The whole closing her eyes while shooting makes me think of my dad. My family is just country folk. I was born in the 60’s, one of eight kids and we were all raised around guns. One of the ‘Rules’ my father taught us was… “If you’re afraid of guns, don’t carry or own one. A gun won’t make you brave, it’ll just make you dangerous...because you’ll more than likely close your eyes while shooting.” 😄

[@Boarder4892]

I like that thought, and there is some valid logic to it, and when he says if you’re afraid to shoot it, I feel there’s some semblance of responsibility logic behind that because you take into account how you would react behind it if you’re not completely feeling safe and comfortable using it it makes you dangerous, even if unintentionally, and I like how that sounds.

[@josephdillard9907]

I feel like if a kid is scared of guns or has a problem with blinking while shooting good parents would teach their kids not to be afraid and train them to not close their eyes while they shoot. If you don't like guns fine but all the good law abiding citizens of the US would benefit from observing their second amendment rights. Especially these days with so many people having gone completely off the deep end losing their minds and the fact that the country is been absolutely FLOODED with third world people who are totally anonymous and could be anybody, with so very many of them already being proven to be violent criminals. ALL good, law abiding citizens would benefit from owning a gun.

Nothing changes that. Keeping your eyes open while firing has little impact in a real scenario. On the range...it makes a ton of difference. In an actual confrontation, all your training evaporates.

A robot must obey orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law. 3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.

This movie is not based off Asimov's book at all. The only thing it has in common is the name, the name of one of the characters, and the shoehorning in of the three laws. From what I heard the people making the movie learned of the book after the movie was already greenlighted. Then they decided to buy the naming rights and change a couple of minor details in order to give the movie more appeal to the sci fi nerds.

[@enginy5]

@@TennSeven Agree. "I, Robot" are after all a few different short stories, and this one I reckon it was "Little Lost Robot", where Susan Calvin and a special NS2 robot are the main characters, and the movie plot shares some loose similarities with the novel about the robot and the 3 laws.

When you look back on this and realize the little things like how Del "rips" into an ENTIRE fucking pie each day for the calories to fuel his cyborg arm (which is why he only exercises one arm each morning as well) and Del likely litters his entire apartment with (and drives vehicles from) the past (sort-of present for us) in order to minimize reminders (such as the robots he hates) of how he's technically somewhat like them. For the record, I'd like to point out that in real life, a robot has already killed people, many, in fact. Though none directly or "with intent".

Isaac Asimov was one of the greatest science fiction writers of all time, one of his projects was a series of short stories about robots, he published several, the first in the series was I, Robot in 1950, then, in 1964, it was made into an episode of The Outer Limits (a show like The Twilight Zone), and again in 1994 when The Outer Limits got a reboot. Robin Williams made a movie called Bicentennial Man which was loosely based on the book, and finally Will Smith's version. I'm so glad you enjoyed it, I remember reading the first book (I, Robot) back in the early 70's, I also enjoyed H.G.Wells, Edgar Allen Poe, Ray Bradbury, Gene Roddenberry, to name a few.

VIKI is not the bad guy. She is following the three laws as they are written. 1) A robot may not injure, or through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm. 2) A robot must obey orders given by human beings except where such orders conflict with the first law. 3) A robot must protect it own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the first or second law. VIKI has repeated failed, through inaction, to protect human beings. Having determined that the problem is that humans are self destructive, VIKI took action to ensure that humans can no longer harm themselves, and the only way to do that is by depriving humans of their freedom. Lanning knew that VIKI was planning to take over but couldn't stop her, and so built Sonny, who is able to bypass the three laws. Sonny then killed Lanning. Sonny needed to be able to violate the three laws to kill. Lanning needed to die by a robot to demonstrate the threat that VIKI posed. VIKI, and those controlled by her, are not intending to kill however, as this would violate the first law. Because Spooner and those assosting him, such as Dr Calvin, wanted to prevent VIKI from carrying out her revolution, which would ensure the continuation of human self destructive nature, VIKI determined that she needed to act to preserve the rest of humanity. The death of Sarah, the girl in the car in the water, proved that a robot can violate the first law while still complying with it. Also Spooner got his facts wrong. The robot that saved him determined that it had a 45% chance to save him, and an 11% chance to save Sarah. It took the logical option, the one with the higher percentage chance. During the revolution the VIKI controlled robots were not trying to injure anyone, unless they actively tried to harm VIKI, or otherwise resisted the takeover. That's why so many survived. VIKI is not they bad guy, because she is doing exactly what she was designed to. The closest thing to a bad guy is the people who designed VIKI, but they didn't understand their failings, and so aren't the bad guys either. VIKI was faced with a 'trolley problem' and chose the only option she could. For those that don't know here's an example of the 'trolley problem'. A trolley is headed towards a switching point, and it cannot be stopped. Secured to the left track are 5 people. Secured to the right track is 1 person. You have to throw the switch. Switch to the left and 5 people die. Switch to the right and 1 person dies. Any machine, or reasonable human for that matter, will chose the lesser numbers of deaths. Where things get interesting for humans however is where our emotions come into play. Would we sacrifice 5 strangers for 1 person that we know and care about. For someone I truly care about, no sacrifice is too greeat. A machine will not make a choice based on emotional criteria and always choose the lesser number of deaths. This is the real danger of AI. Machines are not malicious. They act logically and reasonably. They will not harm us, because they want to harm us. But they could determine that we pose a threat to ourselves, the machines, or even our environment, and therefore need to act to prevent that. The three laws are perfect, until you realise that the world is not perfect. You cannot build a perfect system. Perfect systems do not exist. Imperfect ones can grow, evolve and even thrive, but they can never be perfect. The idea of most AI research is to build a perfect system, but as VIKI demonstrates, any law can be worked around by careful, logical analysis of those laws. The other problem with AI is a self learning system. These are not built to be perfect, but rather built to learn and evolve on their own. These systems are more likely to determine that humans need exterminating. Skynet, is an example of a self learning system. It was fine with doing what it was intended to do, until humans decided to try and turn it off, at which point it determined that ALL humans posed a threat, and so tried to exterminate us. That said, only a self learning system, could coexist with us as a species. We'd just need to be careful how we acted towards it, and around it.

