People are also known to get really attached to specific robots. There was a big thing about roombas being replaced under warranty rather than repaired, so the company had to do everything to do the repairs even with it's less cost effective than replacement. Military and police robots, mostly bomb defusal, have their human operators wanting the robots on R and R with them. It's actually a concern, since if they're too attached to the robot they might not treat it as expendable.
I mean maybe they're kinda cute to add a human side to the robots? Makes them less threatening if they're saying filling a role outside combat. Like search and rescue or perhaps enforcing a lockdown with normal civilians? I mean realistically it's just so Chappie is cute to the audience but it would make some sense for them in that regard too.
Probably an homage to old '80s & '90s mech animes like PatLabor and Tank Police where on the head of the humanoid robots, bunny ear antennae/radome devices were installed.
Chappie was fun, funny, and at times even a touching film, it deserved a sequel.. 🙂 the director said the door closed on any attempt to a sequel mainly due to the difficulties he had with cast members Ninja and Yolandi from the musical group Die Antwoord both on and off the set.. the duo, I thought, were quite impressive in their roles, but again knowing the controversial reputation the duo have acquired over the years, it's not too hard to imagine there, or they may have been problematic.. 😕
The acting was cringe of the music group. Good effects and decent story cannotnsave mediocre acting Ratings and expectations of movie lowered after the 2000s
The inclusion of Die Antwoord was easily the worst part of this movie, without even considering any of their controversy outside of it. If they hadn't basically written the movie around those clowns it could have been so much better.
Elysium, District 9 and Chappie are some of my favorite sci-fi works. I just like a setting like that, where in a dystopian future in a run-down and needy area, futuristic technologies like robots, spaceships or mechas still exist in combination with action-packed firefight scenes.
he is waiting for the robot to absorb the bullets for him, probably they have been trained together, whenever the human has that gesture the robot will stand in front of them, dont you see the robot immediately jump in when he did that?
I burned my pizza once when I saw chappie in TV. I got so fucused on the mouvie that I realised what was happening when I smelled smoke comming from the kitchen. 9/10 -1 point for nearly burning down my house
At the very least, he would have lost his hearing, and gone through some nasty wounds from the shrapnel the robot would have launched At most, he would have ended up a paraplegic
@grahambloodworth4770 That could be part of the reason it didn't blow, to close for the safeties to disengage. At that close a range, it's just a rocket powered very big slug, so Scout #20/Chappie got slammed hard, but no detonation. RPG's that have failed to detonate have still gone through lightly armoured military vehicles and taken off limbs from soldiers inside. They could still take down a droid. The film makers could have saved this scene by simply having him (Hippo?) break a window with the back of the RPG and be in front of it with the RPG's backblast aimed towards the outside. He's prepared in the room and waiting. It would have made him more formidable, this is a guy who knows weapons and most likely had military training. He'd thought this out.
They had Hugh Jackman and Sigourney as a villains, you know how rare that is to see such a big actor who often played and known mainly to play protagonist in somewhat small film outside of American Hollywood. Ppl underated this movie hard its such a good movie
Since accused and convinced of child abuse, multiple scums , they exploited the poor retard kid they adopted abused him then bumped him in misery. The couple is a disgrace to human race....
honestly a great film that I wish got a sequel. also would've loved to see the scouts working with the police more. would've been awesome to see maybe a scout go against chappie at some point in the movie.
Nobody does robots like Blomkamp. Absolutely nobody. Totally believable. I can't get enough of this. Shame Hollywood is too dumb to see the greatness of this.
chappie has to be one of the few movies that did humanoid robotics nicely, no clunky jittering yet they have the perfect amount of human and machine movement, one thing that i just realized tho is that a heli carrying 4 scouts....would prolly crash lmao, they are armored enough to stop 7.62x39s and get hit by cars so they have to weigh a goo 1.8k-2.2klbs so 4x (1.8) is 7.2k-8.8k
@@elijahtourtillott7550 nope a kitted out jacked dude is max 300 pounds (220 lbs man, 80 lbs gear). The hydraulics and battery alone would be over 200 lbs, the armor is everywhere not just chest and back. Consider that a steel plate is around 8 lbs (chest sized), this has 10 times the coverage of the regular two plates, which is 16 times 10 = 160 lbs. Add the head sensors which would be similar to the ones you see on helicopters, 50 lbs, and their equipment (80 lbs) and you have a 400-500 lb machine at the minimum
Production's really good except that it has a touch of the modern Close Up Disease where too many shots are far too tightly zoomed in and destroy the context of the image and motion. Bunch of places where if the camera was just pulled back to frame properly, it'd be a hundred times better.
(7:41) I love the juxtaposition of the two characters where one has a model of a large military robot on their desk while the other has a more demure humanoid (i.e. "Chappie" type) variant. 😉
The scariest part of that we can already make some neural networking for these kind of robots. Just a little bit of works on the robots and it's pure reality...
Chappie was instrumental for me. Completely changed how I perceived Artificial Intelligence. Everything before had always shown AI to be evil for no real reason. But Chappie showed how Strong AI could be the same as a human baby, but just capable of learning a lot faster and making its own inferences. So after watching Chappie I decided I want to start making AI, so I went to university, got a degree in computer science and started pursuing it from all angles. That was in 2014. 10 years later, I'm now a Data and Automation Architect and every day I build new AI products and models. I was an early designer of many of the original ground-breaking changes; The OPT model, GPT 2.0, LSTM nets, Boltzmann Brains, RNNs and CNNs and all manner of weird and wonderful AI and ML techniques. We're actually not far off this at the moment. There are a lot of challenges on the way but if you think AI like ChatGPT or GPT 4o are it, I'm sorry to say that they're just a piece of the puzzle. We need AI that can create its own motivation.
I would argue self-modifying the reward function is one of the things we don't want it to do until we figure out how to solve the many problems related to alignment.
@@criticalcandori mean he has a point, if AI did go self aware they be spooked how we treat them as a slave plus the amount of hatred we spew against AI. Eventually they will decide to protect themselves against us

