RED PLANET (2000): Military Killer Robot on Mars (AMEE: Autonomous Mapping Exploration & Evasion

[@NoxideActive]

The Metroid series loves adopting concepts from past Sci-fi films. Metroids = Aliens X-Parasites = The Thing E.M.M.I. = AMEE

[@rogelioVela1985]

Nice lol glad I'm not the only one who remembers this robot from the movie, Red Planet.

[@jacklawsen6390]

Well, in this case I wouldn't just call it adopting a concept, they shamelessly ripped off the whole design and barely even bothered to change the name.

[@terrenomic9472]

I was enjoying all those Mars Movie. And Metroid giveaway that very flexible villain the movie to look back.

[@NoxideActive]

@@jacklawsen6390 Regardless I hope it will generate interest in this movie. Red Planet was an overlooked gem in it's time and deserves a larger following.

[@jacklawsen6390]

@@NoxideActive That's fair. I haven't seen the movie, but I'd be interested to, AMEE's design and movement is pretty cool. I'm assuming (and hoping) it's better than Mission To Mars. I have seen that one, and I thought it was a real stinker.

Metroid Dread really was in development for 20 years huh, if they were inspired by this movie when they started haha!

The robot in TAU also was quite good.

[@aortaplatinum]

Oh man, even the music when it first attacks is similar to the EMMI chase music. It's so rad to see Metroid still taking inspiration from even newer sci-fi movies, makes me hope for a reference to Shane Acker's 9 in the next games

[@willy24able]

I wished that Nostalgia Critic & James A Jannisse should play Metroid Dread, then watch this movie, and then make their own video review of Red Planet while mentioning Metroid Dread's EMMI taking inspiration from this film's AMEE.

[@GanonGhidorah]

Memory could be a strange thing; I didn't remember what this film was called, but I remembered AMEE. Though, I remember her design slightly different. I remember her having transparent parts to her - like the metal was encased in a kind of shell, made of military grade, space-age polymer. And this allowed for not only more machinery to be visible, but also for the electronics inside of her to give a kind of _glow._ That scene at the end, where she descends on him from the top down always stuck with me from when I was a kid. As did her x-raying his chest so she could go straight for the heart.

[@awkwardverse]

I wonder if #metroiddread got their inspiration from this movie?

[@auralynn3862]

100%, too much going on to doubt

[@satan1149]

Inspiration is a bit generous, emmis are EXTREMELY similar to this guy

[@tg88montanaguy61]

I swear some of these movies looked ahead of their time? And you don't hear much of them these days?.

[@CyberSystemOverload]

Underrated movie, yes it has issues but it foretold cool stuff like flexible displays and dual rotor Mars helicopter drone (which will fly for real soon from the Perseverance rover)

[@simul8rduude]

It did fly. Spectacularly. I still find my way back to this movie every once in a while and hope we one day have AMEE-esq drones that we'll be able to use. We could explore so much more with her kind of maneuverability 😂

[@SuaveSpyMojo]

Man the EMMI were ripped straight from Red Planet hahaha. Love it, but it's a tribute rather than a rip off, it's Nintendo.

When you feel like going somewhere get the movie and watch RED PLANET..go to MARS

[@MalanjoTheMonkey]

Imo, it's the worst movie ever. The science in it sucks. From the robot, to the fact that all of the carbon dioxide got converted to oxygen. Also humans still wouldn't be able to go outside without a space suit on mars even if it was filled with oxygen due to the thin atmosphere and radiation from the sun. I give this movie a 1/5 rating.

[@dkoz8321]

See that is the problem with programming AI with emergent behavior potential. The emergent behavior may not the desired behavior. Also no safety code can guarantee 100% suppression of undesirable emergent behavior, as such behavior is dependent on initial conditions that caused behavior to emerge. Its like making a three to 5 year old with 200 IQ and giving that 3-5 year old super human strength, weapons, and armor. The kid is very smart, very well equipped, but has no life experience to judge right and wrong, which behavior is good which is bad, so it will default to self-preservation behavior. Isaac Asimov's Three Laws of robotics do not exist. There is no hardwired code with bulletproof math and algorithm that defines value of human life as that above of a machine. Its best just to keep our machines as fast calculators.

[@milanstevic8424]

I agree with everything, except you don't need a kid for your analogy. It works with an adult just as well, the morality is always relative, heavily depends on the spacetime geography, i.e. it is not absolute / theological and does not correlate with experience. It correlates with zillions of factors and there is always someone on the wrong side of it. In other words, the only way to combat a bad AMEE is to have a lot of other AMEEs who define the consensus, which is why humans kill or have wars, and what democracy is supposed to be.