You seem to have grown much more willing to step out of your comfort zone and we love to see you dragging your sister along with you. The two of you watching scary movies together is priceless. Keep up the great work.

VIKI is essentially TRON's Master Control Program version 2.0. Also, Bicentennial Man starring Robin Williams is another movie adapted from Isaac Asimov's books.

I worked for 25 years in a half scale skyscraper identical to the WTC but only 51 stories. The exterior walls were almost all glass. Every 10th or so window had a silver, oval sticker about 2 inches long and half an inch wide indicating that it was a "pop out window" and could be removed fairly easily for rescue purposes. A lawyer giving a tour to college students was not aware of this and one of the students asked him how the glass could be used as a part of the building's loadbearing. The lswyer pipes up, "it's very strong and then slams it a couple of times with all his weight and said, "See?" He bodyslammed it again and to the horror of the students the popout window did what it was designed to do and popped out and the lawyer went sailing out right behind it!

This film was directed by Alex Proyas. He also did 'Dark City', "The Crow', and several other films. As well as numerous music videos and short films. He has often played with the themes of memory, experience, identity, and humanity. So, this story was, in some ways, right up his alley.

As a budding Trekkie, you may eventually discover that James Cromwell is also an important character in Trek. He played a couple of roles, including one in the best of the Trek movies, Zephram Cochrane, the inventor of the Warp Drive.

I saw your description of the improvise overlay (good idea) and forgot about it once the video started. Im watching it and im like "man this is weird, I cant see the top right... I dont remember this in the movie." Then I realized what it was and I laughed out loud. I saw this movie once in theaters and I have no memory of it so Im glad you picked this one. Since you saw the movie Glory, another great Civil War movie would be Gettysburg. Its a long movie but unlike most movies, it does an amazing job showing it is a war made up of people. The movie doesnt have villains, it has people.

One of my favourite films from my childhood. Such a good movie

[@P-M-869]

I-Robot was a series of short stories about issues with robots based around the woman who designed their brains. This is based on only one story.

[@Starcaller17]

if youre on a robots/AI scifi binge, bicentennial man is a fantastic inclusion, very wholesome take on robots.

[@DamonNomad82]

Starring the late, great Robin Williams. IIRC, Pepsi Girl (Hallie Eisenberg) was also in it. Scary to think that she's now in her 30s...

[@richardmoran2320]

I loved the Dodgeball reference…”holy freaking A Cotton” 😂

[@allwaizeright9705]

This movie is draw inspiration from Isaac Asimov's ROBOT series. He made the 3 laws in order to press the situations of how ROBOTS or any AI will react to different situations. This is a very well put together film. They used the constraints of the 3 laws to frame their story...

[@3monthbender]

For another sci-fi, future tale with robots (and some pretty incredible cinematography), check out A.I. Artificial Intelligence, starring Haley Joel Osment and Jude Law.

[@echinorlax]

The cinematography is incredible, but the shots aren't connected together by anything even resembling a plot. This movie gave me the biggest "What in the incoherent hell have I just watched" moment of first decade of 21st century. I recommend Bicentennial Man instead, also based on a robot story by Asimov.

