The 50 Best Movie Robots Of All Time

Very glad to see that my favorite, Twiki from Buck Rogers, just barely made the cut at #48. It's good to see Dr. Theopolis again. ;-)

Box from Logan's Run also made it. See what Family Guy does with Logan's Run.

The 50 best movie robots - Times Online
: "We selected the fifty most memorable robots in film and rated them in four different categories:

  • Plausibility (meaning how likely it would be that, with advances on currently existing technology, such a device could be built)
  • Coolness (just how well designed, shiny or generally well-appointed the robot appeared to be)
  • Dangerousness (scoring not only on built-in weaponry, but the robot's eagerness to use it)
  • Comedy Value (how effective the robot is at providing light relief in the film in which it appears)"