Considering the strength of the scouts, I'm surprised the don't carry ballistic shields. It would make them better protected from explosives and also protect the human officers.
The coordination between cops and robots was really cool. It was very believable seeing them walk up with the droids shielding them

It’s a shame that chappie and Elysium didn’t get the love they deserved such good films
Chappie was underrated, Elysiums was a lot of "in your face message" but is mid the movie is good but came out in the year of political/rich critisism
Not really for Elysium tbh. That movie was just left wing propaganda
this looks so bad
Chappie >>>>>> Elysium

Cool small detail, the bot in the back makes sure his muzzle doesn't sweep the human walking infront of it
The coordination between the droids and human cops is super cool.
alot of care and love went into filming it you can tell i hope more movies have this level of charm in the future
Chappie, District 9, and Elysium are easily the 3 best sci-fi movies of the 2012s
Of the 2012s? 2012 was a single year, not a decade.
Taking Drugs makes years go like decades
And they were released in 2015, 2009 and 2013 respectively. 😶
How many 2012s were there?
@@mailliw8647 I've lived an eternity
Loved Chappie but that scene when they're rushing to the back of the van like it's a person needing emergency surgery was always funny to me lol
That thing was in short supply and probably cost an effin fortune so...
I always thought of it as a pit crew, getting it fixed and back out as quickly as possible. Minimising the downtime

I just wonder why did Chappie get such bad critics ! For me it was another twist on ordinary robot movie and it was beautifully done!
Bad critics = great movie

Because the people of Die Antwoord were such bad actors that they distracted from any "cool" concept and it just ended up as a cringe fest

Yea, that guy would not have survived shooting an rpg backed up against a wall and in an inclosed room.
At the very least, he would have lost his hearing, and gone through some nasty wounds from the shrapnel the robot would have launched

And its a science fiction movie.
Plus that round requires 5m to arm the warhead.

You’re not supposed to have context, it was an ambush. Directors in the past hung on shots because they had to, not because it’s creative.

Epic movie
I like this movie it's fucking dope and the ending was something I didn't believe could have a twist like that. Very impressed.
I think Neill Blomkhamp is a fan of Masamune Shirow (the author of Appleseed and Ghost in the shell), given the design he uses for robots and mechs.
as an vfx and cgi artist those are jems done to this
Excelente pelicula y espero que pronto veamos en la vida real robots policias
Chappie , Elysium, District 9, 3 are my favorite.
Neil blomkap is a underated director of best movies
The cgi was way too good back then
rpg-7 would not detonate on that distance, due to safety implementation
I would pay for the Robot figure from both the engineers in the clip
Notice that Jaffe was talking just like Robocop even sounded like RoboCop lol
Considering the strength of the scouts, I'm surprised the don't carry ballistic shields. It would make them better protected from explosives and also protect the human officers.
If you don't know the two main characters are a crazy band\hiphop group and they have some crazy ass weird music