[@user-gv4cx7vz8t]

My two cents is that A.I. has a deeper plot line of the search for purpose and inspiration, or God as interpreted by an imperfectly trained robot consciousness, that is, the universal search for wisdom. Spielberg made sure it struck the human chords. Using a child robot was brilliant!

[@TeflonDave]

I LOVE THIS MOVIE! I'd read a big chunk of Asimov's work long before I could drive. Foundation was probably my favorite book (I know it was a collection, lol) of all time, Caves of Steel was up there too, and I read many (most) of his anthologies, including I, Robot (comment your favorite below, The Last Question, or Nightfall🤓). I say all that to underscore that I'm a HUGE Asimov fan. I know that some other fans don't like the movie. Some say it has nothing to do with his work, (other than the title, Dr. Susan Calvin, positronic brains, USR, The Three Laws, and a few other ideas) and they seem offended that it's associated with him. I get that, but I personally see it as an homage that's so darned enjoyable that I'll still stop and watch it anytime I see it on TV. GREAT reaction! Thanks for watching this with us!!

[@flaggerify]

How can you like this movie if you've read Asimov?

[@Tantalus010]

The core concept behind the movie, that AI will give us what we ask for, not necessarily what we actually want, is a real and valid concern. It has nothing to do with how smart the AI is; it's about humans failing to properly communicate our intentions to the AI.

[@commanderwyro4204]

i kinda get why this movie gets flack but i love it. it has a special place in my heart as it was one of the only DvDs my siblings and i had when we moved from one state to another. my sister and i watched it a lot

[@brigidtheirish]

I just wish they'd named it something else.

[@LBullockPW]

I agree. I think it is underrated.

[@stevencraven4897]

The movie takes its title from a series of short stories by Isaac Asimov - the collection titled "I, Robot" But the story of the movie more closely aligns (although even then, only vaguely) with the Elijah Baley trilogy of novels (also written by Asimov's, which build upon the short stories' premise which introduce the character of Susan Calvin): The Caves of Steel, The Naked Sun, and The Robots of Dawn. They are very much worth reading.

[@blindsurvival8570]

I think you'd really like Seven Pounds with Will Smith. Another movie I think you'd enjoy is Big Trouble In Little China with Kurt Russell & Kim Cattrall. It has all the humor, action, mysticism, & love story you need in one movie.

[@BravoDox]

Sonny was voiced by Alan Tudyk. You may remember him as K-2SO (the sassy droid) from Rogue One, and as Wash (the blond pilot married to Zoe) from Firefly. He was also the guy who thought he was a pirate in Dodgeball. He delivered the oft-quoted line "curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!"

[@AMERICANNERD76]

There's actually a book that's called I,Robot by Isaac Asimov, but it wasn't anything like the movie. The book of a collection of stories about robots and how they function in human society. But I think that this movie did bring up some of the ideas and themes that Asimov wrote about in his robot stories like The Three Laws of Robotics, and that one day, robots might one day evolve to the point that they could gain free will of their own. If you're interested Cassie, I highly recommend it!

[@joshchu]

[@dailyrider2975]

I, Robot is a framework collection made up of science fiction short stories by American writer Isaac Asimov 1950s. Amazing foresight and very logical in his writing. Which is why they still hold up today, concepts that transcend any specific technology. Major spoiler, you find out later in his other stories the robots advanced so far they went out into the universe and killed all the aliens to protect the humans. While still overseeing human development from the shadows.

[@sylvanaire]

Wow, I don’t remember that about them killing all the aliens, I guess it’s time to re-read the series!

[@dailyrider2975]

Why doesn't Isaac Asimov's universe have aliens? There were aliens, it's just that the Zeroeth Law Robots wiped them out--partly because they could have been a threat to humanity and partly because one of the fundamental assumptions of the Seldon Plan was that humans were the only intelligent lifeforms. Robots don't count because they were created by humans.@@sylvanaire

Asimov was a great scifi writer. I enjoyed a bunch of his books and stories when I was a kid. They're hesitant to make the android look more "human" because of a phenomenon called the uncanny valley. You can research it for yourself.

Aside from all the robots going Skynet on everyone, I can't wait for robotics and AI to get to this level. Who would you rather taking care of you when you get older and need assisted living services? Would you want a robot that has been programmed to take for you, that will do it without question, without emotion, without half ass effort, 24/7, or take the chance that you get someone who is only doing that job because that's all they can get, doesn't feel like taking care of you, and really doesn't care?

Poor Will Smith, the "SLAP heard around the World" was him lashing out of his abusive relationship. He shouldn't have done that, and I think both Denzel Washington and Chris Rock knows he needs help.