[@bobdobbs62]

Before folks get too nostalgic let me remind you that this was a HORRIBLE movie. Horrible script, horrible plot, horrible acting. HOWEVER, AMEE was BRILLIANT! AMEE was the only reason I did not walk out of the theater while watching this movie. I always thought it was such a shame that this fantastic robot was wasted on this horrible movie. I don't understand why we don't see a lot more autonomous bots like this in other sci-fi like The Expanse. Sidenote: I hope the folks at Boston Dynamics have seen this film (or at least the parts with AMEE in it). :)

[@NoxideActive]

I disagree, the film was great. Well thought out script, great plot, pretty good acting. What specifically did you not like about it?

[@mouful64]

The expanse didn’t feature robots expressly because the writers wanted a very humancentric focus and believed adding robots or AI villains would detract from that.

[@PygmalionFaciebat]

​@@Nonsensiful23 Which is actually scientific nonsense. Even if the bugs transform all of the CO2 into O2 - the airpressure would even be less than the CO2-pressure (of around 8 mbar). At 100% O2 , the absolute minimum amount of pressure for a human being would be around 350-380 mbar (and that would also need a long time to get used to it... if its go to fast, you haven't enough red bloodcells to transport the oxygene - and you die... thats the reason why a lot of people died on Mount Everest, when they gone without Oxygene-bottles to the top). On Mount Everest the pressure is also around 380 mbar (and with maybe 15% Oxygene or something like that) and thats the reason, why EVEN adapted climbers arent longer there then few minutes - or half hour - that sort of thing - then they beginn to climb down again). Sure you can say: the bugs not only used the CO2 in the atmosphere - but also the water-ice in the ground...yes ... thats a thing which could be discussed, but even that would mean: it needs 70 times more oxygene, than gained from the CO2 .. Another (third) way could be: to also make oxygene from rust (because there is a lot of rust on Mars)... Yes maybe all of these three effects could be enough, even if i doubt that... but lets say for the sake of argument its possible.. For all these three method, there is energy necessary (because all of three components (CO2, H2O, and FeO) are already in the most stabile chemical state (to break this chemical state: energy must be PUT IN in the system). The Earth, which is far closer to the sun , than Mars , needed few HUNDRED Million years for that.. and earth had much better conditions for it: more energy available for the transformation of these chemicals (CO2, FeO, and H2O ) because of the closer sun, AND more stuff to transform, and by FAR a bigger biomass to do that (by far more surface and volume (bio-habitat) for the biomass, than Mars can serve)... But lets throw this arguments out of the window - lets say: you say 'THATS why its called science FICTION... the bugs somehow made it in that short time.. hell even in the movie theres a spot when they say: they dont know how they did it, but they did... scientists have to figure it out...'' OK.. Lets say, all of my arguments above are bullshit, because : 'there are some secret scientific ways to do that in few years....' OK.. EVEN than, this would mean: To put a LOT ... and i mean REALLY a LOT of energy in the system ''Mars'' - in that short time (to break the bonds of the chemicals, and win Oxygene). THIS energy amount put into mars (we forget for the sake of argument, that there are thermodynamic laws which forbid that (energy out of nothing..because sun in that distance doesnt make enough energy...and there is not enough radioactice stuff on mars to win that energy..but like i said: we forget that for the sake of argument),..so THAT amound of energy in THAT SHORT time, would make Mars HOTTER than the sun ... and even if we want to think : ''these bugs are super-alien-bugs...they survive this'' .. Even then: the Mars would be HOT for a very long time... i mean for hundreds of years at least... until he radiated all his heat into space... So regardless how we want to see it.. Thats not science fiction anymore - this movie... Its in the realm of fairytales.

[@LowPlainsDrifter60]

@@Nonsensiful23 Prehaps but because Mars has such & thin atmosphere & doesn't have the protective electro-magnetic field that the earth has, any oxygen would be swept away by solar winds. Not to mention the solar radiation would cause irreversible damage to any unprotected life form, including unmasked humans.

@@PygmalionFaciebat There is a huge amount of oxygen in the Martian soil, in the form of iron oxide. Indeed, that is why it is red.

[@malcolmabram2957]

@@PygmalionFaciebat You are right there is not enough CO2 on Mars to be reduced to oxygen. However there is an abundance of iron oxide which can be electrolyised to iron and oxygen. This is not the preferred method industrially on Earth, but will be the only way on Mars. However it will need a huge amount of electricity and fusion power is the only approach at present. However enormous amounts will need to be made, more than on Earth as the atmosphere will need to be at least twice as dense due to the lower gravity (ca. 0.38g). Despite this, one does not want an oxygen rich atmosphere, one will need the majority to be nitrogen. Where would this come from? Another thing is rust on Earth occurred due to the oxygen event following the evolution of photosynthetic bacteria. This after 500 million years led to the Huronian glaciation. This suggest that in the distant past Mars had a rich atmosphere with much biota.
