doctors and the lone person is your Loved one. Whom do you kill?

[@SaiyanHeretic]

Samantha's a smart cookie! She picked up right away that Asimov's Three Laws of Robotics were deliberately written to have exploitable holes, because all his stories involving them are about robots behaving in ways that seemingly "break" the laws. So many hack writers make reference to them without understanding they were always satirical.

[@sircdrom]

Underrated movie! I always loved this. It's just a good old time with some action, some suspense and some humor and the movie is just paced really well. Of course Will Smith does what he does best being able to movie freely between humour and genuine emotion naturally.

The correct answer to the trolley car problem is that if you chose to intervene in either direction you have taken responsibility for the other track that gets run over and so you go to jail for trying.

Spooner's racism seems more like survivor's guilt directed at the robots, responsible for saving his life, while allowing the young girl to die in the car wreck. There is a call back to this on the catwalk, when Sonny arrives with the intent of infecting V.I.K.I. with the nanites, Spooner tells him to "save her, save the girl". Sonny's first thought is logical, that he must apply the nanites. Spooner then personalizes his demand, "Sonny, save Calvin!", before Sonny does as instructed. Spooner wished that that first robot, the one who saved his life, had listened to him as well.

One of my favorites from the recent robot movies is 2012's Robot and Frank starring Frank Langella.

[@lobachevscki]

When this movie was released Machine Learning wasnt much of a concept for general audiences (although i was studying it in my math bachelor) so the idea of robots 'hallucinations' or 'dreams' seemed at least questionable for a lot of people watching the movie, nowadays we literally call hallucinations to anything that is fabricated by machine learning models.

It's always a good thing to be free. What makes it more worth it to try to save the kid or an adult? It's a human emotion that pretty much would have resulted in 2 deaths instead of one.
