What, or who, is your favorite robot?

[Ktrek]

He had a name ?   I couldn't remember the number of the Jupiter spaceship.

Well, the original TV show robot was named B9 Environmental-Control Robot. I don't know if in the movie Lost in Space (1998) if the robot was named. As for the spaceship it was called in the series and in the movie Jupiter II.

I like all of those robots. 

They gunslinger was always one of my favorites, but one that I guess isn't exactly a robot but an android is

DATA!


he is my all time fave.

Oh man, without a doubt, Data, hes awesome.  "Scan for you little life forms."  LOL that was sooo funny

Ah yes, Data after he turned on his emotion chip - lol.   What about that scene when Q gave him a sense of humor for a brief moment ?   Brent Spiner did a great job with that role.

Awesome thread...I am going off on a slight tangent with mine by delving into the animated world.  So here are some of my favorite cartoon robots.



TRANZOR-Z:  A childhood favorite of mine when we lived in Japan (Dad was in the U.S. Navy)



VOLTRON:  The lion version...I loved this cartoonbut not as much as this version....




VOLTRON:  The vehicle version....This is the one I had as a toy and my little brother had the lions...I remember my Mom wasn't real thrilled with the fact that my version of Voltron had 20 pieces and my brothers only had 5.



SOUNDWAVE:  I absolutely loved his voice...although how dated is he now?  Wow!



STARSCREAM:  I hated his voice....he was such a whiner but he was an F-15 and as a kid I loved F-15 Eagles.


Anybody else wanna share their favorites?

There were no movies or TV shows made with them, but I like these guys:

R. Daneel Olivaw (he had a great journey of discovery)


R. Giskard Reventlov (he could read/affect minds and taught Daneel)


Then there's Andrew Martin whose road to self improvement led him to the ultimate gift.

[Ktrek]

What are they from Darmok? Are they from a sci-fi book or role playing games?

They're from the Isaac Asimov robots series, beginning with "The Caves Of Steel". They were a combination of murder mysteries and exploration of the meaning of the Three Laws of Robotics. That series eventually intersected with the Foundation series of books.

Great books that should be up on the big screen.

Andrew Martin is from the Asimov short story, "The Bicentennial Man" (movie of the same name).
