That story he told about that little girl in the accident always gets to me. Cause anyone would feel anger at you being saved over someone who could’ve had a chance but was bypassed cause of odds on survival. Cause us humans would save that little girl first even if she had a 2% chance and come back for the guy with a bigger chance.
Definitely one of those movies that I saw young enough and before knowing that other people dislike it so much that I love it. I love any thing that takes place in Chicago and not LA or New York tbf
I remember back in 2007 this movie was on literally every day at 7 pm on FX for like a year or more even. As a 14 year old did I watch it every single day? You bet I did.

Great reaction. Been catching up on your back catalog. I loved watching you guys guess on this one it was funny sounded just like me when I watched it the first time.
The series of books by Isaac Asimov were started in the 1950s and were even more extreme than the movie. A human-looking robot becomes president of the world. Asimov correctly predicted many things concerning technology in the future including the internet, cell phones, AI and many many more. He was not only a great author, but also a professor and scientist. Also, Sonny was voiced by Alan Tudyk. Wash from "Firefly", he was in "A Knights Tale" and a whole lot more!
Great to see you guys react to this! Love this movie. The scene in the tunnel is incredible with surround sound, too. I have a pet theory that everyone who keeps trying to develop driverless cars, has seen the first part of this movie but didn't watch the rest of it x)
@@wiggitywow6236-- Half true. The antagonistic plot, i.e. the "protecting humanity by taking over their society" thing, is from the novelette "With Folded Hands," by Jack Williamson. (Later rewritten and expanded into *The Humanoids* .) The rest of it was, yes, adapted from various "Robot" stories by Asimov.
This is honestly one of my favorite movies of his super underrated in my opinion I remember my dad showing me this and I was so amazed by Sony not because he was just a cool robot but because, for once the robot itself wasn’t the big bad V.I.K.I is and it makes so much sense the literal brain would be the one causing issues. I also love the play on Hansel and Gretal and spooner being left bread crumbs and omg I wanted a robot arm as a kid lol.
You know what makes this spookier? We're increasingly surrounded by 'smart' technology that can constantly easedrop and watch us without our knowledge, worse yet ai and deepfake is starting to become advanced enough to modify video the same way we can use photoshop on a picture. But anyway still a fun scifi action flick!
One of your best reactions! You caught how important the story of Sarah was, most reactors didn't even include it. You guys are great. I also never caught the significance of the one-sided arm raises before. Great job!
Something to think about, after Sonny leaps away after throwing Spooner to the floor, the rest of the bots started walking towards him asking if he needed help, despite being ordered not to move. Also, A.I with Jude Law and Haley Joel Osment is a stellar bot movie. Love you guys.
If you love Asimov you gotta appreciate the movie showing all 3 conflicts between the laws. The one you pointed out, the one at the start of the same scene where it really does follow his order to stay still while he shoots it in the head, and of course the heartbreaking one where the older generation throw themselves at the remote controlled ones to save him and let him escape. People forget about the third law but the fact that robots actively DON'T WANT TO DIE gives these moments so much more pathos :(
I agree with Spooner. I would’ve saved the child first. Children should always come first. I would then try to save him once the kid was safe, but he’s right, that was someone’s baby and a human being would know. Thankfully Sonny showed Spooner that he was capable of making the right choice instead of the logical choice.
The intro of this movie when it came out, made me look at Will Smith in a completely different way. He was always goofy to me before that, but that body in this movie, with that face......OMG 😮🥴 ❤
4:30 - THE GIRL WHO FELL FROM THE SKY - On her debut tandem parachute jump, an Australian girl fell 4,000 ft when her chute didn't deploy properly. She not only survived, she is walking today.

Yet, some of us have become monsters. Plus, we get our fears from our own self reflection. That's all we have seen, so we fear it. I believe we do the same thing with the possibility of alien life existing. If they are real, we fear it because the only example we have is what we have done in the past. Horrible things. We fear ourselves in a way.
This movie was based on a book published in 1950 by Isaac Asimov, same title as the movie. That's more scary because at that time it was like a premonition of what the world would become.
TECHNICALLY... There is no one STORY called "I, Robot". The book "I, Robot" is instead an anthology of all the Robot stories that Isaac Asimov had written up to that point - at least the ones he wanted to maintain in the same "universe". I seem to recall there were 1 or 2 very short stories that were "one-offs" that didn't quite work with the timeline, so he didn't include them in that first anthology. The earliest of those stories was written in the late 30s-early 40s. So the Robot stories from Asimov began nearly 100 years ago! The man was truly a visionary. And - believe it or not - his fiction stories are NOT the majority of his written works! His NON-fiction science articles and books edge out his fiction in terms of words written! Isaac Asimov was INCREDIBLY prolific.
