The Top 10 Surprises
in the “I Robot” Movie
in the “I Robot” Movie
10> It turns out that only the female versions of the NS-5 kill, and they’re programmed to rampage every 28 days.
9> Due to the influence of executive producer Charlton Heston, a fourth law was added: The right of the robot to keep and bear arms shall not be abridged.
8> Due to budget constraints, robots from other movies are used, like C-3PO, Robbie, Power Ranger zoids, Al Gore….
7> Retitled “Oy, Robot” for the Tel Aviv premiere.
6> The unnaturally attractive actors and actresses get naked in a big shower scene. No self-respecting science fiction movie would employ such a tawdry gimmick.
5> Will Smith’s concerns that there’s “more than meets the eye” with the robots is confirmed when one of them transforms into a bitchin’ racecar!
4> Robots actually never refer to themselves in the first person.
3> New subtitle: “You, Jane.”
2> In the future, sex appeal is based not on looks or the contents of ones wallet, but by the number of #1s a person gets writing for Internet humor lists.
and the Number 1 Surprise in the “I Robot” Movie…
1> The Terminator challenges the three laws of robotics all the way to the Supreme Court.
