Top Ten greatest ROBOTS of all time?

[palitoy]

[Hector]

I'm sorry, I can't stand Twiki...I always prayed he ran out of battery juice or something, lol...

[Hector]

Is that the movie where Hector goes crazy and makes Farrah watch him cook Mexican food ?

Oh, Farrah, Farrah, Farrah...I'd do more than just cook for her....

Twiki, the robot from Message From Space, the other robot from the Message From Space tv show, R2D2, the cute little robot from Heartbeeps, Vincent, Cylons, R5D4, 7-Zark-7, Woger the Wobot...

As an aside- why aren't their any robots in Star Trek? Other than that android and cyborgs, I can't really think of any robots in Star Trek.

Nomad from the episode: "The Changeling" thought that Kirk was it's creator,
and the episode: "Requiem for Methuselah" a robot called M-4 that retrieved an antidote called ryetalyn to cure a plague.

I think as far as robots that might have been it, I would consider episodes like "I Mudd" more Androids than Robots,
and Andrea and Ruk too, but you could argue either way.

This is a tough list.

If piloted robot counted, I would choose VF-1 Valkyrie. (Robotech)

6) FX-7 medical assistant droid -The Empire Strikes Back
5) C3-PO -Star Wars
4) RA-7 protocol droid -Star Wars
3) EV-9D9 -Return of the Jedi
2) Viper probe droid -The Empire Strikes Back
1) R2-D2 -Star Wars


Runners up:

R2-Q5 -Return of the Jedi
Power Droid -Star Wars

Okay I know this is corny but, the headless robot in the tuxedo, in the Three Stooges episode with Shemp
and the goon robot in the Stooges Joe episode. and I also remember a robot in an episode in the George
Reeves Adventures of Superman series, and the Jokers robot Mr. Glee in the 66 Batman show.

[Bruce Banner]

Tough call... very difficult to choose just 10.
But here are a few, in no particular order:

Artoo and Threepio
Maximillian
Ultron
K-9
V.I.N.Cent
Lucifer (Galactica)
Mechagodzilla
IG-88
Optimus Prime
Twiki

[Hedji]

I think C-3PO is the most amazing robot ever created in terms of design and realism. He not only seems completely functional, but every single time I have ever watched him on screen I completely forget there's a human being inside there.

Agreed. And Daniels' performance seals the deal. His movements, the voice and the subtle phasing of it. Perfect.

[Mikey]

Did anybody say Small Wonder ?
