Knormal posted:It doesn't look like it had really solidified in meaning yet. That looks to just be an articulated wooden cat toy with no kind of automation, not something anyone would consider a robot today. The original Robots are explicitly described as organic and more like what we'd call clones, though they are at the time time described as manufactured and assembled from component organs like parts. Just saying, the term's been used broadly from the start. That said, the themes of social satire are on point, especially given the robot uprising happens because the robots are given the ability to feel pain.

I have it on good authority that "robot" actually means "slave" alternately:

Knormal posted:Oh come on, there's no way that character's old enough to hold to office of President. I just checked and apparently there's enough details in the movie to conclusively determine Judy is 24 at the time the film's set. So this would only have to be set 4 years in the future, assuming their laws match ours.

What wasn't Russia invited for though, I'd be perfectly fine with a representative of the Russian government being invited to a mosh pit. I'd even participate.

Then good, the only international sports event I want to hear Russia being invited to is 'chasing Putin across a field and kicking him' It's not as well known as Football but a valid sport we can all enjoy.
